Oihana 27
1 A PAA iho la ka manao e holo makou i Italia, haawi ae la lakou ia Paulo, a me kekahi poe i paa pu, i kahi lunahaneri, o Iulio kona inoa, no ka papa koa o Auguseto.
When it was decided that we would sail for Italy, Paul and some other prisoners were handed over to a centurion named Julius, who belonged to the Imperial Regiment.
2 A ee makou i kekahi moku no Aderamuteno, a hemo aku la me ka manao e holo ma ke kapa o Asia; a o Arisetareko, no Teselonike i Makedonia, kekahi me makou.
We boarded an Adramyttian ship about to sail for ports along the coast of Asia, and we put out to sea. Aristarchus, a Macedonian from Thessalonica, was with us.
3 A ia la ae, pae makou i Sidona. Hana lokomaikai aku la o Iulio ia Paulo, ae aku la ia ia e hele i kona mau makamaka e hoomaha ia ia iho.
The next day we landed at Sidon, and Julius treated Paul with consideration, allowing him to visit his friends and receive their care.
4 A hemo aku la makou mai ia wahi aku, holo makou malalo o Kupero, no ka mea, pakuikui mai ka makani.
After putting out from there, we sailed to the lee of Cyprus because the winds were against us.
5 Holo ae la makou a hala ke kai o Kilikia, a me Pamepulia, a hiki makou ma Mura o Lukia.
And when we had sailed across the open sea off the coast of Cilicia and Pamphylia, we came to Myra in Lycia.
6 A malaila loaa i ka lunahaneri he moku no Alekanederia, e holo ana i Italia; hoee ae la oia ia makou iloko.
There the centurion found an Alexandrian ship sailing for Italy and put us on board.
7 Holo lohi aku la makou i na la he nui loa, a hiki apuepue makou i Kenido, no ka mea, aole i aeia ka makani ia makou, holo ae la makou malalo o Kerete, ma Salemone;
After sailing slowly for many days, we arrived off Cnidus. When the wind impeded us, we sailed to the lee of Crete, opposite Salmone.
8 A hala ia wahi me ka apuepne hiki aku la makou i kahi i kapaia o Naawamaikai, kahi i kokoke mai i ke kulanakauhale o Lasaia.
After we had moved along the coast with difficulty, we came to a place called Fair Havens, near the town of Lasea.
9 Ua loihi loa ka manawa i hala, a ua hiki no hoi ka wa pono ole ke holo, no ka mea, ua hala ka wa hookeai, alaila ao mai la o Paulo ia lakou,
By now much time had passed, and the voyage had already become dangerous because it was after the Fast. So Paul advised them,
10 I mai la, E na kanaka, ke ike nei au i keia holo ana, e pilikia ana, a me ka lilo nui, aole ka ukana a me ka moku wale no, aka, o ko kakon mau ola kekahi.
“Men, I can see that our voyage will be filled with disaster and great loss, not only to ship and cargo, but to our own lives as well.”
11 Manao iho la ka lunahaneri i ka ke kahu moku, a me ka mea nona ka moku, aole i na mea i oleloia mai e Paulo.
But contrary to Paul’s advice, the centurion was persuaded by the pilot and by the owner of the ship.
12 Aole hoi i pono loa kela awa i ka hooilo, no ia mea, hoike mai ka nui i ka manao e holo aku, ina paha lakou e hiki aku i Poinike i ka hooilo, he awa no ia ma Kerete e huli ana ma Liba, a me Koro.
Since the harbor was unsuitable to winter in, the majority decided to sail on, if somehow they could reach Phoenix to winter there. Phoenix was a harbor in Crete facing both southwest and northwest.
13 A aniani mai la ka makani, mai ke kukuluhema mai, manao iho la lakou, ua loaa ko lakou manao, hemo aku la a holo pili loko aku la i Kerete.
When a gentle south wind began to blow, they thought they had their opportunity. So they weighed anchor and sailed along, hugging the coast of Crete.
14 Aole i emo, pa mai la kekahi makani ino, he Eurokeludo ka inoa.
But it was not long before a cyclone called the Northeaster swept down across the island.
15 Punia iho la ka moku, aole hiki ke hooku i ka makani, hookuu ae la makou a holo.
Unable to head into the wind, the ship was caught up. So we gave way and let ourselves be driven along.
16 A holo ae la makou malalo o kekahi aina, ua kapaia o Kelaude, hiki apuepue ia makou ke paa iho i ka waapa,
Passing to the lee of a small island called Cauda, we barely managed to secure the lifeboat.
17 A hukiia ia iluna, hana iho la lakou i mea e kokua ai, hawele iho la lakou malalo o ka moku, a makau iho la o haule lakou ma ka Sureti, no ia mea, kuu iho la lakou i ka pea, a hooholoia pela.
After hoisting it up, the crew used ropes to undergird the ship. And fearing that they would run aground on the sandbars of Syrtis, they lowered the sea anchor and were driven along.
18 Kahulihuli loa makou i ka ino, nolaila, ia la ae, hoomama iho la lakou i ka moku.
We were tossed so violently that the next day the men began to jettison the cargo.
19 A i ke kolu o ka la, na ko makou lima no i hoolei aku i ka ukana pili i ka moku.
On the third day, they threw the ship’s tackle overboard with their own hands.
20 A hala ae la na la he nui, aole hoi i ikea mai ka la a me na hoku, aole hoi okana mai o ka ino i kau ia maluna o makou, alaila pau aku la ka manaolana e hoolaia'i makou.
When neither sun nor stars appeared for many days and the great storm continued to batter us, we abandoned all hope of being saved.
21 A loihi ka ai ole ana, alaila ku mai la o Paulo iwaenakonu o lakou, i mai la, E na kanaka, ina oukou i hoolohe mai i ka'u, aole hoi i hemo mai, mai Kerete mai, ina ua pono, alaila aole kakou i loaa i keia ino, a me keia poho.
After the men had gone a long time without food, Paul stood up among them and said, “Men, you should have followed my advice not to sail from Crete. Then you would have averted this disaster and loss.
22 Ano hoi, ke nonoi aku nei au ia oukou, e olioli oukou; no ka mea, aole e lilo ana kekahi ola o oukou, o ka moku wale no.
But now I urge you to keep up your courage, because you will not experience any loss of life, but only of the ship.
23 No ka mea, i ka po nei, ku mai la kekahi anela o ke Akua, nona no wan, a oia hoi ka'u e malama nei,
For just last night an angel of God, whose I am and whom I serve, stood beside me
24 I mai la ia, Mai makau oe, e Paulo; e pono ia oe ke ku aku imua i ke alo o Kaisara; aia hoi, ua haawi mai la ke Akua i ka poe a pau e holo pu ana me oe nau.
and said, ‘Do not be afraid, Paul; you must stand before Caesar. And look, God has granted you the lives of all who sail with you.’
25 Nolaila, e kanaka e, e olioli oukou; no ka mea, ke manaoio aku nei au i ke Akua, e hanaia mai, e like me ka mea i oleloia mai ai ia'u.
So take courage, men, for I believe God that it will happen just as He told me.
26 Aka hoi, e ili ana kakou ma kekahi mokupuni.
However, we must run aground on some island.”
27 A hiki i ka po umikumamaha, na hooholoholoia ae la makou ma Aderia, a i ke aumoe, manao iho la na luina e kokoke ana lakou i ka aina.
On the fourteenth night we were still being driven across the Adriatic Sea. About midnight the sailors sensed they were approaching land.
28 A hoailona iho la, a he iwakalua anana i loaa ia lakou; a panee iki aku, hoailona hon, a loaa he umikumamalima anana.
They took soundings and found that the water was twenty fathoms deep. Going a little farther, they took another set of soundings that read fifteen fathoms.
29 Makau ae la o ili makou ma kahi pohaku, hoolei iho la lakou i na heleuma eha ma ka hope o ka moku, a iini iho la i ke ao ana ae.
Fearing that we would run aground on the rocks, they dropped four anchors from the stern and prayed for daybreak.
30 A imi na luina e mahuka aku, mai ka moku aku, ua kuu iho la i ka waapa ilalo i ke kai, me he mea la e lawe aku ana i mau heleuma, ma ka ihu;
Meanwhile, the sailors attempted to escape from the ship. Pretending to lower anchors from the bow, they let the lifeboat down into the sea.
31 Olelo ae la o Paulo i ka lunahaneri, a me ka poe koa, Ina aole lakou nei e noho i ka moku, aole loa e hiki ia oukou ke hoolaia.
But Paul said to the centurion and the soldiers, “Unless these men remain with the ship, you cannot be saved.”
32 Alaila oki ae la ka poe koa i na kaula o ka waapa, a kuu ia ia e haule iho la.
So the soldiers cut the ropes to the lifeboat and set it adrift.
33 A kokoke ae la i ke ao, koi ae la o Paulo ia lakou a pau, e ai i ka ai, i ae la, Eia ka la umikumamaha o ko oukou hookeai ana, ua noho oukou me ka lalau ole i ka ai.
Right up to daybreak, Paul kept urging them all to eat: “Today is your fourteenth day in constant suspense, without taking any food.
34 No ia mea, ke nonoi aku nei au ia oukou, e lalau i ka ai; no ka mea, o ko oukou mea ola ia. No ka mea, aole e haule kekahi lauo, ho o ko oukou mau poo.
So for your own preservation, I urge you to eat something, because not a single hair of your head will be lost.”
35 A i olelo ana pela, lalau iho la ia i ka berena, hoomaikai aku la i ke Akua imua o lakou a pau; a wawahi ae la, ai iho la.
After he had said this, Paul took bread and gave thanks to God in front of them all. Then he broke it and began to eat.
36 Alaila, olioli iho la lakou a pau, a o lakou kekahi i lalau i ka ai.
They were all encouraged and took some food themselves.
37 A o na uhane a pau, maluna o ka moku, elua o makou haneri a me kanahikukumamaono kanaka.
In all, there were 276 of us on board.
38 A maona ae la lakou i ka ai, hoomama iho la lakou i ka moku, a hoolei iho la i ka hua palaoa iloko o ke kai.
After the men had eaten their fill, they lightened the ship by throwing the grain into the sea.
39 A ao ae la, aole lakou i ike ia aina; kaunana nae lakou i kekahi kaikuono me ke kahakai. Mauao iho la lakou, ina e hiki, e hookomo i ka moku ilaila.
When daylight came, they did not recognize the land, but they sighted a bay with a sandy beach, where they decided to run the ship aground if they could.
40 Ooki iho la lakou i na heleuma, a waiho iho la i ke kai, a wehe iho la i na kaula o ka hoeuli, a huki i ka pea nui i ka makani, a holo iuka.
Cutting away the anchors, they left them in the sea as they loosened the ropes that held the rudders. Then they hoisted the foresail to the wind and made for the beach.
41 Ika iho la lakou ilalo i kahi wili au, ili iho la ka moku, paa iho la ka ihu, aole loa i hemo, nahaha iho la ka hope i ka ikaika o na ale.
But the vessel struck a sandbar and ran aground. The bow stuck fast and would not move, and the stern was being broken up by the pounding of the waves.
42 Manao iho la ka poe koa e pepehi i ka poe paahao, o au aku kekahi o lakou a pakele.
The soldiers planned to kill the prisoners so none of them could swim to freedom.
43 Makemake iho la ka lunahaneri e hoola ia Paulo, hoole aku la i ko lakou manao; kena aku la i ka poe hiki ke au, o lakou ke lele mua a hiki iuka.
But the centurion, wanting to spare Paul’s life, thwarted their plan. He commanded those who could swim to jump overboard first and get to land.
44 A o ke koena, ma na papa kahi, a ma na mea o ka moku kahi; a pela lakou a pau i pakele ai a hiki i ka aina.
The rest were to follow on planks and various parts of the ship. In this way everyone was brought safely to land.
