9And 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.

9And a certain youth, by name Eutychus, sitting at the window-opening, overpowered by deep sleep, while Paul discoursed very much at length, having been overpowered by the sleep, fell from the third story down to the bottom, and was taken up dead.

10And Paul went down, and fell on him, and embracing him said, Make ye no ado; for his life is in him.

10To whom, when Paul had gone down, he laid himself upon him and, embracing him, said: Be not troubled, for his soul is in him.

10But Paul descending fell upon him, and enfolding [him] [in his arms], said, Be not troubled, for his life is in him.

11And when he was gone up, and had broken the bread, and eaten, and had talked with them a long while, even till break of day, so he departed.

11Then going up and breaking bread and tasting and having talked a long time to them, until daylight, so he departed.

13And we, having gone before on board ship, sailed off to Assos, going to take in Paul there; for so he had directed, he himself being about to go on foot.

19serving the Lord with all lowliness of mind, and with tears, and with trials which befell me by the plots of the Jews;

19Serving the Lord with all humility and with tears and temptations which befell me by the conspiracies of the Jews:

19serving the Lord with all lowliness, and tears, and temptations, which happened to me through the plots of the Jews;

20how I shrank not from declaring unto you anything that was profitable, and teaching you publicly, and from house to house,

20How 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,

20how I held back nothing of what is profitable, so as not to announce [it] to you, and to teach you publicly and in every house,

22And now, behold, being bound in the spirit, I go to Jerusalem: not knowing the things which shall befall me there:

22And now, behold, bound in my spirit I go to Jerusalem, not knowing what things shall happen to me in it;

23save that the Holy Spirit testifieth unto me in every city, saying that bonds and afflictions abide me.

23Save that the Holy Ghost in every city witnesseth to me, saying: That bands and afflictions wait for me at Jerusalem.

23only that the Holy Spirit testifies to me in every city, saying that bonds and tribulations await 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.

24But 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.

24But I make no account of [my] life [as] dear to myself, so that I finish my course, and the ministry which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the glad tidings of the grace ofGod.

25And now, behold, I know that ye all, among whom I went about preaching the kingdom, shall see my face no more.

26Wherefore I take you to witness this day that I am clear from the blood of all men.

29I know that after my departing grievous wolves shall enter in among you, not sparing the flock;

29I know that after my departure ravening wolves will enter in among you, not sparing the flock.

29[For] I know [this,] that there will come in amongst you after my departure grievous wolves, not sparing the flock;

30and from among your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away the disciples after them.

30And of your own selves shall arise men speaking perverse things, to draw away disciples after them.

30and from among your own selves shall rise up men speaking perverted things to draw away the disciples after them.

31Wherefore watch ye, remembering that by the space of three years I ceased not to admonish every one night and day with tears.

31Therefore watch, keeping in memory that for three years I ceased not with tears to admonish every one of you, night and day.

34You yourselves know. For such things as were needful for me and them that are with me, these hands have furnished.

34Yourselves know that these hands have ministered to my wants, and to those who were with me.

35In all things I gave you an example, that so laboring ye 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.

35I 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.
