Acts 21:9-19

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.
15 And after these days we were made ready [Soothly after these days we made ready], and went up to Jerusalem.
16 And some of the disciples came with us from Caesarea, and led with them a man [and led with them some man], Jason of Cyprus, an old disciple, at whom we should be harboured.
17 And when we came to Jerusalem, brethren received us willfully.
18 And in the day following Paul entered with us to James, and all the elder men were gathered.
19 Which when he had greeted [Whom when he had greeted], he told by all things, what [things] God had done in heathen men, by the ministry of him.
