Djela apostolska 27
1 Kad je odlučeno da odjedrimo u Italiju, predadoše i Pavla i neke druge uznike satniku carske čete, imenom Juliju.
And when it was determined that he should sail into Italy, and that Paul, with the other prisoners, should be delivered to a centurion, named Julius, of the band Augusta,
2 Popesmo se na neku adramitsku lađu koja je imala ploviti u azijska mjesta pa otplovismo. S nama je bio Aristarh Makedonac, Solunjanin.
Going on board a ship of Adrumetum, we launched, meaning to sail by the coasts of Asia, Aristarchus, the Macedonian of Thessalonica, continuing with us.
3 Sutradan doplovismo u Sidon. Julije, koji je s Pavlom čovječno postupao, dopusti mu poći k prijateljima da se pobrinu za nj.
And the day following we came to Sidon. And Julius treating Paul courteously, permitted him to go to his friends, and to take care of himself.
4 Odande smo otplovili, jedrili uz Cipar - jer su nam vjetrovi bili protivni -
And when we had launched from thence, we sailed under Cyprus, because the winds were contrary.
5 pa preplovili more duž Cilicije i Pamfilije i stigli u Miru licijsku.
And sailing over the sea of Cilicia, and Pamphylia, we came to Lystra, which is in Lycia:
6 Ondje satnik nađe neku aleksandrijsku lađu za Italiju i ukrca nas na nju.
And there the centurion finding a ship of Alexandria sailing into Italy, removed us into it.
7 Više smo dana plovili sporo i jedva doprli do Knida. Kako nam vjetar ne dade pristati, doplovismo pod Kretu kod Salmone
And when for many days we had sailed slowly, and were scarce come over against Gnidus, the wind not suffering us, we sailed near Crete by Salmone:
8 pa jedva jedvice ploveći uza nju, stigosmo na neko mjesto zvano Dobra pristaništa, blizu kojega je grad Laseja.
And with much ado sailing by it, we came into a certain place, which is called Good-havens, nigh to which was the city of Thalassa.
9 Kad je nakon duljeg vremena plovidba već postala pogibeljna jer je Post već bio izminuo, opominjaše Pavao:
And when much time was spent, and when sailing now was dangerous, because the fast was now past, Paul comforted them,
10 “Ljudi, govorio im je, vidim da će plovidba biti nezgodna i na veliku štetu ne samo za tovar i lađu nego i za naše živote.”
Saying to them: Ye men, I see that the voyage beginneth to be with injury and much damage, not only of the lading and ship, but also of our lives.
11 Ali je satnik više vjerovao kormilaru i brodovlasniku negoli Pavlovim riječima.
But the centurion believed the pilot and the master of the ship, more than those things which were said by Paul.
12 A kako luka nije bila prikladna za zimovanje, većina je predlagala da odande otplove ne bi li kako doprli do kretske luke Feniksa, što gleda prema jugozapadu i sjeverozapadu, pa ondje prezimili.
And whereas it was not a commodious haven to winter in, the greatest part gave counsel to sail thence, if by any means they might reach Phenice to winter there, which is a haven of Crete, looking towards the southwest and northwest.
13 Uto duhne blagi južnjak i oni, misleći da bi mogli ostvariti naum, digoše sidro i zaploviše tik uz Kretu.
And the south wind gently blowing, thinking that they had obtained their purpose, when they had loosed from Asson, they sailed close by Crete.
14 Ali nedugo zatim razbjesni se žestok vjetar zvan sjeveroistočnjak.
But not long after, there arose against it a tempestuous wind, called Euroaquilo.
15 Zahvati lađu te mu nije mogla odoljeti pa se prepustismo da nas nosi.
And when the ship was caught, and could not bear up against the wind, giving up the ship to the winds, we were driven.
16 Prolazeći ispod nekog otočića zvanog Kauda, jedva uspjesmo dohvatiti čamac.
And running under a certain island, that is called Cauda, we had much work to come by the boat.
17 Podigoše ga pa upotrijebiše snast da potpašu lađu. Bojeći se pak da se ne nasuču u Sirti, spustiše prvenjaču. Tako ih je nosilo.
Which being taken up, they used helps, undergirding the ship, and fearing lest they should fall into the quicksands, they let down the sail yard, and so were driven.
18 Budući da nas je oluja silovito udarala, sutradan se riješiše tovara,
And we being mightily tossed with the tempest, the next day they lightened the ship.
19 a treći dan svojim rukama izbaciše brodsku opremu.
And the third day they cast out with their own hands the tackling of the ship.
20 Kako se pak više dana nije pomaljalo ni sunce ni zvijezde, a oluja bjesnjela nemalena, bila je već propala svaka nada da ćemo se spasiti.
And when neither sun nor stars appeared for many days, and no small storm lay on us, all hope of our being saved was now taken away.
21 Ni jelo se već dugo nije. Onda usta Pavao posred njih i reče: “Trebalo je, ljudi, poslušati me, ne se otiskivati od Krete i izbjeći ovu nepogodu i štetu.
And after they had fasted a long time, Paul standing forth in the midst of them, said: You should indeed, O ye men, have hearkened unto me, and not have loosed from Crete, and have gained this harm and loss.
22 Sada vas pak opominjem: razvedrite se jer ni živa duša između vas neće stradati, nego samo lađa.
And now I exhort you to be of good cheer. For there shall be no loss of any man’s life among you, but only of the ship.
23 Noćas mi se ukaza anđeo Boga čiji sam i komu služim
For an angel of God, whose I am, and whom I serve, stood by me this night,
24 te reče: 'Ne boj se, Pavle! Pred cara ti je stati i evo Bog ti daruje sve koji plove s tobom.'
Saying: Fear not, Paul, thou must be brought before Caesar; and behold, God hath given thee all them that sail with thee.
25 Zato razvedrite se, ljudi! Vjerujem Bogu: bit će kako mi je rečeno.
Wherefore, sirs, be of good cheer; for I believe God that it shall so be, as it hath been told me.
26 Ali treba da se nasučemo na neki otok.”
And we must come unto a certain island.
27 Bijaše već četrnaesta noć što smo bili tamo-amo gonjani po Jadranu kad oko ponoći naslutiše mornari da im se primiče neka zemlja.
But after the fourteenth night was come, as we were sailing in Adria, about midnight, the shipmen deemed that they discovered some country.
28 Bacivši olovnicu, nađoše dvadeset hvati dubine; malo poslije baciše je opet i nađoše ih petnaest.
Who also sounding, found twenty fathoms; and going on a little further, they found fifteen fathoms.
29 Kako se bojahu da ne naletimo na grebene, baciše s krme četiri sidra iščekujući da se razdani.
Then fearing lest we should fall upon rough places, they cast four anchors out of the stern, and wished for the day.
30 Kad su mornari bili naumili uteći iz lađe i počeli spuštati čamac u more pod izlikom da s pramca kane spustiti sidra,
But as the shipmen sought to fly out of the ship, having let down the boat into the sea, under colour, as though they would have cast anchors out of the forepart of the ship,
31 reče Pavao satniku i vojnicima: “Ako ovi ne ostanu na lađi, vi se spasiti ne možete!”
Paul said to the centurion, and to the soldiers: Except these stay in the ship, you cannot be saved.
32 Nato vojnici presjekoše užad čamca i pustiše da padne.
Then the soldiers cut off the ropes of the boat, and let her fall off.
33 Do pred svanuće nutkao je Pavao sve da uzmu hrane: “Četrnaesti je danas dan, reče, što bez jela čekate, ništa ne okusivši.
And when it began to be light, Paul besought them all to take meat, saying: This day is the fourteenth day that you have waited, and continued fasting, taking nothing.
34 Stoga vas molim: založite nešto jer to je za vaš spas. Ta nikome od vas ni vlas s glave neće propasti.”
Wherefore I pray you to take some meat for your health’s sake; for there shall not an hair of the head of any of you perish.
35 Rekavši to, uze kruh, pred svima zahvali Bogu, razlomi i stade jesti.
And when he had said these things, taking bread, he gave thanks to God in the sight of them all; and when he had broken it, he began to eat.
36 Svi se razvedre te i oni uzmu hrane.
Then were they all of better cheer, and they also took some meat.
37 A svih nas je u lađi bilo dvjesta sedamdeset i šest duša.
And we were in all in the ship, two hundred threescore and sixteen souls.
38 Jednom nasićeni, stanu rasterećivati lađu bacajući žito u more.
And when they had eaten enough, they lightened the ship, casting the wheat into the sea.
39 Kad osvanu, mornari ne prepoznaše zemlje; razabraše neki zaljev ravne obale pa odluče, bude li moguće, u nj zavesti lađu.
And when it was day, they knew not the land; but they discovered a certain creek that had a shore, into which they minded, if they could, to thrust in the ship.
40 Odriješe sidra i ostave ih u moru. Istodobno popuste i spone kormila, razapnu prvenjaču prema vjetru pa udare k obali.
And when they had taken up the anchors, they committed themselves to the sea, loosing withal the rudder bands; and hoisting up the mainsail to the wind, they made towards shore.
41 Ali naletješe na plićak i nasukaše brod: pramac, nasađen, osta nepomičan, a krmu razdiraše žestina valova.
And when we were fallen into a place where two seas met, they run the ship aground; and the forepart indeed, sticking fast, remained unmoveable: but the hinder part was broken with the violence of the sea.
42 Tada vojnici naumiše poubijati sužnje da ne bi koji isplivao i pobjegao,
And the soldiers’ counsel was, that they should kill the prisoners, lest any of them, swimming out, should escape.
43 ali im satnik, hoteći spasiti Pavla, omete naum: zapovjedi da oni koji znaju plivati najprvi poskaču i izađu na kraj,
But the centurion, willing to save Paul, forbade it to be done; and he commanded that they who could swim, should cast themselves first into the sea, and save themselves, and get to land.
44 a ostali će, tko na daskama, tko na olupinama lađe. Tako svi živi i zdravi prispješe na kopno.
And the rest, some they carried on boards, and some on those things that belonged to the ship. And so it came to pass, that every soul got safe to land.
