The Acts 21:1-7 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

1. We all said good-bye to them and left. We sailed straight to Cos island. The next day, we reached Rhodes, and from Rhodes we went to Patara.

2. There we found a ship that was going to Phoenicia. We went aboard and sailed away.

3. We sailed near the island of Cyprus. We could see it to the north, but we sailed on to Syria. We stopped at Tyre because the ship needed to unload its cargo there.

4. We found some followers in Tyre, and we stayed with them for seven days. Through the Holy Spirit they warned Paul not to go to Jerusalem.

5. When we finished our visit, we left and continued our trip. All the followers, even the women and children, came outside the city with us. We all knelt down on the beach and prayed.

6. Then we said good-bye and got on the ship. The followers went back home.

7. We continued our trip from Tyre and arrived at Ptolemais. We greeted the believers there and stayed with them for a day.
