10 While we remained there for a number of days, a prophet named Agabus came down from Judea.

11 He came to us, took Paul's belt, tied his own hands and feet with it, and said, |The Holy Spirit says this: 'This is the way the Jews in Jerusalem will tie up the man whose belt this is, and will hand him over to the Gentiles.'|

12 When we heard this, both we and the local people begged him not to go up to Jerusalem.

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

14 Because he could not be persuaded, we said no more except, |The Lord's will be done.|
