Acts 20:22-27

22And now, compelled by the Spirit and obligated by my convictions, I am going to Jerusalem, not knowing what will happen to me there,

23except that the Holy Spirit solemnly [and emphatically] affirms to me in city after city that imprisonment and suffering await me.

24But I do not consider my life as something of value or dear to me, so that I may [with joy] finish my course and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify faithfully of the good news of God’s [precious, undeserved] grace [which makes us free of the guilt of sin and grants us eternal life].

25“And now, listen carefully: I know that none of you, among whom I went about preaching the kingdom, will see me again.

26For that reason I testify to you on this [our parting] day that I am innocent of the blood of all people.

27For I did not shrink from declaring to you the whole purpose and plan of God.
