Final Exhortation and Farewell
Acts 20:32-38
32
And now I commit you to God and to the word of His grace, which can build you up and give you an inheritance among all who are sanctified.
33
I have not coveted anyone’s silver or gold or clothing.
34

35
In everything, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words of the Lord Jesus Himself: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’”
36
When Paul had said this, he knelt down with all of them and prayed.
37
They all wept openly as they embraced Paul and kissed him.
38
They were especially grieved by his statement that they would never see his face again. Then they accompanied him to the ship.
