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.
