Acts 27
1 And when our sailing to Italy was determined, they were delivering up both Paul and certain others, prisoners, to a centurion, by name Julius, of the band of Sebastus,
Paŵalamwile kuti tujaule ku Italia ni ngalaŵa ŵammisile che Paolo pamo ni ŵatawe ŵane mmakono ga che Juliasi, juŵaliji jwankulu jwa ŵangondo mumpingo waukuŵilanjikwa “Mpingo wa Agusto.”
2 and having embarked in a ship of Adramyttium, we, being about to sail by the coasts of Asia, did set sail, there being with us Aristarchus, a Macedonian of Thessalonica,
Twakwesile ngalaŵa jekulungwa jijatyochelaga ku Adiliamiti, jijaliji chile kutanda ulendo kupitila mbwani ja chilambo cha ku Asia ni twatandite ulendo. Che Alisitako mundu jwa ku Makedonia kutyochela ku Sesalonike ŵalongene noweji.
3 on the next [day] also we touched at Sidon, and Julius, courteously treating Paul, did permit [him], having gone on unto friends, to receive [their] care.
Lyuŵa lyaaŵili twaiche ku Sidoni ni ngalaŵa. Nipele che Juliasi ŵaapanganichisye yambone che Paolo, ŵalesile ajaule kwa achambusangagwe kuti apegwe yaikwasoŵa.
4 And thence, having set sail, we sailed under Cyprus, because of the winds being contrary,
Kutyochela kweleko twajendelechele ni ulendo, ni twapite mungulugulu chilumba cha Kupulo tuchilisepusyaga ni mbungo jijaliji jininkupuga nnope kutyochela paujo petu.
5 and having sailed over the sea over-against Cilicia and Pamphylia, we came to Myria of Lycia,
Twajombweche bahali ja Kilikia ni Pamfilia ni twaiche mmusi wa Mila chilambo cha ku Likia.
6 and there the centurion having found a ship of Alexandria, sailing to Italy, did put us into it,
Ni kweleko jwankulu jwa ŵangondo jula ŵajisimene ngalaŵa jekulungwa jichikopochelaga ku Alekisandilia kwaula ku Italia, nombejo ŵatujinjisye mwelemo.
7 and having sailed slowly many days, and with difficulty coming over-against Cnidus, the wind not suffering us, we sailed under Crete, over-against Salmone,
Twajesile mbolembole moŵa gamajinji ni twaiche pachiŵandi ni Nido nkulaga. Pakuŵa mbungo jatusiŵilile kuendelechela ni twapite kusini kwa chilumba cha Kilete kuŵandikana ni Salomone.
8 and hardly passing it, we came to a certain place called 'Fair Havens,' nigh to which was the city [of] Lasaea.
Twapite mumbwani kwa kulaga ni twaiche peuto papakuŵilanjikwa “Bandari jambone,” pachiŵandi musi wa Lasea.
9 And much time being spent, and the sailing being now dangerous — because of the fast also being already past — Paul was admonishing,
Gaapite moŵa gamajinji ni moŵa gakutaŵa gaapite, ni twaliji mmoŵa ga kogoya kuendelechela ni ulendo wa mu ngalaŵa. Nipele che Paolo ŵaajamwiche achitiji,
10 saying to them, 'Men, I perceive that with hurt, and much damage, not only of the lading and of the ship, but also of our lives — the voyage is about to be;'
“Achalongo achinjangu, nguwona kuti ulendo wu chiuŵe wa kogoya ni kusoyesya indu, ngaŵa kwa ndundu ni ngalaŵa pe, nambo kwa umi wetu nombe.”
11 but the centurion to the pilot and to the shipowner gave credence more than to the things spoken by Paul;
Nambo jwankulu jwa ŵangondo jula ŵagapikanile nnope maloŵe ga juŵalongosyaga ngalaŵa ni nsyene ngalaŵa kupunda maloŵe gaŵaŵechete che Paolo gala.
12 and the haven being incommodious to winter in, the more part gave counsel to sail thence also, if by any means they might be able, having attained to Phenice, [there] to winter, [which is] a haven of Crete, looking to the south-west and north-west,
Pakuŵa bandari jo nganijiŵa jambone kutama moŵa ga mbepo, ŵandu ŵaŵatupile ŵajitichisye kuendelechela ni ulendo yakombolekaga aichanje ku Finikisi ni kutama kweleko katema ka mbepo ko. Finikisi jili bandari ja Kilete jajilolite kwiŵanda ni kwichela.
13 and a south wind blowing softly, having thought they had obtained [their] purpose, having lifted anchor, they sailed close by Crete,
Mbungo ja kusi jatandite kupuga ni ŵaganisisye kuti chakombole kutendekanya iŵasachile yo. Nipele ŵanyakwile nanga ni kuŵika mu ngalaŵa, ŵajendelechele ni ulendo ŵapite mbwani kwa mbwani ni kwika ku mbwani ja Kilete.
14 and not long after there arose against it a tempestuous wind, that is called Euroclydon,
Nambo pangakaŵa, mbungo jekulungwa jati mpela chimbunga jajikuŵilanjikwa “Mbungo ja kaskazi” japujile kutyochela ku chilumba.
15 and the ship being caught, and not being able to bear up against the wind, having given [her] up, we were borne on,
Ngalaŵa jila jagombilwe ni mbungo, nombejo nganijikombola kujipunda mbungo, nipele twajilesile jiseleleche ni mbungo.
16 and having run under a certain little isle, called Clauda, we were hardly able to become masters of the boat,
Nkwenda mo twapite upande wa kusini mwa chilumba chachinandi liina lyakwe Kauda, twakombwele kwakulimba nnope kugopola ntumbwi wa kwakulupuchisya ŵandu mu ngalaŵa jekulungwa jila.
17 which having taken up, they were using helps, undergirding the ship, and fearing lest they may fall on the quicksand, having let down the mast — so were borne on.
Achikatumetume ŵaali mu ngalaŵa ŵala paŵanyakulile ntumbwi ula nkati, ŵautaŵilile mu ngalaŵa jila ni ngonji kuulimbisya kuti unajonasiche ni mbungo. Ni pakuŵa ŵajogopaga kutitimila munsanga wejinji mu mbwani ja Libia, kwa yele ŵagatulwisye matanga ni ŵagambaga kwenda pe ni mbungo.
18 And we, being exceedingly tempest-tossed, the succeeding [day] they were making a clearing,
Mbungo jekulungwa jila jajendelechele kupuga ni malaŵi jakwe ŵatandite kwasila ndundu mu bahali.
19 and on the third [day] with our own hands the tackling of the ship we cast out,
Ni lyuŵa lyaatatu ŵajasile ni makono gao achinsyene yoombo ya mu ngalaŵa jekulungwa.
20 and neither sun nor stars appearing for more days, and not a little tempest lying upon us, thenceforth all hope was taken away of our being saved.
Moŵa gamajinji nganitukombola kuliwona lyuŵa atamuno ndondwa ni mbungo jekulungwa jila japundile nnope. Chilolelo chose chati tutulame chamasile.
21 And there having been long fasting, then Paul having stood in the midst of them, said, 'It behoved [you], indeed, O men — having hearkened to me — not to set sail from Crete, and to save this hurt and damage;
Paŵatemi pangalya moŵa gamajinji, wajimi che Paolo pasikati pao ni kuti, “Achambusanga ŵangu nkambikanichisye une kuti kasintyoka ku Kilete ngankalaje kwantinyi ni kupotesya indu yi.
22 and now I exhort you to be of good cheer, for there shall be no loss of life among you — but of the ship;
Sambano ngunchondelela, nkamulichisye ntima pakuŵa ngapagwa jwalijose mwa ŵanyamwe juchawe nambo ngalaŵa pe ni jichijijonasiche.
23 for there stood by me this night a messenger of God — whose I am, and whom I serve —
Pakuŵa chilo katumetume jwa kwinani jwa Akunnungu, Akunnungu jwandesile une kuŵa jwao ni jungwapopelela ŵangopochele,
24 saying, Be not afraid Paul; before Caesar it behoveth thee to stand; and, lo, God hath granted to thee all those sailing with thee;
ni kuusalila, ‘Kasinjogopa che Paolo! Ikuŵajilwa mmwejo kwima paujo pa Mwenye jwa ku Loma. Kwaligongo lyenu mwe Akunnungu chiŵakulupusye wose ŵaali mu ulendo pamo nomwe.’
25 wherefore be of good cheer, men! for I believe God, that so it shall be, even as it hath been spoken to me,
Nipele nkamulichisye ntima, pakuŵa ngwakulupilila Akunnungu kuti chiitendekwe mpela indite pakusalilwa.
26 and on a certain island it behoveth us to be cast.'
Nambo chituponyekwe pa chilumba chimo.”
27 And when the fourteenth night came — we being borne up and down in the Adria — toward the middle of the night the sailors were supposing that some country drew nigh to them;
Chilo cha lyuŵa lya kumi na nne twaliji tuninkukwekwelemya akuno ni akunokuno ni meesi mu bahali ja Mediteleniani. Chilo nnope achikatumetume ŵaali mu ngalaŵa ŵaganisisye kuti tuŵandichile munsanga.
28 and having sounded they found twenty fathoms, and having gone a little farther, and again having sounded, they found fifteen fathoms,
Nipele ŵatulwisye ngoji wawataŵilile chindu chakutopela achisakaga kupima amanyilile ipatite kwendesya ni ŵapatile makono alobaini. Kanyuma kanandi ŵapimile sooni ni ŵapatile makono selasini.
29 and fearing lest on rough places we may fall, out of the stern having cast four anchors, they were wishing day to come.
Ni pakuŵa ŵajogopaga kukwama papali ni lwala, ŵatulwisye nanga ncheche sya kunyuma kwa ngalaŵa ni kupopela kuti kucheje.
30 And the sailors seeking to flee out of the ship, and having let down the boat to the sea, in pretence as [if] out of the foreship they are about to cast anchors,
Ni ŵaŵalongosyaga ngalaŵa ŵala ŵasachile kutila kutyochela mu ngalaŵa ni ŵautulwisye ntumbwi ula achinamanilaga akutulusya nanga sya paujo.
31 Paul said to the centurion and to the soldiers, 'If these do not remain in the ship — ye are not able to be saved;'
Nambo che Paolo ŵansalile jwankulu jwa ŵangondo jula pamo ni ŵangondo ŵane, “Iŵaga ŵanyaŵa ngaatama mu ngalaŵa ngankulupuswa.”
32 then the soldiers did cut off the ropes of the boat, and suffered it to fall off.
Papopo ŵangondo ŵala ŵakatile migoji jijakamulile ntumbwi ni ŵaulesile ujigalikwe ni meesi.
33 And till the day was about to be, Paul was calling upon all to partake of nourishment, saying, 'Fourteen days to-day, waiting, ye continue fasting, having taken nothing,
Kukanaŵe kucha che Paolo ŵachondelele wose kuti alye chakulya achitiji, “Lelo jino lyuŵa lya kumi na nne ntemi ni sala nli nkulolela, pangalya chindu chachili chose.
34 wherefore I call upon you to take nourishment, for this is for your safety, for of not one of you shall a hair from the head fall;'
Nipele ngunchondelela nlye, pakuŵa chichinkulupusye kuti nkawa. Pakuŵa ngalujasika namuno luumbo lumo lwa pa mitwe jenu.”
35 and having said these things, and having taken bread, he gave thanks to God before all, and having broken [it], he began to eat;
Che Paolo paŵamasile kuŵecheta yeleyo ŵajigele nkate, nipele ŵatogolele Akunnungu paujo pa wose, ŵagaŵenye ni kutanda kulya.
36 and all having become of good cheer, themselves also took food,
Nipele wose ŵakamulisye ntima, nombewo ŵalile.
37 (and we were — all the souls in the ship — two hundred, seventy and six),
Ŵatwaliji mu ngalaŵa twaliji ŵandu mia mbili ni sabini na sita.
38 and having eaten sufficient nourishment, they were lightening the ship, casting forth the wheat into the sea.
Patwalile wose ni kwikuta, ŵajijalwisye ngalaŵa jekulungwa kwakwasila ngano mu bahali.
39 And when the day came, they were not discerning the land, but a certain creek were perceiving having a beach, into which they took counsel, if possible, to thrust forward the ship,
Pakwachele ŵaŵalongosyaga ngalaŵa ŵala nganachimanyilila chilambo chila, nambo ŵauweni nsanga ku mbwani. Nipele ŵasachile kujijimika ngalaŵa kweleko naga chakombole.
40 and the anchors having taken up, they were committing [it] to the sea, at the same time — having loosed the bands of the rudders, and having hoisted up the mainsail to the wind — they were making for the shore,
Ŵakatile ngonji sya nanga ni kusileka mu bahali ni ŵagopwele ngonji sisyataŵikwe pa usukani ni kwinamukula tanga ja paujo pa ngalaŵa kuti jikamule mbungo ni kwajausya ku mbwani.
41 and having fallen into a place of two seas, they ran the ship aground, and the fore-part, indeed, having stuck fast, did remain immoveable, but the hinder-part was broken by the violence of the waves.
Nambo ŵaiche pamalekano pagachingangene matala gaŵili ga meesi ga bahali ni ngalaŵa jatanjile palapala. Upaande wa paujo pa ngalaŵa watitimile munsanga pangali kutinganyika, nambo upaande wa panyuma watandite kutemeka kwa ligongo lya machili ga matumbela.
42 And the soldiers' counsel was that they should kill the prisoners, lest any one having swam out should escape,
Ŵangondo ŵasachile ŵaulaje ŵataŵikwe wose atakojelela ŵane ni kutila.
43 but the centurion, wishing to save Paul, hindered them from the counsel, and did command those able to swim, having cast themselves out first — to get unto the land,
Nambo jwankulu jwa ŵangondo achisakaga kwakulupusya che Paolo, ŵaalekasisye ŵangondo akatenda yeleyo. Ŵalamwile ŵaakukombola kojelela alilechelele mmeesi ni kwika kunsanga.
44 and the rest, some indeed upon boards, and some upon certain things of the ship; and thus it came to pass that all came safe unto the land.
Ni ŵaakusigalila wo, ŵane akamulile mbao ni ŵane ipitingwa iyatemeche mu ngalaŵa. Iyoyo ŵandu wose ŵaiche kwa chitendewele ku nsanga.
