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,
Pevamali kuvika mpangu wa lugendu lwa tete kuhamba Italia, Pauli pamonga na vafungwa vangi vagotoliwi pahi pa ulonda wa Juliasi mweavi Mkulu wa msambi wa manjolinjoli pagati ya chikundi chechikemelewa “Chikundi cha Augusti.”
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,
Tayingili muwatu wewahuma ku Adilamito wewavedukila mumbwani ya miji ya Asia. Kangi tawukili pamonga na mkolonjinji wa Makedonia kuhuma Tesalonike liina laki Alistako.
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.
Chilau yaki tahikili kumbwani ya Sidoni. Juliasi amhengili lipyana Pauli kwa kumyidakila avalola vankozi vaki na kupata vindu vyaaganili.
4 And thence, having set sail, we sailed under Cyprus, because of the winds being contrary,
Kuhuma kwenuko, tagendili mumhana mwa chisiwa cha Kuplo ndava ya kuyepa mpungu wewabuma kuhuma kulongolo yitu.
5 and having sailed over the sea over-against Cilicia and Pamphylia, we came to Myria of Lycia,
Kangi takupwiki nyanja ya upandi wa Kilikia na Pamfulia, tahikili Mula muji wa Lukia.
6 and there the centurion having found a ship of Alexandria, sailing to Italy, did put us into it,
Penapo Mkulu wa msambi yula, aukolili watu wewihuma ku Alekisandalia na kuhamba ku Italia, ndi akatiyingisa mugati.
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,
Tagendili mbolimboli mulukumbi lwa magono gamahele cha kutyalatyala neju tahikili papipi na muji wa Nido. Ndava ya mpungu wewatikang'ayi kuhuma kulongolo ndi tikahamba lumonga upandi wa Kilete kuhamba pandu pa yeyikemiwa Salimone.
8 and hardly passing it, we came to a certain place called 'Fair Havens,' nigh to which was the city [of] Lasaea.
Tapitili mumhana ya mbwani kwa kutyalatyala na kuhika pandu pepikemelewa “Bandali ya Bwina,” Papipi na muji 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,
Lukumbi lwamahele lwamali kupita, hati magono ga kujihinisa chakulya gamaliki. Hinu vayogwipi neju lugendu lwa muwatu. Pauli akavajovela malovi aga.
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;'
“Mwavagosi, nihololela kuvya lugendu lwitu yati wivya na mang'ahiso na kuyagisa lepi ndava ya ndwika na watu ndu, nambu mewa na wumi witu.”
11 but the centurion to the pilot and to the shipowner gave credence more than to the things spoken by Paul;
Nambu Mkulu wa manjolinjoli yula akasadika neju malovi ga mgendesa watu na ga mkolo watu, kuliku malovi ga Pauli.
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,
Hinu ndava bandali yeniyo yavi lepi nafwasi ya bwina kutama lukumbi lwa mbepu. Ndi vamahele pagati yavi vayidakilini kuwuka penapo na kuhamba mbaka Foinike ngati yihotoleka na kutama kwenuko mkulukumbi lwa mbepu. Bandali ya Kilete yeyihamba kwelihumila lilanga na kusini kwelitipama lilanga.
13 and a south wind blowing softly, having thought they had obtained [their] purpose, having lifted anchor, they sailed close by Crete,
Hinu, mpungu wa bwina pawatumbwili kubuma, vene vakahololela kuvya mpangu wavi wihotoleka, hinu vakahuta nanga vakatumbula lugendu kuni vigendesa watu papipi na mbwani ya Kilete.
14 and not long after there arose against it a tempestuous wind, that is called Euroclydon,
Kwakona vangahika patali, mpungu ukali weukemiwa “Mpungu Eulokilo.” Watumbwili kubuma kuhuma muchisiwa.
15 and the ship being caught, and not being able to bear up against the wind, having given [her] up, we were borne on,
Mpungu waukang'ili watu, wene wahotwili lepi kukangamala nawu, ndi taulekili mpungu uyikang'ayi.
16 and having run under a certain little isle, called Clauda, we were hardly able to become masters of the boat,
Na petapitayi pachisiwa chidebe chechikemiwa Kauda, tatyalityali nambu tahotwili kuukunga mtumbwi wa watu.
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.
Vanalihengu va muwatu pevamali kuyigisa mtumbwi wula mugati, ndi vakaukunga nyosi kwa makakala. Vayogwipi kukwama pa lilundu la masavati ga papipi na mbwani ya ku Libya, vakahelesa nyosi na kuleka watu wikang'iswa na mpungu.
18 And we, being exceedingly tempest-tossed, the succeeding [day] they were making a clearing,
Mpungu na manji gatimbungini na pachilau yaki, vakatumbula kutaga ndwika munyanja.
19 and on the third [day] with our own hands the tackling of the ship we cast out,
Na ligono la datu vakatumbula kutaga vindu vya watu kwa mawoko gavi vene.
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.
Mu magono gamahele valiwene lepi lilanga amala ndondo, mpungu na manji vyayendalili kutimbugana neju, kuhuvalila kwa kusanguka gavamaliki.
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;
Pavatamili magono gamahele changalya, Pauli akayima pagati yavi akajova, “Vamtopeswa, mbanga kuvya muniyuwanili malovi gangu ga kuleka kuwuka Kilete, ngatiyepili mang'ahiso ago pamonga na kuyagisa vindu ivi.
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;
Nambu hinu nivayupa mjikangamalisa mtima, muni kawaka hati mundu mmonga mweiyagisa wumi waki, nambu watu wene ndi wewiyaga.
23 for there stood by me this night a messenger of God — whose I am, and whom I serve —
Ndava muni golo kilu Mtumu wa kunani kwa Chapanga, kuhuma kwa Chapanga mwenikumuhengela, anihumalili,
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;
akanijovela, ‘Pauli, kotoka kuyogopa! Yikukugana kuyima palongolo ya Nkosi wa ku Loma, Chapanga mwene yimganisi, ndi kwa ubwina waki akuvasangula wumi wa voha mulugendu lwinu.’
25 wherefore be of good cheer, men! for I believe God, that so it shall be, even as it hath been spoken to me,
Hinu vamtopeswa, mjikamngamalisa mtima ndava muni nikumsadika Chapanga kuvya givya mewawa ngati chenijoviwi.
26 and on a certain island it behoveth us to be cast.'
Nambu yikutigana kutagwa kundumba ya chisiwa chimonga.”
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;
Ligono la kumi na mcheche kilu manji pagatumbwili kutimbugana tikanga'iswa kuni na kula munyanja ya Adilia. Pagati ya kilu vanalihengu muwatu vaholalili kuvya papipi na pandumba.
28 and having sounded they found twenty fathoms, and having gone a little farther, and again having sounded, they found fifteen fathoms,
Vakalonda utali wa pahi wa nyanja kwa kuhelesa nyosi yeyakungiwi chindu chechitopa, vapatili utali wa mita alobaini. Na pavapimili kavili mwanakandahi vapatili utali wa mita 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.
Ndava ya kuyogopa kukwama mumatalau ndi vakahelesa nanga mcheche za upandi mumbele mwa watu, vakamuyupa Chapanga kwicha kanyata.
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,
Vanalihengu va muwatu, vaganili kutila ndi vamali kuhelesa mtumbwi wavi mumanji, vakongayi kuvya vihamba kulongolo kuhelesa nanga za muwatu.
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;'
Nambu Pauli amjovili Mkulu wa msambi yula pamonga na manjolinjoli vangi, “Vanalihengu ava ngati vitama lepi mugati ya watu, yati mwisanguliwa lepi.”
32 then the soldiers did cut off the ropes of the boat, and suffered it to fall off.
Penapo ndi manjolinjoli vala vakadumula nyosi zezakamwili mtumbwi wula, vakauleka uhamba na manji.
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,
Papipi na hamba kucha, Pauli akavayupa voha valyayi chakulya, “Lelu ndi ligono la kumi na mcheche vavili na wogoyi lukumbi lwoha ulo mwangalya chindu.
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;'
Hinu, nikuvayupa mlyayi chakulya muni mukuchigana muhotola kulama, Muni kawaka hati luyunju lumonga wa mitu yinu lweluyaga.”
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;
Peamali kujova malovi ago, Pauli akatola libumunda, akamsengusa Chapanga palongolo yavi voha akametula akatumbula kulya.
36 and all having become of good cheer, themselves also took food,
Kangi voha vakasindimala mtima, navene mewa vakalya chakulya.
37 (and we were — all the souls in the ship — two hundred, seventy and six),
Mugati ya watu wula tavi vandu miya zivili na sabini na sita.
38 and having eaten sufficient nourishment, they were lightening the ship, casting forth the wheat into the sea.
Pevamali kulya na kuyukuta kila mundu, ndi vapungwizi utopa kwa watu, kwa kutaga nganu munyanja.
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,
Kwapachili, vanalihengu vala vaumanyili lepi mulima wula, ndi vayiwene ndumba yeyivi papipi na manji, vakajovesana vayegeka watu kwenuko ngati yihotoleka.
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,
Ndi, vakadumula nanga na kuzileka munyanja, mewa vakahuta nyosi za kugendesela watu, kangi vakatola chitambala chimonga kulongolo kukinga mpungu, vakahamba kundumba.
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.
Nambu vahikili pamngonganu wa manji, na watu wakwamili, upandi wa kulongolo wajwigwimi mumasavati changali kunyugusika. Upandi wa mumbele wa watu watumbwili kudenyekana hipandi hipandi ndava kukang'wa na mpungu ga manji ga kutimbugana.
42 And the soldiers' counsel was that they should kill the prisoners, lest any one having swam out should escape,
Manjolinjoli vavi na mpangu wa kuvakoma vafungwa voha ndava ya kuyogopa kuvya vihotola kusambalila mbaka kundumba na 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,
Nambu Mkulu wa msambi yula aganili kumsangula Pauli, avabesili valeka mpangu wavi. Akalagiza vevimanya kusambalila vahumba kuhuma muwatu na kusambalila mbaka kundumba,
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.
na vevasigalili vajisangula kwa kukamulila mbau amala chipandi cha watu weudenyiki, ndi tavoha tahikili tavamumi kundumba.
