Asunasi Dunu Ilia Hou 27
1 Fesadase da nini huluane Idali sogega foga ahoasu dusagai amo ganodini asunasimusa: dawa: beba: le, ilia da Bolo amola se dabe iasu diasu esalebe dunu eno, ili amo Yuliase (Louma dadi gagui gilisisu amo ea dio amo “Louma ouligisudafa amoea Dadi Gagui Gilisisu,” amo ganodini ouligisu esala), amo ili ouligima: ne, ema i.
As it was decided that we were to sail to Italy, Paul and some other prisoners were put in charge of a centurion of the Augustan Guard, named Julius.
2 Ninia da foga ahoasu dusagai (amo da A: dalamidiame moilai bai bagadega misi) amo fila heda: le, amo dusagai da A: isia soge bega: moilaiga masunuba: le, ninia Sesalia moilai yolesili asi. A: lisadagase (Ma: sidounia fi dunu musa: Desalounia moilai bai bagade esalu) da nini sigi asi.
We went on board a ship from Adramyttium, which was on the point of sailing to the ports along the coast of Roman Asia, and put to sea. Aristarchus, a Macedonian from Thessalonica, went with us.
3 Golale hahabe, ninia Saidone moilaiga doaga: i. Yuliase da Boloma asigi galu. Amaiba: le e da Bolo ea na: iyado gousa: musa: masa: ne amola liligi lamusa: , logo doasi dagoi.
The next day we put in to Sidon, where Julius treated Paul in a friendly manner, and allowed him to go to see his friends and receive their hospitality.
4 Saidone yolesili asili, ninima fo bagade mabeba: le, ninia Saibalase oga ea la: ididili, amo da fo hame mabe la: idi, amoga asi.
Putting to sea again, we sailed under the lee of Cyprus, because the wind was against us;
5 Oga be yolesili, hano degele, ninia hano amo ea bega: Silisia amola Ba: mafilia dialu, amo hanoga asili, Maila moilai Lisia soge ganodini amoga doaga: i.
and, after crossing the sea of Cilicia and Pamphylia, we reached Myra in Lycia.
6 Amo moilaiga, Yuliase da dusagai eno A: legesa: nadalia moilai bai bagadega misi, Idali sogega masunu, amo ba: beba: le, e da nini amoga fila heda: ma: ne oule asi.
There the Roman officer found an Alexandrian ship on her way to Italy, and put us on board of her.
7 Ninia gebewane foga ahoanu, logo gasawane ba: i. Amalalu ninia Naidase moilai bai bagade gadenenewane doaga: i. Be fo bagade da ninia logo damubiba: le, ninia Galidi oga amo fo hame mabe la: ididili asili, Sa: lamouni goa baligi.
For several days our progress was slow, and it was only with difficulty that we arrived off Cnidus. As the wind was still unfavorable when we came off Cape Salmone, we sailed under the lee of Crete,
8 Be gadenene, logo gasa bagade ba: lu, ninia soge ea dio amo Dusagai Gaga: i Sogebi, Lasia moilai (dusagai aligisu sogebi) gadenene, amo sogega fi galu.
and with difficulty, by keeping close in shore, we reached a place called ‘Fair Havens,’ near which was the town of Lasea.
9 Eso bagohame ouesalu, Gousa: su Eso da baligi dagoi ba: i. Fo bagade eso da doaga: beba: le, bu masunu da hamedei agoane ba: i. Bolo da Yuliase amola dusagai genonesisu dunu, ilima fada: i sia: amane olelei,
This had taken a considerable time, and sailing was already dangerous, for the Fast was already over; and so Paul gave this warning.
10 “Dilia! Ninia wali bu masunu logo da ga: nasidafa ba: mu, na dawa: ! Ninia bu ahoasea, liligi bagohame fisili, amola dunu bagohame bogoi dagoi ba: mu!”
“My friends,” he said, “I see that this voyage will be attended with injury and much damage, not only to the cargo and the ship, but to our own lives also.”
11 Be Yuliase da Bolo ea sia: mae nabawane, dusagai gagui dunu amola dusagai ouligisu dunu, ela sia: fawane nabi.
The Roman officer, however, was more influenced by the captain and the owner than by what was said by Paul.
12 Dusagai Gaga: i Sogebi da dusagai fisu noga: i hame galu. Amogawi, anegagi oubiga dialumu da defea hame ba: i. Amaiba: le, dunu huluane mogili, bagohame ilia amo sogebi fisili, Finigisi sogebi doaga: musa: asili, anegagi oubi amoga Finigisi amoga fimusa: dawa: i galu. Finigisi da dusagai aligisu sogebi Galidi oga ganodini diala. Amo ea midadi da ga (north) amola ga (south) ba: sa.
And, as the harbor was not a suitable one to winter in, the majority were in favor of continuing the voyage, in hope of being able to reach Phoenix, and winter there. Phoenix was a Cretan harbor, open to the north-east and south-east.
13 Fo asaboi gala da ga (south) muni mabeba: le, dusagai ouligisu dunu da ilia hanai amo hamomusa: dawa: i galu. Ilia ‘a: go’ (dioi liligi efega la: gi, dusagai mae masa: ne hanoga salasu liligi) duga: le, dusagai da foga ahoanu, Galidi oga bega: gadenenewane ahoasu.
So, when a light wind sprang up from the south, thinking that they had found their opportunity, they weighed anchor and kept along the coast of Crete, close in shore.
14 Be fo bagade heda: le (amo fo da “Fo da Ga (north) Misi” ilia da sia: su) oga amo la: ididili amoga misi.
But shortly afterward a hurricane came down on us off the land – a north-easter, as it is called.
15 Amo fo da dusagai amoga doaga: le, dusagai da yaguguli, masunu gogolei. Amaiba: le, ninia hanaiga fisili, dusagai da sinidigili, foga udigili ahoasu.
The ship was caught by it and was unable to keep her head to the wind, so we had to give way and let her drive before it.
16 Oga ea dio amo Gouda amoga doaga: le, ninia amoea fo hame mabe la: ididili ahoanu, dusagai bagade ea mano (dusagai fonobahadi) amo wadela: sa: besa: le, ninia gasawane hawa: hamobeba: le, la: gi dagoi.
Running under the lee of a small island called Cauda, we only just managed to secure the ship’s boat,
17 Amalalu, hiougili, gaguia gadole, amo dusagai fonobahadi ninia dusagai bagade amo da: iya ligisili, dusagai bagade da hanoga fabeba: le, fudagala: sa: besa: le, ninia efe haguduga ligisili, la: gi dagoi. Dusagai genonesisu dunu dusagai da sa: ibaso bi Libia be gadenene amoga fasa: besa: le, foga ahoasu abula fadegai dagoi. Amalalu, dusagai da hisu foga fabeba: le asi.
and, after hoisting it on board, the men frapped the ship. But, afraid of being driven on to the Syrtis Sands, they lowered the yard, and then drifted.
18 Isu gibula bobodoi bagade da hame yolei. Amaiba: le, golale hahabe, dusagai da magufasa: besa: le, ilia liligi ganodini sali amo mogili gadili ha: digi.
So violently were we tossed about by the storm, that the next day they began throwing the cargo overboard,
19 Golale hahabe, ilia da dusagai genonesisu liligi amo mogili gadili ha: digi. Bai amo liligi da dioi bagade ba: i.
and, on the following day, threw out the ship’s tackle with their own hands.
20 Eso bagohame amoga ninia eso amola gasumuni hamedafa ba: su. Fo da mae fisili manu. Ninia da dafawane hamoma: beyale dawa: lusu fisili, bogoma: beale dawa: i galu.
As neither sun nor stars were visible for several days, and, as the gale still continued severe, all hope of our being saved was at last abandoned.
21 Dunu huluane da eso bagohame ha: i mae nawane hawa: hamonanu, Bolo da ilia gilisisu amo ganodini lelu, amane sia: i, “Dilia da na sia: nabawane, Galidi soge hame yolesimu da defea galu. Agoane hamoi ganiaba, ninia dusagai wadela: lesi amola liligi huluane fisi dagoi hame ba: la: loba.
It was then, when they had gone a long time without food, that Paul came forward, and said, “My friends, you should have listened to me, and not have sailed from Crete and so incurred this injury and damage.
22 Be wali na dilima ha: giwane sia: sa. Dilia dogo denesima! Dunu afae da hamedafa bogomu. Be dusagai fawane fisi dagoi ba: mu.
Yet, even as things are, I beg you not to lose courage, for there will not be a single life lost among you – only the ship.
23 Gasi ganodini, Gode (na da Ea mano amola Ema nodone sia: ne gadosa), amo Ea a: igele dunu da nama misini, amane sia: i,
For last night an angel of the God to whom I belong, and whom I serve, stood by me, and said –
24 ‘Bolo! Di mae beda: ma! Di da Louma gamane ouligisudafa dunu ba: mu. Gode Ea hou da ida: iwane. E da dunu huluane di amola gilisili dusagai ganodini ahoasu dunu huluane ilia bogomu logo ga: i dagoi.’
‘Have no fear, Paul; you must appear before the Emperor, and God himself has given you the lives of all your fellow voyagers.’
25 Amaiba: le, dilia dogo denesima! Na da Gode Ea sia: dafawaneyale dawa: be! Ninia Ea nama adoi defele ba: mu, na dawa: !
Therefore, courage, my friends! For I believe God, that everything will happen exactly as I have been told.
26 Be fo da gasa bagade mabeba: le, ninia dusagai da oga bega: somu.”
We will, however, have to be driven on some island.”
27 Fo da degabo heda: le, hi aduna aligili, ninia dusagai da Medidela: inia Hano Waiyabo Bagade amo ganodini foga fabeba: le lalu. Gasimogoa, dusagai genonesisu dunu da ninia da bega: doaga: mu gadeneidafa dawa: i galu.
It was now the fourteenth night of the storm, and we were drifting about in the Adriatic Sea, when, about midnight, the sailors began to suspect that they were drawing near land.
28 Amaiba: le, hano ea lugudu defei dawa: ma: ne, ilia dioi liligi efe bidiga la: gili, hanoga galadigili, igi fa: iga doaga: i. Defei da 40 mida agoane ba: i. Fonobahadi ouesalu, bu hamone, lugudu defei 30 mida ba: i.
So they took soundings, and found twenty fathoms of water. After waiting a little, they took soundings again, and found fifteen fathoms.
29 Dusagai da igiga fasa: besa: le, genonesisu dunu da ‘a: go’ biyaduyale gala, dusagai ea baligiga hanoga sali. Hadigi da hedolo misa: ne, ilia sia: ne gadoi.
Then, as they were afraid of our being driven on some rocky coast, they let go four anchors from the stern, and longed for daylight.
30 Amalalu, genonesisu dunu ilia da dusagai fisimusa: dawa: i galu. Ilia dusagai mano hanoga gududili sanasili, ilia ogogole ‘a: go’ eno dusagai ea hagomodini amoga ligisimusa: sia: i.
The sailors wanted to leave the ship, and had lowered the boat, on pretense of running out anchors from the bows,
31 Be Bolo da dadi gagui ouligisu amola dadi gagui dunu, ilima amane sia: i, “Dusagai genonesisu dunu da dusagai fisisia, dunu huluane da bogogia: mu!”
when Paul said to the Roman officer and his men, “Unless the sailors remain on board, you cannot be saved.”
32 Amaiba: le, dadi gagui dunu da efe amoga dusagai fonobahadi da dusagaidafaga la: gi, amo hedofabeba: le, dusagai fonobahadi da udigili fisi.
So the soldiers cut the ropes which held the boat, and let her drift away.
33 Eso misunu gadenene ba: loba, Bolo da ilima ha: i moma: ne ha: giwane sia: i, amane, “Dilia da hi aduna ha: i mae nawane ouesalu.
In the interval before daybreak Paul kept urging them all to take something to eat. “It is a fortnight today,” he said, “that, owing to your anxiety, you have gone without food, taking nothing.
34 Amaiba: le, dilia mae bogoma: ne, ha: i moma: ne, na da dilima ha: giwane sia: sa. Dilia da se hamedafa nabimu.”
So I beg you to take something to eat; your safety depends on it, for not one of you will lose even a hair of his head.”
35 Amo sia: nanu, Bolo da agi lale, Godema nodone sia: ne gadole, fifili, ilima i.
With these words he took some bread, and, after saying the thanksgiving to God before them all, broke it in pieces, and began to eat;
36 Amalalu, ilia dogo denesini, dunu huluane da ha: i mai.
and the men all felt cheered and had something to eat themselves.
37 Dunu huluane da 276 amo dusagai ganodini sali.
There were about seventy-six of us on board, all told.
38 Ilia sadini mai dagoloba, ilia dusagai hagima: ne, widi ha: i manu huluane ganodini sali, amo hanoga galadigi.
After satisfying their hunger, they further lightened the ship by throwing the grain into the sea.
39 Hahabe doaga: loba, dusagai da soge be gadenene dialebe ba: i. Be dusagai genonesisu dunu da amo soge dio hame dawa: i. Be ilia da soge bega: bosada: i umiwane dialebe ba: beba: le, dusagai genonesili amo bega: somusa: ilegei galu.
When daylight came, they could not make out what land it was, but, observing a creek in which there was a beach, they consulted as to whether they could run the ship safely into it.
40 Amaiba: le, ‘a: go’ liligi hanoga fisimusa: , efe damui dagole, eno efe logo olelesu sua: su amoga bagelesi fadegai. Amalalu, dusagai da hagomodini masa: ne, ilia dusagai abula dusagai hagomodini gala gaguia gadole, dusagai da bega: doaga: musa: ahoanu.
Then they cast off, and abandoned the anchors, and at the same time unlashed the gear of the steering oars, hoisted the foresail to the wind, and made for the beach.
41 Be dusagai da sa: i boso bi fai dagoi. Dusagai hagomodini da bai bagadeba: le, masunu gogolei. Be dusagai ea baligi da hano gafului amoga fananebeba: le, mugulumu agoai ba: i.
They got, however, into a kind of channel, and there ran the ship aground. The bows stuck fast and could not be moved, while the stern began breaking up under the strain.
42 Dadi gagui dunu ilia da se dabe iasu hamosu dunu huluane dasisa: ili, bega: doaga: le udigili hobea: sa: besa: le, amo logo damumusa: huluane medole legemusa: ilegei galu.
The advice of the soldiers was that the prisoners should be killed, so that none of them could swim away and make their escape.
43 Be dadi gagui ouligisu dunu, e da Bolo gaga: musa: dawa: beba: le, ili logo hedofai. E sia: beba: le, dasi dasu dawa: su dunu da hidadea dusagai fisili hanoga soagala: le, bega: dasi sa: i.
But the Roman officer, anxious to save Paul, prevented their carrying out their intention, and ordered that those who could swim should be the first to jump into the sea and try to reach the shore;
44 Eno da fa: no bobogele, ifa da: fe amola dusagai mugului liligi, amo gaguiwane bega: doaga: musa: asi. Amaiba: le, ninia huluane hahawane bega: doaga: i.
and that the rest should follow, some on planks, and others on different pieces of the ship. In these various ways everyone managed to get safely ashore.
