< Acts 27 >

1 When it was determined that we should sail for Italy, they delivered Paul and certain other prisoners to a centurion named Julius, of the Augustan band.
When now was determined sailing our to Italy, they were delivering both Paul and certain other prisoners to a centurion named Julius of the cohort of Augustus.
2 Embarking in a ship of Adramyttium, which was about to sail to places on the coast of Asia, we put to sea, Aristarchus, a Macedonian of Thessalonica being with us.
Having boarded then on a ship of Adramyttium (being about *N+kO) to sail (to *no) the along Asia places we set sail — while was being with us Aristarchus a Macedonian of Thessalonica.
3 The next day, we touched at Sidon. Julius treated Paul kindly and gave him permission to go to his friends and refresh himself.
On the then next [day] we landed at Sidon, Considerately then Julius Paul was treating he allowed [him] to [his] friends (may be going *N+kO) care to receive.
4 Putting to sea from there, we sailed under the lee of Cyprus, because the winds were contrary.
And from there And from there having set sail we sailed under Cyprus because of the winds being contrary,
5 When we had sailed across the sea which is off Cilicia and Pamphylia, we came to Myra, a city of Lycia.
And then along Cilicia and Pamphylia having sailed across [the sea] we came to Myra of Lycia.
6 There the centurion found a ship of Alexandria sailing for Italy, and he put us on board.
And there And there having found the centurion a ship of Alexandria sailing to Italy he placed us into it.
7 When we had sailed slowly many days, and had come with difficulty opposite Cnidus, the wind not allowing us further, we sailed under the lee of Crete, opposite Salmone.
For many now days sailing slowly and with difficulty having arrived off Cnidus not is permitting us the wind we sailed under Crete off Salmone,
8 With difficulty sailing along it we came to a certain place called Fair Havens, near the city of Lasea.
With difficulty and coasting along it we came to a place certain being called Fair Havens, to which near [the] city was of Lasea.
9 When much time had passed and the voyage was now dangerous because the Fast had now already gone by, Paul admonished them
When much now time having passed and is being already dangerous the voyage because of even the Fast already being over, was admonishing [them] Paul
10 and said to them, “Sirs, I perceive that the voyage will be with injury and much loss, not only of the cargo and the ship, but also of our lives.”
saying to them; Men, I understand that with disaster and much loss not only of the (burden *N+kO) and of the ship but also the lives of us ensuing to be the voyage.
11 But the centurion gave more heed to the master and to the owner of the ship than to those things which were spoken by Paul.
But the centurion by the pilot and by the ship owner rather was persuaded than by the [things] by Paul spoken.
12 Because the haven was not suitable to winter in, the majority advised going to sea from there, if by any means they could reach Phoenix and winter there, which is a port of Crete, looking southwest and northwest.
Unsuitable now the harbor being to winter in the majority reached a decision to set sail (from there, *N+kO) if somehow they would be able having arrived at Phoenix to winter [there] — a harbor of Crete looking toward [the] southwest and toward [the] northwest.
13 When the south wind blew softly, supposing that they had obtained their purpose, they weighed anchor and sailed along Crete, close to shore.
When was blowing gently now a south wind having thought the purpose to have obtained, having weighed [anchor] very near they were coasting along Crete.
14 But before long, a stormy wind beat down from shore, which is called Euroclydon.
After not long however it threw down from it a wind tempestuous which is being called [the] Northeaster.
15 When the ship was caught and couldn’t face the wind, we gave way to it and were driven along.
When was being seized then the ship and not being able to face to the wind having given way we were driven along.
16 Running under the lee of a small island called Clauda, we were able, with difficulty, to secure the boat.
An Island then certain having run under being called (Cauda *N+KO) we were able with difficulty control to gain of the lifeboat,
17 After they had hoisted it up, they used cables to help reinforce the ship. Fearing that they would run aground on the Syrtis sand bars, they lowered the sea anchor, and so were driven along.
which having taken up supports they were using undergirding the ship; Fearing then lest into the sandbars of Syrtis they may fall having lowered the gear, thus they were driven along.
18 As we labored exceedingly with the storm, the next day they began to throw things overboard.
Violently now being storm-tossed of us on the next [day] a jettison of cargo they were making;
19 On the third day, they threw out the ship’s tackle with their own hands.
and on the third [day] with [their] own hands the tackle of the ship (they cast away; *N+KO)
20 When neither sun nor stars shone on us for many days, and no small storm pressed on us, all hope that we would be saved was now taken away.
Neither now sun nor stars appearing for many days, tempest and no small afflicted [us] from then on was abandoned hope all of being saved us.
21 When they had been long without food, Paul stood up in the middle of them and said, “Sirs, you should have listened to me, and not have set sail from Crete and have gotten this injury and loss.
Much (also *N+kO) time without food there being at that time having stood up Paul in midst of them he said; It was necessary [for you] indeed, O men, having been obedient to me not to have set sail from Crete, to have incurred then disaster this and loss.
22 Now I exhort you to cheer up, for there will be no loss of life among you, but only of the ship.
And yet now I exhort you to keep up your courage; loss for of life none there will be from among you only of the ship.
23 For there stood by me this night an angel, belonging to the God whose I am and whom I serve,
Stood by for me this night of God whose am (I myself *n) whom and I serve an angel
24 saying, ‘Don’t be afraid, Paul. You must stand before Caesar. Behold, God has granted you all those who sail with you.’
saying; Not do fear, Paul, to Caesar you it behooves to stand before, And behold has granted to you God all those sailing with you.
25 Therefore, sirs, cheer up! For I believe God, that it will be just as it has been spoken to me.
Therefore take courage men; I believe for in God that thus it will be according to the way it has been said to me.
26 But we must run aground on a certain island.”
Upon an island however certain it behooves us to fall.
27 But when the fourteenth night had come, as we were driven back and forth in the Adriatic Sea, about midnight the sailors surmised that they were drawing near to some land.
When then [the] fourteenth night had come being driven about of us in the Adriatic, toward [the] middle of the night were sensing the sailors to be drawing near some to them land;
28 They took soundings and found twenty fathoms. After a little while, they took soundings again, and found fifteen fathoms.
And having taken soundings they found fathoms twenty, A little then having gone farther and again having taken soundings they found fathoms fifteen;
29 Fearing that we would run aground on rocky ground, they let go four anchors from the stern, and wished for daylight.
Fearing then lest perhaps (on *N+kO) rocky places (we may fall, *NK+O) out of [the] stern having cast anchors four they were praying for day to come.
30 As the sailors were trying to flee out of the ship and had lowered the boat into the sea, pretending that they would lay out anchors from the bow,
Of the then sailors seeking to flee out of the ship and having let down the lifeboat into the sea under pretense as from [the] bow anchors being about to cast out
31 Paul said to the centurion and to the soldiers, “Unless these stay in the ship, you can’t be saved.”
said Paul to the centurion and to the soldiers; Only unless these shall remain in the ship, [then] you yourselves to be saved not you are able.
32 Then the soldiers cut away the ropes of the boat and let it fall off.
Then cut away the soldiers the ropes of the lifeboat and allowed her to fall away.
33 While the day was coming on, Paul begged them all to take some food, saying, “Today is the fourteenth day that you wait and continue fasting, having taken nothing.
Until then that day was about to come, was urging Paul all to partake of food saying; [the] fourteenth today [is] day watching without eating you continue nothing having taken.
34 Therefore I beg you to take some food, for this is for your safety; for not a hair will perish from any of your heads.”
Therefore I exhort you (to partake *N+kO) of food; this indeed for of you preservation is; not [one] for of you a hair (of *N+kO) the head (will perish. *N+KO)
35 When he had said this and had taken bread, he gave thanks to God in the presence of all; then he broke it and began to eat.
Having said now these things and having taken bread he gave thanks to God before all, and having broken [it] he began to eat.
36 Then they all cheered up, and they also took food.
Encouraged then having been all also themselves they took food;
37 In all, we were two hundred seventy-six souls on the ship.
(we were *N+kO) then the altogether souls in the boat (two hundred *NK+O) seventy six.
38 When they had eaten enough, they lightened the ship, throwing out the wheat into the sea.
Having been filled then with food they were lightening the ship casting out the wheat into the sea.
39 When it was day, they didn’t recognize the land, but they noticed a certain bay with a beach, and they decided to try to drive the ship onto it.
When now day it was, the land not they were recognizing, a bay however certain they were noticing having a shore, on which (they were determining *N+kO) if (they would be able, *NK+o) (to drive [aground] *NK+O) the ship.
40 Casting off the anchors, they left them in the sea, at the same time untying the rudder ropes. Hoisting up the foresail to the wind, they made for the beach.
And the anchors having cut away they were leaving [them] in the sea, at the same time having loosened the ropes of the rudders And having hoisted the foresail to the blowing [wind] they were making for the shore.
41 But coming to a place where two seas met, they ran the vessel aground. The bow struck and remained immovable, but the stern began to break up by the violence of the waves.
Having fallen however into a place between two seas they ran aground the vessel; and the indeed bow having stuck fast it remained immovable, however the stern was being broken up by the violence of the waves.
42 The soldiers’ counsel was to kill the prisoners, so that none of them would swim out and escape.
Of the now soldiers [the] plan was that the prisoners they may kill, lest anyone having swum away (may escape. *N+kO)
43 But the centurion, desiring to save Paul, stopped them from their purpose, and commanded that those who could swim should throw themselves overboard first to go toward the land;
But the centurion desiring to save Paul hindered them of the purpose, he commanded then those being able to swim having cast [themselves] off first on the land to go out,
44 and the rest should follow, some on planks and some on other things from the ship. So they all escaped safely to the land.
and the rest some indeed on boards, some however on things from the ship. And thus it came to pass that all being saved to the land.
