DRC, VulgClementine, KJV - Acts - 28

28:1  And when we had escaped, then we knew that the island was called Melita. But the barbarians shewed us no small courtesy.

28:1  Et cum evasissemus, tunc cognovimus quia Melita insula vocabatur. Barbari vero præstabant non modicam humanitatem nobis.

28:1  And when they were escaped, then they knew that the island was called Melita.

28:2  For kindling a fire, they refreshed us all, because of the present rain and of the cold.

28:2  Accensa enim pyra, reficiebant nos omnes propter imbrem qui imminebat, et frigus.

28:2  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.

28:3  And when Paul had gathered together a bundle of sticks and had laid them on the fire, a viper, coming out of the heat, fastened on his hand.

28:3  Cum congregasset autem Paulus sarmentorum aliquantam multitudinem, et imposuisset super ignem, vipera a calore cum processisset, invasit manum ejus.

28:3  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.

28:4  And when the barbarians saw the beast hanging on his hand, they said one to another: Undoubtedly this man is a murderer, who, though he hath escaped the sea, yet vengeance doth not suffer him to live.

28:4  Ut vero viderunt barbari pendentem bestiam de manu ejus, ad invicem dicebant : Utique homicida est homo hic, qui cum evaserit de mari, ultio non sinit eum vivere.

28:4  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.

28:5  And he indeed, shaking off the beast into the fire, suffered no harm.

28:5  Et ille quidem excutiens bestiam in ignem, nihil mali passus est.

28:5  And he shook off the beast into the fire, and felt no harm.

28:6  But they supposed that he would begin to swell up and that he would suddenly fall down and die. But expecting long and seeing that there came no harm to him, changing their minds, they said that he was a god.

28:6  At illi existimabant eum in tumorem convertendum, et subito casurum et mori. Diu autem illis exspectantibus, et videntibus nihil mali in eo fieri, convertentes se, dicebant eum esse deum.

28:6  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.

28:7  Now in these places were possessions of the chief man of the island, named Publius: who, receiving us for three days, entertained us courteously.

28:7  In locis autem illis erant prædia principis insulæ, nomine Publii, qui nos suscipiens, triduo benigne exhibuit.

28:7  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.

28:8  And it happened that the father of Publius lay sick of a fever and of a bloody flux. To whom Paul entered in. And when he had prayed and laid his hands on him, he healed him.

28:8  Contigit autem patrem Publii febribus et dysenteria vexatum jacere. Ad quem Paulus intravit : et cum orasset, et imposuisset ei manus, salvavit eum.

28:8  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.

28:9  Which being done, all that had diseases in the island came and were healed.

28:9  Quo facto, omnes qui in insula habebant infirmitates, accedebant, et curabantur :

28:9  So when this was done, others also, which had diseases in the island, came, and were healed:

28:10  Who also honoured us with many honours: and when we were to set sail, they laded us with such things as were necessary.

28:10  qui etiam multis honoribus nos honoraverunt, et navigantibus imposuerunt quæ necessaria erant.

28:10  Who also honoured us with many honours; and when we departed, they laded us with such things as were necessary.

28:11  And after three months, we sailed in a ship of Alexandria, that had wintered in the island, whose sign was the Castors.

28:11  Post menses autem tres navigavimus in navi Alexandrina, quæ in insula hiemaverat, cui erat insigne Castorum.

28:12  And landing at Syracuse, we tarried there three days.

28:13  From thence, compassing by the shore, we came to Rhegium: and after one day, the south wind blowing, we came the second day to Puteoli:

28:13  Inde circumlegentes devenimus Rhegium : et post unum diem, flante austro, secunda die venimus Puteolos :

28:13  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:

28:14  Where, finding brethren, we were desired to tarry with them seven days. And so we went to Rome.

28:14  ubi inventis fratribus rogati sumus manere apud eos dies septem : et sic venimus Romam.

28:14  Where we found brethren, and were desired to tarry with them seven days: and so we went toward Rome.

28:15  And from thence, when the brethren had heard of us, they came to meet us as far as Appii Forum and the Three Taverns. Whom when Paul saw, he gave thanks to God and took courage.

28:15  Et inde cum audissent fratres, occurrerunt nobis usque ad Appii forum, ac tres Tabernas. Quos cum vidisset Paulus, gratias agens Deo, accepit fiduciam.

28:17  And after the third day, he called together the chief of the Jews. And when they were assembled, he said to them: Men, brethren, I, having done nothing against the people or the custom of our fathers, was delivered prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans.

28:17  Post tertium autem diem convocavit primos Judæorum. Cumque convenissent, dicebat eis : Ego, viri fratres, nihil adversus plebem faciens, aut morem paternum, vinctus ab Jerosolymis traditus sum in manus Romanorum,

28:17  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.

28:18  Who, when they had examined me, would have released me, for that there was no cause of death in me.

28:18  qui cum interrogationem de me habuissent, voluerunt me dimittere, eo quod nulla esset causa mortis in me.

28:18  Who, when they had examined me, would have let me go, because there was no cause of death in me.

28:19  But the Jews contradicting it, I was constrained to appeal unto Caesar: not that I had anything to accuse my nation of.

28:19  Contradicentibus autem Judæis, coactus sum appellare Cæsarem, non quasi gentem meam habens aliquid accusare.

28:19  But when the Jews spake against it, I was constrained to appeal unto Cæsar; not that I had ought to accuse my nation of.

28:20  For this cause therefore I desired to see you and to speak to you. Because that for the hope of Israel, I am bound with this chain.

28:20  Propter hanc igitur causam rogavi vos videre, et alloqui. Propter spem enim Israël catena hac circumdatus sum.

28:20  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.

28:21  But they said to him: We neither received letters concerning thee from Judea: neither did any of the brethren that came hither relate or speak any evil of thee.

28:21  At illi dixerunt ad eum : Nos neque litteras accepimus de te a Judæa, neque adveniens aliquis fratrum nuntiavit, aut locutus est quid de te malum.

28:21  And they said unto him, We neither received letters out of Judæa concerning thee, neither any of the brethren that came shewed or spake any harm of thee.

28:22  But we desire to hear of thee what thou thinkest: for as concerning this sect, we know that it is every where contradicted.

28:22  Rogamus autem a te audire quæ sentis : nam de secta hac notum est nobis quia ubique ei contradicitur.

28:22  But we desire to hear of thee what thou thinkest: for as concerning this sect, we know that every where it is spoken against.

28:23  And when they had appointed him a day, there came very many to him unto his lodgings. To whom he expounded, testifying the kingdom of God and persuading them concerning Jesus, out of the law of Moses and the prophets, from morning until evening.

28:23  Cum constituissent autem illi diem, venerunt ad eum in hospitium plurimi, quibus exponebat testificans regnum Dei, suadensque eis de Jesu ex lege Moysi et prophetis a mane usque ad vesperam.

28:23  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.

28:24  Et quidam credebant his quæ dicebantur : quidam vero non credebant.

28:24  And some believed the things which were spoken, and some believed not.

28:25  And when they agreed not among themselves, they departed, Paul speaking this one word: Well did the Holy Ghost speak to our fathers by Isaias the prophet,

28:25  Cumque invicem non essent consentientes, discedebant, dicente Paulo unum verbum : Quia bene Spiritus Sanctus locutus est per Isaiam prophetam ad patres nostros,

28:25  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,

28:26  Saying: Go to this people and say to them: With the ear you shall hear and shall not understand: and seeing you shall see and shall not perceive.

28:26  dicens : Vade ad populum istum, et dic ad eos : Aure audietis, et non intelligetis, et videntes videbitis, et non perspicietis.

28:26  Saying, Go unto this people, and say, Hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and not perceive:

28:27  For the heart of this people is grown gross, and with their ears have they heard heavily and their eyes they have shut, lest perhaps 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.

28:27  Incrassatum est enim cor populi hujus, et auribus graviter audierunt, et oculos suos compresserunt : ne forte videant oculis, et auribus audiant, et corde intelligant, et convertantur, et sanem eos.

28:27  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.

28:28  Be it known therefore to you that this salvation of God is sent to the Gentiles: and they will hear it.

28:28  Notum ergo sit vobis, quoniam gentibus missum est hoc salutare Dei, et ipsi audient.

28:28  Be it known therefore unto you, that the salvation of God is sent unto the Gentiles, and that they will hear it.

28:29  And when he had said these things, the Jews went out from him, having much reasoning among themselves.

28:29  Et cum hæc dixisset, exierunt ab eo Judæi, multam habentes inter se quæstionem.

28:29  And when he had said these words, the Jews departed, and had great reasoning among themselves.

28:30  And he remained two whole years in his own hired lodging: and he received all that came in to him,

28:30  Mansit autem biennio toto in suo conducto : et suscipiebat omnes qui ingrediebantur ad eum,

28:30  And Paul dwelt two whole years in his own hired house, and received all that came in unto him,

28:31  Preaching the kingdom of God and teaching the things which concern the Lord Jesus Christ, with all confidence, without prohibition.

28:31  prædicans regnum Dei, et docens quæ sunt de Domino Jesu Christo cum omni fiducia, sine prohibitione.

28:31  Preaching the kingdom of God, and teaching those things which concern the Lord Jesus Christ, with all confidence, no man forbidding him.
