9. And G1161 there sat G2521 in G1909 a window G2376 a certain G5100 young man G3494 named G3686 Eutychus G2161 , being fallen into G2702 a deep G901 sleep G5258 : and as Paul G3972 was G1909 long G4119 preaching G1256 , he sunk down G2702 with G575 sleep G5258 , and fell G4098 down G2736 from G575 the G3588 third loft G5152 , and G2532 was taken up G142 dead G3498 .

|
10. And G1161 Paul G3972 went down G2597 , and fell on G1968 him G846 , and G2532 embracing G4843 him said G2036 , Trouble not yourselves G2350 G3361 ; for G1063 his G846 life G5590 is G2076 in G1722 him G846 .
|
|
11. Then he returned upstairs, broke the bread, and ate; after a long conversation that lasted until daybreak, he departed.
|
11. When G1161 he therefore was come up again G305 , and G2532 had broken G2806 bread G740 , and G2532 eaten G1089 , and G5037 talked G3656 a long while G1909 G2425 , even till G891 break of day G827 , so G3779 he departed G1831 .

14. And G1161 when G5613 he met G4820 with us G2254 at G1519 Assos G789 , we took him in G353 G846 , and came G2064 to G1519 Mitylene G3412 .
|
|
15. We sailed away from there on the next day and reached a point off Chios, and a day later we reached Samos, and on the following day we arrived at Miletus.
|
15. And we sailed thence G2547 G636 , and came G2658 the G3588 next G1966 day over against G481 Chios G5508 ; and G1161 the G3588 next G2087 day we arrived G3846 at G1519 Samos G4544 , and G2532 tarried G3306 at G1722 Trogyllium G5175 ; and the G3588 next G2192 day we came G2064 to G1519 Miletus G3399 .
|
|
16. Paul had decided to sail past Ephesus in order not to lose time in the province of Asia, for he was hurrying to be in Jerusalem, if at all possible, for the day of Pentecost.
|
16. For G1063 Paul G3972 had determined G2919 to sail by G3896 Ephesus G2181 , because G3704 he G846 would G1096 not G3361 spend the time G5551 in G1722 Asia G773 : for G1063 he hasted G4692 , if G1487 it were G2258 possible G1415 for him G846 , to be G1096 at G1519 Jerusalem G2414 the G3588 day G2250 of Pentecost G4005 .
|
|
17. From Miletus he had the presbyters of the church at Ephesus summoned.
|
17. And G1161 from G575 Miletus G3399 he sent G3992 to G1519 Ephesus G2181 , and called G3333 the G3588 elders G4245 of the G3588 church G1577 .
|
|
18. When they came to him, he addressed them, "You know how I lived among you the whole time from the day I first came to the province of Asia.
|
18. And G1161 when G5613 they were come G3854 to G4314 him G846 , he said G2036 unto them G846 , Ye G5210 know G1987 , from G575 the first G4413 day G2250 that G575 G3739 I came G1910 into G1519 Asia G773 , after what manner G4459 I have been G1096 with G3326 you G5216 at all G3956 seasons G5550 ,
|
|
19. I served the Lord with all humility and with the tears and trials that came to me because of the plots of the Jews,
|
19. Serving G1398 the G3588 Lord G2962 with G3326 all G3956 humility of mind G5012 , and G2532 with many G4183 tears G1144 , and G2532 temptations G3986 , which befell G4819 me G3427 by G1722 the G3588 lying in wait G1917 of the G3588 Jews G2453 :
|
|
20. and I did not at all shrink from telling you what was for your benefit, or from teaching you in public or in your homes.
|
20. And how G5613 I kept back G5288 nothing G3762 that was profitable G4851 unto you G3361 , but have showed G312 you G5213 , and G2532 have taught G1321 you G5209 publicly G1219 , and G2532 from house to house G2596 G3624 ,
|
|
21. I earnestly bore witness for both Jews and Greeks to repentance before God and to faith in our Lord Jesus.
|
21. Testifying G1263 both G5037 to the Jews G2453 , and G2532 also to the Greeks G1672 , repentance G3341 toward G1519 God G2316 , and G2532 faith G4102 toward G1519 our G2257 Lord G2962 Jesus G2424 Christ G5547 .
|
|
22. But now, compelled by the Spirit, I am going to Jerusalem. What will happen to me there I do not know,
|
22. And G2532 now G3568 , behold G2400 , I G1473 go G4198 bound G1210 in the G3588 spirit G4151 unto G1519 Jerusalem G2419 , not G3361 knowing G1492 the things that shall befall G4876 me G3427 there G1722 G846 :
|
|
23. except that in one city after another the holy Spirit has been warning me that imprisonment and hardships await me.
|
23. Save G4133 that G3754 the G3588 Holy G40 Ghost G4151 witnesseth G1263 in every city G2596 G4172 , saying G3004 that G3754 bonds G1199 and G2532 afflictions G2347 abide G3306 me G3165 .
|
|
24. Yet I consider life of no importance to me, if only I may finish my course and the ministry that I received from the Lord Jesus, to bear witness to the gospel of God's grace.
|
24. But G235 none of these things move me G4160 G3056 G3762 , neither G3761 count G2192 I my G3450 life G5590 dear G5093 unto myself G1683 , so that G5613 I might finish G5048 my G3450 course G1408 with G3326 joy G5479 , and G2532 the G3588 ministry G1248 , which G3739 I have received G2983 of G3844 the G3588 Lord G2962 Jesus G2424 , to testify G1263 the G3588 gospel G2098 of the G3588 grace G5485 of God G2316 .
|
|
25. "But now I know that none of you to whom I preached the kingdom during my travels will ever see my face again.
|
25. And G2532 now G3568 , behold G2400 , I G1473 know G1492 that G3754 ye G5210 all G3956 , among G1722 whom G3739 I have gone G1330 preaching G2784 the G3588 kingdom G932 of God G2316 , shall see G3700 my G3450 face G4383 no more G3765 .
|
|
26. And so I solemnly declare to you this day that I am not responsible for the blood of any of you,
|
26. Wherefore G1352 I take you to record G3143 G5213 this G4594 day G2250 , that G3754 I G1473 am pure G2513 from G575 the G3588 blood G129 of all G3956 men.
|
|
27. for I did not shrink from proclaiming to you the entire plan of God.
|
27. For G1063 I have not G3756 shunned G5288 to G3361 declare G312 unto you G5213 all G3956 the G3588 counsel G1012 of God G2316 .
|
|
28. Keep watch over yourselves and over the whole flock of which the holy Spirit has appointed you overseers, in which you tend the church of God that he acquired with his own blood.
|
28. Take heed G4337 therefore G3767 unto yourselves G1438 , and G2532 to all G3956 the G3588 flock G4168 , over G1722 the which G3739 the G3588 Holy G40 Ghost G4151 hath made G5087 you G5209 overseers G1985 , to feed G4165 the G3588 church G1577 of God G2316 , which G3739 he hath purchased G4046 with G1223 his own G2398 blood G129 .
|
|
29. I know that after my departure savage wolves will come among you, and they will not spare the flock.
|
29. For G1063 I G1473 know G1492 this G5124 , that G3754 after G3326 my G3450 departing G867 shall grievous G926 wolves G3074 enter in G1525 among G1519 you G5209 , not G3361 sparing G5339 the G3588 flock G4168 .
|
|
30. And from your own group, men will come forward perverting the truth to draw the disciples away after them.
|
30. Also G2532 of G1537 your own selves G5216 G846 shall men G435 arise G450 , speaking G2980 perverse things G1294 , to draw away G645 disciples G3101 after G3694 them G846 .
|
|
31. So be vigilant and remember that for three years, night and day, I unceasingly admonished each of you with tears.
|
31. Therefore G1352 watch G1127 , and remember G3421 , that G3754 by the space of three years G5148 I ceased G3973 not G3756 to warn G3560 every G1538 one G1520 night G3571 and G2532 day G2250 with G3326 tears G1144 .
|
|
32. And now I commend you to God and to that gracious word of his that can build you up and give you the inheritance among all who are consecrated.
|
32. And G2532 now G3569 , brethren G80 , I commend G3908 you G5209 to God G2316 , and G2532 to the G3588 word G3056 of his G846 grace G5485 , which is able G1410 to build you up G2026 , and G2532 to give G1325 you G5213 an inheritance G2817 among G1722 all G3956 them which are sanctified G37 .
|
|
33. I have never wanted anyone's silver or gold or clothing.
|
33. I have coveted G1937 no man G3762 's silver G694 , or G2228 gold G5553 , or G2228 apparel G2441 .
|
|
34. You know well that these very hands have served my needs and my companions.
|
34. Yea G1161 , ye G846 yourselves know G1097 , that G3754 these G3778 hands G5495 have ministered G5256 unto my G3450 necessities G5532 , and G2532 to them that were G5607 with G3326 me G1700 .
|
|
35. In every way I have shown you that by hard work of that sort we must help the weak, and keep in mind the words of the Lord Jesus who himself said, 'It is more blessed to give than to receive.'"
|
35. I have showed G5263 you G5213 all things G3956 , how that G3754 so G3779 laboring G2872 ye ought G1163 to support G482 the G3588 weak G770 , and G5037 to remember G3421 the G3588 words G3056 of the G3588 Lord G2962 Jesus G2424 , how G3754 he G848 said G2036 , It is G2076 more G3123 blessed G3107 to give G1325 than G2228 to receive G2983 .
|
|
36. When he had finished speaking he knelt down and prayed with them all.
|
36. And G2532 when he had thus G5023 spoken G2036 , he kneeled down G5087 G846 G1119 , and prayed G4336 with G4862 them G846 all G3956 .
|
|
37. They were all weeping loudly as they threw their arms around Paul and kissed him,
|
37. And G1161 they all wept sore G1096 G2425 G2805 G3956 , and G2532 fell G1968 on G1909 Paul G3972 's neck G5137 , and kissed G2705 him G846 ,
|
|
38. for they were deeply distressed that he had said that they would never see his face again. Then they escorted him to the ship.
|
38. Sorrowing G3600 most of all G3122 for G1909 the G3588 words G3056 which G3739 he spake G2046 , that G3754 they should G3195 see G2334 his G848 face G4383 no more G3765 . And G1161 they accompanied G4311 him G846 unto G1519 the G3588 ship G4143 .
