Деяния святых апостолов 28
1 Спасени же бывше иже с Павлом от корабля, тогда разумеша, яко остров Мелит нарицается.
When we had escaped, then they learned that the island was called Malta.
2 Варвари же творяху не малое милосердие нам: возгнещше бо огнь, прияша всех нас, за настоящий дождь и зиму.
The natives showed us uncommon kindness; for they kindled a fire and received us all, because of the present rain and because of the cold.
3 Сгромаждшу же Павлу рождия множество и возложившу на огнь, ехидна от теплоты изшедши, секну в руку его.
But when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks and laid them on the fire, a viper came out because of the heat and fastened on his hand.
4 И егда видеша варвари висящу змию от руки его, глаголаху друг ко другу: всяко убийца есть человек сей, егоже спасена от моря суд Божий жити не остави.
When the natives saw the creature hanging from his hand, they said to one another, “No doubt this man is a murderer, whom, though he has escaped from the sea, yet Justice has not allowed to live.”
5 Той же убо, оттряс змию во огнь, ничтоже зло пострада.
However he shook off the creature into the fire, and wasn’t harmed.
6 Они же чаяху его имуща возгоретися, или пасти внезапу мертва: на мнозе же того чающым и ничтоже зло в нем бывшее видящым, претворшеся, глаголаху Бога того быти.
But they expected that he would have swollen or fallen down dead suddenly, but when they watched for a long time and saw nothing bad happen to him, they changed their minds and said that he was a god.
7 Окрест же места онаго бяху села перваго во острове, именем Поплиа, иже приимь нас, три дни любезне учреди.
Now in the neighborhood of that place were lands belonging to the chief man of the island, named Publius, who received us and courteously entertained us for three days.
8 Бысть же отцу Поплиеву огнем и водным трудом одержиму лежати: к немуже Павел вшед, и помолився, и возложь руце свои нань, исцели его.
The father of Publius lay sick of fever and dysentery. Paul entered in to him, prayed, and laying his hands on him, healed him.
9 Сему же бывшу, и прочии имущии недуги во острове том прихождаху и исцелевахуся:
Then when this was done, the rest also who had diseases in the island came and were cured.
10 иже и многими честьми почтоша нас, и отвозящымся нам яже на потребу вложиша.
They also honored us with many honors; and when we sailed, they put on board the things that we needed.
11 По триех же месяцех отвезохомся в корабли Александрийстем, подписаном Диоскуры, презимевшем во острове,
After three months, we set sail in a ship of Alexandria which had wintered in the island, whose figurehead was “The Twin Brothers.”
12 и доплывше в Сиракусы, пребыхом дни три:
Touching at Syracuse, we stayed there three days.
13 оттуду же отплывше, приидохом в Ригию, и по единем дни возвеявшу югу, во вторый день приидохом в Потиолы,
From there we circled around and arrived at Rhegium. After one day, a south wind sprang up, and on the second day we came to Puteoli,
14 идеже обретше братию, умолени быхом от них пребыти дний седмь: и тако в Рим идохом.
where we found brothers, and were entreated to stay with them for seven days. So we came to Rome.
15 И от тамо братия, слышавше яже о нас, изыдоша во сретение наше даже до Аппиева торга и триех корчемниц: ихже видев Павел и благодарив Бога, прият дерзновение.
From there the brothers, when they heard of us, came to meet us as far as The Market of Appius and The Three Taverns. When Paul saw them, he thanked God and took courage.
16 Егда же приидохом в Рим, сотник предаде узники воеводе, Павлу же повеле пребывати о себе, с соблюдающим его воином.
When we entered into Rome, the centurion delivered the prisoners to the captain of the guard, but Paul was allowed to stay by himself with the soldier who guarded him.
17 Бысть же по днех триех, созва Павел сущыя от Иудеев первыя: сшедшымся же им, глаголаше к ним: мужие братие, аз ничтоже противно сотворив людем или обычаем отеческим, узник от Иерусалимлян предан бых в руце Римляном,
After three days Paul called together those who were the leaders of the Jews. When they had come together, he said to them, “I, brothers, though I had done nothing against the people or the customs of our fathers, still was delivered prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans,
18 иже разсудивше яже о мне, хотяху пустити, зане ни едина вина смертная бысть во мне:
who, when they had examined me, desired to set me free, because there was no cause of death in me.
19 сопротив же глаголющым Иудеем, нужда ми бысть нарещи кесаря, не яко язык мой имея в чесом оклеветати:
But when the Jews spoke against it, I was constrained to appeal to Caesar, not that I had anything about which to accuse my nation.
20 сея ради убо вины умолих вас, да вижду и беседую: надежды бо ради Израилевы веригами сими обложен есмь.
For this cause therefore I asked to see you and to speak with you. For because of the hope of Israel I am bound with this chain.”
21 Они же к нему реша: мы ниже писания о тебе прияхом от Иудей, ниже пришед кто от братий возвести или глагола что о тебе зло:
They said to him, “We neither received letters from Judea concerning you, nor did any of the brothers come here and report or speak any evil of you.
22 молимся же, да слышим от тебе, яже мудрствуеши: о ереси бо сей ведомо есть нам, яко всюду сопротив глаголемо есть.
But we desire to hear from you what you think. For, as concerning this sect, it is known to us that everywhere it is spoken against.”
23 Уставивше же ему день, приидоша к нему в странноприемницу множайшии, имже сказаше свидетелствуя Царствие Божие и уверяя их, яже о Иисусе, от закона Моисеова и пророк, от утра даже до вечера.
When they had appointed him a day, many people came to him at his lodging. He explained to them, testifying about God’s Kingdom, and persuading them concerning Jesus, both from the law of Moses and from the prophets, from morning until evening.
24 И ови убо вероваху глаголемым, ови же не вероваху.
Some believed the things which were spoken, and some disbelieved.
25 Несогласни же суще друг ко другу, отхождаху, рекшу Павлу глагол един, яко добре Дух Святый глагола Исаием пророком ко отцем нашым,
When they didn’t agree among themselves, they departed after Paul had spoken one message: “The Holy Spirit spoke rightly through Isaiah the prophet to our fathers,
26 глаголя: иди к людем сим и рцы: слухом услышите и не имате разумети: и видяще узрите и не имате видети:
saying, ‘Go to this people and say, in hearing, you will hear, but will in no way understand. In seeing, you will see, but will in no way perceive.
27 одебеле бо сердце людий сих, и ушима тяжко слышаша, и очи свои смежиша, да не како увидят очима, и ушима услышат, и сердцем уразумеют, и обратятся, и исцелю их.
For this people’s heart has grown callous. Their ears are dull of hearing. Their eyes they have closed. Lest they should see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their heart, and would turn again, then I would heal them.’
28 Ведомо убо да будет вам, яко языком послася спасение Божие, сии и услышат.
“Be it known therefore to you that the salvation of God is sent to the nations, and they will listen.”
29 И сия тому рекшу, отидоша Иудее, многое имуще между собою состязание.
When he had said these words, the Jews departed, having a great dispute among themselves.
30 Пребысть же Павел два лета исполнь своею мздою (цела два лета на своем иждивении) и приимаше вся приходящыя к нему,
Paul stayed two whole years in his own rented house and received all who were coming to him,
31 проповедуя Царствие Божие и учя яже о Господе нашем Иисусе Христе со всяким дерзновением невозбранно.
preaching God’s Kingdom and teaching the things concerning the Lord Jesus Christ with all boldness, without hindrance.
