1 And|strong="G2532" when|strong="G2532" we|strong="G3754" were|strong="G3588" escaped|strong="G1295", then|strong="G2532" we|strong="G3754" knew|strong="G1921" that|strong="G3754" the|strong="G2532" island|strong="G3520" was|strong="G3588" called|strong="G2564" Melita|strong="G3194".
2 And|strong="G2532" the|strong="G2532" barbarians shewed|strong="G3588" us|strong="G2249" no|strong="G3756" common kindness|strong="G5363": for|strong="G1063" they|strong="G2532" kindled a|strong="G2532" fire|strong="G4443", and|strong="G2532" received|strong="G4355" us|strong="G2249" all|strong="G3956", because|strong="G1223" of|strong="G1223" the|strong="G2532" present|strong="G2186" rain|strong="G5205", and|strong="G2532" because|strong="G1223" of|strong="G1223" the|strong="G2532" cold|strong="G5592".
3 But|strong="G1161" when|strong="G1161" Paul|strong="G3972" had|strong="G2532" gathered|strong="G4962" a|strong="G2532" bundle|strong="G4128" of|strong="G2532" sticks|strong="G5434", and|strong="G2532" laid|strong="G2007" them|strong="G3588" on|strong="G1909" the|strong="G2532" fire|strong="G4443", a|strong="G2532" viper|strong="G2191" came|strong="G1831" out|strong="G1831" by|strong="G1909" reason of|strong="G2532" the|strong="G2532" heat|strong="G2329", and|strong="G2532" fastened|strong="G2510" on|strong="G1909" his|strong="G2007" hand|strong="G5495".
4 And|strong="G1161" when|strong="G1161" the|strong="G1537" barbarians saw|strong="G3708" the|strong="G1537" beast|strong="G2342" hanging|strong="G2910" from|strong="G1537" his|strong="G3708" hand|strong="G5495", they|strong="G1161" said|strong="G3004" one|strong="G3739" to|strong="G4314" another|strong="G3739", No|strong="G3756" doubt|strong="G3843" this|strong="G3778" man|strong="G3778" is|strong="G1510" a|strong="G5613" murderer|strong="G5406", whom|strong="G3739", though|strong="G5613" he|strong="G1161" hath|strong="G3588" escaped|strong="G1295" from|strong="G1537" the|strong="G1537" sea|strong="G2281", yet|strong="G1161" Justice|strong="G1349" hath|strong="G3588" not|strong="G3756" suffered|strong="G1439" to|strong="G4314" live|strong="G2198".
5 Howbeit he|strong="G3588" shook off the|strong="G1519" beast|strong="G2342" into|strong="G1519" the|strong="G1519" fire|strong="G4442", and|strong="G3767" took|strong="G3767" no|strong="G3762" harm|strong="G2556".
6 But|strong="G1161" they|strong="G2532" expected that|strong="G3588" he|strong="G2532" would|strong="G3195" have|strong="G2532" swollen|strong="G4092", or|strong="G2228" fallen|strong="G2667" down|strong="G2667" dead|strong="G3498" suddenly: but|strong="G1161" when|strong="G1161" they|strong="G2532" were|strong="G1510" long|strong="G4183" in|strong="G1519" expectation|strong="G4328", and|strong="G2532" beheld|strong="G2334" nothing|strong="G3367" amiss came|strong="G1096" to|strong="G1519" him|strong="G3588", they|strong="G2532" changed|strong="G3328" their|strong="G2532" minds|strong="G3328", and|strong="G2532" said|strong="G3004" that|strong="G3588" he|strong="G2532" was|strong="G1510" a|strong="G1096" god|strong="G2316".
7 Now|strong="G1161" in|strong="G1722" the|strong="G1722" neighbourhood of|strong="G4012" that|strong="G3739" place|strong="G5117" were|strong="G3588" lands|strong="G5564" belonging|strong="G5225" to|strong="G1722" the|strong="G1722" chief|strong="G4413" man|strong="G4413" of|strong="G4012" the|strong="G1722" island|strong="G3520", named|strong="G3686" Publius|strong="G4196"; who|strong="G3739" received us|strong="G3579", and|strong="G1161" entertained|strong="G3579" us|strong="G3579" three|strong="G5140" days|strong="G2250" courteously|strong="G5390".
8 And|strong="G2532" it|strong="G2532" was|strong="G1096" so|strong="G2532", that|strong="G3739" the|strong="G2532" father|strong="G3962" of|strong="G2532" Publius|strong="G4196" lay|strong="G2007" sick|strong="G2621" of|strong="G2532" fever|strong="G4446" and|strong="G2532" dysentery|strong="G1420": unto|strong="G4314" whom|strong="G3739" Paul|strong="G3972" entered|strong="G1525" in|strong="G1525", and|strong="G2532" prayed|strong="G4336", and|strong="G2532" laying|strong="G2007" his|strong="G2007" hands|strong="G5495" on|strong="G5495" him|strong="G3588" healed|strong="G2390" him|strong="G3588".
9 And|strong="G2532" when|strong="G1161" this|strong="G3778" was|strong="G1096" done|strong="G1096", the|strong="G1722" rest|strong="G3062" also|strong="G2532" which|strong="G3588" had|strong="G2192" diseases in|strong="G1722" the|strong="G1722" island|strong="G3520" came|strong="G4334", and|strong="G2532" were|strong="G3588" cured|strong="G2323":
10 who|strong="G3739" also|strong="G2532" honoured|strong="G5091" us|strong="G2249" with|strong="G4314" many|strong="G4183" honours|strong="G5092"; and|strong="G2532" when|strong="G2532" we|strong="G2249" sailed|strong="G2249", they|strong="G2532" put|strong="G2007" on|strong="G2007" board such|strong="G3588" things|strong="G3588" as|strong="G2532" we|strong="G2249" needed|strong="G5532".
11 And|strong="G1161" after|strong="G3326" three|strong="G5140" months|strong="G3376" we|strong="G1161" set sail in|strong="G1722" a|strong="G1722" ship|strong="G4143" of|strong="G1722" Alexandria, which|strong="G3588" had|strong="G3588" wintered|strong="G3914" in|strong="G1722" the|strong="G1722" island|strong="G3520", whose|strong="G3588" sign|strong="G3902" was|strong="G3588" The|strong="G1722" Twin|strong="G1359" Brothers|strong="G1359".
12 And|strong="G2532" touching at|strong="G1519" Syracuse|strong="G4946", we|strong="G2532" tarried|strong="G1961" there|strong="G2532" three|strong="G5140" days|strong="G2250".
13 And|strong="G2532" from|strong="G2064" thence|strong="G3606" we|strong="G2532" made|strong="G1519" a|strong="G2532" circuit, and|strong="G2532" arrived|strong="G2064" at|strong="G1519" Rhegium|strong="G4484": and|strong="G2532" after|strong="G3326" one|strong="G1520" day|strong="G2250" a|strong="G2532" south|strong="G3558" wind|strong="G3558" sprang|strong="G1920" up|strong="G1519", and|strong="G2532" on|strong="G1519" the|strong="G2532" second|strong="G1206" day|strong="G2250" we|strong="G2532" came|strong="G2064" to|strong="G1519" Puteoli|strong="G4223":
14 where|strong="G3757" we|strong="G2532" found|strong="G2147" brethren|strong="G3588", and|strong="G2532" were|strong="G3588" entreated to|strong="G1519" tarry|strong="G1961" with|strong="G3844" them|strong="G3588" seven|strong="G2033" days|strong="G2250": and|strong="G2532" so|strong="G3779" we|strong="G2532" came|strong="G2064" to|strong="G1519" Rome|strong="G4516".
15 And|strong="G2532" from|strong="G2064" thence|strong="G2547" the|strong="G2532" brethren|strong="G3588", when|strong="G2532" they|strong="G2532" heard of|strong="G4012" us|strong="G1519", came|strong="G2064" to|strong="G1519" meet|strong="G3588" us|strong="G1519" as|strong="G1519" far|strong="G3588" as|strong="G1519" The|strong="G2532" Market|strong="G5410" of|strong="G4012" Appius, and|strong="G2532" The|strong="G2532" Three|strong="G5140" Taverns|strong="G4999": whom|strong="G3739" when|strong="G2532" Paul|strong="G3972" saw|strong="G3708", he|strong="G2532" thanked|strong="G2168" God|strong="G2316", and|strong="G2532" took|strong="G2983" courage|strong="G2294".
16 And|strong="G1161" when|strong="G3753" we|strong="G1161" entered|strong="G1525" into|strong="G1519" Rome|strong="G4516", Paul|strong="G3972" was|strong="G3588" suffered|strong="G2010" to|strong="G1519" abide|strong="G3306" by|strong="G2596" himself|strong="G1438" with|strong="G4862" the|strong="G1519" soldier|strong="G4757" that|strong="G3588" guarded|strong="G5442" him|strong="G3588".
17 And|strong="G1161" it|strong="G1161" came|strong="G1096" to|strong="G1519" pass|strong="G1096", that|strong="G3588" after|strong="G3326" three|strong="G5140" days|strong="G2250" he|strong="G1161" called|strong="G3004" together|strong="G4905" those|strong="G3588" that|strong="G3588" were|strong="G1510" the|strong="G1519" chief|strong="G4413" of|strong="G1537" the|strong="G1519" Jews|strong="G2453": and|strong="G1161" when|strong="G1161" they|strong="G1161" were|strong="G1510" come|strong="G1096" together|strong="G4905", he|strong="G1161" said|strong="G3004" unto|strong="G4314" them|strong="G3588", I|strong="G1473", brethren|strong="G3588", though|strong="G1161" I|strong="G1473" had|strong="G1510" done|strong="G4160" nothing|strong="G3762" against|strong="G4314" the|strong="G1519" people|strong="G2992", or|strong="G2228" the|strong="G1519" customs|strong="G1485" of|strong="G1537" our|strong="G3326" fathers|strong="G3971", yet|strong="G1161" was|strong="G1510" delivered|strong="G3860" prisoner|strong="G1198" from|strong="G1537" Jerusalem|strong="G2414" into|strong="G1519" the|strong="G1519" hands|strong="G5495" of|strong="G1537" the|strong="G1519" Romans|strong="G4514":
18 who|strong="G3588", when|strong="G1722" they|strong="G3588" had|strong="G3588" examined me|strong="G1473", desired to|strong="G1722" set me|strong="G1473" at|strong="G1722" liberty, because|strong="G1223" there|strong="G1722" was|strong="G3588" no|strong="G3367" cause|strong="G1223" of|strong="G1223" death|strong="G2288" in|strong="G1722" me|strong="G1473".
19 But|strong="G1161" when|strong="G1161" the|strong="G1161" Jews|strong="G2453" spake|strong="G2453" against|strong="G2723" it|strong="G1161", I|strong="G1473" was|strong="G3588" constrained to|strong="G3756" appeal|strong="G1941" unto|strong="G5613" Caesar|strong="G2541"; not|strong="G3756" that|strong="G3588" I|strong="G1473" had|strong="G2192" aught to|strong="G3756" accuse|strong="G2723" my|strong="G1473" nation|strong="G1484" of|strong="G5100".
20 For|strong="G1063" this|strong="G3778" cause|strong="G1223" therefore|strong="G3767" did|strong="G2532" I|strong="G2532" entreat|strong="G3870" you|strong="G5210" to|strong="G2532" see|strong="G3708" and|strong="G2532" to|strong="G2532" speak|strong="G4354" with|strong="G1223" me: for|strong="G1063" because|strong="G1223" of|strong="G1223" the|strong="G2532" hope|strong="G1680" of|strong="G1223" Israel|strong="G2474" I|strong="G2532" am|strong="G2532" bound with|strong="G1223" this|strong="G3778" chain.
21 And|strong="G1161" they|strong="G1161" said|strong="G3004" unto|strong="G4314" him|strong="G3588", We|strong="G2249" neither|strong="G3777" received|strong="G1209" letters|strong="G1121" from|strong="G3588" Judaea|strong="G2449" concerning|strong="G4012" thee, nor|strong="G3777" did|strong="G5100" any|strong="G5100" of|strong="G4012" the|strong="G1161" brethren|strong="G3588" come|strong="G3854" hither and|strong="G1161" report or|strong="G2228" speak|strong="G2980" any|strong="G5100" harm|strong="G4190" of|strong="G4012" thee.
22 But|strong="G1161" we|strong="G2249" desire to|strong="G1161" hear of|strong="G4012" thee what|strong="G3739" thou|strong="G4771" thinkest|strong="G5426": for|strong="G1063" as|strong="G1161" concerning|strong="G4012" this|strong="G3778" sect, it|strong="G3754" is|strong="G1510" known|strong="G1110" to|strong="G1161" us|strong="G2249" that|strong="G3754" everywhere|strong="G3837" it|strong="G3754" is|strong="G1510" spoken against|strong="G4012".
23 And|strong="G2532" when|strong="G1161" they|strong="G2532" had|strong="G2424" appointed|strong="G5021" him|strong="G3588" a|strong="G2532" day|strong="G2250", they|strong="G2532" came|strong="G2064" to|strong="G1519" him|strong="G3588" into|strong="G1519" his|strong="G1438" lodging|strong="G3578" in|strong="G1519" great|strong="G4183" number; to|strong="G1519" whom|strong="G3739" he|strong="G2532" expounded|strong="G1620" the matter, testifying|strong="G1263" the|strong="G2532" kingdom of|strong="G4012" God|strong="G2316", and|strong="G2532" persuading|strong="G3982" them|strong="G3588" concerning|strong="G4012" Jesus|strong="G2424", both|strong="G2532" from|strong="G2064" the|strong="G2532" law|strong="G3551" of|strong="G4012" Moses|strong="G3475" and|strong="G2532" from|strong="G2064" the|strong="G2532" prophets|strong="G4396", from|strong="G2064" morning|strong="G4404" till|strong="G2193" evening|strong="G2073".
24 And|strong="G2532" some|strong="G3588" believed|strong="G3982" the|strong="G2532" things|strong="G3588" which|strong="G3588" were|strong="G3588" spoken|strong="G3004", and|strong="G2532" some|strong="G3588" disbelieved.
25 And|strong="G1161" when|strong="G1161" they|strong="G1161" agreed not|strong="G1510" among|strong="G4314" themselves|strong="G1510", they|strong="G1161" departed, after|strong="G1161" that|strong="G3754" Paul|strong="G3972" had|strong="G3972" spoken|strong="G2980" one|strong="G1520" word|strong="G4487", Well|strong="G2573" spake|strong="G2980" the|strong="G1161" Holy|strong="G4151" Ghost|strong="G4151" by|strong="G1223" Isaiah|strong="G2268" the|strong="G1161" prophet|strong="G4396" unto|strong="G4314" your|strong="G1223" fathers|strong="G3962",
26 saying|strong="G3004", Go|strong="G4198" thou|strong="G3004" unto|strong="G4314" this|strong="G3778" people|strong="G2992", and|strong="G2532" say|strong="G3004", By|strong="G4314" hearing ye|strong="G2532" shall|strong="G2532" hear, and|strong="G2532" shall|strong="G2532" in|strong="G2532" no|strong="G3756" wise|strong="G3361" understand|strong="G4920"; And|strong="G2532" seeing|strong="G3708" ye|strong="G2532" shall|strong="G2532" see|strong="G3708", and|strong="G2532" shall|strong="G2532" in|strong="G2532" no|strong="G3756" wise|strong="G3361" perceive|strong="G3708":
27 For|strong="G1063" this|strong="G3778" people|strong="G2992"’s heart|strong="G2588" is|strong="G3588" waxed|strong="G2532" gross|strong="G3975", And|strong="G2532" their|strong="G1438" ears|strong="G3775" are|strong="G3588" dull|strong="G3975" of|strong="G2532" hearing|strong="G3775", And|strong="G2532" their|strong="G1438" eyes|strong="G3788" they|strong="G2532" have|strong="G2532" closed|strong="G2576"; Lest|strong="G3379" haply|strong="G3379" they|strong="G2532" should|strong="G3588" perceive|strong="G3708" with|strong="G2532" their|strong="G1438" eyes|strong="G3788", And|strong="G2532" hear with|strong="G2532" their|strong="G1438" ears|strong="G3775", And|strong="G2532" understand|strong="G4920" with|strong="G2532" their|strong="G1438" heart|strong="G2588", And|strong="G2532" should|strong="G3588" turn|strong="G1994" again|strong="G1994", And|strong="G2532" I|strong="G2532" should|strong="G3588" heal|strong="G2390" them|strong="G3588".
28 Be|strong="G1510" it|strong="G2532" known|strong="G1110" therefore|strong="G3767" unto|strong="G3767" you|strong="G4771", that|strong="G3754" this|strong="G3778" salvation|strong="G4992" of|strong="G2316" God|strong="G2316" is|strong="G1510" sent|strong="G2316" unto|strong="G3767" the|strong="G2532" Gentiles|strong="G1484": they|strong="G2532" will|strong="G2316" also|strong="G2532" hear.
30 And|strong="G2532" he|strong="G2532" abode two|strong="G1333" whole|strong="G3650" years|strong="G1333" in|strong="G1722" his|strong="G3956" own|strong="G2398" hired|strong="G2398" dwelling, and|strong="G2532" received all|strong="G3956" that|strong="G3588" went|strong="G2532" in|strong="G1722" unto|strong="G4314" him|strong="G3588",
31 preaching|strong="G2784" the|strong="G2532" kingdom of|strong="G4012" God|strong="G2316", and|strong="G2532" teaching|strong="G1321" the|strong="G2532" things|strong="G3956" concerning|strong="G4012" the|strong="G2532" Lord|strong="G2962" Jesus|strong="G2424" Christ|strong="G5547" with|strong="G3326" all|strong="G3956" boldness|strong="G3954", none|strong="G3956" forbidding him|strong="G3588".
