使徒行传 28
Chinese Standard Bible (Simplified)
在马耳他岛上受到款待
28 我们获救以后才知道那岛叫做马耳他， 2 那里的土人对我们非常友善。因为当时下着雨，又因为天气冷，他们就生了火接待我们大家。 3 保罗收集了一捆柴火，放在火堆上的时候，有一条毒蛇因热钻了出来，咬住[a]他的手。 4 那些土人一看见那毒蛇悬在他的手上，就彼此说：“这个人一定是个杀人犯！虽然从海里获救了，但天理还是不让他活着。” 5 可是保罗把那毒蛇甩在火里，没有受任何伤害。 6 他们本来以为他快要肿起来，或是突然倒下死去，然而等了很久，看见他没有任何异常，就改变了想法，说他是个神。
在马耳他岛上治病
7 在那个地方附近，有些田产是岛上首领普布利乌的。他欢迎我们，热情地招待了我们三天。 8 当时，普布利乌的父亲患热病和痢疾，躺在床上[b]。保罗就进去为他祷告，按手在他身上，使他痊愈了。 9 这么一来，岛上其他有病的人也都来了，并且都得了痊愈。 10 他们十分尊重我们；开船的时候，还送上所需要的东西。
最终到达罗马
11 过了三个月，我们上了一条亚历山大的船起航。这船是在那海岛过冬的，以“宙斯双子神”为船头雕像。 12 我们在叙拉古靠岸，停留了三天， 13 又从那里绕道航行，到达利基翁。过了一天，刮起了南风，第二天我们就到了普特奥利， 14 在那里找到一些弟兄，受邀请与他们同住了七天。
这样，我们来到了罗马。 15 那里的弟兄们听说了有关我们的事，赶到阿比乌市场和三馆来迎接我们。保罗见到他们，就感谢神，得了勇气。 16 我们进了罗马以后，[c]保罗获准在一个士兵的看守之下，独自居住。
第一次会见罗马的犹太人
17 第三天，保罗[d]请犹太人的首领们来。他们聚集了，保罗就对他们说：“各位兄弟，我没有做过任何反对我们民族或先祖规矩的事，却做为囚犯从耶路撒冷被交到罗马人手中。 18 他们审问我以后，因为没有处死我的任何理由，本来想要释放我。 19 但是由于犹太人反对，我被迫向凯撒上诉，并不是有什么事要控告自己的同胞。 20 因这理由，我请你们来见面谈话。其实我是为了以色列所盼望的事，才被这锁链捆锁的。”
21 他们对保罗说：“我们没有收到从犹太来的有关你的文件。来到这里的同胞[e]中，也没有人报告过或说过任何有关你的坏事。 22 不过我们觉得应该听听你的想法，因为我们确实知道有关这教派的事，它到处遭人反对。”
对保罗传道的反应
23 于是他们和保罗定好了日子，就有更多的人来到他的住所。保罗从早到晚对他们讲解，为神的国郑重地做见证，并且引用摩西的律法和先知书上有关耶稣的事来劝导他们。 24 对他所说的话，有些人信从了，有些人却不相信。
25 他们彼此不一致，开始散去，保罗就说了一句话：“圣灵藉着先知以赛亚对你们[f]祖先所说的是对的。 26 他说：
‘你去告诉这子民：
你们将听了又听，但绝不会领悟；
你们将看了又看，但绝不会明白；
27 因为这子民的心麻木了，
他们充耳不闻，眼睛闭着；
免得他们眼睛看见，耳朵听见，心里领悟，
回转过来，我就使他们痊愈。’[g]
28 所以你们应当知道：神的这救恩已经传给了外邦人，他们反倒会听！” 29 保罗说完这些话，犹太人就走了，彼此议论纷纷。[h]
保罗畅通无阻地传道
30 保罗在自己租的房子里住了整整两年，所有来到他那里的人，他都欢迎。 31 他宣讲神的国、教导有关主耶稣基督的事，满有胆量、没有拦阻。

Acts 28
New American Standard Bible
Safe at Malta
28 When (A)they had been brought safely through, (B)then we found out that (C)the island was called [a]Malta. 2 (D)The [b]natives showed us extraordinary kindness, for they kindled a fire and (E)took us all in because of the rain that had started and because of the cold. 3 But when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks and laid them on the fire, a viper came out [c]because of the heat and fastened itself on his hand. 4 When (F)the [d]natives saw the creature hanging from his hand, they began saying to one another, “(G)Undoubtedly this man is a murderer, and though he has been saved from the sea, [e]justice has not allowed him to live.” 5 However, [f](H)Paul shook the creature off into the fire and suffered no harm. 6 Now they were expecting that he was going to swell up or suddenly fall down dead. But after they had waited a long time and had seen nothing unusual happen to him, they changed their minds and (I)began to say that he was a god.
7 Now in the neighboring parts of that place were lands belonging to the [g]leading man of the island, named Publius, who welcomed us and entertained us warmly for three days. 8 And it happened that the father of Publius was lying in bed afflicted with a recurring fever and dysentery. Paul went in to see him, and after he (J)prayed, he (K)laid his hands on him and healed him. 9 After this happened, the rest of the people on the island who had diseases were coming to him and being cured. 10 They also showed us many honors, and when we were about to set sail, they [h]supplied us with [i]everything we needed.
Paul Arrives in Rome
11 After three months we set sail on (L)an Alexandrian ship which had wintered at the island, and which had [j]the Twin Brothers for its figurehead. 12 After we put in at Syracuse, we stayed there for three days. 13 From there we sailed around and arrived at Rhegium, and a day later a south wind came up, and on the second day we came to Puteoli. 14 [k]There we found some (M)brothers and sisters, and were invited to stay with them for seven days; and that is how we came to Rome. 15 And from there the (N)brothers and sisters, when they heard about us, came as far as the [l]Market of Appius and the [m]Three Inns to meet us; and when Paul saw them, he thanked God and took courage.
16 When we entered Rome, Paul was (O)allowed to stay by himself, with the soldier who was guarding him.
17 After three days [n]Paul called together those who were (P)the leading men of the Jews, and when they came together, he began saying to them, “(Q)Brothers, (R)though I had done nothing against our people or (S)the customs of our [o]fathers, yet I was handed over to the Romans as a prisoner from Jerusalem. 18 And when they had (T)examined me, they (U)were willing to release me because there were (V)no grounds [p]for putting me to death. 19 But when the Jews [q]objected, I was forced to (W)appeal to Caesar, not that I had any accusation against my nation. 20 For this reason, therefore, I [r]requested to see you and to speak with you, since I am wearing (X)this chain for (Y)the sake of the hope of Israel.” 21 They said to him, “We have neither received letters from Judea concerning you, nor has any of (Z)the brothers come here and reported or spoken anything bad about you. 22 But we desire to hear from you what [s]your views are; for regarding this (AA)sect, it is known to us that (AB)it is spoken against everywhere.”
23 When they had set a day for [t]Paul, people came to him at (AC)his lodging in large numbers; and he was explaining to them by solemnly (AD)testifying about the kingdom of God and trying to persuade them concerning Jesus, (AE)from both the Law of Moses and from the Prophets, from morning until evening. 24 (AF)Some were being persuaded by the things said by Paul, but others would not believe. 25 And when they disagreed with one another, they began leaving after Paul said one parting statement: “The Holy Spirit rightly spoke through Isaiah the prophet to your fathers, 26 saying,
‘(AG)Go to this people and say,
“[u](AH)You will keep on hearing, and will not understand;
And [v]you will keep on seeing, and will not perceive;
27 (AI)For the hearts of this people have become [w]insensitive,
And with their ears they [x]hardly hear,
And they have closed their eyes;
Otherwise they might see with their eyes,
And hear with their ears,
And understand with their heart and return,
And I would heal them.”’
28 Therefore, let it be known to you that (AJ)this salvation of God has been sent (AK)to the Gentiles; they will also listen.”[y]
30 Now Paul stayed two full years [z]in his own rented lodging and welcomed all who came to him, 31 [aa](AL)preaching the kingdom of God and teaching things about the Lord Jesus Christ (AM)with all openness, unhindered.
