Acts 21:10-14 ▼

10 As we were staying there for some days, a prophet named Agabus came down from Judea.

11 And coming to us, he took Paul's belt and bound his own feet and hands, and said, |This is what the Holy Spirit says: 'In this way the Jews at Jerusalem will bind the man who owns this belt and deliver him into the hands of the Gentiles.'|

12 When we had heard this, we as well as the local residents [began] begging him not to go up to Jerusalem.

13 Then Paul answered, |What are you doing, weeping and breaking my heart? For I am ready not only to be bound, but even to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus.|

14 And since he would not be persuaded, we fell silent, remarking, |The will of the Lord be done!|
