But from Miletus having sent to Ephesus, he called over the elders of the assembly.

18 A nd when they were come to him, he said unto them, Ye know, from the first day that I came into Asia, after what manner I have been with you at all seasons,

And when they were come to him, he said to them, Ye know how I was with you all the time from the first day that I arrived in Asia,

19 s erving the Lord with all humility and with many tears and temptations, which have befallen me by the ambushes of the Jews,

serving the Lord with all lowliness, and tears, and temptations, which happened to me through the plots of the Jews;

20 a nd how I kept back nothing that was profitable unto you, but have showed you and have taught you publicly and from house to house,

how I held back nothing of what is profitable, so as not to announce to you, and to teach you publicly and in every house,

21 t estifying both to the Jews and also to the Gentiles, repentance toward God and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.

testifying to both Jews and Greeks repentance towards God, and faith towards our Lord Jesus Christ.

24 B ut none of these things move me, neither do I count my life dear unto myself, only that I might finish my course with joy and the ministry, which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God.

But I make no account of life dear to myself, so that I finish my course, and the ministry which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the glad tidings of the grace of God.

31 T herefore watch and remember that by the space of three years I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears.

Wherefore watch, remembering that for three years, night and day, I ceased not admonishing each one with tears.

And now I commit you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build up and give an inheritance among all the sanctified.

I have shewed you all things, that thus labouring ought to come in aid of the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that he himself said, It is more blessed to give than to receive.
