Acts 20
1 But after the tumult had ceased, Paul having called the disciples to [him] and embraced [them], went away to go to Macedonia.
itthaṁ kalahe nivṛtte sati paulaḥ śiṣyagaṇam āhūya visarjanaṁ prāpya mākidaniyādeśaṁ prasthitavān|
2 And having passed through those parts, and having exhorted them with much discourse, he came to Greece.
tena sthānena gacchan taddeśīyān śiṣyān bahūpadiśya yūnānīyadeśam upasthitavān|
3 And having spent three months [there], a treacherous plot against him having been set on foot by the Jews, as he was going to sail to Syria, [the] resolution was adopted of returning through Macedonia.
tatra māsatrayaṁ sthitvā tasmāt suriyādeśaṁ yātum udyataḥ, kintu yihūdīyāstaṁ hantuṁ guptā atiṣṭhan tasmāt sa punarapi mākidaniyāmārgeṇa pratyāgantuṁ matiṁ kṛtavān|
4 And there accompanied him as far as Asia, Sopater [son] of Pyrrhus, a Berean; and of Thessalonians, Aristarchus and Secundus, and Gaius and Timotheus of Derbe, and of Asia, Tychicus and Trophimus.
birayānagarīyasopātraḥ thiṣalanīkīyāristārkhasikundau darbbonagarīyagāyatīmathiyau āśiyādeśīyatukhikatraphimau ca tena sārddhaṁ āśiyādeśaṁ yāvad gatavantaḥ|
5 These going before waited for us in Troas;
ete sarvve 'grasarāḥ santo 'smān apekṣya troyānagare sthitavantaḥ|
6 but we sailed away from Philippi after the days of unleavened bread, and we came to them to Troas in five days, where we spent seven days.
kiṇvaśūnyapūpotsavadine ca gate sati vayaṁ philipīnagarāt toyapathena gatvā pañcabhi rdinaistroyānagaram upasthāya tatra saptadinānyavātiṣṭhāma|
7 And the first day of the week, we being assembled to break bread, Paul discoursed to them, about to depart on the morrow. And he prolonged the discourse till midnight.
saptāhasya prathamadine pūpān bhaṁktu śiṣyeṣu militeṣu paulaḥ paradine tasmāt prasthātum udyataḥ san tadahni prāyeṇa kṣapāyā yāmadvayaṁ yāvat śiṣyebhyo dharmmakathām akathayat|
8 And there were many lights in the upper room where we were assembled.
uparisthe yasmin prakoṣṭhe sabhāṁ kṛtvāsan tatra bahavaḥ pradīpāḥ prājvalan|
9 And a certain youth, by name Eutychus, sitting at the window-opening, overpowered by deep sleep, while Paul discoursed very much at length, having been overpowered by the sleep, fell from the third story down to the bottom, and was taken up dead.
utukhanāmā kaścana yuvā ca vātāyana upaviśan ghorataranidrāgrasto 'bhūt tadā paulena bahukṣaṇaṁ kathāyāṁ pracāritāyāṁ nidrāmagnaḥ sa tasmād uparisthatṛtīyaprakoṣṭhād apatat, tato lokāstaṁ mṛtakalpaṁ dhṛtvodatolayan|
10 But Paul descending fell upon him, and enfolding [him] [in his arms], said, Be not troubled, for his life is in him.
tataḥ paulo'varuhya tasya gātre patitvā taṁ kroḍe nidhāya kathitavān, yūyaṁ vyākulā mā bhūta nāyaṁ prāṇai rviyuktaḥ|
11 And having gone up, and having broken the bread, and eaten, and having long spoken until daybreak, so he went away.
paścāt sa punaścopari gatvā pūpān bhaṁktvā prabhātaṁ yāvat kathopakathane kṛtvā prasthitavān|
12 And they brought [away] the boy alive, and were no little comforted.
te ca taṁ jīvantaṁ yuvānaṁ gṛhītvā gatvā paramāpyāyitā jātāḥ|
13 And we, having gone before on board ship, sailed off to Assos, going to take in Paul there; for so he had directed, he himself being about to go on foot.
anantaraṁ vayaṁ potenāgrasarā bhūtvāsmanagaram uttīryya paulaṁ grahītuṁ matim akurmma yataḥ sa tatra padbhyāṁ vrajituṁ matiṁ kṛtveti nirūpitavān|
14 And when he met with us at Assos, having taken him on board, we came to Mitylene;
tasmāt tatrāsmābhiḥ sārddhaṁ tasmin milite sati vayaṁ taṁ nītvā mitulīnyupadvīpaṁ prāptavantaḥ|
15 and having sailed thence, on the morrow arrived opposite Chios, and the next day put in at Samos; and having stayed at Trogyllium, the next day we came to Miletus:
tasmāt potaṁ mocayitvā pare'hani khīyopadvīpasya sammukhaṁ labdhavantastasmād ekenāhnā sāmopadvīpaṁ gatvā potaṁ lāgayitvā trogulliye sthitvā parasmin divase milītanagaram upātiṣṭhāma|
16 for Paul thought it desirable to sail by Ephesus, so that he might not be made to spend time in Asia; for he hastened, if it was possible for him, to be the day of Pentecost at Jerusalem.
yataḥ paula āśiyādeśe kālaṁ yāpayitum nābhilaṣan iphiṣanagaraṁ tyaktvā yātuṁ mantraṇāṁ sthirīkṛtavān; yasmād yadi sādhyaṁ bhavati tarhi nistārotsavasya pañcāśattamadine sa yirūśālamyupasthātuṁ matiṁ kṛtavān|
17 But from Miletus having sent to Ephesus, he called over [to him] the elders of the assembly.
paulo milītād iphiṣaṁ prati lokaṁ prahitya samājasya prācīnān āhūyānītavān|
18 And when they were come to him, he said to them, Ye know how I was with you all the time from the first day that I arrived in Asia,
teṣu tasya samīpam upasthiteṣu sa tebhya imāṁ kathāṁ kathitavān, aham āśiyādeśe prathamāgamanam ārabhyādya yāvad yuṣmākaṁ sannidhau sthitvā sarvvasamaye yathācaritavān tad yūyaṁ jānītha;
19 serving the Lord with all lowliness, and tears, and temptations, which happened to me through the plots of the Jews;
phalataḥ sarvvathā namramanāḥ san bahuśrupātena yihudīyānām kumantraṇājātanānāparīkṣābhiḥ prabhoḥ sevāmakaravaṁ|
20 how I held back nothing of what is profitable, so as not to announce [it] to you, and to teach you publicly and in every house,
kāmapi hitakathāṁ na gopāyitavān tāṁ pracāryya saprakāśaṁ gṛhe gṛhe samupadiśyeśvaraṁ prati manaḥ parāvarttanīyaṁ prabhau yīśukhrīṣṭe viśvasanīyaṁ
21 testifying to both Jews and Greeks repentance towards God, and faith towards our Lord Jesus Christ.
yihūdīyānām anyadeśīyalokānāñca samīpa etādṛśaṁ sākṣyaṁ dadāmi|
22 And now, behold, bound in my spirit I go to Jerusalem, not knowing what things shall happen to me in it;
paśyata sāmpratam ātmanākṛṣṭaḥ san yirūśālamnagare yātrāṁ karomi, tatra māmprati yadyad ghaṭiṣyate tānyahaṁ na jānāmi;
23 only that the Holy Spirit testifies to me in every city, saying that bonds and tribulations await me.
kintu mayā bandhanaṁ kleśaśca bhoktavya iti pavitra ātmā nagare nagare pramāṇaṁ dadāti|
24 But I make no account of [my] life [as] dear to myself, so that I finish my course, and the ministry which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the glad tidings of the grace of God.
tathāpi taṁ kleśamahaṁ tṛṇāya na manye; īśvarasyānugrahaviṣayakasya susaṁvādasya pramāṇaṁ dātuṁ, prabho ryīśoḥ sakāśāda yasyāḥ sevāyāḥ bhāraṁ prāpnavaṁ tāṁ sevāṁ sādhayituṁ sānandaṁ svamārgaṁ samāpayituñca nijaprāṇānapi priyān na manye|
25 And now, behold, I know that ye all, among whom I have gone about preaching the kingdom [of God], shall see my face no more.
adhunā paśyata yeṣāṁ samīpe'ham īśvarīyarājyasya susaṁvādaṁ pracāryya bhramaṇaṁ kṛtavān etādṛśā yūyaṁ mama vadanaṁ puna rdraṣṭuṁ na prāpsyatha etadapyahaṁ jānāmi|
26 Wherefore I witness to you this day, that I am clean from the blood of all,
yuṣmabhyam aham īśvarasya sarvvān ādeśān prakāśayituṁ na nyavartte|
27 for I have not shrunk from announcing to you all the counsel of God.
ahaṁ sarvveṣāṁ lokānāṁ raktapātadoṣād yannirdoṣa āse tasyādya yuṣmān sākṣiṇaḥ karomi|
28 Take heed therefore to yourselves, and to all the flock, wherein the Holy Spirit has set you as overseers, to shepherd the assembly of God, which he has purchased with the blood of his own.
yūyaṁ sveṣu tathā yasya vrajasyādhyakṣan ātmā yuṣmān vidhāya nyayuṅkta tatsarvvasmin sāvadhānā bhavata, ya samājañca prabhu rnijaraktamūlyena krītavāna tam avata,
29 [For] I know [this, ] that there will come in amongst you after my departure grievous wolves, not sparing the flock;
yato mayā gamane kṛtaeva durjayā vṛkā yuṣmākaṁ madhyaṁ praviśya vrajaṁ prati nirdayatām ācariṣyanti,
30 and from among your own selves shall rise up men speaking perverted things to draw away the disciples after them.
yuṣmākameva madhyādapi lokā utthāya śiṣyagaṇam apahantuṁ viparītam upadekṣyantītyahaṁ jānāmi|
31 Wherefore watch, remembering that for three years, night and day, I ceased not admonishing each one [of you] with tears.
iti heto ryūyaṁ sacaitanyāḥ santastiṣṭata, ahañca sāśrupātaḥ san vatsaratrayaṁ yāvad divāniśaṁ pratijanaṁ bodhayituṁ na nyavartte tadapi smarata|
32 And now I commit you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build [you] up and give [to you] an inheritance among all the sanctified.
idānīṁ he bhrātaro yuṣmākaṁ niṣṭhāṁ janayituṁ pavitrīkṛtalokānāṁ madhye'dhikārañca dātuṁ samartho ya īśvarastasyānugrahasya yo vādaśca tayorubhayo ryuṣmān samārpayam|
33 I have coveted [the] silver or gold or clothing of no one.
kasyāpi svarṇaṁ rūpyaṁ vastraṁ vā prati mayā lobho na kṛtaḥ|
34 Yourselves know that these hands have ministered to my wants, and to those who were with me.
kintu mama matsahacaralokānāñcāvaśyakavyayāya madīyamidaṁ karadvayam aśrāmyad etad yūyaṁ jānītha|
35 I have shewed you all things, that thus labouring [we] ought to come in aid of the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that he himself said, It is more blessed to give than to receive.
anena prakāreṇa grahaṇad dānaṁ bhadramiti yadvākyaṁ prabhu ryīśuḥ kathitavān tat smarttuṁ daridralokānāmupakārārthaṁ śramaṁ karttuñca yuṣmākam ucitam etatsarvvaṁ yuṣmānaham upadiṣṭavān|
36 And having said these things, he knelt down and prayed with them all.
etāṁ kathāṁ kathayitvā sa jānunī pātayitvā sarvaiḥ saha prārthayata|
37 And they all wept sore; and falling upon the neck of Paul they ardently kissed him,
tena te krandrantaḥ
38 specially pained by the word which he had said, that they would no more see his face. And they went down with him to the ship.
puna rmama mukhaṁ na drakṣyatha viśeṣata eṣā yā kathā tenākathi tatkāraṇāt śokaṁ vilāpañca kṛtvā kaṇṭhaṁ dhṛtvā cumbitavantaḥ| paścāt te taṁ potaṁ nītavantaḥ|
