18. And when they were come to him, he said unto them, You know, from the first day that I came into Asia, after what manner I have been with you at all times,
19. Serving the Lord with all humility of mind, and with many tears, and temptations, which befell me by the lying in wait of the Jews:
20. And how I kept back nothing that was profitable unto you, but have showed you, and have taught you publicly, and from house to house,
21. Testifying both to the Jews, and also to the Greeks, repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.
22. And now, behold, I go bound in the spirit unto Jerusalem, not knowing the things that shall befall me there:
23. Except that the Holy Spirit witnesses in every city, saying that bonds and afflictions await me.
24. But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so 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.
25. And now, behold, I know that you all, among whom I have gone preaching the kingdom of God, shall see my face no more.
26. Therefore I testify to you this day, that I am pure from the blood of all men.
