18 When they came to him, he said, “You know how I lived the whole time I was with you, from the first day I arrived in the province of Asia.
19 I served the Lord with great humility and with tears, especially in the trials that came upon me through the plots of the Jews.

21 testifying to Jews and Greeks alike about repentance to God and faith in our Lord Jesus Christ.
