13 But he said, “Why all this weeping? You are breaking my heart! I am ready not only to be jailed at Jerusalem but even to die for the sake of the Lord Jesus.”
14 When it was clear that we couldn’t persuade him, we gave up and said, “The Lord’s will be done.”
15 After this we packed our things and left for Jerusalem.
16 Some believers from Caesarea accompanied us, and they took us to the home of Mnason, a man originally from Cyprus and one of the early believers.
17 When we arrived, the brothers and sisters in Jerusalem welcomed us warmly.
18 The next day Paul went with us to meet with James, and all the elders of the Jerusalem church were present.
19 After greeting them, Paul gave a detailed account of the things God had accomplished among the Gentiles through his ministry.
