< 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’.
Hagi Itali kumate tina takaheta vugahaze hutageta, mago ruotage hu'za empra 100'a sondia vahete kva nehia ne' (sensulien) Juliusi kegava hinogu, Poline, ruga'a kina vahera, avaremi'naze.
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.
Atramitiumiti Esia kaziga rama'a vente manitere nehia kumate manitere huno, vunaku nehia ventefi marerita hagerimpi vu'none. Aristakusi'a Tesalonaika rankumapinti nera, Masedoniatikino tagrane vu'ne.
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].
Maseno ko'atia zupa Saidoni uhanati'none. Hagi Juliusi'a knare avu'ava Polina hunteno, amane vunka knampa ka'a ome nezmagenka, kazama hu'zana zamagripinti erigahane huno huntegeno vu'ne.
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].
Hagi Saidonia atreta Saiprusi ti amu'nompi me'nea kuma asogita vu'none. Na'ankure zaho'mo'a tusiza huno himamutino hagerina erivnape'ne.
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].
Hagi Silisiane Pamfilia hagerina arugitagita vunazamota, Maira rankumate Lisia provinsifi umani'none.
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].
Anante sondia kva ne'mo'a Aleksandriati ventemo, Itali vunaku nehia vente keteno, anampi tavare antegeta vu'none.
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.
Akoheta rama'a kna ana'ana huta vu'none. Tusi knazampi Sindasia ehanati'none, na'ankure zaho'mo'a tusi himamu reno kana renkaniregeta mago'anena ovuta, Kriti ti amunompi me'nea mopa asogita Salmoni vu'none.
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].
Agatereta tusi amuho huta Lasia kuma tava'onte, Fea Haveni e'none.
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],
Rama'a knamo'a tagateretegeno, hagerimpi vuna kamo'a menina hazenke atie, na'ankure Jiu vahe'mo'za kave'ma a'o hukna agateregeno, hampo'na zaho ko atu knafi efrone, Poli'a antahintahi zamino,
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.”
anage hu'ne, Ama vene'ne zage, nagrama nentahuana, amama vuku'ma nehuna kamofona rama'a hazenkefi ufreta rama'a zanti atregahune, feno'zane ventegerompage, tagranena tasimura atregahune huno zamasmi'ne.
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.
Hianagi sondia vahete kva ne'mo'a, ventere'ma aze'neria ne' ene, ventemofo nefake ha'a nanekea nentahino, hagi Poli'ma hiankea ontahi'ne.
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].
Na'ankure zahoko'atu knafima ventemo'ma umani kumamo'a knarera osu'ne. Rama'amo'za mago'zamarimpa hu'za, knarekita vugahune hu'naze. Zamagesama antahi'zana Foniksi uhanatigahune hu'za antahi'naze. Kritima ventemo'ma unemania kumamo'a rugaruga asoparega zage ufre kaziga (notwest sautwest) avugosa hunte'negeno zaho ko atu knafina anante umanigahune hu'naze.
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].
Kanti sauti kazigati agazone zaho emarerige'za, hago knare hiankita amane vugahu'ne nehu'za, timpi umaniku erinetraza zana anka avazuhu ventefi nente'za, Kriti kaziga vu'za mopa tva'onte vu'naze.
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.”
Hianagi tusi'a not isti'e hu'za nehaza zahokomo avunenenteno Kriti kazigati tusi himamutino e'ne.
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.
Zaho komo'a vente'a eme amasagino azeri rava higeno, ventemo'a azeri agatere'zana osigeta tagrati atronkeno zaho komo taretufeno vu'ne.
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.
Kautae nehaza ti amu'nompi mopa asogita tagareta nevuta, tusi amuho hunerantegeta tazama husia votia avazu huno ne-ea votia erinte anaga atre'none.
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.
Hagi votia erianaga atrete'za, nofi eri'za ra ventere azerisigu kitragote'naze. Vene'ne zagamo'za ventemo Sitisi tinkenare ome ahe'zankura tusi kore nehu'za zamazeri knama hanige'za ti avozare'ma akohe'za vanagu, kna'age'zama rente'naza nofira eritrete'za atrageno zaho'mo zamatufeno vu'ne.
Maseno ko'atige'za mago'a fenona ventefintira eri atre'naze, na'ankure zaho komo'a tusi hampo'natino ahegantugama huno azeri nakari'za hige'za ana hu'naze.
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].
Hagi nampa 3gnazupa ventemofo eri'za zantamina mago'a asga hu'za mate'vu atre'naze.
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.
Tagra zagene hanafi'enema mika knafina hanatigeta onkonkeno zahoko'mo'ma knare osigeno'a, knare hugahune huta tagesama antahi'nona zamo'a amane zankna hu'ne.
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].
Za'za kna ne'zana one'za manizageno, Poli'a amu'nozamifi otino anage hu'ne, Ama vene'nemotma nagrama huanke, Amage antetma Krititima atretma omazasina amanahu hazenkene tuzampaza zantamima atraza zana otrasine.
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.
Hanki menima tamasmisuana korera osiho, na'ankure amama mani'naza amu'nompintira mago'moka fanane osugahananki, ventemoke fanane hugahie.
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.
Na'ankure meni keragera nagrama Agri vahe mani'nena eri'zama'a erinentoa Anumzamofo ankeromo'a navuga eme otino,
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].’
anage hu'ne, Poliga antahio korera osunka amane Sisa avurera ome otio, kagranema ana mika ventefima neaza nagara Anumzamo'a asunku huramanteno tamaza hugahie hu'ne.
25 So cheer up, [my] friends, because I believe that God will make this happen, exactly as [the angel] told me.
E'inage hu'negu ama vene'nezaga korera osiho. Na'ankure nagra Anumzamofonku namentinti nehuankino nasami'nea kante anteno fatgo huno taza hugahie.
26 However, [the ship] will crash on some island, [and] we [(inc)] will go ashore [there].”
Hu'neanagi mago ti amu'nompi mopare atresunkeno zaho'mo ventea atufeno have ome amiteno rukaha hanie.
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.
Hagi 14ni'a kenage'mofo agu'afima zaho'mo'ma tatufeno Adriatiki hageri amu'nompima nevigeno'a, kerage amu'nompina ventefi eri'za vahe'mo'za hago mopare neone hu'za zamagesa antahi'naze.
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.
Nehu'za nofi atumpare knaza eri renente'za, eri hagerimpi re'za kazana, 40'a mita fenkagame urami'ne. Osi'a ogantu'a vuza mago'ane ana nofira erire'za kazana, 30'a mita timofo za'za a'mo'a urami'nege'za ke'naze.
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].
Have ahegahune hu'za tusi zamagogogu nehu'za, ventema umaniku'ma nehige'za erinetrazaza anka 4'a asgahu netre'za, ko'ma atisigu nunamu hu'naze.
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.
Anante ventefi eri'za vahe'mo'za ventefinti atre'za fre'naku nehu'za, havige hu'za nofite knanentake'za eri netraze nehazage'za osi votia hagerimpi eri atre'naze.
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.”
Poli'a sondia vahete kva ne'ene ruga'a sondia vahera zamasamino, Ama'na vene'ne zagama ventefima omani'snazana tamagra frigahaze hu'ne.
32 So the soldiers cut the ropes and let the lifeboat fall into the water.
Hige'za sondia vahe'mo'za ana osi votire'ma kinte'naza nofira traga hutrageno hagerimpi mareno vu'ne.
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.
Ko'atumasa huku higeno, Poli'a mika vaheku ne'za neho huno nezmasmino anage hu'ne, 14ni'a kna'mofo agu'afina naza fore hugahieha hutma ne'zama onetma mago'zama osutma e'naze.
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].”
E'inama hu'nagu mago'a ne'zana neho hu'na neramasmue, na'ankure tamagri'ma tamazeri hampo'na hanigetma manisnagu nehue. Na'ankure magore hunka osi hazenkea mago'moka e'oritfa hugahane.
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].
Anagema huteno'a, ana mika vahe'zamufi breti erino Anumzantega nunamu hunteno, korino agafa huno ne'ne.
36 The [rest of us] became encouraged, so we [(exc)] all ate some food.
Ana huno hakare vahera zamazeri hampo'na huke hige'za zamesite ne'zana eri'naze.
37 Altogether there were 276 of us [SYN] on the ship.
Ana miko vahe'ma vente agu'afima mani'nonana, 276'a vahe mani'none.
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.
Anahu'za zamesiama'a nezamu nehu'za, ventemo'ma oza hanigu witia eri'za hagerimpi matevu atre'naze.
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].
Ko'ma atige'za, mago mopa ke'nazanagi ana mopa antahi'za ke'za osu'naze, hianagi timo eri mago huno ufreno knare kahepa ruherafi'nege'za kete'za, knare hanuno'a zahomo vente'a atufeno anante vugahie hu'za antahi'naze.
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.
Hige'za vente'ma azerino nemania nofira tgahu'za eri timpi netre'za, ventema azeri ante fatgo higeno nevia apa kanonte'ma ki'naza nofira vakane'naze. Anante avugama me'nea selia eri zaho kantega netre'za, hageri ankena kefatgo hu'za vu'naze.
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.
Ventemo'a have ome amasgino anampi vuno'eno osu'are agi'mo'a runtanigeno, ruga ragati hagerimo'a avunema anteno riga'a rutamana hutre'ne.
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].
E'i sondia vahe'mo'za kina vahe zamahe frinaku ke retro hu'naze. Hanki mago'mo'a zanagora aruno tatareno ofregahie hu'za hu'naze.
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.
Hu'nazanagi sondia vahete kva ne'mo'a' Poli'na avare so'e huno aza huno vuku agesa nentahino, sondia vahe'mo'za kina vahera ozmahesaze nehuno, azagama zanago ruga hu'nesamoka ventefintira takaurenka pusante tinkenare vugahaze huno hige'za,
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.
