Acts 20

25 Ref Now, behold, I know that you all, among whom I went about preaching the Kingdom of God, will see my face no more.

26 Ref Therefore I testify to you this day that I am clean from the blood of all men,

27 Ref for I didn't shrink from declaring to you the whole counsel of God.

28 Ref Take heed, therefore, to yourselves, and to all the flock, in which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the assembly of the Lord and{TR, NU omit "the Lord and"} God which he purchased with his own blood.

29 Ref For I know that after my departure, vicious wolves will enter in among you, not sparing the flock.

30 Ref Men will arise from among your own selves, speaking perverse things, to draw away the disciples after them.

31 Ref Therefore watch, remembering that for a period of three years I didn't cease to admonish everyone night and day with tears.

32 Ref Now, brothers,{The word for "brothers" here and where the context allows may also be correctly translated "brothers and sisters" or "siblings."} I entrust you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build up, and to give you the inheritance among all those who are sanctified.

33 Ref I coveted no one's silver, or gold, or clothing.

34 Ref You yourselves know that these hands ministered to my necessities, and to those who were with me.

35 Ref In all things I gave you an example, that so laboring you ought to help 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 Ref When he had spoken these things, he knelt down and prayed with them all.
