21 Now after these events Paul resolved in the Spirit ^uto pass through ^vMacedonia and Achaia and ^wgo to Jerusalem, saying, “After I have been there, ^xI must also see Rome.” 22 And having sent into Macedonia two of ^yhis helpers, ^zTimothy and Erastus, he himself stayed in Asia ^afor a while.

1 After the uproar ceased, Paul sent for the disciples, and after encouraging them, he said farewell and ^qdeparted for Macedonia. 2 When he had gone through those regions and had given them much encouragement, he came to Greece. 3 There he spent three months, and when ^ra plot was made against him by the Jews¹ as he was about to set sail for Syria, he decided to return through Macedonia. 4 Sopater the Berean, son of Pyrrhus, accompanied him; and of the Thessalonians, ^sAristarchus and Secundus; and ^sGaius of Derbe, and ^tTimothy; and the Asians, ^uTychicus and ^vTrophimus. 5 These went on ahead and were waiting for ^wus at ^xTroas, 6 but we sailed away from Philippi after ^ythe days of Unleavened Bread, and in five days we came to them at Troas, where we stayed for seven days.
