Acts 20

1 And after the ceasing of the tumult, Paul having called near the disciples, and having embraced [them], went forth to go on to Macedonia;

And after the tumult was over, Paul sent for the disciples to him, and having embraced them, departed to go into Macedonia.

2 and having gone through those parts, and having exhorted them with many words, he came to Greece;

And having passed through those parts, and given them much exhortation, he came into Greece.

3 and having continued three months—a counsel of the Jews having been against him—being about to set forth to Syria, there came [to him] a resolution of returning through Macedonia.

And when he had spent three months there, the Jews having laid wait for him as he was going to embark for Syria, he determined to return by Macedonia.

4 And there were accompanying him to Asia, Sopater of Pyrrhus from Berea, and of Thessalonians Aristarchus and Secundus, and Gaius of Derbe, and Timotheus, and of Asians Tychicus and Trophimus;

And there accompanied him to Asia, Sopater the Berean, and of the Thessalonians Aristarchus and Secundus, and Gaius of Derbe, and Timothy: and the Asiatics,

5 these, having gone before, remained for us in Troas,

Tychicus and Trophimus, who went before and stayed for us at Troas.

6 and we sailed, after the days of the Unleavened [Bread], from Philippi, and came to them to Troas in five days, where we abided seven days.

And after the days of unleavened bread we sailed from Philippi, and came to them at Troas in five days, where we spent seven days.

7 And on the first [day] of the weeks, the disciples having been gathered together to break bread, Paul was discoursing to them, about to depart on the next day, he was also continuing the discourse until midnight,

And upon the first day of the week, when the disciples were assembled together to break bread, Paul being about to depart on the morrow, preached unto them, and continued his discourse till midnight.

8 and there were many lamps in the upper chamber where they were gathered together,

And there were many lamps in the upper room where they were assembled.

9 and there a certain youth was sitting, by name Eutychus, on the window—being borne down by a deep sleep, Paul discoursing long—he having sunk down from the sleep, fell down from the third story, and was lifted up dead.

And a young man named Eutychus, who sat in a window, falling into a deep sleep, as Paul was discoursing for a long time, sunk down and fell from the third story, and was taken up dead.

10 And Paul, having gone down, fell on him, and having embraced [him], said, “Make no tumult, for his life is in him”;

And Paul went down and leaned over him, and took him up and said, Be not disturbed; for his life is in him.

11 and having come up, and having broken bread, and having tasted, for a long time also having talked—until daylight, so he went forth,

Then he went up again, and having broken bread and eaten, and conversed with them a considerable time, even till break of day, he departed.

12 and they brought up the boy alive, and were comforted in no ordinary measure.

And they brought in the young man alive, and were not a little comforted.

13 And we having gone before to the ship, sailed to Assos, there intending to take in Paul, for so he had arranged, intending himself to go on foot;

But we went before to the ship, and sailed to Assos, being there to take in Paul: for so he had appointed, designing himself to go on foot.

14 and when he met with us at Assos, having taken him up, we came to Mitylene,

And as soon as he joined us at Assos, we took him in and came to Mitylene.

15 and there having sailed, on the next day we came opposite Chios, and the next day we arrived at Samos, and having remained in Trogyllium, on the following day we came to Miletus,

And sailing from thence we came the next day over against Chios; and the day following we arrived at Samos, and stopping at Trogyllium, we came the day after to Miletus.

16 for Paul decided to sail past Ephesus, that there may not be to him a loss of time in Asia, for he was hurrying, if it were possible for him, to be at Jerusalem on the day of the Pentecost.

For Paul had determined to sail by Ephesus, that he might not spend time in Asia: for he endeavoured, if it were possible, to be at Jerusalem on the day of Pentecost.

17 And from Miletus, having sent to Ephesus, he called for the elders of the assembly,

But he sent from Miletus to Ephesus, and called the elders of the church.

18 and when they were come to him, he said to them, “You know from the first day in which I came to Asia, how I was with you at all times;

And when they were come to him, he said unto them, Ye know in what manner I behaved among you all the time, from the first day that I came into Asia.

19 serving the LORD with all humility, and many tears, and temptations, that befell me in the counsels of the Jews against [me];

Serving the Lord with all humility, and many tears, and trials which befel me by the ambushes of the Jews.

20 how I kept back nothing of what things are profitable, not to declare to you, and to teach you publicly, and in every house,

And how I with-held nothing that was useful, but have declared it to you, and have taught you publicly and from house to house:

21 testifying fully both to Jews and Greeks, conversion toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.

testifying both to the Jews and Greeks, repentance towards God, and faith in our Lord Jesus Christ.

22 And now, behold, I—bound in the Spirit—go on to Jerusalem, not knowing the things that will befall me in it,

And now, being constrained by the spirit, behold I am going to Jerusalem, not knowing what will befal me there:

23 except that the Holy Spirit fully testifies in every city, saying that bonds and tribulations remain for me;

save that the holy Spirit testifieth in every city, that bonds and afflictions await me.

24 but I make account of none of these, neither do I count my life precious to myself, so that I finish my course with joy, and the ministry that I received from the Lord Jesus, to fully testify [to] the good news of the grace of God.

But none of these things move me, nor do I account my life dear, so that I may finish my course with joy, and the ministry which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God.

25 And now, behold, I have known that you will no longer see my face, among all you [to] whom I went preaching the Kingdom of God;

And now behold I know that ye all, among whom I have gone preaching the kingdom of God, shall see my face no more.

26 for this reason I take you to witness this day, that I [am] clear from the blood of all,

Wherefore I call you to witness this day, that I am clear from the blood of all men.

27 for I did not keep back from declaring to you all the counsel of God.

For I have not failed to declare unto you all the counsel of God.

28 Take heed, therefore, to yourselves, and to all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit made you overseers, to feed the Assembly of God that He acquired through His own blood,

Take heed therefore to yourselves, and to all the flock, in which the holy Spirit hath appointed you bishops, to feed the church of God, which He purchased with his own blood.

29 for I have known this, that there will enter in, after my departing, grievous wolves to you, not sparing the flock,

For I know this, that after my departure grievous wolves will enter in among you, not sparing the flock.

30 and there will arise men of your own selves, speaking perverse things, to draw away the disciples after them.

And from among yourselves shall men arise, speaking perverse things to draw away disciples after them.

31 Therefore, watch, remembering that three years, night and day, I did not cease with tears warning each one;

Watch therefore, remembering that for the space of three years I ceased not by night and by day to warn every one with tears.

32 and now, I commend you, brothers, to God, and to the word of His grace, that is able to build up, and to give you an inheritance among all those sanctified.

And now, my brethren, I recommend you to God, and to the word of his grace: who is able to edify you, and to give you an inheritance among all that are sanctified.

33 I coveted the silver or gold or clothing of no one;

I have coveted no one's silver, or gold, or apparel:

34 and you yourselves know that to my necessities, and to those who were with me, these hands ministered;

and ye yourselves know that these hands have ministred to my necessities, and to those that were with me.

35 I showed you all things, that, thus laboring, it is necessary to partake with the ailing, to also be mindful of the words of the Lord Jesus, that He Himself said: It is more blessed to give than to receive.”

I have shewed you in all things, that by labouring thus ye ought to support the infirm; and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, who said, It is more blessed to give than to receive.

36 And having said these things, having bowed his knees, with them all, he prayed,

And when he had said these things, he kneeled down, and prayed with them all.

37 and there came a great weeping to all, and having fallen on the neck of Paul, they were kissing him,

And they were all much grieved, and fell on Paul's neck, and kissed him: sorrowing most of all at the word which he spake,

38 sorrowing most of all for the word that he had said—that they are about to see his face no longer; and they were accompanying him to the ship.

that they should see his face no more. And they accompanied him to the ship.
