Acts 28:3-5

Revised Geneva Translation

³ And when Paul had gathered a number of sticks, and laid them on the fire, a viper came out of the heat and fastened on his hand.

⁴ Now when the locals saw the wild beast hanging on his hand, they said among themselves, “This man is surely a murderer. For though he has escaped the sea, vengeance has still not allowed to live.”

⁵ But he shook off the beast (into the fire) and felt no harm.
