\subsection{Acts 20} \VS{1} Now after the turmoil ceased, Paul having sent for the disciples and having exhorted [them], having greeted [them], he went out to be going to Macedonia. \VS{2} Now having come through that region and having exhorted them with many word[s] he came to Hellada. \VS{3} And having done three months [there], [a] plot having come to pass against him by the Jews when [he was] [about] to go up to Syria, [his] intention became to return through Macedonia. \VS{4} So Sopatros of Pyrros Beraios accompanied him, and Apistarches and Sekoundos of the Thessalonikans, and Gaios Debraios and Timothy, and the Asians Tuchnikos and Trophimos. \VS{5} Now these, having come, remained with us in Troada. \VS{6} So we sailed after the days of unleavened [bread] from Phillipi, and we came to them in Troada until five days, where we stayed [for] seven days. \VS{7} Now on the first [day] of the Sabbaths when they were gathered to break bread, Paul was speaking to them, being [about] to journey on the morrow, and he was extending the word until midnight. \VS{8} Now there were many lamps in the upper room where they were gathered. \VS{9} Now a certain young [man] by name Eutychus, sitting in the window, being overwhelmed by [a] deep sleep, while Paul was speaking more, having been brought down by sleep, he fell from the third story down and was taken up dead. \VS{10} So having come down, Paul fell upon him, and embracing [him] said: Be not being distressed, for his psyche-life\fnPsyche{} is in him. \VS{11} so having gone up and having broken bread and having partaken, and having conversed even more until dawn, thus he left. \VS{12} So they brought [up] the child zoe-living\fnZoe{}, and they were comforted not moderately. \VS{13} Now we having gone on by boat were brought to Assos, there intending to be receiving Paul. For thus had he directed, intending himself to be traveling on foot. \VS{14} Now as he was meeting us in Assos, having received him we went to Mitulene. \VS{15} And having sailed we arrived on the next [day] opposite Chios, and on the next we approached to Samos, and on the next we came to Miletos. \VS{16} For Paul had decided to sail past Ephesus, in order that it not come to pass to him to lose time in Asia. For he was hurrying --- if it might be possible to him --- to come to be in Jerusalem [on] the day of Pentecost. \VS{17} So from Miletus having sent to Ephesus, he summoned the elders of the assembly\fnEkklhsia{}. \VS{18} Now as they were arriving to him, he said to them: You know, from [the] first day from which I set foot in Asia, how I came to be with you the whole time, \VS{19} slaving to the Lord with all humblemindedness and tears and tests of those [things] having happened to me in the plots of the Jews, \VS{20} as I kept silent nothing being of profit [to you], having proclaimed to you and having taught you publicly and [house] by house, \VS{21} witnessing to both Jews and Greeks the repentance to God and belief in our Lord Jesus. \VS{22} And now behold I being bound in the spirit, I go to Jerusalem, the [things] happening to me not knowing, \VS{23} except that the Holy Spirit [city] by city testifies to me saying that bonds and distresses await me. \VS{24} But of no account do I make [my] psyche-life\fnPsyche{} of great value to myself as I complete my course and the (life of) service that I received from the Lord Jesus, to be testifying the good-news of the grace of God. \VS{25} And now behold I know that you will no longer see my face, you all among whom I came through proclaiming the kingdom. \VS{26} Therefore I testify to you in this day that I am clean from [the] blood of all. \VS{27} For I was not silent, having proclaimed all the intention of God to you. \VS{28} Be paying attention to yourselves and to all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit has placed you overseers, to be shepherding the assembly\fnEkklhsia{} of [the] Lord\footnote{``[the] lord" \papyrus{74} D; ``God" \sinaiticus{}B; ``[the] lord and God" \koine }, which he acquired through his own blood. \VS{29} I know that there will come after my departure savage wolves among you not sparing the flock. \VS{30} And from among you yourselves there will arise men speaking distortions, to be drawing away the disciples after them. \VS{31} Therefore be being alert, remembering that [for] three years night and day I did not cease to be admonishing each one with tears. \VS{32} And now I commit you to the Lord, and to the word of his grace being able to build and to give the inheritance in all those being made holy. \VS{33} Silver or gold or garments I did not desire. \VS{34} You yourselves know that these hands served to my needs and to those being with me. \VS{35} I showed everything to you, that having labored thusly is it necessary to be helping the feeble, and to be remembering the words of the Lord Jesus, that he said: It is blessed to be giving rather than to be receiving. \VS{36} And having said these [things], having knelt with them all, they prayed. \VS{37} Now much weeping came to pass on all, and having fallen upon Paul's neck they were kissing him, \VS{38} suffering the most pain upon the word which he spoke, that they were [about] to be no longer seeing his face. So they accompanied him to the boat.
