20 After the uproar had ceased, Paul, having sent for the disciples and [encouraged them],[fn] greeted them[fn] and departed to go to Macedonia.
2 Passing through those regions and offering much encouragement to them, he came to Greece 3 and spent three months there.
When a plot was made against him by the Jews as he was about to set sail for Syria, he decided to return through Macedonia. 4 He was accompanied [[as far ads Asia]][fn] by Sopater of Berea, the son [of Pyrrhus];[fn] Aristarchus and Secundus from Thessalonica; Gaius of Derbe; Timothy; and the Asians Tychicus and Trophimus. 5 These men went on [ahead][fn] and were waiting for us in Troas. 6 We sailed away from Philippi after the days of Unleavened Bread, and in five days we joined them in Troas, where we stayed for seven days.
7 On the first day of the week, when {we}[fn] were gathered together to break bread, Paul talked with them, intending to depart on the next day, and he prolonged his speech until midnight. 8 There were many lamps in the upper room where we were gathered.
9 Now a certain young man named Eutychus, sitting at the window, was overcome by a deep sleep as Paul spoke at length; falling down from the third story, he was picked up dead. 10 But Paul went down, fell on him, and embracing him said, “Do not be alarmed, for his life is in him.” 11 Then going up and breaking the bread and tasting it, he conversed for a considerable time until dawn; so he departed. 12 And they brought the boy alive and were greatly comforted.
13 We went ahead to the ship and set sail for Assos, intending to take Paul aboard there, for so he had arranged, intending himself to go by land. 14 And when he met us at Assos, we took him on board and went to Mitylene. 15 And sailing from there, we came the following day opposite Chios; the next day we touched at Samos [[after remaining at Trogylium]];[fn] and the day after that we went to Miletus. 16 For Paul had decided to sail past Ephesus, so that he might not have to spend time in Asia, for he was hastening to be at Jerusalem, if possible, on the day of Pentecost.
17 From Miletus he sent to Ephesus and called the elders of the church to come to him. 18 And when they came to him, he said to them, “You yourselves know how I lived among you the whole time from the first day that I set foot in Asia, 19 serving the Lord with all humility and with [[many]][fn] tears and with trials that happened to me through the plots of the Jews; 20 how I did not shrink from declaring to you anything that was profitable, and teaching you in public and from house to house, 21 testifying both to Jews and to Greeks of repentance toward God and of faith in our Lord Jesus [[Christ]].[fn]
22 “And now, behold, I am bound by the Spirit to go to Jerusalem, not knowing what will happen to me there, 23 except that the Holy Spirit testifies [to me][fn] in every city that imprisonment and afflictions await me.
24 “{But I do not account my life of any value nor as precious to myself},[fn] if only I may finish my course [[with joy]][fn] and the ministry that I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God.
25 “And now, behold, I know that you all, among whom I went about preaching the kingdom [[of God]],[fn] will no longer see my face. 26 Therefore, I testify to you this day that I am innocent of the blood of all men; 27 for I did not shrink back from declaring to you the whole counsel of God.
28 “Take heed to yourselves and to all the flock, in which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the church of {the Lord},[fn] which he obtained with {the blood of his own}.[fn]
29 “{I know}[fn] that after my departure, savage wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock; 30 and from among your own selves men will arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away the disciples after them.
31 “Therefore, be on the alert, remembering that for three years, night and day, I did not cease to admonish each one with tears. 32 And now I commend you [[brothers]][fn] to God and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up and to give you the inheritance among all those who are sanctified.
33 “I have coveted no one's silver or gold or clothing. 34 You yourselves know that these hands ministered to my own needs and to those who were with me.
35 “In everything I showed you that by working hard in this manner you must help the weak and remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that he himself said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’”
36 And when he had said these things, he knelt down with them all and prayed.
37 And there was much weeping by everyone, and they embraced Paul and kissed him, 38 being especially grieved by the word which he had spoken, that they would not see his face again.
And they accompanied him to the ship.
