Acts 21:10-14
English Standard Version
10 While we were staying for many days, a prophet named (A)Agabus came down from Judea. 11 And coming to us, he (B)took Paul's belt and bound his own feet and hands and said, (C)“Thus says the Holy Spirit, (D)‘This is how the Jews[a] at Jerusalem will bind the man who owns this belt and (E)deliver him into the hands of the Gentiles.’” 12 When we heard this, we and the people there (F)urged him not to go up to Jerusalem. 13 Then Paul answered, (G)“What are you doing, weeping and breaking my heart? For (H)I am ready not only to be imprisoned but even to die in Jerusalem (I)for the name of the Lord Jesus.” 14 And since he would not be persuaded, (J)we ceased and said, (K)“Let the will of the Lord be done.”

Acts 21:10-14
New International Version
10 After we had been there a number of days, a prophet named Agabus(A) came down from Judea. 11 Coming over to us, he took Paul’s belt, tied his own hands and feet with it and said, “The Holy Spirit says,(B) ‘In this way the Jewish leaders in Jerusalem will bind(C) the owner of this belt and will hand him over to the Gentiles.’”(D)
12 When we heard this, we and the people there pleaded with Paul not to go up to Jerusalem. 13 Then Paul answered, “Why are you weeping and breaking my heart? I am ready not only to be bound, but also to die(E) in Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus.”(F) 14 When he would not be dissuaded, we gave up(G) and said, “The Lord’s will be done.”(H)
