Kitetidayta Ootho 27
1 Nuni Xaallane dere markkaben baana mala geeteti qachchetida gish Phawulossane hara qachcho asatakka kawoo Awugisxxossa ola wotadarata gidoofe gidida Yulliyossa geetettiza xeetu halaqas aththi immida.
When it was decided that we should sail for Italy, they proceeded to hand over Paul and a few other prisoners to the custody of Julius, a centurion of the Imperial Regiment.
2 Issiya abba achan diza dereta biza markkaben gillidi bidos. Tesellonqqen diza issi Maqidonyya asi Arisxxirokossa geetettizadey nunara dees.
We embarked in a ship of Adramyttium which was about to sail to the ports of the province of Asia, and put to sea. Aristarchus, a Macedonian of Thessalonica, accompanied us.
3 Wonttetha gallas sidona gizaso gakkidos; Yulliyossay Phawulossas loo7o gidida gish Phawulossay ba laggetakko biidi asay izas koshshiza maado ooththana mala piqade immides.
The next day we touched at Sidon. There Julius treated Paul kindly, and gave him leave to visit his friends and refresh himself.
4 Heepe danddi nu bishin sinththa baggara carkkoy nu bolla carkkiza gish abba gidoon diza Qophphorosse deren gemmetidi gede sinththe bidos.
Putting to sea from thence we sailed under the lee of Cyprus, because the winds were against us;
5 Killqqiya gizassone Phinhaaththailiya giza dere achchan diza abba pinddi Luqqiya giza deren diza Muura giza kaatama gakkidos.
and after sailing across the Cilician and Pamphylian waters, we came to Myra, in Lycia.
6 Heen xeistata hallaqay Xallane dere biza iskkinddiriya dere markkabe demmidi nuna izan gellithides.
And there the centurion found an Alexandrian ship bound for Italy, and put us on board of her.
7 Daroo gallas loddu gi gi biidi daroo wayettidi Qandose geetettiza kaatama achchi gakkidos; Carkkoykka nu sinthth boontta mala diggin Sallimoon achchara adhdhidi Qarxxese geetettiza abba gidoon diza haruro deren gemettidi bidos.
For many days we sailed slowly, and then arrived with difficulty over against Cnidus; from this point, as the wind did not further favor us, we ran under the lee of Crete, off Cape Salmone;
8 Daroo wayettidi dira dira oykki nu adhdhidape guye Lasyya giza kaatama achchan diza “Loo7o” geetettiza markabe getetizaso gakkidos.
and coasting along with difficulty we reached a place called Fair Havens, not far from the town of Lasea.
9 Nu biza oge bolla daroo dabuuran xooma wodey adhdhida gish ha7i abba bolla baanas daroo meeto gidida gish Phawulossay benara diza asay naggettana mala hizzgides.
By this time the season was far advanced, and sailing had become dangerous (for the Autumn Fast was past); so Paul began to warn them.
10 “Aso! hayssafe nu kaallidi baana buussay daroo meetora dizayssi tas beettes; Markkabezan diza caanaza bollanne markkabeza bolla xalala gidoontta asa shemppo bollaka gita qohooy gakkana.”
"Sirs," he said to them, "I perceive that the voyage will be attended with injury and serious loss, not only to the cargo and to the ship, but also to our own lives."
11 Xeistata halaqay qass Phawulossa zoreppe bollara markkabeza lagiza wanazinne marakabeza goday gizayssa siyides.
But the centurion paid greater heed to the master and to the owner than to anything that was spoken by Paul;
12 He markkabey eqqizasoy ballggoy adhdhana gakkanaas markkabes loo7o shempposo gidoontta gish dariza bagga asay “hammutha sinthth gujjanas dandda7ettiko away wullizasope duge baggarane puude baggara diza Pinqqe gizaso Qarxeese markkabe shempposo nu gakkidi ballggo heen aaththos” giidi ba qoofa shishshida.
and as the harbor was ill adapted for winter quarters, the majority advised putting out to sea from thence, to see whether they could get to Phoenix and winter there, a harbor on the coast of Crete facing northeast and southeast.
13 Duge baggara guuththa carkkooy carkkishin beeyidi istti qoppida mala hanana millattin baana kezida; Markkabey eqqizasope baana denddidi qarxxeese achchara dira dira oykkidi adhdhi bida.
And when the south wind blew softly, supposing that they had obtained their purpose, they weighed anchor and sailed along Crete, close in shore.
14 Gido attin guuththa wodepe guye “Away mokkizasope puude bagara yiza gote carkko” geetettiza iita wolliqama carkkoy abba gidoon diza dereype denddidi isttakko abba gidoo yides.
But it was not long before a furious wind, called Euroclydon, rushed down from the island;
15 Markkabeya carkkoy sugin carkkara eqqeettana dandda7ontta ixxin nu coou giidi carkkoy ehaaththaizaso bidos.
when the ship was caught and could not face the wind, we gave way to it, and let her drive.
16 Qeeda geetettiza abba gidoon diza dere dizarin geemettidi nu bishin daroo wayettidi markkabeza qeeri wogoloyo oykkidi essanas dandda7idos.
Then we ran under the lee of a little island named Claudia, where with great difficulty we were able to secure the ship’s boat.
17 Markkabeza laaggizayti qeeri wogoloyo markkabezako goochchi keessidi markkabeza woodorora xaxxida. Markkabezikka Surtese geetettiza abba accey dari dizason kunddontta mala babbidi iza bolla diza shaara woththidi carkkon laageti bida.
After hauling it aboard, they used ropes to undergird the ship, and since they were fearful lest they should be driven upon the Syrtes, they lowered the gear and lay to.
18 Gote carkkoy miinni bida gish wonttetha gallas markkkabezan caanettida miishshata issa issa abba gidoo yeggeth oykkida.
And as we were being terribly battered by the storm, the next day they began to throw the freight overboard,
19 Hedzdzanththo gallas markkabezas koshshiza miishshatakka ba kushera kessi kessi yeggida.
and on the third day with their own hands they threw the ship’s tackling overboard.
20 Daroo wode gakkanaas awa arsheka xoolintteka beyontta aggida gishinne carkkoyka kasseppe miinni miinni biza gish hayssafe guye nu attana dandda7okko giza qohaaththaan ufays qanxidos.
Then when for many days neither sun nor stars were seen, and a great tempest still beat upon us, all hope that we should be saved was now taken away from us.
21 Asay kathth moontta daro gallas uttides. Hessa gish phawulossay asa gidoon eqqidi hizgides “ha asato! Inte ta giza siyidi Qarxxeseppe denddonttako ha qohoyne ha dhayoy inte bolla gakkenakoshin.
When for a long time they had been without food, Paul stood among them and said. "Men, you ought to have listened to me, and not have set sail from Crete, and so have spared yourselves this injury and loss.
22 Ha7ikka markkabezi xalla qohettana attin intefe issade shempoykka dhayenna. Hessa gish aykkoy bawa; babbofite gaada intena zorayssl.
"But now take courage. There will be no loss of life among you, but only of the ship,
23 Qamma omars ta izas gidida ta goynniza Xoossi kittida kitanchay ta achchan eqqidi
"for last night an angel of the God whose I am and whom I serve, stood by me and said.
24 (Phawulosa! Babbopa ne Qeessare sinththan eqqana beeses; hekko nenara isfe bizayta wurssi Xoossi ne gish hayqqope ashshana) giidi tas yootides.
"‘Fear not, Paul; you must stand before Caesar. Behold, God has granted you the lives of all who are sailing with you.’
25 Hessa gish inteno asato aykkoy bawa; Xoossi tas hayssa yootidayssa polanayssa ta ammanayss.
"So take courage, men! I believe God, I believe that things will turn out exactly as it has been told me.
26 Gidikokka hayssa gote carkkozi gede issi abba gidoon diza dere achchi ehaaththaidi nuna yeggana.”
"But we must be cast upon a certain island."
27 Taammanne oyddanththo qaamma Mediterane abba gidoon carkkoy nuna wayssishin bishe gidi giddothi markkabeza lagaizaytas abbafe biita bolla gakkida millatides.
It was now the fourteenth night, and we were drifting through the Adriatic Sea when, about midnight, the sailors began to suspect that they were drawing near to some land.
28 Hessa gish abba ciimmmateth erranas abban yeggi xeelliza wodoro istti yeggi xeellishin; abba ciimmatethi oyddu taamu mitire keena gidi beettides; gammishe haikka yeggin hedzdzu taamu mitire keena ciimma gididayssa demmida.
So they sounded and found twenty fathoms; and after a little they sounded again, and found fifteen fathoms.
29 Nu diza markkabey abba gaxxan diza zaalla shuchchara gaccetontta mala babbidi markkabezappe guye baggara markkabey qaxxontta mala nagiza dhishshike duge abba gidoo yeggida. Hessafe guye isttas qamay wonttana mala woossa oykida.
Then, fearing lest we should run ashore on the rocks, they threw out four anchors from the stern, and longed for day to come.
30 Markabeza lagizayti markkabezape kezidi baqqatana koyda gish markkabezappe sinththa baggara markkabe naggiza dhishshke yegiza millatidi markkabeza bolla diza qeeri wogoloyo duge aabba gidoo yeggida.
And when the sailors were trying to flee from the ship, and had lowered the boat into the sea under pretext of laying anchors from the bow,
31 Hessa wode phawulossay xeetu olla asa hallaqane olla asa wotadarata “hayti markkabezan diza asati markkabeza bolla shemppidi uttontta aggiko intekka attana dandda7ekkista” gides.
Paul said to the centurion and to the soldiers, "Unless these men remain on the ship, you cannot be saved."
32 Hessa gish olla asati wogoloyo oykkida wodoroza qanxxi yeggin iza abba bolla tookistana mala yeedi aggida.
Then the soldiers cut the ropes of the ship’s boat and let her fall off.
33 Gadey wonttana gishin wurikka kathth maana mala phawulossay istta hizzgi wossides “inte aazi hananesha giidi hirgan kathth moontta aaggin hachchi taammane oyddanththo gaallaskko.
And while day was dawning, Paul kept urging them all to take some food. "This is the fourteenth day," he said, "that you have been on the watch, fasting, having eaten nothing.
34 Hessa gish inte kathth maana mala ta intena wossayss. Inte miikko miinnana; muleka aykko qohoykka inte bolla gakkena.”
"So I beg you to take some food, for this is for your safety. For there shall not a hair perish from the head of any one of you."
35 Izi hessa gidape guye kathth ekkidi xoossu galatidi asa wursso sinththan kaath muussu oykkides.
When he had so said and had taken bread, he gave thanks to God before them all, and broke it and began to eat.
36 Hessa wode wurikkka minetidi kaththi mida.
Then they all cheered up and themselves took food.
37 Markkabeza gidoon diza asay wuri nam77u xeistane laapun taammanne usupuna.
There were in the ship two hundred and seventy-six souls, all told.
38 Wurikka mi kaallidape guye markkaben caanetida gistteza duge abba gidoo yeggidi markkabeza deexo kawushshida.
After eating a hearty meal, they began to lighten the ship by throwing the wheat overboard.
39 Gadey wonttin ba dizaso erribeytena. Gido attin accEy dizaso abba kirqqunththu demmida. Isttas dandda7etizako markkabeza he sugi shishshana qoppida.
When it was day they tried in vain to recognize the land, but they spied an inlet with a sandy beach, and they began conferring to see whether they could drive the ship into it.
40 Markkabeza oykkiza dhishike qanxidi aabba gidoo yeggida. He wode markkabe laggiza wodorota birshida. Ha baggara diza shaara carkko bagga dhoqu histtidi kezana abba gaxa bida.
They cast off the anchors and left them in the sea, and unloosing at the same time the ropes that tied the rudders, they hoisted the foresail to the breeze, and headed for the beach.
41 Gido attin markkabeza droo accey koreti uttidayssara iccetidi duge gufaniddes.; Siidhe bolla duge dhishshiketidi qaxxonttayssa giddies. Qass abba dambbalay daroope denddidayssan guye baggara meqqereteth oykkides.
But coming to a place where two seas met, they ran the ship aground; the bow struck and remained fixed, but the stern began to break up under the violence of the waves.
42 Qachcho asappe isadeykka abban wodhdhidi kessi ekkontta mala olla asati wodhana qoppida.
Now the soldiers were planning to kill the prisoners, lest any of them should swim off and so escape.
43 Xeistata hallaqay qass Phawulossa ashshanas koyda gish istta qohaaththaa ekkana koybeyna. Gido attin haththe waadhi errizayti markkabezape duge abban guppi guppi woodhdhidi gede biita bolla kezana mala azazides.
But the centurion kept them from their purpose, because he wished to save Paul. He gave orders that those who could swim should first jump overboard and get to land;
44 Hinkko attidayti qass sanqqata bollane markkabepe meeqqi wodhdhida sanqqa bolla abba pinnanamala azazides; hessaththo handdi wurikka saaron abba gidoofe biita bolla gakkida.
and that the rest should follow, some on planks and some on other bits of wreckage. And so it came to pass that all escaped safe to the land.
