¹⁰ After we had been there for a number of days, a prophet named Agabus arrived from Judea. ¹¹ During his visit he took Paul’s belt and tied his own feet and hands with it. Then he said, “The Holy Spirit says, ‘This is how the Jews in Jerusalem will tie up the man who owns this belt. Then they will hand him over to people who are not Jewish.’ ”

¹² When we heard this, we and the believers who lived there begged Paul not to go to Jerusalem.
