Acts 28

1 And having been saved then (we found out *N+KO) that Malta the island is called;

2 (And *N+kO) the natives were showing not [just] the ordinary kindness to us; (Having kindled *N+kO) for a fire they received all of us because of the rain which already coming on and because of the cold.

3 When having gathered now Paul of sticks (some *no) quantity and having laid [them] on the fire a viper (out from *N+kO) the heat having come fastened on the hand of him.

4 When then saw the natives hanging the beast from the hand of him, to one another they were saying: By all means a murderer is man this, whom having been saved from the sea Justice to live not has permitted.

5 The [one] indeed then (having shaken off *NK+o) the creature into the fire he suffered no [thing] injurious.

6 But they were expecting him to be about to become inflamed or to fall down suddenly dead; A while great however when they are waiting and seeing nothing amiss to him happening (having changed their opinion *N+kO) they were declaringing him to be a god.

7 In now the [parts] around the place that [one] were lands [belonging] to the chief of the island, named Publius, who having received us three days hospitably entertained [us].

8 It came to pass then the father of Publius with fevers and (with dysentery *N+kO) oppressed [was] lying; to whom Paul having entered and having prayed, having laid the hands on him, healed him.

9 Of this (then *N+kO) having taken place also the rest in the island having infirmities were coming and were healed;

10 who also with many honors honored us, and on setting sail they laid on [us] the [things] for (the needs. *N+kO)

11 After then three months (we set out *NK+o) in a ship having wintered in the island, Alexandrian, with a figurehead of [the] Dioscuri;

12 And having put in at Syracuse we stayed days three,

13 from where (having taken off *N+KO) we arrived at Rhegium And after one day when was comong on a south wind on the second day we came to Puteoli;

14 where having found [some] brothers we were entreated (with *N+kO) them to remain days seven; And so to Rome we came.

15 And from there And from there the brothers having heard the [things] concerning us (they came out *N+kO) to meet us as far as of Appius [the] market and [the] Three Taverns, whom having seen Paul having given thanks to God took courage.

16 When now (we came *N+kO) to Rome, (the centurion delivered prisoners to the commanders *K) was allowed (Now *k) Paul to stay by himself with who is guarding him soldier.

17 It came to pass then after days three calling together (he *N+KO) those being of the Jews leaders; When they were assembling then they he was saying to them; I myself, men brothers no [thing] against having done the people or against the customs of our fathers, a prisoner from Jerusalem was delivered into the hands of the Romans,

18 who having examined me they were wanting to let [me] go on account of not one cause of death existing in me myself;

19 When were objecting however the Jews I was compelled to appeal to Caesar not as if the nation of mine having anything (to lay against. *N+kO)

20 For this therefore cause I have called you to see and to speak to [you]; because of for the hope of Israel chain this I have around [me].

21 And to him they said; We ourselves neither letters concerning you received from Judea, nor having arrived any of the brothers reported or he said anything concerning you evil.

22 We deem it worthy however from you to hear what you think; concerning truly for sect this known to us it is that everywhere it is spoken against.

23 Having appointed then to him a day (came *N+kO) to him to the lodging many, to whom he was expounding fully testifying to the kingdom of God, persuading then them concerning Jesus from both the law of Moses and the Prophets from morning to evening.

24 And some indeed were persuaded by the [things] he is speaking, some however were disbelieving.

25 Discordant then being with one another they were leaving when was speaking Paul declaration one that Rightly the Spirit Holy spoke through Isaiah the prophet to the fathers (of you *N+KO)

26 (he is saying: *N+kO) do go to people this and do say; In hearing you will hear and certainly not may understand, and in looking you will look and certainly not may perceive;

27 Has grown dull for the heart of the people this, and with the ears barely they hear and the eyes of them they have closed; otherwise otherwise they may see with the eyes and with the ears they may hear and with the heart they may understand and may turn and (I will heal *N+kO) them.’

28 Known therefore it should be to you that to the Gentiles has been sent (this *no) salvation of God, they themselves then will listen!

29 (and these things of him saying they went away the Jews much having in themselves discussion. *K)

30 (He abided *N+kO) then (Paul *k) two years whole in his own rented house and was welcoming all those coming unto him

31 proclaiming the kingdom of God and teaching the [things] concerning the Lord Jesus Christ with all boldness unhinderedly.
