Acts 20:24

---

← Acts 20:23	Acts 20:24 (KJV)	Acts 20:25 →
Save that the Holy Ghost witnesseth in every city, saying that bonds and afflictions abide me.	But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God.	And now, behold, I know that ye all, among whom I have gone preaching the kingdom of God, shall see my face no more.
