Acts 20:23

²¹ testifying to Jews and Greeks alike about repentance to God and faith in our Lord Jesus Christ.

²² And now, compelled by the Spirit, I am going to Jerusalem, not knowing what will happen to me there.

I only know that in town after town the Holy Spirit warns me that chains and afflictions await me.

²⁴ But I consider my life of no value to me, if only I may finish my course and complete the ministry I have received from the Lord Jesus—the ministry of testifying to the good news of God’s grace.

²⁵ Now I know that none of you among whom I have preached the kingdom will see my face again.
