When Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks and put them on the fire, a viper came out because of the heat and fastened on his hand.

When 1the native people saw the creature hanging from his hand, they said to one another, 2"No doubt this man is a murderer. Though he has escaped from the sea, 3Justice[a] has not allowed him to live."

He, however, 4shook off the creature into the fire and suffered no harm.
