Acts 21:4-14

4 And when we found disciples, we dwelled there seven days; which said by Spirit to Paul, that he should not go up to Jerusalem.
5 And when the days were filled [And the days fulfilled], we went forth, and all men with wives and children led forth us [till] without the city; and we kneeled in the sea brink, and we prayed.
6 And when we had made farewell together, we went up into the ship; and they turned again into their own places [soothly they turned again into their own things].
7 And when the ship sailing was filled from Tyre, we came down to Ptolemais, and when we had greeted well the brethren [and the brethren greeted well], we dwelled one day at them.
8 And another day we went forth, and came to Caesarea. And we entered into the house of Philip evangelist, that was one of the seven, and dwelled at him.
9 And to him were four daughters, virgins, that prophesied.
10 And when we dwelled there [by] some days, a prophet [some man prophet], Agabus by name, came over from Judaea.
11 This when he came to us, took the girdle of Paul, and bound together his feet and hands, and said, The Holy Ghost saith these things, Thus [the] Jews shall bind in Jerusalem the man, whose is this girdle; and they shall betake him into heathen men's hands.
12 Which thing when we heard, we prayed, and they that were of that place, that he should not go up to Jerusalem.
13 Then Paul answered, and said, What do ye, weeping and tormenting mine heart? For I am ready, not only to be bound, but also to die in Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus.
14 And when we might not counsel him, we were still, and said [saying], The will of the Lord be done.
