使徒行传 28
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
在马耳他岛
28 我们安全上岸后,才知道那个岛的名字叫马耳他。 2 岛上的居民对我们非常友善。因为下雨,天气又冷,他们就生火接待我们。 3 保罗拿起一捆柴放进火堆里,不料有一条毒蛇经不住热钻了出来,咬住了他的手。 4 那里的居民看见毒蛇吊在保罗手上,就交头接耳地说:“这人一定是个凶手,虽然侥幸没有淹死,天理却不容他活下去。” 5 可是保罗把蛇甩进火里,并没有受伤。 6 他们以为保罗的手一定会肿起来或者他会突然倒毙,但是等了很久,见他还是安然无恙,就改变了态度,说他是个神明。
7 那个岛的首领名叫部百流,他的田产就在附近。他接待我们,热情款待了我们三天。 8 当时,部百流的父亲患痢疾,正发热躺在床上。保罗去为他祷告,把手按在他身上治好了他。 9 这事以后,岛上其他的病人都来了,他们都得了医治。 10 他们处处尊敬我们,在我们启航的时候,又赠送我们途中所需用的物品。
保罗抵达罗马
11 三个月后,我们搭乘一艘停在该岛过冬的船离开。这船叫“双神号”,来自亚历山大。 12 我们先到叙拉古港,在那里停泊三天, 13 然后继续前行,到达利基翁。第二天,起了南风,第三天我们抵达部丢利, 14 在那里遇见几位弟兄姊妹,应邀和他们同住了七天,然后前往罗马。 15 那里的弟兄姊妹听说我们来了,便到亚比乌和三馆迎接我们。保罗见到他们后,就感谢上帝,心中受到鼓励。 16 进了罗马城后,保罗获准在卫兵的看守下自己一个人住。
继续传道
17 三天后,保罗请来当地犹太人的首领,对他们说:“弟兄们,虽然我没有做过任何对不起同胞或违背祖先规矩的事,却在耶路撒冷遭囚禁,又被交到罗马人的手里。 18 罗马官员审讯了我,发现我没有什么该死的罪,想释放我, 19 犹太人却反对,我不得已只好上诉凯撒。我并非有什么事要控告自己的同胞。 20 为此,我才请你们来当面谈,我受捆绑是为了以色列人所盼望的那位。”
21 他们说:“犹太境内的同胞没有给我们写信提及你的事,也没有弟兄到这里说你的坏话。 22 不过,我们倒很想听听你的观点,因为我们知道你们这一派的人到处受人抨击。”
23 于是,他们和保罗约定了会面的日期。那一天,很多人来到保罗住的地方。从早到晚,保罗向他们传扬上帝国的道,引用摩西律法和先知书劝他们相信有关耶稣的事。 24 有些人听后相信了他的话,有些人不相信, 25 他们彼此意见不一。在他们散去之前,保罗说了一句话:“圣灵借以赛亚先知对你们祖先所说的话真是一点不错, 26 祂说,
“‘你去告诉百姓,
你们听了又听,却不明白;
看了又看,却不领悟。
27 因为这百姓心灵麻木,
耳朵发背,眼睛昏花,
以致眼睛看不见,
耳朵听不见,心里不明白,无法回心转意,
得不到我的医治。’
28 所以你们当知道,上帝的救恩已经传给了外族人,他们也必听。”
29 听完保罗的话后,那些犹太人就回去了,他们中间起了激烈的争论。[a]
30 后来,保罗租了一间房子,在那里住了整整两年,接待所有到访的人。 31 他勇敢地传讲上帝的国,教导有关主耶稣基督的事,没有受到任何拦阻。

Acts 28
New Living Translation
Paul on the Island of Malta
28 Once we were safe on shore, we learned that we were on the island of Malta. 2 The people of the island were very kind to us. It was cold and rainy, so they built a fire on the shore to welcome us.
3 As Paul gathered an armful of sticks and was laying them on the fire, a poisonous snake, driven out by the heat, bit him on the hand. 4 The people of the island saw it hanging from his hand and said to each other, “A murderer, no doubt! Though he escaped the sea, justice will not permit him to live.” 5 But Paul shook off the snake into the fire and was unharmed. 6 The people waited for him to swell up or suddenly drop dead. But when they had waited a long time and saw that he wasn’t harmed, they changed their minds and decided he was a god.
7 Near 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. 8 As 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. 9 Then all the other sick people on the island came and were healed. 10 As 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.
Paul Arrives at Rome
11 It 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[a] as its figurehead. 12 Our first stop was Syracuse,[b] where we stayed three days. 13 From there we sailed across to Rhegium.[c] A day later a south wind began blowing, so the following day we sailed up the coast to Puteoli. 14 There we found some believers,[d] who invited us to spend a week with them. And so we came to Rome.
15 The brothers and sisters[e] in Rome had heard we were coming, and they came to meet us at the Forum[f] on the Appian Way. Others joined us at The Three Taverns.[g] When Paul saw them, he was encouraged and thanked God.
16 When we arrived in Rome, Paul was permitted to have his own private lodging, though he was guarded by a soldier.
Paul Preaches at Rome under Guard
17 Three days after Paul’s arrival, he called together the local Jewish leaders. He said to them, “Brothers, I was arrested in Jerusalem and handed over to the Roman government, even though I had done nothing against our people or the customs of our ancestors. 18 The Romans tried me and wanted to release me, because they found no cause for the death sentence. 19 But when the Jewish leaders protested the decision, I felt it necessary to appeal to Caesar, even though I had no desire to press charges against my own people. 20 I asked you to come here today so we could get acquainted and so I could explain to you that I am bound with this chain because I believe that the hope of Israel—the Messiah—has already come.”
21 They replied, “We have had no letters from Judea or reports against you from anyone who has come here. 22 But we want to hear what you believe, for the only thing we know about this movement is that it is denounced everywhere.”
23 So a time was set, and on that day a large number of people came to Paul’s lodging. He explained and testified about the Kingdom of God and tried to persuade them about Jesus from the Scriptures. Using the law of Moses and the books of the prophets, he spoke to them from morning until evening. 24 Some were persuaded by the things he said, but others did not believe. 25 And after they had argued back and forth among themselves, they left with this final word from Paul: “The Holy Spirit was right when he said to your ancestors through Isaiah the prophet,
26 ‘Go and say to this people:
When you hear what I say,
you will not understand.
When you see what I do,
you will not comprehend.
27 For the hearts of these people are hardened,
and their ears cannot hear,
and they have closed their eyes—
so their eyes cannot see,
and their ears cannot hear,
and their hearts cannot understand,
and they cannot turn to me
and let me heal them.’[h]
28 So I want you to know that this salvation from God has also been offered to the Gentiles, and they will accept it.”[i]
30 For the next two years, Paul lived in Rome at his own expense.[j] He welcomed all who visited him, 31 boldly proclaiming the Kingdom of God and teaching about the Lord Jesus Christ. And no one tried to stop him.

Pawulo mu Merita
28 (A)Awo bwe twamala okutuuka obulungi ku lukalu ne tulyoka tutegeera nti tuli ku kizinga Merita. 2 Bannansi b’oku kizinga baatulaga ekisa kingi ekitali kya bulijjo, ne bakuma omuliro ne twota, kubanga obudde bwali bwa butiti nga n’enkuba etandise okutonnya. 3 Pawulo yali akuŋŋaanyizza akaganda k’obuku, naye yali akassa ku muliro, omusota ogw’obutwa ennyo ne guva mu buku obwo ne gweripa ku mukono gwe. 4 (B)Bwe baalaba ekintu ekireebeeta ku mukono gwa Pawulo ne bagambagana nti, “Ddala oyo mutemu. Newaakubadde ng’ennyanja yagiwonye, naye era omusango gukyamulondoola teguumuganye kulama!” 5 (C)Naye Pawulo omusota n’agukunkumulira mu muliro n’atabaako kabi konna. 6 (D)Abantu ne balindirira balabe bw’atandika okuzimba oba okugwa eri afiirewo, naye bwe baalindiririra ebbanga eddene nga tebamulabako kamogo, ne baddamu okwerowooza, ne bagamba nti, “Oyo katonda!”
7 Waaliwo ennimiro okuliraana n’olubalama lw’ennyanja we twali, nga ya Pabuliyo eyali omukulu w’ekizinga ekyo. Awo n’atwaniriza mu maka ge n’atusembeza n’atulabirira okumala ennaku ssatu. 8 (E)Mu kiseera ekyo kitaawe yali mulwadde omusujja ng’alimu ekiddukano ky’omusaayi. Pawulo n’agenda gy’ali n’amusabira, n’amussaako emikono n’amuwonya! 9 Ekyo bwe kyabaawo, n’abalwadde abalala bonna ku kizinga abaalina endwadde ne bajja gy’ali ne bawonyezebwa. 10 Ne batuwa ebirabo bingi, era ekiseera kyaffe eky’okusaabala ku nnyanja bwe kyatuuka, ne batuleetera ebintu bingi ku kyombo bye twali twetaaga okukozesa mu lugendo lwaffe.
Pawulo Atuuka mu Ruumi
11 (F)Oluvannyuma lw’emyezi esatu ne tulyoka tusitula. Twagendera mu kyombo eky’e Alegezanderiya ekiyitibwa Abooluganda Abalongo. Kyali kyewogomye awo ku kizinga okumala obudde bwonna olw’obutiti. 12 Ne tusooka okugoba mu Sirakusi, ne tumalawo ennaku ssatu. 13 Bwe twava awo ne twetooloola ne tutuuka e Regio. Oluvannyuma lw’olunaku lumu ne tujjirwa empewo eva obukiikaddyo bwa bugwanjuba, olunaku olwaddirira ne tutuuka e Putiyooli. 14 (G)Wano twasangawo abooluganda, ne batusaba tubeere nabo ennaku musanvu. Bwe twava awo ne tutuuka e Ruumi. 15 (H)Abooluganda abaali eyo bwe baawulira ebyatutuukako, ne bajja okutusisinkana mu Katale ka Apiya ne ku Bisulo Ebisatu. Pawulo bwe yabalaba ne yeebaza Katonda era n’aguma omwoyo.
Pawulo Abuulira mu Ruumi nga bw’akuumibwa
16 (I)Bwe twatuuka mu Ruumi Pawulo n’akkirizibwa okubeera yekka, kyokka ng’abeera n’omuserikale amukuuma. 17 (J)Awo nga wayiseewo ennaku ssatu, Pawulo n’ayita abakulembeze b’Abayudaaya. Bwe baakuŋŋaana n’ayogera nabo nti, “Abasajja baganda bange, Abayudaaya bankwatira bwereere mu Yerusaalemi, ne bampaayo mu Baruumi, so nga sirina ky’ensobezza ku bantu, wadde ku mpisa z’abajjajjaffe wadde obulombolombo. 18 (K)Abaruumi ne bampozesa, era ne baagala okunta, kubanga tebaalabawo musango gwe nzizizza gunsaanyiza kufa. 19 (L)Naye Abayudaaya bwe baagaana okukkiriza ensala eyo, ne mpalirizibwa okujulira ewa Kayisaali, newaakubadde nga saaliko kye mpawaabira bantu ba ggwanga lyange. 20 (M)Noolwekyo mbayise wano tumanyagane era twogeraganye. Olw’essuubi lya Isirayiri, kyenvudde nsibibwa n’olujegere luno.”
21 (N)Ne bamuddamu nti, “Tetufunanga ku bbaluwa ziva mu Buyudaaya nga zikwogerako, wadde baganda baffe okubaako bye batutegeeza ku ggwe nga bibi. 22 (O)Kyokka twagala okuwulira ebirowoozo byo ku kibiina ekyo, kubanga tumanyi nti buli wamu teriiyo gw’owulira ng’akyogerako bulungi.”
23 (P)Awo ne bategeka olunaku, era ku olwo abantu ne bajja bangi, mu kifo we yasulanga. N’abannyonnyola ng’ajulira obwakabaka bwa Katonda, n’abategeeza ku Yesu, nga byonna abyesigamya ku mateeka ga Musa ne ku bannabbi. Yatandika ku nkya n’amala akawungeezi. 24 (Q)Abamu ne bakkiriza bye yayogera, naye abalala ne batakkiriza. 25 Awo nga balemeddwa okukkiriziganya, Pawulo n’abasiibuza ebigambo bino nti, “Mwoyo Mutukuvu yali mutuufu bwe yayogera eri bajjajjammwe ng’ayita mu nnabbi Isaaya nti,
26 “ ‘Genda eri abantu bano obagambe nti,
Okuwulira muliwulira, naye temulitegeera
n’okulaba muliraba naye temulyetegereza.
27 (R)Kubanga omutima gw’abantu bano gugubye.
N’amatu gaabwe gazibikidde,
n’amaaso gaabwe gazibiridde.
Si kulwa nga balaba n’amaaso gaabwe,
ne bawulira n’amatu gaabwe,
ne bategeera n’emitima gyabwe,
ne bakyuka okudda gye ndi, ne mbawonya.’
28 (S)“Noolwekyo mumanye nti obulokozi obuva eri Katonda buweereddwa Abaamawanga era bajja kubuwuliriza.”
29 Pawulo bwe yamala okwogera ebyo, Abayudaaya ne bagenda nga bawakana nnyo bokka na bokka.
30 Awo Pawulo n’amala emyaka ebiri miramba ng’asula mu nnyumba ye gye yeepangisiza, era n’ayanirizanga buli eyajjanga okumulaba. 31 (T)N’abuuliranga obwakabaka bwa Katonda, era n’ayigirizanga ebigambo bya Mukama waffe Yesu Kristo mu lwatu nga tewali amuziyiza.
