新约 -- 使徒行传(Acts) -- 第 28 章 ( 本篇共有 28 章 ) 　

28:1 我们既已得救，才知道那岛名叫马耳他。

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

28:2 土人看待我们，有非常的情分，因为当时下雨，天气又冷，就生火，接待我们众人。

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 那时保罗拾起一捆柴，放在火上，有一条毒蛇，因为热了出来，咬住他的手。

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 土人看见那毒蛇，悬在他手上，就彼此说，这人必是个凶手，虽然从海里救上来，天理还不容他活着。

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 保罗竟把那蛇，甩在火里，并没有受伤。

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

28:6 土人想他必要肿起来，或是忽然仆倒死了。看了多时，见他无害，就转念说，他是个神。

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 离那地方不远，有田产是岛长部百流的。他接纳我们，尽情款待三日。

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 当时，部百流的父亲，患热病和痢疾躺着。保罗进去，为他祷告，按手在他身上，治好了他。

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 从此，岛上其馀的病人，也来得了医治。

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

28:10 他们又多方的尊敬我们。到了开船的时候，也把我们所需用的送到船上。

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

28:11 过了三个月，我们上了亚力山太的船，往前行。这船以宙斯双子为记，是在海岛过了冬的。

And after three months we departed in a ship of Alexandria, which had wintered in the isle, whose sign was Castor and Pollux.

28:12 到了叙拉古，我们停泊三日。

And landing at Syracuse, we tarried there three days.

28:13 又从那里绕行，来到利基翁。过了一天，起了南风，第二天就来到部丢利。

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 在那里遇见弟兄们，请我们与他们同住七天。这样我们来到罗马。

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

28:15 那里的弟兄们，一听见我们的信息，就出来到亚比乌市，和三馆地方迎接我们。保罗见了他们，就感谢神，放心壮胆。

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.

28:16 进了罗马城，（有古卷在此有百夫长把众囚犯交给御营的统领惟有）保罗蒙准，和一个看守他的兵，另住在一处。

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.

28:17 过了三天，保罗请犹太人的首领来。他们来了，就对他们说，弟兄们，我虽没有作什么事干犯本国的百姓，和我们祖宗的规条，却被锁绑，从耶路撒冷解在罗马人的手里。

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 他们审问了我，就愿意释放我。因为在我身上，并没有该死的罪。

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

28:19 无奈犹太人不服，我不得己，只好上告于凯撒。并没有什么事，要控告我本国的百姓。

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

28:20 因此，我请你们来见面说话。我原为以色列人所指望的，被这链子捆锁。

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 他们说，我们并没有接着从犹太来论你的信，也没有弟兄到这里来，报信给我们说，你有什么不好处。

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.

28:22 但我们愿意听你的意见如何。因为这教门，我们晓得是到处被毁谤的。

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 他们和保罗约定了日子，就有许多人到他的寓处来，保罗从早到晚，对他们讲论这事，证明神国的道，引摩西的律法和先知的书，以耶稣的事，劝勉他们。

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 他所说的话，有信的，有不信的。

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

28:25 他们彼此不合，就散了。未散以先，保罗说了一句话，说，圣灵藉先知以赛亚，向你们祖宗所说的话，是不错的。

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 他说，你去告诉这百姓说，你们听是要听见，却不明白。看是要看见，却不晓得。

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 因为这百姓，油蒙了心，耳朵发沉，眼睛闭着。恐怕眼睛看见，耳朵听见，心里明白，回转过来，我就医治他们。

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 所以你们当知道，神这救恩，如今传给外邦人，他们也必听受。（有古卷在此有，

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

28:29 保罗说了这话犹太人议论纷纷的就走了）。

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

28:30 保罗在自己所租的房子里，住了足足两年。凡来见他的人，他全都接待，

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

28:31 放胆传讲神国的道，将耶稣基督的事教导人，并没有人禁止。

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