Acts 21:1-9 ▼

1 After we were parted from them, and clear of land, we made directly for Cos, the next day to Rhodes, and from thence to Patara:

2 where finding a vessel bound to Phoenicia, we went aboard, and put off.

3 having made Cyprus, leaving it to the North, we took our course to Syria, and landed at Tyre, where the ship was to unlade her cargo.

4 we staid seven days with the disciples we met there: who told Paul from the holy spirit, that he should not go to Jerusalem.

5 that time being ended, we departed, being conducted by them in a body with the women and children quite out of the city, where we kneeled down on the shore, and prayed.

6 then having taken our leave of one another, we embark'd and they went home.

7 From Tyre we sail'd to Ptolemais, which ended our voyage, we saluted the brethren there, and staid a day with them.

8 on the morrow we set out, and arriv'd at Cesarea, and went to the house of Philip the evangelist, with whom we lodg'd:

9 he was one of the seven deacons, and had four daughters all virgins, prophetesses.
