15And going from there by sea, we came on the day after opposite Chios, and touching at Samos on the day after that, we came on the third day to Miletus.
16For Paul's purpose was to go past Ephesus, so that he might not be kept in Asia; for he was going quickly, in order, if possible, to be at Jerusalem on the day of Pentecost.
17And from Miletus he sent to Ephesus for the rulers of the church.
18And when they had come, he said to them, You yourselves have seen what my life has been like all the time from the day when I first came into Asia,
19Doing the Lord's work without pride, through all the sorrow and troubles which came on me because of the evil designs of the Jews:
20And how I kept back nothing which might be of profit to you, teaching you publicly and privately,
21Preaching to Jews and to Greeks the need for a turning of the heart to God, and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.
