Acts 28
1 Nígbà tí gbogbo wa sì yọ tan ni àwa tó mọ̀ pé, Mẹlita ni a ń pè erékùṣù náà.
And being got safe to land, they then knew that the island was called Melita.
2 Kì í ṣe oore díẹ̀ ni àwọn aláìgbédè náà ṣe fún wa. Nítorí ti wọ́n dáná, wọ́n sì gbà gbogbo wa sí ọ̀dọ̀ nítorí òjò ń rọ nígbà náà, àti nítorí òtútù.
And the barbarians treated us with uncommon humanity; for having kindled a fire, they brought us all to it, because of the present rain, and because of the cold.
3 Nígbà tí Paulu sì ṣa ìdí ìṣẹ́pẹ́ igi jọ, ti ó sì kó o sínú iná, paramọ́lẹ̀ kan ti inú oru-iná jáde, ó di mọ́ ọn ní ọwọ́.
Now, as Paul was gathering up a bundle of sticks, and laying them on the fire, a viper coming out of the heat, fastened upon his hand.
4 Bí àwọn aláìgbédè náà sì ti rí ẹranko olóró náà tí ó dì mọ́ ọn lọ́wọ́, wọ́n bá ara wọn sọ pé, “Dájúdájú apànìyàn ni ọkùnrin yìí, ẹni ti ó yọ nínú Òkun tan, ṣùgbọ́n tí ẹ̀san kò sì jẹ́ kí ó wà láààyè.”
And as soon as the barbarians saw the fierce animal hanging on his hand, they said one to another, This man is certainly a murderer, whom justice has not permitted to live, though he be saved from the sea.
5 Òun sì gbọn ẹranko náà sínú iná ohunkóhun kan kò sì ṣe é.
But he, shaking off the fierce animal into the fire, suffered no evil.
6 Ṣùgbọ́n wọn ń wòye ìgbà tí yóò wù, tàbí tí yóò sì ṣubú lulẹ̀ láti kú lójijì; nígbà tí wọ́n wò títí, tí wọn kò sì rí nǹkan kan kí ó ṣe é, wọ́n pa èrò wọn dà pé, òrìṣà kan ni ọkùnrin yìí.
However, they expected that he should have swollen, or suddenly have fallen down dead: and having waited a considerable time, and seeing no mischief befall him, changing their minds, they said he was a god.
7 Ní agbègbè ibẹ̀ ni ilé ọkùnrin ọlọ́lá erékùṣù náà wà, orúkọ ẹni tí a ń pè ní Pubiliu; ẹni tí ó ti ipa inú rere gbà wá sí ọ̀dọ̀ fún ọjọ́ mẹ́ta.
And in the neighborhood of that place, there was the estate of the chief of the island, whose name was Publius; who, having received us into his house, entertained us in a courteous manner for three days.
8 Ó sì ṣe, baba Pubiliu dùbúlẹ̀ àìsàn ibà àti ìgbẹ́-ọ̀rìn; ẹni tí Paulu wọlé tọ̀ lọ, tí ó sì gbàdúrà fún, nígbà tí ó sì fi ọwọ́ lé e, ó sì mú un láradá.
And so it was, that the father of Publius, being seized with a fever and bloody flux, was confined to his bed: to whom Paul going in, and having prayed, laid his hands on him, and healed him.
9 Nígbà tí èyí sì ṣetán, àwọn ìyókù tí ó ni ààrùn ni erékùṣù náà tọ̀ ọ́ wá, ó sì mú wọn láradá.
Now, therefore, when this miracle was wrought, the rest also, who had disorders, in the island, came, and were healed.
10 Wọ́n sì bu ọlá púpọ̀ fún wa; nígbà tí a ń lọ, wọ́n sì fún wa ní ohun púpọ̀ tí a nílò ní ọ̀nà àjò wa.
Who also honored us with great honors; and when we departed, put on board such things as were necessary.
11 Lẹ́yìn oṣù mẹ́ta, a wọ ọkọ̀ ojú omi kan èyí tí ó lo àkókò òtútù ní erékùṣù náà. Ó jẹ́ ọkọ̀ ojú omi ti Alekisandiria, èyí tí àmì rẹ̀ jẹ́ tí òrìṣà ìbejì ti Kasitoru òun Polukisu.
And after three months, we departed in a ship of Alexandria, that had wintered in the island, whose sign was Castor and Pollux.
12 Nígbà tí a sì gúnlẹ̀ ní Sirakusi, a gbé ibẹ̀ fún ọjọ́ mẹ́ta.
And being arrived at Syracuse, we continued there three days.
13 Láti ibẹ̀ nígbà tí a lọ yíká; a dé Regiomu: nígbà tí ó sì di ọjọ́ kejì, afẹ́fẹ́ gúúsù bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ní fẹ́, ní ọjọ́ kejì rẹ̀ a sì dé Puteoli.
From thence we coasted round, and came over against Rhegium. And after one day the south wind arising, we came, in two days, to Puteoli:
14 A sì rí àwọn arákùnrin kan níbẹ̀, tí wọ́n sì bẹ̀ wá láti bá wọn gbé fún ọjọ́ méje: bẹ́ẹ̀ ni a sì lọ sí ìhà Romu.
where we found brethren, and were entreated to stay with them seven days: and so we went for Rome.
15 Àwọn arákùnrin ibẹ̀ gbúròó pé a ń bọ̀, wọ́n sì rìnrìn àjò títí wọ́n fi dé Apii Foroni àti sí ilé èrò mẹ́ta láti pàdé wa: nígbà tí Paulu sì rí wọn, ó dúpẹ́ lọ́wọ́ Ọlọ́run, ó sì mú ọkàn le.
And from thence, the brethren, having heard of our affairs, came out to meet us, as far as Apii Forum, and the Three Taverns: whom, when Paul saw, he thanked God, and took courage.
16 Nígbà tí a sì dé Romu, olórí àwọn ọmọ-ogun fi àwọn òǹdè lé olórí ẹ̀ṣọ́ lọ́wọ́, ṣùgbọ́n wọ́n gba Paulu láààyè láti máa dágbé fún ara rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ọmọ-ogun tí ó ń ṣọ́ ọ.
And when we came to Rome, the centurion delivered the prisoners to the captain of the band: but Paul was permitted to dwell apart, in a house of his own, with a soldier that guarded him.
17 Lẹ́yìn ọjọ́ mẹ́ta, Paulu pe àwọn olórí Júù jọ. Nígbà tí wọ́n sì péjọ, ó wí fún wọn pé, “Ẹ̀yin ara, bí ó ti ṣe pé èmi kò ṣe ohun kan lòdì sí àwọn ènìyàn, tàbí sí àṣà àwọn baba wa, síbẹ̀ wọ́n fi mí lé àwọn ara Romu lọ́wọ́ ní òǹdè láti Jerusalẹmu wá.
And it came to pass, that, after three days, Paul called together those that were the chief of the Jews. And when they were come together, he said to them, Brethren, though I have done nothing contrary to the people, nor to our paternal customs, yet I was delivered a prisoner, from Jerusalem, into the hands of the Romans;
18 Nígbà tí wọ́n sì wádìí ọ̀ràn mi, wọ́n fẹ́ jọ̀wọ́ mi lọ́wọ́ lọ, nítorí tí wọn kò rí ẹ̀sùn kan tí ó tọ́ sí ikú pẹ̀lú mi.
who, having examined me, were willing to have set me at liberty, as there was no cause of death in me.
19 Ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí àwọn Júù sọ̀rọ̀ lòdì sí i, èyí sún mí láti fi ọ̀ràn náà lọ Kesari, kì í ṣe pe mo ní ẹ̀sùn kan láti fi kan àwọn ènìyàn mi.
But when the Jews opposed, I was obliged to appeal to Cesar; not as having anything of which to accuse my own nation.
20 Ǹjẹ́ nítorí ọ̀ràn yìí ni mo ṣe ránṣẹ́ pè yín, láti rí yín àti láti bá yín sọ̀rọ̀ nítorí pé, nítorí ìrètí Israẹli ni a ṣe fi ẹ̀wọ̀n yìí dè mí.”
For this reason, therefore, I entreated, that I might see and speak with you; for on account of the hope of Israel, I am bound with this chain.
21 Wọ́n sì wí fún un pé, “Àwa kò rí ìwé gbà láti Judea nítorí rẹ, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ẹnìkan nínú àwọn arákùnrin tí ó ti ibẹ̀ wá kò ròyìn, tàbí kí ó sọ̀rọ̀ ibi kan sí ọ.
And they said to him, We have neither received letters from Judea concerning you; nor have any of the brethren, that have come hither, related, or said, any evil concerning you.
22 Ṣùgbọ́n àwa ń fẹ́ gbọ́ lẹ́nu rẹ ohun tí ìwọ rò nítorí bí ó ṣe ti ẹgbẹ́ ìlànà yìí ní, àwa mọ̀ pé, níbi gbogbo ni a ń sọ̀rọ̀ lòdì sí i.”
But we desire to hear from you, what you think; for as concerning this sect, we know that it everywhere spoken against.
23 Àwọn fi ẹnu kò lórí ọjọ́ tí wọn yóò ṣe ìpàdé pẹ̀lú Paulu, ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ wọn ni ó tọ̀ ọ́ wa ni ilé àgbàwọ̀ rẹ̀; àwọn ẹni tí òun sọ àsọyé ọ̀rọ̀ ìjọba Ọlọ́run fún, ó ń yí wọn padà nípa ti Jesu láti inú òfin Mose àti àwọn wòlíì, láti òwúrọ̀ títí ó fi di àṣálẹ́.
And having appointed him a day, many came to him at his lodging; to whom he expounded, testifying the kingdom of God, and persuading them of the things that relate to Jesus; both from the law of Moses and the prophets, from morning till evening.
24 Àwọn ẹlòmíràn gba ohun tí ó wí gbọ́, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn ẹlòmíràn kò sì gbà á gbọ́.
And some were persuaded by the things which were spoken; and some believed not.
25 Nígbà tí ohùn wọn kò ṣọ̀kan láàrín ara wọn, wọ́n túká, lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí Paulu sọ̀rọ̀ kan pé, “Ẹ̀mí Mímọ́ sọ òtítọ́ fún àwọn baba yín nígbà tí ó sọ láti ẹnu wòlíì Isaiah wí pé:
And disagreeing with each other, they broke up the assembly: Paul saying this one word, Surely, well did the Holy Spirit speak, by Isaiah the prophet, to our fathers,
26 “‘Tọ àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí lọ, kí ó sì wí pé, “Ní gbígbọ́ ẹ̀yin yóò gbọ́, kì yóò sì yé e yín; à ti ní rí rí ẹ̀yin yóò rí, ẹ̀yin kì yóò sí wòye.”
when he said, "Go to this people and say, Hearing you will hear, and will not understand; and seeing you will see, and will not perceive:
27 Nítorí ti àyà àwọn ènìyàn yìí yigbì, etí wọn sì wúwo láti fi gbọ́, ojú wọn ni wọn sì ti di. Nítorí kí wọn má ba à fi ojú wọn rí, kí wọn kí ó má ba à fi etí wọn gbọ́, àti kí wọn má ba à fi ọkàn wọn mọ̀, kí wọn kí ó má ba à yípadà, àti kí èmi má ba à mú wọn láradá.’
for the heart of this people is become gross, and with their ears they hear heavily; and they have drawn their eyes together, lest 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."
28 “Ǹjẹ́ kí ẹ̀yin mọ́ èyí pé, a rán ìgbàlà Ọlọ́run sí àwọn kèfèrí wọ́n ó sì gbọ́!”
Therefore be it known to you, that the salvation of God is sent to the Gentiles, and they will hear it.
And when he had said these things, the Jews departed, having great debates among themselves.
30 Paulu sì gbé ilé àgbàwọ̀ rẹ̀ lọ́dún méjì gbáko, ó sì ń gbà gbogbo àwọn tí ó wọlé tọ̀ ọ́ wá.
But Paul continued two whole years in his own hired house, and received all who came to him;
31 Ó ń wàásù ìjọba Ọlọ́run, ó ń fi ìgboyà kọ́ni ní àwọn ohun tí i ṣe ti Jesu Kristi Olúwa, ẹnìkan kò si dá a lẹ́kun.
announcing the kingdom of God, and teaching those things which relate to the Lord Jesus Christ, with all freedom of speech, and without any restraint.
