The Acts

¹⁹serving the Lord with all lowliness of mind, and with tears, and with trials which befell me by the plots of the Jews: ²⁰how that I shrank not from declaring unto you anything that was profitable, and teaching you publicly, and from house to house, ²¹testifying both to Jews and to Greeks repentance toward God, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ. ²²And now, behold, I go bound in the spirit unto Jerusalem, not knowing the things that shall befall me there: ²³save that the Holy Ghost testifieth unto me in every city, saying that bonds and afflictions abide me. ²⁴But I hold not my life of any account, as dear unto myself, so that I may accomplish my course, and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God. ²⁵And now, behold, I know that ye all, among whom I went about preaching the kingdom, shall see my face no more.
