Acts 20:28-35

28Therefore 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.

29For I know this, that after my departure savage wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock.

30Also from among yourselves men will rise up, speaking perverse things, to draw away the disciples after themselves.

31Therefore watch, and remember that for three years I did not cease to warn everyone night and day with tears.

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.

33I have coveted no one’s silver or gold or apparel.

34Yes, you yourselves know that these hands have provided for my necessities, and for those who were with me.

35I 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.’ ”
