Y Checho Y Apostoles Sija 27
1 YA anae esta majasuye na para infanmaudae gui batco para Italia, maentrega si Pablo, yan otro manpreso gui uno na y naanña si Julio, senturion gui sendalon Augusto.
Now when it was decided that we should sail for Italy, they handed over Paul and a few other prisoners into the custody of Julius, a Captain of the Augustan battalion;
2 Ya anae manjalomjam gui batcon Adrumeto, comoque janao para y costan Asia, manjanaojam; ya manjajame yan un Aristarcho, taotao Masedonio na sagaña Tesalónica.
and going on board a ship of Adramyttium which was about to sail to the ports of the province of Asia, we put to sea; Aristarchus, the Macedonian, from Thessalonica, forming one of our party.
3 Ya y inagpaña na jaane, manmatojam Sidon: ya si Julio jagosgüaeya si Pablo, ya janae linibre na ujanao para y manamiguña para unamagof güe.
The next day we put in at Sidon. There Julius treated Paul with thoughtful kindness and allowed him to visit his friends and profit by their generous care.
4 Ya mamaudaejam gui batco manlayagjam papa jijot Chipre, desde ayo, sa y manglo contra.
Putting to sea again, we sailed under the lee of Cyprus, because the winds were against us;
5 Ya anae manjanaojam gui tasen jijot Silisia yan Pamfilia, manmatojam Mira, gui siudad Lisia.
and, sailing the whole length of the sea that lies off Cilicia and Pamphylia, we reached Myra in Lycia.
6 Ya jasoda güije y senturion un batcon Alejandria, na jumajanao para Italia; ya janafanjalomjam.
There Julius found an Alexandrian ship bound for Italy, and put us on board of her.
7 Ya manmaudaejam gui batco megae na jaane, sa mumayayama senñateng, yan canaja ti manmatojam guato Gnido, ti japolojam y manglo, ya manmayama jijot papa Creta, guiya Salmon;
It took several days of slow sailing for us to come with difficulty off Cnidus; from which point, as the wind did not allow us to get on in the direct course, we ran under the lee of Crete by Salmone.
8 Ya gosmapot manmalofanjam umoriya inanaco güije na tase, manmatojam gui un lugat na mafanaan Bonito-Puerto, na jijot gui siuda Lasea.
Then, coasting along with difficulty, we reached a place called 'Fair Havens,' near the town of Lasea.
9 Ya anae megae na tiempo malofan, ya senpiligro y jinanaomame, sa y Ayunat esta malofan, ya si Pablo mansinangane sija,
Our voyage thus far had occupied a considerable time, and the navigation being now unsafe and the Fast also already over, Paul warned them.
10 Ya ilegña nu sija: Señores, julie na este na jinanao, guaja uninalamen yan megae uninafanaelaye, ya ti y catgaja yan y batco, lao asta y jaanita locue.
"Sirs," he said, "I perceive that before long the voyage will be attended with danger and heavy loss, not only to the cargo and the ship but to our own lives also."
11 Lao y senturion, jajonggueñaja y magas batco yan y gaeiyo y batco, qui ayo sija y sinangan Pablo.
But Julius let himself be persuaded by the pilot and by the owner rather than by Paul's arguments;
12 Sa taya puerto nae siña para ufañaga y tiempon manenggeng, ya mas megae majaso na ufanmalofan güije gui tase locue, para ujaquelie jaftaemano nae siña manmato Fenix, ya ayo nae ufañaga güije y tiempon manenggeng, gui puerton Creta, ni y jadalalalaque y sanjaya gui sanlichan yan y sanlago gui sanlichan.
and as the harbour was inconvenient for wintering in, the majority were in favour of putting out to sea, to try whether they could get to Phoenix--a harbour on the coast of Crete facing north-east and south-east--to winter there.
13 Ya anae manguaefe didide y manglo sanjaya, pinelonñija na ujataca y malagoñija, jadingo ayo ya manjanao guato oriyan Creta.
And a light breeze from the south sprang up, so that they supposed they were now sure of their purpose. So weighing anchor they ran along the coast of Crete, hugging the shore.
14 Lao despues ti apmam na tiempo cajulo un dangculon manglo contra y batco, na mafanaan Euroclydon;
But it was not long before a furious north-east wind, coming down from the mountains, burst upon us and carried the ship out of her course.
15 Ya tinemba y batco ya tisiña injanao contra y manglo, inpelo na umachule ni y manglo.
She was unable to make headway against the gale; so we gave up and let her drive.
16 Ya malago asta y papa un isla na mafanaan Clauda, ya megae y chechomame pot y bote.
Then we ran under the lee of a little island called Cauda, where we managed with great difficulty to secure the boat;
17 Ni y anae manmajatsa julo, ya manmaayuda, magode y batco gui sampapa; ya manmaañao na umayute gui Sirte, manatunog y layag ya ayonae manmachule ni y manglo.
and, after hoisting it on board, they used frapping-cables to undergird the ship, and, as they were afraid of being driven on the Syrtis quicksands, they lowered the gear and lay to.
18 Ya janafangoschatsagajam y pinagyo, ya y inagpaña na jaane, jayute gui tase y catga, manachadeg y batco,
But, as the storm was still violent, the next day they began to lighten the ship;
19 Ya y mina tres na jaane, inyite juyong ni y canaemameja y güinajan y batco.
and, on the third day, with their own hands they threw the ship's spare gear overboard.
20 Ya megae na jaane na ti anog y atdao, ni y pution sija, ya ti didide na pagyo mato guiya jame, ya todo y ninangganmamame na infansatbo, malingo.
Then, when for several days neither sun nor stars were seen and the terrific gale still harassed us, the last ray of hope was now vanishing.
21 Lao despues di apmam na timañocho, tumojgue si Pablo gui entaloñija ya ilegña: Señores, yaguin inecungogyo, ti tadingo Creta para tagana este na ninalamen yan minalingo.
When for a long time they had taken but little food, Paul, standing up among them, said, "Sirs, you ought to have listened to me and not have sailed from Crete. You would then have escaped this suffering and loss.
22 Lao pago juencatga jamyo na namauleg y inangoconmiyo; sa taya ni un taotao gui entre jamyo ufalingo y linâlâña, na y batcoja.
But now take courage, for there will be no destruction of life among you, but of the ship only.
23 Sa tumotojgue gui oriyajo pago na puenge y angjet Yuus, ni y jayeyo, yan jaye y jusetbe.
For there stood by my side, last night, an angel of the God to whom I belong, and whom also I worship,
24 Ya ilegña: Chamo maaañao Pablo; sa nesesita unmacone guato gui menan Sesat; ya estagüeja na ninae jao as Yuus ni ayo sija y mangachochongmo gui batco.
and he said, "'Dismiss all fear, Paul, for you must stand before Caesar; and God has granted you the lives of all who are sailing with you.'
25 Enaomina señores, namauleg y inangoconmiyo; sa jujonggue na si Yuus, utaegüijeja y esta jasanganeyo.
"Therefore, Sirs, take courage; for I believe God, and am convinced that things will happen exactly as I have been told.
26 Lao nesesita tayutejit gui jilo un isla.
But we are to be stranded on a certain island."
27 Ya anae mato y mina catorse na puenge, taegüigüijeja jachuchulejajam papa yan julo tasen Adratico, ya y buente tatalopuenge, jinasonñija y marinero sija na esta manjijot gui un tano.
It was now the fourteenth night, and we were drifting through the Sea of Adria, when, about midnight, the sailors suspected that land was close at hand.
28 Ya masondalea, ya masoda biente brasa; ya anae manjanao didide mona, masondalea talo, ya masoda quinse brasa.
So they hove the lead and found twenty fathoms of water; and after a short time they hove again and found fifteen fathoms.
29 Ayonae manmaañaojam, na nosea infanbasnag gui jilo y acho, ya mayute cuatro na angcla juyong gui popa, ya madesesea na umanana.
Then for fear of possibly running on rocks, they threw out four anchors from the stern and waited impatiently for daylight.
30 Ya y marinero cumequefanmalago gui batco anae esta manatunog y bote gui tase, ya jinasonñija na siña ujayute y angcla gui proa.
The sailors, however, wanted to make their escape from the ship, and had lowered the boat into the sea, pretending that they were going to lay out anchors from the bow.
31 Ya si Pablo ilegña ni y senturion yan y sendalo sija: Yaguin ti mañaga estesija gui batco, ti siña jamyo mansatbo.
But Paul, addressing Julius and the soldiers, said, "Your lives will be sacrificed, unless these men remain on board."
32 Ayonae y sendalo sija, jautot y tale todo gui bote, ya jasotta na upodong.
Then the soldiers cut the ropes of the ship's boat and let her fall off.
33 Ya anae manana, si Pablo jagagao sija todos na ujafañocho, ilegña: Este y mina catorse na jaane ni y tanananggaja, sisiguejajit di manayunat, ti mañochojit ni jafa.
And continually, up till daybreak, Paul kept urging all on board to take some food. "This is the fourteenth day," he said, "that you have been anxiously waiting for the storm to cease, and have fasted, eating little or nothing.
34 Enaomina jutatayuyut jamyo na infañocho, sa este para linâlâmiyo: sa ni uno gui gapon ulonmiyo ufalingo guiya jamyo.
I therefore strongly advise you to take some food. This is essential for your safety. For not a hair will perish from the head of any one of you."
35 Ya anae munjayan jasangan este, jachule y pan ya janae grasia si Yuus gui menañija todos: ya anae jaipe, jatutujon cumano.
Having said this he took some bread, and, after giving thanks to God for it before them all, he broke it in pieces and began to eat it.
36 Ya ayo todo sija y manmauleg minagofñija, mañocho locue.
This raised the spirits of all, and they too took food.
37 Ya jame todos ni y manestaba gui batco, dosientos setenta y saes na taotao sija.
There were 276 of us, crew and passengers, all told.
38 Ya anae manjaspog, manañajlalang y batco, ya mayute y trigo gui jalom tase.
After eating a hearty meal they lightened the ship by throwing the wheat overboard.
39 Ya anae manana, ti matungo y tano: lao masoda un diquique na sadog na guaja oriyaña; ya jinasoñija na ujanajalom y batco.
When daylight came, they tried in vain to recognise the coast. But an inlet with a sandy beach attracted their attention, and now their object was, if possible, to run the ship aground in this inlet.
40 Ya anae manmajatsa y angcla ya masotta gui tase, ya manmapula y tale y timon, ya jajatsa y layag para y manglo, ya jatutujon manjanao para y oriyan tase.
So they cut away the anchors and left them in the sea, unloosing at the same time the bands which secured the paddle-rudders. Then, hoisting the foresail to the wind, they made for the beach.
41 Ya podong gui jalom un lugat anae umasoda y dos tase, ya malago y batco gui jilo tano; ya y sanmena na patte cheton, ya sumagaja ti siña calamten, lao y santate na patte mayamag ni y finijom y napo sija.
But coming to a place where two seas met, they stranded the ship, and her bow sticking fast remained immovable, while the stern began to go to pieces under the heavy hammering of the sea.
42 Ya manatungo y sendalo sija, na ujapuno todo y preso sija, na nosea uguaja guiya sija tumungo numango ya uescapa.
Now the soldiers recommended that the prisoners should be killed, for fear some one of them might swim ashore and effect his escape.
43 Lao y senturion malago na unasatbo si Pablo, ya jaadaje sija gui jinasoñija; ya manago na y siña numango uyute sija finena gui tase, ya ujafanjanao para y tano.
But their Captain, bent on securing Paul's safety, kept them from their purpose and gave orders that those who could swim should first jump overboard and get to land;
44 Ya y manetejnan, palo gui jilo tabbla, yan palo gui pidason mayamag batco, ya taegüenao nae manmalofan, ya todo sija mansatbo ya manescapa seguro para y tano.
and that the rest should follow, some on planks, and others on various things from the ship. In this way they all got safely to land.
