²² And now, behold, bound by the ^[a]Spirit, ^(A)I am on my way to Jerusalem, not knowing what will happen to me there, ²³ except that ^(B)the Holy Spirit solemnly ^(C)testifies to me in every city, saying that ^(D)chains and afflictions await me. ²⁴ But ^(E)I do not consider my life of any account as dear to myself, so that I may ^(F)finish my course and ^(G)the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to ^(H)testify solemnly of the gospel of ^(I)God’s grace.

²⁵ “And now behold, I know that all of you, among whom I went about ^(J)preaching the kingdom, will no longer see my face. ²⁶ Therefore, I ^[b]testify to you this day that ^(K)I am ^[c]innocent of the blood of all people. ²⁷ For I ^(L)did not shrink from declaring to you the whole ^(M)purpose of God. ²⁸ Be on guard for yourselves and for all ^(N)the flock, among which the Holy Spirit has made you ^[d]overseers, to shepherd ^(O)the church of God which ^(P)He ^[e]purchased ^[f]with His own blood. ²⁹ I know that after my departure ^(Q)savage wolves will come in among you, not sparing ^(R)the flock; ³⁰ and from among your own selves men will arise, speaking perverse things to draw away ^(S)the disciples after them. ³¹ Therefore, be on the alert, remembering that night and day for a period of ^(T)three years I did not cease to admonish each one ^(U)with tears. ³² And now I ^(V)entrust you to God and to ^(W)the word of His grace, which is able to ^(X)build you up and to give you ^(Y)the inheritance among all those who are sanctified.
