* And it came to pass , that after we were gotten from them , and had launched , we came with a straight course unto Coos , and the day following unto Rhodes , and from thence unto Patara : * And finding a ship sailing over unto Phenicia , we went aboard , and set forth . * Now when we had discovered Cyprus , we left it on the left hand , and sailed into Syria , and landed at Tyre : for there the ship was to unlade her burden . * And finding disciples , we tarried there seven days : who said to Paul through the Spirit , that he should not go up to Jerusalem . * And when we had accomplished those days , we departed and went our way ; and they all brought us on our way , with wives and children , till we were out of the city : and we kneeled down on the shore , and prayed . * And when we had taken our leave one of another , we took ship ; and they returned home again . * And when we had finished our course from Tyre , we came to Ptolemais , and saluted the brethren , and abode with them one day . * And the next day we that were of Paul 's company departed , and came unto Caesarea : and we entered into the house of Philip the evangelist , which was one of the seven ; and abode with him . * And the same man had four daughters , virgins , which did prophesy . * And as we tarried there many days , there came down from Judaea a certain prophet , named Agabus . * And when he was come unto us , he took Paul 's girdle , and bound his own hands and feet , and said , Thus saith the Holy Ghost , So shall the Jews at Jerusalem bind the man that owneth this girdle , and shall deliver him into the hands of the Gentiles . * And when we heard these things , both we , and they of that place , besought him not to go up to Jerusalem . * Then Paul answered , What mean ye to weep and to break mine heart ? for I am ready not to be bound only , but also to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus . * And when he would not be persuaded , we ceased , saying , The will of the Lord be done .
