Acts 27
1 And when it was determined that we should sail into Italy, they delivered Paul and certain other prisoners unto one named Julius, a centurion of Augustus' band.
Awo bwe kyasalibwawo tusaabale ku nnyanja tugende mu Italiya, Pawulo n’abasibe abalala ne bakwasibwa omuserikale omukulu w’ekitongole ky’abaserikale ekikumi, erinnya lye Yuliyo, eyali ow’omu kibinja kya Kayisaali Agusito.
2 And entering into a ship of Adramyttium, we launched, meaning to sail by the coasts of Asia; one Aristarchus, a Macedonian of Thessalonica, being with us.
Ekyombo eky’e Adulamutiyo ekyali kinaatera okuseeyeya ku lubalama lwa Asiya; ne tusitula nga ne Alisutaluuko Omumakedoni ow’e Sessaloniika ali naffe.
3 And the next day we touched at Sidon. And Julius courteously pleaded Paul, and gave him liberty to go unto his friends to refresh himself.
Ku lunaku olwaddirira ne tugoba ku mwalo gw’e Sidoni, Yuliyo n’akolera Pawulo eky’ekisa n’amukkiriza n’agenda ku lukalu eri mikwano gye ne bamusembeza.
4 And when we had launched from thence, we sailed under Cyprus, because the winds were contrary.
Bwe twasitula, empewo n’etufuluma mu maaso, ne tusaabala ne tuyita ku mabbali ga Kupulo.
5 And when we had sailed over the sea of Cilicia and Pamphylia, we came to Myra, a city of Lycia.
Bwe twamala okuva mu nnyanja wakati ne tuyita ku lubalama lwa Kirukiya ne Panfuliya, ne tugoba ku mwalo Mula ogw’e Lukiya.
6 And there the centurion found a ship of Alexandria sailing into Italy; and he put us therein.
Eyo omukulu w’ekitongole n’alabawo ekyombo ekyali kiva mu Alegezanderiya nga kiraga mu Italiya, n’atusaabaza omwo.
7 And when we had sailed slowly many days, and scarce were come opposite to Cnidus, the wind not suffering us, we sailed under Crete, opposite to Salmone;
Twamala ennaku nnyingi ng’ennyanja yeefuukudde, nga tugenda mpola, ne tusemberera olubalama lw’e Kunido mu buzibu bungi naye ne tuteeyongerayo mu maaso ng’omuyaga gutuyitiridde, ne tusala ne tugenda ku luuyi olumu olwa Kuleete nga tuva ku mwalo gwa Salumone.
8 And, hardly passing it, came unto a place which is called The fair havens; nigh unto which was the city of Lasea.
Ne tusaabala mu buzibu bungi ne tuyita ku lubalama okumpi n’ekifo ekiyitibwa Emyalo Emirungi ekiriraanye ekibuga Laseya.
9 Now when much time was spent, and when sailing was now dangerous, because the fast was now already past, Paul admonished them,
Bwe waayitawo ebbanga ddene, n’obudde nga butandise okwonoonekera ddala, era nga kyakabi okwolekera olugendo, ate era nga n’ekisiibo kyayita dda, Pawulo n’abawa amagezi,
10 And said unto them, Sirs, I perceive that this voyage will be with hurt and much damage, not only of the lading and ship, but also of our lives.
ng’agamba nti, “Bassebo, ndaba nti olugendo lujja kubeeramu emitawaana n’okufiirwa kungi, si kwa bintu byokka n’ekyombo, naye n’obulamu bwaffe.”
11 Nevertheless the centurion believed the master and the owner of the ship, more than those things which were spoken by Paul.
Naye omukulu w’ekitongole n’awalirizibwa okugondera amagezi g’omugoba w’ekyombo ne nannyini kyo okusinga Pawulo bye yayogera.
12 And because the haven was not commodious to winter in, the more part advised to depart thence also, if by any means they might attain to Phenice, and there to winter; which is an haven of Crete, and lies toward the south west and north west.
Olw’okubanga omwalo tegwali mulungi okwewogomamu mu kiseera ky’obutiti, abasinga obungi kyebaava basemba eky’okweyongerayo, nga basuubira nti obanga kisoboka tutuuke e Foyiniiki, we baba bamala ekiseera eky’obutiti ku mwalo gwa Kuleete ogwali gutunuulidde obukiikaddyo n’ebugwanjuba, n’obukiikakkono n’ebugwanjuba.
13 And when the south wind blew softly, supposing that they had obtained their purpose, loosing thence, they sailed close by Crete.
Mu kiseera ekyo empewo n’efuluma mu bukiikaddyo nga nzikakkamu, ne balowooza nti kye baali bagenderera bakifunye ne basikayo ennanga ne bagendera kumpi n’olukalu lwa Kuleete.
14 But not long after there arose against it a tempestuous wind, called Euroclydon.
Naye waali tewannayita bbanga ddene, omuyaga ogw’amaanyi ennyo oguyitibwa Ewulakulo, ne gukunta n’amaanyi mangi nnyo.
15 And when the ship was caught, and could not bear up into the wind, we let her drive.
Ne gufuuwa ekyombo ne kiva mu kkubo lyakyo, ne kitayinza kwolekera muyaga, ne tuguleka ne gututwala nga bwe gwayagala.
16 And running under a certain island which is called Clauda, we had much work to come by the boat:
Oluvannyuma ne tuyita ku mabbali g’akazinga akayitibwa Kawuda, mu kutegana,
17 Which when they had taken up, they used support cables, undergirding the ship; and, fearing lest they should fall into the quicksand, strake sail, and so were driven.
ne tukwata akaato akeeyambisibwa mu kabenje, ne bakasibira okwo n’emiguwa okwetooloola ekyombo, ne bakanyweza. Olw’okutya nti ekyombo kiyinza okuwagamira mu musenyu gwa Suluti, kyebaava bassa ettanga eddene ne baleka ekyombo ne kitwalibwa omuyaga.
18 And we being exceedingly tossed with a tempest, the next day they lightened the ship;
Olunaku olwaddirira omuyaga ne gweyongera amaanyi, abalunnyanja ne batandika okusuula mu nnyanja ebintu ebyali mu kyombo.
19 And the third day we cast out with our own hands the cordage of the ship.
Ne ku lunaku olwokusatu ne bakwata ebintu ebikola ku kyombo ne babisuula mu nnyanja.
20 And when neither sun nor stars in many days appeared, and no small tempest lay on us, all hope that we should be saved was then taken away.
Ne tumala ennaku nnyingi nga tetulabye ku njuba wadde emunyeenye, gwo omuyaga nga gutuzunza n’amaanyi gaagwo gonna; olwo essuubi lyaffe lyonna ery’okuwona ne lituggweeramu ddala.
21 But after long abstinence Paul stood forth in the midst of them, and said, Sirs, all of you should have hearkened unto me, and not have loosed from Crete, and to have gained this harm and loss.
Bwe baamala ebbanga nga n’okulya tebaagala kulya, Pawulo n’alyoka ayimirira wakati mu bo, n’abagamba nti, “Abasajja kyabagwanira okumpuliriza obutava Kuleete, kubanga temwandifiiriddwa byammwe bwe muti awamu n’okulumizibwa!
22 And now I exhort you to be of good cheer: for there shall be no loss of any man's life among you, but of the ship.
Naye kaakano mugume omwoyo! Kubanga tewali n’omu ajja kufa, wabula ekyombo kyokka kye kijja okuzikirira.
23 For there stood by me this night the angel of God, whose I am, and whom I serve,
Kubanga ekiro ekyayise, malayika wa Katonda wange gwe mpeereza, yayimiridde we ndi,
24 Saying, Fear not, Paul; you must be brought before Caesar: and, lo, God has given you all them that sail with you.
n’aŋŋamba nti, ‘Totya, Pawulo, kubanga kikugwanira okuyimirira mu maaso ga Kayisaali owozesebwe, era laba, Katonda akuwadde obuvunaanyizibwa ku abo bonna b’oli nabo mu kyombo.’
25 Wherefore, sirs, be of good cheer: for I believe God, that it shall be even as it was told me.
Noolwekyo mugume omwoyo! Kubanga nzikiriza Katonda nga mu ngeri yonna kijja kuba nga bwe kyaŋŋambiddwa.
26 Nevertheless we must be cast upon a certain island.
Naye kitugwanidde okusuulibwa ku kizinga.”
27 But when the fourteenth night was come, as we were driven up and down in Adria, about midnight the sailors deemed that they drew near to some country;
Mu kiro eky’ekkumi n’ebina embuyaga bwe yali etuwuuba eno n’eri mu Nnyanja Aduliya, mu ttumbi abalunnyanja ne bateebereza nti olukalu luli kumpi.
28 And sounded, and found it twenty fathoms: and when they had gone a little further, they sounded again, and found it fifteen fathoms.
Ne bapima ne balaba ng’obuwanvu bw’amazzi okukka wansi buli mita amakumi asatu mu musanvu. Bwe waayitawo akabanga ate ne bapima ne basanga nga mita amakumi abiri mu musanvu.
29 Then fearing lest we should have fallen upon rocks, they cast four anchors out of the stern, and wished for the day.
Bwe baatya okutomera enjazi ku lubalama ne basuula ennanga nnya emabega, ne basabirira obudde okukya.
30 And as the sailors were about to flee out of the ship, when they had let down the boat into the sea, under colour as though they would have cast anchors out of the bow,
Abamu ku balunnyanja ne bateesa okwabulira ekyombo ne bassa akaato akeyambisibwa mu kabenje, nga beefuula ng’abagenda okusuula ennanga mu maaso g’ekyombo.
31 Paul said to the centurion and to the soldiers, Except these abide in the ship, all of you cannot be saved.
Naye Pawulo n’agamba omukulu w’ekitongole n’abaserikale be nti, “Mwenna temujja kuwona okuggyako ng’abasajja bano basigala ku kyombo.”
32 Then the soldiers cut off the ropes of the boat, and let her fall off.
Awo abaserikale ne basala emiguwa egyali gikutte akato, ne bakaleka ne kagwayo.
33 And while the day was coming on, Paul besought them all to take food, saying, This day is the fourteenth day that all of you have tarried and continued fasting, having taken nothing.
Awo obudde bwali bunaatera okukya, Pawulo ne yeegayirira buli muntu alye ku mmere, ng’abagamba nti, “Leero lunaku lwa kkumi na nnya nga mulindirira nga temulidde, ate era mukyeyongera obutalya.
34 Wherefore I pray you to take some food: for this is for your health: for there shall not an hair fall from the head of any of you.
Noolwekyo mubeeko ke mulya, kubanga ekyo kye kijja okubalokola so tewaabe n’omu ku mmwe anaavibwako luviiri lwe ku mutwe gwe.”
35 And when he had thus spoken, he took bread, and gave thanks to God in presence of them all: and when he had broken it, he began to eat.
Awo Pawulo bwe yamala okwogera ebyo, n’addira omugaati, ne yeebaza Katonda mu maaso gaabwe bonna, n’amenya omugaati n’alya.
36 Then were they all of good cheer, and they also took some food.
Amangwago buli omu n’atandika okulya ku mmere.
37 And we were in all in the ship two hundred threescore and sixteen souls.
Abaali ku kyombo bonna awamu baali ebikumi bibiri mu nsanvu mu mukaaga.
38 And when they had eaten enough, they lightened the ship, and cast out the wheat into the sea.
Bonna bwe baamala okulya nga bakkuse, ne basuula eŋŋaano mu nnyanja okwongera okuwewula ku kyombo.
39 And when it was day, they knew not the land: but they discovered a certain creek with a shore, into the which they were minded, if it were possible, to thrust in the ship.
Awo obudde bwe bwakya ne batalaba lukalu naye ne balengera ekikono ky’ennyanja nga kirina ekibangirizi eky’omusenyu ku lubalama, ne baagala bagobye okwo ekyombo.
40 And when they had taken up the anchors, they committed themselves unto the sea, and loosed the rudder bands, and hoisted up the mainsail to the wind, and made toward shore.
Ne bakutula ennanga, ne bazireka mu nnyanja, ne basumulula emiguwa egikwata enkasi ne bawanika ettanga ery’omu maaso g’ekyombo empewo eryoke ekitwale mu maaso, ne balyoka boolekera olukalu.
41 And falling into a place where two seas met, they ran the ship aground; and the front part stuck fast, and remained immoveable, but the hinder part was broken with the violence of the waves.
Naye ekyombo ne kyeggunda mu musenyu engezi ebbiri we zaali zisisinkana, ekitundu eky’omu maaso ne kiwagamira mu musenyu nga tekinyeenya, eky’emabega ne kisigala wabweru waggulu, ng’amayengo ag’amaanyi gakikuba, era ne kitandika okumenyekamenyeka.
42 And the soldiers' counsel was to kill the prisoners, lest any of them should swim out, and escape.
Abaserikale ne bateesa batte abasibe bonna, si kulwa nga bawuga ne batuuka ku lukalu ne babomba.
43 But the centurion, willing to save Paul, kept them from their purpose; and commanded that they which could swim should cast themselves first into the sea, and get to land:
Naye olwokubanga Yuliyo yayagala okuwonya Pawulo, amagezi ago n’agagaana. Awo n’alagira buli muntu asobola okuwuga awuge alage ku lukalu,
44 And the rest, some on boards, and some on broken pieces of the ship. And so it came to pass, that they escaped all safe to land.
n’abo abatasobola kuwuga bagezeeko okweyambisa ebitundutundu by’embaawo ebyali bimenyese ku kyombo. Awo buli muntu n’atuuka bulungi ku lukalu nga taliiko kamogo.
