保罗上耶路撒冷
我们离别了众人，就开船直航到哥士，第二天到了罗底，又从那里到帕大喇。
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:
2我们遇见一只船要往腓尼基去，就上船起航。And finding a ship sailing over unto Phenicia, we went aboard, and set forth.
3我们望见塞浦路斯，就从南边行过，往叙利亚去，在推罗上岸，因为船要在那里卸货。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.
4我们在那里找到了一些门徒，就住了七天。他们藉着圣灵的感动，告诉保罗不要上耶路撒冷去。And finding disciples, we tarried there seven days: who said to Paul through the Spirit, that he should not go up to Jerusalem.
5几天之后，我们又出发前行。他们众人同妻子儿女都送我们到城外，我们都跪在滩上祷告，彼此辞别。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.
6我们上了船，他们就回家去了。And when we had taken our leave one of another, we took ship; and they returned home again.
7我们从推罗行完航程，来到了多利买，问候那里的弟兄，和他们同住了一天。And when we had finished our course from Tyre, we came to Ptolemais, and saluted the brethren, and abode with them one day.
8第二天，我们离开那里，来到凯撒利亚，就进了传福音的腓利家里，和他同住；他是那七个执事里的一个。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.
9他有四个女儿，都是未出嫁的，都会说预言。And the same man had four daughters, virgins, which did prophesy.
10我们在那里多住了好几天，有一个先知，名叫亚迦布，从犹太下来。And as we tarried there many days, there came down from Judaea a certain prophet, named Agabus.
11他到了我们这里，就拿保罗的腰带，捆上自己的手脚，说：“圣灵这样说：‘犹太人在耶路撒冷要如此捆绑这腰带的主人，把他交在外邦人手里。’”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.
12我们听见这些话，就跟当地的人苦劝保罗不要上耶路撒冷去。And when we heard these things, both we, and they of that place, besought him not to go up to Jerusalem.
13于是保罗回答：“你们为什么这样痛哭，使我心碎呢？我为主耶稣的名，不但被人捆绑，就是死在耶路撒冷也是愿意的。”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.
14既然保罗不听劝，我们就住了口，只说：“愿主的旨意成就。”And when he would not be persuaded, we ceased, saying, The will of the Lord be done.
15过了这几天，我们收拾行李上耶路撒冷去。And after those days we took up our carriages, and went up to Jerusalem.
16有凯撒利亚的几个门徒和我们同去，带我们到一个早期的门徒塞浦路斯人拿孙的家里，请我们与他同住。保罗访问雅各
There went with us also certain of the disciples of Caesarea, and brought with them one Mnason of Cyprus, an old disciple, with whom we should lodge.
17我们到了耶路撒冷，弟兄们欢欢喜喜地接待我们。And when we were come to Jerusalem, the brethren received us gladly.
18第二天，保罗同我们去见雅各；所有的长老也都在场。And the day following Paul went in with us unto James; and all the elders were present.
19保罗向他们问安，然后将神用他在外邦人中所做的事奉，一一述说了。And when he had saluted them, he declared particularly what things God had wrought among the Gentiles by his ministry.
20他们听见了，就归荣耀给神，对保罗说：“弟兄，你看犹太人中有数以万计的信徒，而他们都是热心于律法的人。And when they heard it, they glorified the Lord, and said unto him, Thou seest, brother, how many thousands of Jews there are which believe; and they are all zealous of the law:
21他们曾听见人说，你教导所有在外邦的犹太人离弃摩西，对他们说，不要给孩子行割礼，也不要遵守规矩。And they are informed of thee, that thou teachest all the Jews which are among the Gentiles to forsake Moses, saying that they ought not to circumcise their children, neither to walk after the customs.
22众人必听见你来了，这可怎么办呢？What is it therefore? the multitude must needs come together: for they will hear that thou art come.
23你就照着我们的话做吧！我们这里有四个人，都有愿在身。Do therefore this that we say to thee: We have four men which have a vow on them;
24你带他们去，与他们一同行洁净的礼，替他们缴纳规费，让他们得以剃头。这样，众人就会知道，先前所听见关于你的事都是假的；而且也知道，你自己为人循规蹈矩，遵行律法。Them take, and purify thyself with them, and be at charges with them, that they may shave their heads: and all may know that those things, whereof they were informed concerning thee, are nothing; but that thou thyself also walkest orderly, and keepest the law.
25至于信主的外邦人，☛有古卷加“他们没有什么可控告你。”我们已经根据我们的决议写信，叫他们要禁戒偶像所玷污的东西、血和勒死的牲畜，禁戒淫乱。”As touching the Gentiles which believe, we have written and concluded that they observe no such thing, save only that they keep themselves from things offered to idols, and from blood, and from strangled, and from fornication.
26于是保罗带着那四个人，第二天与他们一同行了洁净礼，进了圣殿，报告洁净期满的日子，等候祭司为他们各人献上祭物。保罗在圣殿里被捕
Then Paul took the men, and the next day purifying himself with them entered into the temple, to signify the accomplishment of the days of purification, until that an offering should be offered for every one of them.
27那七日将完，从亚细亚来的犹太人看见保罗在圣殿里，就煽动所有的群众，下手拿住他，And when the seven days were almost ended, the Jews which were of Asia, when they saw him in the temple, stirred up all the people, and laid hands on him,
28喊着：“以色列人哪，来帮忙！这就是在各处教导众人糟蹋我们百姓、律法和这地方的人。不但如此，他还带了希腊人进圣殿，污秽了这圣地。”Crying out, Men of Israel, help: This is the man, that teacheth all men every where against the people, and the law, and this place: and further brought Greeks also into the temple, and hath polluted this holy place.
29这话是因他们曾看见以弗所人特罗非摩跟保罗一起在城里，以为保罗带他进了圣殿。(For they had seen before with him in the city Trophimus an Ephesian, whom they supposed that Paul had brought into the temple.)
30于是全城都骚动，百姓一齐跑来，拿住保罗，拉他出圣殿，殿门立刻都关了。And all the city was moved, and the people ran together: and they took Paul, and drew him out of the temple: and forthwith the doors were shut.
31他们正想要杀他，有人报信给营里的千夫长，说耶路撒冷全城都乱了。And as they went about to kill him, tidings came unto the chief captain of the band, that all Jerusalem was in an uproar.
32千夫长立刻带着士兵和几个百夫长，跑下去到他们那里。他们见了千夫长和士兵，就停下来不打保罗。Who immediately took soldiers and centurions, and ran down unto them: and when they saw the chief captain and the soldiers, they left beating of Paul.
33于是千夫长上前拿住他，吩咐用两条铁链捆锁，又问他是什么人，做了什么事。Then the chief captain came near, and took him, and commanded him to be bound with two chains; and demanded who he was, and what he had done.
34群众中有的喊这个，有的喊那个；因为这样乱嚷，千夫长无法知道实情，就下令将保罗带进营楼去。And some cried one thing, some another, among the multitude: and when he could not know the certainty for the tumult, he commanded him to be carried into the castle.
35保罗一走上台阶，群众挤得凶猛，士兵只得将保罗抬起来。And when he came upon the stairs, so it was, that he was borne of the soldiers for the violence of the people.
36一群人跟在后面，喊着：“除掉他！”保罗为自己辩护
For the multitude of the people followed after, crying, Away with him.
37保罗快要被带进营楼时，对千夫长说：“我可以对你说句话吗？”千夫长说：“你懂得希腊话吗？And as Paul was to be led into the castle, he said unto the chief captain, May I speak unto thee? Who said, Canst thou speak Greek?
38那你就不是从前作乱、带领四千凶徒往旷野去的那埃及人了。”Art not thou that Egyptian, which before these days madest an uproar, and leddest out into the wilderness four thousand men that were murderers?
39保罗说：“我本是犹太人，生在基利家的大数，并不是无名小城的公民。求你准我对百姓说话。”But Paul said, I am a man which am a Jew of Tarsus, a city in Cilicia, a citizen of no mean city: and, I beseech thee, suffer me to speak unto the people.
40千夫长准了。保罗就站在台阶上，向百姓做了个手势，要他们静下来，保罗就用希伯来话对他们说：And when he had given him licence, Paul stood on the stairs, and beckoned with the hand unto the people. And when there was made a great silence, he spake unto them in the Hebrew tongue, saying,
