Now when it was decided that we should sail for Italy, they handed over Paul and a few other prisoners into the custody of Julius, a Captain of the Augustan battalion;

and going on board a ship of Adramyttium which was about to sail to the ports of the province of Asia, we put to sea; Aristarchus, the Macedonian, from Thessalonica, forming one of our party.
3 the/this/who and/both other to bring down toward Sidon benevolently and/both the/this/who Julius the/this/who Paul to use to permit to/with the/this/who friendly/friend (to travel *N(k)O*) care to obtain/happen
The next day we put in at Sidon. There Julius treated Paul with thoughtful kindness and allowed him to visit his friends and profit by their generous care.
4 and from there to lead to sail the lee the/this/who Cyprus through/because of the/this/who the/this/who wind to exist hostile
Putting to sea again, we sailed under the lee of Cyprus, because the winds were against us;
5 the/this/who and/both sea the/this/who according to the/this/who Cilicia and Pamphylia to sail across to descend toward Myra the/this/who Lycia
and, sailing the whole length of the sea that lies off Cilicia and Pamphylia, we reached Myra in Lycia.
6 and there to find/meet the/this/who centurion boat Alexandria to sail toward the/this/who Italy to put on board me toward it/s/he
There Julius found an Alexandrian ship bound for Italy, and put us on board of her.
7 in/on/among sufficient then day to sail slowly and hardly to be according to the/this/who Cnidus not to permit me the/this/who wind to sail the lee the/this/who Crete according to Salmone
It took several days of slow sailing for us to come with difficulty off Cnidus; from which point, as the wind did not allow us to get on in the direct course, we ran under the lee of Crete by Salmone.
8 hardly and/both to sail past it/s/he to come/go toward place one to call: call Fair (Havens) Havens which near city to be Lasea
Then, coasting along with difficulty, we reached a place called 'Fair Havens,' near the town of Lasea.
9 sufficient then time to pass and to be already dangerous/unsteady the/this/who voyage through/because of the/this/who and the/this/who fasting already to pass by to urge the/this/who Paul
Our voyage thus far had occupied a considerable time, and the navigation being now unsafe and the Fast also already over, Paul warned them.
10 to say it/s/he man to see/experience that/since: that with/after mistreatment and much damage/loss no alone the/this/who (burden *N(k)O*) and the/this/who boat but and the/this/who soul: life me to ensue to be the/this/who voyage
"Sirs," he said, "I perceive that before long the voyage will be attended with danger and heavy loss, not only to the cargo and the ship but to our own lives also."
11 the/this/who then centurion the/this/who captain and the/this/who captain more to persuade or the/this/who by/under: by (the/this/who *k*) Paul to say
But Julius let himself be persuaded by the pilot and by the owner rather than by Paul's arguments;
12 unsuitable then the/this/who Havens be already to/with wintering the/this/who greater to place plan to lead (from there *N(k)O*) if how be able to come to toward Phoenix to winter Havens the/this/who Crete to see according to southwest and according to northwest
and as the harbour was inconvenient for wintering in, the majority were in favour of putting out to sea, to try whether they could get to Phoenix--a harbour on the coast of Crete facing north-east and south-east--to winter there.
13 to blow gently then south to think the/this/who purpose to grasp/seize to take up nearer to sail past the/this/who Crete
And a light breeze from the south sprang up, so that they supposed they were now sure of their purpose. So weighing anchor they ran along the coast of Crete, hugging the shore.
14 with/after no much then to throw: throw according to it/s/he wind tempestuous the/this/who to call: call a north wind
But it was not long before a furious north-east wind, coming down from the mountains, burst upon us and carried the ship out of her course.
15 to seize then the/this/who boat and not be able to face the/this/who wind to give/deliver to bear/lead
She was unable to make headway against the gale; so we gave up and let her drive.
16 small island then one to sail under to call: call (Cauda *N(K)O*) be strong hardly in control of to be the/this/who lifeboat
Then we ran under the lee of a little island called Cauda, where we managed with great difficulty to secure the boat;
17 which to take up help to use to undergird the/this/who boat to fear and/both not toward the/this/who Syrtis to fall out to lower the/this/who vessel thus(-ly) to bear/lead
and, after hoisting it on board, they used frapping-cables to undergird the ship, and, as they were afraid of being driven on the Syrtis quicksands, they lowered the gear and lay to.
18 violently then be storm-tossed me the/this/who next/afterward jettisoning to do/make: do
But, as the storm was still violent, the next day they began to lighten the ship;
19 and the/this/who third with one’s own hand the/this/who gear the/this/who boat (to throw/lay down *N(K)O*)
and, on the third day, with their own hands they threw the ship's spare gear overboard.
20 neither then sun neither star to appear upon/to/against greater day winter and/both no little/few to lay on henceforth to take away hope all the/this/who to save me
Then, when for several days neither sun nor stars were seen and the terrific gale still harassed us, the last ray of hope was now vanishing.
21 much (and/both *N(k)O*) fasting be already then to stand the/this/who Paul in/on/among midst it/s/he to say be necessary on the other hand oh! man to obey me not to lead away from the/this/who Crete to gain and/both the/this/who mistreatment this/he/she/it and the/this/who damage/loss
When for a long time they had taken but little food, Paul, standing up among them, said, "Sirs, you ought to have listened to me and not have sailed from Crete. You would then have escaped this suffering and loss.
22 and the/this/who now to urge you be cheerful deprivation for soul: life none to be out from you but/however the/this/who boat
But now take courage, for there will be no destruction of life among you, but of the ship only.
23 to stand by for me this/he/she/it the/this/who night the/this/who God which to be (I/we *n*) which and to minister angel
For there stood by my side, last night, an angel of the God to whom I belong, and whom also I worship,
24 to say not to fear Paul Caesar you be necessary to stand by and look! to give grace you the/this/who God all the/this/who to sail with/after you
and he said, "'Dismiss all fear, Paul, for you must stand before Caesar; and God has granted you the lives of all who are sailing with you.'
25 therefore be cheerful man to trust (in) for the/this/who God that/since: that thus(-ly) to be according to which way to speak me
"Therefore, Sirs, take courage; for I believe God, and am convinced that things will happen exactly as I have been told.
26 toward island then one be necessary me to fall out
But we are to be stranded on a certain island."
27 as/when then fourteenth night to be to spread/surpass me in/on/among the/this/who Adriatic Sea according to midst the/this/who night to suppose the/this/who sailor to bring near one it/s/he country
It was now the fourteenth night, and we were drifting through the Sea of Adria, when, about midnight, the sailors suspected that land was close at hand.
28 and to sound to find/meet a fathom twenty little then to pass and again to sound to find/meet a fathom fifteen
So they hove the lead and found twenty fathoms of water; and after a short time they hove again and found fifteen fathoms.
29 to fear and/both not how (according to *N(k)O*) rough place (to fall out *NK(O)*) out from stern to throw/lay down anchor four to pray/wish for day to be
Then for fear of possibly running on rocks, they threw out four anchors from the stern and waited impatiently for daylight.
30 the/this/who then sailor to seek to flee out from the/this/who boat and to lower the/this/who lifeboat toward the/this/who sea pretense as/when out from bow anchor to ensue to stretch out
The sailors, however, wanted to make their escape from the ship, and had lowered the boat into the sea, pretending that they were going to lay out anchors from the bow.
31 to say the/this/who Paul the/this/who centurion and the/this/who soldier if not this/he/she/it to stay in/on/among the/this/who boat you to save no be able
But Paul, addressing Julius and the soldiers, said, "Your lives will be sacrificed, unless these men remain on board."
32 then to cut off the/this/who soldier the/this/who rope the/this/who lifeboat and to allow it/s/he to fall out
Then the soldiers cut the ropes of the ship's boat and let her fall off.
33 until then which day to ensue to be to plead/comfort the/this/who Paul all to partake food to say fourteenth today day to look for fasting to continue nothing to take
And continually, up till daybreak, Paul kept urging all on board to take some food. "This is the fourteenth day," he said, "that you have been anxiously waiting for the storm to cease, and have fasted, eating little or nothing.
34 therefore to plead/comfort you (to partake *N(k)O*) food this/he/she/it for to/with the/this/who you salvation be already none for you hair (away from *N(k)O*) the/this/who head (to destroy *N(K)O*)
I therefore strongly advise you to take some food. This is essential for your safety. For not a hair will perish from the head of any one of you."
35 to say then this/he/she/it and to take bread to thank the/this/who God before all and to break be first to eat
Having said this he took some bread, and, after giving thanks to God for it before them all, he broke it in pieces and began to eat it.
36 encouraging then to be all and it/s/he to take food
This raised the spirits of all, and they too took food.
37 (to be *N(k)O*) then the/this/who all soul: person in/on/among the/this/who boat (two hundred *NK(O)*) seventy six
There were 276 of us, crew and passengers, all told.
38 to satisfy then (the/this/who *o*) food to lighten the/this/who boat to expel the/this/who grain toward the/this/who sea
After eating a hearty meal they lightened the ship by throwing the wheat overboard.
39 when then day to be the/this/who earth: country no to come to know bosom then one to observe to have/be shore toward which (to plan *N(k)O*) if (be able *NK(o)*) (to expel *NK(O)*) the/this/who boat
When daylight came, they tried in vain to recognise the coast. But an inlet with a sandy beach attracted their attention, and now their object was, if possible, to run the ship aground in this inlet.
40 and the/this/who anchor to take away to allow toward the/this/who sea together to loosen/leave the/this/who rope the/this/who rudder and to lift up the/this/who foresail the/this/who to blow to hold back/fast toward the/this/who shore
So they cut away the anchors and left them in the sea, unloosing at the same time the bands which secured the paddle-rudders. Then, hoisting the foresail to the wind, they made for the beach.
41 to fall upon then toward place sandbar to run aground the/this/who ship and the/this/who on the other hand bow to immobilise to stay unshakable the/this/who then stern to loose by/under: by the/this/who force the/this/who a wave
But coming to a place where two seas met, they stranded the ship, and her bow sticking fast remained immovable, while the stern began to go to pieces under the heavy hammering of the sea.
42 the/this/who then soldier plan to be in order that/to the/this/who prisoner to kill not one to swim out (to escape *N(k)O*)
Now the soldiers recommended that the prisoners should be killed, for fear some one of them might swim ashore and effect his escape.
43 the/this/who then centurion to plan to save the/this/who Paul to prevent it/s/he the/this/who plan to order and/both the/this/who be able to swim to throw off first upon/to/against the/this/who earth: country to go out/away
But their Captain, bent on securing Paul's safety, kept them from their purpose and gave orders that those who could swim should first jump overboard and get to land;
44 and the/this/who remaining which on the other hand upon/to/against plank which then upon/to/against one the/this/who away from the/this/who boat and thus(-ly) to be all to save upon/to/against the/this/who earth: country
and that the rest should follow, some on planks, and others on various things from the ship. In this way they all got safely to land.
