Asan'ny Apostoly 27
1 Ary rehefa voadidy hiondrana an-tsambo hiala hankany Italia izahay, Paoly sy ny mpifatotra sasany dia natolotra tamin’ ny kapiteny atao hoe Jolio, tamin’ ny antokon’ i Aogosto.
Now when it was concluded, that we should sayle into Italie, they deliuered both Paul, and certaine other prisoners vnto a Centurion named Iulius, of the band of Augustus.
2 Ary rehefa nirotsaka an-tsambo avy any Adramytena izay efa handeha hitety ny sisin-tanin’ i Asia izahay, dia lasa nandeha; ary niaraka taminay Aristarko Makedoniana avy any Tesalonika.
And we entred into a ship of Adramyttium purposing to saile by the coastes of Asia, and launched foorth, and had Aristarchus of Macedonia, a Thessalonian, with vs.
3 Ary nony ampitso dia tonga tany Sidona izahay. Ary tsara ny nitondran’ i Jolio an’ i Paoly, fa navelany hankany amin’ ny sakaizany izay hiahy azy izy.
And the next day we arriued at Sidon: and Iulius courteously entreated Paul, and gaue him libertie to go vnto his friends, that they might refresh him.
4 Ary nony niala teo izahay, dia nanara-morona an’ i Kyprosy nihazo ny ilany takon-drivotra, satria nanohitra ny rivotra.
And from thence we launched, and sayled hard by Cyprus, because ye windes were contrarie.
5 Ary rehefa namaky ny ranomasina tany Kilikia sy Pamfilia izahay, dia tonga tany Myra any Lykia.
Then sayled we ouer the sea by Cilicia, and Pamphilia, and came to Myra, a citie in Lycia.
6 Ary tao no nahitan’ ny kapiteny sambon’ Aleksandria hankany Italia, dia nasainy niondrana teo aminy izahay.
And there the Centurion found a ship of Alexandria, sayling into Italie, and put vs therein.
7 Ary rehefa nandeha niadana andro maromaro izahay ka saiky tsy tonga tandrifin’ i Kinido, satria nisakana anay ny rivotra, dia takon-drivotra tandrifin’ i Salmona izahay;
And when we had sayled slowly many dayes, and scarce were come against Gnidum, because the winde suffered vs not, we sailed hard by Candie, neere to Salmone,
8 ary nony sahirana nanara-morona izahay, dia tonga teo amin’ ny tany anankiray atao hoe Tsara-fitodian-tsambo; akaikin’ izany ny tanàna Lasea.
And with much adoe sayled beyond it, and came vnto a certaine place called the Faire hauens, neere vnto the which was the citie Lasea.
9 Ary rehefa lany ny andro maro, sady sarotra ny fandehanan-tsambo tamin’ izany, satria efa afaka ny Andro Fifadiana, dia nananatra azy Paoly
So when much time was spent, and sayling was now ieopardous, because also the Fast was nowe passed, Paul exhorted them,
10 ka nanao taminy hoe: Ry tompokolahy ô, hitako fa izao fandehanana izao dia hisy fahasimbana sy fatiantoka be ihany, ka tsy amin’ ny entana sy ny sambo ihany, fa ny aintsika koa aza.
And sayde vnto them, Syrs, I see that this voiage will be with hurt and much damage, not of the lading and ship onely, but also of our liues.
11 Kanefa ny kapiteny nino ny mpitondra sy ny tompon-tsambo, fa tsy ny teny nolazain’ i Paoly.
Neuertheles the Centurion beleeued rather the gouernour and the master of the ship, then those things which were spoken of Paul.
12 Ary satria ny fitodian-tsambo teo dia tsy tsara hitoerana amin’ ny ririnina, dia nataon’ ny maro fa tsara raha miala, fandrao mba ho tonga any Foiniksa ahay handany ny ririnina any; fitodian-tsambo any Kreta izany ka manatrika mianatsimo-andrefana sy mianavaratra-andrefana.
And because the hauen was not commodious to winter in, many tooke counsell to depart thence, if by any meanes they might attaine to Phenice, there to winter, which is an hauen of Candie, and lyeth toward the Southwest and by West, and Northwest and by West.
13 Ary raha nitsoka malemy ny rivotra avy any atsimo, ka nataony fa efa nahazo izay niriny izy, dia niala teo izy ka nandalo akaikikaikin’ i Kreta.
And when the Southerne winde blew softly, they supposing to atteine their purpose, loosed neerer, and sailed by Candie.
14 Ary tsy ela rehefa afaka izany, dia nifofofofo nidina avy teo ny tafio-drivotra mahery atao hoe Eorakylona.
But anon after, there arose by it a stormy winde called Euroclydon.
15 Ary raha nopaohin’ ny rivotra ny sambo ka tsy nahatoha azy, dia navelanay haveziveziny izy.
And when the ship was caught, and could not resist the winde, we let her goe, and were caried away.
16 Ary raha nandeha faingana nanara-morona ny nosy atao hoe Kaoda nihazo ny ilany takon-drivotra izahay, dia saiky tsy nahazo ny salopy;
And we ran vnder a litle Yle named Clauda, and had much a doe to get the boat.
17 ary rehefa nakarina izany, dia novahorany manodidina ny sambo; ary natahotra izy, fandrao hihatra any amin’ ilay fasika mandrevo, dia nampidina ny lay, ka navelany handeha ho azy ny sambo.
Which they tooke vp and vsed all helpe, vndergirding the ship, fearing least they should haue fallen into Syrtes, and they strake saile, and so were caried.
18 Ary raha nasian’ ny rivotra mafy izahay, dia nanariany ny entana nony ampitso;
The next day when we were tossed with an exceeding tempest, they lightened the ship.
19 ary nony ampitso’ io indray dia narian’ ny tànany ihany ny fanaka teo amin’ ny sambo;
And the third day we cast out with our owne hands the tackling of the ship.
20 fa rehefa tsy hita ny masoandro na ny kintana hatramin’ ny andro maro, ary tsy kely ny rivotra izay namely, dia tsy nanantena ho voavonjy intsony izahay.
And when neither sunne nor starres in many dayes appeared, and no small tempest lay vpon vs, all hope that we should be saued, was then taken away.
21 Ary rehefa tsy nihinan-kanina ela izy ireo, Paoly dia nitsangana teo afovoany ka nanao hoe: Ry tompokolahy ô, tsara raha ho nihaino ahy ianareo ka tsy niala tany Kreta, mba tsy ho nahitana izao fahasimbana sy fatiantoka izao.
But after long abstinece, Paul stood forth in the mids of them, and said, Syrs, ye should haue hearkened to me, and not haue loosed from Candie: so should ye haue gained this hurt and losse.
22 Ary ankehitriny mananatra anareo aho mba hatoky; fa tsy hisy ho faty ianareo, fa ny sambo ihany no ho very.
But now I exhort you to be of good courage: for there shalbe no losse of any mans life among you, saue of the ship onely.
23 Fa nisy anjelin’ Andriamanitra, Izay Tompoko sady tompoiko, nitsangana teo anilako halina
For there stood by me this night the Angel of God, whose I am, and whome I serue,
24 ka nanao hoe: Aza matahotra, ry Paoly; fa tsy maintsy hitsangana eo anatrehan’ i Kaisara ianao; ary, indro, efa nomen’ Andriamanitra anao ny olona rehetra izay miaraka aminao.
Saying, Feare not, Paul: for thou must be brought before Cesar: and lo, God hath giuen vnto thee freely all that sayle with thee.
25 Koa matokia, ry tompokolahy ô, fa mino an’ Andriamanitra aho fa ho tonga araka ny voalazany tamiko izany.
Wherefore, sirs, be of good courage: for I beleeue God, that it shall be so as it hath bene tolde me.
26 Nefa tsy maintsy fefika ihany eo amin’ ny nosy anankiray isika.
Howbeit, we must be cast into a certaine Iland.
27 Ary tamin’ ny alina fahefatra ambin’ ny folo, raha navezimbezina tany Adria izahay, nony namatonalina dia nataon’ ny matilo fa efa manakaiky tany izy;
And when ye fourteenth night was come, as we were caried to and from in the Adriaticall sea about midnight, the shipmen deemed that some countrey approched vnto them,
28 dia nanaka-drano izy ka hitany fa faharoa-polo refy; ary nony nandrosoroso kokoa izy, dia nanaka-drano indray ka hitany fa fahadimy ambin’ ny folo refy.
And sounded, and found it twentie fathoms: and when they had gone a litle further, they sounded againe, and found fifteene fathoms.
29 Dia natahotra izahay, fandrao hidona amin’ ny harambato, ka dia nandatsaka vatofantsika efatra teo am-bodisambo ary naniry ny andro ho maraina.
Then fearing least they should haue fallen into some rough places, they cast foure ancres out of the sterne, and wished that the day were come.
30 Fa raha nitady handositra hiala tamin’ ny sambo ny matilo ka efa nampidina ny salopy teo amin’ ny ranomasina izy, nody handatsaka vatofantsika eo an-doha-sambo,
Nowe as the mariners were about to flee out of the ship, and had let downe the boat into the sea vnder a colour as though they would haue cast ankers out of the foreship,
31 dia hoy Paoly tamin’ ny kapiteny sy ny miaramila: Raha tsy mitoetra eto an-tsambo ireo, dia tsy azo vonjena ianareo.
Paul sayde vnto the Centurion and the souldiers, Except these abide in the ship, ye can not be safe.
32 Dia notapahin’ ny miaramila ny mahazaka rehetra tamin’ ny salopy, ka navelany ho latsaka.
Then the souldiers cut off the ropes of the boat, and let it fall away.
33 Ary raha mbola tsy nazava ny andro, dia niangavy tamin’ ny olona rehetra Paoly mba hihinan-kanina ka nanao hoe: Anio no fahefatra ambin’ ny folo andro niandrasanareo, sady nahari-noana ianareo ka tsy nihinana.
And when it began to be day, Paul exhorted them all to take meate, saying, This is the fourteenth day that ye haue taried, and continued fasting, receiuing nothing:
34 Koa mananatra anareo aho hihinan-kanina, fa izany no isan’ ny hamonjena anareo; ary tsy hisy ho very aminareo rehetra na dia singam-bolo iray akory aza.
Wherefore I exhort you to take meate: for this is for your safegarde: for there shall not an heare fall from the head of any of you.
35 Ary rehefa nilaza izany izy sady nandray mofo, dia nisaotra an’ Andriamanitra teo anatrehan’ ny olona rehetra; ary rehefa novakiny, dia nihinana izy.
And when he had thus spoken, hee tooke bread and gaue thankes to God, in presence of them all, and brake it, and began to eate.
36 Dia nahazo toky izy rehetra ka nihinana koa.
Then were they all of good courage, and they also tooke meate.
37 Ary izahay rehetra teo anaty sambo dia olona enina amby fito-polo amby roan-jato.
Nowe we were in the ship in all two hundreth three score and sixteene soules.
38 Ary rehefa voky izy, dia nanariany ho any anaty ranomasina ny hanina mba hanamaivana ny sambo.
And whe they had eaten ynough, they lightened the ship, and cast out the wheat into the sea.
39 Ary rehefa nazava ny andro, dia tsy nahalala ny tany izy, fa nahita helodrano anankiray tsara morona, ka teo no nokasainy hampidonana ny sambo, raha azony atao.
And when it was day, they knewe not the countrey, but they spied a certaine creeke with a banke, into the which they were minded (if it were possible) to thrust in the ship.
40 Ary rehefa nesoriny avokoa ny vatofantsika, dia navelany ho any an-dranomasina, ary novahany koa ny kofehin’ ny familian-tsambo dia namelatra ny lay anoloana izy ho azon’ ny rivotra ka nanatona ny tany.
So when they had taken vp the ankers, they committed the ship vnto the sea, and loosed the rudder bonds, and hoised vp the maine saile to the winde, and drewe to the shore.
41 Ary raha tonga tamin’ izay nisy fihaonan-dranomasina izy, dia navelany hidona tamin’ ny tany ny sambo; ary ny loha-sambo nihizina ka nitoetra tsy nihetsika, fa ny vodi-sambo kosa dia vakivaky azon’ ny herin’ ny onja.
And when they fell into a place, where two seas met, they thrust in the ship: and the forepart stucke fast, and could not be moued, but the hinderpart was broken with the violence of the waues.
42 Ary ny miaramila nanao tetika hamono ny mpifatotra, fandrao hisy hilomano ireo ka ho afaka.
Then the souldiers counsell was to kill the prisoners, least any of them, when he had swomme out, should flee away.
43 Fa ny kapiteny ta-hamonjy an’ i Paoly, dia nisakana azy tsy hanao izay nokasainy; fa izay nahay nilomano no nasainy hirotsaka aloha ka hilomano ho any amin’ ny tany,
But the Centurion willing to saue Paul, stayed them from this counsell, and commanded that they that coulde swimme, shoulde cast them selues first into the sea, and goe out to land:
44 ary ny sisa dia samy hanao izay hahafaka azy, na amin’ ny hazo fisaka, na amin’ ny zavatra avy amin’ ny sambo. Dia tonga soa aman-tsara teny an-tanety avokoa izy rehetra.
And the other, some on boardes, and some on certaine pieces of the ship: and so it came to passe that they came all safe to land.
