< Atũmwo 27 >
1 Na rĩrĩa gwatuirwo atĩ nĩtũkũhaica marikabu tũthiĩ Italia, Paũlũ na andũ arĩa angĩ mooheetwo makĩneanwo kũrĩ mũnene-wa-thigari-igana rĩmwe, warĩ wa mbũtũ ya Agusito, wetagwo Juliasi.
And Festus commanded, respecting him, that he should be sent to Italy, unto Caesar. And he delivered Paul, and other prisoners with him, to a certain man, a centurion of the Augustan cohort, whose name was Julius.
2 Tũkĩhaica marikabu yoimĩte Aduramutio ĩrĩa yakirie gũthiĩ icukĩro-inĩ cia marikabu iria ciarĩ ndwere-inĩ cia iria rĩrĩa inene bũrũri-inĩ wa Asia, na ithuĩ tũkĩambĩrĩria rũgendo tũgĩthiĩ. Nake Arisitariko, Mũmakedonia woimĩte Thesalonike, aarĩ hamwe na ithuĩ.
And when we were to depart, we embarked in a ship which was from the city of Adramyttium, and was going to the country of Asia. And there embarked with us in the ship, Aristarchus, a Macedonian of the city of Thessalonica.
3 Mũthenya ũyũ ũngĩ tũgĩkinya Sidoni; nake Juliasi, nĩ ũndũ wa kũiguĩra Paũlũ tha, akĩmwĩtĩkĩria athiĩ kũrĩ arata aake nĩguo mamũhe kĩrĩa angĩabatarire.
And the next day, we arrived at Zidon. And the centurion treated Paul with kindness, and permitted him to visit his friends and be refreshed.
4 Twoima kũu tũkĩambĩrĩria rũgendo rĩngĩ, tũgereire mwena ũrĩa ũtaarĩ rũhuho wa Kuporo, tondũ huho cioimaga na mwena ũrĩa twathiiaga.
And on sailing from there, because the winds were against us, we sailed around to Cyprus.
5 Twaarĩkia gũtuĩkania iria rĩrĩa inene rĩrĩa rĩarĩ gũkuhĩ na mabũrũri ma Kilikia na Pamufilia tũgĩkinya itũũra rĩa Mira, bũrũri-inĩ wa Likia.
And we passed over the sea of Cilicia and Pamphylia, and arrived at Myra, a city of Lycia.
6 Tũrĩ kũu mũnene ũcio wa thigari igana rĩmwe akĩona marikabu ya Alekisanderia yathiiaga Italia, nake agĩtũhaicia yo.
And there the centurion found a ship of Alexandria, which was going to Italy; and he set us on board of it.
7 Tũgĩthiĩ kahora ihinda rĩa mĩthenya mĩingĩ na tũrĩ na thĩĩna mũingĩ nginya tũgĩkinya gũkuhĩ na Kinido. Na rĩrĩa rũhuho rwagiririe tũthiĩ ũrĩa twendaga-rĩ, tũgĩthiĩ tũgereire mwena ũrĩa ũtaarĩ rũhuho wa Kirete, kũngʼethera Salimone.
And as it was hard navigating, we had scarcely arrived, after many days, over against the isle of Cnidos. And, because the wind would not allow us to pursue a straight course, we sailed around by Crete, and came opposite the city of Salmone.
8 Nĩtwathiire na thĩĩna mũingĩ tũgereire ndwere-inĩ cia iria rĩrĩa inene na tũgĩkinya handũ heetagwo Gĩcukĩro Kĩega, hakuhĩ na itũũra rĩa Lasea.
And with difficulty, after sailing about it, we arrived at a place called the Fair Havens, near to which was the city called Lassa.
9 Mahinda maingĩ nĩmathirĩte, na gũthiĩ na marikabu kwarĩ na ũgwati tondũ ihinda rĩa Gĩathĩ gĩa Kwĩhinga kũrĩa Irio nĩrĩahĩtũkĩte. Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Paũlũ akĩmataara akĩmeera atĩrĩ,
And we were there a long time, and till after the day of the Jewish fast. And it was hazardous then for any one to go by sea; and Paul counselled them,
10 “Athuuri aya, nĩnguona atĩ rũgendo rwitũ nĩ rũgũkorwo na mũtino na rũrehe hathara nene kũrĩ marikabu na mĩrigo o na nginya kũrĩ mĩoyo iitũ yo mĩene.”
and said: Men, I perceive that our voyage will be attended with peril, and with much loss, not only of the cargo of our ship, but also of our lives.
11 No mũnene ũcio wa thigari igana rĩmwe, handũ ha gũthikĩrĩria ũrĩa Paũlũ oigaga, aarũmĩrĩire ũtaari wa mũtwarithia wa marikabu o na wa mwene marikabu ĩyo.
But the centurion listened to the pilot, and to the owner of the ship, more than to the words of Paul.
12 Tondũ gĩcukĩro kĩu gĩtiarĩ kĩega gĩa gũikarwo hĩndĩ ya heho-rĩ, andũ aingĩ magĩtua itua tũthiĩ na mbere, twĩhokete gũkinya Foinike, tũikare kuo hĩndĩ ĩyo ya heho. Gĩkĩ kĩarĩ gĩcukĩro kĩa meeri gĩa Kirete, nakĩo kĩangʼetheire mwena wa gũthini wa ithũĩro, o ũndũ ũmwe na mwena wa gathigathini wa ithũĩro.
And, because that harbor was not commodious for wintering in, many of us were desirous to sail from it, and if possible, to reach and to winter in a certain harbor of Crete, which was called Phenice, and which opened towards the south.
13 Rĩrĩa rũhuho rumĩte mwena wa gũthini rwambĩrĩirie kũhurutana kahora-rĩ, magĩĩciiria nĩmona kĩrĩa mendaga, na nĩ ũndũ ũcio makĩohora marikabu magĩthiĩ magereire hũgũrũrũ-inĩ cia Kirete.
And when the south wind breezed up, and they hoped to arrive as they desired, we began to sail around Crete.
14 Na ihinda rĩtanathiĩ mũno, rũhuho rwa hinya wa kĩhuhũkanio kĩnene rwetagwo “Eurakilo,” rũkĩhurutana ruumĩte gĩcigĩrĩra-inĩ kĩu.
And shortly after, a tempest of wind arose upon us, called Typhonic Euroclydon.
15 Nayo marikabu ĩkĩnyiitwo nĩ kĩhuhũkanio kĩu ĩkĩremwo nĩgũthiĩ na kũrĩa rũhuho rwoimaga, nĩ ũndũ ũcio tũkĩmĩrekereria ĩtwarwo nĩ rũhuho.
And the ship was whirled about by the wind, and could not keep head to it; and we resigned the ship to its power.
16 Na rĩrĩa twahĩtũkagĩra gacigĩrĩra-inĩ kanini geetagwo Kauda, nĩtwarĩ na thĩĩna wa kũhaicia gatarũ ga kũhonokia andũ igũrũ wa marikabu.
And when we had passed a certain island, called Cyra, we could hardly retain the boat.
17 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa andũ acio maakahaicirie marikabu-inĩ, makĩhĩtũkĩria mĩkanda rungu rwa marikabu yo nyene nĩgeetha mamĩohe wega. Nĩ ũndũ wa gwĩtigĩra kũhata mũthanga-inĩ wa handũ heetagwo Siriti-rĩ, makĩharũrũkia matanga na makĩrekereria marikabu ĩyo ĩtwarwo o kũrĩa ĩngĩatwarirwo nĩ rũhuho.
And after hoisting it on board, we girded the ship around the waist, and made it strong. And, because we were afraid of falling upon a precipice of the sea, we pulled own the sail; and so we drifted.
18 Nĩtwanyariirĩkire mũno nĩ ũndũ wa kĩhuhũkanio kĩu o nginya mũthenya ũyũ ũngĩ makĩambĩrĩria gũikia mĩrigo iria-inĩ.
And as the storm raged violently upon us, we the next day threw goods into the sea.
19 Naguo mũthenya wa gatatũ makĩambĩrĩria gũikia indo cia wĩra cia marikabu iria-inĩ na moko mao ene.
And on the third day, with our own hands, we threw away the tackling of the ship.
20 Na rĩrĩa kwaagire kuoneka riũa kana njata ihinda rĩa mĩthenya mĩingĩ, nakĩo kĩhuhũkanio gĩgĩthiĩ na mbere kũhuhũkania-rĩ, tũkĩrigĩrĩria na kwaga mwĩhoko o wothe wa kũhonoka.
And as the storm held on for many days, and as no sun was visible, nor moon, nor stars, all hope of our surviving was wholly cut off.
21 Thuutha wa andũ gũikara ihinda iraaya matekũrĩa, Paũlũ akĩrũgama mbere yao akĩmeera atĩrĩ: “Andũ aya, nĩ kaba mũngĩetĩkĩrire ũtaaro wakwa mwage kuuma Kirete, hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩmũngĩehonokirie kuumana na ũgwati ũyũ o na hathara ĩno.
And as no one had taken a meal of food, Paul now stood up in the midst of them, and said: If ye had given heed to me, O men, we should not have sailed from Crete, and we should have been exempt from this loss and peril.
22 No rĩrĩ, nĩngũmũthaitha mũthiĩ na mbere kũũmĩrĩria, tondũ gũtirĩ o na ũmwe wanyu ũkũũra; tiga marikabu iiki ĩkwanangĩka.
And now, I counsel you to be without anxiety; for not a soul of you will be lost, but only the ship.
23 Ũtukũ ũyũ, mũraika wa Ngai ũrĩa niĩ ndĩ wake na ũrĩa ndungataga nĩarũgamire hakuhĩ na niĩ na
For there appeared to me this night, the angel of that God whose I am, and whom I serve;
24 aanjĩĩra atĩrĩ, ‘Paũlũ ndũkae gwĩtigĩra. No nginya ũrũgame mbere ya Kaisari ũciirithio; na rĩrĩ, Ngai tondũ wa wega wake, nĩekũhonokia mĩoyo ya andũ arĩa othe ũrĩ nao.’
and he said to me: Fear not, Paul; for thou art yet to stand before Caesar; and, lo, God hath made a gift to thee of all them that sail with thee.
25 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, inyuĩ andũ aya, thiĩi na mbere kũũmĩrĩria, nĩgũkorwo ndĩ na wĩtĩkio thĩinĩ wa Ngai atĩ nĩgũkũhaana o ta ũguo aanjĩĩrĩte.
Therefore, men, be ye courageous; for I confide in God, that it will be as was told to me.
26 No o na kũrĩ ũguo no nginya tũhate gĩcigĩrĩra-inĩ kĩna.”
Yet we are to be cast upon a certain island.
27 Na rĩrĩ, ũtukũ wa mũthenya wa ikũmi na ĩna wakinya, o tũgĩtwarithagio ũũ na ũũ nĩ rũhuho tũtuĩkanĩirie iria rĩrĩa rĩĩtagwo Adiria-rĩ, ũtukũ gatagatĩ atwarithia a marikabu makĩgereria nĩmakuhĩrĩirie thĩ nyũmũ.
And after the fourteen days of our roaming and tossing on the Adriatic sea, at midnight, the sailors conceived that they approached land.
28 Nao makĩoya kĩgeri kĩa ũriku wa maaĩ makĩona atĩ maaĩ maarĩ na ũriku wa buti igana rĩa mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ. Thuutha wa kahinda kanini magĩthima rĩngĩ makĩona atĩ maaĩ maarĩ na ũriku wa buti mĩrongo kenda.
And they cast the lead, and found twenty fathoms. And again they advanced a little, and they found fifteen fathoms.
29 Nĩ ũndũ wa gwĩtigĩra tũtikaagũthithio rwaro rwa ihiga, makĩrekia nanga inya kuuma mwena wa na thuutha wa marikabu, na makĩhooya gũkĩe.
And as we feared lest we should be caught in places where were rocks, they cast four anchors from the stern of the ship, and prayed for the morning.
30 Na rĩĩrĩa maageragia kũũra moime marikabu-inĩ, atwarithia a marikabu makĩharũrũkia gatarũ ga kũhonokia andũ iria-inĩ, metuĩte atĩ marenda kũharũrũkia nanga imwe kuuma mũthia wa na mbere wa marikabu.
And the sailors sought to flee out of the ship. And from it they lowered down the boat into the sea, under pretence that they were going in it to make fast the ship to the land.
31 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Paũlũ akĩĩra mũnene ũcio wa thigari igana rĩmwe hamwe na thigari atĩrĩ, “Andũ aya maga gũikara marikabu-inĩ, inyuĩ mũtingĩhonoka.”
And when Paul saw it, he said to the centurion and to the soldiers: Unless these remain in the ship, ye cannot be saved.
32 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio thigari igĩtinia mĩkanda ĩrĩa yanyiitĩte gatarũ ga kũhonokia andũ, makĩreka koore.
Then the soldiers cut the boat rope from the ship, and let the boat go adrift.
33 Gwakuhĩrĩria gũkĩa, Paũlũ akĩmathaitha othe marĩe irio, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Kwa ihinda rĩa mĩthenya ikũmi na ĩna mĩthiru, mũkoretwo mũikarĩte o ũguo mwĩimĩte irio, mũteekũrĩa kĩndũ.
And while it was not yet morning, Paul advised them all to take food, saying to them: In consequence of the peril, it is now the fourteenth day that ye have tasted nothing.
34 Rĩu ndamũthaitha mũrĩe irio. Nĩmũbatarĩte kũrĩa irio nĩguo imũige muoyo. Gũtirĩ rũcuĩrĩ rwa mũtwe wa mũndũ o na ũmwe wanyu rũkũũra.”
Therefore I entreat you, to take food for the sustenance of your life; for not a hair from the head of any of you, will perish.
35 Aarĩkia kuuga ũguo, akĩoya mũgate, agĩcookeria Ngai ngaatho mbere yao othe. Agĩcooka akĩwenyũranga, akĩambĩrĩria kũrĩa.
And having said these things, he took bread, and gave glory to God before them all; and he broke it, and began to eat.
36 Nao othe makĩigua momĩrĩria, makĩoya irio makĩrĩa.
And they were all consoled; and they took nourishment.
37 Ithuothe twarĩ andũ 276 arĩa twarĩ marikabu-inĩ.
And there were of us in the ship two hundred and seventy-six souls.
38 Rĩrĩa maarĩire makĩhũũna, maacookire magĩikia ngano iria-inĩ nĩgeetha marikabu ĩhũthe.
And when they were satisfied with food, they lightened the ship, and took the wheat and cast it into the sea.
39 Kwarooka gũkĩa-rĩ, atwarithia matiigana kũmenya bũrũri ũcio, no makĩona gĩcongoco kĩarĩ na mũthanga hũgũrũrũ-inĩ, magĩĩciiria magerie kũhatithia marikabu ho.
And when it was day, the sailors knew not what land it was: but they saw on the margin of the land an inlet of the sea; whither, if possible they intended to drive the ship.
40 Nao makĩrenga nanga, igĩtigwo iria-inĩ, na o hau makĩohora mĩkanda ĩrĩa yohete thukani. Magĩcooka makĩhaicia taama ũrĩa wĩkagĩrwo mbere ya marikabu nĩguo ũnyiite rũhuho, magĩthiĩ meerekeire hũgũrũrũ-inĩ.
And they cut away the anchors from the ship, and left them in the sea. And they loosened the bands of the rudder, and hoisted a small sail to the breeze, and made way towards the land.
41 No rĩrĩ, marikabu ĩkĩgũtha mũthanga na ĩkĩhata. Mũthia wa na mbere wayo ũkĩhata na ũkĩrũma biũ, naguo mũthia wa na thuutha ũkiunĩkanga nĩ ũndũ wa kũhũũrwo nĩ makũmbĩ ma maaĩ.
And the ship struck upon a shoal between two channels of the sea, and stuck fast upon it. And the forward part rested upon it, and was immovable; but the after part was shattered by the violence of the waves.
42 Thigari ikĩbanga ciũrage ohwo nĩgeetha gũtikagĩe o na ũmwe wao ũngĩthambĩra oore.
And the soldiers were disposed to slay the prisoners; lest they should resort to swimming, and escape from them.
43 No tondũ mũnene ũcio wa thigari igana rĩmwe nĩendaga kũhonokia muoyo wa Paũlũ, agĩcigiria ciĩke ũguo ciabangĩte. Agĩathana atĩ andũ arĩa mangĩahotire gũthambĩra mambe marũũge maaĩ-inĩ mathiĩ thĩ nyũmũ.
But the centurion kept them from it, because he was desirous to preserve Paul. And those who were able to swim, he commanded to swim off first, and pass to the land.
44 Nao andũ acio angĩ makinye kuo menyiitĩrĩire mbaũ kana icunjĩ cia marikabu. Ũguo nĩguo andũ othe maakinyire thĩ nyũmũ matarĩ na ũũru.
And the rest, he made to transport themselves on planks, and on other timbers of the ship. And so they all escaped safe to land.
