< Acts 27 >
1 Now, when it was determined that we should sail for Italy, they proceeded to deliver Paul, and certain other prisoners, unto a centurion by name Julius, of an Augustan band.
Basa ma, hofernor Festus naꞌetuꞌ fo haitua Paulus nisiꞌ mane monaeꞌ Keser sia Roma, fo naꞌetuꞌ dedꞌea na sia naa. Ana fee Paulus, no atahori bui feaꞌ ra, risiꞌ malangga soldꞌadꞌu esa, naran Yulius, fo ro se risiꞌ nusaꞌ Italia. Yulius ia, malangga monaeꞌ esa mia soldꞌadꞌu mana manea kaiser.
2 And, going on board a ship of Adramittium, about to sail unto the places along the coast of Asia, we put to sea, there being with us, Aristarchus, a Macedonian of Thessalonica;
Leleꞌ naa, au (Lukas) tungga o Paulus. Ma toronooꞌ esa fai, nara na Aristarkus, o tungga boe. Eni, atahori Makedonia mia kota Tesalonika. Basa hai sae ofaꞌ esa mana nema mia kota Adrimitium. Rafadꞌe rae, ofaꞌ ia neu tuli mamanaꞌ naeꞌ sia nusaꞌ Asia.
3 and, on the next day, we put into Zidon, —and Julius, treating Paul, kindly, gave him leave to go unto his friends and refresh himself;
Boe ma, hai lao hela Kaisarea. Mbilaꞌ neu ma, hai losa kota Sidꞌon. Malangga soldꞌadꞌu Yulius tao Paulus no maloleꞌ, ma nafadꞌe e oi, bisa muu seꞌu nonoo mara sia madꞌaꞌ ata. Nae taꞌo naa fo, ara bisa fee Paulus saa-saa fo ana parlu sia tasiꞌ ata.
4 and, from thence putting out to sea, we sailed under the lee of Cyprus, because the winds were contrary;
Basa de, hai hene seluꞌ ofaꞌ, de lao. Te anin mataꞌ a, monae na seli, de ofaꞌ a naeꞌ a nda laliꞌ sa. Ara rauli ofaꞌ, de lao tungga pulu Siprus no rae Siria taladꞌa na, fo ofaꞌ a nenebambiꞌ.
5 and, sailing across the sea which is off Cilicia and Pamphylia, we came down to Myra, a city of Lycia.
Mia naa, hai lao tungga tasiꞌ sia nusaꞌ Kilikia no Pamfilia mataꞌ. Hai mikindoo misiꞌ kota Mira, sia nusa Likia. Losa naa ma, hai onda lao hela ofaꞌ a.
6 And the centurion, there, finding a ship of Alexandria sailing for Italy, put us therein.
Malangga soldꞌadꞌu Yulius sangga ofa feaꞌ mana nae lao mia Mira nisiꞌ Italia neu. Ana hambu ofaꞌ esa, nema mia kota Aleksandria, nae lao Italia neu. De ana denu basa hai, hene ofaꞌ ata mi.
7 And, for a good many days sailing slowly, and getting with difficulty over against Cnidus, the wind not suffering us to get on, we sailed under the lee of Crete, over against Salmone;
Hai lao fai hira te, ofaꞌ a naeꞌ a nda laliiꞌ sa, huu ani mataꞌ a, monaen seli. Hai lao no sususa maeꞌ a losa kota Knidus. Te anin feꞌe seli, de hai lao nggero misiꞌ a pulu Kreta, fo nenebambiꞌ mia anin a. Basa de, hai tungga tonggoꞌ esa, nara na Salmone.
8 and, with difficulty coasting it, we came to a certain place called Fair Havens, near to which was the city of Lasea.
Hai lao no sususaꞌ tungga tonggoꞌ naa, tunggaꞌ a pulu Kreta tasi suu na. Dei de, hai feꞌe losa mamanaꞌ esa, nara na Namo Maloleꞌ. Mamanaꞌ naa, deka no kota Lasea.
9 And, when a considerable time had passed, and sailing was already dangerous, because, even the Fast, had already gone by, Paul began to advise,
Atahori ofaꞌ ra hahae mbei sia naa, huu hai sae ofaꞌ dooꞌ na seli ena, te nda feꞌe losa Italia sa. Leleꞌ naa, atahori Yahudi ra fai monae na, fo roꞌe rae, Fai Hambu Ambon Mia Sala-Singgoꞌ, seli ena. Sosoa na, fai ree-anin nae losa. Boe ma, atahori ofaꞌ ra ratane rae mae sae ofaꞌ mikindoo, do hokoꞌ. Paulus rena nala ma, ana oi,
10 saying to them—Sirs! I perceive that, with damage and great loss, not only of the cargo and of the ship, but even of our persons, shall the voyage certainly be attended.
“Toronoo nggare. Au ae olaꞌ mbei. Mete ma hita sae ofaꞌ takandoo, naa, hambu sususaꞌ naeꞌ. Afiꞌ losa ofaꞌ a molo, ma mopo saa-saa ra, ma hita o mate boe.”
11 But, the centurion, by the master, and by the shipowner, was more persuaded than by the things which, by Paul, were spoken.
Te malangga soldꞌadꞌu a nda nau rena Paulus sa. Ana namahereꞌ a joragan, no tenu ofaꞌ a, huu ara rae lao hela mamanaꞌ naa.
12 And, the harbour being, incommodious, to winter in, the more part, advised to put to sea from thence, if by any means they might be able to reach Phoenix, to winter, [which was] a harbour of Crete, looking north-east and south-east.
Sia Namo Maloleꞌ naa, ofaꞌ ra nafu nda maloleꞌ sa sia fai rii-ree. Dadꞌi sira naeꞌ nauꞌ a lao mikindoo, misiꞌ kota Feniks. Ara ramahena, mete ma bisa, naa, basa hai leo sia naa, losa fai rii-ree ia basa. Feniks naa, namo maloleꞌ sia pulu Kreta, huu nenebambiꞌ mia ani muri-onas no muri-dis, ma nda hambu ree monaeꞌ sa.
13 And, a south wind blowing softly, supposing they had secured their purpose, weighing anchor, they began to sail close in shore along Crete.
Leleꞌ ani onas koe-koe ma, ara rae neꞌo sira bisa pake anin naa fo lao risiꞌ Feniks. De rafadꞌe rae, “Ia, ani maloleꞌ. Ata lao leo!” Ara botiꞌ naka, ma lea laar, de hai laoꞌ tunggaꞌ a tasi suu na.
14 But, after no long time, there beat down from it a tempestuous wind, called Euraquilo, —
Hai lao nda dooꞌ sa ma, aibꞌoiꞌ ma sanggu anin losa. (Atahori oi, ‘ani timu-dis’). Anin naa fuu ofaꞌ a nendi nisiꞌ tasiꞌ a taladꞌa na. Atahori ofaꞌ ra nda rauli rala ofaꞌ sa, de tunggaꞌ a anin a.
15 and, the ship being caught and we not being able to bring her head to the wind, we let her go, and were borne along.
16 And, running under the lee, of some small island, called Cauda, we were able, with difficulty, to make ourselves masters of the boat, —
Hai laa-laa tungga ree ra, losa deka mo pulu anaꞌ esa, nara na Kauda. Leleꞌ naa, jukun na feꞌe nenepaꞌaꞌ sia ofa moko a deaꞌ. De hai lea jukun naa mitaꞌ mamate mara ofaꞌ ata neu.
17 which, hoisting up, they began to use, helps, under-girding the ship; and, fearing lest, on the sand-bank of Africa, they should run aground, lowering the gear, so, were they borne along.
Jukun a losa ofaꞌ ata ma, ara fefeoꞌ taliꞌ ndule ofaꞌ ao na, fo afiꞌ losa papa nara huꞌa, ma ofaꞌ a molo. Ara o ramatau, afiꞌ losa ree ra mbembesiꞌ ofaꞌ a fo ana hara sia saraꞌae Sirtis sia Afrika. De ara raꞌondaꞌ naka mana doko-doko tasiꞌ ralan, raꞌakukuraꞌ ofaꞌ a lalao na.
18 But, we being exceedingly tempest-tossed, on the next day, they began to throw [cargo] overboard;
Anin monaeꞌ naa, humbu hai ofa ma dii-ona neu. De mbilaꞌ neu ma, atahori ofaꞌ ra nggari sudꞌi a saa ruma tasiꞌ rala reu.
19 and, on the third day, with their own hands, the tackling of the ship, they cast away.
Fini esa na fai, ani monaeꞌ feꞌe seli. De ara boe ramatau. Naa de, ara nggari seluꞌ sudꞌi a saa ra tasiꞌ rala reu, fo ofaꞌ a namanggafa ofaꞌ a. Ofaꞌ saa-saa nara o, atahori ofaꞌ ra nggari se.
20 And, neither, sun nor stars, appearing for many days, and, no small tempest, lying upon us, in the end, all hope that we should be saved, began to be taken from us.
Hatuꞌ-rerelon ani monaeꞌ naa nda naloeꞌ mbei saꞌ boe losa fai hira. Lume-masu namafau, de hai nda mita relo no nduuꞌ sa. Basa hai masaloe, mae neꞌo nda misodꞌa sa ena.
21 But, when they had been, long without food, then, Paul, standing in the midst of them, said—Ye ought, indeed, Sir! yielding to me, not to have sailed away from Crete, to get this damage and loss. …
Fai hira ia ra, hai nda mia-minu saa saꞌ boe. De Paulus noꞌe nala basa hai, de ana olaꞌ oi, “Toronoo nggaree! Sobꞌa hei tungga oꞌola ngga fo afiꞌ lao hela Namo Maloleꞌ a, naa, hita nda hambu susa basa ia sa, ma nda runggi saa saꞌ boe.
22 And, now, I recommend you to be of good courage; for, loss of life, shall there be, none at all, from among you, —only the ship.
Te ia naa, au oꞌe basa hei fo miꞌimamateꞌ rala mara. Dei fo hita ofa na ia nambalutu. Te afiꞌ mimitau, huu atahori esa o, nda mate saꞌ boe.
23 For there stood by me this night, belonging unto the God whose I am, unto whom also I am doing divine service, a messenger,
Naa fo basa hei bubꞌuluꞌ au ia, Lamatualain atahori Na, ma au hambu ue-tataos mia E. Tembaꞌ a, Ana denu ate Na esa mia sorga, nambariiꞌ mia bobꞌoa ngga. Ana nafadꞌe au nae,
24 saying—Be not afraid, Paul! for, before Caesar, must thou needs stand. And lo! God hath granted to thee as a favour, all them who are sailing with thee.
‘Paulus! Afiꞌ mumutau saaꞌ boe. Dei fo musi muu mundaa mo mane monaeꞌ sia Roma fo ana nggero dedꞌea ma. Lamatualain rala malole Na neu nggo, naa de Ana tao nasodꞌa basa atahori mana sia ofaꞌ ata ia ra.’
25 Wherefore, be of good courage, Sirs; for I believe in God—that, so, it shall be, according as it hath been told me.
Dadꞌi toronoo nggare. Hei afiꞌ masaloe. Au umehere tebꞌe saa fo Lamatualain nafadꞌe au tembaꞌ a, dei fo dadꞌi taꞌo naa.
26 Upon a certain island, however, must we needs be wrecked.
Te dei fo ofaꞌ ia laa-laa nisiꞌ pulu esa.”
27 And, when, the fourteenth night, had come, and we were being driven to and fro in the Adriatic, about midnight, the sailors suspected that some country was, nearing, them;
Leleꞌ naa, ree-anin poꞌa naꞌamiminaꞌ ofaꞌ a, de hai laa-laa fai sanahulu haa ena mia tasi Adria. Te mbei ma fai banggi rua na ma, atahori ofaꞌ ra medꞌa na hai deka mo madꞌaꞌ ata ena.
28 and, sounding, they found twenty fathoms, —and, going a little further, and again sounding, they found fifteen fathoms.
Ara dou oeꞌ a rae rahine oeꞌ a roroma na. Ara uku ma, ree rua nulu. Ofaꞌ a mata neu mbei ma, ara dou seluꞌ oeꞌ a, de hambu oeꞌ a roroma na, ree sana hulu lima.
29 And, fearing lest haply, on rocky places, we should be wrecked, out of stern, cast they four anchors, —and began praying that day might dawn.
Basa se ramatau, afiꞌ losa ofaꞌ a hara neu fatu mbiaꞌ. Dadꞌi raꞌondaꞌ naka deaꞌ ra haaꞌ se. Ma basa hai hule-huleꞌ, fo manggarelo lai-lai.
30 But, when, the sailors, were seeking to flee out of the ship, and had lowered the boat into the sea, by pretext, as though out of the prow they had been about to reach anchors,
Te atahori ofaꞌ ra rala ralaꞌ sa, fo rae rela hela ofaꞌ a nenee. De raꞌondaꞌ jukun, tao onaꞌ rae raꞌondaꞌ naka mataꞌ ra.
31 Paul said unto the centurion, and unto the soldiers—Except, these, abide in the ship, ye yourselves, cannot be saved!
Te Paulus nafadꞌe dudꞌuꞌa deꞌulakaꞌ nara neu malangga soldꞌadꞌu no soldꞌadꞌu nara nae, “Mete ma atahori ofaꞌ ra nda rahani ofaꞌ ata sa, naa mate basa hei.”
32 Then, the soldiers cut away the ropes of the boat, and let her fall off.
Ara rena Paulus olaꞌ taꞌo naa ma, soldꞌadꞌu ra edi-etu jukun tali na, de hela e laa-laa. De atahori ofaꞌ ra nda rela rala sa.
33 And, until day was about to dawn, Paul continued to beseech one and all to take some food, saying—This day is, the fourteenth day, that, suspense, fasting, ye are completing, —having helped yourselves, to nothing.
Reorendu ma, Paulus kokoe basa atahori ra fo raa-rinu. Ana oi, “Nggarei rua ia, hita endoꞌ a, ma hule-huleꞌ a, no nda taa-tinu saa saꞌ boe.
34 Wherefore, I beseech you to take some food, —for, this, lays a foundation for your safety; for, of no one of you, shall a hair of the head perish.
Dadꞌi au oꞌe fo ata taa-tinu mbei dei, naa fo ata maꞌadere baliꞌ. Au umuhere ae, hita esa nda mate saꞌ boe. Basa hita tasodꞌaꞌ.”
35 And, having said these things, and taken a loaf, he gave thanks unto God before all, and, breaking it, began to eat.
Paulus olaꞌ basa ma, ana haꞌi roti, ma hule-oꞌe mbali Lamatualain sia basa se mata nara. Basa ma, ana haꞌi nala potoꞌ esa, de naa.
36 And, all becoming, of good cheer, they also, helped themselves to food.
Ara rita taꞌo naa ma, rala nara manggatee baliꞌ, ma ara tungga raa boe. Basa hai mana sia ofaꞌ ata, atahori natun rua hitu nulu nee. Basa hai mia.
37 Now we were, in the ship, in all, about seventy-six souls.
38 And, when they were satisfied with food, they began lightening the ship, casting out the wheat into the sea.
Hai mia miꞌibeta ma, ara nggari hendi karon are-gandum tasiꞌ rala neu, fo ramanggafa seluꞌ ofaꞌ fai.
39 And, when day came, they could not recognise, the land; but perceived, a certain bay, having a beach, —upon which they were minded, if they could, safely to bring the ship.
Manggarelo ma, atahori ofaꞌ ra rita madꞌa ata. Te ara nda ritaꞌ rae, naa, pulu bee saꞌ boe. Ara rita retaan esa, de ramahena rae, mete ma bisa, rendi ofaꞌ tungga fatu mbiaꞌ ra sia tasiꞌ naa, fo risiꞌ retaan naa.
40 And, casting off the anchors, they let them go into the sea, —at the same time, loosening the lashings of the rudders, and, hoisting up the foresail to the wind, they made for the beach.
De ara edi-etu tali naka ra sia tasi, ma raꞌondaꞌ uli a, fo neuli ofaꞌ a. Ara lea laa anaꞌ mana sia mataꞌ, fo anin nendi ofaꞌ a retaan neu.
41 But, falling into a place where two seas met, they ran the ship aground; and, the foreship sticking fast, remained immoveable, while, the stern, began to break up, from the violence [of the waves].
Te ofaꞌ a sara dai mbuku saraꞌaeꞌ sia tasiꞌ a rala, de hara sia naa, nda naꞌaundaꞌ saa. Boe ma, ree monaeꞌ a popoꞌa nambalutu ofaꞌ a deaꞌ.
42 Now, the soldiers counsel, turned out to be, that they should kill, the prisoners, lest any one should swim out and escape;
Soldꞌadꞌu ra rita taꞌo naa ma, ara rae tao risa atahori bui ra. Ara ramatau, afiꞌ losa atahori bui ra, nane madꞌaꞌ ata reu, fo rela.
43 but, the centurion, being minded to bring Paul safely through, hindered them of their purpose, and ordered such as were able to swim, to cast themselves overboard and, get first to the land, —
Te malangga soldꞌadꞌu Yulius ai soldꞌadꞌu nara, huu ana nae fee Paulus nasodꞌa. De ana parenda, basa atahori mana nane rahineꞌ ra, nane madꞌaꞌ ata reu.
44 and, the rest, some, on planks, and, some, on other things from the ship, …and, so, it came to pass, that, all, were brought safely through, on to the land.
Ma ana denu atahori nda mana nane ralaꞌ ra sa, toꞌu papaꞌ do sudꞌi a saa, fo tungga ree ra madꞌaꞌ ata reu. No taꞌo naa, basa hai losa madꞌaꞌ ata no masodꞌaꞌ.
