Atos 20 - Bíblia Online

Depois de cessar o tumulto, Paulo mandou chamar os discípulos e, tendo-os exortado, despediu-se e partiu para a Macedônia. 
Depois de haver atravessado aquelas regiões e feito muitas exortações, foi a Grécia, 
e passados três meses, determinou voltar pela Macedônia, por terem os judeus armado uma cilada contra ele, quando ia a embarcar para a Síria. 
Acompanharam-no Sópatro de Beréia, filho de Pirro, e dos de Tessalônica, Aristarco e Secundo, e Gaio de Derbe, e Timóteo, e dos da Ásia, Tíquico e Trófimo; 
estes, porém, foram adiante, e esperavam-nos em Trôade. 
Nós, depois dos dias dos pães asmos, navegamos de Filipos, e em cinco dias fomos ter com eles em Trôade, onde nos demoramos sete dias. 
No primeiro dia da semana, estando nós reunidos para partir o pão, Paulo, que havia de sair no dia seguinte, discutia com eles, e prolongou o seu discurso até a meia noite. 
Havia muitas lâmpadas no cenáculo onde nos achávamos reunidos. 
Um moço chamado Êutico, que estava sentado na janela, adormecendo profundamente enquanto Paulo prolongava mais o seu discurso, vencido pelo sono caiu do terceiro andar abaixo, e foi levantado morto. 
Descendo Paulo, debruçou-se sobre ele e, abraçando-o, disse: Não façais alvoroço; pois a sua alma está nele. 
Então subiu, partiu o pão e comeu, e falou-lhes largamente até o romper do dia; e assim se retirou. 
Levaram o moço vivo, e ficaram muito consolados. 
Nós, porém, tendo ido adiante a tomar a embarcação, navegamos para Assôs, com o intuito de ali receber a Paulo; pois assim tinha disposto, tencionando ele mesmo ir por terra. 
Quando nos alcançou em Assôs, recebemo-lo abordo e fomos a Mitilene; 
e navegando dali, chegamos no dia seguinte em frente a Quios, no outro tocamos em Samos, e um dia depois viemos a Mileto. 
Paulo havia determinado não tocar em Éfeso, para não se demorar na Ásia; pois apressava-se para estar em Jerusalém no dia de Pentecostes, se possível lhe fosse. 
De Mileto mandou a Éfeso chamar os presbíteros da igreja. 
Quando eles chegaram, disse-lhes: Vós sabeis como me tenho portado convosco sempre, desde o primeiro dia em que entrei na Ásia, 
servindo ao Senhor com toda a humildade, com lágrimas e com provações que me sobrevieram pelas ciladas dos judeus; 
como não me esquivei de vos anunciar coisa alguma que era proveitosa e de vo-la ensinar publicamente, e de casa em casa, 
testificando tanto a judeus como a gregos o arrependimento para com Deus e a fé em nosso Senhor Jesus. 
Agora eis que, constrangido no meu espírito, vou a Jerusalém, não sabendo o que ali me acontecerá, 
senão que o Espírito Santo me testifica de cidade em cidade que me esperam cadeias e tribulações. 
Porém não tenho a minha vida como coisa preciosa a mim mesmo, contanto que complete a minha carreira e o ministério que recebi do Senhor Jesus, para dar testemunho do Evangelho da graça de Deus. 
Agora eu sei que todos vós, por entre os quais passei proclamando o reino, não vereis mais a minha face. 
Portanto vos protesto hoje que estou limpo do sangue de todos; 
pois não me esquivei de vos anunciar todo o conselho de Deus. 
Atendei por vós, e por todo o rebanho sobre o qual o Espírito Santo vos constituiu bispos, para apascentardes a igreja de Deus, a qual ele adquiriu com seu próprio sangue. 
Eu sei que depois da minha partida virão a vós lobos ferozes que não pouparão o rebanho, 
e que dentre vós mesmos surgirão homens, falando coisas perversas para atrair os discípulos após si. 
Portanto vigiai, lembrando-vos que por três anos não cessei noite e dia de admoestar a cada um de vós com lágrimas. 
Agora vos encomendo a Deus e à palavra da sua graça, àquele que é poderoso para vos edificar e dar herança entre todos os que são santificados. 
De ninguém cobicei prata, nem ouro, nem vestes; 
vós mesmos sabeis que estas mãos proveram as minhas necessidades e as dos que estavam comigo. 
Em tudo vos dei o exemplo de que, assim trabalhando, é necessário socorrer os fracos e vos lembrar das palavras do Senhor Jesus, porquanto ele mesmo disse: Coisa mais bem-aventurada é dar do que receber. 
Tendo dito estas coisas, ajoelhando-se, orou com todos eles. 
Houve grande pranto entre todos e, lançando-se ao pescoço de Paulo, beijavam-no, 
entristecendo-se, sobretudo, por haver ele dito que não veriam mais a sua face. E eles o acompanharam até o navio. 

And after the noise had come to an end, Paul, having sent for the disciples and given them comfort, went away from them to Macedonia. 
And when he had gone through those parts and given them much teaching, he came into Greece. 
And when he had been there three months, because the Jews had made a secret design against him when he was about to take ship for Syria, he made a decision to go back through Macedonia. 
And Sopater of Beroea, the son of Pyrrhus, and Aristarchus and Secundus of Thessalonica, and Gaius of Derbe, and Timothy, and Tychicus and Trophimus of Asia, went with him as far as Asia. 
But these had gone before, and were waiting for us at Troas. 
And we went away from Philippi by ship after the days of unleavened bread, and came to them at Troas in five days; and we were there for seven days. 
And on the first day of the week, when we had come together for the holy meal, Paul gave them a talk, for it was his purpose to go away on the day after; and he went on talking till after the middle of the night. 
And there were a number of lights in the room where we had come together. 
And a certain young man named Eutychus, who was seated in the window, went into a deep sleep; and while Paul went on talking, being overcome by sleep, he had a fall from the third floor, and was taken up dead. 
And Paul went down and, falling on him, took him in his arms and said, Do not be troubled, for his life is in him. 
And when he had gone up, and had taken the broken bread, he went on talking to them for a long time, even till dawn, and then he went away. 
And they took the boy in, living, and were greatly comforted. 
But we, going before him by ship, went to Assos with the purpose of taking Paul in there: for so he had given orders, because he himself was coming by land. 
And when he came up with us at Assos, we took him in the ship and went on to Mitylene. 
And going from there by sea, we came on the day after opposite Chios, and touching at Samos on the day after that, we came on the third day to Miletus. 
For Paul's purpose was to go past Ephesus, so that he might not be kept in Asia; for he was going quickly, in order, if possible, to be at Jerusalem on the day of Pentecost. 
And from Miletus he sent to Ephesus for the rulers of the church. 
And when they had come, he said to them, You yourselves have seen what my life has been like all the time from the day when I first came into Asia, 
Doing the Lord's work without pride, through all the sorrow and troubles which came on me because of the evil designs of the Jews: 
And how I kept back nothing which might be of profit to you, teaching you publicly and privately, 
Preaching to Jews and to Greeks the need for a turning of the heart to God, and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. 
And now, as you see, I am going to Jerusalem, a prisoner in spirit, having no knowledge of what will come to me there: 
Only that the Holy Spirit makes clear to me in every town that prison and pains are waiting for me. 
But I put no value on my life, if only at the end of it I may see the work complete which was given to me by the Lord Jesus, to be a witness of the good news of the grace of God. 
And now I am conscious that you, among whom I have gone about preaching the kingdom, will not see my face again. 
And so I say to you this day that I am clean from the blood of all men. 
For I have not kept back from you anything of the purpose of God. 
Give attention to yourselves, and to all the flock which the Holy Spirit has given into your care, to give food to the church of God, for which he gave his blood. 
I am conscious that after I am gone, evil wolves will come in among you, doing damage to the flock; 
And from among yourselves will come men who will give wrong teaching, turning away the disciples after them. 
So keep watch, having in mind that for three years without resting I was teaching every one of you, day and night, with weeping. 
And now, I give you into the care of God and the word of his grace, which is able to make you strong and to give you your heritage among all the saints. 
I have had no desire for any man's silver or gold or clothing. 
You yourselves have seen that with these hands I got what was necessary for me and those who were with me. 
In all things I was an example to you of how, in your lives, you are to give help to the feeble, and keep in memory the words of the Lord Jesus, how he himself said, There is a greater blessing in giving than in getting. 
And having said these words, he went down on his knees in prayer with them all. 
And they were all weeping, falling on Paul's neck and kissing him, 
Being sad most of all because he had said that they would not see his face again. And so they went with him to the ship.
