Acts 21
1 When we had gone away from them and set sail, we took a straight course to the city of Cos, and the next day to the city of Rhodes, and from there to the city of Patara.
Cum autem factum esset ut navigaremus abstracti ab eis, recto cursu venimus Coum, et sequenti die Rhodum, et inde Pataram.
2 When we found a ship crossing over to Phoenicia, we went aboard and set sail.
Et cum invenissemus navem transfretantem in Phoenicen, ascendentes navigavimus.
3 After sighting Cyprus, leaving it on the left side of the boat, we sailed on to Syria and landed at Tyre, where the ship was to unload its cargo.
Cum apparuissemus autem Cypro, relinquentes eam ad sinistram, navigavimus in Syriam, et venimus Tyrum: ibi enim navis expositura erat onus.
4 After we found the disciples, we stayed there seven days. Through the Spirit they kept urging Paul not to go to Jerusalem.
Inventis autem discipulis, mansimus ibi diebus septem: qui Paulo dicebant per Spiritum ne ascenderet Ierosolymam.
5 When our days there were over, we left and went on our way, and they all, with their wives and children, accompanied out of the city. Then we knelt down on the beach, prayed,
Et expletis diebus profecti ibamus, deducentibus nos omnibus cum uxoribus, et filiis usque foras civitatem: et positis genibus in littore, oravimus.
6 and said farewell to each other. Then we went on board the ship, and they returned home.
Et cum valefecissemus invicem, ascendimus navem: illi autem redierunt in sua.
7 When we had finished the voyage from Tyre, we arrived at Ptolemais. There we greeted the brothers and stayed with them for one day.
Nos vero navigatione expleta a Tyro descendimus Ptolemaidam: et salutatis fratribus, mansimus die una apud illos.
8 On the next day we left and went to Caesarea. We entered the house of Philip, the evangelist, who was one of the seven, and we stayed with him.
Alia autem die profecti, venimus Caesaream. Et intrantes domum Philippi evangelistae, qui erat unus de septem, mansimus apud eum.
9 Now this man had four virgin daughters who prophesied.
Huic autem erant quattuor filiae virgines prophetantes.
10 As we stayed there for some days, there came down from Judea a certain prophet named Agabus.
Et cum moraremur per dies aliquot, supervenit quidam vir a Iudaea propheta, nomine Agabus.
11 He came to us and took Paul's belt. With it he tied his own feet and hands and said, “Thus says the Holy Spirit, 'So shall the Jews in Jerusalem tie up the man who owns this belt, and they will hand him over into the hands of the Gentiles.'”
Is cum venisset ad nos, tulit zonam Pauli: et alligans sibi pedes, et manus dixit: Haec dicit Spiritus sanctus: Virum, cuius est zona haec, sic alligabunt in Ierusalem Iudaei, et tradent in manus Gentium.
12 When we heard these things, both we and the people who lived in that place begged Paul not to go up to Jerusalem.
Quod cum audissemus, rogabamus nos, et qui loci illius erant, ne ascenderet Ierosolymam.
13 Then Paul answered, “What are you doing, weeping and breaking my heart? For I am ready, not only to be tied up, but also to die in Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus.”
Tunc respondit Paulus, et dixit: Quid facitis flentes, et affligentes cor meum? Ego enim non solum alligari, sed et mori in Ierusalem paratus sum propter nomen Domini Iesu.
14 Since Paul did not wish to be persuaded, we stopped trying and said, “May the will of the Lord be done.”
Et cum ei suadere non possemus, quievimus, dicentes: Domini voluntas fiat.
15 After these days, we picked up our bags and went up to Jerusalem.
Post dies autem istos praeparati, ascendebamus in Ierusalem.
16 There also went with us some of the disciples from Caesarea. They brought with them a man named Mnason, a man from Cyprus, an early disciple, with whom we would stay.
Venerunt autem quidam ex discipulis a Caesarea nobiscum, adducentes secum apud quem hospitaremur Iasonem quendam Cyprium, antiquum discipulum.
17 When we had arrived in Jerusalem, the brothers welcomed us gladly.
Et cum venissemus Ierosolymam, libenter exceperunt nos fratres.
18 The next day Paul went with us to James, and all the elders were present.
Sequenti autem die introibat Paulus nobiscum ad Iacobum, omnesque collecti sunt seniores.
19 When he had greeted them, he reported one by one the things that God had done among the Gentiles through his ministry.
Quos cum salutasset, narrabat per singula, quae Deus fecisset in Gentibus per ministerium ipsius.
20 When they heard it, they praised God, and they said to him, “You see, brother, how many thousands have believed among the Jews. They are all determined to keep the law.
At illi cum audissent, magnificabant Deum, dixeruntque ei: Vides frater, quot millia sunt in Iudaeis, qui crediderunt, et omnes aemulatores sunt legis.
21 They have been told about you, that you teach all the Jews who live among the Gentiles to abandon Moses, and that you tell them not to circumcise their children, and not to follow the old customs.
Audierunt autem de te quia discessionem doceas a Moyse eorum, qui per Gentes sunt, Iudaeorum: dicens non debere eos circumcidere filios suos, neque secundum consuetudinem ingredi.
22 What should we do? They will certainly hear that you have come.
Quid ergo est? utique oportet convenire multitudinem: audient enim te supervenisse.
23 So do what we say to you. We have four men who made a vow.
Hoc ergo fac quod tibi dicimus: Sunt nobis viri quattuor, votum habentes super se.
24 Take these men and purify yourself with them, and pay their expenses for them, so that they may shave their heads. So everyone will know that the things they have been told about you are false. They will learn that you also follow the law.
His assumptis, sanctifica te cum illis: et impende in illis ut radant capita: et scient omnes quia quae de te audierunt, falsa sunt, sed ambulas et ipse custodiens legem.
25 But concerning the Gentiles who have believed, we wrote and gave the instructions that they should keep themselves from things sacrificed to idols, from blood, from what is strangled, and from sexual immorality.”
De his autem, qui crediderunt ex Gentibus, nos scripsimus iudicantes ut abstineant se ab idolis, immolato, et sanguine, et suffocato, et fornicatione.
26 Then Paul took the men, and the next day, purifying himself with them, went into the temple, announcing the period of the days of purification, until the offering was offered for every one of them.
Tunc Paulus, assumptis viris, postera die purificatus cum illis intravit in templum, annuncians expletionem dierum purificationis, donec offerretur pro unoquoque eorum oblatio.
27 When the seven days were almost finished, some Jews from Asia, seeing Paul in the temple, stirred up the whole crowd, and laid hands on him.
Dum autem septem dies consummarentur, hi, qui de Asia erant, Iudaei, cum vidissent eum in templo, concitaverunt omnem populum, et iniecerunt ei manus, clamantes:
28 They were shouting, “Men of Israel, help us. This is the man who teaches all men everywhere things that are against the people, the law, and this place. Besides, he has also brought Greeks into the temple and has defiled this holy place.”
Viri Israelitae, adiuvate: hic est homo, qui adversus populum, et legem, et locum hunc, omnes ubique docens, insuper et Gentiles induxit in templum, et violavit sanctum locum istum.
29 For they had previously seen Trophimus the Ephesian with him in the city, and they thought that Paul had brought him into the temple.
Viderant enim Throphimum Ephesium in civitate cum ipso, quem aestimaverunt quoniam in templum introduxisset Paulus.
30 All the city was excited, and the people ran together and laid hold of Paul. They dragged him out of the temple, and the doors were immediately shut.
Commotaque est civitas tota, et facta est concursio populi. Et apprehendentes Paulum, trahebant eum extra templum: et statim clausae sunt ianuae.
31 As they were trying to kill him, news came up to the chief captain of the guard that all Jerusalem was in an uproar.
Quaerentibus autem eum occidere, nunciatum est tribuno cohortis: Quia tota confunditur Ierusalem.
32 Right away he took soldiers and centurions and ran down to the crowd. When the people saw the chief captain and the soldiers, they stopped beating Paul.
Qui statim assumptis militibus, et centurionibus, decurrit ad illos. Qui cum vidissent tribunum, et milites, cessaverunt percutere Paulum.
33 Then the chief captain approached and laid hold of Paul, and commanded him to be bound with two chains. Then he asked who he was and what he had done.
Tunc accedens tribunus apprehendit eum, et iussit eum alligari catenis duabus: et interrogabat quis esset, et quid fecisset.
34 Some in the crowd were shouting one thing and others another. Since the captain could not tell anything because of all the noise, he ordered that Paul be brought into the fortress.
Alii autem aliud clamabant in turba. Et cum non posset certum cognoscere prae tumultu, iussit duci eum in castra.
35 When he came to the steps, he was carried by the soldiers because of the crowd's violence.
Et cum venisset ad gradus, contigit ut portaretur a militibus propter vim populi.
36 For the crowd of people followed after and kept shouting out, “Away with him!”
Sequebatur enim multitudo populi, clamans: Tolle eum.
37 As Paul was about to be brought into the fortress, he said to the chief captain, “May I say something to you?” The captain said, “Do you speak Greek?
Et cum coepisset induci in castra Paulus, dicit tribuno: Si licet mihi loqui aliquid ad te? Qui dixit ei: Graece nosti?
38 Are you not then the Egyptian, who previously led a rebellion and led the four thousand men of the 'Assassins' out into the wilderness?”
Nonne tu es Aegyptius, qui ante hos dies tumultum concitasti, et eduxisti in desertum quattuor millia virorum sicariorum?
39 Paul said, “I am a Jew, from the city of Tarsus in Cilicia. I am a citizen of an important city. I ask you, allow me to speak to the people.”
Et dixit ad eum Paulus: Ego homo sum quidem Iudaeus a Tarso Ciliciae, non ignotae civitatis municeps. Rogo autem te, permitte mihi loqui ad populum.
40 When the captain had given him permission, Paul stood on the steps and motioned with the hand to the people. When there was a deep silence, he spoke to them in the Hebrew language. He said,
Et cum ille permisisset, Paulus stans in gradibus, annuit manu ad plebem, et magno silentio facto, allocutus est lingua Hebraea, dicens:
