Acts 28:23 816 Acts 28:31
what thou thinkest: for as concerning this sect,
we knowe that euery where it is spoken against.
23 And when they had appointed him a day, there
came many vnto him into his lodging, to whom
he expounded testifying the kingdome of God,
and persuading them those things that concerne
Iesus, both out of the Lawe of Moses, and out
of the Prophets, from morning to night. 24 And
some were persuaded with ye things which were
spoken, and some beleeued not. 25 Therefore
when they agreed not among themselues, they
departed, after that Paul had spoken one word,
to wit, Well spake the holy Ghost by Esaias the
Prophet vnto our fathers, 26 Saying, Goe vnto this
people, and say, By hearing ye shall heare, and
shall not vnderstand, and seeing ye shall see, and
not perceiue. 27 For the heart of this people is
waxed fatte, and their eares are dull of hearing,
and with their eyes haue they winked, least they
shoulde see with their eyes, and heare with their
eares, and vnderstand with their heartes, and
should returne that I might heale them. 28 Be it
knowen therefore vnto you, that this saluation
of God is sent to the Gentiles, and they shall
heare it. 29 And when he had saide these things,
the Iewes departed, and had great reasoning
among themselues. 30 And Paul remained two
yeeres full in an house hired for himselfe, and
receiued all that came in vnto him, 31 Preaching
the kingdome of God, and teaching those things
which concerne the Lord Iesus Christ, with all
boldnesse of speache, without let.
