Acts 28:7-9

New International Reader's Version

⁷ Publius owned property nearby. He was the chief official on the island. He welcomed us to his home. For three days he took care of us. He treated us with kindness. ⁸ His father was sick in bed. The man suffered from fever and dysentery. So Paul went in to see him. Paul prayed for him. He placed his hands on him and healed him. ⁹ Then the rest of the sick people on the island came. They too were healed.
