| And when we were escaped, then we knew that the island was called Melita. | Y CUANDO escapamos, entonces supimos que la isla se llamaba Melita. |
| And the barbarians showed us no common kindness; for they kindled a fire, and received us all, because of the present rain, and because of the cold. | Y los bárbaros nos mostraron no poca humanidad; porque, encendido un fuego, nos recibieron á todos, á causa de la lluvia que venía, y del frío. |
| But when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks and laid them on the fire, a viper came out by reason of the heat, and fastened on his hand. | Entonces habiendo Pablo recogido algunos sarmientos, y puéstolos en el fuego, una víbora, huyendo del calor, le acometió á la mano. |
| And when the barbarians saw the [venomous] creature hanging from his hand, they said one to another, No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, though he hath escaped from the sea, yet Justice hath not suffered to live. | Y como los bárbaros vieron la víbora colgando de su mano, decían los unos á los otros: Ciertamente este hombre es homicida, á quien, escapado de la mar, la justicia no deja vivir. |
| Howbeit he shook off the creature into the fire, and took no harm. | Mas él, sacudiendo la víbora en el fuego, ningún mal padeció. |
| But they expected that he would have swollen, or fallen down dead suddenly: but when they were long in expectation and beheld nothing amiss came to him, they changed their minds, and said that he was a god. | Empero ellos estaban esperando cuándo se había de hinchar, ó caer muerto de repente; mas habiendo esperado mucho, y viendo que ningún mal le venía, mudados, decían que era un dios. |
| Now in the neighborhood of that place were lands belonging to the chief man of the island, named Publius, who received us, and entertained us three days courteously. | En aquellos lugares había heredades del principal de la isla, llamado Publio, el cual nos recibió y hospedó tres días humanamente. |
| And it was so, that the father of Publius lay sick of fever and dysentery: unto whom Paul entered in, and prayed, and laying his hands on him healed him. | Y aconteció que el padre de Publio estaba en cama, enfermo de fiebres y de disentería: al cual Pablo entró, y después de haber orado, le puso las manos encima, y le sanó: |
| And when this was done, the rest also that had diseases in the island came, and were cured: | Y esto hecho, también otros que en la isla tenían enfermedades, llegaban, y eran sanados: |
| who also honored us with many honors; and when we sailed, they put on board such things as we needed. | Los cuales también nos honraron con muchos obsequios; y cuando partimos, nos cargaron de las cosas necesarias. |
| And after three months we set sail in a ship of Alexandria which had wintered in the island, whose sign was The Twin Brothers. | Así que, pasados tres meses, navegamos en una nave Alejandrina que había invernado en la isla, la cual tenía por enseña á Cástor y Pólux. |
| And touching at Syracuse, we tarried there three days. | Y llegados á Siracusa, estuvimos allí tres días. |
| And from thence we made a circuit, and arrived at Rhegium: and after one day a south wind sprang up, and on the second day we came to Puteoli; | De allí, costeando alrededor, vinimos á Regio; y otro día después, soplando el austro, vinimos al segundo día á Puteolos: |
| where we found brethren, and were entreated to tarry with them seven days: and so we came to Rome. | Donde habiendo hallado hermanos, nos rogaron que quedásemos con ellos siete días; y luego vinimos á Roma; |
| And from thence the brethren, when they heard of us, came to meet us as far as The Market of Appius and The Three Taverns; whom when Paul saw, he thanked God, and took courage. | De donde, oyendo de nosotros los hermanos, nos salieron á recibir hasta la plaza de Appio, y Las Tres Tabernas: á los cuales como Pablo vió, dió gracias á Dios, y tomó aliento. |
| And when we entered into Rome, Paul was suffered to abide by himself with the soldier that guarded him. | Y como llegamos á Roma, el centurión entregó los presos al prefecto de los ejércitos, mas á Pablo fué permitido estar por sí, con un soldado que le guardase. |
| And it came to pass, that after three days he called together those that were the chief of the Jews: and when they were come together, he said unto them, I, brethren, though I had done nothing against the people, or the customs of our fathers, yet was delivered prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans: | Y aconteció que tres días después, Pablo convocó á los principales de los Judíos; á los cuales, luego que estuvieron juntos, les dijo: Yo, varones hermanos, no habiendo hecho nada contra el pueblo, ni contra los ritos de la patria, he sido entregado preso desde Jerusalem en manos de los Romanos; |
| who, when they had examined me, desired to set me at liberty, because there was no cause of death in me. | Los cuales, habiéndome examinado, me querían soltar; por no haber en mí ninguna causa de muerte. |
| But when the Jews spake against it, I was constrained to appeal unto Caesar; not that I had aught whereof to accuse my nation. | Mas contradiciendo los Judíos, fuí forzado á apelar á César; no que tenga de qué acusar á mi nación. |
| For this cause therefore did I entreat you to see and to speak with [me]: for because of the hope of Israel I am bound with this chain. | Así que, por esta causa, os he llamado para veros y hablaros; porque por la esperanza de Israel estoy rodeado de esta cadena. |
| And they said unto him, We neither received letters from Judaea concerning thee, nor did any of the brethren come hither and report or speak any harm of thee. | Entonces ellos le dijeron: Nosotros ni hemos recibido cartas tocante á tí de Judea, ni ha venido alguno de los hermanos que haya denunciado ó hablado algún mal de ti. |
| But we desire to hear of thee what thou thinkest: for as concerning this sect, it is known to us that everywhere it is spoken against. | Mas querríamos oir de ti lo que sientes; porque de esta secta notorio nos es que en todos lugares es contradicha. |
| And when they had appointed him a day, they came to him into his lodging in great number; to whom he expounded [the matter,] testifying the kingdom of God, and persuading them concerning Jesus, both from the law of Moses and from the prophets, from morning till evening. | Y habiéndole señalado un día, vinieron á él muchos á la posada, á los cuales declaraba y testificaba el reino de Dios, persuadiéndoles lo concerniente á Jesús, por la ley de Moisés y por los profetas, desde la mañana hasta la tarde. |
| And some believed the things which were spoken, and some disbelieved. | Y algunos asentían á lo que se decía, mas algunos no creían. |
| And when they agreed not among themselves, they departed after that Paul had spoken one word, Well spake the Holy Spirit through Isaiah the prophet unto your fathers, | Y como fueron entre sí discordes, se fueron, diciendo Pablo esta palabra: Bien ha hablado el Espíritu Santo por el profeta Isaías á nuestros padres, |
| saying, Go thou unto this people, and say, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall in no wise understand; And seeing ye shall see, and shall in no wise perceive: | Diciendo: Ve á este pueblo, y di les: De oído oiréis, y no entenderéis; Y viendo veréis, y no percibiréis: |
| For this people's heart is waxed gross, And their ears are dull of hearing, And their eyes they have closed; Lest, haply they should perceive with their eyes, And hear with their ears, And understand with their heart, And should turn again, And I should heal them. | Porque el corazón de este pueblo se ha engrosado, Y de los oídos oyeron pesadamente, Y sus ojos taparon; Porque no vean con los ojos, Y oigan con los oídos, Y entiendan de corazón, Y se conviertan, Y yo los sane. |
| Be it known therefore unto you, that this salvation of God is sent unto the Gentiles: they will also hear. | Séaos pues notorio que á los Gentiles es enviada esta salud de Dios: y ellos oirán. |
| [And when he had said these words, the Jews departed, having much disputing among themselves.] | Y habiendo dicho esto, los Judíos salieron, teniendo entre sí gran contienda. |
| And he abode two whole years in his own hired dwelling, and received all that went in unto him, | Pablo empero, quedó dos años enteros en su casa de alquiler, y recibía á todos los que á él venían, |
| preaching the kingdom of God, and teaching the things concerning the Lord Jesus Christ with all boldness, none forbidding him. | Predicando el reino de Dios y enseñando lo que es del Señor Jesucristo con toda libertad, sin impedimento. |
