Acts 21:7-14 - Paul In Caesarea

⁷ After we had made the run from Tyre, we landed at Ptolemais, and exchanged greetings with the Brethren there, and spent a day with them. ⁸ The next day we left, and reached Caesarea, where we went to the house of Philip, the Missionary, who was one of 'the Seven,' and stayed with him. ⁹ He had four unmarried daughters, who had the gift of prophecy.

¹⁰ During our visit, which lasted several days, a Prophet, named Agabus, came down from Judea. ¹¹ He came to see us, and, taking Paul's girdle, and binding his own feet and hands with it, said: "This is what the Holy Spirit says--'The man to whom this girdle belongs will be bound like this at Jerusalem by the Jews, and they will give him up to the Gentiles'." ¹² When we heard that, we and the people of the place began to entreat Paul not to go up to Jerusalem.

¹³ It was then that Paul made the reply: "Why are you weeping and breaking my heart like this? For my part, I am ready not only to be bound, but even to suffer death at Jerusalem for the Name of the Lord Jesus."

¹⁴ So, as he would not be persuaded, we said no more to him, only adding--"The Lord's will be done."
