1 After and the to be restrained the tumult, having called to the Paul the disciples, and having embraced, he went out to go into the Macedonia.
2 Having passed through and the parts those, and having exhorted them with a word great, he went into the Greece;
3 having continued and months three, being formed him a plot against by the Jews, being about to sail into the Syria, came a resolution of the to return through Macedonia.
4 Went with and him as far as the Asia Sopater of Pyrrhus a Berean. Of Thessalonians and, Aristarchus and Secundus, and Gaius of Derbe and Timothy; Asiatics and, Tychicus and Trophimus.
5 These going before awaited us in Troas;
6 we but sailed out after the days of the unleavened cakes from Philippi, and came to them into the Troas in days five, where we remained days seven.
7 In and the first of the sabbaths, having been assembled of us to break bread, the Paul discoursed to them, being about to depart on the morrow; continued and the discourse till midnight.
8 Were and lamps many in the upper room, where we were assembled.
9 Sitting and certain youth, by name Eutychus, in the window, being overpowered with sleep deep, discoursing the Paul for a longer time, having been overcome from the sleep, fell from the third story down, and was taken up dead.
10 Having gone down and the Paul fell upon him, and having embraced said: Not be you troubled; the for life of him in him is.
11 Having come up and, and having broken bread and having tasted, for a longer time and having conversed till daybreak, so he departed.
12 They brought and the youth living, and were comforted not a little.
13 We but going before to the ship, sailed to the Assos, there intending to take in again the Paul; so for it was having been arranged, being about himself to go on foot.
14 When and he met with us at the Assos, having again received him we came to Mitylene;
15 and thence having sailed away, on the morrow we came opposite Chios. In the and another we touched at Samos; and having remained in Troyllium, in the following we came to Miletus.
16 Had determined for the Paul to sail by the Ephesus, so that not it might be for him to spend time in the Asia; he was hastening for, if possible it was for him, the day of the pentecost to be in Jerusalem.
17 From and the Miletus having sent to Ephesus he called for the elders of the congregation.
18 When and they were come to him, he said to them: You know, from first day in which I entered into the Asia, how with you the whole time I was,
19 serving the Lord with all lowliness and tears and temptations, of those having happened to me by the plots of the Jews;
20 how nothing I kept back of that being profitable, the not to declare to you and to teach you publicly and in houses;
21 earnestly testifying to Jews both and Greeks the towards the God reformation, and faith that towards the Lord of us Jesus Anointed.
22 And now lo, having been bound I in the spirit, to go to Jerusalem, the things in her shall be happening to me not knowing,
23 except that the spirit the holy every city witnesses to me, saying, that bonds me and afflictions await.
24 But of no account I make, nor I the life of me valuable to myself, so that to finish the course of me with joy, and the services which I received from the Lord Jesus, to earnestly declare the glad tidings of the favor of the God.
25 And now lo, I know, that no longer will see the face of me you all, among whom I have gone about proclaiming the kingdom of the God.
26 Therefore I testify to you in this day, that clean I from the blood of all;
27 not for I kept back of the not to declare to you all the will of the God.
28 Take heed therefore to yourselves and to all the flock, in which you the spirit the holy placed overseers, to feed the congregation of the Lord, which he purchased through the blood of the own.
29 I for know this, that shall enter after the departure of me wolves rapacious among you, not sparing the flock,
30 and from yourselves will arise men speaking perverse things, the to draw away the disciples after them.
31 Therefore watch you, remembering, that three years night and day not I ceased with tears admonishing one each.
32 And now I commend you, brethren, to the God and to the word of the favor of him, to that being able to build up, and to give you an inheritance among those having been sanctified all.
33 Silver or gold or raiment of no one I coveted;
34 yourselves you know; that the necessities of me and those being with me supplied the hands these.
35 All these I pointed out to you, that so laboring it is necessary to aid those being weak, to remember and the words of the Lord Jesus, that he said: Blessed it is more to give than to receive.
36 And these things having said, having placed the knees of himself, with all those he prayed.
37 Much and was weeping of all; and having fallen on the neck of the Paul, they affectionately kissed him;
38 sorrowing most of all for the word which he spoke, that no more, they are about the face of him to see. They accompanied and him to the ship.
1 After the uproar ceased Paul sent for the disciples. He encouraged them. Then he left for Macedonia.
2 He went to Greece after traveling through the area giving encouragement.
3 After three months he set sail for Syria. He decided to return through Macedonia. He left there because the Jews formed a plot against him.
4 Those who accompanied him as far as Asia: Sopater of Beroea, the son of Pyrrhus; and of the Thessalonians, Aristarchus and Secundus; and Gaius of Derbe, and Timothy; and of Asia, Tychicus and Trophimus.
5 They left early and were waiting for us at Troas.
6 We sailed away from Philippi after the days of unleavened bread. Five days later we met them at Troas, where we stayed seven days.
7 On the first day of the week, when we were gathered together to break bread, Paul spoke to them. Intending to depart the next morning he prolonged his speech until midnight.
8 There were many lights in the upper chamber where we gathered.
9 A young man named Eutychus sat in the window. He was very sleepy. Pauls talk was long and he fell asleep. He fell down from the third story, and was taken up dead.
10 Paul went down and fell on him. He embraced him and said: »Do not be troubled for he lives.«
11 He went up and they broke bread and ate. He talked with them a long time until morning. Then he left.
12 The people took the young man home alive for they were greatly comforted.
13 We went ahead to the ship and set sail for Assos. We intended to take Paul on board for he had arranged to go there on foot.
14 He met us at Assos and journeyed to Mitylene.
15 We sailed from there to Chios and then to Samos. One day later we went to Miletus.
16 Paul decided to sail past Ephesus so he might not spend time in Asia. He was in a hurry to be at Jerusalem the day of Pentecost.
17 At Miletus he sent to Ephesus, and called the elders of the congregation to him.
18 When they arrived he said: »You know from the first day that I set foot in Asia, I was with you all the time,
19 serving the Lord with all lowliness of mind, and with tears, and with trials that came on me by the plots of the Jews.
20 »I did not shrink from declaring to you anything that was profitable, and teaching you publicly, and from house to house.
21 »I witnessed to both Jews and to Greeks about repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.
22 »I am compelled by the spirit to go to Jerusalem, not knowing the things that will happen to me there.
23 »Holy Spirit warns me that in every city, prison and hardships are facing me there.
24 »I do not consider my life of any account. It is not dear to me so that I may finish the race, and I may accomplish the ministry I received from the Lord Jesus, to preach the good news of the grace of God.
25 »I know all of you and have preached the kingdom with you. But you will not see me again.
26 »I declare to you today that I am innocent of the blood of all men.
27 »I did not shrink from telling you the entire will of God.
28 »Be on guard for yourselves and the flock that the Holy Spirit has made you overseers. Feed the Congregation of God that he purchased with the blood of his own Son.
29 »I know that after my departing grievous wolves will enter in among you, not sparing the flock.
30 »Such men will arise from among you speaking perverse things to draw away the disciples after them.
31 »Be on guard! Remember I did not cease for three years to admonish you day and night with tears.
32 »Now I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace. This is able to build you up, and to give you the inheritance among all them that are sanctified.
33 »I coveted no mans silver, or gold, or clothes.
34 »You know that my own hands ministered to my necessities, and to those who were with me.
35 »In all things I gave you an example. You by laboring should help the weak. Remember the words of the Lord Jesus: It is more blessed to give than to receive.«
36 When he had spoken he kneeled down and prayed with them all.
37 They all wept profusely, and fell on Pauls neck and kissed him. embraced himhugged him (Genesis 45:14)
38 What grieved them most was his statement that they would not see him again. They accompanied him to the ship.
