And when they had come to him, he said to them, 'You know, from the first day that I came to Asia, how I was with you all the time,
19.
serving the Master with all humility, with many tears and trials which befell me by the plotting of the Yehudim,
20.
as I kept back no matter that was profitable, but proclaimed it to you, and taught you publicly and from house to house,
21.
witnessing to Yehudim, and also to Greeks: repentance toward Elohim and belief in our Master Yahushua Messiah.
22.
'And now see, I go bound in the spirit to Yerushalayim, not knowing what is going to meet me there,
23.
except that the Set-apart Spirit witnesses in every city, saying that chains and pressures await me.
24.
'But I do not count my life of any value to me, so that I might accomplish my mission with joy, and the service which I received from the Master Yahushua, to bear witness to the Good News of the favour of Elohim.
25.
'And now see, I know that you all, among whom I went about proclaiming the reign of Elohim, shall see my face no more.
26.
'Therefore I witness to you this day that I am clear from the blood of all.
27.
'For I kept not back from declaring to you all the counsel of Elohim.
28.
`Therefore take heed to yourselves and to all the flock, among which the Set-apart Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the assembly of Elohim which He has purchased with His own blood.

33.
'I have coveted no one's silver or gold or garments.
34.
'And you yourselves know that these hands supplied my needs, and for those who were with me.
35.
'All this I did show you, by labouring like this, that you ought to help the weak. And remember the words of the Master Yahushua, that He said, 'It is more blessed to give than to receive.''
36.
And having said this, he knelt down and prayed with them all.
37.
