Jesu Tondiba Tuona 27
1 Ban den jagi ki bili ke ti baa kua ku ñinbiagu nni ki gedi Itali diema nni, bi den teni a minteela yudaano ban yi yua Juliyusa n yaa gu Polo leni kadibitoana.
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 Ti den kua ya ñinbiagu n ñani Adamita dogu nni ki baa gedi ya dogu n yi Asi nuganu po. Ti den fii ki caa, ke Akilitaka, Maseduana diema Tesalonika dogu yua yegi leni ti.
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 Lan den yendi, ti den pundi Sidoni ki sedi. Juliyusa den kubi Polo leni mi buama, ki puni o ke o ñani ku ñinbiagu nni, ki gedi ki fuondi o dalinba ki baa mi todima bikani.
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 Ti den fii lankani ki suagi liiga ki balini Sipila kpendegili kelima u faalu den togidi ti.
And on sailing from there, because the winds were against us, we sailed around to Cyprus.
5 Ti den suagi liiga ki poandi mi ñinciama, ki balini Silisi leni Panfili diema, ki sedi Mila dogu nni.
And we passed over the sea of Cilicia and Pamphylia, and arrived at Myra, a city of Lycia.
6 Lankani aminteela yudaano den laa ñinbiatoagu, yaagu n ñani Alisandili dogu nni ki baa gedi Itali, ki kuani ti ku niinni.
And there the centurion found a ship of Alexandria, which was going to Italy; and he set us on board of it.
7 Ti den suagi ki cuoni dindini danaba ki nagini Sinida dogu leni fala. U faalu n go den togidi ti ke tii den fidi ki suagi liiga, ti den lebidi ki balini Kileta kpendegili ki teli Salimone po.
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 Ti den suagi liiga leni fala hali ki ban balini ki pundi ya dogu n yi ti ñinbiadi sedikaanhamu yu n ku leni Lase dogu ki sedi.
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 Ti cenli den waagi hali ke li den ban pundi yaa yogunu ke ku ñinbiagu cenli biagidi kelima mi ñoalolima yogunu den pendi. Lane ke Polo den tuodi ki waani ba.
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 Ki yedi: N sua ke ti ya suagi liiga ku ñinbiagu cenli baa biagi. Laa tie ku ñinbiagu leni kun tugi yaa tuga bebe ka baa bodi, ti miana moko baa ti taani lienni.
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 Ama a minteela yudaano den dugi ku ñinbiagu gobidikoa leni ku daano po ki cie Polo maama.
But the centurion listened to the pilot, and to the owner of the ship, more than to the words of Paul.
12 Kelima ban den ye yaa ñinbiadi sedikaanu yeni naa den dagidi bipo ban ya ye likani hali ku fawaagu. Lane ti siiga yaaba, yaaba n den yaba ki cie den yedi ke li baa hani tin go fiini a cabiciama ki ña likani ki moandi ki la ti yaa baa fidi ki suagi ki pundi Fenikisi dogu ki sedi lankani hali ku fawaagu yogunu n pendi. Fenikisi yeni den tie Kileta ñinbiadi sedikaanu ki tiegi jienu ki goa nintuali po, leni ganu ya nintuali po.
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 Yaa faalu n ñani ganu den figi waamu waamu ke bi tama ke bi baa fidi ki tieni nani ban den jagi maama. Bi den fiini ku ñinbiagu kubikpiagili yaali n sieni gu ki suagi ki balini Kileta kaa foagi leni li jaali.
And when the south wind breezed up, and they hoped to arrive as they desired, we began to sail around Crete.
14 Ama la den yen waamu puoli faaligu den ñani li kpendegili po ki figi boncianla.
And shortly after, a tempest of wind arose upon us, called Typhonic Euroclydon.
15 Ku faaligu yeni den taa ku ñinbiagu ke ku naa go fidi ki baa togidi gu. Lane ti den cedi ke ku faaligu taa gu ki gedini kun bua naani.
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 Ti den balini li kpendegili ke li wa ki yi Kiloda ganu po. Nani lin den sieni tipo ku faaligu waamu yeni, ti den fidi ki cuo ki ñinbiabiga, ama leni fala.
And when we had passed a certain island, called Cyra, we could hardly retain the boat.
17 Bi den yugidi ga ki kuani ga ki ñinbiabiga nni. Li yaa puoli bi den soali i baabi ku ñinbiagu tiipo ki loli bonhanla. Bi den jie ke u faalu baa tudi ki gedini ti Libi boanjaali ya tanbitinga po. Lane, bi den jiini ku dagbeegu, ki cedi ke u faalu tudi ki gedini ti.
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 Kelima u faalu n go den waani ti fala boncianla maama po, lan den yendi bi den cili ki luni a tugitiama mi ñima nni.
And as the storm raged violently upon us, we the next day threw goods into the sea.
19 Li dantaali daali bani biba den taa ku ñinbiaciangu tuonsoantiadi ki luni mi ñima nni.
And on the third day, with our own hands, we threw away the tackling of the ship.
20 Dana boncianla den pendi ke ki yenga leni o hmaalo naa den ñani. Ku faaligu den figi ki bia hali boncianla ke tii go den daani ke ti baa ye leni miali.
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 Li den waagi danaba ke niloba kuli ki den dini. Lani Polo den sedi bi siiga ki yedi ba: Li den baa hani yi yaa den cengi n maama kaa den fii Kileta. Ti kan bi lu ti tuga ki go la yaa fala n tie na.
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 Moala n waani yi ke yin paagi mani yi pala, kelima yi siiga oba kuli kan bodi kali ku ñinbiagu bebe.
And now, I counsel you to be without anxiety; for not a soul of you will be lost, but only the ship.
23 Kelima U Tienu yua n die nni ke n tuuni opo yeni yaa maleki doagidi o yuli npo ku naa ñiagu.
For there appeared to me this night, the angel of that God whose I am, and whom I serve;
24 Ki yedi nni: Polo han da jie liba. Li tie tiladi han pundi ki sedi Sesa nintuali. U Tienu go hanbi opo ki puni a ke yaaba n ye leni a ku ñinbiagu na niinni kuli siiga, baa yendo kan bodi.
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 Lanwani yin paagi mani yi pala, kelima n pia li dandanli U Tienu po ke li baa tua nani wan yedi nni maama.
Therefore, men, be ye courageous; for I confide in God, that it will be as was told to me.
26 De tiladi ti baa tuoni kpendegiliba jaali kani.
Yet we are to be cast upon a certain island.
27 Li piiga n dannaali daali ñiagu, u faalu den pengipengi ti ki caani ganu leni jienu Adiliatika yaa ñincianma po. Ku yasiigu ku ñinbiagu tuonsoanba den tama ke ti nagini tingaba.
And after the fourteen days of our roaming and tossing on the Adriatic sea, at midnight, the sailors conceived that they approached land.
28 Bi den luni mi ñincianma bonbiigikaala, ki sua ke mi ñima ñua ki pundi nukpanduna piiyia. Lan pendi waamu, bi gi den biigi ki sua ke mi ñua ki pundi piiluoba n nukpanduna muu.
And they cast the lead, and found twenty fathoms. And again they advanced a little, and they found fifteen fathoms.
29 Bi den jie ke ku ñinbiaciagu baa kpaabi ya tanciama n ye likani mi ñima nni, ke bi taa ya kubikpiaginaada n ye ku juodima ke kun da go cuoni. Lani bi den miadi lan fa, ki gu leni mi yanjegibima
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 Ku ñinbiagu tuonsoanba den tieni nani bi baa jiini yaa kubikpiaga n ye ku yuli po yeni, ama bi go den jiini ki ñinbiabiga mi ñima nni ki baa kua ki niinni ki ha ku ñinbiaciangu ki sani ki ciadi.
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 Polo den yedi a minteela yudaano leni a minteela kuli: Bi jaba yeni yaa sedi ku ñinbiagu nni, yi kan ciadi.
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 Lanwani a minteela den jia ya baabi n doali ki ñinbiabiga leni ku ñinbiaciangu, ki cedi ke ki baa, ke mi ñima taa ga ki gedini.
Then the soldiers cut the boat rope from the ship, and let the boat go adrift.
33 Lan den bua ki fa Polo den mia bikuli ban je waamu, ki yedi ba: Dinla n tie piiga n dana naa ke yi ji leni fala ki naa dini jiemaba kuli.
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 N mia yi yin je mani, lan baa todi yi yin ciadi. Yi siiga baa niyendo yuyengu kan bodi.
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 Wan den yeni, o den taa dupen ki tuondi U Tienu bikuli nintuali ki cabidi ki hmani.
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 Lane bikuli den baa li papaali ki dini.
And they were all consoled; and they took nourishment.
37 Tinba yaaba n den ye ku ñinbiagu yeni niinni kuli den pundi kobiga n piilele n niba luoba.
And there were of us in the ship two hundred and seventy-six souls.
38 Ban den dini ki dagidi, bi den luni ban tugi ya halikama mi ñima nni ke ku ñinbiagu yuagi.
And when they were satisfied with food, they lightened the ship, and took the wheat and cast it into the sea.
39 Lan den fa, baa den bandi ban baali yaa tinga, ama bi den laa ku kpenkadigu ke ku jaali tie tanbitinga. Bi den jagi ke li ya baa tuo ban nagini ku ñinbiagu ki sieni gu lankani.
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 Bi den jia yaa baabi n kubi a kubikpiaga kuli ki ha ha mi ñima nni, ki go lodi yaa baabi n luo ku ñinbiagu bonpegidikaala. Lani bi den yugidi ya cabicianli n ye ku ñinbiagu yuli kani ke u faalu tudi ku ñinbiagu ke ku teli li jaali po.
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 Ban den pundi ya tanbijuali n ye m ñima nni, ku ñinbiagu den kpaabi li ki sedi. Ku ñoabu den feli mi tanbiima yeni niinni jinjini, a ñinguona den poa ku puoli po leni u paalu hali ki teni ke ku kuakua bonjenajena.
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 A minteela den jagi ke bi baa kpa a kadibila, kelima baa den bua bi siiga baa yendo n kua mi ñima nni ki dugi ki ciadi.
And the soldiers were disposed to slay the prisoners; lest they should resort to swimming, and escape from them.
43 Ama bi yudaano yua n den bua ki ga Polo miali, den yie bipo ke ban da tieni yeni. O go den yedi ke yaaba n bani li ñindugili n kpa yugi ki baa mi ñima nni ki dugi ki pundi li jaali.
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 O go den yedi yaaba n sieni ma, bi tianba n cuo ti dapagidi, bi tianba mo n cuo ku ñinbiagu n mudi ki ha yaa dajena, ki hoadi ba. Bi den tieni yeni ke bikuli den pundi li jaali po leni laafia.
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.
