Acts 27
1 When it was cocluded that we shuld sayle into Italy they delivered Paul and certayne other presoners vnto one named Iulius an vnder captayne of Cesars soudiars.
すでに我等をイタリヤに渡らしむること決りたれば、パウロ及びその他 數人の囚人を、近衞 隊の百卒長ユリアスと云ふ人に付せり。
2 And we entred into a ship of Adramicium and lowsed from lond apoynted to sayle by the costes of Asia one Aristarcus out of Macedonia of the contre of Thessalia beinge with vs.
ここに我らアジヤの海邊なる各處に寄せゆくアドラミテオの船の出帆せんとするに乘りて出づ。テサロニケのマケドニヤ人アリスタルコも我らと共にありき。
3 And the nexte daye we came to Sidon. And Iulius courteously entreated Paul and gave him liberte to goo vnto his frendes and to refresshe him selfe.
次の日シドンに著きたれば、ユリアス懇切にパウロを遇ひ、その友らの許にゆきて歡待を受くることを許せり。
4 And from thence lanched we and sayled harde by Cypers because the wyndes were contrarye.
かくて此處より船出せしが、風の逆ふによりてクプロの風下の方をはせ、
5 Then sayled we over the see of Cilicia and Pamphylia and came to Myra a cite in Lycia.
キリキヤ及びパンフリヤの沖を過ぎてルキヤのミラに著く。
6 And there ye vnder captayne founde a shippe of Alexander redy to sayle into Italy and put vs therin.
彼處にてイタリヤにゆくアレキサンデリヤの船に遇ひたれば、百卒長われらを之に乘らしむ。
7 And when we had sayled slowly many dayes and scace were come over agaynst Gnydon (because the wynde with stode vs) we sayled harde by the costes of Candy over agaynste Salmo
多くの日のあひだ船の進み遲く、辛うじてクニドに對へる處に到りしが、風に阻へられてサルモネの沖を過ぎ、クレテの風下の方をはせ、
8 and with moche worke sayled beyonde yt and came vnto a place called good porte. Nye whervnto was a citie called Lasea.
陸に沿ひ辛うじて良き港といふ處につく。その近き處にラサヤの町あり。
9 When moche tyme was spent and saylinge was now ieoperdeous because also that we had overlonge fasted Paul put them in remembraunce
船路 久しきを歴て、斷食の期節も既に過ぎたれば、航海 危きにより、パウロ人々に勸めて言ふ、
10 and sayde vnto them Syrs I perceave that this vyage wilbe with hurte and moche domage not of the ladynge and ship only: but also of oure lyves.
『人々よ、我この航海の害あり損 多くして、ただ積荷と船とのみならず、我らの生命にも及ぶべきを認む』
11 Neverthelather the vndercaptayne beleved the governer and the master better then tho thinges which were spoken of Paul.
されど百卒長は、パウロの言ふ所よりも船 長と船 主との言を重んじたり。
12 And because the haven was not comodius to wynter in many toke counsell to departe thence yf by eny meanes they myght attayne to Phenices and there to wynter which is an haven of Candy and servith to the southwest and northwest wynde.
且この港は冬を過すに不便なるより、多數の者も、なし得んにはピニクスに到り、彼處にて冬を過さんとて、此處を船出するを可しとせり。ピニクスはクレテの港にて東 北と東 南とに向ふ。
13 When the south wynde blewe they supposynge to obtayne their purpose lowsed vnto Asson and sayled paste all Candy.
南 風おもむろに吹きたれば、彼ら志望を得たりとして錨をあげ、クレテの岸邊に沿ひて進みたり。
14 But anone after ther arose agaynste their purpose a flawe of wynde out of the northeeste.
幾程もなくユーラクロンといふ疾風その島より吹きおろし、
15 And when the ship was caught and coulde not resist the wynde we let her goo and drave with the wether.
之がために船は吹き流され、風に向ひて進むこと能はねば、船は風の追ふに任す。
16 And we came vnto an yle named Clauda and had moche worke to come by abote
クラウダといふ小島の風下の方にいたり、辛うじて小艇を收め、
17 which they toke vp and vsed helpe vndergerdynge the shippe fearynge lest we shuld have fallen into Syrtes and we let doune a vessell and so were caryed.
これを船に引上げてのち、備綱にて船體を卷き縛り、またスルテスの洲に乘りかけんことを恐れ、帆を下して流る。
18 The nexte daye when we were tossed wt an exceadynge tempest they lyghtened ye ship
いたく暴風に惱され、次の日、船の者ども積荷を投げすて、
19 and the thyrde daye we cast out with oure awne hondes the tacklynge of the shippe.
三日めに手づから船具を棄てたり。
20 When at the last nether sunne nor starre in many dayes appered and no small tempest laye apon vs all hope that we shuld be saved was then taken awaye.
數日のあひだ日も星も見えず、暴風はげしく吹き荒びて、我らの救はるべき望ついに絶え果てたり。
21 Then after longe abstinence Paul stode forth in the myddes of them and sayde: Syrs ye shulde have harkened to me and not have lowsed from Candy nether to have brought vnto vs this harme and losse.
人々の食せぬこと久しくなりたる時、パウロその中に立ちて言ふ『人々よ、なんぢら前に我が勸をきき、クレテより船出せずして、この害と損とを受けずあるべき筈なりき。
22 And nowe I exhorte you to be of good chere. For ther shalbe no losse of eny mas lyfe amonge you save of the ship only.
いま我なんぢらに勸む、心 安かれ、汝 等のうち一人だに生命をうしなふ者なし、ただ船を失はん。
23 For ther stode by me this nyght the angell of God whose I am and whom I serve
わが屬するところ我が事ふる所の神の使、昨夜わが傍らに立ちて、
24 sayinge: feare not Paul for thou must be brought before Cesar. And lo God hath geven vnto the all that sayle with ye.
「パウロよ、懼るな、なんぢ必ずカイザルの前に立たん、視よ、神は汝と同船する者をことごとく汝に賜へり」と云ひたればなり。
25 Wherfore Syrs be of good chere: for I beleve God that so it shalbe even as it was tolde me.
この故に人々よ、心 安かれ、我はその我に語り給ひしごとく必ず成るべしと神を信ず。
26 How be it we must be cast into a certayne ylonde.
而して我らは或 島に推上げらるべし』
27 But when ye fourtethe nyght was come as we were caryed in Adria about mydnyght the shipmen demed that ther appered some countre vnto the:
かくて十 四日めの夜に至りて、アドリヤの海を漂ひゆきたるに、夜半ごろ水夫ら陸に近づきたりと思ひて、
28 and sounded and founde it. xx. feddoms. And when they had gone a lytell further they sounded agayne and founde. xv. feddoms.
水を測りたれば、二 十 尋なるを知り、少しく進みてまた測りたれば、十 五 尋なるを知り、
29 Then fearinge lest they shuld have fallen on some Rocke they cast. iiii. ancres out of the sterne and wysshed for ye daye.
岩に乘り上げんことを恐れて、艫より錨を四つ投して夜明を待ちわぶ。
30 As the shipmen were about to fle out of the ship and had let doune the bote into the see vnder a coloure as though they wolde have cast ancres out of the forshippe:
然るに水夫ら船より逃れ去らんと欲し、舳より錨を曳きゆくに言 寄せて小艇を海に下したれば、
31 Paul sayd vnto ye vnder captayne and the soudiers: excepte these abyde in the ship ye cannot be safe.
パウロ、百卒長と兵卒らとに言ふ『この者ども若し船に留らずば、汝ら救はるること能はず』
32 Then the soudiers cut of the rope of the bote and let it fall awaye.
ここに兵卒ら小艇の綱を斷切りて、その流れゆくに任す。
33 And in ye meane tyme betwixt that and daye Paul besought them all to take meate sayinge: this is ye fourtenthe daye that ye have taried and continued fastynge receavinge nothinge at all.
夜の明けんとする頃、パウロ凡ての人に食せんことを勸めて言ふ『なんぢら待ち待ちて食事せぬこと今日にて十 四日なり。
34 Wherfore I praye you to take meate: for this no dout is for youre helth: for ther shall not an heere fall fro the heed of eny of you.
されば汝らに食せんことを勸む、これ汝らが救のためなり、汝らの頭髮 一筋だに首より落つる事なし』
35 And when he had thus spoke he toke breed and gave thankes to God in presence of the all and brake it and begane to eate.
斯く言ひて後みづからパンを取り、一同の前にて神に謝し、擘きて食し始めたれば、
36 Then were they all of good cheare and they also toke meate.
人々もみな心を安んじて食したり。
37 We were all together in ye ship two hundred thre score and sixtene soules.
船に居る我らは凡て二 百 七 十 六 人なりき。
38 And whe they had eate ynough they lightened ye ship and cast out the wheate into the see.
人々 食し飽きてのち、穀物を海に投げ棄てて船を輕くせり。
39 Whe yt was daye they knew not ye lande but they spied a certayne haven with a banke into ye which they were mynded (yf yt were possible) to thrust in the ship.
夜明になりて、孰の土地かは知らねど、砂濱の入江を見出し、なし得べくば此處に船を寄せんと相 議り、
40 And when they had taken vp the ancres they comytted them selves vnto the see and lowsed the rudder bondes and hoysed vp ye mayne sayle to the wynde and drue to londe.
錨を斷ちて海に棄つるとともに、舵纜をゆるめ舳の帆を揚げて、風にまかせつつ砂濱さして進む。
41 But they chaunsed on a place which had the see on bothe the sydes and thrust in the ship. And the foore parte stucke fast and moved not but ye hynder brake with the violence of the waves.
然るに潮の流れあふ處にいたりて船を淺瀬に乘り上げたれば、舳 膠著きて動かず、艫は浪の激しきに破れたり。
42 The soudears counsell was to kyll ye presoners lest eny of them when he had swome out shulde fle awaye.
兵卒らは囚人の泳ぎて逃れ去らんことを恐れ、これを殺さんと議りしに、
43 But the vndercaptayne willinge to save Paul kept the from their purpose and commaunded that they yt could swyme shulde cast the selves first in to ye see and scape to londe.
百卒長パウロを救はんと欲して、その議るところを阻み、泳ぎうる者に命じ、海に跳び入りてまず上陸せしめ、
44 And the other he comaunded to goo some on bordes and some on broken peces of the ship. And so it came to passe that they came all safe to londe.
その他の者をば或は板あるひは船の碎片に乘らしむ。斯くしてみな上陸して救はるるを得たり。
