(22)And now, behold, I go bound in the spirit to Jerusalem, not knowing the things that shall befall me there; (23)save that the Holy Spirit witnesses to me in every city, saying that bonds and afflictions await me. (24)But none of these things move me, neither do I count my life dear to myself, so that I may finish my course with joy[20:24], and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify the good news of the grace of God. (25)And now, behold, I know that all ye, among whom I went about preaching the kingdom of God, shall see my face no more. (26)Wherefore I testify to you this day, that I am pure from the blood of all; (27)for I shunned not to declare to you the whole counsel of God. (28)Take heed therefore to yourselves, and to all the flock, in which the Holy Spirit made you overseers, to feed the church of the Lord[20:28], which he purchased with his own blood. (29)For I know this, that after my departure grievous wolves will enter in among you, not sparing the flock. (30)And from among yourselves will men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them. (31)Therefore watch, remembering that for the space of three years, night and day, I ceased not to warn every one with tears. (32)And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, who is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all the sanctified. (33)I coveted no one's silver, or gold, or apparel. (34)Ye yourselves know, that these hands ministered to my necessities, and to those who were with me. (35)In all ways I showed you that, so laboring, ye ought to assist the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that he himself said: It is more blessed to give than to receive. (36)And having thus spoken, he kneeled down, and prayed with them all. (37)And they all wept sorely, and fell on Paul's neck, and kissed him; (38)sorrowing most of all for the word which he had spoken, that they should behold his face no more. And they accompanied him to the ship. XXI. AND it came to pass, that after we had torn ourselves from them, and had put to sea, we came with a straight course to Coos, and the day following to Rhodes, and from thence to Patara. (2)And finding a ship crossing over to Phoenicia, we went aboard, and put to sea. (3)And bringing Cyprus in sight, and leaving it on the left hand, we sailed to Syria, and landed at Tyre; for there the ship was to unlade her burden. (4)And having found out the disciples, we remained there seven days; who said to Paul through the Spirit, that he should not go up to Jerusalem. (5)And when we had completed the days, we departed and went our way; they all accompanying us, with wives and children, till we were out of the city; and we kneeled down on the beach, and prayed. (6)And having embraced one another, we went on board the ship; and they returned to their homes.
