Acts 28:1-20

28:1

And
<2532>

when they were escaped
<1295> (5685)_,

then
<5119>

they knew
<1921> (5627)

that
<3754>

the island
<3520>

was called
<2564> (5743)

Melita
<3194>_.

28:2

And
<1161>

the barbarous people
<915>

shewed
<3930> (5707)

us
<2254>

no
<3756>

little
<5177> (5631)

kindness
<5363>_:

for
<1063>

they kindled
<381> (5660)

a fire
<4443>_,

and received
<4355> (5639)

us
<2248>

every one
<3956>_,

because
<1223>

of the present
<2186> (5761)

rain
<5205>_,

and
<2532>

because
<1223>

of the cold
<5592>_.

28:3

And
<1161>

when Paul
<3972>

had gathered
<4962> (5660)

a bundle
<4128>

of sticks
<5434>_,

and
<2532>

laid
<2007> (5631)

[them] on
<1909>

the fire
<4443>_,

there came
<1831> (5631)

a viper
<2191>

out of
<1537>

the heat
<2329>_,

and fastened on
<2510> (5656)

his
<846>

hand
<5495>_.

28:4

And
<1161>

when
<5613>

the barbarians
<915>

saw
<1492> (5627)

the [venomous] beast
<2342>

hang
<2910> (5734)

on
<1537>

his
<846>

hand
<5495>_,

they said
<3004> (5707)

among
<4314>

themselves
<240>_,

No doubt
<3843>

this
<3778>

man
<444>

is
<2076> (5748)

a murderer
<5406>_,

whom
<3739>_,

though he hath escaped
<1295> (5685) <1537>

the sea
<2281>_,

yet vengeance
<1349>

suffereth
<1439> (5656)

not
<3756>

to live
<2198> (5721)_.

28:5

And
<3303> <3767>

he shook off
<660> (5660)

the beast
<2342>

into
<1519>

the fire
<4442>_,

and felt
<3958> (5627)

no
<3762>

harm
<2556>_.

28:6

Howbeit
<1161>

they looked
<4328> (5707)

when he
<846>

should
<3195> (5721)

have swollen
<4092> (5745)_,

or
<2228>

fallen down
<2667> (5721)

dead
<3498>

suddenly
<869>_:

but
<1161>

after they
<846>

had looked
<4328> (5723)

a great while
<1909> <4183>_,

and
<2532>

saw
<2334> (5723)

no
<3367>

harm
<824>

come
<1096> (5740)

to
<1519>

him
<846>_,

they changed their minds
<3328> (5734)_,

and said
<3004> (5707)

that he
<846>

was
<1511> (5750)

a god
<2316>_.

28:7

<1161>@ In
<1722> <4012>

the same
<1565>

quarters
<5117>

were
<5225> (5707)

possessions
<5564>

of the chief man
<4413>

of the island
<3520>_,

whose name was
<3686>

Publius
<4196>_;

who
<3739>

received
<324> (5666)

us
<2248>_,

and lodged us
<3579> (5656)

three
<5140>

days
<2250>

courteously
<5390>_.

28:8

And
<1161>

it came to pass
<1096> (5633)_,

that the father
<3962>

of Publius
<4196>

lay
<2621> (5738)

sick of
<4912> (5746)

a fever
<4446>

and
<2532>

of a bloody flux
<1420>_:

to
<4314>

whom
<3739>

Paul
<3972>

entered in
<1525> (5631)_,

and
<2532>

prayed
<4336> (5666)_,

and laid
<2007> (0)

his hands
<5495>

on
<2007> (5631)

him
<846>_,

and healed
<2390> (5662)

him
<846>_.

28:9

So
<3767>

when
<1096> (0)

this
<5127>

was done
<1096> (5637)_,

others
<3062>

also
<2532>_,

which
<3588>

had
<2192> (5723)

diseases
<769>

in
<1722>

the island
<3520>_,

came
<4334> (5711)_,

and
<2532>

were healed
<2323> (5712)_:

28:10

Who
<3739>

also
<2532>

honoured
<5092>

us
<2248>

with many
<4183>

honours
<5091> (5656)_;

and
<2532>

when we departed
<321> (5746)_,

they laded
<2007> (5639)

[us] with such things as
<4314>

were necessary
<5532>_.

28:11

And
<1161>

after
<3326>

three
<5140>

months
<3376>

we departed
<321> (5681)

in
<1722>

a ship
<4143>

of Alexandria
<222>_,

which had wintered
<3914> (5761)

in
<1722>

the isle
<3520>_,

whose sign
<3902>

was Castor and Pollux
<1359>_.

28:12

And
<2532>

landing
<2609> (5685)

at
<1519>

Syracuse
<4946>_,

we tarried
<1961> (5656)

[there] three
<5140>

days
<2250>_.

28:13

And from thence
<3606>

we fetched a compass
<4022> (5631)_,

and came
<2658> (5656)

to
<1519>

Rhegium
<4484>_:

and
<2532>

after
<3326>

one
<3391>

day
<2250>

the south wind
<3558>

blew
<1920> (5637)_,

and we came
<2064> (5627)

the next day
<1206>

to
<1519>

Puteoli
<4223>_:

28:14

Where
<3757>

we found
<2147> (5631)

brethren
<80>_,

and were desired
<3870> (5681)

to tarry
<1961> (5658)

with
<1909>

them
<846>

seven
<2033>

days
<2250>_:

and
<2532>

so
<3779>

we went
<2064> (5627)

toward
<1519>

Rome
<4516>_.

28:15

And from thence
<2547>_,

when the brethren
<80>

heard
<191> (5660)

of
<4012>

us
<2257>_,

they came
<1831> (5627)

to meet
<529> <1519>

us
<2254>

as far as
<891>

Appii
<675>

forum
<5410>_,

and
<2532>

The three
<5140>

taverns
<4999>_:

whom
<3739>

when Paul
<3972>

saw
<1492> (5631)_,

he thanked
<2168> (5660)

God
<2316>_,

and took
<2983> (5627)

courage
<2294>_.

28:16

And
<1161>

when
<3753>

we came
<2064> (5627)

to
<1519>

Rome
<4516>_,

the centurion
<1543>

delivered
<3860> (5656)

the prisoners
<1198>

to the captain of the guard
<4759>_:

but
<1161>

Paul
<3972>

was suffered
<2010> (5681)

to dwell
<3306> (5721)

by
<2596>

himself
<1438>

with
<4862>

a soldier
<4757>

that kept
<5442> (5723)

him
<846>_.

28:17

And
<1161>

it came to pass
<1096> (5633)_,

that after
<3326>

three
<5140>

days
<2250>

Paul
<3972>

called
<4779> (0)

the chief
<4413> <5607> (5752)

of the Jews
<2453>

together
<4779> (5670)_:

and
<1161>

when they
<846>

were come together
<4905> (5631)_,

he said
<3004> (5707)

unto
<4314>

them
<846>_,

Men
<435>

[and] brethren
<80>_,

though I
<1473>

have committed
<4160> (5660)

nothing
<3762>

against
<1727>

the people
<2992>_,

or
<2228>

customs
<1485>

of our fathers
<3971>_,

yet was I delivered
<3860> (5681)

prisoner
<1198>

from
<1537>

Jerusalem
<2414>

into
<1519>

the hands
<5495>

of the Romans
<4514>_.

28:18

Who
<3748>_,

when they had examined
<350> (5660)

me
<3165>_,

would
<1014> (5711)

have let [me] go
<630> (5658)_,

because
<1223>

there was
<5225> (5721)

no
<3367>

cause
<156>

of death
<2288>

in
<1722>

me
<1698>_.

28:19

But
<1161>

when the Jews
<2453>

spake against
<483> (5723)

[it], I was constrained
<315> (5681)

to appeal
<1941> (5670)

unto Caesar
<2541>_;

not
<3756>

that
<5613>

I had
<2192> (5723)

ought
<5100>

to accuse
<2723> (0)

my
<3450>

nation
<1484>

of
<2723> (5658)_.

28:20

For
<1223>

this
<5026>

cause
<156>

therefore
<3767>

have I called
<3870> (5656)

for you
<5209>_,

to see
<1492> (5629)

[you], and
<2532>

to speak with
<4354> (5658)

[you]: because that
<1752>

for
<1063>

the hope
<1680>

of Israel
<2474>

I am bound with
<4029> (5736)

this
<5026>

chain
<254>_.
