44:020:025 And now, behold, I know that ye all, among
whom I have gone
preaching
the kingdom of God, shall see my face no more.
44:020:026 Wherefore I take you to record this day,
that I am pure from
the
blood of all men.
44:020:027 For I have not shunned to declare unto
you all the counsel of
God.
44:020:028 Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and
to all the flock,
over
the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to
feed
the
church of God, which he hath purchased with his own
blood.
44:020:029 For I know this, that after my departing
shall grievous wolves
enter
in among you, not sparing the flock.
44:020:030 Also of your own selves shall men arise,
speaking perverse
things,
to draw away disciples after them.
44:020:031 Therefore watch, and remember, that by
the space of three
years
I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears.
44:020:032 And now, brethren, I commend you to God,
and to the word of
his
grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you
an
inheritance
among all them which are sanctified.
44:020:033 I have coveted no man’s silver, or gold, or apparel.
44:020:034 Yea, ye yourselves know, that these hands
have ministered unto
my
necessities, and to them that were with me.
44:020:035 I have shewed you all things, how that
so labouring ye ought
to
support the weak, and to remember the words of the
Lord
Jesus,
how he said, It is more blessed to give than to
receive.
44:020:036 And when he had thus spoken, he kneeled
down, and prayed with
them
all.
44:020:037 And they all wept sore, and fell on Paul’s
neck, and kissed
him,
44:020:038 Sorrowing most of all for the words which
he spake, that they
should
see his face no more. And they accompanied him
unto the
ship.
44:021:001 And it came to pass, that after we were
gotten from them, and
had
launched, we came with a straight course unto Coos,
and
the
day following unto Rhodes, and from thence unto Patara:
44:021:002 And finding a ship sailing over unto Phenicia,
we went aboard,
and
set forth.
44:021:003 Now when we had discovered Cyprus, we left
it on the left
hand,
and sailed into Syria, and landed at Tyre: for
there the
ship
was to unlade her burden.
44:021:004 And finding disciples, we tarried there
seven days: who said
to
Paul through the Spirit, that he should not go up to
Jerusalem.
44:021:005 And when we had accomplished those days,
we departed and went
our
way; and they all brought us on our way, with wives
and
children,
till we were out of the city: and we kneeled down
on
the
shore, and prayed.
