Acts 20:17-21

17From Miletus he sent to 1Ephesus and called to him 2the elders of the church. 18And when they had come to him, he said to them,

“You yourselves know, 3from the first day that I set foot in 4Asia, how I was with you the whole time, 19serving the Lord with all humility and with tears and with trials which came upon me 5through 6the plots of the Jews; 20how I 7did not shrink from declaring to you anything that was profitable, and teaching you publicly and 8from house to house, 21solemnly 9testifying to both Jews and Greeks of 10repentance toward God and 11faith in our Lord Jesus Christ.
