1	And when they were escaped, then they knew that the island was called Melita.	H · G · S  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.	H · G · S  barbarous people
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.	H · G · S  bundle of sticks
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.	H · G · S
5	And he shook off the beast into the fire, and felt no harm.	H · G · S  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.	H · G · S
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.	H · G · S
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.	H · G · S
9	So when this was done, others also, which had diseases in the island, came, and were healed:	H · G · S  were healed
10	Who also honoured us with many honours; and when we departed, they laded us with such things as were necessary.	H · G · S

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

	Paul Witnesses to the Jewish Leaders in Rome 17-29
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.	H · G · S
18	Who, when they had examined me, would have let me go, because there was no cause of death in me.	H · G · S
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.	H · G · S
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.	H · G · S
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.	H · G · S
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.	H · G · S
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.	H · G · S  into his lodging the prophets
24	And some believed the things which were spoken, and some believed not.	H · G · S  some believed
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,	H · G · S  Esaias the prophet
26	Saying, Go unto this people, and say, Hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and not perceive:	H · G · S  6I9,10 M1314,15 K412 L810 J1240
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.	H · G · S
28	Be it known therefore unto you, that the salvation of God is sent unto the Gentiles, and that they will hear it.	H · G · S  unto the Gentiles they will hear
29	And when he had said these words, the Jews departed, and had great reasoning among themselves.	H · G · S
