When we heard this, both we and the people of the place begged Paul not to go up to Jerusalem.
In context
10During the several days we were there, a prophet named Agabus came down from Judea. 11He came to us, took Paul’s belt, tied up his own feet and hands and said, “This is what the Holy Spirit says: ‘The man who owns this belt — so will the Jews in Jerusalem bind him, and hand him over to the Gentiles.’” 12When we heard this, both we and the people of the place begged Paul not to go up to Jerusalem. 13Then Paul answered, “What are you doing, weeping and breaking my heart? I am ready not only to be bound but to die in Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus.” 14Since he would not be persuaded, we gave up and said, “Let the Lord’s will be done.”
