Acts 28:7-14

7Near the shore where we landed was an estate belonging to Publius, the chief official of the island. He welcomed us and treated us kindly for three days.

8As it happened, Publius’s father was ill with fever and dysentery. Paul went in and prayed for him, and laying his hands on him, he healed him.

9Then all the other sick people on the island came and were healed.

10As a result we were showered with honors, and when the time came to sail, people supplied us with everything we would need for the trip.

11It was three months after the shipwreck that we set sail on another ship that had wintered at the island—an Alexandrian ship with the twin gods as its figurehead.

12Our first stop was Syracuse, where we stayed three days.

13From there we sailed across to Rhegium. A day later a south wind began blowing, so the following day we sailed up the coast to Puteoli.

14There we found some believers, who invited us to spend a week with them. And so we came to Rome.
