Acts 21:12 in Context — Acts 21

10 Y parando nosotros allí por muchos días, descendió de Judea un profeta, llamado Agabo;

11 Y venido á nosotros, tomó el cinto de Pablo, y atándose los pies y las manos, dijo: Esto dice el Espíritu Santo: Así atarán los Judíos en Jerusalem al varón cuyo es este cinto, y le entregarán en manos de los Gentiles.

12 Lo cual como oímos, le rogamos nosotros y los de aquel lugar, que no subiese á Jerusalem.

13 Entonces Pablo respondió: ¿Qué hacéis llorando y afligiéndome el corazón? porque yo no sólo estoy presto á ser atado, mas aun á morir en Jerusalem por el nombre del Señor Jesús.

14 Y como no le pudimos persuadir, desistimos, diciendo: Hágase la voluntad del Señor.
