Douay-Rheims
Vulgata
1
And
when
we
had
escaped,
then
we
knew
that
the
island
was
called
Melita.
But
the
barbarians
shewed
us
no
small
courtesy.
1
Et
cum
evasissemus,
tunc
cognovimus
quia
Melita
insula
vocabatur.
Barbari
vero
præstabant
non
modicam
humanitatem
nobis.
2
For
kindling
a
fire,
they
refreshed
us
all,
because
of
the
present
rain
and
of
the
cold.
2
Accensa
enim
pyra,
reficiebant
nos
omnes
propter
imbrem
qui
imminebat,
et
frigus.
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.
3
Cum
congregasset
autem
Paulus
sarmentorum
aliquantam
multitudinem,
et
imposuisset
super
ignem,
vipera
a
calore
cum
processisset,
invasit
manum
ejus.
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.
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.
5
And
he
indeed,
shaking
off
the
beast
into
the
fire,
suffered
no
harm.
5
Et
ille
quidem
excutiens
bestiam
in
ignem,
nihil
mali
passus
est.
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.
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.
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.
7
In
locis
autem
illis
erant
prædia
principis
insulæ,
nomine
Publii,
qui
nos
suscipiens,
triduo
benigne
exhibuit.
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.
8
Contigit
autem
patrem
Publii
febribus
et
dysenteria
vexatum
jacere.
Ad
quem
Paulus
intravit:
et
cum
orasset,
et
imposuisset
ei
manus,
salvavit
eum.
9
Which
being
done,
all
that
had
diseases
in
the
island
came
and
were
healed.
9
Quo
facto,
omnes
qui
in
insula
habebant
infirmitates,
accedebant,
et
curabantur:
10
Who
also
honoured
us
with
many
honours:
and
when
we
were
to
set
sail,
they
laded
us
with
such
things
as
were
necessary.
10
qui
etiam
multis
honoribus
nos
honoraverunt,
et
navigantibus
imposuerunt
quæ
necessaria
erant.
11
And
after
three
months,
we
sailed
in
a
ship
of
Alexandria,
that
had
wintered
in
the
island,
whose
sign
was
the
Castors.
11
Post
menses
autem
tres
navigavimus
in
navi
Alexandrina,
quæ
in
insula
hiemaverat,
cui
erat
insigne
Castorum.
12
And
when
we
were
come
to
Syracusa,
we
tarried
there
three
days.
12
Et
cum
venissemus
Syracusam,
mansimus
ibi
triduo.
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:
13
Inde
circumlegentes
devenimus
Rhegium:
et
post
unum
diem,
flante
austro,
secunda
die
venimus
Puteolos:
14
Where,
finding
brethren,
we
were
desired
to
tarry
with
them
seven
days.
And
so
we
went
to
Rome.
14
ubi
inventis
fratribus
rogati
sumus
manere
apud
eos
dies
septem:
et
sic
venimus
Romam.
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.
15
Et
inde
cum
audissent
fratres,
occurrerunt
nobis
usque
ad
Appii
forum,
ac
tres
Tabernas.
Quos
cum
vidisset
Paulus,
gratias
agens
Deo,
accepit
fiduciam.
16
And
when
we
were
come
to
Rome,
Paul
was
suffered
to
dwell
by
himself,
with
a
soldier
that
kept
him.
16
Cum
autem
venissemus
Romam,
permissum
est
Paulo
manere
sibimet
cum
custodiente
se
milite.
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.
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,
18
Who,
when
they
had
examined
me,
would
have
released
me,
for
that
there
was
no
cause
of
death
in
me.
18
qui
cum
interrogationem
de
me
habuissent,
voluerunt
me
dimittere,
eo
quod
nulla
esset
causa
mortis
in
me.
19
But
the
Jews
contradicting
it,
I
was
constrained
to
appeal
unto
Caesar:
not
that
I
had
anything
to
accuse
my
nation
of.
19
Contradicentibus
autem
Judæis,
coactus
sum
appellare
Cæsarem,
non
quasi
gentem
meam
habens
aliquid
accusare.
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.
20
Propter
hanc
igitur
causam
rogavi
vos
videre,
et
alloqui.
Propter
spem
enim
Israël
catena
hac
circumdatus
sum.
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.
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.
22
But
we
desire
to
hear
of
thee
what
thou
thinkest:
for
as
concerning
this
sect,
we
know
that
it
is
every
where
contradicted.
22
Rogamus
autem
a
te
audire
quæ
sentis:
nam
de
secta
hac
notum
est
nobis
quia
ubique
ei
contradicitur.
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.
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.
24
And
some
believed
the
things
that
were
said:
but
some
believed
not.
24
Et
quidam
credebant
his
quæ
dicebantur:
quidam
vero
non
credebant.
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,
25
Cumque
invicem
non
essent
consentientes,
discedebant,
dicente
Paulo
unum
verbum:
Quia
bene
Spiritus
Sanctus
locutus
est
per
Isaiam
prophetam
ad
patres
nostros,
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.
26
dicens:
Vade
ad
populum
istum,
et
dic
ad
eos:
Aure
audietis,
et
non
intelligetis,
et
videntes
videbitis,
et
non
perspicietis.
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.
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
Be
it
known
therefore
to
you
that
this
salvation
of
God
is
sent
to
the
Gentiles:
and
they
will
hear
it.
28
Notum
ergo
sit
vobis,
quoniam
gentibus
missum
est
hoc
salutare
Dei,
et
ipsi
audient.
29
And
when
he
had
said
these
things,
the
Jews
went
out
from
him,
having
much
reasoning
among
themselves.
29
Et
cum
hæc
dixisset,
exierunt
ab
eo
Judæi,
multam
habentes
inter
se
quæstionem.
30
And
he
remained
two
whole
years
in
his
own
hired
lodging:
and
he
received
all
that
came
in
to
him,
30
Mansit
autem
biennio
toto
in
suo
conducto:
et
suscipiebat
omnes
qui
ingrediebantur
ad
eum,
31
Preaching
the
kingdom
of
God
and
teaching
the
things
which
concern
the
Lord
Jesus
Christ,
with
all
confidence,
without
prohibition.
31
prædicans
regnum
Dei,
et
docens
quæ
sunt
de
Domino
Jesu
Christo
cum
omni
fiducia,
sine
prohibitione.
