15 And sailing from thence, we came the following day over against Chios; and the next day we touched at Samos; and [a]the day after we came to Miletus. 16 For Paul had determined to sail past Ephesus, that he might not have to spend time in Asia; for he was hastening, if it were possible for him, to be at Jerusalem the day of Pentecost.
17 And from Miletus he sent to Ephesus, and called to him the [b]elders of the church.
