Acts 28 (WEBP)

[1] When we had escaped, then they learned that the island was called Malta.
[2] The natives showed us uncommon kindness; for they kindled a fire and received us all, because of the present rain and because of the cold.
[3] But when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks and laid them on the fire, a viper came out because of the heat and fastened on his hand.
[4] When the natives saw the creature hanging from his hand, they said to one another, “No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, though he has escaped from the sea, yet Justice has not allowed to live.”
[5] However he shook off the creature into the fire, and wasn’t harmed.
[6] But they expected that he would have swollen or fallen down dead suddenly, but when they watched for a long time and saw nothing bad happen to him, they changed their minds and said that he was a god.
[7] Now in the neighborhood of that place were lands belonging to the chief man of the island, named Publius, who received us and courteously entertained us for three days.
[8] The father of Publius lay sick of fever and dysentery. Paul entered in to him, prayed, and laying his hands on him, healed him.
[9] Then when this was done, the rest also who had diseases in the island came and were cured.
[10] They also honored us with many honors; and when we sailed, they put on board the things that we needed.
[11] After three months, we set sail in a ship of Alexandria which had wintered in the island, whose figurehead was “The Twin Brothers.”
[12] Touching at Syracuse, we stayed there three days.
[13] From there we circled around and arrived at Rhegium. After one day, a south wind sprang up, and on the second day we came to Puteoli,
[14] where we found brothers, and were entreated to stay with them for seven days. So we came to Rome.
[15] From there the brothers, when they heard of us, came to meet us as far as The Market of Appius and The Three Taverns. When Paul saw them, he thanked God and took courage.
[16] When we entered into Rome, the centurion delivered the prisoners to the captain of the guard, but Paul was allowed to stay by himself with the soldier who guarded him.
[17] After three days Paul called together those who were the leaders of the Jews. When they had come together, he said to them, “I, brothers, though I had done nothing against the people or the customs of our fathers, still was delivered prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans,
[18] who, when they had examined me, desired to set me free, because there was no cause of death in me.
[19] But when the Jews spoke against it, I was constrained to appeal to Caesar, not that I had anything about which to accuse my nation.
[20] For this cause therefore I asked to see you and to speak with you. For because of the hope of Israel I am bound with this chain.”
[21] They said to him, “We neither received letters from Judea concerning you, nor did any of the brothers come here and report or speak any evil of you.
[22] But we desire to hear from you what you think. For, as concerning this sect, it is known to us that everywhere it is spoken against.”
[23] When they had appointed him a day, many people came to him at his lodging. He explained to them, testifying about God’s Kingdom, and persuading them concerning Jesus, both from the law of Moses and from the prophets, from morning until evening.
[24] Some believed the things which were spoken, and some disbelieved.
[25] When they didn’t agree among themselves, they departed after Paul had spoken one message: “The Holy Spirit spoke rightly through Isaiah the prophet to our fathers,
[26] saying, ‘Go to this people and say, in hearing, you will hear, but will in no way understand. In seeing, you will see, but will in no way perceive.
[27] For this people’s heart has grown callous. Their ears are dull of hearing. Their eyes they have closed. Lest they should see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their heart, and would turn again, then I would heal them.’
[28] “Be it known therefore to you that the salvation of God is sent to the nations, and they will listen.”
[29] When he had said these words, the Jews departed, having a great dispute among themselves.
[30] Paul stayed two whole years in his own rented house and received all who were coming to him,
[31] preaching God’s Kingdom and teaching the things concerning the Lord Jesus Christ with all boldness, without hindrance.

Acts 28:1 NU reads “we”
Acts 28:14 The word for “brothers” here and where context allows may also be correctly translated “brothers and sisters” or “siblings.”
Acts 28:27
Acts 28:29 NU omits verse 29.

Acts 28 (KJVS)

[1] And when they were escaped, () then they knew () that the island was called () Melita.
[2] And the barbarous people shewed () us no little () kindness: for they kindled () a fire, and received () us every one, because of the present () rain, and because of the cold.
[3] And when Paul had gathered () a bundle of sticks, and laid () them on the fire, there came () a viper out of the heat, and fastened on () his hand.
[4] And when the barbarians saw () the venomous beast hang () on his hand, they said () among themselves, No doubt this man is () a murderer, whom, though he hath escaped () the sea, yet vengeance suffereth () not to live. ()
[5] And he shook off () the beast into the fire, and felt () no harm.
[6] Howbeit they looked () when he should () have swollen, () or fallen down () dead suddenly: but after they had looked () a great while, and saw () no harm come () to him, they changed their minds, () and said () that he was () a god.
[7] In the same quarters were () possessions of the chief man of the island, whose name was Publius; who received () us, and lodged us () three days courteously.
[8] And it came to pass, () that the father of Publius lay () sick of () a fever and of a bloody flux: to whom Paul entered in, () and prayed, () and laid his hands on () him, and healed () him.
[9] So when this was done, () others also, which had () diseases in the island, came, () and were healed: ()
[10] who also honoured us with many honours; () and when we departed, () they laded () us with such things as were necessary.
[11] And after three months we departed () in a ship of Alexandria, which had wintered () in the isle, whose sign was Castor and Pollux.
[12] And landing () at Syracuse, we tarried () there three days.
[13] And from thence we fetched a compass, () and came () to Rhegium: and after one day the south wind blew, () and we came () the next day to Puteoli:
[14] where we found () brethren, and were desired () to tarry () with them seven days: and so we went () toward Rome.
[15] And from thence, when the brethren heard () of us, they came () to meet us as far as Appii forum, and The three taverns: whom when Paul saw, () he thanked () God, and took () courage.
[16] And when we came () to Rome, the centurion delivered () the prisoners to the captain of the guard: but Paul was suffered () to dwell () by himself with a soldier that kept () him.
[17] And it came to pass, () that after three days Paul called the chief () of the Jews together: () and when they were come together, () he said () unto them, Men and brethren, though I have committed () nothing against the people, or customs of our fathers, yet was I delivered () prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans.
[18] Who, when they had examined () me, would () have let me go, () because there was () no cause of death in me.
[19] But when the Jews spake against () it, I was constrained () to appeal () unto Cæsar; not that I had () ought to accuse my nation of. ()
[20] For this cause therefore have I called () for you, to see () you, and to speak with () you: because that for the hope of Israel I am bound with () this chain.
[21] And they said () unto him, We neither received () letters out of Judæa concerning thee, neither any of the brethren that came () shewed () or spake () any harm of thee.
[22] But we desire () to hear () of thee what thou thinkest: () for as concerning this sect, we know () that every where it is spoken against. ()
[23] And when they had appointed () him a day, there came () many to him into his lodging; to whom he expounded () and testified () the kingdom of God, persuading () them concerning Jesus, both out of the law of Moses, and out of the prophets, from morning till evening.
[24] And some believed () the things which were spoken, () and some believed not. ()
[25] And when they agreed not () among themselves, they departed, () after that Paul had spoken () one word, Well spake () the Holy Ghost by Esaias the prophet unto our fathers,
[26] saying, () Go () unto this people, and say, () Hearing ye shall hear, () and shall not understand; () And seeing () ye shall see, () and not perceive: ()
[27] For the heart of this people is waxed gross, () And their ears are dull of hearing, () And their eyes have they closed; () Lest they should see () with their eyes, And hear () with their ears, And understand () with their heart, And should be converted, () And I should heal () them.
[28] Be it () known therefore unto you, that the salvation of God is sent () unto the Gentiles, and that they will hear () it.
[29] And when he had said () these words, the Jews departed, () and had () great reasoning among themselves.
[30] And Paul dwelt () two whole years in his own hired house, and received () all that came in () unto him,
[31] preaching () the kingdom of God, and teaching () those things which concern the Lord Jesus Christ, with all confidence, no man forbidding him.
