22AndG2532 nowG3568, beholdG3708, IG1473 goG4198 boundG1210 in the spiritG3588G4151 untoG1519 JerusalemG2419, notG3361 knowingG1492 the thingsG3588 thatG1722 shall befallG4876 meG1473 thereG846: 23SaveG4133 thatG3754 the HolyG40 GhostG3588G4151 witnessethG1263 inG2596 every cityG4172, sayingG3004 thatG3754 bondsG1199 andG2532 afflictionsG2347 abideG3306 meG1473. 24ButG235 noneG3762 of these thingsG3056 move meG4160, neitherG3761 count IG2192 myG1473 lifeG3588G5590 dearG5093 unto myselfG1683, soG5613 that I might finishG5048 myG1473 courseG3588G1408 withG3326 joyG5479, andG2532 the ministryG3588G1248, whichG3739 I have receivedG2983 ofG3844 the LordG3588G2962 JesusG2424, to testifyG1263 the gospelG3588G2098 of the graceG3588G5485 of GodG3588G2316. 25AndG2532 nowG3568, beholdG3708, IG1473 knowG1492 thatG3754 yeG4771 allG3956, amongG1722 whomG3739 I have goneG1330 preachingG2784 the kingdomG3588G932 of GodG3588G2316, shall seeG3708 myG1473 faceG3588G4383 no moreG3765. 26WhereforeG1352 I takeG3143 youG4771 to recordG3143 thisG4594 dayG2250, thatG3754 IG1473 am pureG2513 fromG575 the bloodG3588G129 of allG3956 men. 27ForG1063 I haveG5288 notG3756 shunnedG5288 to declareG312 unto youG4771 allG3956 the counselG3588G1012 of GodG3588G2316. 28

Take heedG4337 thereforeG3767 unto yourselvesG1438, andG2532 to allG3956 the flockG3588G4168, overG1722 the whichG3739 the HolyG40 GhostG3588G4151 hath madeG5087 youG4771 overseersG1985, to feedG4165 the AssemblyG3588G1577 of GodG3588G2316, whichG3739 he hath purchasedG4046 withG1223 his ownG2398 bloodG129. 29ForG1063 IG1473 knowG1492 thisG3778, thatG3754 afterG3326 myG1473 departingG3588G867 shall grievousG926 wolvesG3074 enterG1525 in amongG1519 youG4771, notG3361 sparingG5339 the flockG3588G4168. 30AlsoG2532 ofG1537 yourG4771 own selvesG846 shallG435 menG435 ariseG450, speakingG2980 perverse thingsG1294, to draw awayG645 disciplesG3588G3101 afterG3694 themG846. 31ThereforeG1352 watchG1127, and rememberG3421, thatG3754 by the space of three yearsG5148 I ceasedG3973 notG3756 to warnG3560 everyG1538 oneG1520 nightG3571 andG2532 dayG2250 withG3326 tearsG1144. 32AndG2532 nowG3569, brethrenG80, I commendG3908 youG4771 to GodG3588G2316, andG2532 to the wordG3588G3056 of hisG846 graceG3588G5485, which is ableG3588G1410 to build you upG2026, andG2532 to giveG1325 youG4771 an inheritanceG2817 amongG1722 all themG3956 which are sanctifiedG3588G37. 33I have covetedG1937 no man’sG3762 silverG694, orG2228 goldG5553, orG2228 apparelG2441. 34YeaG1161, yeG1097 yourselvesG846 knowG1097, thatG3754 theseG3778 handsG3588G5495 have ministeredG5256 unto myG1473 necessitiesG3588G5532, andG2532 to themG3588 that wereG1510 withG3326 meG1473. 35I have shewedG5263 youG4771 all thingsG3956, how thatG3754 soG3779 labouringG2872 ye oughtG1163 to supportG482 the weakG770, andG5037 to rememberG3421 the wordsG3588G3056 of the LordG3588G2962 JesusG2424, howG3754 heG846 saidG3004, It isG1510 moreG3123 blessedG3107 to giveG1325 thanG2228 to receiveG2983.

36AndG2532 when he hadG3004 thusG3778 spokenG3004, he kneeled downG3588G1119, and prayedG4336 withG4862 themG846 allG3956. 37AndG1161 theyG2425 allG3956 wept soreG1096G2805, andG2532 fellG1968 onG1909 Paul’sG3588G3972 neckG3588G5137, and kissedG2705 himG846, 38SorrowingG3600 most of allG3122 forG1909 the wordsG3588G3056 whichG3739 he spakeG2046, thatG3754 they shouldG3195 seeG2334 hisG846 faceG3588G4383 no moreG3765. AndG1161 they accompaniedG4311 himG846 untoG1519 the shipG3588G4143.
