Acts 20:28-32
New American Standard Bible
28 Be on guard for yourselves and for all (A)the flock, among which the Holy Spirit has made you [a]overseers, to shepherd (B)the church of God which (C)He [b]purchased [c]with His own blood. 29 I know that after my departure (D)savage wolves will come in among you, not sparing (E)the flock; 30 and from among your own selves men will arise, speaking perverse things to draw away (F)the disciples after them. 31 Therefore, be on the alert, remembering that night and day for a period of (G)three years I did not cease to admonish each one (H)with tears. 32 And now I (I)entrust you to God and to (J)the word of His grace, which is able to (K)build you up and to give you (L)the inheritance among all those who are sanctified.
