Acts 20:23-33
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 20
23
except that the Holy Spirit solemnly testifies to me in every city, saying that chains and afflictions await me.
24
But I do not consider my life of any account as dear to myself, so that I may finish my course and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify solemnly of the gospel of God’s grace.
25
And now behold, I know that all of you, among whom I went about preaching the kingdom, will no longer see my face.
26
Therefore, I testify to you this day that I am innocent of the blood of all people.
27
For I did not shrink from declaring to you the whole purpose of God.
28
Be on guard for yourselves and for all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the church of God which He purchased with His own blood.
29
I know that after my departure savage wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock;
30
and from among your own selves men will arise, speaking perverse things to draw away the disciples after them.
31
Therefore, be on the alert, remembering that night and day for a period of three years I did not cease to admonish each one with tears.
32
And now I entrust you to God and to the word of His grace, which is able to build
you
up and to give
you
the inheritance among all those who are sanctified.
33
I have coveted no one’s silver or gold or clothes.
King James Version
Chapter 20
23
Save that the Holy Ghost witnesseth in every city, saying that bonds and afflictions abide 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 ye all, among whom I have gone preaching the kingdom of God, shall see my face no more.
26
Wherefore I take you to record this day, that I am pure from the blood of all men.
27
For I have not shunned to declare unto you all the counsel of God.
28
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.
29
For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock.
30
Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them.
31
Therefore watch, and remember, that by the space of three years I ceased not to warn every one night and day with tears.
32
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.
33
I have coveted no man's silver, or gold, or apparel.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 20
23
except that in every town the Holy Spirit warns me that chains and afflictions are waiting for me.
24
But I consider my life of no value to myself; my purpose is to finish my course and the ministry I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of God’s grace.
25
"And now I know that none of you, among whom I went about preaching the kingdom, will ever see me again.
26
Therefore I declare to you this day that I am innocent of the blood of all of you,
27
because I did not avoid declaring to you the whole plan of God.
28
Be on guard for yourselves and for all the flock of which the Holy Spirit has appointed you as overseers, to shepherd the church of God, which he purchased with his own blood.
29
I know that after my departure savage wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock.
30
Men will rise up even from your own number and distort the truth to lure the disciples into following them.
31
Therefore be on the alert, remembering that night and day for three years I never stopped warning each one of you with tears.
32
"And now I commit 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 who are sanctified.
33
I have not coveted anyone’s silver or gold or clothing.
New Living Translation
Chapter 20
23
except that the Holy Spirit tells me in city after city that jail and suffering lie ahead.
24
But my life is worth nothing to me unless I use it for finishing the work assigned me by the Lord Jesus — the work of telling others the Good News about the wonderful grace of God.
25
And now I know that none of you to whom I have preached the Kingdom will ever see me again.
26
I declare today that I have been faithful. If anyone suffers eternal death, it’s not my fault,
27
for I didn’t shrink from declaring all that God wants you to know.
28
So guard yourselves and God’s people. Feed and shepherd God’s flock — his church, purchased with his own blood — over which the Holy Spirit has appointed you as leaders.
29
I know that false teachers, like vicious wolves, will come in among you after I leave, not sparing the flock.
30
Even some men from your own group will rise up and distort the truth in order to draw a following.
31
Watch out! Remember the three years I was with you — my constant watch and care over you night and day, and my many tears for you.
32
And now I entrust you to God and the message of his grace that is able to build you up and give you an inheritance with all those he has set apart for himself.
33
I have never coveted anyone’s silver or gold or fine clothes.
English Standard Version
Chapter 20
23
except that the Holy Spirit testifies to me in every city that imprisonment and afflictions await me.
24
But I do not account my life of any value nor as precious to myself, if only I may finish my course and the ministry that I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God.
25
And now, behold, I know that none of you among whom I have gone about proclaiming the kingdom will see my face again.
26
Therefore I testify to you this day that I am innocent of the blood of all,
27
for I did not shrink from declaring to you the whole counsel of God.
28
Pay careful attention to yourselves and to all the flock, in which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to care for the church of God, which he obtained with his own blood.
29
I know that after my departure fierce wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock;
30
and from among your own selves will arise men speaking twisted things, to draw away the disciples after them.
31
Therefore be alert, remembering that for three years I did not cease night or day to admonish every one with tears.
32
And now I commend you to God and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up and to give you the inheritance among all those who are sanctified.
33
I coveted no one 's silver or gold or apparel.
New International Version
Chapter 20
23
I only know that in every city the Holy Spirit warns me that prison and hardships are facing me.
24
However, I consider my life worth nothing to me; my only aim is to finish the race and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given me—the task of testifying to the good news of God’s grace.
25
"Now I know that none of you among whom I have gone about preaching the kingdom will ever see me again.
26
Therefore, I declare to you today that I am innocent of the blood of any of you.
27
For I have not hesitated to proclaim to you the whole will of God.
28
Keep watch over yourselves and all the flock of which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers. Be shepherds of the church of God, which he bought with his own blood.
29
I know that after I leave, savage wolves will come in among you and will not spare the flock.
30
Even from your own number men will arise and distort the truth in order to draw away disciples after them.
31
So be on your guard! Remember that for three years I never stopped warning each of you night and day with tears.
