Acts 21:8-13

English Standard Version

⁸ On the next day we departed and came to Caesarea, and we entered the house of ^(A)Philip ^(B)the evangelist, who was one of the seven, and stayed with him. ⁹ He had four unmarried daughters, ^(C)who prophesied. ¹⁰ While we were staying for many days, a prophet named ^(D)Agabus came down from Judea. ¹¹ And coming to us, he ^(E)took Paul's belt and bound his own feet and hands and said, ^(F)“Thus says the Holy Spirit, ^(G)‘This is how the Jews^[a] at Jerusalem will bind the man who owns this belt and ^(H)deliver him into the hands of the Gentiles.’” ¹² When we heard this, we and the people there ^(I)urged him not to go up to Jerusalem. ¹³ Then Paul answered, ^(J)“What are you doing, weeping and breaking my heart? For ^(K)I am ready not only to be imprisoned but even to die in Jerusalem ^(L)for the name of the Lord Jesus.”
