Acts 18:18-23

English Standard Version

Paul Returns to Antioch

¹⁸ After this, Paul stayed many days longer and then took leave of ^(A)the brothers^[a] and set sail for Syria, and with him ^(B)Priscilla and Aquila. At ^(C)Cenchreae ^(D)he had cut his hair, for he was under a vow. ¹⁹ And they came to ^(E)Ephesus, and he left them there, but ^(F)he himself went into the synagogue and reasoned with the Jews. ²⁰ When they asked him to stay for a longer period, he declined. ²¹ But on taking leave of them he said, “I will return to you ^(G)if God wills,” and he set sail from Ephesus.

²² When he had landed at Caesarea, he ^(H)went up and greeted the church, and then went down to Antioch. ²³ After spending some time there, he departed and ^(I)went from one place to the next through the region of Galatia and Phrygia, ^(J)strengthening all the disciples.
