Acts 21:7-14

Revised Geneva Translation

⁷ And when we had finished the voyage from Tyre, we arrived at Ptolemais, and greeted the brothers, and stayed with them for one day.

⁸ And the next day, Paul (and we who were with him) left and came to Caesarea. And we entered into the house of Philip the Evangelist (who was one of the seven) and stayed with him.

⁹ Now he had four virgin daughters who prophesied.

¹⁰ And as we remained there many days, a certain prophet named Agabus came from Judea.

¹¹ And when he had come to us, he took Paul’s belt, and bound his own hands and feet, and said, “Thus says the Holy Ghost, ‘So shall the Jews at Jerusalem bind the man that owns this belt, and shall deliver him into the hands of the Gentiles.’”

¹² And when we had heard these things, both we and the residents there begged him not to go up to Jerusalem.

¹³ Then Paul answered, and said, “Why are you weeping and breaking my heart? For I am ready, not only to be bound, but also to die at Jerusalem for the Name of the Lord Jesus.”

¹⁴ So when he would not be persuaded, we ceased, saying, “The will of the Lord be done.”
