Acts of the Apostles 28

KING JAMES BIBLE	NOVA VULGATA
1 And when they were escaped, then they knew that the island was called Melita.	1 Et cum evasissemus, tunc cognovimus quia Melita in sula vocatur.
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.	2 Barbari vero praestabant non modicam humanitatem nobis; accensa enim pyra,suscipiebant nos omnes propter imbrem, qui imminebat, et frigus.
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.	3 Cumcongregasset autem Paulus sarmentorum aliquantam multitudinem et imposuissetsuper ignem, vipera, a calore cum processisset, invasit manum eius.
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.	4 Ut veroviderunt barbari pendentem bestiam de manu eius, ad invicem dicebant: “ Utiquehomicida est homo hic, qui cum evaserit de mari, Ultio non permisit vivere ”.
5 And he shook off the beast into the fire, and felt no harm.	5 Et ille quidem excutiens bestiam in ignem, nihil mali passus est;
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.	6 at illiexspectabant eum in tumorem convertendum aut subito casurum et mori. Diu autemillis exspectantibus et videntibus nihil mali in eo fieri, convertentes sedicebant eum esse deum.
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.	7 In locis autem illis erant praedia principis insulae nomine Publii, qui nossuscipiens triduo benigne hospitio recepit.
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.	8 Contigit autem patrem Publiifebribus et dysenteria vexatum iacere, ad quem Paulus intravit et, cum orassetet imposuisset ei manus, sanavit eum.
9 So when this was done, others also, which had diseases in the island, came, and were healed:	9 Quo facto, et ceteri, qui in insulahabebant infirmitates, accedebant et curabantur;
10 Who also honoured us with many honours; and when we departed, they laded us with such things as were necessary.	10 qui etiam multis honoribusnos honoraverunt et navigantibus imposuerunt, quae necessaria erant.
11 And after three months we departed in a ship of Alexandria, which had wintered in the isle, whose sign was Castor and Pollux.	11 Post menses autem tres, navigavimus in navi Alexandrina, quae in insulahiemaverat, cui erat insigne Castorum.
12 And landing at Syracuse, we tarried there three days.	12 Et cum venissemus Syracusam, mansimusibi triduo;
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:	13 inde solventes devenimus Rhegium. Et post unum diem,superveniente austro, secunda die venimus Puteolos,
14 Where we found brethren, and were desired to tarry with them seven days: and so we went toward Rome.	14 ubi, inventis fratribus,rogati sumus manere apud eos dies septem; et sic venimus Romam.
15 And from thence, when the brethren heard of us, they came to meet us as far as Appiiforum, and The three taverns: whom when Paul saw, he thanked God, and took courage.	15 Et inde cumaudissent de nobis fratres, occurrerunt nobis usque ad Appii Forum et TresTabernas; quos cum vidisset Paulus, gratias agens Deo, accepit fiduciam.
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.	16 Cum introissemus autem Romam, permissum est Paulo manere sibimet cumcustodiente se milite.
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.	17 Factum est autem, ut post tertium diem convocaretprimos Iudaeorum; cumque convenissent dicebat eis: “ Ego, viri fratres, nihiladversus plebem faciens aut mores paternos, vinctus ab Hierosolymis traditus sumin manus Romanorum,
18 Who, when they had examined me, would have let me go, because there was no cause of death in me.	18 qui cum interrogationem de me habuissent, volebantdimittere, eo quod nulla causa esset mortis 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.	19 contradicentibus autemIudaeis, coactus sum appellare Caesarem, non quasi gentem meam habens aliquidaccusare.
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.	20 Propter hanc igitur causam rogavi vos videre et alloqui; propterspem enim Israel catena hac circumdatus sum ”.
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.	21 At illi dixerunt ad eum: “Nos neque litteras accepimus de te a Iudaea, neque adveniens aliquis fratrumnuntiavit aut locutus est quid de te malum.
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.	22 Rogamus autem a te audire quaesentis; nam de secta hac notum est nobis quia ubique ei contradicitur ”.
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.	23 Cum constituissent autem illi diem, venerunt ad eum in hospitium plures,quibus exponebat testificans regnum Dei suadensque eos de Iesu ex Lege Moysis etProphetis a mane usque ad vesperam.
24 And some believed the things which were spoken, and some believed not.	24 Et quidam credebant his, quae dicebantur,quidam vero non credebant;
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,	25 cumque invicem non essent consentientes,discedebant, dicente Paulo unum verbum: “ Bene Spiritus Sanctus locutus estper Isaiam prophetam ad patres vestros
26 Saying, Go unto this people, and say, Hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and not perceive:	26 dicens: “Vade ad populum istum et dic: Auditu audietis et non intellegetis, et videntes videbitis et non perspicietis.
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.	27 Incrassatum est enim cor populi huius, et auribus graviter audierunt et oculos suos compresserunt, ne forte videant oculis et auribus audiant et corde intellegant et convertantur, et sanabo illos”.
28 Be it known therefore unto you, that the salvation of God is sent unto the Gentiles, and that they will hear it.	28 Notum ergo sit vobis quoniam gentibus missum est hoc salutare Dei; ipsi etaudient! ”.
29 And when he had said these words, the Jews departed, and had great reasoning among themselves.	29
30 And Paul dwelt two whole years in his own hired house, and received all that came in unto him,	30 Mansit autem biennio toto in suo conducto; et suscipiebatomnes, qui ingrediebantur ad eum,
31 Preaching the kingdom of God, and teaching those things which concern the Lord Jesus Christ, with all confidence, no man forbidding him.	31 praedicans regnum Dei et docens quae suntde Domino Iesu Christo cum omni fiducia sine prohibitione.
