Acts 20:25

²³ 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.

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

²⁶ Therefore I testify to you this day that I am innocent of the blood of all men.

²⁷ For I did not shrink back from declaring to you the whole will of God.
