Paul's Farewell To The Ephesian Elders

²³ only this, that the Holy Ghost witnesseth in every city, saying, that bonds and tribulation await thee. ²⁴ Yet I make no account of any [suffering], nor regard my life as of any value to myself, farther than as I may finish my course with joy, and the ministry which I have received of the Lord, to testify fully the Gospel of the grace of God. ²⁵ And now behold, I know that ye shall see my face no more, even ye all, among whom I have gone in and out preaching the kingdom of God.
