Acts 27
1 When [the Governor and those who advised him] decided that it was time for us [(exc)] to get on a ship and go to Italy, they put Paul and some other prisoners into the hands/care of an army captain whose name was Julius. [He was the one who would guard us on the journey]. Julius was [an officer] in charge of [a group of] 100 [soldiers that people called] ‘the Emperor Augustus Group’.
Sa ta hem tidi dusa u italiya, wa witi duru Bulus nan aye adesa a kurso we nan Bulus atari ti urunu udang nizame agi juliyas, unu ubataliya Agustas.
2 So we got on a ship that had come from Adramyttium [city in Asia province. The ship] was going to [return there, stopping at] cities along the coast of Asia [province]. Aristarchus, [a fellow believer who was] from Thessalonica [city] in Macedonia [province], went with us.
Ti ribe uzirigi ume, adramatiya, uge sa wazi uguna udi hiri uhana upuru uraba udang wa Asiya. Ti haa uraba udang. Aristakus unanu Tasalonika amakiduniya ma dusa nan haru.
3 The day after [the ship sailed], we arrived at Sidon [city]. Julius kindly told Paul that he could go and see his friends [who lived there], so that they could give him whatever he might need. [So Paul visited the believers there].
Sa ahira asana ti tu anipin nu sidom, ahira gebasa Juliyas ma bezi Bulus uhem ni ma kuri ma hem aroni ameme wa tasi me barki wa hiri me.
4 Then the ship left [Sidon], but the winds were blowing against us [(exc)], so [the ship] went along [the north] side of Cyprus [Island], the side that is sheltered [from the wind].
Ahira me, ta tarsi uraba udang ti dusa uhana u kuburus, barki upebu udandang sa wa raa aje aru.
5 After that, we crossed over the sea close to the coast of Cilicia and Pamphylia [provinces. The ship] arrived at Myra [city, which is] in Lycia [province]. [We got off the ship there].
Sata kafa amei uhana uwatu ukilikiya Bampaliya, ti ē umira anipin nu lisiya.
6 In Myra, [people told] Julius that a ship [was there that had come] from Alexandria [city] and would [soon] sail to Italy. So he arranged for us to get [on that ship], [and we left].
Abibi me, unu udang me ma kem uzirigi umei u Iskanriya ugesa uhaza italiya, ma wuna duru anyimo me.
7 We sailed slowly for several days and finally arrived close to the coast [of Asia province], near Cnidus [town. After that], the wind [was very strong and] did not allow the ship to move straight ahead [westward. So instead], we sailed [southward] along the side of Crete [Island that is] sheltered [from the wind], and we passed [near Cape] Salmone.
Niye nan tiye ti zi ni tanu seke u hana adumo tanu me ti cukuno duru dusi iwono ti ka tino upuru u sini dus upebu u karti duru tanu, ti wata u karita, upuru salmina.
8 [The wind was still strong, and it prevented the ship from moving ahead fast]. So we moved slowly along the coast [of Crete], and we arrived at a harbor that was called Fair Havens, near Lasea [town].
In nirere ta tarsi u makurda ini ijasi at ē are ahira sa agusan ani ahira ugua uhuma a rā mamu nan nipin nu lasiya.
9 Much time had passed, so it would have been dangerous if we [(exc)] had traveled [farther] by ship [because after that time of the year] [MTY] [the sea often became very stormy]. So Paul said to the men [on the ship],
A'ane me ta zika uganiya ujoko, uganya uzatu are imumare ima yahudawa wa aka, tanu tiru ta de anyimo ijasi. Bulus ma nyinzi we tize.
10 “Men, I perceive that [if we(inc) travel by ship] now, it will be disastrous for us. A storm may destroy the ship and the cargo, and possibly we will drown.”
Magu, anabu tanu tiru me tidi cukuno duru in ti cari nan udira abanga gbanrdang, da si ahira ucira uzirgi cas ba nan ace aru me.
11 But the officer [did not listen to] what Paul said. Instead, he decided to do what the pilot [of the ship] and the owner of the ship advised.
Unu udang mateki unu kunna unaje ameme nan unu zirgi umei me, pit nan imum me sa Bulus ma buki.
12 The harbor where the ship had stopped was not a good place to remain during the winter [when the weather frequently becomes stormy. So most of the people on the ship decided that we(exc) should leave there, because they hoped that we] could stay at Phoenix [port] during the winter, if we could possibly arrive there. That harbor was open to the sea in two directions, [but the strong winds did not blow there].
Barki ahira me ada runta ticukum ba. Maro gbardang wa gamirka agi aceki ahira me, ingi idi wu ti biki nipin ni Finikiya, barki ti venke abini me. Ufinikiya ahira uribize amazirigi ma mei ukarita, u hira u arewa uhana anaza nan ukudu uhana anaza.
13 Then a gentle wind began to blow [from the south], and the [crew members] thought that they could travel as they had decided [to do. So] they lifted [the anchor up out of the sea], and the ship sailed [westward] along the [southern] shore of Crete [Island].
Sa upebu wa hira usuro ukudu wa hure sekr, wa gusi agi imum me ya wuna. Ba wa hunugko nizin nu zirigi umei me wa tarsi ukarita upuru upingaru.
14 But after a while, a wind that was very strong blew across the island [from the north side and hit the ship. That wind was called] {[People] called that wind} “the Northeast Wind.”
Sa ku ganiya ka aka akem unani kara ni gino me sa agusan me kurokilidon, ma tuba utira uru u zalang.
15 It blew strongly against the [front of] the ship. The result was that we could not keep going in the direction [in which we had been going]. So the sailors let the wind move the ship in the direction [that the wind] was blowing.
Sa uzirigi umei da wa sisizikime uhira upebu me, ti tarsi uwatu me sa upebu me u hazani.
16 The ship then passed a small island named Cauda. We passed along the side [of the island that] sheltered [the ship from the wind]. Then [while the ship was moving along], the sailors lifted the lifeboat up [out of the water] and tied it [on the deck. But the strong wind made it] difficult even to do that.
Ba ti tarsi ahira me sa tidi kem ubenki ni upru ure uzalang sa agusan in uni ukauda; In nirere ta tiri uzirigi ku cin me anipu nudan me.
17 After the sailors [hoisted/lifted] the lifeboat onto the ship, they tied ropes around the ship’s hull to strengthen the ship. The sailors were afraid that, [because the wind was pushing the ship], it might run onto the sandbanks off the coast of Libya to the south [and get stuck there. So] they lowered the largest sail [so that the ship would move slower. Even so], the wind continued to move the ship along. [The wind and the waves] continued to toss the ship about roughly, so on the next day the sailors began to throw overboard the things that the ship was carrying.
Sa wa nyeze uni, wa wuzi katuma inti zin wa tiri uzirigi meni barki usum kati urizi aseseri ubikiki bu sirtis, wa ceki uziirigi me unu gido uwe.
Ta wuzi nirere inti wiri da cin ba, sa ahira asana runga ti uzirigi me.
19 On the third [day after the stormy wind had begun to blow], the sailors/we [MTY] threw overboard [most of] the sails, ropes, and poles, [in order to make the ship lighter].
Uwui utaru, ana katuma ku uzirigi wa vengizi ti runga sa ta rā uzirigi tari tuwe.
20 The wind continued to blow very strongly, [and the sky was full of dark clouds] day and night. We could not see the sun or the stars for many days, [so we could not determine where we were. And the wind] continued to blow violently. So we [(exc)] finally thought that we would drown in the sea.
Tiye gbardang da ta ira masaa mu uwui nan mi iwiran aseseri aru. ni wiri ni dandang mini cas na zinu nu tira uru, vat ta kari mu riba tidi kafa.
21 None of us on the ship had eaten for many days. [Then one day], Paul stood up in front of us and said, “[Friends], you should have listened to me [when I said] that we [(inc)] should not sail from Crete. Then we would have been safe, and the ship and its cargo would be in good condition [LIT].
Sa wa dondokino da wa rē imumare ba, ba Bulus ma hiri aje ana katuma ku zirigi magu, anabu, sa ikunani mi, data hiri ukarita ba, sa tidi iri ti cari ti geme nan udira.
22 But now, I urge you, do not be afraid, because none of us will die. [The storm] will destroy the ship but not us.
Aname in nasa shi mu riba wuzani iriba ihu, barki ba desa madi diri nice numeme anyimo ashi, uzirigi uni cas adi diri.
23 I [know this], because last night God, the one to whom I belong and whom I serve, [sent] an angel [who came and] stood by me.
Barki niye sa na aki bi be bi kadura ka Asere desa mi ume mani, desa in zin inirere barki me-bi be bikadura ma tunnu upuru um.
24 The angel said to me, ‘Paul, do not be afraid! You [(sg)] must [go to Rome] and stand before the Emperor there [so that he can judge you]. I want you to know that God has made it clear to me that all those who are traveling by ship with you [will also survive].’
Magu, ''kati u kunna biyau ba, ulus, udi udi tunno aje akaisara ahu anime, ukuri u iri, Asere anyimo ugogoni umeme ma nyawe vat imum sa i haka nan hu.
25 So cheer up, [my] friends, because I believe that God will make this happen, exactly as [the angel] told me.
Barki ani anadu, wuzani iriba ihu, barki ma hem in Asere, kasi sa abukum ane ani imumme idi cukuno.
26 However, [the ship] will crash on some island, [and] we [(inc)] will go ashore [there].”
Adi vingi duru a ure uzalang aharu anime.
27 On the fourteenth night [after the storm had begun, the ship] was still being blown {the wind was still blowing [the ship]} across the Adriatic sea. About midnight, the sailors sensed that the ship was getting close to land.
In niye nu kirau in ka nazi nza aye, azisi un tuburo uru aba nan abini anyimo uraba udang u Adriyat, ina ti aniye, ana katuma ku zirigi wa gusi agi wa aye mamu nan nire nipin.
28 So they lowered [a weight on a rope] to measure how deep [the water was]. When they pulled the rope up again, they measured it and saw that the water was (120 ft./37 meters) deep. They went a little farther and lowered the rope again. [That time], they saw that the water was [only] about (90 ft./28 meters) deep.
Sa wa batan duru wa kem ta biku anu akura are, sa kuganiya ka aka cin wa kuri wa batin duru wakem haru ukurau in nanu ucibi.
29 They were afraid that the [ship] might go onto some rocks, so they threw out four anchors from the [ship’s] stern/back and continued to wish/pray that it would soon be dawn [so that they could see where the ship was going].
Biyau bi meki we nan adi vengi duru aseseri apo, ba wa ningi nizin nu nazi adumo uzirigi me.
30 Some of the sailors were planning to escape from the ship, so they lowered the lifeboat into the sea. In order [that no one would know what they planned to do], they pretended [that] they wanted to lower some anchors from the [ship’s] front/bow.
Ana katuma ku zirigi une, umei me wa zin unu, nyara una wadi ceki uzirige me wa kuri wa vingi sa wadi me anyimo uraba udang. Wa ku gusi wadi reki tire tizin in na aje uzirigi me.
31 But Paul said to the army officer and soldiers, “If the sailors do not stay in the ship, you have no hope of being saved.”
Ba Bulus magu unani kara nini kono, ''ingi anu ageme wada tunno me anyimo uzirigi me ba ida kafa shi ba.''
32 So the soldiers cut the ropes and let the lifeboat fall into the water.
Anu udang ati kara wa tassi nizin nu zirigime umei me wa ceki uni urizi.
33 Just before dawn, Paul urged everyone [on the ship] to eat some food. He said, “For the past 14 days you have been waiting and watching and not eating anything.
Sa ahira atuba ussana, Bulus ma riki we vat wa donkino ke mumare, magu, ''kani tiye ukerau ni ti nazi da ta rē imumare ba.
34 So, [now] I urge you to eat some food. We [(inc)] need to do that in order to stay alive. I [tell you to do that because I know that] none of you will drown [IDM].”
Barkianime magu nan shi re ni imumare, wani me barki nihuma nishenini, nice ni inde nishi me ida niniba.
35 After Paul had said that, while everyone was watching, he took some bread and thanked God [for it. Then he broke the bread and began to eat some of it].
Sa ma buka anime maziki ugurasa me magu Asere jankai aje akonda vi, bama posi ugurasa me ma tuba arame.
36 The [rest of us] became encouraged, so we [(exc)] all ate some food.
Vat uwe wa kunna shew amuriba muweme wa tunguno are imumare.
37 Altogether there were 276 of us [SYN] on the ship.
Haru anu akuri are in nanu akuri usunare inutasi sa ta zi anyimo uzirigime.
38 When everyone had eaten as much as they wanted, they threw the grain [that the ship was carrying] into the sea, and this made the ship lighter.
Sa wa rē wa tiyu, wa kpunko i alkama me anyimo uraba udang barki wa kaska ugitak uzirigime.
39 At dawn, [we(exc) could see] land, [but the sailors] did not recognize [the place]. However, they could see that there was a bay and [a wide area of] sand at the water’s edge. They planned that, if it was possible, they would steer the ship onto [the beach].
Sa ahira asana, wa tinka nipin me ba, wa iri ure ugbikubigaru, wa gamirka tizze ace aweme nani wa tuburko uzirigime uhana upingaru ugbik me.
40 [So some of the sailors] cut the anchor [ropes and] let the anchors fall into the sea. At the same time, [other sailors] untied the [ropes that] fastened the rudders, [so that they could steer the ship again]. Then [the sailors] raised the sail at the front/bow of the ship so that the wind [would blow the ship forward], and the ship headed towards the shore.
Ba wa tazi tizin me wa ceki tini anyimo uraba udang me. Anyimo uganiya u inde wa sopisi tizin sa ti gamara uzirigime, ceki mabeze ma bi tini uzirigi me madusa uhana upingaro u raba udang.
41 But the ship hit a sandbank. The front of the ship stuck there and could not move, and big waves beat against the back of the ship and it began to break apart.
Sa wa biki ahira sa mei kare magurnani, ba u zirigi me u tunno adizi. Anaje uzirigime aribe abi jamarki abini me, usezirke uka zome ba, azumo umesi azumome atubi upusa barki iranza i'barka i mei.
42 The soldiers said [to one another, “Let’s] kill [all] the prisoners [on the ship], so that they will not [be able to] swim [away and] escape.” [They planned to do that because they were sure] that officials [would order them to be executed if they let the prisoners escape].
Ana nikara niti kara ti mayanga wanu barka agi wadi huzi adesa a impoo we barki kati wa kafa wa sumi.
43 But [Julius], the army captain, wanted to save Paul, so he stopped the soldiers from doing what they planned to do. Instead, he [commanded] first that everyone who could swim should jump into the water and swim to land.
Me unu udang me ma nyari ma buri Bulus, ba turi imum be sa wanu barka, ma nya tize magu, vat desa ma rusa mei ca ma hinna ma kafa uhana upingaru.
44 [Then he told] the others [to hold] onto planks or pieces from the ship [and go towards shore. We(exc) did what he said, and] in that way all of us arrived safely on land.
Ahana aruma wadi ku tarsi in nadumo, aye aseseri a makatako anyimo uzirigi me. Ane ani vat uru ta kafa anyimo upingaru.
