Acts 27
1 When it was decided that we would sail to Italy, they transferred Paul and some other prisoners to a centurion named Julius, of the Augustan Cohort.
Nai ilamuwe kina itakiwe kutunga muhinzo ku mazi kulongola ku Italia, ai aminkiiye uPaulo ni atungwa angiiza kung'wa afisa ung'wi nua idale nila Kiroma nai witangwaa Julio, nua idale lang'wa Agustani.
2 We got on board a ship of Adramyttium and put out to sea, intending to sail by the ports along the coast of Asia. With us was Aristarchus, a Macedonian of Thessalonica.
Kikanankila i meli kupuma ku Adramitamu, naiza ituile itunge muhinzo mu mpelo mpelo a nshemba a Asia. Iti gwa ki kingila mu luzi. uAristaka kupuma ku Thesalonike a ku Makedonia akalongola palung'wi nu sese.
3 The next day we put in at Sidon, and Julius treated Paul kindly, allowing him to go to his friends and receive care.
Luhiku nai lutyatile kikasimya u ludigi mu kisali nika ku Sidoni, naiza uJulio ai umutendee uPaulo ku ukende nu kumulekela kulongola ku ahumbauya akwe kusingiilya u ukende nuao.
4 From there we put out to sea and sailed under the lee of Cyprus, because the winds were against us.
Kupuma papo kikalongola mu luzi kikatunga u muhinzo kupilimikiilya i kisiwa nika Kipro naiza katuile kiku kingama u ng'wega, ku nsoko u ng'wega ai watulaa ukugilinkiiye.
5 After sailing across the open sea off Cilicia and Pamphylia, we arrived at Myra of Lycia.
Ze yakilaa kutula katunga u muhinzo mu mazi nakoli pakupi ni Kilikia ni Pamfilia, kikapembya ku Mira, kisali nika Lisia.
6 There the centurion found an Alexandrian ship that was sailing to Italy and put us on board.
Pang'wanso u afisa uyo nu idale nila Kiroma, akamihanga i meli kupuma ku Alexandria naiza ituile ikatunga muhinzo kutunga ku Italia. Akakunankilya mukati akwe.
7 We sailed along slowly for many days and arrived with difficulty off Cnidus. When the wind did not allow us to hold our course, we sailed under the lee of Crete off Salmone.
Ze yakilaa kutula katunga u muhinzo ku uembeelu ku mahiku idu ni panyambele kikatula kapika ku lwago pakupi ni Kinidas, u ng'wega shanga wikakulekela hangi kutunga i nzila nanso, itigwa kikatunga u muhinzo mu mpelo mpelo a mululi nua ku Krete kize ku ukigamile u ng'wega, kuhumbeela ni Salmone.
8 Sailing along the coast with difficulty, we came to a place called Fair Havens, which was near the city of Lasea.
Kikatunga u muhinzo mu nshemba ku ukaku, kupikiila kianza nai kitangilwe Fari Haveni naiza kikoli pakupi ni kisali nika Lasi.
9 Since much time had been lost and the voyage had now become dangerous because the Fast was already over, Paul advised the ship's officers,
Ai katulaa kaholaa matungo idu nangaluu, ga ni itungo nila kuhita kulya nila Kiyahudi ai latulaa lakila, ni itungili ai yatulaa ulugu kulongoleka nu muhinzo. Iti gwa uPaulo aka kuhugula,
10 “Men, I perceive that this voyage is going to result in damage and great loss, not only of the cargo and of the ship, but also of our lives.”
nu kuligitya, “Agoha, kihenga u muhinzo naiza kuloilwe ku uhole ukutula nu ubii nu u ulya widu, shanga udu ku miligo ni meli, kuiti ga nu ku likalo litu.”
11 But the centurion was persuaded by the ship's captain and the shipowner rather than by what Paul said.
Kuiti u afisa nu idale nila Kiroma akamutegeelya ikilo u mukulu nuakwe nu mukola hiu nua meli, kukila i makani ayo naiza akutambulwa nu Paulo.
12 Because the harbor was not a suitable place for spending the winter, the majority made a decision to set sail from there also, hoping to somehow reach Phoenix, a harbor of Crete facing southwest and northwest, so that we could spend the winter there.
Ku nsoko i bandari shanga ai atulaa kipango kitontu kikie itungo nila ulyuuku, ia baharia idu akasija kutunge u muhinzo kupuma pang'wanso, iti ku mpyani ihi anga kuhume ku kipikiila i kisali nika Foenike, kikie pang'wanso itungo nila u ulyuuku. Foenike ingi bandari uko ku Krete, hangi igozee hukuma kilya ni takama kilya.
13 When a south wind started blowing gently, they thought that the opportunity had come for them to carry out their plan. So they weighed anchor and sailed closely along the shore of Crete.
U ng'wega nua takama nai wandilye ku kunka ku uembeelu, ia baharia akasigiila alija iko naiza atulaa akiloilwe. Akipa u ludigi nu kutunga u muhinzo mpelompelo a Krete pakupi ni nshemba.
14 But before long, a hurricane-force wind called Euroclydon swept down from the island.
Kuiti ze yakilaa itungo ikupi ng'wega utaki, nuitangwaa nua hukuma kilya, ukandya ku ukua kupuma itumbi nila kisiwa.
15 When the ship was caught by the storm and could not head into the wind, we gave way to it and were driven along.
Matungo i meli nai ihumeeigwe nu kuleng'wa ku ugilinkiilya u ng'wega, ki kigombya ni hali yiyo kikatwalwa muhinzo nu wenso.
16 Running under the lee of a small island called Clauda, we were able with difficulty to secure the skiff.
Kikamanka kukiila u ng'wega nuanso nkika nai atulaa ikuukingila ung'wega nua kisiwa nikitangwaa Kauda; ni ku lwago nangaluu ai kuligilye ku uguniilya u mutumbwi.
17 After hoisting it up, the sailors used supports to undergird the ship. Then, fearing they might run aground on the Syrtis, they lowered the gear, and in this manner the ship was driven along.
Ze yakilaa kutula kamilutaa, ai atumie ludigi kumitunga i meli. Akitumba kina kuzeehuma kulongola mu kipango nika mahalu idu nika Syiti, iti gwa akasimya u ludigi hangi ai alongoigwe mu mpelo mpelo.
18 The next day, because we were being severely battered by the storm, the sailors began throwing the cargo overboard.
Kika kuwa ku ngulu nangaluu nu kimpupu, itigwa luhiku nai lutyatile ia baharia akandya kuguma i miligo kupuma mu meli.
19 On the third day we threw the ship's tackle overboard with our own hands.
Mahiku a taatu, ia baharia akandya kumapumya i mazi ku mikono ao akola.
20 When neither sun nor stars appeared for many days, and the violent storm continued to rage, all hope that we might be saved was lost.
Matungo naiza ilyoa ni nzota shanga ai yukalikie ku mahiku idu, ikili u kimpupu mukulu ai ukukuile, ni isumbiilyo kina kikagunwa ai li limie.
21 Since there had been little desire to eat, Paul stood up among them and said, “Men, you should have listened to my advice not to set sail from Crete; then you would have spared yourselves this damage and loss.
Ze yakilaa kutula alongolaa matungo malipu bila ndya, pang'wanso uPaulo akimika pakati a abaharia akalingitya, “Agoha, mutakiwe muntegeelye, hangi shanga aza kuziipa u ludigi kupuma ku Krete, iti kulija aya u ulugu nu ulimili.
22 But now I advise you to be of good cheer, for there will be no loss of life among you, but only of the ship.
Ni itungili kumupoeelya mipe inkolo, ku nsoko shanga ikutula nu ulimili nua likalo kati anyu, kwaala ulimili nua meli du.
23 For this very night an angel of the God to whom I belong and whom I serve stood beside me
Ku nsoko utiku nuakilaa malaika wang'wa Itunda, naiza Itunda uyo unene niakwe, ga ni hangi naiza nimipoelya - malaika nuakwe ai wimikile pa mpelo ane
24 and said, ‘Do not be afraid, Paul; yoʋ must stand before Caesar. And behold, God has granted yoʋ the safety of all who are sailing with yoʋ.’
nu kuligitya, “Leka kitumba Paulo. Kusinja wimike ntongeela ang'wa Kaisari, hangi goza, Itunda mu ukende nuakwe ukinkiiye awa ihi naza atungile u muhinzo palung'wi nu ewe.
25 Therefore be of good cheer, men, for I have faith in God that it will happen just as I have been told.
Iti gwa, agoha, ipi i nkolo, ku nsoko nu muhuiie Itunda, kina ikutula anga nintambuiwe.
26 But we must run aground on some island.”
Kuiti kusinja kuaalike ku kukuwa mu ing'wi nia isiwa.”
27 When the fourteenth night had come, as we were being driven across the Adriatic Sea, about midnight the sailors suspected that they were approaching some land.
Nai ipikile u utiku wigengu, nai ikatula kulongoigwe kunu nu kunu mu luzi nula Adratik, anga u utiku nu igengu iti, abaharia ai asigile kina ahumbeela kihi ni nyumu.
28 So they took a sounding and found it to be twenty fathoms. After going a little farther, they took another sounding and found it to be fifteen fathoms.
Ai atumie mililo kugemela kina ulundu nua imazi nu kulija mita makumi a taatu ni mutandatu, ze yakilaa itungo ikupi akagemela hangi akalija mita makumi abiili ni mupungati.
29 Fearing that we might run aground on the rocks, they let down four anchors from the stern and prayed for daybreak to come.
Ai itumbile hanza kuhumile kukumpa matalagwe, iti gwa akasimya i nanga inne kupuma mu nkika a kuikila i nanga hangi akalompa kina idau aza izee kaya kuza.
30 Then the sailors tried to escape from the ship by lowering the skiff into the sea under the pretense that they were going to lay out anchors from the bow.
Awo i abaharia ai atulaa akuduma mpyani a kumigumaniilya i meli nanso hangi akasimya mu mazi i boti ni niino niino nia kugunila u likalo, hangi akitendisa kina akuguma nanga kupuma mu nkika a kuntongeela a boti.
31 So Paul said to the centurion and the soldiers, “If these men do not remain in the ship you cannot be saved.”
Kuiti uPaulo akamuila u asikali uyo nuidale nila Kiroma ni asikali awo, “Shanga mukuhuma kugunika kwaala antu awa niakusiga mu meli,”
32 Then the soldiers cut away the ropes of the skiff and let it drift away.
Uugwa i asikali awo akatinanga i ndigi nia boti izo nu kulekwa iholwe ni mazi.
33 When daybreak was about to come, Paul encouraged them all to take some food, saying, “Today is the fourteenth day that you have continued in suspense without eating, having taken nothing.
Matungo u welu nua kidau dau nai watula ukupumila, uPaulo aka asinja ihi ageme kulya iniino. Akaligitya, “Ulu luhiku nula ikumi na inne mulindiie shanga mukulya, mukili kulya i kintu.
34 Therefore I urge you to take some food, for this is important for your survival, since not a hair will fall from the head of any one of you.”
Iti gwa kuminena muhole indya iniino, ku nsoko iyi ingi kunsoko a kikie kitalanyu; hangi kutili ga nu lusingi lung'wi mu matwe anyu nulukulimila.
35 After saying this, Paul took some bread and gave thanks to God in the presence of them all. Then he broke it and began to eat.
Nai wakondya kuligitya nanso, akahola u mukate akamulumba Itunda ntongeela a miho a kila muntu. Uugwa akau ega u mukate akandya kulya.
36 They were all encouraged and took food themselves.
Uu gwa ihi akakuiligwa inkolo ni enso akahola indya.
37 (Altogether there were two hundred seventy-six of us on the ship.)
Ai katulaa antu 276 mukati a meli.
38 When they had eaten their fill of food, they began to lighten the ship by throwing the wheat out into the sea.
Nai akondya kulya nu kikuta, ai amizipilye i meli kutula mpepeele ku kuguma i ngano mukati a luzi.
39 When daybreak came, the sailors did not recognize the land. But they noticed a bay with a beach and decided that, if possible, they would run the ship ashore there.
Nai ikatula mung'wi, shanga ai amilingile ihi ni nyumu, kuiti akihenga kipango kihi ni nyumu nai kingie mukati a mazi nai katula ni mahalu idu. Akitambulya anga ize ahumile kumilongolya i meli kutunga pang'wanso.
40 So they cut away the anchors and left them in the sea, at the same time loosening the bands of the rudders. Then they hoisted the foresail up into the blowing wind and made for the beach.
Iti gwa akaitolya i nanga akailekela mu luzi Mu itungo lilo liilo akaitolya i nanga nia itanga nu kumihumbula i nkika a kuntongeela kutunga mu ng'wega, iti gwa akatunga mu nkika a mahalu idu.
41 But they struck a sandbar and ran the ship aground. The bow stuck fast and remained immovable, and the stern was being broken apart by the force of the waves.
Kuiti akapembya kianza naiza ukiilo ubiili nua mazi utankanie, ni meli ikatunga mu mahalu. Ni nkika iyo na ntongeela a meli ikakigama pang'wanso shanga ai ihumile kupuma, Kuiti i kipango nika ntongeela a meli kikandya kubunika ku nsoko a utaki nua maingu.
42 The soldiers' plan was to kill the prisoners, so that none of them would swim away and escape.
Isigo nila asikali awo ai latulaa la kuabulaga i atungwa, iti kina kutili nai uziipumpa nu kutigana.
43 But the centurion, wishing to save Paul's life, kept them from carrying out their plan. So he ordered those who could swim to jump overboard first and get to land,
Kuiti u asikali uyo nu idale nila Kiroma ai uloilwe kumuguna uPaulo, iti gwa akimisha i masigo ao; nu kulagiilya awo nia humile kipumpa, apute kupuma mu meli hanza nu kulongola kihi ni nyumu.
44 and the rest were to follow, some on planks and some on pieces of the ship. And so it was that they were all brought safely to land.
Uugwa i agoha ni angiiza akutyata, i auya migulya a ipande nia mabada ni auya migulya a intu ingiiza kupuma mu meli. Ku nzila iyi ikapumila kina ihi kuupika iziza kihi ni nyumu.
