Acts 20:29-36

²⁹I know that after my departure, vicious wolves will come in among you and will not spare the flock.

³⁰I know that from even among you some men shall come and distort the truth in order to draw away the disciples after them.

³¹So be on guard. Remember that for three years I did not stop instructing every one of you with tears night and day.

³²Now I entrust you to God and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up and to give you the inheritance among all those who are being sanctified.

³³I coveted no man's silver, gold, or clothing.

³⁴You yourselves know that these hands served my own needs and the needs of those who were with me.

³⁵In all things I gave you an example of how you should help the weak by working, and of how you should remember the words of the Lord Jesus, words that he himself said: “It is more blessed to give than to receive.”

³⁶After he had spoken in this way, he knelt down and prayed with them all.
