And now behold, I go bound in the spirit to Jerusalem, not knowing the things that shall befall me there:
23
Save that the Holy Spirit testifieth in every city, saying, that bonds and afflictions abide me.
24
But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear to myself, so that I may finish my course with joy, and the ministry which I have received from the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God.
25
And now behold, I know that ye all, among whom I have gone preaching the kingdom of God, will see my face no more.
26
Wherefore I call you to witness this day, that I [am] pure from the blood of all [men].
27
For I have not shunned to declare to you all the counsel of God.
28
Take heed therefore to yourselves, and to all the flock over which the Holy Spirit hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.
29
For I know this, that after my departure grievous wolves will enter in among you, not sparing the flock.
30
Also from your own selves will men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them.
31
Therefore watch, and remember, that by the space of three years I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears.
32
And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them who are sanctified.
