English Standard Version ESV
New International Version NIV
22 And now, behold, I am going to Jerusalem, constrained by the Spirit, not knowing what will happen to me there,
22
“And now, compelled by the Spirit, I am going to Jerusalem, not knowing what will happen to me there.
23 except that the Holy Spirit testifies to me in every city that imprisonment and afflictions await me.
23
I only know that in every city the Holy Spirit warns me that prison and hardships are facing me.
24 But I do not account my life of any value nor as precious to myself, if only I may finish my course and the ministry that I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God.
24
However, I consider my life worth nothing to me; my only aim is to finish the race and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given me—the task of testifying to the good news of God’s grace.
25 And now, behold, I know that none of you among whom I have gone about proclaiming the kingdom will see my face again.
25
“Now I know that none of you among whom I have gone about preaching the kingdom will ever see me again.
