保罗在马耳他岛上
28 大家安全上岸后，才知道这个岛名叫马耳他。 2 当地居民们对我们非常热情，他们生了一堆火，迎接我们大家，因为当时下雨天冷。 3 保罗又拾来了一堆柴火，放在火上。这时一条蛇因为热钻了出来，咬住了保罗的手， 4 当地居民看到蛇从保罗的手上垂下来，彼此便说道∶“这家伙肯定是个杀人犯，虽然他从海上逃了出来，义 [a]还是不让他活。” 5 但是保罗把蛇甩到了火里，自己一点也没受伤害。 6 他们原以为，他会肿胀或者突然倒地死去，可等了好久，什么异常现象都没看见，就改变了对他的看法，说他是个神。
7 离那个地方不远，酋长部百流有一些田产。他把我们迎到家里，热情地款待了我们三天。 8 酋长的父亲正患热病和痢疾，躺在床上。保罗走进屋去看望他。祷告一番之后，把手放在了他的身上，他便被治愈了。 9 此后，岛上有病的人都来了，并都得到了治疗。 10 他们给了我们很多礼物。当我们启程时，为我们备齐了所需的东西。
保罗去罗马
11 三个月以后，我们登上了一艘在马耳他过冬的船出海了。它来自亚力山太城，艏像是双神 [b]。 12 我们到了叙拉古，在那里呆了三天。 13 然后，又从那里出发，到了利基翁。一天后刮起了一阵南风。第二天我们来到了部丢利。 14 我们在那儿找到了一些兄弟。他们邀请我们在那里住了七天，然后，就这样，我们来到了罗马。 15 罗马的弟兄们已经听说了我们抵达的消息，便来到远至亚比乌 [c]和三馆 [d]去迎接我们。保罗看到他们时，就感谢上帝，并鼓起了勇气。
保罗在罗马
16 当我们到达罗马时，他们让保罗自己单住，让一个士兵看守他。 17 三天后，保罗把犹太首领们叫到一起，对他们说∶“兄弟们，虽然我没做过反对我们同胞和祖宗的习俗的事情，但在耶路撒冷，我却被做为囚徒交给了罗马人。 18 罗马人审问我之后，因为我没有犯下什么该判死刑的罪，要释放我。 19 可是，犹太人却反对，我便被迫向凯撒起诉，我没有任何控告来起诉我们的民族， 20 这是我请求见你们，与你们谈话的原因，我是因为以色列人的希望才被戴上这枷锁的。”
21 犹太首领们对保罗说∶“我们没有从犹大接到有关你的信。从那里来的兄弟们，也没有一个人说过你的坏话， 22 但是我们想听听你的观点，因为我们知道，这个教派处处受人反驳。”
23 于是，他们与保罗约定了聚会的日子。那天，有许多人来到了他住的地方。保罗从早到晚，向他们讲解并为上帝王国做了见证，并努力用摩西律法和先知著作，来使他们信服关于耶稣的事情。 24 对于他所说的话，有些人信服，而其他人却不信。 25 他说完这话后，这些人之间的意见不一致，他们便开始离开。临走之前，保罗对他们说了这些话：
“圣灵通过先知以赛亚对你们的祖先讲得多好啊。他说：
26 ‘你去告诉这个民族，
你们会听了又听，
但却不会理解：
你们将会看了又看，可却理解不了所看见的。
27 因为这个民族的心已变得如此地迟钝，
他们的耳朵听力有困难，
他们闭上了眼睛，
不然的话，他们的眼睛可以看见，
耳朵可以听见，
心会领悟，
在忏诲中归向我，
我会治愈他们的。’ (A)
28 因此，你们应该知道上帝的这个拯救已被传送给了外族人，他们是会听的！” 29 [e]
30 保罗在用自己的费用所租的房子里住了整整两年。这期间，他热情地接待了所有去看望他的人们。 31 他向人们宣告上帝王国，并教导主耶稣基督的事。他大胆地讲，而且也没有受到过任何阻碍。

Paul Ashore on Malta
28 Once safely on shore, we(A) found out that the island(B) was called Malta. 2 The islanders showed us unusual kindness. They built a fire and welcomed us all because it was raining and cold. 3 Paul gathered a pile of brushwood and, as he put it on the fire, a viper, driven out by the heat, fastened itself on his hand. 4 When the islanders saw the snake hanging from his hand,(C) they said to each other, “This man must be a murderer; for though he escaped from the sea, the goddess Justice has not allowed him to live.”(D) 5 But Paul shook the snake off into the fire and suffered no ill effects.(E) 6 The people expected him to swell up or suddenly fall dead; but after waiting a long time and seeing nothing unusual happen to him, they changed their minds and said he was a god.(F)
7 There was an estate nearby that belonged to Publius, the chief official of the island. He welcomed us to his home and showed us generous hospitality for three days. 8 His father was sick in bed, suffering from fever and dysentery. Paul went in to see him and, after prayer,(G) placed his hands on him(H) and healed him.(I) 9 When this had happened, the rest of the sick on the island came and were cured. 10 They honored us(J) in many ways; and when we were ready to sail, they furnished us with the supplies we needed.
Paul’s Arrival at Rome
11 After three months we put out to sea in a ship that had wintered in the island—it was an Alexandrian ship(K) with the figurehead of the twin gods Castor and Pollux. 12 We put in at Syracuse and stayed there three days. 13 From there we set sail and arrived at Rhegium. The next day the south wind came up, and on the following day we reached Puteoli. 14 There we found some brothers and sisters(L) who invited us to spend a week with them. And so we came to Rome. 15 The brothers and sisters(M) there had heard that we were coming, and they traveled as far as the Forum of Appius and the Three Taverns to meet us. At the sight of these people Paul thanked God and was encouraged. 16 When we got to Rome, Paul was allowed to live by himself, with a soldier to guard him.(N)
Paul Preaches at Rome Under Guard
17 Three days later he called together the local Jewish leaders.(O) When they had assembled, Paul said to them: “My brothers,(P) although I have done nothing against our people(Q) or against the customs of our ancestors,(R) I was arrested in Jerusalem and handed over to the Romans. 18 They examined me(S) and wanted to release me,(T) because I was not guilty of any crime deserving death.(U) 19 The Jews objected, so I was compelled to make an appeal to Caesar.(V) I certainly did not intend to bring any charge against my own people. 20 For this reason I have asked to see you and talk with you. It is because of the hope of Israel(W) that I am bound with this chain.”(X)
21 They replied, “We have not received any letters from Judea concerning you, and none of our people(Y) who have come from there has reported or said anything bad about you. 22 But we want to hear what your views are, for we know that people everywhere are talking against this sect.”(Z)
23 They arranged to meet Paul on a certain day, and came in even larger numbers to the place where he was staying. He witnessed to them from morning till evening, explaining about the kingdom of God,(AA) and from the Law of Moses and from the Prophets(AB) he tried to persuade them about Jesus.(AC) 24 Some were convinced by what he said, but others would not believe.(AD) 25 They disagreed among themselves and began to leave after Paul had made this final statement: “The Holy Spirit spoke the truth to your ancestors when he said(AE) through Isaiah the prophet:
26 “‘Go to this people and say,
“You will be ever hearing but never understanding;
you will be ever seeing but never perceiving.”
27 For this people’s heart has become calloused;(AF)
they hardly hear with their ears,
and they have closed their eyes.
Otherwise they might see with their eyes,
hear with their ears,
understand with their hearts
and turn, and I would heal them.’[a](AG)
28 “Therefore I want you to know that God’s salvation(AH) has been sent to the Gentiles,(AI) and they will listen!” [29] [b]
30 For two whole years Paul stayed there in his own rented house and welcomed all who came to see him. 31 He proclaimed the kingdom of God(AJ) and taught about the Lord Jesus Christ—with all boldness(AK) and without hindrance!

28 And when they were escaped, then they knew that the island was called Melita.
2 And the barbarous people shewed us no little kindness: for they kindled a fire, and received us every one, because of the present rain, and because of the cold.
3 And when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks, and laid them on the fire, there came a viper out of the heat, and fastened on his hand.
4 And when the barbarians saw the venomous beast hang on his hand, they said among themselves, No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, though he hath escaped the sea, yet vengeance suffereth not to live.
5 And he shook off the beast into the fire, and felt no harm.
6 Howbeit they looked when he should have swollen, or fallen down dead suddenly: but after they had looked a great while, and saw no harm come to him, they changed their minds, and said that he was a god.
7 In the same quarters were possessions of the chief man of the island, whose name was Publius; who received us, and lodged us three days courteously.
8 And it came to pass, that the father of Publius lay sick of a fever and of a bloody flux: to whom Paul entered in, and prayed, and laid his hands on him, and healed him.
9 So when this was done, others also, which had diseases in the island, came, and were healed:
10 Who also honoured us with many honours; and when we departed, they laded us with such things as were necessary.
11 And after three months we departed in a ship of Alexandria, which had wintered in the isle, whose sign was Castor and Pollux.
12 And landing at Syracuse, we tarried there three days.
13 And from thence we fetched a compass, and came to Rhegium: and after one day the south wind blew, and we came the next day to Puteoli:
14 Where we found brethren, and were desired to tarry with them seven days: and so we went toward Rome.
15 And from thence, when the brethren heard of us, they came to meet us as far as Appii forum, and The three taverns: whom when Paul saw, he thanked God, and took courage.
16 And when we came to Rome, the centurion delivered the prisoners to the captain of the guard: but Paul was suffered to dwell by himself with a soldier that kept him.
17 And it came to pass, that after three days Paul called the chief of the Jews together: and when they were come together, he said unto them, Men and brethren, though I have committed nothing against the people, or customs of our fathers, yet was I delivered prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans.
18 Who, when they had examined me, would have let me go, because there was no cause of death in me.
19 But when the Jews spake against it, I was constrained to appeal unto Caesar; not that I had ought to accuse my nation of.
20 For this cause therefore have I called for you, to see you, and to speak with you: because that for the hope of Israel I am bound with this chain.
21 And they said unto him, We neither received letters out of Judaea concerning thee, neither any of the brethren that came shewed or spake any harm of thee.
22 But we desire to hear of thee what thou thinkest: for as concerning this sect, we know that every where it is spoken against.
23 And when they had appointed him a day, there came many to him into his lodging; to whom he expounded and testified the kingdom of God, persuading them concerning Jesus, both out of the law of Moses, and out of the prophets, from morning till evening.
24 And some believed the things which were spoken, and some believed not.
25 And when they agreed not among themselves, they departed, after that Paul had spoken one word, Well spake the Holy Ghost by Esaias the prophet unto our fathers,
26 Saying, Go unto this people, and say, Hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and not perceive:
27 For the heart of this people is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes have they closed; lest they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.
28 Be it known therefore unto you, that the salvation of God is sent unto the Gentiles, and that they will hear it.
29 And when he had said these words, the Jews departed, and had great reasoning among themselves.
30 And Paul dwelt two whole years in his own hired house, and received all that came in unto him,
31 Preaching the kingdom of God, and teaching those things which concern the Lord Jesus Christ, with all confidence, no man forbidding him.
