20:17And sending from Miletus to Ephesus, he called the leaders of the church.

18And when they were come to him, and were together, he said to them: You know from the first day that I came into Asia, in what manner I have been with you, for all the time,

19Serving the Lord with all humility, and with tears, and temptations which befell me by the conspiracies of the Jews;

20How I have kept back nothing that was profitable to you, but have preached it to you, and taught you publicly, and from house to house,

21Testifying both to Jews and Gentiles penance towards God, and faith in our Lord Jesus Christ.

22And now, look, being bound in the spirit, I go to Jerusalem: not knowing the things which shall befall me there:

23Save that the Holy Ghost in every city witnesseth to me, saying: That bands and afflictions wait for me at Jerusalem.

24But I fear none of these things, neither do I count my life more precious than myself, so that I may consummate my course and the ministry of the word which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God.

25And now look, I know that all you, among whom I have gone preaching the kingdom of God, shall see my face no more.

26Therefore I take you to witness this day, that I am clear from the blood of all men;

27For I have not spared to declare to you all the guidance of God.

68:10You shall set aside for your gift a free rain, O God: and it was weakened, but you have made it perfect.

11In it shall your animals dwell; in your sweetness, O God, you have provided for the poor.

20Blessed be the Lord day by day: the God of our salvation will make our journey prosperous to us.

21Our God is the God of salvation: and of the Lord, of the Lord are the issues from death.

17:1These things Jesus spoke, and lifting up his eyes to heaven, he said: Father, the hour is come, glorify your Son, that your Son may glorify you.

2As you have given him power over all flesh, that he may give eternal life to all whom you have given him.

3Now this is eternal life: That they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.

4I have glorified you on the earth; I have finished the work which you gavest me to do.

5And now glorify you me, O Father, with yourself, with the glory which I had, before the world was, with you.

6I have shown your name to the men whom you have given me out of the world. Yours they were, and to me you gavest them; and they have kept your word.

7Now they have known, that all things which you have given me, are from you:

8Because the words which you gavest me, I have given to them; and they have received them, and have known in very deed that I came out from you, and they have believed that you did send me.

9I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them whom you have given me: because they are yours:

10And all my things are yours, and yours are mine; and I am glorified in them.

11And now I am not in the world, and these are in the world, and I come to you. Holy Father, keep them in your name whom you has given me; that they may be one, as we also are.
