Acts 28:7-14

7A man named Publius, who was the governor of the island, had property around the area. He welcomed us and treated us kindly, and for three days we were his guests.

8His father happened to be sick in bed. He was suffering from fever and dysentery. Paul went to him, prayed, placed his hands on him, and made him well.

9After that had happened, other sick people on the island went to Paul and were made well.

10They showed respect for us in many ways, and when we were going to set sail, they put whatever we needed on board.

11After three months we sailed on an Alexandrian ship that had spent the winter at the island. The ship had the gods Castor and Pollux carved on its front.

12We stopped at the city of Syracuse and stayed there for three days.

13We sailed from Syracuse and arrived at the city of Rhegium. The next day a south wind began to blow, and two days later we arrived at the city of Puteoli.

14In Puteoli we discovered some believers who begged us to spend a week with them.
