< Acts 27 >

1 Then it was decided to send him by ship to Italy, and that Paul, with the others in custody, should be delivered to a centurion named Julius, of the cohort of Augusta.
A když bylo již usouzeno, abychom my se plavili do Vlach, poručen jest i Pavel i někteří jiní vězňové setníku, jménem Juliovi, kterýž byl nad houfem Augustovým.
2 After climbing aboard a ship from Adramyttium, we set sail and began to navigate along the ports of Asia, with Aristarchus, the Macedonian from Thessalonica, joining us.
Tedy všedše na lodí Adramyttenskou, abychom se plavili podlé krajin Azie, pustili jsme se. A byl s námi Aristarchus Macedonský z Tessaloniky.
3 And on the following day, we arrived at Sidon. And Julius, treating Paul humanely, permitted him to go to his friends and to look after himself.
Druhý pak den připlavili jsme se k Sidonu. A tu Julius přívětivě se maje ku Pavlovi, dopustil mu, aby jda k přátelům, u nich měl pohodlí.
4 And when we had set sail from there, we navigated below Cyprus, because the winds were contrary.
A berouce se odtud, plavili jsme se podlé Cypru, proto že byli větrové odporní.
5 And navigating though the sea of Cilicia and Pamphylia, we arrived at Lystra, which is in Lycia.
A tak přeplavivše se přes moře Cilické a Pamfylické, přišli jsme do Myry, města Lycického.
6 And there the centurion found a ship from Alexandria sailing to Italy, and he transferred us to it.
A tu našed setník bárku Alexandrinskou, kteráž měla plouti do Vlach, uvedl nás na ni.
7 And when we had sailed slowly for many days and had barely arrived opposite Cnidus, for the wind was hindering us, we sailed to Crete, near Salmone.
A když jsme za mnoho dní znenáhla se plavili, a sotva přijeli proti Gnidum, proto že vítr nám bránil, i podjeli jsme Krétu podlé Salmóny.
8 And barely being able to sail past it, we arrived at a certain place, which is called Good Shelter, next to which was the city of Lasea.
A sotva ji pomíjeti mohše, přijeli jsme na jedno místo, kteréž slove Pěkný břeh, od kteréhož nedaleko bylo město Lasea.
9 Then, after much time had passed, and since sailing would no longer be prudent because the Fast Day had now passed, Paul consoled them,
Když pak drahný čas přešel, a již bylo nebezpečné plavení, (nebo již byl i půst pominul, ) napomínal Pavel,
10 and he said to them: “Men, I perceive that the voyage is now in danger of injury and much damage, not only to the cargo and the ship, but also to our own lives.”
Řka jim: Muži, vidím, že s ublížením a s mnohou škodou netoliko nákladu a lodí, ale i životů našich toto plavení bude.
11 But the centurion put more trust in the captain and the navigator of the ship, than in the things being said by Paul.
Ale setník více věřil správci lodí a marináři, než tomu, co Pavel pravil.
12 And since it was not a fitting port in which to winter, the majority opinion was to sail from there, so that somehow they might be able to arrive at Phoenicia, in order to winter there, at a port of Crete, which looks out toward the southwest and northwest.
A když nebylo tu příhodného přístavu, kdež by pobyli přes zimu, mnozí tak radili, aby se předce pustili odtud, zda by jak mohli, přijedouce do Fenicen, přes zimu tu pobyti na břehu Kréty, kterýž leží k větru nešpornímu, a k větru mezi západním a půlnočním vějícímu.
13 And since the south wind was blowing gently, they thought that they might reach their goal. And after they had set out from Asson, they weighed anchor at Crete.
A když počal vítr víti od poledne, za to měli, že se budou umíněnou cestou držeti, ale pustivše se, jeli blízko Kréty.
14 But not long afterward, a violent wind came against them, which is called the Northeast Wind.
Po neveliké pak chvíli udeřil na ně vítr bouřlivý půlnoční, kterýž slove Euroklydon.
15 And once the ship had been caught in it and was not able to strive against the wind, giving over the ship to the winds, we were driven along.
A když lodí zachvácena byla, a nemohla odolati větru, pustivše, tak jsme se vezli.
16 Then, being forced along a certain island, which is called the Tail, we were barely able to hold on to the ship’s lifeboat.
A v běhu snešeni byvše pod jeden ostrov neveliký, kterýž slove Klauda, sotva jsme mohli obdržeti člun.
17 When this was taken up, they used it to assist in securing the ship. For they were afraid that they might run aground. And having lowered the sails, they were being driven along in this way.
Kterýž zdvihše, pomoci užívali, podpásavše bárku; a bojíce se, aby neuhodili na místo nebezpečné, spustivše plachtu, tak se plavili.
18 Then, since we were being tossed about strongly by the tempest, on the following day, they threw the heavy items overboard.
A když bouře vichrová námi velmi zmítala, nazejtří náklad ven metali.
19 And on the third day, with their own hands, they threw the equipment of the ship overboard.
A v třetí den i to nádobí bárce potřebné svýma rukama vyházeli jsme.
20 Then, when neither sun nor stars appeared for many days, and no end to the storm was imminent, all hope for our safety was now taken away.
A když ani slunce se neukázalo ani hvězdy za mnoho dní, a bouře vždy větší nastávala, již byla všecka naděje o vysvobození našem odjata.
21 And after they had fasted for a long time, Paul, standing in their midst, said: “Certainly, men, you should have listened to me and not set out from Crete, so as to cause this injury and loss.
A když jsme již byli hladem velmi ztrápeni, tehdy stoje Pavel u prostřed nich, řekl: Měli jste zajisté, ó muži, uposlechnouce mne, nehýbati se od Kréty, a uvarovati se nebezpečenství tohoto a škody.
22 And now, let me persuade you to be courageous in soul. For there shall be no loss of life among you, but only of the ship.
A i nyní vás napomínám, abyste dobré mysli byli; neboť nezahyne žádný z vás, kromě bárky samé.
23 For an Angel of God, who is assigned to me and whom I serve, stood beside me this night,
Nebo této noci ukázal mi se anděl Boha toho, jehož já jsem, a kterémuž sloužím,
24 saying: ‘Do not be afraid, Paul! It is necessary for you to stand before Caesar. And behold, God has given to you all those who are sailing with you.’
Řka: Neboj se, Pavle, před císařem máš státi, a aj, dalť tobě Bůh všecky, kteříž se plaví s tebou.
25 Because of this, men, be courageous in soul. For I trust God that this will happen in the same way that it has been told to me.
Protož buďte dobré mysli, muži; neboť věřím Bohu, že se tak stane, jakž jest mi mluveno.
26 But it is necessary for us to arrive at a certain island.”
Mámeť se pak dostati na nějaký ostrov.
27 Then, after the fourteenth night arrived, as we were navigating in the sea of Adria, about the middle of the night, the sailors believed that they saw some portion of the land.
A když již byla čtrnáctá noc, a my se plavili po moři Adriatickém, okolo půlnoci, domnívali se plavci, že by se jim okazovala krajina nějaká.
28 And upon dropping a weight, they found a depth of twenty paces. And some distance from there, they found a depth of fifteen paces.
Kteříž spustivše olovnici, nalezli hlubokost dvadcíti loktů; a odjevše odtud maličko, opět spustivše olovnici, nalezli patnácti loktů.
29 Then, fearing that we might happen upon rough places, they cast four anchors out of the stern, and they were hoping for daylight to arrive soon.
A bojíce se, aby na místa skalnatá neuhodili, spustivše z bárky čtyři kotve, žádali, aby den byl.
30 Yet truly, the sailors were seeking a way to flee from the ship, for they had lowered a lifeboat into the sea, on the pretext that they were attempting to cast anchors from the bow of the ship.
Když pak chtěli marináři uteci z bárky, a pustiti člun do moře, pod zámyslem, jako by chtěli od předku lodí kotve roztahovati,
31 So Paul said to the centurion and to the soldiers, “Unless these men remain in the ship, you will not be able to be saved.”
Řekl Pavel setníkovi a žoldnéřům: Nezůstanou-li tito na lodí, vy nebudete moci zachováni býti.
32 Then the soldiers cut the ropes to the lifeboat, and they allowed it to fall.
Tedy žoldnéři utínali provazy u člunu, a pustili jej, aby pryč plynul.
33 And when it began to be light, Paul requested that they all take food, saying: “This is the fourteenth day that you have been waiting and continuing to fast, taking nothing.
A když již dnělo, napomínal Pavel všech, aby pojedli, řka: Již jest tomu dnes čtrnáctý den, jakž očekávajíce, trváte lační, nic nejedouce.
34 For this reason, I beg you to accept food for the sake of your health. For not a hair from the head of any of you shall perish.”
Protož prosím vás, abyste pojedli, neboť to k zachování vašeho zdraví slouží; žádnéhoť zajisté z vás vlas s hlavy nespadne.
35 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.
To pověděv, a vzav chléb, díky vzdával Bohu přede všemi, a rozlomiv, počal jísti.
36 Then they all became more peaceful in soul. And they also took food.
A tak potěšeni byvše všickni, pojedli i oni.
37 Truly, we were two hundred and seventy-six souls on the ship.
Bylo pak nás všech osob na lodí dvě stě sedmdesáte a šest.
38 And having been nourished with food, they lightened the ship, casting the wheat into the sea.
A nasyceni byvše pokrmem, oblehčovali bárku, vysýpajíce pšenici do moře.
39 And when day had arrived, they did not recognize the landscape. Yet truly, they caught sight of a certain narrow inlet having a shore, into which they thought it might be possible to force the ship.
A když byl den, nemohli země viděti, než okřídlí nějaké znamenali, ano má břeh, k němuž myslili, kdyby jak mohli přistati s lodí.
40 And when they had taken up the anchors, they committed themselves to the sea, at the same time loosing the restraints of the rudders. And so, raising the mainsail to the gusting wind, they pressed on toward the shore.
A vytáhše kotvy, pustili se po moři, rozpustivše také provazy pravidl; a zdvihše plachtu k větru, táhli se k břehu.
41 And when we happened upon a place open to two seas, they ran the ship aground. And indeed, the bow, being immobilized, remained fixed, but truly the stern was broken by the violence of the sea.
Ale když trefili na to místo, kdež se dvoje moře schází, tu se zastavila lodí. A přední konec lodí uváznutý stál, nehýbaje se, zadní pak konec lámal se násilím vln.
42 Then the soldiers were in agreement that they should kill the prisoners, lest anyone, after escaping by swimming, might flee.
Tedy žoldnéři radili, aby vězně zmordovali, aby jim některý vyplyna, neutekl.
43 But the centurion, wanting to save Paul, prohibited it from being done. And he ordered those who were able to swim to jump in first, and to escape, and to get to the land.
Ale setník chtěje zachovati Pavla, nedal toho učiniti. I rozkázal těm, kteříž mohli plovati, aby se pustili nejprv, a vyplynuli na zem,
44 And as for the others, some they carried on boards, and others on those things that belonged to the ship. And so it happened that every soul escaped to the land.
Jiní pak na dskách, a někteří na kusích lodí. A tak se stalo, že všickni zdraví vyšli na zemi.
