Acts 20
1 When the uproar had ended, Paul sent for the disciples. And after encouraging them, he said goodbye to them and left for Macedonia.
μετα δε το παυσασθαι τον θορυβον προσκαλεσαμενος ο παυλος τους μαθητας και ασπασαμενος εξηλθεν πορευθηναι εις την μακεδονιαν
2 After traveling through that area and speaking many words of encouragement, he arrived in Greece,
διελθων δε τα μερη εκεινα και παρακαλεσας αυτους λογω πολλω ηλθεν εις την ελλαδα
3 where he stayed three months. And when the Jews formed a plot against him as he was about to sail for Syria, he decided to go back through Macedonia.
ποιησας τε μηνας τρεις γενομενης αυτω επιβουλης υπο των ιουδαιων μελλοντι αναγεσθαι εις την συριαν εγενετο γνωμη του υποστρεφειν δια μακεδονιας
4 Paul was accompanied by Sopater son of Pyrrhus from Berea, Aristarchus and Secundus from Thessalonica, Gaius from Derbe, Timothy, and Tychicus and Trophimus from the province of Asia.
συνειπετο δε αυτω αχρι της ασιας σωπατρος βεροιαιος θεσσαλονικεων δε αρισταρχος και σεκουνδος και γαιος δερβαιος και τιμοθεος ασιανοι δε τυχικος και τροφιμος
5 These men went on ahead and waited for us in Troas.
ουτοι προελθοντες εμενον ημας εν τρωαδι
6 And after the Feast of Unleavened Bread, we sailed from Philippi, and five days later we rejoined them in Troas, where we stayed seven days.
ημεις δε εξεπλευσαμεν μετα τας ημερας των αζυμων απο φιλιππων και ηλθομεν προς αυτους εις την τρωαδα αχρις ημερων πεντε ου διετριψαμεν ημερας επτα
7 On the first day of the week we came together to break bread. Since Paul was ready to leave the next day, he talked to them and kept on speaking until midnight.
εν δε τη μια των σαββατων συνηγμενων των μαθητων του κλασαι αρτον ο παυλος διελεγετο αυτοις μελλων εξιεναι τη επαυριον παρετεινεν τε τον λογον μεχρι μεσονυκτιου
8 Now there were many lamps in the upper room where we were gathered.
ησαν δε λαμπαδες ικαναι εν τω υπερωω ου ησαν συνηγμενοι
9 And a certain young man named Eutychus, seated in the window, was sinking into a deep sleep as Paul talked on and on. When he was sound asleep, he fell from the third story and was picked up dead.
καθημενος δε τις νεανιας ονοματι ευτυχος επι της θυριδος καταφερομενος υπνω βαθει διαλεγομενου του παυλου επι πλειον κατενεχθεις απο του υπνου επεσεν απο του τριστεγου κατω και ηρθη νεκρος
10 But Paul went down, threw himself on the young man, and embraced him. “Do not be alarmed!” he said. “He is still alive!”
καταβας δε ο παυλος επεπεσεν αυτω και συμπεριλαβων ειπεν μη θορυβεισθε η γαρ ψυχη αυτου εν αυτω εστιν
11 Then Paul went back upstairs, broke bread, and ate. And after speaking until daybreak, he departed.
αναβας δε και κλασας αρτον και γευσαμενος εφ ικανον τε ομιλησας αχρις αυγης ουτως εξηλθεν
12 And the people were greatly relieved to take the boy home alive.
ηγαγον δε τον παιδα ζωντα και παρεκληθησαν ου μετριως
13 We went on ahead to the ship and sailed to Assos, where we were to take Paul aboard. He had arranged this because he was going there on foot.
ημεις δε προελθοντες επι το πλοιον ανηχθημεν εις την ασσον εκειθεν μελλοντες αναλαμβανειν τον παυλον ουτως γαρ ην διατεταγμενος μελλων αυτος πεζευειν
14 And when he met us at Assos, we took him aboard and went on to Mitylene.
ως δε συνεβαλεν ημιν εις την ασσον αναλαβοντες αυτον ηλθομεν εις μιτυληνην
15 Sailing on from there, we arrived the next day opposite Chios. The day after that we arrived at Samos, and on the following day we came to Miletus.
κακειθεν αποπλευσαντες τη επιουση κατηντησαμεν αντικρυ χιου τη δε ετερα παρεβαλομεν εις σαμον και μειναντες εν τρωγυλλιω τη εχομενη ηλθομεν εις μιλητον
16 Paul had decided to sail past Ephesus to avoid spending time in the province of Asia, because he was in a hurry to reach Jerusalem, if possible, by the day of Pentecost.
εκρινεν γαρ ο παυλος παραπλευσαι την εφεσον οπως μη γενηται αυτω χρονοτριβησαι εν τη ασια εσπευδεν γαρ ει δυνατον ην αυτω την ημεραν της πεντηκοστης γενεσθαι εις ιεροσολυμα
17 From Miletus, Paul sent to Ephesus for the elders of the church.
απο δε της μιλητου πεμψας εις εφεσον μετεκαλεσατο τους πρεσβυτερους της εκκλησιας
18 When they came to him, he said, “You know how I lived the whole time I was with you, from the first day I arrived in the province of Asia.
ως δε παρεγενοντο προς αυτον ειπεν αυτοις υμεις επιστασθε απο πρωτης ημερας αφ ης επεβην εις την ασιαν πως μεθ υμων τον παντα χρονον εγενομην
19 I served the Lord with great humility and with tears, especially in the trials that came upon me through the plots of the Jews.
δουλευων τω κυριω μετα πασης ταπεινοφροσυνης και πολλων δακρυων και πειρασμων των συμβαντων μοι εν ταις επιβουλαις των ιουδαιων
20 I did not shrink back from declaring anything that was helpful to you as I taught you publicly and from house to house,
ως ουδεν υπεστειλαμην των συμφεροντων του μη αναγγειλαι υμιν και διδαξαι υμας δημοσια και κατ οικους
21 testifying to Jews and Greeks alike about repentance to God and faith in our Lord Jesus Christ.
διαμαρτυρομενος ιουδαιοις τε και ελλησιν την εις τον θεον μετανοιαν και πιστιν την εις τον κυριον ημων ιησουν χριστον
22 And now, compelled by the Spirit, I am going to Jerusalem, not knowing what will happen to me there.
και νυν ιδου εγω δεδεμενος τω πνευματι πορευομαι εις ιερουσαλημ τα εν αυτη συναντησοντα μοι μη ειδως
23 I only know that in town after town the Holy Spirit warns me that chains and afflictions await me.
πλην οτι το πνευμα το αγιον κατα πολιν διαμαρτυρεται λεγον οτι δεσμα με και θλιψεις μενουσιν
24 But I consider my life of no value to me, if only I may finish my course and complete the ministry I have received from the Lord Jesus—the ministry of testifying to the good news of God’s grace.
αλλ ουδενος λογον ποιουμαι ουδε εχω την ψυχην μου τιμιαν εμαυτω ως τελειωσαι τον δρομον μου μετα χαρας και την διακονιαν ην ελαβον παρα του κυριου ιησου διαμαρτυρασθαι το ευαγγελιον της χαριτος του θεου
25 Now I know that none of you among whom I have preached the kingdom will see my face again.
και νυν ιδου εγω οιδα οτι ουκετι οψεσθε το προσωπον μου υμεις παντες εν οις διηλθον κηρυσσων την βασιλειαν του θεου
26 Therefore I testify to you this day that I am innocent of the blood of all men.
διο μαρτυρομαι υμιν εν τη σημερον ημερα οτι καθαρος εγω απο του αιματος παντων
27 For I did not shrink back from declaring to you the whole will of God.
ου γαρ υπεστειλαμην του μη αναγγειλαι υμιν πασαν την βουλην του θεου
28 Keep watch over yourselves and the entire flock of which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers. Be shepherds of the church of God, which He purchased with His own blood.
προσεχετε ουν εαυτοις και παντι τω ποιμνιω εν ω υμας το πνευμα το αγιον εθετο επισκοπους ποιμαινειν την εκκλησιαν του θεου ην περιεποιησατο δια του ιδιου αιματος
29 I know that after my departure, savage wolves will come in among you and will not spare the flock.
εγω γαρ οιδα τουτο οτι εισελευσονται μετα την αφιξιν μου λυκοι βαρεις εις υμας μη φειδομενοι του ποιμνιου
30 Even from your own number, men will rise up and distort the truth to draw away disciples after them.
και εξ υμων αυτων αναστησονται ανδρες λαλουντες διεστραμμενα του αποσπαν τους μαθητας οπισω αυτων
31 Therefore be alert and remember that for three years I never stopped warning each of you night and day with tears.
διο γρηγορειτε μνημονευοντες οτι τριετιαν νυκτα και ημεραν ουκ επαυσαμην μετα δακρυων νουθετων ενα εκαστον
32 And now I commit you to God and to the word of His grace, which can build you up and give you an inheritance among all who are sanctified.
και τα νυν παρατιθεμαι υμας αδελφοι τω θεω και τω λογω της χαριτος αυτου τω δυναμενω εποικοδομησαι και δουναι υμιν κληρονομιαν εν τοις ηγιασμενοις πασιν
33 I have not coveted anyone’s silver or gold or clothing.
αργυριου η χρυσιου η ιματισμου ουδενος επεθυμησα
34 You yourselves know that these hands of mine have ministered to my own needs and those of my companions.
αυτοι δε γινωσκετε οτι ταις χρειαις μου και τοις ουσιν μετ εμου υπηρετησαν αι χειρες αυται
35 In everything, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words of the Lord Jesus Himself: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’”
παντα υπεδειξα υμιν οτι ουτως κοπιωντας δει αντιλαμβανεσθαι των ασθενουντων μνημονευειν τε των λογων του κυριου ιησου οτι αυτος ειπεν μακαριον εστιν διδοναι μαλλον η λαμβανειν
36 When Paul had said this, he knelt down with all of them and prayed.
και ταυτα ειπων θεις τα γονατα αυτου συν πασιν αυτοις προσηυξατο
37 They all wept openly as they embraced Paul and kissed him.
ικανος δε εγενετο κλαυθμος παντων και επιπεσοντες επι τον τραχηλον του παυλου κατεφιλουν αυτον
38 They were especially grieved by his statement that they would never see his face again. Then they accompanied him to the ship.
οδυνωμενοι μαλιστα επι τω λογω ω ειρηκει οτι ουκετι μελλουσιν το προσωπον αυτου θεωρειν προεπεμπον δε αυτον εις το πλοιον
