18 Now Paul, when he had remained many days longer, (A)took leave of (B)the brothers and sisters and sailed away to (C)Syria, and (D)Priscilla and (E)Aquila were with him. [a]Paul first (F)had his hair cut at (G)Cenchrea, for he was keeping a vow. 19 They came to (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)took leave of them and said, “I will return to you again (K)if God wills,” and he set sail from (L)Ephesus.

  1. Acts 18:18 Lit Having had his hair cut

18 And Paul, having tarried after this yet many days, took his leave of the brethren, and sailed thence for Syria, and with him Priscilla and Aquila: having shorn his head in Cenchreae; for he had a vow. 19 And they came to Ephesus, and he left them there: but he himself entered into the synagogue, and reasoned with the Jews. 20 And when they asked him to abide a longer time, he consented not; 21 but taking his leave of them, and saying, I will return again unto you if God will, he set sail from Ephesus.
