Acts 20:33-38

33 1I coveted no one's silver or gold or apparel.
34 2You yourselves know that 3these hands ministered to my necessities and 4to those who were with me.
35 In all things 5I have shown you that 6by working hard in this way we must 7help the weak and 8remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he himself said, 'It is more blessed 9to give than to receive.'"
36 And when he had said these things, 10he knelt down and prayed with them all.
37 And 11there was much weeping on the part of all; 12they embraced Paul and 13kissed him,
38 being sorrowful most of all because of 14the word he had spoken, that they would not see his face again. And 15they accompanied him to the ship.
