1. After the disturbance had ended, Paul sent for the disciples, and after encouraging them and saying farewell, he left to go to Macedonia.
|
1. And G1161 after the G3588 uproar G2351 was ceased G3973 , Paul G3972 called unto G4341 him the G3588 disciples G3101 , and G2532 embraced G782 them, and departed G1831 for to go G4198 into G1519 Macedonia G3109 .
|
|
2. After he had gone through those regions and spoken many words of encouragement to the believers there, he came to Greece,
|
2. And G1161 when he had gone over G1330 those G1565 parts G3313 , and G2532 had given G3870 them G846 much G4183 exhortation G3056 , he came G2064 into G1519 Greece G1671 ,
|
|
3. where he stayed for three months. Because the Jews had made a plot against him as he was intending to sail for Syria, he decided to return through Macedonia.
|
3. And G5037 there abode G4160 three G5140 months G3376 . And when G5259 the G3588 Jews G2453 laid wait for G1917 G1096 him G846 , as he was about G3195 to sail G321 into G1519 Syria G4947 , he purposed G1096 G1106 to return G5290 through G1223 Macedonia G3109 .
|
|
4. Paul was accompanied by Sopater son of Pyrrhus from Berea, Aristarchus and Secundus from Thessalonica, Gaius from Derbe, and Timothy, as well as Tychicus and Trophimus from the province of Asia.
|
4. And G1161 there accompanied G4902 him G846 into G891 Asia G773 Sopater G4986 of Berea G961 ; and G1161 of the Thessalonians G2331 , Aristarchus G708 and G2532 Secundus G4580 ; and G2532 Gaius G1050 of Derbe G1190 , and G2532 Timothy G5095 ; and G1161 of Asia G774 , Tychicus G5190 and G2532 Trophimus G5161 .
|
|
5. These had gone on ahead and were waiting for us in Troas.
|
5. These G3778 going before G4281 tarried G3306 for us G2248 at G1722 Troas G5174 .
|
|
6. We sailed away from Philippi after the days of Unleavened Bread, and within five days we came to the others in Troas, where we stayed for seven days.
|
6. And G1161 we G2249 sailed away G1602 from G575 Philippi G5375 after G3326 the G3588 days G2250 of unleavened bread G106 , and G2532 came G2064 unto G4314 them G846 to G1519 Troas G5174 in G891 five G4002 days G2250 ; where G3757 we abode G1304 seven G2033 days G2250 .
|
|
7. On the first day of the week, when we met to break bread, Paul began to speak to the people, and because he intended to leave the next day, he extended his message until midnight.
|
7. And G1161 upon G1722 the G3588 first G3391 day of the G3588 week G4521 , when the G3588 disciples G3101 came together G4863 to break G2806 bread G740 , Paul G3972 preached G1256 unto them G846 , ready G3195 to depart G1826 on the G3588 morrow G1887 ; and G5037 continued G3905 his speech G3056 until G3360 midnight G3317 .
|
|
8. (Now there were many lamps in the upstairs room where we were meeting.)
|
8. And G1161 there were G2258 many G2425 lights G2985 in G1722 the G3588 upper chamber G5253 , where G3757 they were G2258 gathered together G4863 .
|
|
9. A young man named Eutychus, who was sitting in the window, was sinking into a deep sleep while Paul continued to speak for a long time. Fast asleep, he fell down from the third story and was picked up dead.
|
9. And G1161 there sat G2521 in G1909 a window G2376 a certain G5100 young man G3494 named G3686 Eutychus G2161 , being fallen into G2702 a deep G901 sleep G5258 : and as Paul G3972 was G1909 long G4119 preaching G1256 , he sunk down G2702 with G575 sleep G5258 , and fell G4098 down G2736 from G575 the G3588 third loft G5152 , and G2532 was taken up G142 dead G3498 .
|
|
10. But Paul went down, threw himself on the young man, put his arms around him, and said, "Do not be distressed, for he is still alive!"
|
10. And G1161 Paul G3972 went down G2597 , and fell on G1968 him G846 , and G2532 embracing G4843 him said G2036 , Trouble not yourselves G2350 G3361 ; for G1063 his G846 life G5590 is G2076 in G1722 him G846 .
|
|
11. Then Paul went back upstairs, and after he had broken bread and eaten, he talked with them a long time, until dawn. Then he left.
|
11. When G1161 he therefore was come up again G305 , and G2532 had broken G2806 bread G740 , and G2532 eaten G1089 , and G5037 talked G3656 a long while G1909 G2425 , even till G891 break of day G827 , so G3779 he departed G1831 .
|
|
12. They took the boy home alive and were greatly comforted.
|
12. And G1161 they brought G71 the G3588 young man G3816 alive G2198 , and G2532 were not G3756 a little G3357 comforted G3870 .
|
|
13. We went on ahead to the ship and put out to sea for Assos, intending to take Paul aboard there, for he had arranged it this way. He himself was intending to go there by land.
|
13. And G1161 we G2249 went before G4281 to G1909 ship G4143 , and sailed G321 unto G1519 Assos G789 , there G1564 intending G3195 to take in G353 Paul G3972 : for G1063 so G3779 had G2258 he appointed G1299 , minding G3195 himself G846 to go afoot G3978 .
|
|
14. When he met us in Assos, we took him aboard and went to Mitylene.
|
14. And G1161 when G5613 he met G4820 with us G2254 at G1519 Assos G789 , we took him in G353 G846 , and came G2064 to G1519 Mitylene G3412 .
|
|
15. We set sail from there, and on the following day we arrived off Chios. The next day we approached Samos, and the day after that we arrived at Miletus.
|
15. And we sailed thence G2547 G636 , and came G2658 the G3588 next G1966 day over against G481 Chios G5508 ; and G1161 the G3588 next G2087 day we arrived G3846 at G1519 Samos G4544 , and G2532 tarried G3306 at G1722 Trogyllium G5175 ; and the G3588 next G2192 day we came G2064 to G1519 Miletus G3399 .
|
|
16. For Paul had decided to sail past Ephesus so as not to spend time in the province of Asia, for he was hurrying to arrive in Jerusalem, if possible, by the day of Pentecost.
|
16. For G1063 Paul G3972 had determined G2919 to sail by G3896 Ephesus G2181 , because G3704 he G846 would G1096 not G3361 spend the time G5551 in G1722 Asia G773 : for G1063 he hasted G4692 , if G1487 it were G2258 possible G1415 for him G846 , to be G1096 at G1519 Jerusalem G2414 the G3588 day G2250 of Pentecost G4005 .
|
|
17. From Miletus he sent a message to Ephesus, telling the elders of the church to come to him.
|
17. And G1161 from G575 Miletus G3399 he sent G3992 to G1519 Ephesus G2181 , and called G3333 the G3588 elders G4245 of the G3588 church G1577 .
|
|
18. When they arrived, he said to them, "You yourselves know how I lived the whole time I was with you, from the first day I set foot in the province of Asia,
|
18. And G1161 when G5613 they were come G3854 to G4314 him G846 , he said G2036 unto them G846 , Ye G5210 know G1987 , from G575 the first G4413 day G2250 that G575 G3739 I came G1910 into G1519 Asia G773 , after what manner G4459 I have been G1096 with G3326 you G5216 at all G3956 seasons G5550 ,
|
|
19. serving the Lord with all humility and with tears, and with the trials that happened to me because of the plots of the Jews.
|
19. Serving G1398 the G3588 Lord G2962 with G3326 all G3956 humility of mind G5012 , and G2532 with many G4183 tears G1144 , and G2532 temptations G3986 , which befell G4819 me G3427 by G1722 the G3588 lying in wait G1917 of the G3588 Jews G2453 :
|
|
20. You know that I did not hold back from proclaiming to you anything that would be helpful, and from teaching you publicly and from house to house,
|
20. And how G5613 I kept back G5288 nothing G3762 that was profitable G4851 unto you G3361 , but have showed G312 you G5213 , and G2532 have taught G1321 you G5209 publicly G1219 , and G2532 from house to house G2596 G3624 ,
|
|
21. testifying to both Jews and Greeks about repentance toward God and faith in our Lord Jesus.
|
21. Testifying G1263 both G5037 to the Jews G2453 , and G2532 also to the Greeks G1672 , repentance G3341 toward G1519 God G2316 , and G2532 faith G4102 toward G1519 our G2257 Lord G2962 Jesus G2424 Christ G5547 .
|
|
22. And now, compelled by the Spirit, I am going to Jerusalem without knowing what will happen to me there,
|
22. And G2532 now G3568 , behold G2400 , I G1473 go G4198 bound G1210 in the G3588 spirit G4151 unto G1519 Jerusalem G2419 , not G3361 knowing G1492 the things that shall befall G4876 me G3427 there G1722 G846 :
|
|
23. except that the Holy Spirit warns me in town after town that imprisonment and persecutions are waiting for me.
|
23. Save G4133 that G3754 the G3588 Holy G40 Ghost G4151 witnesseth G1263 in every city G2596 G4172 , saying G3004 that G3754 bonds G1199 and G2532 afflictions G2347 abide G3306 me G3165 .
|
|
24. But I do not consider my life worth anything to myself, so that I may finish my task and the ministry that I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the good news of God's grace.
|
24. But G235 none of these things move me G4160 G3056 G3762 , neither G3761 count G2192 I my G3450 life G5590 dear G5093 unto myself G1683 , so that G5613 I might finish G5048 my G3450 course G1408 with G3326 joy G5479 , and G2532 the G3588 ministry G1248 , which G3739 I have received G2983 of G3844 the G3588 Lord G2962 Jesus G2424 , to testify G1263 the G3588 gospel G2098 of the G3588 grace G5485 of God G2316 .
|
|
25. "And now I know that none of you among whom I went around proclaiming the kingdom will see me again.
|
25. And G2532 now G3568 , behold G2400 , I G1473 know G1492 that G3754 ye G5210 all G3956 , among G1722 whom G3739 I have gone G1330 preaching G2784 the G3588 kingdom G932 of God G2316 , shall see G3700 my G3450 face G4383 no more G3765 .
|
|
26. Therefore I declare to you today that I am innocent of the blood of you all.
|
26. Wherefore G1352 I take you to record G3143 G5213 this G4594 day G2250 , that G3754 I G1473 am pure G2513 from G575 the G3588 blood G129 of all G3956 men.
|
|
27. For I did not hold back from announcing to you the whole purpose of God.
|
27. For G1063 I have not G3756 shunned G5288 to G3361 declare G312 unto you G5213 all G3956 the G3588 counsel G1012 of God G2316 .
|
|
28. Watch out for yourselves and for all the flock of which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the church of God that he obtained with the blood of his own Son.
|
28. Take heed G4337 therefore G3767 unto yourselves G1438 , and G2532 to all G3956 the G3588 flock G4168 , over G1722 the which G3739 the G3588 Holy G40 Ghost G4151 hath made G5087 you G5209 overseers G1985 , to feed G4165 the G3588 church G1577 of God G2316 , which G3739 he hath purchased G4046 with G1223 his own G2398 blood G129 .
|
|
29. I know that after I am gone fierce wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock.
|
29. For G1063 I G1473 know G1492 this G5124 , that G3754 after G3326 my G3450 departing G867 shall grievous G926 wolves G3074 enter in G1525 among G1519 you G5209 , not G3361 sparing G5339 the G3588 flock G4168 .
|
|
30. Even from among your own group men will arise, teaching perversions of the truth to draw the disciples away after them.
|
30. Also G2532 of G1537 your own selves G5216 G846 shall men G435 arise G450 , speaking G2980 perverse things G1294 , to draw away G645 disciples G3101 after G3694 them G846 .
|
|
31. Therefore be alert, remembering that night and day for three years I did not stop warning each one of you with tears.
|
31. Therefore G1352 watch G1127 , and remember G3421 , that G3754 by the space of three years G5148 I ceased G3973 not G3756 to warn G3560 every G1538 one G1520 night G3571 and G2532 day G2250 with G3326 tears G1144 .
|
|
32. And now I entrust you to God and to the message of his grace. This message is able to build you up and give you an inheritance among all those who are sanctified.
|
32. And G2532 now G3569 , brethren G80 , I commend G3908 you G5209 to God G2316 , and G2532 to the G3588 word G3056 of his G846 grace G5485 , which is able G1410 to build you up G2026 , and G2532 to give G1325 you G5213 an inheritance G2817 among G1722 all G3956 them which are sanctified G37 .
|
|
33. I have desired no one's silver or gold or clothing.
|
33. I have coveted G1937 no man G3762 's silver G694 , or G2228 gold G5553 , or G2228 apparel G2441 .
|
|
34. You yourselves know that these hands of mine provided for my needs and the needs of those who were with me.
|
34. Yea G1161 , ye G846 yourselves know G1097 , that G3754 these G3778 hands G5495 have ministered G5256 unto my G3450 necessities G5532 , and G2532 to them that were G5607 with G3326 me G1700 .
|
|
35. By all these things, I have shown you that by working in this way we must help the weak, and remember the words of the Lord Jesus that he himself said, 'It is more blessed to give than to receive.'"
|
35. I have showed G5263 you G5213 all things G3956 , how that G3754 so G3779 laboring G2872 ye ought G1163 to support G482 the G3588 weak G770 , and G5037 to remember G3421 the G3588 words G3056 of the G3588 Lord G2962 Jesus G2424 , how G3754 he G848 said G2036 , It is G2076 more G3123 blessed G3107 to give G1325 than G2228 to receive G2983 .
|
|
36. When he had said these things, he knelt down with them all and prayed.
|
36. And G2532 when he had thus G5023 spoken G2036 , he kneeled down G5087 G846 G1119 , and prayed G4336 with G4862 them G846 all G3956 .
|
|
37. They all began to weep loudly, and hugged Paul and kissed him,
|
37. And G1161 they all wept sore G1096 G2425 G2805 G3956 , and G2532 fell G1968 on G1909 Paul G3972 's neck G5137 , and kissed G2705 him G846 ,
|
|
38. especially saddened by what he had said, that they were not going to see him again. Then they accompanied him to the ship.
|
38. Sorrowing G3600 most of all G3122 for G1909 the G3588 words G3056 which G3739 he spake G2046 , that G3754 they should G3195 see G2334 his G848 face G4383 no more G3765 . And G1161 they accompanied G4311 him G846 unto G1519 the G3588 ship G4143 .
