1 When the riot was over, Paul sent for the disciples, encouraged them, said good-bye, and left for the province of Macedonia.
2 He traveled through that region with a message of encouragement. When he came to Greece,
3 he stayed for three months. Because the Jews hatched a plot against Paul as he was about to sail for Syria, he decided instead to return through Macedonia.
4 He was accompanied by Sopater, Pyrrhus’ son from Beroea, Aristarchus and Secundus from Thessalonica, Gaius from Derbe, Timothy, and Tychicus and Trophimus from the province of Asia.
5 They went on ahead and waited for us in Troas.
