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.
ut autem iudicatum est eum navigare in Italiam et tradi Paulum cum reliquis custodiis centurioni nomine Iulio cohortis Augustae
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.
ascendentes autem navem hadrumetinam incipientem navigare circa Asiae loca sustulimus perseverante nobiscum Aristarcho Macedone Thessalonicense
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.
sequenti autem die devenimus Sidonem humane autem tractans Iulius Paulum permisit ad amicos ire et curam sui agere
4 And from thence we launched, and sayled hard by Cyprus, because ye windes were contrarie.
et inde cum sustulissemus subnavigavimus Cypro propterea quod essent venti contrarii
5 Then sayled we ouer the sea by Cilicia, and Pamphilia, and came to Myra, a citie in Lycia.
et pelagus Ciliciae et Pamphiliae navigantes venimus Lystram quae est Lyciae
6 And there the Centurion found a ship of Alexandria, sayling into Italie, and put vs therein.
et ibi inveniens centurio navem alexandrinam navigantem in Italiam transposuit nos in eam
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,
et cum multis diebus tarde navigaremus et vix devenissemus contra Cnidum prohibente nos vento adnavigavimus Cretae secundum Salmonem
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.
et vix iuxta navigantes venimus in locum quendam qui vocatur Boni portus cui iuxta erat civitas Thalassa
9 So when much time was spent, and sayling was now ieopardous, because also the Fast was nowe passed, Paul exhorted them,
multo autem tempore peracto et cum iam non esset tuta navigatio eo quod et ieiunium iam praeterisset consolabatur Paulus
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.
dicens eis viri video quoniam cum iniuria et multo damno non solum oneris et navis sed etiam animarum nostrarum incipit esse navigatio
11 Neuertheles the Centurion beleeued rather the gouernour and the master of the ship, then those things which were spoken of Paul.
centurio autem gubernatori et nauclerio magis credebat quam his quae a Paulo dicebantur
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.
et cum aptus portus non esset ad hiemandum plurimi statuerunt consilium navigare inde si quo modo possent devenientes Phoenice hiemare portum Cretae respicientem ad africum et ad chorum
13 And when the Southerne winde blew softly, they supposing to atteine their purpose, loosed neerer, and sailed by Candie.
adspirante autem austro aestimantes propositum se tenere cum sustulissent de Asson legebant Cretam
14 But anon after, there arose by it a stormy winde called Euroclydon.
non post multum autem misit se contra ipsam ventus typhonicus qui vocatur euroaquilo
15 And when the ship was caught, and could not resist the winde, we let her goe, and were caried away.
cumque arrepta esset navis et non posset conari in ventum data nave flatibus ferebamur
16 And we ran vnder a litle Yle named Clauda, and had much a doe to get the boat.
insulam autem quandam decurrentes quae vocatur Caudam potuimus vix obtinere scapham
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.
qua sublata adiutoriis utebantur accingentes navem timentes ne in Syrtim inciderent submisso vase sic ferebantur
18 The next day when we were tossed with an exceeding tempest, they lightened the ship.
valide autem nobis tempestate iactatis sequenti die iactum fecerunt
19 And the third day we cast out with our owne hands the tackling of the ship.
et tertia die suis manibus armamenta navis proiecerunt
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.
neque sole autem neque sideribus apparentibus per plures dies et tempestate non exigua inminente iam ablata erat spes omnis salutis nostrae
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.
et cum multa ieiunatio fuisset tunc stans Paulus in medio eorum dixit oportebat quidem o viri audito me non tollere a Creta lucrique facere iniuriam hanc et iacturam
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.
et nunc suadeo vobis bono animo esse amissio enim nullius animae erit ex vobis praeterquam navis
23 For there stood by me this night the Angel of God, whose I am, and whome I serue,
adstitit enim mihi hac nocte angelus Dei cuius sum ego et cui deservio
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.
dicens ne timeas Paule Caesari te oportet adsistere et ecce donavit tibi Deus omnes qui navigant tecum
25 Wherefore, sirs, be of good courage: for I beleeue God, that it shall be so as it hath bene tolde me.
propter quod bono animo estote viri credo enim Deo quia sic erit quemadmodum dictum est mihi
26 Howbeit, we must be cast into a certaine Iland.
in insulam autem quandam oportet nos devenire
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,
sed posteaquam quartadecima nox supervenit navigantibus nobis in Hadria circa mediam noctem suspicabantur nautae apparere sibi aliquam regionem
28 And sounded, and found it twentie fathoms: and when they had gone a litle further, they sounded againe, and found fifteene fathoms.
qui submittentes invenerunt passus viginti et pusillum inde separati invenerunt passus quindecim
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.
timentes autem ne in aspera loca incideremus de puppi mittentes anchoras quattuor optabant diem fieri
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,
nautis vero quaerentibus fugere de navi cum misissent scapham in mare sub obtentu quasi a prora inciperent anchoras extendere
31 Paul sayde vnto the Centurion and the souldiers, Except these abide in the ship, ye can not be safe.
dixit Paulus centurioni et militibus nisi hii in navi manserint vos salvi fieri non potestis
32 Then the souldiers cut off the ropes of the boat, and let it fall away.
tunc absciderunt milites funes scaphae et passi sunt eam excidere
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:
et cum lux inciperet fieri rogabat Paulus omnes sumere cibum dicens quartadecima hodie die expectantes ieiuni permanetis nihil accipientes
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.
propter quod rogo vos accipere cibum pro salute vestra quia nullius vestrum capillus de capite peribit
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.
et cum haec dixisset sumens panem gratias egit Deo in conspectu omnium et cum fregisset coepit manducare
36 Then were they all of good courage, and they also tooke meate.
animaequiores autem facti omnes et ipsi adsumpserunt cibum
37 Nowe we were in the ship in all two hundreth three score and sixteene soules.
eramus vero universae animae in navi ducentae septuaginta sex
38 And whe they had eaten ynough, they lightened the ship, and cast out the wheat into the sea.
et satiati cibo adleviabant navem iactantes triticum in mare
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.
cum autem dies factus esset terram non agnoscebant sinum vero quendam considerabant habentem litus in quem cogitabant si possent eicere navem
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.
et cum anchoras abstulissent committebant se mari simul laxantes iuncturas gubernaculorum et levato artemone secundum flatum aurae tendebant ad litus
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.
et cum incidissemus in locum bithalassum inpegerunt navem et prora quidem fixa manebat inmobilis puppis vero solvebatur a vi maris
42 Then the souldiers counsell was to kill the prisoners, least any of them, when he had swomme out, should flee away.
militum autem consilium fuit ut custodias occiderent ne quis cum enatasset effugeret
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:
centurio autem volens servare Paulum prohibuit fieri iussitque eos qui possent natare mittere se primos et evadere et ad terram exire
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.
et ceteros alios in tabulis ferebant quosdam super ea quae de navi essent et sic factum est ut omnes animae evaderent ad terram
