25. “Now I know that none of you whom I told about the kingdom ⌊of God⌋ will see me again.
26. Therefore, I declare to you today that I am not responsible for the ⌊spiritual⌋ death of any of you.
27. I didn’t avoid telling you the whole plan of God.
28. Pay attention to yourselves and to the entire flock in which the Holy Spirit has placed you as bishops to be shepherds for God’s church which he acquired with his own blood.
29. I know that fierce wolves will come to you after I leave, and they won’t spare the flock.
30. Some of your own men will come forward and say things that distort the truth. They will do this to lure disciples into following them.
