< Acts 27 >

1 Now when it was concluded, that we should sayle into Italie, they deliuered both Paul, and certaine other prisoners vnto a Centurion named Iulius, of the band of Augustus.
ωσ δε εκριθη του αποπλειν ημασ εισ την ιταλιαν παρεδιδουν τον τε παυλον και τινασ ετερουσ δεσμωτασ εκατονταρχη ονοματι ιουλιω σπειρησ σεβαστησ
2 And we entred into a ship of Adramyttium purposing to saile by the coastes of Asia, and launched foorth, and had Aristarchus of Macedonia, a Thessalonian, with vs.
επιβαντεσ δε πλοιω αδραμυττηνω μελλοντεσ πλειν τουσ κατα την ασιαν τοπουσ ανηχθημεν οντοσ συν ημιν αρισταρχου μακεδονοσ θεσσαλονικεωσ
3 And the next day we arriued at Sidon: and Iulius courteously entreated Paul, and gaue him libertie to go vnto his friends, that they might refresh him.
τη τε ετερα κατηχθημεν εισ σιδωνα φιλανθρωπωσ τε ο ιουλιοσ τω παυλω χρησαμενοσ επετρεψεν προσ τουσ φιλουσ πορευθεντα επιμελειασ τυχειν
4 And from thence we launched, and sayled hard by Cyprus, because ye windes were contrarie.
κακειθεν αναχθεντεσ υπεπλευσαμεν την κυπρον δια το τουσ ανεμουσ ειναι εναντιουσ
5 Then sayled we ouer the sea by Cilicia, and Pamphilia, and came to Myra, a citie in Lycia.
το τε πελαγοσ το κατα την κιλικιαν και παμφυλιαν διαπλευσαντεσ κατηλθομεν εισ μυρα τησ λυκιασ
6 And there the Centurion found a ship of Alexandria, sayling into Italie, and put vs therein.
κακει ευρων ο εκατονταρχοσ πλοιον αλεξανδρινον πλεον εισ την ιταλιαν ενεβιβασεν ημασ εισ αυτο
7 And when we had sayled slowly many dayes, and scarce were come against Gnidum, because the winde suffered vs not, we sailed hard by Candie, neere to Salmone,
εν ικαναισ δε ημεραισ βραδυπλοουντεσ και μολισ γενομενοι κατα την κνιδον μη προσεωντοσ ημασ του ανεμου υπεπλευσαμεν την κρητην κατα σαλμωνην
8 And with much adoe sayled beyond it, and came vnto a certaine place called the Faire hauens, neere vnto the which was the citie Lasea.
μολισ τε παραλεγομενοι αυτην ηλθομεν εισ τοπον τινα καλουμενον καλουσ λιμενασ ω εγγυσ ην πολισ λασαια
9 So when much time was spent, and sayling was now ieopardous, because also the Fast was nowe passed, Paul exhorted them,
ικανου δε χρονου διαγενομενου και οντοσ ηδη επισφαλουσ του πλοοσ δια το και την νηστειαν ηδη παρεληλυθεναι παρηνει ο παυλοσ
10 And sayde vnto them, Syrs, I see that this voiage will be with hurt and much damage, not of the lading and ship onely, but also of our liues.
λεγων αυτοισ ανδρεσ θεωρω οτι μετα υβρεωσ και πολλησ ζημιασ ου μονον του φορτιου και του πλοιου αλλα και των ψυχων ημων μελλειν εσεσθαι τον πλουν
11 Neuertheles the Centurion beleeued rather the gouernour and the master of the ship, then those things which were spoken of Paul.
ο δε εκατονταρχησ τω κυβερνητη και τω ναυκληρω επειθετο μαλλον η τοισ υπο του παυλου λεγομενοισ
12 And because the hauen was not commodious to winter in, many tooke counsell to depart thence, if by any meanes they might attaine to Phenice, there to winter, which is an hauen of Candie, and lyeth toward the Southwest and by West, and Northwest and by West.
ανευθετου δε του λιμενοσ υπαρχοντοσ προσ παραχειμασιαν οι πλειουσ εθεντο βουλην αναχθηναι κακειθεν ει πωσ δυναιντο καταντησαντεσ εισ φοινικα παραχειμασαι λιμενα τησ κρητησ βλεποντα κατα λιβα και κατα χωρον
13 And when the Southerne winde blew softly, they supposing to atteine their purpose, loosed neerer, and sailed by Candie.
υποπνευσαντοσ δε νοτου δοξαντεσ τησ προθεσεωσ κεκρατηκεναι αραντεσ ασσον παρελεγοντο την κρητην
14 But anon after, there arose by it a stormy winde called Euroclydon.
μετ ου πολυ δε εβαλεν κατ αυτησ ανεμοσ τυφωνικοσ ο καλουμενοσ ευροκλυδων
15 And when the ship was caught, and could not resist the winde, we let her goe, and were caried away.
συναρπασθεντοσ δε του πλοιου και μη δυναμενου αντοφθαλμειν τω ανεμω επιδοντεσ εφερομεθα
16 And we ran vnder a litle Yle named Clauda, and had much a doe to get the boat.
νησιον δε τι υποδραμοντεσ καλουμενον κλαυδην μολισ ισχυσαμεν περικρατεισ γενεσθαι τησ σκαφησ
17 Which they tooke vp and vsed all helpe, vndergirding the ship, fearing least they should haue fallen into Syrtes, and they strake saile, and so were caried.
ην αραντεσ βοηθειαισ εχρωντο υποζωννυντεσ το πλοιον φοβουμενοι τε μη εισ την συρτην εκπεσωσιν χαλασαντεσ το σκευοσ ουτωσ εφεροντο
18 The next day when we were tossed with an exceeding tempest, they lightened the ship.
σφοδρωσ δε χειμαζομενων ημων τη εξησ εκβολην εποιουντο
19 And the third day we cast out with our owne hands the tackling of the ship.
και τη τριτη αυτοχειρεσ την σκευην του πλοιου ερριψαμεν
20 And when neither sunne nor starres in many dayes appeared, and no small tempest lay vpon vs, all hope that we should be saued, was then taken away.
μητε δε ηλιου μητε αστρων επιφαινοντων επι πλειονασ ημερασ χειμωνοσ τε ουκ ολιγου επικειμενου λοιπον περιηρειτο πασα ελπισ του σωζεσθαι ημασ
21 But after long abstinece, Paul stood forth in the mids of them, and said, Syrs, ye should haue hearkened to me, and not haue loosed from Candie: so should ye haue gained this hurt and losse.
πολλησ δε ασιτιασ υπαρχουσησ τοτε σταθεισ ο παυλοσ εν μεσω αυτων ειπεν εδει μεν ω ανδρεσ πειθαρχησαντασ μοι μη αναγεσθαι απο τησ κρητησ κερδησαι τε την υβριν ταυτην και την ζημιαν
22 But now I exhort you to be of good courage: for there shalbe no losse of any mans life among you, saue of the ship onely.
και τα νυν παραινω υμασ ευθυμειν αποβολη γαρ ψυχησ ουδεμια εσται εξ υμων πλην του πλοιου
23 For there stood by me this night the Angel of God, whose I am, and whome I serue,
παρεστη γαρ μοι ταυτη τη νυκτι αγγελοσ του θεου ου ειμι ω και λατρευω
24 Saying, Feare not, Paul: for thou must be brought before Cesar: and lo, God hath giuen vnto thee freely all that sayle with thee.
λεγων μη φοβου παυλε καισαρι σε δει παραστηναι και ιδου κεχαρισται σοι ο θεοσ παντασ τουσ πλεοντασ μετα σου
25 Wherefore, sirs, be of good courage: for I beleeue God, that it shall be so as it hath bene tolde me.
διο ευθυμειτε ανδρεσ πιστευω γαρ τω θεω οτι ουτωσ εσται καθ ον τροπον λελαληται μοι
26 Howbeit, we must be cast into a certaine Iland.
εισ νησον δε τινα δει ημασ εκπεσειν
27 And when ye fourteenth night was come, as we were caried to and from in the Adriaticall sea about midnight, the shipmen deemed that some countrey approched vnto them,
ωσ δε τεσσαρεσκαιδεκατη νυξ εγενετο διαφερομενων ημων εν τω αδρια κατα μεσον τησ νυκτοσ υπενοουν οι ναυται προσαγειν τινα αυτοισ χωραν
28 And sounded, and found it twentie fathoms: and when they had gone a litle further, they sounded againe, and found fifteene fathoms.
και βολισαντεσ ευρον οργυιασ εικοσι βραχυ δε διαστησαντεσ και παλιν βολισαντεσ ευρον οργυιασ δεκαπεντε
29 Then fearing least they should haue fallen into some rough places, they cast foure ancres out of the sterne, and wished that the day were come.
φοβουμενοι τε μηπωσ εισ τραχεισ τοπουσ εκπεσωμεν εκ πρυμνησ ριψαντεσ αγκυρασ τεσσαρασ ηυχοντο ημεραν γενεσθαι
30 Nowe as the mariners were about to flee out of the ship, and had let downe the boat into the sea vnder a colour as though they would haue cast ankers out of the foreship,
των δε ναυτων ζητουντων φυγειν εκ του πλοιου και χαλασαντων την σκαφην εισ την θαλασσαν προφασει ωσ εκ πρωρασ μελλοντων αγκυρασ εκτεινειν
31 Paul sayde vnto the Centurion and the souldiers, Except these abide in the ship, ye can not be safe.
ειπεν ο παυλοσ τω εκατονταρχη και τοισ στρατιωταισ εαν μη ουτοι μεινωσιν εν τω πλοιω υμεισ σωθηναι ου δυνασθε
32 Then the souldiers cut off the ropes of the boat, and let it fall away.
τοτε οι στρατιωται απεκοψαν τα σχοινια τησ σκαφησ και ειασαν αυτην εκπεσειν
33 And when it began to be day, Paul exhorted them all to take meate, saying, This is the fourteenth day that ye haue taried, and continued fasting, receiuing nothing:
αχρι δε ου ημελλεν ημερα γινεσθαι παρεκαλει ο παυλοσ απαντασ μεταλαβειν τροφησ λεγων τεσσαρεσκαιδεκατην σημερον ημεραν προσδοκωντεσ ασιτοι διατελειτε μηδεν προσλαβομενοι
34 Wherefore I exhort you to take meate: for this is for your safegarde: for there shall not an heare fall from the head of any of you.
διο παρακαλω υμασ προσλαβειν τροφησ τουτο γαρ προσ τησ υμετερασ σωτηριασ υπαρχει ουδενοσ γαρ υμων θριξ εκ τησ κεφαλησ πεσειται
35 And when he had thus spoken, hee tooke bread and gaue thankes to God, in presence of them all, and brake it, and began to eate.
ειπων δε ταυτα και λαβων αρτον ευχαριστησεν τω θεω ενωπιον παντων και κλασασ ηρξατο εσθιειν
36 Then were they all of good courage, and they also tooke meate.
ευθυμοι δε γενομενοι παντεσ και αυτοι προσελαβοντο τροφησ
37 Nowe we were in the ship in all two hundreth three score and sixteene soules.
ημεν δε εν τω πλοιω αι πασαι ψυχαι διακοσιαι εβδομηκοντα εξ
38 And whe they had eaten ynough, they lightened the ship, and cast out the wheat into the sea.
κορεσθεντεσ δε τησ τροφησ εκουφιζον το πλοιον εκβαλλομενοι τον σιτον εισ την θαλασσαν
39 And when it was day, they knewe not the countrey, but they spied a certaine creeke with a banke, into the which they were minded (if it were possible) to thrust in the ship.
οτε δε ημερα εγενετο την γην ουκ επεγινωσκον κολπον δε τινα κατενοουν εχοντα αιγιαλον εισ ον εβουλευσαντο ει δυνατον εξωσαι το πλοιον
40 So when they had taken vp the ankers, they committed the ship vnto the sea, and loosed the rudder bonds, and hoised vp the maine saile to the winde, and drewe to the shore.
και τασ αγκυρασ περιελοντεσ ειων εισ την θαλασσαν αμα ανεντεσ τασ ζευκτηριασ των πηδαλιων και επαραντεσ τον αρτεμονα τη πνεουση κατειχον εισ τον αιγιαλον
41 And when they fell into a place, where two seas met, they thrust in the ship: and the forepart stucke fast, and could not be moued, but the hinderpart was broken with the violence of the waues.
περιπεσοντεσ δε εισ τοπον διθαλασσον επωκειλαν την ναυν και η μεν πρωρα ερεισασα εμεινεν ασαλευτοσ η δε πρυμνα ελυετο υπο τησ βιασ των κυματων
42 Then the souldiers counsell was to kill the prisoners, least any of them, when he had swomme out, should flee away.
των δε στρατιωτων βουλη εγενετο ινα τουσ δεσμωτασ αποκτεινωσιν μη τισ εκκολυμβησασ διαφυγη
43 But the Centurion willing to saue Paul, stayed them from this counsell, and commanded that they that coulde swimme, shoulde cast them selues first into the sea, and goe out to land:
ο δε εκατονταρχοσ βουλομενοσ διασωσαι τον παυλον εκωλυσεν αυτουσ του βουληματοσ εκελευσεν τε τουσ δυναμενουσ κολυμβαν απορριψαντασ πρωτουσ επι την γην εξιεναι
44 And the other, some on boardes, and some on certaine pieces of the ship: and so it came to passe that they came all safe to land.
και τουσ λοιπουσ ουσ μεν επι σανισιν ουσ δε επι τινων των απο του πλοιου και ουτωσ εγενετο παντασ διασωθηναι επι την γην
