Now when he had gone over that region and encouraged them with many words, he came to Greece
3 ubi cum fecisset menses tres factae sunt illi insidiae a Iudaeis navigaturo in Syriam habuitque consilium ut reverteretur per Macedoniam
3
and stayed three months. And when the Jews plotted against him as he was about to sail to Syria, he decided to return through Macedonia.
4 comitatus est autem eum Sopater Pyrri Beroensis Thessalonicensium vero Aristarchus et Secundus et Gaius Derbeus et Timotheus Asiani vero Tychicus et Trophimus

And in a window sat a certain young man named Eutychus, who was sinking into a deep sleep. He was overcome by sleep; and as Paul continued speaking, he fell down from the third story and was taken up dead.
10 ad quem cum descendisset Paulus incubuit super eum et conplexus dixit nolite turbari anima enim ipsius in eo est

But Paul went down, fell on him, and embracing him said, "Do not trouble yourselves, for his life is in him."
11 ascendens autem frangensque panem et gustans satisque adlocutus usque in lucem sic profectus est

We sailed from there, and the next day came opposite Chios. The following day we arrived at Samos and stayed at Trogyllium. The next day we came to Miletus.
16 proposuerat enim Paulus transnavigare Ephesum ne qua mora illi fieret in Asia festinabat enim si possibile sibi esset ut diem pentecosten faceret Hierosolymis
16
For Paul had decided to sail past Ephesus, so that he would not have to spend time in Asia; for he was hurrying to be at Jerusalem, if possible, on the Day of Pentecost.

From Miletus he sent to Ephesus and called for the elders of the church.

18
And when they had come to him, he said to them: "You know, from the first day that I came to Asia, in what manner I always lived among you,
19 serviens Domino cum omni humilitate et lacrimis et temptationibus quae mihi acciderunt ex insidiis Iudaeorum
19
serving the Lord with all humility, with many tears and trials which happened to me by the plotting of the Jews;
20 quomodo nihil subtraxerim utilium quo minus adnuntiarem vobis et docerem vos publice et per domos
20
how I kept back nothing that was helpful, but proclaimed it to you, and taught you publicly and from house to house,
21 testificans Iudaeis atque gentilibus in Deum paenitentiam et fidem in Dominum nostrum Iesum Christum
21
testifying to Jews, and also to Greeks, repentance toward God and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.
22 et nunc ecce alligatus ego Spiritu vado in Hierusalem quae in ea eventura sint mihi ignorans
22
And see, now I go bound in the spirit to Jerusalem, not knowing the things that will happen to me there,
23 nisi quod Spiritus Sanctus per omnes civitates protestatur mihi dicens quoniam vincula et tribulationes me manent
23
except that the Holy Spirit testifies in every city, saying that chains and tribulations await me.
24 sed nihil horum vereor nec facio animam pretiosiorem quam me dummodo consummem cursum meum et ministerium quod accepi a Domino Iesu testificari evangelium gratiae Dei
24
But none of these things move me; nor do I count my life dear to myself, so that I may finish my race with joy, and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God.
25 et nunc ecce ego scio quia amplius non videbitis faciem meam vos omnes per quos transivi praedicans regnum Dei
25
And indeed, now I know that you all, among whom I have gone preaching the kingdom of God, will see my face no more.
26 quapropter contestor vos hodierna die quia mundus sum a sanguine omnium
26
Therefore I testify to you this day that I am innocent of the blood of all men.
27 non enim subterfugi quo minus adnuntiarem omne consilium Dei vobis
27
For I have not shunned to declare to you the whole counsel of God.
28 adtendite vobis et universo gregi in quo vos Spiritus Sanctus posuit episcopos regere ecclesiam Dei quam adquisivit sanguine suo
28
Therefore take heed to yourselves and to all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the church of God which He purchased with His own blood.
29 ego scio quoniam intrabunt post discessionem meam lupi graves in vos non parcentes gregi
29
For I know this, that after my departure savage wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock.
30 et ex vobis ipsis exsurgent viri loquentes perversa ut abducant discipulos post se
30
Also from among yourselves men will rise up, speaking perverse things, to draw away the disciples after themselves.
31 propter quod vigilate memoria retinentes quoniam per triennium nocte et die non cessavi cum lacrimis monens unumquemque vestrum
31
Therefore watch, and remember that for three years I did not cease to warn everyone night and day with tears.
32 et nunc commendo vos Deo et verbo gratiae ipsius qui potens est aedificare et dare hereditatem in sanctificatis omnibus
32
So now, brethren, I commend you to God and to the word of His grace, which is able to build you up and give you an inheritance among all those who are sanctified.
33 argentum aut aurum aut vestem nullius concupivi
33
I have coveted no one's silver or gold or apparel.
34 ipsi scitis quoniam ad ea quae mihi opus erant et his qui mecum sunt ministraverunt manus istae
34
Yes, you yourselves know that these hands have provided for my necessities, and for those who were with me.
35 omnia ostendi vobis quoniam sic laborantes oportet suscipere infirmos ac meminisse verbi Domini Iesu quoniam ipse dixit beatius est magis dare quam accipere
35
I have shown you in every way, by laboring like this, that you must support the weak. And remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that He said, 'It is more blessed to give than to receive.' "
36 et cum haec dixisset positis genibus suis cum omnibus illis oravit
36
And when he had said these things, he knelt down and prayed with them all.
37 magnus autem fletus factus est omnium et procumbentes super collum Pauli osculabantur eum
37
Then they all wept freely, and fell on Paul's neck and kissed him,
38 dolentes maxime in verbo quo dixerat quoniam amplius faciem eius non essent visuri et deducebant eum ad navem
38
sorrowing most of all for the words which he spoke, that they would see his face no more. And they accompanied him to the ship.
