Acts - Chapter: 28


28:1	And when they were scaped, then they knewe that the Ile was called Milete.
28:2	And the people of the countrey shewed vs no lytel kyndnes: for they kindled a fyre, and receiued vs euery one, because of the presente rayne, and because of the colde.
28:3	And when Paule had gathered a boundel of styckes, and put them into the fyre, there came a viper out of the heate, and lept on his hand.
28:4	When the men of the countrey sawe the worme hange on his hande, they sayd amonge them selues: this man must nedes be a murtherer. Whom (though he haue escaped the sea) yet vengeaunce suffreth not to lyue.
28:5	But he shouke of the vermen into the fyre and felt no harme.
28:6	Howe be it they wayted when he should haue swolne or fallen doune dead sodenly. But after they had loked a greate whyle, and sawe no harme come come to him, they chaunged their mindes, and said that he was a God.
28:7	In the same quarters the chiefe man of the yle whose name was Publius had a lordeshyp: the same receiued vs, and lodged vs thre dayes courteouslye.
28:8	And it fortuned that the father of Publius laie sicke of a fieuer and of a blouddy flixe. To whom Paule entred in and prayed, and layed his handes on him, and healed him.
28:9	When this was done, other also which had dyseases in the yle came and were healed.
28:10	And they dyd vs great honoure. And when we departed they loded vs with thinges necessary.
28:11	After thre monethes we departed in a shyppe of Alexandria, whiche had wintred in the yle whose badge was Castor and Pollux:
28:12	And when we came to Cyracusa, we taried ther .iij. dayes.
28:13	And from thence we set a compasse and came to Regium. And after one daye the south wynd blew, and we came the next daye to Putiolus:
28:14	where we founde brethren, and were desired to tarye wyth them seuen daies, and so came to Rome.
28:15	And from thence, when the brethren hearde of vs, they came against vs to Apiphorum, and to the thre tauernes. When Paule sawe them, he thanked God, and waxed bold.
28:16	And when he came to Rome, the vndercaptaine deliuered the prisoners to the chiefe captaine of the host: but Paule was suffred to dwelle by him selfe with one souldier that kepte him.
28:17	And it fortuned after thre dayes that Paul called the chiefe of the Iewes together. And when they were come, he saide vnto them: Men and brethren though I haue committed nothinge againste the people or lawes of oure fathers: yet was I deliuered prisoner from Ierusalem into the handes of the Romaynes.
28:18	Whiche when they had examyned me, woulde haue let me go, because they found no cause of death in me.
28:19	But when the Iewes cryed contrary, I was constrayned to appeale to Cesar: not because I had ought to accuse my people of.
28:20	For thys cause haue I called for you, euen to se you, and to speake wyth you: because that for the hope of Israell, I am bounde wyth thys chayne.
28:21	And they saide vnto him: We neyther receiued letters out of Iewrye partaininge vnto the, neyther came any of the brethren that shewed or spake anye harme of the.
28:22	But we wyll heare of the what thou thynkest. For we haue hearde of this secte that euery where it is spoken agaynste.
28:23	And when they had appoynted him a daye, there came manye vnto him into hys lodgynge, to whom he expounded and testifyed the kingedome of God, and preached vnto them of Iesu: both out of the Prophetes, euen from morninge to nyghte.
28:24	And some beleued the thinges, whyche were spoken, and some beleued not.
28:25	When they agreed not amonge them selues, they departed, after that Paule had spoken one word: Welspake the holy ghoste by Esay the prophet vnto youre fathers, saiyng: go vnto thys people,
28:26	and saye: wyth youre eares shall ye heare, & shall not vnderstande: and wyth youre eies shal ye se and shall not perceiue.
28:27	For the hert of this people is waxed grosse and their eares were thicke of hearinge, and theyr eyes haue they closed: lest they should se with their eyes, and heare with their eares, and vnderstande with their hertes, and should be conuerted, and I should heale them.
28:28	Be it knowen therfore vnto you, that this saluation of God is sente to the gentyls, and they shall heare it.
28:29	And when he had sayed that, the Iewes departed, and had greate despicions among them selues.
28:30	And Paule dwelt two yeares full in his lodgynge, and receyued all that came to hym,
28:31	preaching those thynges, whyche concerned the Lorde Iesus wyth all confydence vnforboden.


28:1	And when they were scaped, then they knewe, that: the yle was called Milete.
28:2	And the straungers shewed vs no lytell kyndnes: for they kyndled a fyre, and receaued vs euery one, because of the present rayne, & because of the colde.
28:3	And when Paul had gathered a bondell of styckes, and layde them on the fyre, ther came a vyper out of the heat, & caught hym by the hande.
28:4	When the straungers sawe the beast hange on hys hande, they sayde amonge them selues: no doute thys man is a mortherer: Whom (though he haue escaped the see) yet vengeaunce suffreth not to lyue.
28:5	And he shouke of the vyper into the fyre, and felt no harme.
28:6	Howbeit they wayted when he shulde haue swolne, or fallen downe deed sodenly. But after they had loked a greate whyle, and sawe no harme come to hym, they chaunged theyr myndes, and sayde that he was a God.
28:7	In the same quarters were londes of the chefe man of the yle (whose name was Publius) whych receaued vs, & lodged vs thre dayes courteously.
28:8	And it fortuned that the father of Publius laye sycke of a feuer, and of a bloudy flixe. To whom paul entred in and prayde, and layde hys handes on hym & healeth him.
28:9	So, when this was done, other also whych had dyseases in the yle, cam and were healed:
28:10	whych also dyd vs great honoure. And when we departed, they laded vs wt soch thynges as were necessary.
28:11	After thre monethes we departed in a ship of Alexandry, whych had wyntred in the yle, whose badge was Castor & Pollux.
28:12	And when we came to Cyracusa, we taryed there thre dayes.
28:13	And from thence we fet a compasse, and came to Regium. And after one daye the south wynde blewe, and we came the nexte daye to Putiolus:
28:14	where we founde brethren, and were desyred to tary wyth them seuen dayes, and so came we to Rome.
28:15	And from thence, when the brethren hearde of vs, they came to mete vs at Apiphorum, and at the thre tauernes. When Paul sawe them, he thancked God, and wexed bolde.
28:16	And when we came to Rome, the vndercaptayne delyuered the presoners to the chefe captayne of the host: but Paul was suffred to dwell by hym selfe wyth a soudyer that kept hym.
28:17	And after thre dayes, Paul called the chefe of the Iewes together. And when they were come, he sayde vnto them: Men and brethren, though, I haue committed nothing agaynst the people or lawes of the Elders yet was I delyuered presoner from Ierusalem into the handes of the Romayns.
28:18	Whych when they had examined me, wolde haue let me go, because ther was no cause of death in me.
28:19	But when the Iewes spake contrary, I was constrayned to appeale vnto cesar: not that I had ought to accuse my people of.
28:20	For thys cause then haue I called for you, euen to se you, and to speake wyth you: because that for the hope of Israel I am bounde wt this cheyne.
28:21	And they sayde vnto hym: we nether receaued lettres out of Iewry pertayninge vnto the nether eny of the brethren that came shewed or spake eny harme of the.
28:22	But we wyll heare of the what thou thynckest. For as concernyng thys secte, we knowe that euery where it is spoken agaynst.
28:23	And when they had appoynted him a daye, ther came many to hym into hys lodgyng. To whom he expounded and testifyed the kyngdom of God and preached vnto them of Iesus: both out of the lawe of Moses and out of the Prophetes, euen from morninge to nyght.
28:24	And some beleued the thynges whych were spoken, and some beleued not.
28:25	And when they agreed not amonge them selues, they departed, after that Paul had spoken one worde: well spake the holy ghost by Esay the prophet vnto oure fathers,
28:26	saying: Go vnto thys people, and saye: wyth youre eares shall ye heare, and shall not vnderstande: and wyth youre eyes shall ye se, & not perceaue.
28:27	For the hert of thys people is wexed grosse, and wyth their eares haue they had no lust to heare, and their eyes haue they closed: lest they shulde se wyth their eyes, & heare wyth their eares, and vnderstande with their hertes, and shuld be conuerted, and I shuld heale them.
28:28	Be it knowen therfore vnto you, that thys saluacyon of God is sent to the gentyls, and they shall heare it.
28:29	And when he had sayde these wordes, the Iewes departed from him and had greate despycions amonge them selues.
28:30	And Paul dwelt two yeares full in hys lodgynge, and receaued all that cam in vnto hym,
28:31	preachinge the kyngdome of God, and teachynge those thynges whych concerne the Lorde Iesus wyth all confydence, no man forbyddyng hym.


28:1	And when they were come safe, then they knewe that the Yle was called Melita.
28:2	And the Barbarians shewed vs no litle kindnesse: for they kindled a fire, and receiued vs euery one, because of the present showre, and because of the colde.
28:3	And when Paul had gathered a nomber of stickes, and laid them on the fire, there came a viper out of the heate, and leapt on his hand.
28:4	Nowe when ye Barbarians saw the worme hang on his hand, they said among themselues, This man surely is a murtherer, whom, though he hath escaped the sea, yet Vengeance hath not suffered to liue.
28:5	But he shooke off the worme into the fire, and felt no harme.
28:6	Howbeit they wayted whe he should haue swolne, or fallen downe dead suddenly: but after they had looked a great while, and sawe no inconuenience come to him, they changed their mindes, and said, That he was a God.
28:7	In the same quarters, the chiefe man of the Yle (whose name was Publius) had possessions: the same receiued vs, and lodged vs three dayes courteously.
28:8	And so it was, that the father of Publius lay sicke of the feauer, and of a bloodie flixe: to whom Paul entred in, and when he prayed, he laide his hands on him, and healed him.
28:9	When this then was done, other also in the Yle, which had diseases, came to him, and were healed,
28:10	Which also did vs great honour: and when we departed, they laded vs with things necessarie.
28:11	Nowe after three moneths we departed in a shippe of Alexandria, which had wintred in the Yle, whose badge was Castor and Pollux.
28:12	And when we arriued at Syracuse, we taried there three dayes.
28:13	And from thence we set a compasse, and came to Rhegium: and after one day, the South wind blewe, and we came the seconde day to Putioli:
28:14	Where we found brethren, and were desired to tary with them seuen dayes, and so we went toward Rome.
28:15	And from thence, when the brethren heard of vs, they came to meete vs at the Market of Appius, and at the Three tauernes, whom when Paul sawe, he thanked God, and waxed bolde.
28:16	So when we came to Rome, the Centurion deliuered the prisoners to the generall Captaine: but Paul was suffered to dwell by him selfe with a souldier that kept him.
28:17	And the third day after, Paul called the chiefe of the Iewes together: and when they were come, he said vnto them, Men and brethren, though I haue committed nothing against the people, or Lawes of the fathers, yet was I deliuered prisoner from Hierusalem into the handes of the Romanes.
28:18	Who when they had examined me, would haue let me goe, because there was no cause of death in me.
28:19	But when the Iewes spake contrary, I was constrained to appeale vnto Cesar, not because I had ought to accuse my nation of.
28:20	For this cause therefore haue I called for you, to see you, and to speake with you: for that hope of Israels sake, I am bound with this chaine.
28:21	Then they saide vnto him, We neither receiued letters out of Iudea concerning thee, neither came any of the brethren that shewed or spake any euill of thee.
28:22	But we will heare of thee what thou thinkest: for as concerning this sect, we knowe that euery where it is spoken against.
28:23	And when they had appointed him a day, there came many vnto him into his lodging, to whom he expounded testifying the kingdome of God, and persuading them those things that concerne Iesus, both out of the Lawe of Moses, and out of the Prophets, from morning to night.
28:24	And some were persuaded with ye things which were spoken, and some beleeued not.
28:25	Therefore when they agreed not among themselues, they departed, after that Paul had spoken one word, to wit, Well spake the holy Ghost by Esaias the Prophet vnto our fathers,
28:26	Saying, Goe vnto this people, and say, By hearing ye shall heare, and shall not vnderstand, and seeing ye shall see, and not perceiue.
28:27	For the heart of this people is waxed fatte, and their eares are dull of hearing, and with their eyes haue they winked, least they shoulde see with their eyes, and heare with their eares, and vnderstand with their heartes, and should returne that I might heale them.
28:28	Be it knowen therefore vnto you, that this saluation of God is sent to the Gentiles, and they shall heare it.
28:29	And when he had saide these things, the Iewes departed, and had great reasoning among themselues.
28:30	And Paul remained two yeeres full in an house hired for himselfe, and receiued all that came in vnto him,
28:31	Preaching the kingdome of God, and teaching those things which concerne the Lord Iesus Christ, with all boldnesse of speache, without let.
