(13)Then we going before to the ship, sailed for Assos, intending there to take in Paul: for so he had ordered, meaning himself to walk thither. (14)And when he met us at Assos, we took him up, and came to Mytelene. (15)And sailing from thence, on the following day we advanced over against Chios; and the next day we touched at Samos, and staying at Trogyllium, the day following we came to Miletus. (16)For Paul had determined to sail by Ephesus, that he might not spend the time in Asia: for he hastened on, if it was possible for him, to be at Jerusalem on the day of Pentecost. (17)So he sent to Ephesus from Miletus, and called the presbyters of the church to attend him. (18)And when they were come unto him, he said unto them, Ye know, from the very first day in which I entered into Asia, how I have been among you at every season, (19)serving the Lord with all humility, and with many tears and trials, which have befallen me through the lying in wait of the Jews: (20)and that I have suppressed nothing which could conduce to your profiting; not desisting from preaching to you, and teaching you in public, and from house to house, (21)repeatedly urging both on Jews and Greeks repentance towards God, and faith towards our Lord Jesus Christ. (22)And now behold I am going, bound by the Spirit, unto Jerusalem, not knowing what things shall there befal me: (23)only this, that the Holy Ghost witnesseth in every city, saying, that bonds and tribulation await thee. (24)Yet I make no account of any _suffering_, nor regard my life as of any value to myself, farther than as I may finish my course with joy, and the ministry which I have received of the Lord, to testify fully the Gospel of the grace of God. (25)And now behold, I know that ye shall see my face no more, even ye all, among whom I have gone in and out preaching the kingdom of God. (26)Wherefore I appeal to you this day as witnesses that I am pure from the blood of all men. (27)For I have concealed nothing, so as not repeatedly to declare to you the whole counsel of God. (28)Take heed therefore to yourselves, and to all the flock, over which the Holy Ghost hath made you bishops, to feed as shepherds the church of God, which he purchased with his own blood. (29)For this I know, that after my departure there will come among you grievous wolves, not sparing the flock: (30)Yea, from among yourselves shall men arise, speaking perverting doctrines, to draw away disciples after them. (31)Therefore watch, remembering that for three years, by night and by day, I have never ceased with tears to admonish every individual. (32)And now, brethren, I commit you to God and to the word of his grace, which is able to finish the superstructure, and to give you an inheritance among all those who are sanctified. (33)The silver, or gold, or apparel of no man have I coveted: (34)but ye yourselves know that these hands have by labour furnished necessaries for my own wants, and for those who were with me.
