¹وبعد ما انتهى الشغب دعا بولس التلاميذ وودعهم وخرج ليذهب الى مكدونية‎.

¹And after the ceasing of the tumult, Paul having called near the disciples, and having embraced [them], went forth to go on to Macedonia;

²‎ولما كان قد اجتاز في تلك النواحي ووعظهم بكلام كثير جاء الى هلاس

²and having gone through those parts, and having exhorted them with many words, he came to Greece;

³فصرف ثلاثة اشهر. ثم اذ حصلت مكيدة من اليهود عليه وهو مزمع ان يصعد الى سورية صار رأي ان يرجع على طريق مكدونية‎.

³having made also three months` [stay] — a counsel of the Jews having been against him — being about to set forth to Syria, there came [to him] a resolution of returning through Macedonia.

⁴‎فرافقه الى اسيا سوباترس البيري. ومن اهل تسالونيكي ارسترخس وسكوندس وغايوس الدربي وتيموثاوس. ومن اهل اسيا تيخيكس وتروفيمس‎.

⁴And there were accompanying him unto Asia, Sopater of Berea, and of Thessalonians Aristarchus and Secundus, and Gaius of Derbe, and Timotheus, and of Asiatics Tychicus and Trophimus;

⁵‎هؤلاء سبقوا وانتظرونا في ترواس‎.

⁵these, having gone before, did remain for us in Troas,

⁶‎واما نحن فسافرنا في البحر بعد ايام الفطير من فيلبي ووافيناهم في خمسة ايام الى ترواس حيث صرفنا سبعة ايام

⁶and we sailed, after the days of the unleavened food, from Philippi, and came unto them to Troas in five days, where we abode seven days.

⁷وفي اول الاسبوع اذ كان التلاميذ مجتمعين ليكسروا خبزا خاطبهم بولس وهو مزمع ان يمضي في الغد واطال الكلام الى نصف الليل‎.

⁷And on the first of the week, the disciples having been gathered together to break bread, Paul was discoursing to them, about to depart on the morrow, he was also continuing the discourse till midnight,

⁸‎وكانت مصابيح كثيرة في العليّة التي كانوا مجتمعين فيها‎.

⁸and there were many lamps in the upper chamber where they were gathered together,

⁹‎وكان شاب اسمه افتيخوس جالسا في الطاقة متثقلا بنوم عميق. واذ كان بولس يخاطب خطابا طويلا غلب عليه النوم فسقط من الطبقة الثالثة الى اسفل وحمل ميتا‎.

⁹and there was sitting a certain youth, by name Eutychus, upon the window — being borne down by a deep sleep, Paul discoursing long — he having sunk down from the sleep, fell down from the third story, and was lifted up dead.

¹⁰‎فنزل بولس ووقع عليه واعتنقه قائلا لا تضطربوا لان نفسه فيه‎.

¹⁰And Paul, having gone down, fell upon him, and having embraced [him], said, `Make no tumult, for his life is in him;`

¹¹‎ثم صعد وكسر خبزا واكل وتكلم كثيرا الى الفجر. وهكذا خرج‎.

¹¹and having come up, and having broken bread, and having tasted, for a long time also having talked — till daylight, so he went forth,

¹²‎وأتوا بالفتى حيّا وتعزوا تعزية ليست بقليلة

¹²and they brought up the lad alive, and were comforted in no ordinary measure.

¹³واما نحن فسبقنا الى السفينة واقلعنا الى اسوس مزمعين ان نأخذ بولس من هناك لانه كان قد رتب هكذا مزمعا ان يمشي‎.

¹³And we having gone before unto the ship, did sail to Assos, thence intending to take in Paul, for so he had arranged, intending himself to go on foot;

¹⁴‎فلما وافانا الى اسوس اخذناه وأتينا الى ميتيليني‎.

¹⁴and when he met with us at Assos, having taken him up, we came to Mitylene,

¹⁵‎ثم سافرنا من هناك في البحر واقبلنا في الغد الى مقابل خيوس‏‎. ‎وفي اليوم الآخر وصلنا الى ساموس واقمنا في تروجيليون ثم في اليوم التالي جئنا الى ميليتس‎.

¹⁵and thence having sailed, on the morrow we came over-against Chios, and the next day we arrived at Samos, and having remained in Trogyllium, on the following day we came to Miletus,

¹⁶‎لان بولس عزم ان يتجاوز افسس في البحر لئلا يعرض له ان يصرف وقتا في اسيا. لانه كان يسرع حتى اذا امكنه يكون في اورشليم في يوم الخمسين

¹⁶for Paul decided to sail past Ephesus, that there may not be to him a loss of time in Asia, for he hasted, if it were possible for him, on the day of the Pentecost to be at Jerusalem.

¹⁷ومن ميليتس ارسل الى افسس واستدعى قسوس الكنيسة‎.

¹⁷And from Miletus, having sent to Ephesus, he called for the elders of the assembly,

¹⁸‎فلما جاءوا اليه قال لهم انتم تعلمون من اول يوم دخلت اسيا كيف كنت معكم كل الزمان‎.

¹⁸and when they were come unto him, he said to them, `Ye — ye know from the first day in which I came to Asia, how, with you at all times I was;

¹⁹‎اخدم الرب بكل تواضع ودموع كثيرة وبتجارب اصابتني بمكايد اليهود.

¹⁹serving the Lord with all humility, and many tears, and temptations, that befell me in the counsels of the Jews against [me];

²⁰كيف لم أؤخر شيئا من الفوائد الا واخبرتكم وعلمتكم به جهرا وفي كل بيت‎.

²⁰how nothing I did keep back of what things are profitable, not to declare to you, and to teach you publicly, and in every house,

²¹‎شاهدا لليهود واليونانيين بالتوبة الى الله والايمان الذي بربنا يسوع المسيح‎.

²¹testifying fully both to Jews and Greeks, toward God reformation, and faith toward our Lord Jesus Christ.

²²‎والآن ها انا اذهب الى اورشليم مقيدا بالروح لا اعلم ماذا يصادفني هناك‎.

²²`And now, lo, I — bound in the Spirit — go on to Jerusalem, the things that shall befall me in it not knowing,

²³‎غير ان الروح القدس يشهد في كل مدينة قائلا ان وثقا وشدائد تنتظرني‎.

²³save that the Holy Spirit in every city doth testify fully, saying, that for me bonds and tribulations remain;

²⁴‎ولكنني لست احتسب لشيء ولا نفسي ثمينة عندي حتى اتمم بفرح سعيي والخدمة التي اخذتها من الرب يسوع لاشهد ببشارة نعمة الله‎.

²⁴but I make account of none of these, neither do I count my life precious to myself, so that I finish my course with joy, and the ministration that I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify fully the good news of the grace of God.

²⁵‎والآن ها انا اعلم انكم لا ترون وجهي ايضا انتم جميعا الذين مررت بينكم كارزا بملكوت الله‎.

²⁵`And now, lo, I have known that no more shall ye see my face, — ye all among whom I did go preaching the reign of God;

²⁶‎لذلك أشهدكم اليوم هذا اني بريء من دم الجميع‎.

²⁶wherefore I take you to witness this day, that I [am] clear from the blood of all,

²⁷‎لاني لم أؤخر ان اخبركم بكل مشورة الله‎.

²⁷for I did not keep back from declaring to you all the counsel of God.

²⁸‎احترزوا اذا لانفسكم ولجميع الرعية التي اقامكم الروح القدس فيها اساقفة لترعوا كنيسة الله التي اقتناها بدمه‎.

²⁸`Take heed, therefore, to yourselves, and to all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit made you overseers, to feed the assembly of God that He acquired through His own blood,

²⁹‎لاني اعلم هذا انه بعد ذهابي سيدخل بينكم ذئاب خاطفة لا تشفق على الرعية‎.

²⁹for I have known this, that there shall enter in, after my departing, grievous wolves unto you, not sparing the flock,

³⁰‎ومنكم انتم سيقوم رجال يتكلمون بامور ملتوية ليجتذبوا التلاميذ وراءهم‎.

³⁰and of your own selves there shall arise men, speaking perverse things, to draw away the disciples after them.

³¹‎لذلك اسهروا متذكرين اني ثلاث سنين ليلا ونهارا لم افتر عن ان انذر بدموع كل واحد‎.

³¹`Therefore, watch, remembering that three years, night and day, I did not cease with tears warning each one;

³²‎والآن استودعكم يا اخوتي للّه ولكلمة نعمته القادرة ان تبنيكم وتعطيكم ميراثا مع جميع المقدسين‎.

³²and now, I commend you, brethren, to God, and to the word of His grace, that is able to build up, and to give you an inheritance among all those sanctified.

³³‎فضة او ذهب او لباس احد لم اشته‎.

³³`The silver or gold or garments of no one did I covet;

³⁴‎انتم تعلمون ان حاجاتي وحاجات الذين معي خدمتها هاتان اليدان‎.

³⁴and ye yourselves know that to my necessities, and to those who were with me, minister did these hands;

³⁵‎في كل شيء اريتكم انه هكذا ينبغي انكم تتعبون وتعضدون الضعفاء متذكرين كلمات الرب يسوع انه قال مغبوط هو العطاء اكثر من الاخذ‎.

³⁵all things I did shew you, that, thus labouring, it behoveth [us] to partake with the ailing, to be mindful also of the words of the Lord Jesus, that he himself said, It is more blessed to give than to receive.`

³⁶‎ولما قال هذا جثا على ركبتيه مع جميعهم وصلّى‎.

³⁶And these things having said, having bowed his knees, with them all, he did pray,

³⁷‎وكان بكاء عظيم من الجميع ووقعوا على عنق بولس يقبلونه

³⁷and there came a great weeping to all, and having fallen upon the neck of Paul, they were kissing him,

³⁸متوجعين ولا سيما من الكلمة التي قالها انهم لن يروا وجهه ايضا. ثم شيعوه الى السفينة

³⁸sorrowing most of all for the word that he had said — that they are about no more to see his face; and they were accompanying him to the ship.
