While we remained there for a number of days, a prophet named Agabus came down from Judea.
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.’”
When we heard this, both we and the local people begged him not to go up to Jerusalem.
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.”
Because he could not be persuaded, we said no more except,“The Lord’s will be done.”
After these days we got ready and started up to Jerusalem.
Some of the disciples from Caesarea came along with us too, and brought us to the house of Mnason of Cyprus, a disciple from the earliest times, with whom we were to stay.
