Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1And when we had escaped, then we knew that the island was called Melita. But the barbarians shewed us no small courtesy.
1我們既已得救，才知道那島名叫 馬耳他 。
2For kindling a fire, they refreshed us all, because of the present rain, and of the cold.
2土人看待我們，有非常的情分；因為當時下雨，天氣又冷，就生火接待我們眾人。
3And 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那時， 保羅 拾起一捆柴，放在火上，有一條毒蛇，因為熱了出來，咬住他的手。
4And 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土人看見那毒蛇懸在他手上，就彼此說：「這人必是個兇手，雖然從海裏救上來，天理還不容他活着。」
5And he indeed shaking off the beast into the fire, suffered no harm.
5保羅 竟把那毒蛇甩在火裏，並沒有受傷。
6But 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土人想他必要腫起來，或是忽然仆倒死了；看了多時，見他無害，就轉念，說：「他是個神。」
7Now in these places were possessions of the chief man of the island, named Publius, who receiving us, for three days entertained us courteously.
7離那地方不遠，有田產是島長 部百流 的；他接納我們，盡情款待三日。
8And 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當時， 部百流 的父親患熱病和痢疾躺着。 保羅 進去， 為他 禱告，按手在他身上，治好了他。
9Which being done, all that had diseases in the island, came and were healed:
9從此，島上其餘的病人也來，得了醫治。
10Who also honoured us with many honours, and when we were to set sail, they laded us with such things as were necessary.
10他們又多方地尊敬我們；到了開船的時候，也把我們所需用的送到船上。
11And after three months, we sailed in a ship of Alexandria, that had wintered in the island, whose sign was the Castors.
11過了三個月，我們上了 亞歷山大 的船往前行；這船以「宙斯雙子」為記，是在那海島過了冬的。
12And when we were come to Syracusa, we tarried there three days.
12到了 敘拉古 ，我們停泊三日；
13From 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又從那裏繞行，來到 利基翁 。過了一天，起了南風，第二天就來到 部丟利 。
14Where, finding brethren, we were desired to tarry with them seven days: and so we went to Rome.
14在那裏遇見弟兄們，請我們與他們同住了七天。這樣，我們來到 羅馬 。
15And 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那裏的弟兄們一聽見我們的信息就出來，到 亞比烏 市和 三館 地方迎接我們。 保羅 見了他們，就感謝上帝，放心壯膽。
16And when we were come to Rome, Paul was suffered to dwell by himself, with a soldier that kept him.
16進了 羅馬 城， 保羅 蒙准和一個看守他的兵另住在一處。
17And 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過了三天， 保羅 請 猶太 人的首領來。他們來了，就對他們說：「弟兄們，我雖沒有做甚麼事干犯本國的百姓和我們祖宗的規條，卻被鎖綁，從 耶路撒冷 解在 羅馬 人的手裏。
18Who, when they had examined me, would have released me, for that there was no cause of death in me;
18他們審問了我，就願意釋放我；因為在我身上，並沒有該死的罪。
19But the Jews contradicting it, I was constrained to appeal unto Caesar; not that I had any thing to accuse my nation of.
19無奈 猶太 人不服，我不得已，只好上告於凱撒，並非有甚麼事要控告我本國的百姓。
20For 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因此，我請你們來見面說話，我原為 以色列 人所指望的，被這鍊子捆鎖。」
21But 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他們說：「我們並沒有接着從 猶太 來論你的信，也沒有弟兄到這裏來報給我們說你有甚麼不好處。
22But we desire to hear of thee what thou thinkest; for as concerning this sect, we know that it is every where contradicted.
22但我們願意聽你的意見如何；因為這教門，我們曉得是到處被毀謗的。」
23And 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他們和 保羅 約定了日子，就有許多人到他的寓處來。 保羅 從早到晚，對他們講論這事，證明上帝國 的道 ，引 摩西 的律法和先知的書，以耶穌的事勸勉他們。
24And some believed the things that were said; but some believed not.
24他所說的話，有信的，有不信的。
25And 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他們彼此不合，就散了；未散以先， 保羅 說了一句話，說：「聖靈藉先知 以賽亞 向你們祖宗所說的話是不錯的。
26Saying: 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他說： 你去告訴這百姓說： 你們聽是要聽見，卻不明白； 看是要看見，卻不曉得；
27For 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因為這百姓油蒙了心， 耳朵發沉， 眼睛閉着； 恐怕眼睛看見， 耳朵聽見， 心裏明白，回轉過來， 我就醫治他們。
28Be it known therefore to you, that this salvation of God is sent to the Gentiles, and they will hear it.
28所以你們當知道，上帝這救恩，如今傳給外邦人，他們也必聽受。」
29And when he had said these things, the Jews went out from him, having much reasoning among themselves.

30And he remained two whole years in his own hired lodging; and he received all that came in to him,
30保羅 在自己所租的房子裏住了足足兩年。凡來見他的人，他全都接待，
31Preaching the kingdom of God, and teaching the things which concern the Lord Jesus Christ, with all confidence, without prohibition.
31放膽傳講上帝國 的道 ，將主耶穌基督的事教導人，並沒有人禁止。
