World English Bible
1μετα δε το παυσασθαι τον θορυβον προσκαλεσαμενοσ ο παυλοσ τουσ μαθητασ και ασπασαμενοσ εξηλθεν πορευθηναι εισ την μακεδονιαν
1After the uproar had ceased, Paul sent for the disciples, took leave of them, and departed to go into Macedonia.
2διελθων δε τα μερη εκεινα και παρακαλεσασ αυτουσ λογω πολλω ηλθεν εισ την ελλαδα
2When he had gone through those parts and had encouraged them with many words, he came into Greece.
3ποιησασ τε μηνασ τρεισ γενομενησ αυτω επιβουλησ υπο των ιουδαιων μελλοντι αναγεσθαι εισ την συριαν εγενετο γνωμη του υποστρεφειν δια μακεδονιασ
3When he had spent three months there, and a plot was made against him by Jews as he was about to set sail for Syria, he determined to return through Macedonia.
4συνειπετο δε αυτω αχρι τησ ασιασ σωπατροσ βεροιαιοσ θεσσαλονικεων δε αρισταρχοσ και σεκουνδοσ και γαιοσ δερβαιοσ και τιμοθεοσ ασιανοι δε τυχικοσ και τροφιμοσ
4These accompanied him as far as Asia: Sopater of Beroea, Aristarchus and Secundus of the Thessalonians, Gaius of Derbe, Timothy, and Tychicus and Trophimus of Asia.
5ουτοι προσελθοντεσ εμενον ημασ εν τρωαδι
5But these had gone ahead, and were waiting for us at Troas.
6ημεισ δε εξεπλευσαμεν μετα τασ ημερασ των αζυμων απο φιλιππων και ηλθομεν προσ αυτουσ εισ την τρωαδα αχρι ημερων πεντε ου διετριψαμεν ημερασ επτα
6We sailed away from Philippi after the days of Unleavened Bread, and came to them at Troas in five days, where we stayed seven days.
7εν δε τη μια των σαββατων συνηγμενων των μαθητων κλασαι αρτον ο παυλοσ διελεγετο αυτοισ μελλων εξιεναι τη επαυριον παρετεινεν τε τον λογον μεχρι μεσονυκτιου
7On the first day of the week, when the disciples were gathered together to break bread, Paul talked with them, intending to depart on the next day; and continued his speech until midnight.
8ησαν δε λαμπαδεσ ικαναι εν τω υπερωω ου ημεν συνηγμενοι
8There were many lights in the upper room where we were gathered together.
9καθημενοσ δε τισ νεανιασ ονοματι ευτυχοσ επι τησ θυριδοσ καταφερομενοσ υπνω βαθει διαλεγομενου του παυλου επι πλειον κατενεχθεισ απο του υπνου επεσεν απο του τριστεγου κατω και ηρθη νεκροσ
9A certain young man named Eutychus sat in the window, weighed down with deep sleep. As Paul spoke still longer, being weighed down by his sleep, he fell down from the third floor and was taken up dead.
10καταβασ δε ο παυλοσ επεπεσεν αυτω και συμπεριλαβων ειπεν μη θορυβεισθε η γαρ ψυχη αυτου εν αυτω εστιν
10Paul went down and fell upon him, and embracing him said, “Don’t be troubled, for his life is in him.”
11αναβασ δε και κλασασ αρτον και γευσαμενοσ εφ ικανον τε ομιλησασ αχρι αυγησ ουτωσ εξηλθεν
11When he had gone up, had broken bread and eaten, and had talked with them a long while, even until break of day, he departed.
12ηγαγον δε τον παιδα ζωντα και παρεκληθησαν ου μετριωσ
12They brought the boy in alive, and were greatly comforted.
13ημεισ δε προσελθοντεσ επι το πλοιον ανηχθημεν εισ την ασσον εκειθεν μελλοντεσ αναλαμβανειν τον παυλον ουτωσ γαρ ην διατεταγμενοσ μελλων αυτοσ πεζευειν
13But we, going ahead to the ship, set sail for Assos, intending to take Paul aboard there; for he had so arranged, intending himself to go by land.
14ωσ δε συνεβαλεν ημιν εισ την ασσον αναλαβοντεσ αυτον ηλθομεν εισ μιτυληνην
14When he met us at Assos, we took him aboard and came to Mitylene.
15κακειθεν αποπλευσαντεσ τη επιουση κατηντησαμεν αντικρυ χιου τη δε ετερα παρεβαλομεν εισ σαμον και μειναντεσ εν τρωγυλλιω τη εχομενη ηλθομεν εισ μιλητον
15Sailing from there, we came the following day opposite Chios. The next day we touched at Samos and stayed at Trogyllium, and the day after we came to Miletus.
16εκρινεν γαρ ο παυλοσ παραπλευσαι την εφεσον οπωσ μη γενηται αυτω χρονοτριβησαι εν τη ασια εσπευδεν γαρ ει δυνατον ην αυτω την ημεραν τησ πεντηκοστησ γενεσθαι εισ ιεροσολυμα
16For Paul had determined to sail past Ephesus, that he might not have to spend time in Asia; for he was hastening, if it were possible for him, to be in Jerusalem on the day of Pentecost.
17απο δε τησ μιλητου πεμψασ εισ εφεσον μετεκαλεσατο τουσ πρεσβυτερουσ τησ εκκλησιασ
17From Miletus he sent to Ephesus and called to himself the elders of the assembly.
18ωσ δε παρεγενοντο προσ αυτον ειπεν αυτοισ υμεισ επιστασθε απο πρωτησ ημερασ αφ ησ επεβην εισ την ασιαν πωσ μεθ υμων τον παντα χρονον εγενομην
18When they had come to him, he said to them, “You yourselves know, from the first day that I set foot in Asia, how I was with you all the time,
19δουλευων τω κυριω μετα πασησ ταπεινοφροσυνησ και πολλων δακρυων και πειρασμων των συμβαντων μοι εν ταισ επιβουλαισ των ιουδαιων
19serving the Lord with all humility, with many tears, and with trials which happened to me by the plots of the Jews;
20ωσ ουδεν υπεστειλαμην των συμφεροντων του μη αναγγειλαι υμιν και διδαξαι υμασ δημοσια και κατ οικουσ
20how I didn’t shrink from declaring to you anything that was profitable, teaching you publicly and from house to house,
21διαμαρτυρομενοσ ιουδαιοισ τε και ελλησιν την εισ τον θεον μετανοιαν και πιστιν την εισ τον κυριον ημων ιησουν
21testifying both to Jews and to Greeks repentance toward God and faith toward our Lord Jesus.
22και νυν ιδου εγω δεδεμενοσ τω πνευματι πορευομαι εισ ιερουσαλημ τα εν αυτη συναντησοντα μοι μη ειδωσ
22Now, behold, I go bound by the Spirit to Jerusalem, not knowing what will happen to me there;
23πλην οτι το πνευμα το αγιον κατα πολιν διαμαρτυρεται λεγον οτι δεσμα με και θλιψεισ μενουσιν
23except that the Holy Spirit testifies in every city, saying that bonds and afflictions wait for me.
24αλλ ουδενοσ λογον ποιουμαι ουδε εχω την ψυχην μου τιμιαν εμαυτω ωσ τελειωσαι τον δρομον μου μετα χαρασ και την διακονιαν ην ελαβον παρα του κυριου ιησου διαμαρτυρασθαι το ευαγγελιον τησ χαριτοσ του θεου
24But these things don’t count; nor do I hold my life dear to myself, so that I may finish my race with joy, and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to fully testify to the Good News of the grace of God.
25και νυν ιδου εγω οιδα οτι ουκετι οψεσθε το προσωπον μου υμεισ παντεσ εν οισ διηλθον κηρυσσων την βασιλειαν του θεου
25“Now, behold, I know that you all, among whom I went about preaching God’s Kingdom, will see my face no more.
26διοτι μαρτυρομαι υμιν εν τη σημερον ημερα οτι καθαροσ εγω απο του αιματοσ παντων
26Therefore I testify to you today that I am clean from the blood of all men,
27ου γαρ υπεστειλαμην του μη αναγγειλαι υμιν πασαν την βουλην του θεου
27for I didn’t shrink from declaring to you the whole counsel of God.
28προσεχετε ουν εαυτοισ και παντι τω ποιμνιω εν ω υμασ το πνευμα το αγιον εθετο επισκοπουσ ποιμαινειν την εκκλησιαν του κυριου και θεου ην περιεποιησατο δια του ιδιου αιματοσ
28Take heed, therefore, to yourselves and to all the flock, in which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the assembly of the Lord and God which he purchased with his own blood.
29εγω γαρ οιδα τουτο οτι εισελευσονται μετα την αφιξιν μου λυκοι βαρεισ εισ υμασ μη φειδομενοι του ποιμνιου
29For I know that after my departure, vicious wolves will enter in among you, not sparing the flock.
30και εξ υμων αυτων αναστησονται ανδρεσ λαλουντεσ διεστραμμενα του αποσπαν τουσ μαθητασ οπισω αυτων
30Men will arise from among your own selves, speaking perverse things, to draw away the disciples after them.
31διο γρηγορειτε μνημονευοντεσ οτι τριετιαν νυκτα και ημεραν ουκ επαυσαμην μετα δακρυων νουθετων ενα εκαστον
31Therefore watch, remembering that for a period of three years I didn’t cease to admonish everyone night and day with tears.
32και τα νυν παρατιθεμαι υμασ αδελφοι τω θεω και τω λογω τησ χαριτοσ αυτου τω δυναμενω εποικοδομησαι και δουναι υμιν κληρονομιαν εν τοισ ηγιασμενοισ πασιν
32Now, brothers, I entrust you to God and to the word of his grace, which is able to build up and to give you the inheritance among all those who are sanctified.
33αργυριου η χρυσιου η ιματισμου ουδενοσ επεθυμησα
33I coveted no one’s silver, gold, or clothing.
34αυτοι γινωσκετε οτι ταισ χρειαισ μου και τοισ ουσιν μετ εμου υπηρετησαν αι χειρεσ αυται
34You yourselves know that these hands served my necessities, and those who were with me.
35παντα υπεδειξα υμιν οτι ουτωσ κοπιωντασ δει αντιλαμβανεσθαι των ασθενουντων μνημονευειν τε των λογων του κυριου ιησου οτι αυτοσ ειπεν μακαριον εστιν μαλλον διδοναι η λαμβανειν
35In all things I gave you an example, that so laboring you ought to help the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that he himself said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’ ”
36και ταυτα ειπων θεισ τα γονατα αυτου συν πασιν αυτοισ προσηυξατο
36When he had spoken these things, he knelt down and prayed with them all.
37ικανοσ δε εγενετο κλαυθμοσ παντων και επιπεσοντεσ επι τον τραχηλον του παυλου κατεφιλουν αυτον
37They all wept freely, and fell on Paul’s neck and kissed him,
38οδυνωμενοι μαλιστα επι τω λογω ω ειρηκει οτι ουκετι μελλουσιν το προσωπον αυτου θεωρειν προεπεμπον δε αυτον εισ το πλοιον
38sorrowing most of all because of the word which he had spoken, that they should see his face no more. Then they accompanied him to the ship.
