Acts 20

GNT

1 μετὰ δὲ τὸ παύσασθαι τὸν θόρυβον μεταπεμψάμενος ὁ παῦλος τοὺς μαθητὰς καὶ παρακαλέσας, ἀσπασάμενος ἐξῆλθεν πορεύεσθαι εἰς μακεδονίαν.

2 διελθὼν δὲ τὰ μέρη ἐκεῖνα καὶ παρακαλέσας αὐτοὺς λόγῳ πολλῶ ἦλθεν εἰς τὴν ἑλλάδα,

3 ποιήσας τε μῆνας τρεῖς γενομένης ἐπιβουλῆς αὐτῶ ὑπὸ τῶν ἰουδαίων μέλλοντι ἀνάγεσθαι εἰς τὴν συρίαν ἐγένετο γνώμης τοῦ ὑποστρέφειν διὰ μακεδονίας.

4 συνείπετο δὲ αὐτῶ σώπατρος πύρρου βεροιαῖος, θεσσαλονικέων δὲ ἀρίσταρχος καὶ σεκοῦνδος, καὶ γάϊος δερβαῖος καὶ τιμόθεος, ἀσιανοὶ δὲ τυχικὸς καὶ τρόφιμος.

5 οὖτοι δὲ προελθόντες ἔμενον ἡμᾶς ἐν τρῳάδι·

6 ἡμεῖς δὲ ἐξεπλεύσαμεν μετὰ τὰς ἡμέρας τῶν ἀζύμων ἀπὸ φιλίππων, καὶ ἤλθομεν πρὸς αὐτοὺς εἰς τὴν τρῳάδα ἄχρι ἡμερῶν πέντε, ὅπου διετρίψαμεν ἡμέρας ἑπτά.

7 ἐν δὲ τῇ μιᾷ τῶν σαββάτων συνηγμένων ἡμῶν κλάσαι ἄρτον ὁ παῦλος διελέγετο αὐτοῖς, μέλλων ἐξιέναι τῇ ἐπαύριον, παρέτεινέν τε τὸν λόγον μέχρι μεσονυκτίου.

8 ἦσαν δὲ λαμπάδες ἱκαναὶ ἐν τῶ ὑπερῴῳ οὖ ἦμεν συνηγμένοι·

9 καθεζόμενος δέ τις νεανίας ὀνόματι εὔτυχος ἐπὶ τῆς θυρίδος, καταφερόμενος ὕπνῳ βαθεῖ διαλεγομένου τοῦ παύλου ἐπὶ πλεῖον, κατενεχθεὶς ἀπὸ τοῦ ὕπνου ἔπεσεν ἀπὸ τοῦ τριστέγου κάτω καὶ ἤρθη νεκρός.

10 καταβὰς δὲ ὁ παῦλος ἐπέπεσεν αὐτῶ καὶ συμπεριλαβὼν εἶπεν, μὴ θορυβεῖσθε, ἡ γὰρ ψυχὴ αὐτοῦ ἐν αὐτῶ ἐστιν.

11 ἀναβὰς δὲ καὶ κλάσας τὸν ἄρτον καὶ γευσάμενος ἐφ᾽ ἱκανόν τε ὁμιλήσας ἄχρι αὐγῆς οὕτως ἐξῆλθεν.

12 ἤγαγον δὲ τὸν παῖδα ζῶντα, καὶ παρεκλήθησαν οὐ μετρίως.

13 ἡμεῖς δὲ προελθόντες ἐπὶ τὸ πλοῖον ἀνήχθημεν ἐπὶ τὴν ἆσσον, ἐκεῖθεν μέλλοντες ἀναλαμβάνειν τὸν παῦλον, οὕτως γὰρ διατεταγμένος ἦν μέλλων αὐτὸς πεζεύειν.

14 ὡς δὲ συνέβαλλεν ἡμῖν εἰς τὴν ἆσσον, ἀναλαβόντες αὐτὸν ἤλθομεν εἰς μιτυλήνην,

15 κἀκεῖθεν ἀποπλεύσαντες τῇ ἐπιούσῃ κατηντήσαμεν ἄντικρυς χίου, τῇ δὲ ἑτέρᾳ παρεβάλομεν εἰς σάμον, τῇ δὲ ἐχομένῃ ἤλθομεν εἰς μίλητον·

16 κεκρίκει γὰρ ὁ παῦλος παραπλεῦσαι τὴν ἔφεσον, ὅπως μὴ γένηται αὐτῶ χρονοτριβῆσαι ἐν τῇ ἀσίᾳ, ἔσπευδεν γὰρ εἰ δυνατὸν εἴη αὐτῶ τὴν ἡμέραν τῆς πεντηκοστῆς γενέσθαι εἰς ἱεροσόλυμα.

17 ἀπὸ δὲ τῆς μιλήτου πέμψας εἰς ἔφεσον μετεκαλέσατο τοὺς πρεσβυτέρους τῆς ἐκκλησίας.

18 ὡς δὲ παρεγένοντο πρὸς αὐτὸν εἶπεν αὐτοῖς, ὑμεῖς ἐπίστασθε ἀπὸ πρώτης ἡμέρας ἀφ᾽ ἧς ἐπέβην εἰς τὴν ἀσίαν πῶς μεθ᾽ ὑμῶν τὸν πάντα χρόνον ἐγενόμην,

19 δουλεύων τῶ κυρίῳ μετὰ πάσης ταπεινοφροσύνης καὶ δακρύων καὶ πειρασμῶν τῶν συμβάντων μοι ἐν ταῖς ἐπιβουλαῖς τῶν ἰουδαίων·

20 ὡς οὐδὲν ὑπεστειλάμην τῶν συμφερόντων τοῦ μὴ ἀναγγεῖλαι ὑμῖν καὶ διδάξαι ὑμᾶς δημοσίᾳ καὶ κατ᾽ οἴκους,

21 διαμαρτυρόμενος ἰουδαίοις τε καὶ ἕλλησιν τὴν εἰς θεὸν μετάνοιαν καὶ πίστιν εἰς τὸν κύριον ἡμῶν ἰησοῦν.

22 καὶ νῦν ἰδοὺ δεδεμένος ἐγὼ τῶ πνεύματι πορεύομαι εἰς ἰερουσαλήμ, τὰ ἐν αὐτῇ συναντήσοντά μοι μὴ εἰδώς,

23 πλὴν ὅτι τὸ πνεῦμα τὸ ἅγιον κατὰ πόλιν διαμαρτύρεταί μοι λέγον ὅτι δεσμὰ καὶ θλίψεις με μένουσιν.

24 ἀλλ᾽ οὐδενὸς λόγου ποιοῦμαι τὴν ψυχὴν τιμίαν ἐμαυτῶ ὡς τελειῶσαι τὸν δρόμον μου καὶ τὴν διακονίαν ἣν ἔλαβον παρὰ τοῦ κυρίου ἰησοῦ, διαμαρτύρασθαι τὸ εὐαγγέλιον τῆς χάριτος τοῦ θεοῦ.

25 καὶ νῦν ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ οἶδα ὅτι οὐκέτι ὄψεσθε τὸ πρόσωπόν μου ὑμεῖς πάντες ἐν οἷς διῆλθον κηρύσσων τὴν βασιλείαν·

26 διότι μαρτύρομαι ὑμῖν ἐν τῇ σήμερον ἡμέρᾳ ὅτι καθαρός εἰμι ἀπὸ τοῦ αἵματος πάντων,

27 οὐ γὰρ ὑπεστειλάμην τοῦ μὴ ἀναγγεῖλαι πᾶσαν τὴν βουλὴν τοῦ θεοῦ ὑμῖν.

28 προσέχετε ἑαυτοῖς καὶ παντὶ τῶ ποιμνίῳ, ἐν ᾧ ὑμᾶς τὸ πνεῦμα τὸ ἅγιον ἔθετο ἐπισκόπους, ποιμαίνειν τὴν ἐκκλησίαν τοῦ θεοῦ, ἣν περιεποιήσατο διὰ τοῦ αἵματος τοῦ ἰδίου.

29 ἐγὼ οἶδα ὅτι εἰσελεύσονται μετὰ τὴν ἄφιξίν μου λύκοι βαρεῖς εἰς ὑμᾶς μὴ φειδόμενοι τοῦ ποιμνίου,

30 καὶ ἐξ ὑμῶν αὐτῶν ἀναστήσονται ἄνδρες λαλοῦντες διεστραμμένα τοῦ ἀποσπᾶν τοὺς μαθητὰς ὀπίσω αὐτῶν.

31 διὸ γρηγορεῖτε, μνημονεύοντες ὅτι τριετίαν νύκτα καὶ ἡμέραν οὐκ ἐπαυσάμην μετὰ δακρύων νουθετῶν ἕνα ἕκαστον.

32 καὶ τὰ νῦν παρατίθεμαι ὑμᾶς τῶ θεῶ καὶ τῶ λόγῳ τῆς χάριτος αὐτοῦ τῶ δυναμένῳ οἰκοδομῆσαι καὶ δοῦναι τὴν κληρονομίαν ἐν τοῖς ἡγιασμένοις πᾶσιν.

33 ἀργυρίου ἢ χρυσίου ἢ ἱματισμοῦ οὐδενὸς ἐπεθύμησα·

34 αὐτοὶ γινώσκετε ὅτι ταῖς χρείαις μου καὶ τοῖς οὗσιν μετ᾽ ἐμοῦ ὑπηρέτησαν αἱ χεῖρες αὖται.

35 πάντα ὑπέδειξα ὑμῖν ὅτι οὕτως κοπιῶντας δεῖ ἀντιλαμβάνεσθαι τῶν ἀσθενούντων, μνημονεύειν τε τῶν λόγων τοῦ κυρίου ἰησοῦ ὅτι αὐτὸς εἶπεν, μακάριόν ἐστιν μᾶλλον διδόναι ἢ λαμβάνειν.

36 καὶ ταῦτα εἰπὼν θεὶς τὰ γόνατα αὐτοῦ σὺν πᾶσιν αὐτοῖς προσηύξατο.

37 ἱκανὸς δὲ κλαυθμὸς ἐγένετο πάντων, καὶ ἐπιπεσόντες ἐπὶ τὸν τράχηλον τοῦ παύλου κατεφίλουν αὐτόν,

38 ὀδυνώμενοι μάλιστα ἐπὶ τῶ λόγῳ ᾧ εἰρήκει ὅτι οὐκέτι μέλλουσιν τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ θεωρεῖν. προέπεμπον δὲ αὐτὸν εἰς τὸ πλοῖον.

1  And¹¹⁶¹ after the³⁵⁸⁸ uproar²³⁵¹ was ceased,³⁹⁷³ Paul³⁹⁷² called unto⁴³⁴¹ him the³⁵⁸⁸ disciples,³¹⁰¹ and²⁵³² embraced⁷⁸² them, and departed¹⁸³¹ for to go⁴¹⁹⁸ into¹⁵¹⁹ Macedonia.³¹⁰⁹

2  And¹¹⁶¹ when he had gone over¹³³⁰ those¹⁵⁶⁵ parts,³³¹³ and²⁵³² had given³⁸⁷⁰ them⁸⁴⁶ much⁴¹⁸³ exhortation,³⁰⁵⁶ he came²⁰⁶⁴ into¹⁵¹⁹ Greece,¹⁶⁷¹

3  And⁵⁰³⁷ there abode⁴¹⁶⁰ three⁵¹⁴⁰ months.³³⁷⁶ And when⁵²⁵⁹ the³⁵⁸⁸ Jews²⁴⁵³ laid wait for^{1917 1096} him,⁸⁴⁶ as he was about³¹⁹⁵ to sail³²¹ into¹⁵¹⁹ Syria,⁴⁹⁴⁷ he purposed^{1096 1106} to return⁵²⁹⁰ through¹²²³ Macedonia.³¹⁰⁹

4  And¹¹⁶¹ there accompanied⁴⁹⁰² him⁸⁴⁶ into⁸⁹¹ Asia⁷⁷³ Sopater⁴⁹⁸⁶ of Berea;⁹⁶¹ and¹¹⁶¹ of the Thessalonians,²³³¹ Aristarchus⁷⁰⁸ and²⁵³² Secundus;⁴⁵⁸⁰ and²⁵³² Gaius¹⁰⁵⁰ of Derbe,¹¹⁹⁰ and²⁵³² Timothy;⁵⁰⁹⁵ and¹¹⁶¹ of Asia,⁷⁷⁴ Tychicus⁵¹⁹⁰ and²⁵³² Trophimus.⁵¹⁶¹

5  These³⁷⁷⁸ going before⁴²⁸¹ tarried³³⁰⁶ for us²²⁴⁸ at¹⁷²² Troas.⁵¹⁷⁴

6  And¹¹⁶¹ we²²⁴⁹ sailed away¹⁶⁰² from⁵⁷⁵ Philippi⁵³⁷⁵ after³³²⁶ the³⁵⁸⁸ days²²⁵⁰ of unleavened bread,¹⁰⁶ and²⁵³² came²⁰⁶⁴ unto⁴³¹⁴ them⁸⁴⁶ to¹⁵¹⁹ Troas⁵¹⁷⁴ in⁸⁹¹ five⁴⁰⁰² days;²²⁵⁰ where³⁷⁵⁷ we abode¹³⁰⁴ seven²⁰³³ days.²²⁵⁰

7  And¹¹⁶¹ upon¹⁷²² the³⁵⁸⁸ first³³⁹¹ day of the³⁵⁸⁸ week,⁴⁵²¹ when the³⁵⁸⁸ disciples³¹⁰¹ came together⁴⁸⁶³ to break²⁸⁰⁶ bread,⁷⁴⁰ Paul³⁹⁷² preached¹²⁵⁶ unto them,⁸⁴⁶ ready³¹⁹⁵ to depart¹⁸²⁶ on the³⁵⁸⁸ morrow;¹⁸⁸⁷ and⁵⁰³⁷ continued³⁹⁰⁵ his speech³⁰⁵⁶ until³³⁶⁰ midnight.³³¹⁷

8  And¹¹⁶¹ there were²²⁵⁸ many²⁴²⁵ lights²⁹⁸⁵ in¹⁷²² the³⁵⁸⁸ upper chamber,⁵²⁵³ where³⁷⁵⁷ they were²²⁵⁸ gathered together.⁴⁸⁶³

9  And¹¹⁶¹ there sat²⁵²¹ in¹⁹⁰⁹ a window²³⁷⁶ a certain⁵¹⁰⁰ young man³⁴⁹⁴ named³⁶⁸⁶ Eutychus,²¹⁶¹ being fallen into²⁷⁰² a deep⁹⁰¹ sleep:⁵²⁵⁸ and as Paul³⁹⁷² was¹⁹⁰⁹ long⁴¹¹⁹ preaching,¹²⁵⁶ he sunk down²⁷⁰² with⁵⁷⁵ sleep,⁵²⁵⁸ and fell⁴⁰⁹⁸ down²⁷³⁶ from⁵⁷⁵ the³⁵⁸⁸ third loft,⁵¹⁵² and²⁵³² was taken up¹⁴² dead.³⁴⁹⁸

10  And¹¹⁶¹ Paul³⁹⁷² went down,²⁵⁹⁷ and fell on¹⁹⁶⁸ him,⁸⁴⁶ and²⁵³² embracing⁴⁸⁴³ him said,²⁰³⁶ Trouble not yourselves;^{2350 3361} for¹⁰⁶³ his⁸⁴⁶ life⁵⁵⁹⁰ is²⁰⁷⁶ in¹⁷²² him.⁸⁴⁶

11  When¹¹⁶¹ he therefore was come up again,³⁰⁵ and²⁵³² had broken²⁸⁰⁶ bread,⁷⁴⁰ and²⁵³² eaten,¹⁰⁸⁹ and⁵⁰³⁷ talked³⁶⁵⁶ a long while,^{1909 2425} even till⁸⁹¹ break of day,⁸²⁷ so³⁷⁷⁹ he departed.¹⁸³¹

12  And¹¹⁶¹ they brought⁷¹ the³⁵⁸⁸ young man³⁸¹⁶ alive,²¹⁹⁸ and²⁵³² were not³⁷⁵⁶ a little³³⁵⁷ comforted.³⁸⁷⁰

13  And¹¹⁶¹ we²²⁴⁹ went before⁴²⁸¹ to¹⁹⁰⁹ ship,⁴¹⁴³ and sailed³²¹ unto¹⁵¹⁹ Assos,⁷⁸⁹ there¹⁵⁶⁴ intending³¹⁹⁵ to take in³⁵³ Paul:³⁹⁷² for¹⁰⁶³ so³⁷⁷⁹ had²²⁵⁸ he appointed,¹²⁹⁹ minding³¹⁹⁵ himself⁸⁴⁶ to go afoot.³⁹⁷⁸

14  And¹¹⁶¹ when⁵⁶¹³ he met⁴⁸²⁰ with us²²⁵⁴ at¹⁵¹⁹ Assos,⁷⁸⁹ we took him in,^{353 846} and came²⁰⁶⁴ to¹⁵¹⁹ Mitylene.³⁴¹²

15  And we sailed thence,^{2547 636} and came²⁶⁵⁸ the³⁵⁸⁸ next¹⁹⁶⁶ day over against⁴⁸¹ Chios;⁵⁵⁰⁸ and¹¹⁶¹ the³⁵⁸⁸ next²⁰⁸⁷ day we arrived³⁸⁴⁶ at¹⁵¹⁹ Samos,⁴⁵⁴⁴ and²⁵³² tarried³³⁰⁶ at¹⁷²² Trogyllium;⁵¹⁷⁵ and the³⁵⁸⁸ next²¹⁹² day we came²⁰⁶⁴ to¹⁵¹⁹ Miletus.³³⁹⁹

16  For¹⁰⁶³ Paul³⁹⁷² had determined²⁹¹⁹ to sail by³⁸⁹⁶ Ephesus,²¹⁸¹ because³⁷⁰⁴ he⁸⁴⁶ would¹⁰⁹⁶ not³³⁶¹ spend the time⁵⁵⁵¹ in¹⁷²² Asia:⁷⁷³ for¹⁰⁶³ he hasted,⁴⁶⁹² if¹⁴⁸⁷ it were²²⁵⁸ possible¹⁴¹⁵ for him,⁸⁴⁶ to be¹⁰⁹⁶ at¹⁵¹⁹ Jerusalem²⁴¹⁴ the³⁵⁸⁸ day²²⁵⁰ of Pentecost.⁴⁰⁰⁵

17  And¹¹⁶¹ from⁵⁷⁵ Miletus³³⁹⁹ he sent³⁹⁹² to¹⁵¹⁹ Ephesus,²¹⁸¹ and called³³³³ the³⁵⁸⁸ elders⁴²⁴⁵ of the³⁵⁸⁸ church.¹⁵⁷⁷

18  And¹¹⁶¹ when⁵⁶¹³ they were come³⁸⁵⁴ to⁴³¹⁴ him,⁸⁴⁶ he said²⁰³⁶ unto them,⁸⁴⁶ Ye⁵²¹⁰ know,¹⁹⁸⁷ from⁵⁷⁵ the first⁴⁴¹³ day²²⁵⁰ that^{575 3739} I came¹⁹¹⁰ into¹⁵¹⁹ Asia,⁷⁷³ after what manner⁴⁴⁵⁹ I have been¹⁰⁹⁶ with³³²⁶ you⁵²¹⁶ at all³⁹⁵⁶ seasons,⁵⁵⁵⁰

19  Serving¹³⁹⁸ the³⁵⁸⁸ Lord²⁹⁶² with³³²⁶ all³⁹⁵⁶ humility of mind,⁵⁰¹² and²⁵³² with many⁴¹⁸³ tears,¹¹⁴⁴ and²⁵³² temptations,³⁹⁸⁶ which befell⁴⁸¹⁹ me³⁴²⁷ by¹⁷²² the³⁵⁸⁸ lying in wait¹⁹¹⁷ of the³⁵⁸⁸ Jews:²⁴⁵³

20  And how⁵⁶¹³ I kept back⁵²⁸⁸ nothing³⁷⁶² that was profitable⁴⁸⁵¹ unto you,³³⁶¹ but have showed³¹² you,⁵²¹³ and²⁵³² have taught¹³²¹ you⁵²⁰⁹ publicly,¹²¹⁹ and²⁵³² from house to house,^{2596 3624}

21  Testifying¹²⁶³ both⁵⁰³⁷ to the Jews,²⁴⁵³ and²⁵³² also to the Greeks,¹⁶⁷² repentance³³⁴¹ toward¹⁵¹⁹ God,²³¹⁶ and²⁵³² faith⁴¹⁰² toward¹⁵¹⁹ our²²⁵⁷ Lord²⁹⁶² Jesus²⁴²⁴ Christ.⁵⁵⁴⁷

22  And²⁵³² now,³⁵⁶⁸ behold,²⁴⁰⁰ I¹⁴⁷³ go⁴¹⁹⁸ bound¹²¹⁰ in the³⁵⁸⁸ spirit⁴¹⁵¹ unto¹⁵¹⁹ Jerusalem,²⁴¹⁹ not³³⁶¹ knowing¹⁴⁹² the things that shall befall⁴⁸⁷⁶ me³⁴²⁷ there:^{1722 846}

23  Save⁴¹³³ that³⁷⁵⁴ the³⁵⁸⁸ Holy⁴⁰ Ghost⁴¹⁵¹ witnesseth¹²⁶³ in every city,^{2596 4172} saying³⁰⁰⁴ that³⁷⁵⁴ bonds¹¹⁹⁹ and²⁵³² afflictions²³⁴⁷ abide³³⁰⁶ me.³¹⁶⁵

24  But²³⁵ none of these things move me,^{4160 3056 3762} neither³⁷⁶¹ count²¹⁹² I my³⁴⁵⁰ life⁵⁵⁹⁰ dear⁵⁰⁹³ unto myself,¹⁶⁸³ so that⁵⁶¹³ I might finish⁵⁰⁴⁸ my³⁴⁵⁰ course¹⁴⁰⁸ with³³²⁶ joy,⁵⁴⁷⁹ and²⁵³² the³⁵⁸⁸ ministry,¹²⁴⁸ which³⁷³⁹ I have received²⁹⁸³ of³⁸⁴⁴ the³⁵⁸⁸ Lord²⁹⁶² Jesus,²⁴²⁴ to testify¹²⁶³ the³⁵⁸⁸ gospel²⁰⁹⁸ of the³⁵⁸⁸ grace⁵⁴⁸⁵ of God.²³¹⁶

25  And²⁵³² now,³⁵⁶⁸ behold,²⁴⁰⁰ I¹⁴⁷³ know¹⁴⁹² that³⁷⁵⁴ ye⁵²¹⁰ all,³⁹⁵⁶ among¹⁷²² whom³⁷³⁹ I have gone¹³³⁰ preaching²⁷⁸⁴ the³⁵⁸⁸ kingdom⁹³² of God,²³¹⁶ shall see³⁷⁰⁰ my³⁴⁵⁰ face⁴³⁸³ no more.³⁷⁶⁵

26  Wherefore¹³⁵² I take you to record^{3143 5213} this⁴⁵⁹⁴ day,²²⁵⁰ that³⁷⁵⁴ I¹⁴⁷³ am pure²⁵¹³ from⁵⁷⁵ the³⁵⁸⁸ blood¹²⁹ of all³⁹⁵⁶ men.

27  For¹⁰⁶³ I have not³⁷⁵⁶ shunned⁵²⁸⁸ to³³⁶¹ declare³¹² unto you⁵²¹³ all³⁹⁵⁶ the³⁵⁸⁸ counsel¹⁰¹² of God.²³¹⁶

28  Take heed⁴³³⁷ therefore³⁷⁶⁷ unto yourselves,¹⁴³⁸ and²⁵³² to all³⁹⁵⁶ the³⁵⁸⁸ flock,⁴¹⁶⁸ over¹⁷²² the which³⁷³⁹ the³⁵⁸⁸ Holy⁴⁰ Ghost⁴¹⁵¹ hath made⁵⁰⁸⁷ you⁵²⁰⁹ overseers,¹⁹⁸⁵ to feed⁴¹⁶⁵ the³⁵⁸⁸ church¹⁵⁷⁷ of God,²³¹⁶ which³⁷³⁹ he hath purchased⁴⁰⁴⁶ with¹²²³ his own²³⁹⁸ blood.¹²⁹

29  For¹⁰⁶³ I¹⁴⁷³ know¹⁴⁹² this,⁵¹²⁴ that³⁷⁵⁴ after³³²⁶ my³⁴⁵⁰ departing⁸⁶⁷ shall grievous⁹²⁶ wolves³⁰⁷⁴ enter in¹⁵²⁵ among¹⁵¹⁹ you,⁵²⁰⁹ not³³⁶¹ sparing⁵³³⁹ the³⁵⁸⁸ flock.⁴¹⁶⁸

30  Also²⁵³² of¹⁵³⁷ your own selves^{5216 846} shall men⁴³⁵ arise,⁴⁵⁰ speaking²⁹⁸⁰ perverse things,¹²⁹⁴ to draw away⁶⁴⁵ disciples³¹⁰¹ after³⁶⁹⁴ them.⁸⁴⁶

31  Therefore¹³⁵² watch,¹¹²⁷ and remember,³⁴²¹ that³⁷⁵⁴ by the space of three years⁵¹⁴⁸ I ceased³⁹⁷³ not³⁷⁵⁶ to warn³⁵⁶⁰ every¹⁵³⁸ one¹⁵²⁰ night³⁵⁷¹ and²⁵³² day²²⁵⁰ with³³²⁶ tears.¹¹⁴⁴

32  And²⁵³² now,³⁵⁶⁹ brethren,⁸⁰ I commend³⁹⁰⁸ you⁵²⁰⁹ to God,²³¹⁶ and²⁵³² to the³⁵⁸⁸ word³⁰⁵⁶ of his⁸⁴⁶ grace,⁵⁴⁸⁵ which is able¹⁴¹⁰ to build you up,²⁰²⁶ and²⁵³² to give¹³²⁵ you⁵²¹³ an inheritance²⁸¹⁷ among¹⁷²² all³⁹⁵⁶ them which are sanctified.³⁷

33  I have coveted¹⁹³⁷ no man's³⁷⁶² silver,⁶⁹⁴ or²²²⁸ gold,⁵⁵⁵³ or²²²⁸ apparel.²⁴⁴¹

34  Yea,¹¹⁶¹ ye⁸⁴⁶ yourselves know,¹⁰⁹⁷ that³⁷⁵⁴ these³⁷⁷⁸ hands⁵⁴⁹⁵ have ministered⁵²⁵⁶ unto my³⁴⁵⁰ necessities,⁵⁵³² and²⁵³² to them that were⁵⁶⁰⁷ with³³²⁶ me.¹⁷⁰⁰

35  I have showed⁵²⁶³ you⁵²¹³ all things,³⁹⁵⁶ how that³⁷⁵⁴ so³⁷⁷⁹ laboring²⁸⁷² ye ought¹¹⁶³ to support⁴⁸² the³⁵⁸⁸ weak,⁷⁷⁰ and⁵⁰³⁷ to remember³⁴²¹ the³⁵⁸⁸ words³⁰⁵⁶ of the³⁵⁸⁸ Lord²⁹⁶² Jesus,²⁴²⁴ how³⁷⁵⁴ he⁸⁴⁸ said,²⁰³⁶ It is²⁰⁷⁶ more³¹²³ blessed³¹⁰⁷ to give¹³²⁵ than²²²⁸ to receive.²⁹⁸³

36  And²⁵³² when he had thus⁵⁰²³ spoken,²⁰³⁶ he kneeled down,^{5087 846 1119} and prayed⁴³³⁶ with⁴⁸⁶² them⁸⁴⁶ all.³⁹⁵⁶

37  And¹¹⁶¹ they all wept sore,^{1096 2425 2805 3956} and²⁵³² fell¹⁹⁶⁸ on¹⁹⁰⁹ Paul's³⁹⁷² neck,⁵¹³⁷ and kissed²⁷⁰⁵ him,⁸⁴⁶

38  Sorrowing³⁶⁰⁰ most of all³¹²² for¹⁹⁰⁹ the³⁵⁸⁸ words³⁰⁵⁶ which³⁷³⁹ he spake,²⁰⁴⁶ that³⁷⁵⁴ they should³¹⁹⁵ see²³³⁴ his⁸⁴⁸ face⁴³⁸³ no more.³⁷⁶⁵ And¹¹⁶¹ they accompanied⁴³¹¹ him⁸⁴⁶ unto¹⁵¹⁹ the³⁵⁸⁸ ship.⁴¹⁴³

Vul

1 Postquam autem cessavit tumultus, vocatis Paulus discipulis, et exhortatus eos, valedixit, et profectus est ut iret in Macedoniam.

2 Cum autem perambulasset partes illas, et exhortatus eos fuisset multo sermone, venit ad Græciam:

3 ubi cum fecisset menses tres, factæ sunt illi insidiæ a Judæis navigaturo in Syriam: habuitque consilium ut reverteretur per Macedoniam.

4 Comitatus est autem eum Sopater Pyrrhi Berœensis, Thessalonicensium vero Aristarchus, et Secundus, et Gajus Derbeus, et Timotheus: Asiani vero Tychicus et Trophimus.

5 Hi cum præcessissent, sustinuerunt nos Troade:

6 nos vero navigavimus post dies azymorum a Philippis, et venimus ad eos Troadem in diebus quinque, ubi demorati sumus diebus septem.

7 Una autem sabbati cum convenissemus ad frangendum panem, Paulus disputabat cum eis profecturus in crastinum, protraxitque sermonem usque in mediam noctem.

8 Erant autem lampades copiosæ in cœnaculo, ubi eramus congregati.

9 Sedens autem quidam adolescens nomine Eutychus super fenestram, cum mergeretur somno gravi, disputante diu Paulo, ductus somno cecidit de tertio cœnaculo deorsum, et sublatus est mortuus.

10 Ad quem cum descendisset Paulus, incubuit super eum: et complexus dixit: Nolite turbari, anima enim ipsius in ipso est.

11 Ascendens autem, frangensque panem, et gustans, satisque allocutus usque in lucem, sic profectus est.

12 Adduxerunt autem puerum viventem, et consolati sunt non minime.

13 Nos autem ascendentes navem, navigavimus in Asson, inde suscepturi Paulum: sic enim disposuerat ipse per terram iter facturus.

14 Cum autem convenisset nos in Asson, assumpto eo, venimus Mitylenen.

15 Et inde navigantes, sequenti die venimus contra Chium, et alia applicuimus Samum, et sequenti die venimus Miletum.

16 Proposuerat enim Paulus transnavigare Ephesum, ne qua mora illi fieret in Asia. Festinabat enim, si possibile sibi esset, ut diem Pentecostes faceret Jerosolymis.

17 A Mileto autem mittens Ephesum, vocavit majores natu ecclesiæ.

18 Qui cum venissent ad eum, et simul essent, dixit eis: Vos scitis a prima die qua ingressus sum in Asiam, qualiter vobiscum per omne tempus fuerim,

19 serviens Domino cum omni humilitate, et lacrimis, et tentationibus, quæ mihi acciderunt ex insidiis Judæorum:

20 quomodo nihil subtraxerim utilium, quominus annuntiarem vobis et docerem vos, publice et per domos,

21 testificans Judæis atque gentilibus in Deum pœnitentiam, et fidem in Dominum nostrum Jesum Christum.

22 Et nunc ecce alligatus ego spiritu, vado in Jerusalem: quæ in ea ventura sint mihi, ignorans:

23 nisi quod Spiritus Sanctus per omnes civitates mihi protestatur, dicens quoniam vincula et tribulationes Jerosolymis me manent.

24 Sed nihil horum vereor: nec facio animam meam pretiosiorem quam me, dummodo consummem cursum meum, et ministerium verbi quod accepi a Domino Jesu, testificari Evangelium gratiæ Dei.

25 Et nunc ecce ego scio quia amplius non videbitis faciem meam vos omnes, per quos transivi prædicans regnum Dei.

26 Quapropter contestor vos hodierna die, quia mundus sum a sanguine omnium.

27 Non enim subterfugi, quominus annuntiarem omne consilium Dei vobis.

28 Attendite vobis, et universo gregi, in quo vos Spiritus Sanctus posuit episcopos regere ecclesiam Dei, quam acquisivit sanguine suo.

29 Ego scio quoniam intrabunt post discessionem meam lupi rapaces in vos, non parcentes gregi.

30 Et ex vobisipsis exsurgent viri loquentes perversa, ut abducant discipulos post se.

31 Propter quod vigilate, memoria retinentes quoniam per triennium nocte et die non cessavi, cum lacrimis monens unumquemque vestrum.

32 Et nunc commendo vos Deo, et verbo gratiæ ipsius, qui potens est ædificare, et dare hæreditatem in sanctificatis omnibus.

33 Argentum, et aurum, aut vestem nullius concupivi, sicut

34 ipsi scitis: quoniam ad ea quæ mihi opus erant, et his qui mecum sunt, ministraverunt manus istæ.

35 Omnia ostendi vobis, quoniam sic laborantes, oportet suscipere infirmos ac meminisse verbi Domini Jesu: quoniam ipse dixit: Beatius est magis dare, quam accipere.

36 Et cum hæc dixisset, positis genibus suis oravit cum omnibus illis.

37 Magnus autem fletus factus est omnium: et procumbentes super collum Pauli, osculabantur eum,

38 dolentes maxime in verbo quod dixerat, quoniam amplius faciem ejus non essent visuri. Et deducebant eum ad navem.
