1And after the uproar was ceased, Paul having sent for the disciples and exhorted them, took leave of them, and departed for to go into Macedonia. 2And when he had gone through those parts, and had given them much exhortation, he came into Greece. 3And when he had spent three months there, and a plot was laid against him by the Jews, as he was about to set sail for Syria, he determined to return through Macedonia. 4And there accompanied him as far as Asia Sopater of Beroea, the sonof Pyrrhus; and of the Thessalonians, Aristarchus and Secundus; and Gaius of Derbe, and Timothy; and of Asia, Tychicus and Trophimus. 5But these had gone before, and were waiting for us at Troas. 6And we sailed away from Philippi after the days of unleavened bread, and came unto them to Troas in five days; where we tarried seven days. 7And upon the first day of the week, when we were gathered together to break bread, Paul discoursed with them, intending to depart on the morrow; and prolonged his speech until midnight. 8And there were many lights in the upper chamber, where we were gathered together. 9And there sat in the window a certain young man named Eutychus, borne down with deep sleep; and as Paul discoursed yet longer, being borne down by his sleep he fell down from the third story, and was taken up dead. 10And Paul went down, and fell on him, and embracing him said, Make ye no ado; for his life is in him. 11And when he was gone up, and had broken the bread, and eaten, and had talked with them a long while, even till break of day, so he departed. 12And they brought the lad alive, and were not a little comforted. 13But we, going before to the ship, set sail for Assos, there intending to take in Paul: for so had he appointed, intending himself to go by land. 14And when he met us at Assos, we took him in, and came to Mitylene. 15And sailing from thence, we came the following day over against Chios; and the next day we touched at Samos; and the day after we came to Miletus. 16For Paul had determined to sail past Ephesus, that he might not have to spend time in Asia; for he was hastening, if it were possible for him, to be at Jerusalem the day of Pentecost. 17And from Miletus he sent to Ephesus, and called to him the elders of the church. 18And when they were come to him, he said unto them, Ye yourselves know, from the first day that I set foot in Asia, after what manner I was with you all the time, 19serving the Lord with all lowliness of mind, and with tears, and with trials which befell me by the plots of the Jews: 20how that I shrank not from declaring unto you anything that was profitable, and teaching you publicly, and from house to house, 21testifying both to Jews and to Greeks repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ. 22And now, behold, I go bound in the spirit unto Jerusalem, not knowing the things that shall befall me there: 23save that the Holy Ghost testifieth unto me in every city, saying that bonds and afflictions abide me. 24But I hold not my life of any account, as dear unto myself, so that I may accomplish my course, and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God. 25And now, behold, I know that ye all, among whom I went about preaching the kingdom, shall see my face no more. 26Wherefore I testify unto you this day, that I am pure from the blood of all men. 27For I shrank not from declaring unto you the whole counsel of God. 28Take heed unto yourselves, and to all the flock, in the which the Holy Ghost hath made you bishops, to feed the church of God, which he purchased with his own blood. 29I know that after my departing grievous wolves shall enter in among you, not sparing the flock; 30and from among your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away the disciples after them. 31Wherefore watch ye, remembering that by the space of three years I ceased not to admonish every one night and day with tears. 32And now I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build youup, and to give youthe inheritance among all them that are sanctified. 33I coveted no man’s silver, or gold, or apparel. 34Ye yourselves know that these hands ministered unto my necessities, and to them that were with me. 35In all things I gave you an example, how that so labouring ye ought to help the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he himself said, It is more blessed to give than to receive. 36And when he had thus spoken, he kneeled down, and prayed with them all. 37And they all wept sore, and fell on Paul’s neck, and kissed him, 38Sorrowing most of all for the word which he had spoken, that they should behold his face no more. And they brought him on his way unto the ship.
