18 And when they came to him, he said to them,

“You yourselves know, (A)from the first day that I set foot in [a]Asia, how I was with you the whole time, 19 serving the Lord with all humility and with tears and trials which came upon me [b]through (B)the plots of the Jews; 20 how I (C)did not shrink from declaring to you anything that was beneficial, and teaching you publicly and [c]from house to house, 21 solemnly (D)testifying to both Jews and Greeks of (E)repentance toward God and (F)faith in our Lord Jesus Christ. 22 And now, behold, bound by the [d]Spirit, (G)I am on my way to Jerusalem, not knowing what will happen to me there, 23 except that (H)the Holy Spirit solemnly (I)testifies to me in every city, saying that (J)chains and afflictions await me. 24 But (K)I do not consider my life of any account as dear to myself, so that I may (L)finish my course and (M)the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to (N)testify solemnly of the gospel of (O)God’s grace.
