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;

Y DESPUES que cesó el alboroto llamando Pablo los discípulos, habiéndoles exhortado y abrazado, se despidió, y partió para ir á Macedonia.

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

Y andado que hubo aquellas partes y exhortádoles con abundancia de palabra, vino á Grecia:

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.

[Donde] despues de haber estado tres meses, y habiendo de navegar á Siria, le fueron puestas asechanzas por los Judíos; y así tomó consejo de volverse por 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;

Y le acompañaron hasta Asia Sopater, Bereense; y Tesalonicenses, Aristarco, y Segundo; y Gayo de Derbe, y Timotéo; y Asianos, Tichico, y Trófimo.

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

Estos yendo delante, nos esperaron en 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.

Y nosotros, pasados los dias de los panes sin levadura, navegamos de Filipos, y vinimos á ellos á Troas en cinco dias, donde estuvimos siete dias.

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,

Y el [dia] primero de la semana, juntos los discípulos á partir el pan, Pablo les enseñaba, habiendo de partir al dia siguiente; y alargó el discurso hasta la media noche.

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

Y habia muchas lámparas en el aposento alto donde estaban juntos.

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.

Y un mancebo llamado Euticho, que estaba sentado en una ventana, tomado de un sueño profundo, como Pablo disputaba largamente, postrado del sueño, cayó desde el tercer piso abajo, y fué alzado muerto.

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

Entónces descendió Pablo, y derribóse sobre él, y abrazándole, dijo: No os alboroteis, que su alma está en él.

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,

Despues subiendo, y partiendo el pan, y gustando, habló largamente hasta el alba, y así partió.

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

Y llevaron al mozo vivo, y fueron consolados no poco.

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;

Y nosotros, subiendo en el navío navegamos á Ason, para recibir de allí á Pablo; porque así habia determinado venir por tierra.

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

Y como se juntó con nosotros en Ason, tomándole vinimos á Mitilene.

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,

Y navegando de allí, al [dia] siguiente llegamos delante de Chio, y al otro [dia] tomamos puerto en Samo: y habiendo reposado en Trogilio, al [dia] siguiente llegamos á Mileto.

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.

Porque Pablo se habia propuesto pasar adelante de Efeso, por no detenerse en Asia: porque se apresuraba por hacer el dia de Pentecostes, si le fuese posible, en Jerusalem.

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

Y enviando desde Mileto á Efeso, hizo llamar á los ancianos de la iglesia.

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;

Y cuando vinieron á él, les dijo: Vosotros sabeis cómo, desde el primer dia que entré en Asia, he estado con vosotros por todo el tiempo,

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

Sirviendo al Señor con toda humildad, y con lágrimas, y tentaciones, que me han venido por las asechanzas de los Judíos:

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,

Como nada que [os] fuese útil, he rehuido de anunciaros, y enseñaros públicamente, y por las casas,

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

Testificando á los Judíos y á los Gentiles arrepentimiento para con Dios, y la fé en nuestro Señor Jesu-Cristo.

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

Y ahora hé aquí, ligado yo en mi espíritu, voy á Jerusalem sin saber lo que allá me ha de acontecer:

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

Mas que el Espíritu Santo por todas las ciudades me da testimonio, diciendo, que prisiones y tribulaciones me esperan.

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.

Mas de ninguna cosa hago caso, ni estimo mi vida preciosa para mí mismo; solamente que acabe mi carrera con gozo, y el ministerio que recibí del Señor Jesus, para dar testimonio del Evangelio de la gracia de Dios.

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;

Y ahora hé aquí yo sé, que ninguno de todos vosotros, por quien he pasado predicando el reino de Dios, verá más mi rostro.

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

Por tanto yo os protesto el dia de hoy, que yo soy limpio de la sangre de todos:

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

Porque no he rehuido anunciaros todo el consejo de Dios.

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,

Por tanto mirad por vosotros, y por todo el rebaño en que el Espíritu Santo os ha puesto por obispos, para apacentar la iglesia del Señor, la cual ganó por su sangre.

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

Porque yo sé, que despues de mi partida entrarán en [medio de] vosotros graves lobos que no perdonarán al ganado.

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

Y de vosotros mismos se levantarán hombres, que hablen cosas perversas, para llevar discípulos tras sí.

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

Por tanto velad, acordándoos que por tres años, de noche y de dia, no he cesado de amonestar con lágrimas á cada uno.

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.

Y ahora, hermanos, os encomiendo á Dios, y á la palabra de su gracia; el cual es poderoso para sobreedificar, y daros heredad con todos los santificados.

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

La plata, ó el oro, ó el vestido, de nadie he codiciado.

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

Antes vosotros sabeis que para lo que me ha sido necesario, y á los que están conmigo, estas manos me han servido.

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.”

[En] todo os he enseñado, que trabajando así, es necesario sobrellevar á los enfermos, y tener presente las palabras del Señor Jesus, el cual dijo: Bienaventurada cosa es dar ántes que recibir.

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

Y como hubo dicho estas cosas, se puso de rodillas, y oró con todos ellos.

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

Entónces hubo un gran lloro de todos; y derribándose sobre el cuello de Pablo, le besaban,

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.

Doliéndose en gran manera por la palabra que dijo, que no habian de ver más su rostro. Y le acompañaron al navío.
