hich the Holy Spirit has made you bishops, to feed the church of the Lord which he has purchased with his blood. [20:29]For I know that after my departure grievous wolves will come among you, not sparing the flock, [20:30]and of yourselves men will arise speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them. [20:31]Wherefore watch, remembering that for three years, night and day, I ceased not to admonish every one of you with tears. [20:32]And now I commend you to God, and the word of his grace, who is able to build you up and to give you an inheritance with all the sanctified. [20:33]I have coveted no man's silver or gold or clothing; [20:34]you yourselves know that these hands have served my necessities and those with me. [20:35]I have showed you all things, that so laboring you ought to help the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that he said, It is more blessed to give than to receive. 6 [20:36]And having said these words he kneeled down, and prayed with them all. [20:37]And they all wept much, and fell on Paul's neck and kissed him, [20:38] grieving most of all for the word which he said, that they should see his face no more. And they accompanied him to the ship. CHAPTER XIX. PAUL AND HIS COMPANY PURSUING THEIR JOURNEY TO CAESAREA AND JERUSALEM, ETC.--A.D. 59. 1 [21:1]AND when we had torn ourselves from them we set sail, and going in a straight course came to Cos, and on the next day to Rhodes, and thence to Patara. [21:2]And finding a ship crossing to Phenicia, going on board we set sail. [21:3]And observing Cyprus, and leaving it on the left, we sailed to Syria, and landed at Tyre; for there the ship was to discharge her cargo. [21:4] And finding the disciples we continued there seven days; and they told Paul, by the Spirit, not to go on to Jerusalem. [21:5]And when we had completed the days we went out and proceeded on our journey, they all attending us with their wives and children till without the city, and kneeling down on the shore we prayed, [21:6]and having saluted each other we went to the ship, and they returned to their homes. 2 [21:7]Having completed our voyage from Tyre we went to Ptolemais, and having saluted the brothers continued with them one day. [21:8]And departing on the next day we came to Caesarea, and going to the house of Philip the evangelist, who was one of the seven, we staid with him. [21:9]This man had four virgin daughters who prophesied. [21:10
