King James Version
Translation: KJV
4And 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.Select Acts 28:4
5And he shook off the beast into the fire, and felt no harm.Select Acts 28:5
6Howbeit 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.Select Acts 28:6
7In 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.Select Acts 28:7
8And 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.Select Acts 28:8
