1 And after the uproar ceased, Paul having summoned the disciples and having embraced them, he departed to go into Macedonia.
2 And having passed through those parts, and having exhorted them with many words, he came into Greece.
3 And having spent three months there, and a conspiracy having developed against him by Jews, intending to go up into Syria, a decision developed to return through Macedonia.
4 And there accompanied him as far as Asia, Sopater a Berean, and of the Thessalonians, Aristarchus and Secundus, and Gaius a Derbean, and Timothy, and the Asians, Tychicus and Trophimus.
5 These men, who went ahead, awaited us at Troas.
6 And we sailed away from Philippi after the days of unleavened bread, and came to them at Troas within five days, where we stayed seven days.
7 And upon the first day of the week, the disciples having come together to break bread, Paul discoursed with them, intending to depart on the morrow. And he prolonged his speech until midnight.
8 And there were considerable lights in the upper floor where we were gathered together.
9 And a certain young man named Eutychus sitting in the window, being carried away by deep sleep (Paul discoursing on more), being carried away by sleep, he fell down below from the third floor, and was taken up dead.
10 But Paul having come down, he fell on him, and having embraced him he said, Be not troubled, for his life is in him.
11 And after getting up, and having broken bread and eaten, and having conversed for a considerable time, until dawn, thus he departed.
12 And they brought the boy alive, and were not a little comforted.
13 But we, having gone ahead to the ship, went up to Assos, intending from there to take up Paul, for so it was arranged, he himself intending to go on foot.
14 And when he met with us at Assos, having taken him up, we came to Mitylene.
15 And having sailed from there on the next day, we arrived opposite Chios, and the next day we came near to Samos. And having remained in Trogyllium, on the following day we came to Miletus.
16 For Paul determined to sail past Ephesus, so that he might not happen to lose time in Asia. For he was hastening, if it were possible, for him to become at Jerusalem the day of Pentecost.
17 And from Miletus having sent to Ephesus, he summoned the elders of the congregation.
18 And when they came to him, he said to them, Ye know, from the first day in which I stepped in Asia, how I became with you all the time,
19 serving the Lord with all humility, and many tears and trials that befell me by the conspiracies of the Jews.
20 How I kept back nothing of these things that are beneficial, not to inform you, and to teach you in public, and from house to house,
21 testifying both to Jews and to Greeks repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus.
22 And now behold, I, bound in the spirit, am going to Jerusalem, not knowing the things that will happen to me in it,
23 except that the Holy Spirit testifies from city to city, saying that bonds and afflictions await me.
24 But I make nothing of the matter, nor do I hold my life precious to myself, so as to fully complete my course with joy, and the ministry that I received from the Lord Jesus, to solemnly testify the good-news of the grace of God.
25 And now behold, I have seen that ye will no longer see my face, ye all among whom I passed through preaching the kingdom of God.
26 Therefore I solemnly declare to you this day, that I am clean from the blood of all men.
27 For I did not withdraw from declaring to you the whole plan of God.
28 Take heed therefore to yourselves, and to all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit placed you guardians, to tend the church of the Lord and God, which he purchased by his own blood.
29 For I know this, that after my departure grievous wolves will enter in among you, not sparing the flock.
30 And from you yourselves men will rise up, speaking distorted things, to draw away the disciples after them.
31 Therefore watch ye, remembering that for three years, night and day, I did not cease warning each one with tears.
32 And now brothers, I commit you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build up, and to give you an inheritance among all those who have been sanctified.
33 I coveted no man's silver, or gold, or apparel.
34 Ye yourselves know that these hands served my needs, and to those who were with me.
35 I gave you a glimpse of all things, that so laboring ye ought to aid the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that he himself said, It is more blessed to give than to receive.
36 And having spoken these things, having knelt down, he prayed with them all.
37 And there developed considerable weeping of all. And having fallen on Paul's neck, they kissed him much,
38 sorrowing especially for the word that he had spoken, that they were going to see his face no more. And they accompanied him to the ship.
1 After the rage was ceased Paul called the disciples vnto him and toke his leave of them and departed for to goo into Macedonia.
2 And when he had gone over those parties and geven them large exhortacions he came into Grece
3 and there abode .iii. monethes. And when the Iewes layde wayte for him as he was about to sayle into Syria he purposed to returne thorowe Macedonia.
4 Ther acompanied him into Asia Sopater of Berrea and of Thessalonia Aristarcus and Secundus and Gayus of Derba and Timotheus: and out of Asia Tychicus and Trophimos.
5 These went before and taryed vs at Troas.
6 And we sayled awaye fro Philippos after the ester holydayes and came vnto them to Troas in five dayes where we abode seven dayes.
7 And on the morowe after the saboth daye the disciples came to geder for to breake breed and Paul preached vnto them (redy to departe on the morowe) and cotinued the preachynge vnto mydnyght.
8 And there were many lyghtes in the chamber where thy were gaddered to geder
9 and there sate in a wyndowe a certayne yonge man named Eutichos fallen into a depe slepe. And as Paul declared he was the moare overcome with slepe and fell doune from the thyrde lofte and was taken vp deed.
10 Paul went doune and fell on him and embrased him and sayde: make nothinge ado for his lyfe is in him.
11 When he was come vp agayne he brake breed and tasted and comened a longe whyle even tyll the mornynge and so departed.
12 And they brought the youge man a lyve and were not alytell comforted.
13 And we went a fore to shippe and lowsed vnto Asson there to receave Paul. For so had he apoynted and wolde him selfe goo a fote.
14 When he was come to vs vnto Asson we toke him in and came to Mytelenes.
15 And we sayled thence and came the nexte daye over agaynst Chios. And the nexte daye we aryved at Samos and taryed at Trogilion. The nexte daye we came to Myleton:
16 for Paul had determined to leave Ephesus as they sayled because he wolde not spende ye tyme in Asia. For he hasted to be (yf he coulde possible) at Ierusalem at the daye of pentecoste.
17 Wherfore from Myleton he sent to Ephesus and called the elders of the cogregacion.
18 And when they were come to him he sayde vnto the: Ye knowe fro the fyrst daye yt I came vnto Asia after what maner I have bene wt you at all ceasons
19 servynge the lorde with all humblenes of mynde and with many teares and temptacions which happened vnto me by the layinges awayte of the Ieues
20 and how I kept backe no thinge that was profitable: but that I have shewed you and taught you openly and at home in youre houses
21 witnessinge bothe to the Iewes and also to the Grekes the repentaunce toward God and faith towarde oure Lorde Iesu.
22 And now beholde I goo bounde in the sprete vnto Ierusalem and knowe not what shall come on me there
23 but that the holy goost witnesseth in every cite sayinge: yt bondes and trouble abyde me.
24 But none of tho thinges move me: nether is my lyfe dere vnto my selfe that I myght fulfill my course wt ioye and the ministracio which I have receaved of ye Lorde Iesu to testify the gospell of ye grace of god.
25 And now beholde I am sure yt hence forth ye all (thorow who I have gone preachinge ye kyngdome of God) shall se my face no moore.
26 Wherfore I take you to recorde this same daye that I am pure fro the bloude of all me.
27 For I have kepte nothinge backe: but have shewed you all the counsell of God.
28 Take hede therfore vnto youre selves and to all the flocke wherof the holy goost hath made you oversears to rule the congregacion of God which he hath purchased with his bloud.
29 For I am sure of this that after my departynge shall greveous wolves entre in amonge you which will not spare the flocke.
30 Moreover of youre awne selves shall men aryse speakinge perverse thinges to drawe disciples after the.
31 Therfore awake and remember that by the space of .iii. yeares I ceased not to warne every one of you both nyght and daye with teares.
32 And now brethren I comende you to God and to the worde of his grace which is able to bylde further and to geve you an inheritaunce amoge all them which are sanctified.
33 I have desyred no mas silver golde or vesture.
34 Ye knowe well yt these hondes have ministred vnto my necessities and to them that were wt me.
35 I have shewed you all thinges how that so laborynge ye ought to receave the weake and to remember the wordes of the Lorde Iesu howe that he sayde: It is more blessed to geve then to receave.
36 When he had thus spoken he kneled doune and prayed with them all.
37 And they wept all aboundantly and fell on Pauls necke and kissed him
38 sorowinge most of all for the wordes which he spake that they shuld se his face no moore. And they acompanyed him vnto the shyppe.
