Act 20:1 After the disturbance ended, Paul sent for the disciples. When he had consoled and greeted them he went away to Macedonia.
Act 20:2 Passing through those areas and encouraging them with many words, he came into Greece.
Act 20:3 After he had spent three months there, the Judeans plotted against him as he was about to set out for Syria. So he decided instead to return through Macedonia.
Act 20:4 He was to be accompanied as far as the province of Asia by Sopater the son of Pyrrhus from Berea, Aristarchus and Secundus from Thessalonica, Gaius from Derbe, also Timothy, and Tychicus and Trophimus from the province of Asia.
Act 20:5 These people all went on ahead and waited for us in Troas.
Act 20:6 But we set sail from Philippi after the Feast of Unleavened Bread and met up with them at Troas five days later, where we stayed for seven days.
Act 20:7 Now on one of the Sabbaths when we gathered to share a meal, Paul debated with them. And since he intended to leave the next day, he extended his speech until midnight.
Act 20:8 There were many lamps in the upper room where we had gathered,
Act 20:9 and a certain youth named Eutychus, who was sitting in a window, sank into a deep sleep. As Paul went on and on, the still-sleeping youth fell down from the third story and was found dead.
Act 20:10 But Paul went down, threw himself upon him and took him in his arms. “Don’t panic!” he said, “He is alive!”
Act 20:11 Then Paul went back upstairs to eat, and he spoke for a long time, up to daybreak, then he left.
Act 20:12 The very-relieved people took the youth home alive.
Act 20:13 We went on ahead to the ship and set out for Assos, where we intended to pick up Paul, because it had been agreed that he would go there on foot.
Act 20:14 When he met up with us at Assos we took him into Mitylene.
Act 20:15 Sailing on from there, we arrived the next day across from Chios. The day after that we arrived at Samos, and the next day we came to Miletus.
Act 20:16 Paul had decided to sail past Ephesus so that he would not be detained in the province of Asia, because if he hurried he thought it might be possible for him to reach Jerusalem by the Day of Pentecost.
Act 20:17 Then from Miletus he sent for the elders of the Congregation in Ephesus.
Act 20:18 When they came to him he said to them, “You are well aware of how I always behaved among you from the first day I set foot in the province of Asia.
Act 20:19 I served the Master in humility, and through many tears and the trials I endured due to the plots of the Judeans.
Act 20:20 Under no circumstances did I ever hold back any vital information from you. I taught you in public places and private homes,
Act 20:21 solemnly charging both Judeans and non-Judeans with changing their minds toward God and putting their trust in our Master Jesus.
Act 20:22 “And now, you must understand that I am bound by the Spirit to go to Jerusalem, and I don’t know what will happen to me there.
Act 20:23 What’s more, the Holy Spirit has assured me that in every city, confinement and suffering await me.
Act 20:24 But I have nothing to say about it, and I don’t consider my life more precious than finishing the race and fulfilling the service I was given from Master Jesus: to solemnly testify to the Gospel of the favor of God.
Act 20:25 “I now know that none of you among whom I have gone around proclaiming the Kingdom will see my face again.
Act 20:26 For that reason I testify to you this day that I am not liable for anyone’s life,
Act 20:27 because under no circumstances did I ever try to get out of telling you the whole counsel of God.
Act 20:28 “Pay close attention to yourselves and to the whole flock of which the Holy Spirit appointed you as guardians. Shepherd the Congregation of God, which he purchased with his own blood.
Act 20:29 I know that as soon as I’m out of reach, oppressive wolves will invade you and show no mercy to the flock.
Act 20:30 Men will also rise up from among you and say twisted things in order to acquire disciples to follow them.
Act 20:31 So keep your eyes open, and remember that for three years, day and night, I never stopped warning each of you, with tears.
Act 20:32 And now I present you to God and to the Word about his favor, which is able to build you up so you can enjoy the inheritance of all who have been set apart for divine service.
Act 20:33 “I have not wanted to take anyone’s silver, gold, or clothing.
Act 20:34 You know that with my own hands I have supplied my own needs as well as those of my companions.
Act 20:35 By my example I have demonstrated to all of you how you must work and support the infirm. And remember what Master Jesus said: “There is more joy in giving than in receiving.”
Act 20:36 Having said these things, he knelt to pray with them.
Act 20:37 They all cried and cried, hugging and kissing Paul fondly,
Act 20:38 and were especially grieved at what he had said about them not seeing his face again. Then they sent him off to the ship.

Act 20:1 μετα δε το παυσασθαι τον θορυβον μεταπεμψαμενος ὁ παυλος τους μαθητας και παρακαλεσας ασπασαμενος εξηλθεν πορευεσθαι εις μακεδονιαν
Act 20:2 διελθων δε τα μερη εκεινα και παρακαλεσας αυτους λογω πολλω ηλθεν εις την ἑλλαδα
Act 20:3 ποιησας τε μηνας τρεις γενομενης επιβουλης αυτω ὑπο των ιουδαιων μελλοντι αναγεσθαι εις την συριαν εγενετο γνωμης του ὑποστρεφειν δια μακεδονιας
Act 20:4 συνειπετο δε αυτω σωπατρος πυρρου βεροιαιος θεσσαλονικεων δε αρισταρχος και σεκουνδος και γαϊος δερβαιος και τιμοθεος ασιανοι δε τυχικος και τροφιμος
Act 20:5 οὑτοι δε προελθοντες εμενον ἡμας εν τρωαδι
Act 20:6 ἡμεις δε εξεπλευσαμεν μετα τας ἡμερας των αζυμων απο φιλιππων και ηλθομεν προς αυτους εις την τρωαδα αχρι ἡμερων πεντε ὁπου διετριψαμεν ἡμερας ἑπτα
Act 20:7 εν δε τη μια των σαββατων συνηγμενων ἡμων κλασαι αρτον ὁ παυλος διελεγετο αυτοις μελλων εξιεναι τη επαυριον παρετεινεν τε τον λογον μεχρι μεσονυκτιου
Act 20:8 ησαν δε λαμπαδες ἱκαναι εν τω ὑπερωω οὑ ημεν συνηγμενοι

Act 20:10 καταβας δε ὁ παυλος επεπεσεν αυτω και συμπεριλαβων ειπεν μη θορυβεισθε ἡ γαρ ψυχη αυτου εν αυτω εστιν
Act 20:11 αναβας δε και κλασας τον αρτον και γευσαμενος εφ᾽ ἱκανον τε ὁμιλησας αχρι αυγης οὑτως εξηλθεν
Act 20:12 ηγαγον δε τον παιδα ζωντα και παρεκληθησαν ου μετριως
Act 20:13 ἡμεις δε προελθοντες επι το πλοιον ανηχθημεν επι την ασσον εκειθεν μελλοντες αναλαμβανειν τον παυλον οὑτως γαρ διατεταγμενος ην μελλων αυτος πεζευειν
Act 20:14 ὡς δε συνεβαλλεν ἡμιν εις την ασσον αναλαβοντες αυτον ηλθομεν εις μιτυληνην
Act 20:15 κακειθεν αποπλευσαντες τη επιουση κατηντησαμεν αντικρυς χιου τη δε ἑτερα παρεβαλομεν εις σαμον τη δε εχομενη ηλθομεν εις μιλητον
Act 20:16 κεκρικει γαρ ὁ παυλος παραπλευσαι την εφεσον ὁπως μη γενηται αυτω χρονοτριβησαι εν τη ασια εσπευδεν γαρ ει δυνατον ειη αυτω την ἡμεραν της πεντηκοστης γενεσθαι εις ἱεροσολυμα
Act 20:17 απο δε της μιλητου πεμψας εις εφεσον μετεκαλεσατο τους πρεσβυτερους της εκκλησιας
Act 20:18 ὡς δε παρεγενοντο προς αυτον ειπεν αυτοις ὑμεις επιστασθε απο πρωτης ἡμερας αφ᾽ ἡς επεβην εις την ασιαν πως μεθ᾽ ὑμων τον παντα χρονον εγενομην
Act 20:19 δουλευων τω κυριω μετα πασης ταπεινοφροσυνης και δακρυων και πειρασμων των συμβαντων μοι εν ταις επιβουλαις των ιουδαιων
Act 20:20 ὡς ουδεν ὑπεστειλαμην των συμφεροντων του μη αναγγειλαι ὑμιν και διδαξαι ὑμας δημοσια και κατ᾽ οικους
Act 20:21 διαμαρτυρομενος ιουδαιοις τε και ἑλλησιν την εις θεον μετανοιαν και πιστιν εις τον κυριον ἡμων ιησουν
Act 20:22 και νυν ιδου δεδεμενος εγω τω πνευματι πορευομαι εις ιερουσαλημ τα εν αυτη συναντησοντα μοι μη ειδως
Act 20:23 πλην ὁτι το πνευμα το ἁγιον κατα πολιν διαμαρτυρεται μοι λεγον ὁτι δεσμα και θλιψεις με μενουσιν
Act 20:24 αλλ᾽ ουδενος λογου ποιουμαι την ψυχην τιμιαν εμαυτω ὡς τελειωσαι τον δρομον μου και την διακονιαν ἡν ελαβον παρα του κυριου ιησου διαμαρτυρασθαι το ευαγγελιον της χαριτος του θεου
Act 20:25 και νυν ιδου εγω οιδα ὁτι ουκετι οψεσθε το προσωπον μου ὑμεις παντες εν οἱς διηλθον κηρυσσων την βασιλειαν

Act 20:32 και τα νυν παρατιθεμαι ὑμας τω θεω και τω λογω της χαριτος αυτου τω δυναμενω οικοδομησαι και δουναι την κληρονομιαν εν τοις ἡγιασμενοις πασιν
Act 20:33 αργυριου η χρυσιου η ἱματισμου ουδενος επεθυμησα
Act 20:34 αυτοι γινωσκετε ὁτι ταις χρειαις μου και τοις ουσιν μετ᾽ εμου ὑπηρετησαν αἱ χειρες αὑται
Act 20:35 παντα ὑπεδειξα ὑμιν ὁτι οὑτως κοπιωντας δει αντιλαμβανεσθαι των ασθενουντων μνημονευειν τε των λογων του κυριου ιησου ὁτι αυτος ειπεν μακαριον εστιν μαλλον διδοναι η λαμβανειν
