7. In the vicinity of that place were lands belonging to a man named Publius, the chief of the island. He welcomed us and received us cordially as his guests for three days.
8. It so happened that the father of Publius was sick with a fever and dysentery. Paul visited him and, after praying, laid his hands on him and healed him.
9. After this had taken place, the rest of the sick on the island came to Paul and were cured.
10. They paid us great honor and when we eventually set sail they brought us the provisions we needed.
11. Three months later we set sail on a ship that had wintered at the island. It was an Alexandrian ship with the Dioscuri as its figurehead.
12. We put in at Syracuse and stayed there three days,
13. and from there we sailed round the coast and arrived at Rhegium. After a day, a south wind came up and in two days we reached Puteoli.
14. There we found some brothers and were urged to stay with them for seven days. And thus we came to Rome.
