Priscilla, Aquila, and Apollos
18 And Paul, having remained many days longer, (A)took leave of (B)the brothers and put out to sea for (C)Syria, and with him were (D)Priscilla and (E)Aquila. In (F)Cenchreae [a]he (G)had his hair cut, for he was keeping a vow. 19 And they arrived at (H)Ephesus, and he left them there. Now he himself entered (I)the synagogue and reasoned with the Jews. 20 When they asked him to stay for a longer time, he did not consent, 21 but (J)taking leave of them and saying, “I will return to you again (K)if God wills,” he set sail from (L)Ephesus.

Evangelical Heritage Version
Return to Antioch in Syria
18 After Paul stayed many more days, he said good-bye to the brothers and sailed for Syria, accompanied by Priscilla and Aquila. At Cenchrea Paul had his head shaved, because he was keeping a vow.
19 Next they arrived at Ephesus, where he left Priscilla and Aquila. Paul himself went into the synagogue and led a discussion with the Jews. 20 When they asked him to stay for a longer time, he declined. 21 But as he said good-bye, he told them,[a] “I will come back to you again if it is God’s will.” Then he set sail from Ephesus.
