Paulus in Mazedonien und Griechenland

1 Nachdem sich aber der Tumult gelegt hatte, rief Paulus die Jünger zu sich, und als er Abschied von ihnen genommen hatte, zog er fort, um nach Mazedonien zu reisen. (1Kor 16,5; 2Kor 2,13) 2 Und nachdem er jene Gebiete durchzogen und sie mit vielen Worten ermahnt hatte, kam er nach Griechenland. (2Kor 7,5; 1Thess 2,11) 3 Und er brachte dort drei Monate zu; und da ihm die Juden nachstellten, als er nach Syrien abfahren wollte, entschloss er sich, über Mazedonien zurückzukehren. (Apg 20,19; Apg 23,12; Apg 25,3; 2Kor 11,26)

Apg 20,19Apg 23,12Apg 25,32Kor 11,26

4 Es begleiteten ihn aber bis nach [der Provinz] Asia Sopater von Beröa, von den Thessalonichern Aristarchus und Sekundus, und Gajus von Derbe und Timotheus, aus Asia aber Tychikus und Trophimus. (Apg 17,10; Apg 19,29; Eph 6,21; Kol 4,7; 2Tim 4,12)

Apg 17,10Apg 19,29Eph 6,21Kol 4,72Tim 4,12

5 Diese gingen voraus und warteten auf uns in Troas. (Apg 16,8; 2Kor 2,12)

In Troas. Die Auferweckung des Eutychus

6 Wir aber fuhren nach den Tagen der ungesäuerten Brote von Philippi ab und kamen in fünf Tagen zu ihnen nach Troas, wo wir uns sieben Tage aufhielten. (2Mo 23,15; Apg 21,4; Apg 28,14) 7 Am ersten Tag der Woche aber, als die Jünger versammelt waren, um das Brot zu brechen, unterredete sich Paulus mit ihnen, da er am folgenden Tag abreisen wollte, und er dehnte die Rede bis Mitternacht aus. (Joh 20,1; Joh 20,19; Joh 20,26; Apg 2,42; 1Kor 10,16; 1Kor 11,20; 1Kor 16,2)

Joh 20,1Joh 20,19Joh 20,26Apg 2,421Kor 10,161Kor 11,201Kor 16,2

8 Es waren aber zahlreiche Lampen in dem Obersaal, wo sie versammelt waren. 9 Und ein junger Mann namens Eutychus saß am Fenster; der sank in einen tiefen Schlaf; während Paulus weiterredete, fiel er, vom Schlaf überwältigt, vom dritten Stock hinab und wurde tot aufgehoben. (Mk 9,26; Apg 14,19) 10 Da ging Paulus hinab und warf sich über ihn, umfasste ihn und sprach: Macht keinen Lärm; denn seine Seele ist in ihm! (Lk 8,52) 11 Und er ging wieder hinauf und brach Brot, aß und unterredete sich noch lange mit ihnen, bis der Tag anbrach, und zog dann fort. (Mt 13,52; Röm 15,29; Eph 3,8) 12 Sie brachten aber den Knaben lebendig herbei und waren nicht wenig getröstet. (Jes 40,1; 2Kor 1,3)

Weiterreise nach Milet

13 Wir aber gingen voraus zum Schiff und fuhren nach Assus, um dort Paulus an Bord zu nehmen; denn so hatte er es angeordnet, weil er zu Fuß reisen wollte. (Apg 16,10) 14 Als er aber in Assus mit uns zusammentraf, nahmen wir ihn an Bord und kamen nach Mitylene. 15 Und von dort segelten wir ab und kamen am folgenden Tag auf die Höhe von Chios; tags darauf aber fuhren wir nach Samos, und nach einem Aufenthalt in Trogyllium gelangten wir am nächsten Tag nach Milet. (2Tim 4,20) 16 Paulus hatte nämlich beschlossen, an Ephesus vorbeizusegeln, damit er in [der Provinz] Asia nicht zu viel Zeit zubringen müsste; denn er beeilte sich, um möglichst am Tag der Pfingsten in Jerusalem zu sein. (3Mo 23,16; 5Mo 16,9; Apg 2,1; Apg 19,21; Apg 24,17; Röm 15,25)

Die Abschiedsrede des Paulus an die Ältesten von Ephesus

17 Von Milet aber sandte er nach Ephesus und ließ die Ältesten der Gemeinde herüberrufen. (Apg 20,28; 1Tim 5,17; Tit 1,5) 18 Und als sie zu ihm gekommen waren, sprach er zu ihnen: Ihr wisst, wie ich mich vom ersten Tag an, als ich Asia betrat, die ganze Zeit unter euch verhalten habe, (Apg 16,6; 2Kor 1,12) 19 dass ich dem Herrn diente mit aller Demut, unter vielen’ Tränen und Anfechtungen, die mir widerfuhren durch die Nachstellungen der Juden; (Apg 20,3; 2Kor 2,4; 2Kor 4,5; 2Kor 4,8; Phil 3,18)

Apg 20,32Kor 2,42Kor 4,52Kor 4,8Phil 3,18

20 und wie ich nichts verschwiegen habe von dem, was nützlich ist, sondern es euch verkündigt und euch gelehrt habe, öffentlich und in den Häusern, (Apg 20,27; Apg 20,31; 2Tim 4,2)

Apg 20,27Apg 20,312Tim 4,2

21 indem ich Juden und Griechen die Buße zu Gott und den Glauben an unseren Herrn Jesus Christus bezeugt habe. (Apg 16,31; Apg 17,30; Röm 1,14; Röm 1,16)

Apg 16,31Apg 17,30Röm 1,14Röm 1,16

22 Und siehe, jetzt reise ich gebunden im Geist nach Jerusalem, ohne zu wissen, was mir dort begegnen wird, (Apg 16,6; Apg 19,21) 23 außer dass der Heilige Geist von Stadt zu Stadt Zeugnis gibt und sagt, dass Fesseln und Bedrängnisse auf mich warten. (Apg 9,16; Apg 21,4; Apg 21,11)

Apg 9,16Apg 21,4Apg 21,11

24 Aber auf das alles nehme ich keine Rücksicht; mein Leben ist mir auch selbst nicht teuer, wenn es gilt, meinen Lauf mit Freuden zu vollenden und den Dienst, den ich von dem Herrn Jesus empfangen habe, nämlich das Evangelium der Gnade Gottes zu bezeugen. (Apg 21,13; Röm 8,35; 2Kor 4,16; Eph 3,8; Phil 2,17; 2Tim 4,7)

25 Und nun siehe, ich weiß, dass ihr mein Angesicht nicht mehr sehen werdet, ihr alle, bei denen ich umhergezogen bin und das Reich Gottes verkündigt habe. (Gal 1,22; Kol 2,1) 26 Darum bezeuge ich euch am heutigen Tag, dass ich rein bin von aller Blut. (Hes 3,19; Apg 18,6) 27 Denn ich habe nichts verschwiegen, sondern habe euch den ganzen Ratschluss Gottes verkündigt. (Apg 20,20; 1Tim 2,4) 28 So habt nun acht auf euch selbst und auf die ganze Herde, in welcher der Heilige Geist euch zu Aufsehern gesetzt hat, um die Gemeinde Gottes zu hüten, die er durch sein eigenes Blut erworben hat! (5Mo 4,9; Jer 3,15; Apg 14,23; Apg 20,17; Eph 1,7; Eph 4,11; Eph 5,25; 1Tim 3,1; 1Tim 4,16; Tit 2,14; Hebr 12,15; Hebr 13,17; 1Petr 1,18; 1Petr 5,2)

29 Denn das weiß ich, dass nach meinem Abschied räuberische Wölfe zu euch hineinkommen werden, die die Herde nicht schonen; (Mt 7,15; 2Petr 2,1) 30 und aus eurer eigenen Mitte werden Männer aufstehen, die verkehrte Dinge reden, um die Jünger abzuziehen in ihre Gefolgschaft. (Gal 3,1; Gal 4,17; 1Joh 2,19) 31 Darum wacht und denkt daran, dass ich drei Jahre lang Tag und Nacht nicht aufgehört habe, jeden Einzelnen unter Tränen zu ermahnen. (Mt 26,41; Lk 21,36; 2Tim 4,5) 32 Und nun, Brüder, übergebe ich euch Gott und dem Wort seiner Gnade, das die Kraft hat, euch aufzuerbauen und ein Erbteil zu geben unter allen Geheiligten.

(2Thess 3,8) 35 In allem habe ich euch gezeigt, dass man so arbeiten und sich der Schwachen annehmen soll, eingedenk der Worte des Herrn Jesus, der selbst gesagt hat: Geben ist glückseliger als Nehmen! (Röm 15,1; Eph 4,28) 36 Und nachdem er dies gesagt hatte, kniete er nieder und betete mit ihnen allen. (Apg 21,5) 37 Da weinten alle sehr, fielen Paulus um den Hals und küssten ihn, (Ps 126,5; 1Thess 5,26) 38 am meisten betrübt über das Wort, das er gesagt hatte, dass sie sein Angesicht nicht mehr sehen würden. Und sie geleiteten ihn zum Schiff. (Apg 20,25)

Paul in Macedonia and Greece

1 After the uproar ceased, Paul sent for the disciples, and after encouraging them, he said farewell and departed for Macedonia. (Apg 19,21) 2 When he had gone through those regions and had given them much encouragement, he came to Greece. 3 There he spent three months, and when a plot was made against him by the Jews^[1] as he was about to set sail for Syria, he decided to return through Macedonia. (Apg 9,24; Apg 13,50; Apg 20,19) 4 Sopater the Berean, son of Pyrrhus, accompanied him; and of the Thessalonians, Aristarchus and Secundus; and Gaius of Derbe, and Timothy; and the Asians, Tychicus and Trophimus. (Apg 14,6; Apg 14,21; Apg 16,1; Apg 19,29; Apg 21,29; Eph 6,21; Kol 4,7; 2Tim 4,12; 2Tim 4,20; Tit 3,12)

5 These went on ahead and were waiting for us at Troas, (Apg 16,8; Apg 20,6; Apg 20,13) 6 but we sailed away from Philippi after the days of Unleavened Bread, and in five days we came to them at Troas, where we stayed for seven days. (2Mo 12,14; 2Mo 23,15; Apg 12,3)

Eutychus Raised from the Dead

7 On the first day of the week, when we were gathered together to break bread, Paul talked with them, intending to depart on the next day, and he prolonged his speech until midnight. (Mk 16,9; Joh 20,19; Apg 2,42; Apg 20,11; 1Kor 10,16; 1Kor 11,23; 1Kor 16,2; Offb 1,10)

Mk 16,9Joh 20,19Apg 2,42Apg 20,111Kor 10,161Kor 11,231Kor 16,2Offb 1,10

8 There were many lamps in the upper room where we were gathered. (Apg 1,13; Apg 9,37; Apg 9,39) 9 And a young man named Eutychus, sitting at the window, sank into a deep sleep as Paul talked still longer. And being overcome by sleep, he fell down from the third story and was taken up dead. (2Kön 1,2) 10 But Paul went down and bent over him, and taking him in his arms, said, “Do not be alarmed, for his life is in him.” (1Kön 17,21; 2Kön 4,34; Mt 9,23; Mk 5,39)

1Kön 17,212Kön 4,34Mt 9,23Mk 5,39

11 And when Paul had gone up and had broken bread and eaten, he conversed with them a long while, until daybreak, and so departed. (Apg 20,7) 12 And they took the youth away alive, and were not a little comforted. 13 But going ahead to the ship, we set sail for Assos, intending to take Paul aboard there, for so he had arranged, intending himself to go by land. 14 And when he met us at Assos, we took him on board and went to Mitylene. 15 And sailing from there we came the following day opposite Chios; the next day we touched at Samos; and^[2] the day after that we went to Miletus. 16 For Paul had decided to sail past Ephesus, so that he might not have to spend time in Asia, for he was hastening to be at Jerusalem, if possible, on the day of Pentecost. (Apg 2,1; Apg 19,21; Apg 20,6; Apg 20,22; Apg 24,11; 1Kor 16,8)

Paul Speaks to the Ephesian Elders

17 Now from Miletus he sent to Ephesus and called the elders of the church to come to him. (Apg 11,30) 18 And when they came to him, he said to them: “You yourselves know how I lived among you the whole time from the first day that I set foot in Asia, (Apg 18,19; Apg 19,1; Apg 19,10; Apg 20,31; Apg 20,34; 1Thess 1,5)

19 serving the Lord with all humility and with tears and with trials that happened to me through the plots of the Jews; (Apg 20,3; Apg 20,31; Röm 12,11; 2Kor 2,4; Eph 4,2; Phil 3,18; Kol 3,24; 1Thess 2,6)

Apg 20,3Apg 20,31Röm 12,112Kor 2,4Eph 4,2Phil 3,18Kol 3,241Thess 2,6

20 how I did not shrink from declaring to you anything that was profitable, and teaching you in public and from house to house, (Apg 20,27; Apg 20,31) 21 testifying both to Jews and to Greeks of repentance toward God and of faith in our Lord Jesus Christ.^[3] (Mk 1,15; Apg 2,38; Apg 18,5; Apg 20,24; Eph 1,15; Kol 1,4; 1Tim 3,13; Hebr 6,1)

Mk 1,15Apg 2,38Apg 18,5Apg 20,24Eph 1,15Kol 1,41Tim 3,13Hebr 6,1

22 And now, behold, I am going to Jerusalem, constrained by^[4] the Spirit, not knowing what will happen to me there, (Apg 17,16) 23 except that the Holy Spirit testifies to me in every city that imprisonment and afflictions await me.

24 But I do not account my life of any value nor as precious to myself, if only I may finish my course and the ministry that I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God.

25 And now, behold, I know that none of you among whom I have gone about proclaiming the kingdom will see my face again. (Apg 28,31; Phil 1,25) 26 Therefore I testify to you this day that I am innocent of the blood of all, (5Mo 8,19; Apg 18,6) 27 for I did not shrink from declaring to you the whole counsel of God.

Paul travels through Macedonia and Greece

1 All the trouble came to an end. Then Paul sent for the believers. After encouraging them, he said goodbye. He then left for Macedonia. 2 He travelled through that area, speaking many words of hope to the people. Finally he arrived in Greece. 3 There he stayed for three months. He was just about to sail for Syria. But some Jews were making plans against him. So he decided to go back through Macedonia. 4 Sopater, the son of Pyrrhus from Berea, went with him. Aristarchus and Secundus from Thessalonica, Gaius from Derbe, and Timothy went too. Tychicus and Trophimus from Asia Minor also went with him. 5 These men went on ahead. They waited for us at Troas. 6 But we sailed from Philippi after the Feast of Unleavened Bread. Five days later we joined the others at Troas. We stayed there for seven days.

Eutychus is raised from the dead at Troas

7 On the first day of the week we met to break bread and eat together. Paul spoke to the people. He kept on talking until midnight because he planned to leave the next day. 8 There were many lamps in the room upstairs where we were meeting. 9 A young man named Eutychus was sitting in a window. He sank into a deep sleep as Paul talked on and on. Sound asleep, Eutychus fell from the third floor. When they picked him up from the ground, he was dead. 10 Paul went down and threw himself on the young man. He put his arms around him. ‘Don’t be alarmed,’ he told them. ‘He’s alive!’ 11 Then Paul went upstairs again. He broke bread and ate with them. He kept on talking until daylight. Then he left. 12 The people took the young man home. They were greatly comforted because he was alive.

Paul says goodbye to the Ephesian elders

13 We went on ahead to the ship. We sailed for Assos. There we were going to take Paul on board. He had planned it this way because he wanted to go to Assos by land. 14 So he met us there. We took him on board and went on to Mitylene. 15 The next day we sailed from there. We arrived near Chios. The day after that we crossed over to Samos. We arrived at Miletus the next day. 16 Paul had decided to sail past Ephesus. He didn’t want to spend time in Asia Minor. He was in a hurry to get to Jerusalem. If he could, he wanted to be there by the day of Pentecost. 17 From Miletus, Paul sent for the elders of the church at Ephesus. 18 When they arrived, he spoke to them. ‘You know how I lived the whole time I was with you,’ he said. ‘From the first day I came into Asia Minor, 19 I served the Lord with tears and without pride. I served him when I was greatly tested. I was tested by the evil plans of the Jews who disagreed with me. 20 You know that nothing has kept me from preaching whatever would help you. I have taught you in public and from house to house. 21 I have told both Jews and Greeks that they must turn away from their sins to God. They must have faith in our Lord Jesus. 22 ‘Now I am going to Jerusalem. The Holy Spirit compels me. I don’t know what will happen to me there. 23 I only know that in every city the Spirit warns me. He tells me that I will face prison and suffering. 24 But my life means nothing to me. My only goal is to finish the race. I want to complete the work the Lord Jesus has given me. He wants me to tell others about the good news of God’s grace. 25 ‘I have spent time with you preaching about the kingdom. I know that none of you will ever see me again. 26 So I tell you today that I am not guilty if any of you don’t believe. 27 I haven’t let anyone keep me from telling you everything God wants you to do. 28 Keep watch over yourselves. Keep watch over all the believers. The Holy Spirit has made you leaders over them. Be shepherds of God’s church. He bought it with his own blood. 29 I know that after I leave, wild wolves will come in among you. They won’t spare any of the sheep. 30 Even men from your own people will rise up and twist the truth. They want to get the believers to follow them. 31 So be on your guard! Remember that for three years I never stopped warning you. Night and day I warned each of you with tears. 32 ‘Now I trust God to take care of you. I commit you to the message about his grace. It can build you up. Then you will share in what God plans to give all his people. 33 I haven’t longed for anyone’s silver or gold or clothing. 34 You yourselves know that I have used my own hands to meet my needs. I have also met the needs of my companions. 35 In everything I did, I showed you that we must work hard and help the weak. We must remember the words of the Lord Jesus. He said, “It is more blessed to give than to receive.” ’ 36 Paul finished speaking. Then he got down on his knees with all of them and prayed. 37 They all wept as they hugged and kissed him. 38 Paul had said that they would never see him again. That’s what hurt them the most. Then they went with him to the ship.
