2 Cum autemperambulasset partes illas et exhortatus eos fuisset multo sermone, venit adGraeciam;	2 And when he had gone over those parts, and had exhorted them with many words, he came into Greece;
3 cumque fecisset menses tres, factae sunt illi insidiae a Iudaeisnavigaturo in Syriam, habuitque consilium, ut reverteretur per Macedoniam.	3 Where, when he had spent three months, the Jews laid wait for him, as he was about to sail into Syria; so he took a resolution to return through Macedonia.
4 Comitabatur autem eum Sopater Pyrrhi Beroeensis, Thessalonicensium veroAristarchus et Secundus et Gaius Derbeus et Timotheus, Asiani vero Tychicus etTrophimus.	4 And there accompanied him Sopater the son of Pyrrhus, of Berea; and of the Thessalonians, Aristarchus, and Secundus, and Gaius of Derbe, and Timothy; and of Asia, Tychicus and Trophimus.
5 Hi cum praecessissent, sustinebant nos Troade;	5 These going before, stayed for us at Troas.
6 nos veronavigavimus post dies Azymorum a Philippis et venimus ad eos Troadem in diebusquinque, ubi demorati sumus diebus septem.	6 But we sailed from Philippi after the days of the Azymes, and came to them to Troas in five days, where we abode seven days.
7 In una autem sabbatorum, cum convenissemus ad frangendum panem, Paulusdisputabat eis, profecturus in crastinum, protraxitque sermonem usque in mediamnoctem.	7 And on the first day of the week, when we were assembled to break bread, Paul discoursed with them, being to depart on the morrow: and he continued his speech until midnight.
8 Erant autem lampades copiosae in cenaculo, ubi eramus congregati;	8 And there were a great number of lamps in the upper chamber where we were assembled.
9 sedens autem quidam adulescens nomine Eutychus super fenestram, cum mergeretursomno gravi, disputante diutius Paulo, eductus somno cecidit de tertio cenaculodeorsum et sublatus est mortuus.	9 And a certain young man named Eutychus, sitting on the window, being oppressed with a deep sleep, (as Paul was long preaching,) by occasion of his sleep fell from the third loft down, and was taken up dead.
10 Cum descendisset autem Paulus, incubuitsuper eum et complexus dixit: “ Nolite turbari, anima enim ipsius in eo est!”.	10 To whom, when Paul had gone down, he laid himself upon him, and embracing him, said: Be not troubled, for his soul is in him.
11 Ascendens autem frangensque panem et gustans satisque allocutus usque inlucem, sic profectus est.	11 Then going up, and breaking bread and tasting, and having talked a long time to them, until daylight, so he departed.
12 Adduxerunt autem puerum viventem et consolati suntnon minime.	12 And they brought the youth alive, and were not a little comforted.
13 Nos autem praecedentes navi enavigavimus in Asson, inde suscepturi Paulum;sic enim disposuerat volens ipse per terram iter facere.	13 But we, going aboard the ship, sailed to Assos, being there to take in Paul; for so he had appointed, himself purposing to travel by land.
14 Cum autemconvenisset nos in Asson, assumpto eo, venimus Mitylenen	14 And when he had met with us at Assos, we took him in, and came to Mitylene.
15 et inde navigantessequenti die pervenimus contra Chium et alia applicuimus Samum et sequentivenimus Miletum.	15 And sailing thence, the day following we came over against Chios; and the next day we arrived at Samos; and the day following we came to Miletus.
16 Proposuerat enim Paulus transnavigare Ephesum, ne qua morailli fieret in Asia; festinabat enim, si possibile sibi esset, ut diemPentecosten faceret Hierosolymis.	16 For Paul had determined to sail by Ephesus, lest he should be stayed any time in Asia. For he hasted, if it were possible for him, to keep the day of Pentecost at Jerusalem.
17 A Mileto autem mittens Ephesum convocavit presbyteros ecclesiae.	17 And sending from Miletus to Ephesus, he called the ancients of the church.
18 Qui cumvenissent ad eum, dixit eis: “ Vos scitis a prima die, qua ingressus sum inAsiam, qualiter vobiscum per omne tempus fuerim,	18 And when they were come to him, and were together, he said to them: You know from the first day that I came into Asia, in what manner I have been with you, for all the time,
19 serviens Domino cum omnihumilitate et lacrimis et tentationibus, quae mihi acciderunt in insidiisIudaeorum;	19 Serving the Lord with all humility, and with tears, and temptations which befell me by the conspiracies of the Jews;
20 quomodo nihil subtraxerim utilium, quominus annuntiarem vobis etdocerem vos publice et per domos,	20 How I have kept back nothing that was profitable to you, but have preached it to you, and taught you publicly, and from house to house,
21 testificans Iudaeis atque Graecis in Deumpaenitentiam et fidem in Dominum nostrum Iesum.	21 Testifying both to Jews and Gentiles penance towards God, and faith in our Lord Jesus Christ.
22 Et nunc ecce alligatus egoSpiritu vado in Ierusalem, quae in ea eventura sint mihi ignorans,	22 And now, behold, being bound in the spirit, I go to Jerusalem: not knowing the things which shall befall me there:
23 nisi quodSpiritus Sanctus per omnes civitates protestatur mihi dicens quoniam vincula ettribulationes me manent.	23 Save that the Holy Ghost in every city witnesseth to me, saying: That bands and afflictions wait for me at Jerusalem.
24 Sed nihili facio animam meam pretiosam mihi, dummodoconsummem cursum meum et ministerium, quod accepi a Domino Iesu, testificarievangelium gratiae Dei.	24 But I fear none of these things, neither do I count my life more precious than myself, so that I may consummate my course and the ministry of the word which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God.
25 Et nunc ecce ego scio quia amplius non videbitis faciem meam vos omnes, perquos transivi praedicans regnum;	25 And now behold, I know that all you, among whom I have gone preaching the kingdom of God, shall see my face no more.
26 quapropter contestor vos hodierna die, quiamundus sum a sanguine omnium;	26 Wherefore I take you to witness this day, that I am clear from the blood of all men;
27 non enim subterfugi, quominus annuntiarem omneconsilium Dei vobis.	27 For I have not spared to declare unto you all the counsel of God.
28 Attendite vobis et universo gregi, in quo vos SpiritusSanctus posuit episcopos, pascere ecclesiam Dei, quam acquisivit sanguine suo.	28 Take heed to yourselves, and to the whole flock, wherein the Holy Ghost hath placed you bishops, to rule the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.
29 Ego scio quoniam intrabunt post discessionem meam lupi graves in vos nonparcentes gregi;	29 I know that, after my departure, ravening wolves will enter in among you, not sparing the flock.
30 et ex vobis ipsis exsurgent viri loquentes perversa, utabstrahant discipulos post se.	30 And of your own selves shall arise men speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them.
31 Propter quod vigilate, memoria retinentesquoniam per triennium nocte et die non cessavi cum lacrimis monens unumquemquevestrum.	31 Therefore watch, keeping in memory, that for three years I ceased not, with tears to admonish every one of you night and day.
32 Et nunc commendo vos Deo et verbo gratiae ipsius, qui potens est aedificareet dare hereditatem in sanctificatis omnibus.	32 And now I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, who is able to build up, and to give an inheritance among all the sanctified.
33 Argentum aut aurum aut vestemnullius concupivi;	33 I have not coveted any man's silver, gold, or apparel, as
34 ipsi scitis quoniam ad ea, quae mihi opus erant et his,qui mecum sunt, ministraverunt manus istae.	34 You yourselves know: for such things as were needful for me and them that are with me, these hands have furnished.
35 Omnia ostendi vobis quoniam siclaborantes oportet suscipere infirmos, ac meminisse verborum Domini Iesu,quoniam ipse dixit: “Beatius est magis dare quam accipere!” ”.	35 I have shewed you all things, how that so labouring you ought to support the weak, and to remember the word of the Lord Jesus, how he said: It is a more blessed thing to give, rather than to receive.
36 Et cum haec dixisset, positis genibus suis, cum omnibus illis oravit.	36 And when he had said these things, kneeling down, he prayed with them all.
37 Magnus autem fletus factus est omnium; et procumbentes super collum Pauliosculabantur eum	37 And there was much weeping among them all; and falling on the neck of Paul, they kissed him,
38 dolentes maxime in verbo, quod dixerat, quoniam ampliusfaciem eius non essent visuri. Et deducebant eum ad navem.	38 Being grieved most of all for the word which he had said, that they should see his face no more. And they brought him on his way to the ship.
