1AndG2532 whenG2532 weG2532 were escaped, thenG2532 weG2532 knewG1921 thatG3754 theG3588 islandG3520 was calledG2564 Melita. 2AndG2532 theG3956 barbariansG915 shewed usG3930 noG3756 common kindnessG5363: forG1063 theyG2532 kindledG681 a fireG4443, andG2532 receivedG4355 usG3930 allG3956, becauseG1223 ofG1223 theG3956 present rainG5205, andG2532 becauseG1223 ofG1223 theG3956 coldG5592. 3ButG1161 whenG2532 PaulG3972 had gatheredG4962 a bundleG4128 ofG575 sticksG5434, andG2532 laidG2007 themG846 onG1909 theG3588 fireG4443, a viperG2191 cameG1831 outG1831 byG575 reasonG846 ofG575 theG3588 heatG2329, andG2532 fastenedG2510 onG1909 hisG846 handG5495. 4AndG1161 whenG5613 theG3588 barbariansG915 sawG3708 theG3588 beastG2342 hangingG2910 fromG1537 hisG846 handG5495, theyG846 saidG3004 oneG240 toG4314 anotherG240, NoG3756 doubtG3843 thisG3778 manG444 isG1510 a murdererG5406, whomG3739, thoughG5613 heG846 hath escaped fromG1537 theG3588 seaG2281, yetG1161 JusticeG1349 hath notG3756 suffered toG4314 liveG2198. 5Howbeit heG3767 shookG660 offG660 theG3588 beastG2342 intoG1519 theG3588 fireG4442, andG4442 took noG3762 harmG2556. 6ButG1161 theyG846 expected thatG3004 heG2532 wouldG3195 haveG1510 swollen, orG2228 fallenG2667 downG2667 deadG3498 suddenlyG869: butG1161 whenG2532 theyG846 wereG1510 longG4183 inG1519 expectationG4328, andG2532 beheld nothingG3367 amiss cameG1096 toG1519 himG846, theyG846 changedG3328 theirG846 mindsG3328, andG2532 saidG3004 thatG3004 heG2532 wasG1510 a godG2316. 7NowG1161 inG1722 theG3588 neighbourhood ofG2250 thatG3739 placeG5117 were landsG5564 belongingG5225 toG1722 theG3588 chief manG4413 ofG2250 theG3588 islandG3520, namedG3686 PubliusG4196; whoG3739 receivedG324 usG1722, andG1161 entertainedG3579 usG1722 threeG5140 daysG2250 courteouslyG5390. 8AndG2532 itG846 was soG2532, thatG3739 theG3588 fatherG3962 ofG3962 PubliusG4196 layG2007 sickG2621 ofG3962 feverG4446 andG2532 dysenteryG1420: unto whomG3739 PaulG3972 enteredG1525 inG2532, andG2532 prayedG4336, andG2532 layingG2007 hisG846 handsG5495 onG5495 himG846 healedG2390 himG846. 9AndG2532 whenG2532 thisG3778 was doneG1096, theG3588 restG3062 alsoG2532 whichG3588 had diseasesG769 inG1722 theG3588 islandG3520 cameG4334, andG2532 were curedG2323: 10whoG3739 alsoG2532 honoured us withG4314 manyG4183 honours; andG2532 whenG2532 weG2249 sailed, theyG3739 putG2007 onG321 board suchG3739 thingsG4183 asG2532 weG2249 neededG5532. 11AndG1161 afterG3326 threeG5140 monthsG3376 weG1161 setG321 sailG321 inG1722 a shipG4143 ofG1722 Alexandria, whichG3588 had winteredG3914 inG1722 theG3588 islandG3520, whose sign was TheG3588 TwinG1359 BrothersG1359. 12AndG2532 touching at SyracuseG4946, weG2532 tarried there threeG5140 daysG2250. 13AndG2532 fromG2064 thence weG2532 made a circuit, andG2532 arrivedG2064 at RhegiumG4484: andG2532 afterG3326 oneG1520 dayG2250 a southG3558 windG3558 sprangG1920 upG1519, andG2532 onG1519 theG2532 secondG1206 dayG2250 weG2532 cameG2064 toG1519 PuteoliG4223: 14whereG3757 weG2532 foundG2147 brethrenG80, andG2532 were entreated toG1519 tarry withG3844 themG846 sevenG2033 daysG2250: andG2532 soG2532 weG2532 cameG2064 toG1519 RomeG4516. 15AndG2532 fromG2064 thence theG3588 brethrenG80, whenG2532 theyG3739 heardG191 ofG2316 usG1519, cameG2064 toG1519 meetG529 usG1519 asG1519 farG891 asG1519 TheG3588 MarketG5410 ofG2316 AppiusG675, andG2532 TheG3588 ThreeG5140 TavernsG4999: whomG3739 whenG2532 PaulG3972 sawG3708, heG2532 thankedG2168 GodG2316, andG2532 tookG2983 courageG2294. 16AndG1161 whenG3753 weG1161 enteredG1525 intoG1519 RomeG4516, PaulG3972 was suffered toG1519 abideG3306 byG2596 himselfG1438 withG4862 theG3588 soldierG4757 thatG846 guardedG5442 himG846. 17AndG1161 itG846 cameG1096 toG1519 passG1096, thatG3004 afterG3326 threeG5140 daysG2250 heG846 calledG3004 togetherG4905 thoseG3588 thatG3004 wereG1510 theG3588 chief ofG1537 theG3588 JewsG2453: andG1161 whenG1161 theyG846 wereG1510 comeG1096 togetherG4905, heG846 saidG3004 unto themG846, IG1473, brethrenG80, thoughG1161 IG1473 hadG1510 doneG4160 nothingG3762 againstG4314 theG3588 peopleG2992, orG2228 theG3588 customsG1485 ofG1537 ourG80 fathersG3971, yetG1161 wasG1510 deliveredG3860 prisonerG1198 fromG1537 JerusalemG2414 intoG1519 theG3588 handsG5495 ofG1537 theG3588 RomansG4514: 18whoG3588, whenG1722 theyG3748 had examinedG350 meG1473, desired toG1722 setG630 meG1473 at liberty, becauseG1223 thereG1722 was noG3367 causeG156 ofG1223 deathG2288 inG1722 meG1473. 19ButG1161 whenG5613 theG3588 JewsG2453 spake againstG2723 itG1161, IG1473 was constrained toG5100 appealG1941 unto CaesarG2541; notG3756 thatG5613 IG1473 had aught toG5100 accuseG2723 myG2192 nationG1484 ofG5100. 20ForG1063 thisG3778 causeG156 thereforeG3767 didG3708 IG2532 entreatG3870 youG5210 toG2532 seeG3708 andG2532 toG2532 speakG4354 withG1223 meG3708: forG1063 becauseG1223 ofG1223 theG3588 hopeG1680 ofG1223 IsraelG2474 IG2532 amG2532 bound withG1223 thisG3778 chainG254. 21AndG1161 theyG846 saidG3004 unto himG846, WeG2249 neitherG3777 receivedG1209 lettersG1121 fromG575 Judaea concerningG4012 thee, norG3777 didG3777 anyG5100 ofG575 theG3588 brethrenG80 comeG3854 hither andG1161 reportG518 orG2228 speakG2980 anyG5100 harm ofG575 thee. 22ButG1161 weG2249 desireG515 toG191 hearG191 ofG4012 thee whatG3739 thou thinkest: forG1063 asG1161 concerningG4012 thisG3778 sectG139, itG191 isG1510 knownG1110 toG191 usG4012 thatG3754 everywhereG3837 itG191 isG1510 spokenG483 againstG4012. 23AndG2532 whenG2532 theyG846 had appointedG5021 himG846 a dayG2250, theyG846 cameG2064 toG1519 himG846 intoG1519 hisG846 lodgingG3578 inG1519 greatG4183 numberG846; toG1519 whomG3739 heG2532 expounded theG3588 matter, testifyingG1263 theG3588 kingdomG932 ofG932 GodG2316, andG2532 persuadingG3982 themG846 concerningG4012 JesusG2424, bothG5037 fromG575 theG3588 lawG3551 ofG932 MosesG3475 andG2532 fromG575 theG3588 prophetsG4396, fromG575 morningG4404 till eveningG2073. 24AndG2532 someG3588 believed theG3588 thingsG3588 whichG3588 were spokenG3004, andG2532 someG3588 disbelievedG569. 25AndG1161 whenG1161 theyG3754 agreed notG1510 amongG4314 themselvesG240, theyG3754 departed, afterG1161 thatG3754 PaulG3972 hadG1510 spokenG2980 oneG1520 wordG4487, WellG2573 spake theG3588 HolyG40 Ghost byG1223 IsaiahG2268 theG3588 prophetG4396 unto yourG1223 fathersG3962, 26sayingG3004, GoG4198 thou unto thisG3778 peopleG2992, andG2532 sayG3004, ByG3004 hearingG191 ye shallG3778 hearG191, andG2532 shallG3778 inG2532 noG3756 wise understandG4920; AndG2532 seeingG3708 ye shallG3778 seeG3708, andG2532 shallG3778 inG2532 noG3756 wise perceiveG3708: 27ForG1063 thisG3778 people’sG846 heartG2588 is waxed gross, AndG2532 theirG846 earsG3775 are dullG3975 ofG191 hearingG191, AndG2532 theirG846 eyesG3788 theyG846 have closedG2576; Lest haply theyG846 shouldG3778 perceiveG3708 withG2532 theirG846 eyesG3788, AndG2532 hearG191 withG2532 theirG846 earsG3775, AndG2532 understandG4920 withG2532 theirG846 heartG2588, AndG2532 shouldG3778 turnG1994 againG1994, AndG2532 IG2532 shouldG3778 healG2390 themG846. 28BeG1510 itG846 knownG1110 thereforeG3767 unto youG4771, thatG3754 thisG3778 salvationG4992 ofG2316 GodG2316 isG1510 sentG649 unto theG3588 GentilesG1484: theyG846 willG2316 alsoG2532 hearG191. 291 30AndG2532 heG2532 abode twoG1333 wholeG3650 yearsG1333 inG1722 hisG846 ownG2398 hired dwelling, andG2532 receivedG588 allG3956 thatG3956 wentG1531 inG1722 unto himG846, 31preachingG2784 theG3956 kingdomG932 ofG932 GodG2316, andG2532 teachingG1321 theG3956 thingsG3956 concerningG4012 theG3956 LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547 withG3326 allG3956 boldnessG3954, none forbidding himG2532.
