7Nearby stood an estate belonging to Publius, the chief official of the island. He welcomed us and entertained us hospitably for three days.
8The father of Publius was sick in bed, suffering from fever and dysentery. Paul went in to see him, and after praying and placing his hands on him, he healed the man.
9After this had happened, the rest of the sick on the island came and were cured as well.
10The islanders honored us in many ways and supplied our needs when we were ready to sail.
— Acts 28:7-10
