Acts 28

Ary rehefa voavonjy izahay, vao fantatray fa Melita no anaran'ilay nosy.

And when they were escaped, then they knew that the island was called Melita.

Ary tsy kely ny soa nasehon'ny tompon-tany taminay; fa namelona afo izy ka nandray tsara anay rehetra, satria nilatsaka tamin'izay ny ranonorana, sady nangatsiaka ny andro.

And the barbarous people shewed us no little kindness: for they kindled a fire, and received us every one, because of the present rain, and because of the cold.

Dia namory kitay hazo iray trotroana Paoly ka nanohoka izany teo amin'ny afo; ary nisy menarana nivoaka avy tamin'ny afo ka niraikitra tamin'ny tànany.

And when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks, and laid them on the fire, there came a viper out of the heat, and fastened on his hand.

Ary raha hitan'ny tompon-tany ny biby niraikitra tamin'ny tànany, dia niresaka hoe izy: Mpamono olona tokoa io lehilahy io, ka na dia voavonjy tamin'ny ranomasina aza izy, tsy avelan'ny todin'aina ho velona.

And 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.

Fa nakifiny ho eo amin'ny afo ilay biby, ka tsy nisy naninona izy na dia kely akory aza.

And he shook off the beast into the fire, and felt no harm.

Ary ny olona kosa nanampo azy hivonto, na hikarapoka ho faty tampoka; fa rehefa niandry ela izy ka nahita fa tsy nisy na inona na inona nanjo an'i Paoly, dia niova saina izy ka nanao hoe: andriamanitra io.

Howbeit 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.

Ary teo akaikin'io dia nisy sahan'i Popilo, mpanapaka ny nosy, izay nandray anay ka nampiantrano anay tsara hateloana.

In 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.

Ary nararin'ny tazo sady nivalan-drà ny rain'i Popilo; ary Paoly niditra teo aminy ka nivavaka sady nametra-tanana taminy, dia nahasitrana azy.

And 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.

Ary rehefa vita izany, dia tonga koa ny sasany izay narary teo amin'ny nosy, ka dia sitrana.

So when this was done, others also, which had diseases in the island, came, and were healed:

Ary voninahitra be no nomen'ny olona anay; ary rehefa handeha izahay, dia novatsiany tsara.

Who also honoured us with many honours; and when we departed, they laded us with such things as were necessary.

Ary rehefa afaka telo volana, dia niondrana izahay tamin'ny sambon'Aleksandria, izay efa nandany ny ririnina teo amin'izany nosy izany sady nisy sarin'ny Zaza Kambana.

And after three months we departed in a ship of Alexandria, which had wintered in the isle, whose sign was Castor and Pollux.

Ary rehefa nitody tany Syrakosa izahay, dia nitoetra teo hateloana.

And landing at Syracuse, we tarried there three days.

Ary nony niala teo izahay, dia nisompirana nankany Regioma; ary rehefa afaka indray andro, dia nifofofofo avy any atsimo ny rivotra, koa nony ampitso dia tonga tao Potioly izahay;

And from thence we fetched a compass, and came to Rhegium: and after one day the south wind blew, and we came the next day to Puteoli:

tao no nahitanay ny rahalahy sasany, ary izy niangavy anay hitoetra tao aminy hafitoana. Ary toy izany no nandrosoanay nankany Roma.

Where we found brethren, and were desired to tarry with them seven days: and so we went toward Rome.

Ary nony nahare ny dianay ny rahalahy tany, dia tonga izy nitsena anay hatrany amin'ny Tsenan'Apio sy ny Tranombahiny Telo; raha nahita azy Paoly, dia nisaotra an'Andriamanitra izy ka nahazo toky.

And from thence, when the brethren heard of us, they came to meet us as far as Appii forum, and The three taverns: whom when Paul saw, he thanked God, and took courage.

Ary rehefa tonga tany Roma izahay, Paoly dia navelany hitoetra mitokana teo amin'ny miaramila anankiray izay niambina azy.

And when we came to Rome, the centurion delivered the prisoners to the captain of the guard: but Paul was suffered to dwell by himself with a soldier that kept him.

Ary rehefa afaka hateloana, dia nampanalain'i Paoly hiangona izay lohandohany tamin'ny Jiosy; ary rehefa niangona ireo, dia hoy izy taminy: Ry rahalahy, izaho dia mpifatotra avy tany Jerosalema natolotra teo an-tànan'ny Romana, na dia tsy diso tamin'ny firenentsika aza, na tamin'ny fanaon-drazana;

And it came to pass, that after three days Paul called the chief of the Jews together: and when they were come together, he said unto them, Men and brethren, though I have committed nothing against the people, or customs of our fathers, yet was I delivered prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans.

ary rehefa nanadina ahy mafy ireo, dia saiky nandefa ahy ihany, satria tsy nisy nataoko izay tokony hahafaty ahy.

Who, when they had examined me, would have let me go, because there was no cause of death in me.

Fa raha notoherin'ny Jiosy izany, dia tery aho ka nilaza fa handahatra amin'i Kaisara, nefa tsy mba toy ny manana teny hiampangako ny fireneko tsy akory.

But when the Jews spake against it, I was constrained to appeal unto Cæsar; not that I had ought to accuse my nation of.

Ary izany zavatra izany no nampanalako anareo, hahitako anareo sy hiresahako aminareo; fa noho ny fanantenan'ny Isiraely no ifatorako amin'ity gadra ity.

For this cause therefore have I called for you, to see you, and to speak with you: because that for the hope of Israel I am bound with this chain.

Ary hoy izy ireo taminy; Izahay tsy mbola nahazo taratasy avy tany Jodia milaza anao, ary tsy mbola nisy rahalahy izay nankaty nanambara na nilaza ratsy anao;

And they said unto him, We neither received letters out of Judæa concerning thee, neither any of the brethren that came shewed or spake any harm of thee.

fa tianay ho re aminao izay hevitrao; fa ny amin'izany antoko izany dia fantatray fa efa ratsy laza eny tontolo eny izy.

But we desire to hear of thee what thou thinkest: for as concerning this sect, we know that every where it is spoken against.

Ary rehefa nanao fotoana taminy ireo, dia maro no nankeo aminy tao an-trano nitoerany; ary izy nilaza sy nanambara taminy ny fanjakan'Andriamanitra hatramin'ny maraina ka hatramin'ny hariva, ary ny teny eo amin'ny lalàn'i Mosesy sy ny mpaminany no nitaomany azy hino an'i Jesosy.

And when they had appointed him a day, there came many to him into his lodging; to whom he expounded and testified the kingdom of God, persuading them concerning Jesus, both out of the law of Moses, and out of the prophets, from morning till evening.

Ary ny sasany nino izay nolazainy, fa ny sasany kosa tsy mba nino.

And some believed the things which were spoken, and some believed not.

Ary raha tsy niray saina ireo dia niala, rehefa nanao teny indraim-bava Paoly hoe: Marina izay nampilazain'ny Fanahy Masina an'Isaia mpaminany tamin'ny razanareo

And when they agreed not among themselves, they departed, after that Paul had spoken one word, Well spake the Holy Ghost by Esaias the prophet unto our fathers,

manao hoe: Mandehana any amin'ity firenena ity ianao, ka lazao hoe: Mba hahare mandrakariva ihany ianareo, fa tsy hahalala; Ary mba hijery mandrakariva ihany ianareo, fa tsy hahita;

Saying, Go unto this people, and say, Hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and not perceive:

Fa efa adala ny fon'ireo olona ireo, ary efa lalodalovana ny sofiny, ary efa nakimpiny ny masony, Fandrao hahita ny masony, sy handre ny sofiny, ary hahalala ny fony, dia hibebaka izy, ka hahasitrana azy Aho. (Isa. 6. 9, 10).

For the heart of this people is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes have they closed; 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.

Koa aoka ho fantatrareo fa izao famonjen'Andriamanitra izao dia nampitondraina ho any amin'ny jentilisa, ary izy hihaino azy.

Be it known therefore unto you, that the salvation of God is sent unto the Gentiles, and that they will hear it.

And when he had said these words, the Jews departed, and had great reasoning among themselves.

And Paul dwelt two whole years in his own hired house, and received all that came in unto him,

Preaching the kingdom of God, and teaching those things which concern the Lord Jesus Christ, with all confidence, no man forbidding him.
