Acts 27
1 When [the Governor and those who advised him] decided that it was time for us [(exc)] to get on a ship and go to Italy, they put Paul and some other prisoners into the hands/care of an army captain whose name was Julius. [He was the one who would guard us on the journey]. Julius was [an officer] in charge of [a group of] 100 [soldiers that people called] ‘the Emperor Augustus Group’.
I kao što bi odreðeno da idemo u Talijansku, predaše i Pavla i druge neke sužnje kapetanu, po imenu Juliju, od æesareve èete.
2 So we got on a ship that had come from Adramyttium [city in Asia province. The ship] was going to [return there, stopping at] cities along the coast of Asia [province]. Aristarchus, [a fellow believer who was] from Thessalonica [city] in Macedonia [province], went with us.
A kad uðosmo u laðu Adramitsku da plovimo u Azijska mjesta, otiskosmo se; i s nama bješe Aristarh Maæedonac iz Soluna.
3 The day after [the ship sailed], we arrived at Sidon [city]. Julius kindly told Paul that he could go and see his friends [who lived there], so that they could give him whatever he might need. [So Paul visited the believers there].
I drugi dan doðosmo u Sidon. I Julije držaše Pavla lijepo, i dopusti mu da odlazi k svojijem prijateljima i da ga poslužuju.
4 Then the ship left [Sidon], but the winds were blowing against us [(exc)], so [the ship] went along [the north] side of Cyprus [Island], the side that is sheltered [from the wind].
I odande odvezavši se doplovismo u Kipar, jer vjetrovi bijahu protivni.
5 After that, we crossed over the sea close to the coast of Cilicia and Pamphylia [provinces. The ship] arrived at Myra [city, which is] in Lycia [province]. [We got off the ship there].
I preplovivši puèinu Kilikijsku i Pamfilijsku doðosmo u Miru Likijsku.
6 In Myra, [people told] Julius that a ship [was there that had come] from Alexandria [city] and would [soon] sail to Italy. So he arranged for us to get [on that ship], [and we left].
I ondje našavši kapetan laðu Aleksandrijsku koja plovi u Talijansku, metnu nas u nju.
7 We sailed slowly for several days and finally arrived close to the coast [of Asia province], near Cnidus [town. After that], the wind [was very strong and] did not allow the ship to move straight ahead [westward. So instead], we sailed [southward] along the side of Crete [Island that is] sheltered [from the wind], and we passed [near Cape] Salmone.
I plovivši mnogo dana sporo, i jedva došavši prema Knidu, jer nam vjetar ne dadijaše, doplovismo pod Krit kod Salmone.
8 [The wind was still strong, and it prevented the ship from moving ahead fast]. So we moved slowly along the coast [of Crete], and we arrived at a harbor that was called Fair Havens, near Lasea [town].
I jedva se vozeæi pored kraja, doðosmo na jedno mjesto koje se zove Dobra Pristaništa, kod kojega blizu bješe grad Laseja.
9 Much time had passed, so it would have been dangerous if we [(exc)] had traveled [farther] by ship [because after that time of the year] [MTY] [the sea often became very stormy]. So Paul said to the men [on the ship],
A pošto proðe mnogo vremena, i veæ plovljenje ne bijaše bez straha, jer i post veæ bješe prošao, svjetovaše Pavle
10 “Men, I perceive that [if we(inc) travel by ship] now, it will be disastrous for us. A storm may destroy the ship and the cargo, and possibly we will drown.”
Govoreæi im: ljudi! vidim da æe plovljenje biti s mukom i velikom štetom ne samo tovara i laðe nego i duša našijeh.
11 But the officer [did not listen to] what Paul said. Instead, he decided to do what the pilot [of the ship] and the owner of the ship advised.
Ali kapetan posluša veæma kormanoša i gospodara od laðe negoli Pavlove rijeèi.
12 The harbor where the ship had stopped was not a good place to remain during the winter [when the weather frequently becomes stormy. So most of the people on the ship decided that we(exc) should leave there, because they hoped that we] could stay at Phoenix [port] during the winter, if we could possibly arrive there. That harbor was open to the sea in two directions, [but the strong winds did not blow there].
A ne buduæi pristanište zgodno za zimovnik, svjetovahu mnogi da se odvezu odande, ne bi li kako mogli doæi do Finika, i ondje da zimuju u pristaništu Kritskom, koje gleda k jugu i k zapadu.
13 Then a gentle wind began to blow [from the south], and the [crew members] thought that they could travel as they had decided [to do. So] they lifted [the anchor up out of the sea], and the ship sailed [westward] along the [southern] shore of Crete [Island].
I kad dunu jug, mišljahu da im se volja ispuni, i podignuvši jedra plovljahu pokraj Krita.
14 But after a while, a wind that was very strong blew across the island [from the north side and hit the ship. That wind was called] {[People] called that wind} “the Northeast Wind.”
Ali ne zadugo potom dunu nasuprot njemu buran vjetar koji se zove Evroklidon.
15 It blew strongly against the [front of] the ship. The result was that we could not keep going in the direction [in which we had been going]. So the sailors let the wind move the ship in the direction [that the wind] was blowing.
A kad se laða ote, i ne mogaše se vjetru protiviti, predadosmo je valovima i nošahu nas.
16 The ship then passed a small island named Cauda. We passed along the side [of the island that] sheltered [the ship from the wind]. Then [while the ship was moving along], the sailors lifted the lifeboat up [out of the water] and tied it [on the deck. But the strong wind made it] difficult even to do that.
A kad proðosmo mimo jedno ostrvo koje se zove Klauda, jedva mogosmo udržati èamac,
17 After the sailors [hoisted/lifted] the lifeboat onto the ship, they tied ropes around the ship’s hull to strengthen the ship. The sailors were afraid that, [because the wind was pushing the ship], it might run onto the sandbanks off the coast of Libya to the south [and get stuck there. So] they lowered the largest sail [so that the ship would move slower. Even so], the wind continued to move the ship along. [The wind and the waves] continued to toss the ship about roughly, so on the next day the sailors began to throw overboard the things that the ship was carrying.
Koji izvukavši, svakojako pomagahu, te ga privezasmo odozdo za laðu; a bojeæi se da ne udari na prud, spustismo jedra, i tako se plavljasmo.
A kad nam veoma dosaðivaše bura sjutradan izbacivahu tovare.
19 On the third [day after the stormy wind had begun to blow], the sailors/we [MTY] threw overboard [most of] the sails, ropes, and poles, [in order to make the ship lighter].
I u treæi dan svojima rukama izbacismo alat laðarski.
20 The wind continued to blow very strongly, [and the sky was full of dark clouds] day and night. We could not see the sun or the stars for many days, [so we could not determine where we were. And the wind] continued to blow violently. So we [(exc)] finally thought that we would drown in the sea.
A kad se ni sunce ni zvijezde za mnogo dana ne pokazaše, i bura ne mala navalila, bijaše propao sav nad da æemo se izbaviti.
21 None of us on the ship had eaten for many days. [Then one day], Paul stood up in front of us and said, “[Friends], you should have listened to me [when I said] that we [(inc)] should not sail from Crete. Then we would have been safe, and the ship and its cargo would be in good condition [LIT].
I kad se zadugo nije jelo, onda Pavle stavši preda njih reèe: trebaše dakle, o ljudi! poslušati mene, i ne otiskivati se od Krita, i ne imati ove muke i štete.
22 But now, I urge you, do not be afraid, because none of us will die. [The storm] will destroy the ship but not us.
I evo sad vas molim da budete dobre volje: jer nijedna duša od vas neæe propasti osim laðe;
23 I [know this], because last night God, the one to whom I belong and whom I serve, [sent] an angel [who came and] stood by me.
Jer u ovu noæ stade preda me anðeo Boga kojega sam ja i kome služim,
24 The angel said to me, ‘Paul, do not be afraid! You [(sg)] must [go to Rome] and stand before the Emperor there [so that he can judge you]. I want you to know that God has made it clear to me that all those who are traveling by ship with you [will also survive].’
Govoreæi: ne boj se, Pavle! valja ti doæi pred æesara; i evo ti darova Bog sve koji se voze s tobom.
25 So cheer up, [my] friends, because I believe that God will make this happen, exactly as [the angel] told me.
Zato ne bojte se, ljudi; jer vjerujem Bogu da æe tako biti kao što mi bi reèeno.
26 However, [the ship] will crash on some island, [and] we [(inc)] will go ashore [there].”
Ali valja nam doæi na jedno ostrvo.
27 On the fourteenth night [after the storm had begun, the ship] was still being blown {the wind was still blowing [the ship]} across the Adriatic sea. About midnight, the sailors sensed that the ship was getting close to land.
A kad bi èetrnaesta noæ, i mi se u ponoæi plavljasmo po Adrijanskoj puèini, pomisliše laðari da se približuju k nekakvoj zemlji.
28 So they lowered [a weight on a rope] to measure how deep [the water was]. When they pulled the rope up again, they measured it and saw that the water was (120 ft./37 meters) deep. They went a little farther and lowered the rope again. [That time], they saw that the water was [only] about (90 ft./28 meters) deep.
I izmjerivši dubinu naðoše dvadeset hvati; i prošavši malo opet izmjeriše, i naðoše petnaest hvati.
29 They were afraid that the [ship] might go onto some rocks, so they threw out four anchors from the [ship’s] stern/back and continued to wish/pray that it would soon be dawn [so that they could see where the ship was going].
Onda bojeæi se da kako ne udare na prudovita mjesta baciše sa stražnjega kraja laðe èetiri lengera, pa se moljasmo Bogu da svane.
30 Some of the sailors were planning to escape from the ship, so they lowered the lifeboat into the sea. In order [that no one would know what they planned to do], they pretended [that] they wanted to lower some anchors from the [ship’s] front/bow.
A kad laðari gledahu da pobjegnu iz laðe, i spustiše èamac u more izgovarajuæi se kao da hoæe s prednjega kraja da spuste lengere,
31 But Paul said to the army officer and soldiers, “If the sailors do not stay in the ship, you have no hope of being saved.”
Reèe Pavle kapetanu i vojnicima: ako ovi ne ostanu u laði, vi ne možete živi ostati.
32 So the soldiers cut the ropes and let the lifeboat fall into the water.
Tada vojnici odrezaše uža na èamcu i pustiše ga te pade.
33 Just before dawn, Paul urged everyone [on the ship] to eat some food. He said, “For the past 14 days you have been waiting and watching and not eating anything.
A kad šæaše da svane, moljaše Pavle sve da jedu, govoreæi: èetrnaesti je dan danas kako èekate i ne jeduæi živite ništa ne okusivši.
34 So, [now] I urge you to eat some food. We [(inc)] need to do that in order to stay alive. I [tell you to do that because I know that] none of you will drown [IDM].”
Zato vas molim da jedete: jer je to za vaše zdravlje. A ni jednome od vas dlaka s glave neæe otpasti.
35 After Paul had said that, while everyone was watching, he took some bread and thanked God [for it. Then he broke the bread and began to eat some of it].
I rekavši ovo uze hljeb, i dade hvalu Bogu pred svima, i prelomivši stade jesti.
36 The [rest of us] became encouraged, so we [(exc)] all ate some food.
Onda se svi razveselivši i oni jedoše.
37 Altogether there were 276 of us [SYN] on the ship.
A u laði bijaše nas duša svega dvjesta i sedamdeset i šest.
38 When everyone had eaten as much as they wanted, they threw the grain [that the ship was carrying] into the sea, and this made the ship lighter.
I nasitivši se jela, oblakšaše laðu izbacivši pšenicu u more.
39 At dawn, [we(exc) could see] land, [but the sailors] did not recognize [the place]. However, they could see that there was a bay and [a wide area of] sand at the water’s edge. They planned that, if it was possible, they would steer the ship onto [the beach].
A kad bi dan ne poznavahu zemlje; nego ugledaše nekakav zaliv s pijeskom, na koji se dogovoriše, ako bude moguæe, da izvuku laðu.
40 [So some of the sailors] cut the anchor [ropes and] let the anchors fall into the sea. At the same time, [other sailors] untied the [ropes that] fastened the rudders, [so that they could steer the ship again]. Then [the sailors] raised the sail at the front/bow of the ship so that the wind [would blow the ship forward], and the ship headed towards the shore.
I podignuvši lengere vožahu se po moru, i odriješivši uža na krmama, i raširivši malo jedro prema vjetriæu koji duhaše, vožasmo se kraju.
41 But the ship hit a sandbank. The front of the ship stuck there and could not move, and big waves beat against the back of the ship and it began to break apart.
A kad doðosmo kao na jedan jezik, gdje se more kao razdjeljuje, nasadi se laða; i prednji kraj, koji se nasadi, osta tvrd da se ne može pomaknuti, a krma se razbijaše od sile valova.
42 The soldiers said [to one another, “Let’s] kill [all] the prisoners [on the ship], so that they will not [be able to] swim [away and] escape.” [They planned to do that because they were sure] that officials [would order them to be executed if they let the prisoners escape].
A vojnici se dogovoriše da pobiju sužnje, da koji ne ispliva i ne uteèe.
43 But [Julius], the army captain, wanted to save Paul, so he stopped the soldiers from doing what they planned to do. Instead, he [commanded] first that everyone who could swim should jump into the water and swim to land.
Ali kapetan želeæi saèuvati Pavla zabrani njihov dogovor, i zapovjedi onima koji znadu plivati da iskoèe najprije, i da iziðu na zemlju;
44 [Then he told] the others [to hold] onto planks or pieces from the ship [and go towards shore. We(exc) did what he said, and] in that way all of us arrived safely on land.
A ostali jedni na daskama a jedni na èemu od laðe. I tako iziðoše svi živi na zemlju.
