Asan'ny Apostoly 27
1 Ie linily te hiondrañe an-dakañe mb’e Italia mb’eo, le nasese ami’ ty mpifehe zato atao Jolio, firimboña’ Aogosto t’i Paoly naho ty mpirohy ila’e.
And when it was determined that we should sail into Italy, they delivered Paul and certain other prisoners unto [one] named Julius, a centurion of Augustus’ band.
2 Nijon-daka’ i Adramitiome zahay, ie homb’ an-tane añolo’ i Asia añe, le nionjoñe mb’eo rekets’ i Aristarko, nte Makedonia hirik’e Tesalonika.
And entering into a ship of Adramyttium, we launched, meaning to sail by the coasts of Asia; [one] Aristarchus, a Macedonian of Thessalonica, being with us.
3 Ie nidosy e Sidona amy loak’ àndroy, le nitretreze’ i Jolio t’i Paoly vaho nenga’e homb’ amo rañe’eo mb’eo hatraheñe.
And the next [day] we touched at Sidon. And Julius courteously entreated Paul, and gave [him] liberty to go unto his friends to refresh himself.
4 Ie nijon-dakañe boak’ ao le nanehake mb’ atimo’ i Kiprosy amy te niatre tioke.
And when we had launched from thence, we sailed under Cyprus, because the winds were contrary.
5 Le nitsake i riakey nañolotse i Kilkia naho i Pamfilia vaho nipok’e Maira-Likia ao.
And when we had sailed over the sea of Cilicia and Pamphylia, we came to Myra, [a city] of Lycia.
6 Teo ty nanjoa’ i mpifehe zatoy ty laka’ i Aleksandria hiondrañe mb’e Italia añe, vaho nampijoñe’e ama’e zahay.
And there the centurion found a ship of Alexandria sailing into Italy; and he put us therein.
7 Ie nizenjèñe ey avao andro maro le tsy nimora ty niharinea’ay i Kinido fa tsy nimete i tiokey, le niary ambane’ i Kreta tandrife i Salmona,
And when we had sailed slowly many days, and scarce were come over against Cnidus, the wind not suffering us, we sailed under Crete, over against Salmone;
8 naho nifanehake mafe nañolotse vaho nipok’ an-toetse atao Fipaliran-tsoa, marine’ ty rova atao Lasea.
And, hardly passing it, came unto a place which is called The fair havens; nigh whereunto was the city [of] Lasea.
9 Ie tambatse eo andro maro, mbore niharaty ty fijoñañe fa añe i Fililirañey, le hoe ty hatahata’ i Paoly:
Now when much time was spent, and when sailing was now dangerous, because the fast was now already past, Paul admonished [them],
10 O ‘ndatireo, apotako te ho liàm-baràta an-joy naho fianto itoy, tsy o kilankañeo naho i lakañey avao, fa o fiain-tikañeo.
And said unto them, Sirs, I perceive that this voyage will be with hurt and much damage, not only of the lading and ship, but also of our lives.
11 Fe niantoke i kapiteniy mandikoatse ty saontsi’ i Paoly i mpifehe zatoy naho i tompo’ i lakañeiy.
Nevertheless the centurion believed the master and the owner of the ship, more than those things which were spoken by Paul.
12 Aa kanao tsy soa fitofàñe ami’ty asotry i fipalirañey, le nilahatse hanonjohy i liay i màroy, hera mete ho takareñe ty Foiniksa, fipalira’ i Kreta, hiasotry añe, ie ankalo’ o tiok’ atimo-ahandrefa naho avarats’ ahandrefa.
And because the haven was not commodious to winter in, the more part advised to depart thence also, if by any means they might attain to Phenice, [and there] to winter; [which is] an haven of Crete, and lieth toward the south west and north west.
13 Ie nitiotioke boak’ atimo, natao’ iareo t’ie i tamañey, le naonjoñe i vato-fatsikey, vaho nañolotse marine’ i Kreta.
And when the south wind blew softly, supposing that they had obtained [their] purpose, loosing [thence], they sailed close by Crete.
14 Tsy tampetampetse izay, kinabokabo’ ty tio bey nizotso boak’ amy tokonosey, ty rivo-doza atao faok’ atiñana,
But not long after there arose against it a tempestuous wind, called Euroclydon.
15 le tsinepa’e i lakañey, ie tsy nahasoroke i tiokey fa nadoñe haronje’e avao.
And when the ship was caught, and could not bear up into the wind, we let [her] drive.
16 Ie nioza añ’ alo’ ty tokonose atao Klaoda, le nifanehafe’ay ty hitambozòtse i lakan-dozay.
And running under a certain island which is called Clauda, we had much work to come by the boat:
17 Aa ie tafa-onjoñe, le vinandibanditse taly i lakam-beiy hamihiñe aze, amy te nihakahakaeñe ke hivariñe mb’ am-pasen-kevo ao, naho nazotso o laio vaho napoke hisiotsiotse mb’eo.
Which when they had taken up, they used helps, undergirding the ship; and, fearing lest they should fall into the quicksands, strake sail, and so were driven.
18 Ie loho navoamboa’ i faokey te loak’andro, le namototse nañary kilankañe iereo.
And we being exceedingly tossed with a tempest, the next [day] they lightened the ship;
19 Amy andro fahateloy ka navokovoko’ iereo am-pitàñe ty harao’ i lakañey.
And the third [day] we cast out with our own hands the tackling of the ship.
20 Ie andro maro tsy niboak’ i àndroy ndra o vasiañeo, naho tsy atao tio-kede ty nikobokoboke, le ndra loli’e ty fisalala’ay te ho rombake.
And when neither sun nor stars in many days appeared, and no small tempest lay on [us], all hope that we should be saved was then taken away.
21 Ie songa nifeake tsy aman-kane, le niongak’ añivo’ iereo t’i Paoly nanao ty hoe: Ry ondaty reo, ho nisoa naho nihaoñe’ areo i tarokoy, te tsy ho vinotsotse ty Kreta, vaho tsy ho nizo ty fijoy naho fianto toy.
But after long abstinence Paul stood forth in the midst of them, and said, Sirs, ye should have hearkened unto me, and not have loosed from Crete, and to have gained this harm and loss.
22 F’ie henaneo, osiheko hirearea amy te tsy ama’ areo ty ho motso fiaiñe, fa ty lakañe toy avao.
And now I exhort you to be of good cheer: for there shall be no loss of [any man’s] life among you, but of the ship.
23 Toe nijohañe añilako eo aniankale i anjelin’ Añahare mpametrek’ ahy naho itoroñakoy,
For there stood by me this night the angel of God, whose I am, and whom I serve,
24 nanao ty hoe: Ko hembañe Paoly, amy te tsi-mahay tsy hatrefe’o t’i Kaisara, vaho ingo, tinolon’ Añahare azo o mindre lia ama’o iabio.
Saying, Fear not, Paul; thou must be brought before Cæsar: and, lo, God hath given thee all them that sail with thee.
25 Aa le manintsiña, ry ondatio, fa atokisako t’i Andrianañahare te ho zoeñe do’e amy tsinara amakoy.
Wherefore, sirs, be of good cheer: for I believe God, that it shall be even as it was told me.
26 Ie amy zao, tsi-mete tsy hitoañe an-tokonose tika.
Howbeit we must be cast upon a certain island.
27 Aa ie amy haleñe fahafolo-efats’ ambiy, le nasiotsiotse an-driak’ Adria ey avao, le amy antetsaleñey, natao’ o mpiandakañeo t’ie nañarine tane.
But when the fourteenth night was come, as we were driven up and down in Adria, about midnight the shipmen deemed that they drew near to some country;
28 Nitsoke iereo, le nanjo roapolo tratra; niveve kedekedeke le nitsoke indraike, nanjo folo lim’ amby tratra.
And sounded, and found [it] twenty fathoms: and when they had gone a little further, they sounded again, and found [it] fifteen fathoms.
29 Aa ie nihembañe te hidasiñe am-bato, le nanjotso vato-fatsike efatse amboho’ i lakañey, vaho nisalala ty manjirik’ andro.
Then fearing lest we should have fallen upon rocks, they cast four anchors out of the stern, and wished for the day.
30 Ie nimane hipotitsike amy lakañey o mpiandriakeo, naho fa nazotso’ iareo an-driak’ ao i ana-dakañey vaho nanao sare hampijoñe vato-fatsike antondoha’e ao,
And as the shipmen were about to flee out of the ship, when they had let down the boat into the sea, under colour as though they would have cast anchors out of the foreship,
31 le hoe t’i Paoly amy mpifehe zatoy naho amo lahin-defoñeo: Naho tsy midoñe an-dakañe atoy iereo, le tsy ho rombaheñe ka nahareo.
Paul said to the centurion and to the soldiers, Except these abide in the ship, ye cannot be saved.
32 Aa le pinoto’ o lahin-defoñeo ty tali’ i anan-dakañey vaho napoke hihintsañe añe.
Then the soldiers cut off the ropes of the boat, and let her fall off.
33 Ie nangarañe i àndroy le songa nosihe’ i Paoly ondatio hikama, ami’ty hoe: Fa nifeake naho nitolom-pililitse andro folo-efats’ amby tika, tsy nitendre inoñ’ inoñe.
And while the day was coming on, Paul besought [them] all to take meat, saying, This day is the fourteenth day that ye have tarried and continued fasting, having taken nothing.
34 Aa le iboliboliako hikama fa rombak’ay toy, amy te leo raik’ ama’ areo tsy ho po-maròy raike ty añambone’e.
Wherefore I pray you to take [some] meat: for this is for your health: for there shall not an hair fall from the head of any of you.
35 Ie nanao izay, le nandrambe mofo, nañandriañe an’ Andrianañahare añatrefa’ iareo iaby, naho finola’e vaho nikama.
And when he had thus spoken, he took bread, and gave thanks to God in presence of them all: and when he had broken [it], he began to eat.
36 Hene nazava-troke vaho nangalake mahakama;
Then were they all of good cheer, and they also took [some] meat.
37 aa ie natontoñe le roanjato-tsi-fitom-polo-eneñ’ amby ro amy lakañey.
And we were in all in the ship two hundred threescore and sixteen souls.
38 Ie niànjañe, le nampaivañe’ iereo i lakañey am-pañariañe i tsakoy an-driak’ ao.
And when they had eaten enough, they lightened the ship, and cast out the wheat into the sea.
39 Ie nazava i àndroy, nialik’ am’ iereo i taney, f’ie nahatalake vinañe naho faseñe añ’olots’ey ze mete’ i lakañey hitoañeñe.
And when it was day, they knew not the land: but they discovered a certain creek with a shore, into the which they were minded, if it were possible, to thrust in the ship.
40 Aa le nampipitsoheñ’ añe o vato-fatsikeo, naho napok’ an-driak’ ao, naho binatsa’ iareo o talim-panehafan-dakañeo, naho naonjoñe amy tiokey ty lai-aolo, vaho nigodañe mb’ añ’ olotse ey.
And when they had taken up the anchors, they committed [themselves] unto the sea, and loosed the rudder bands, and hoised up the mainsail to the wind, and made toward shore.
41 Fe nidoñe am-pifanampean-driake roe eo i lakañey, le nidevoke naho nijihetse am-paseñe ao ty loha’e, tsy nitroetroe, vaho dinorodemo’ ty fivalitaboa’ o onjao i voli’ey.
And falling into a place where two seas met, they ran the ship aground; and the forepart stuck fast, and remained unmoveable, but the hinder part was broken with the violence of the waves.
42 Fisafirie’ o lahin-defoñeo ty hanjamañe o mpirohio kera hilaño vaho hibotitsike.
And the soldiers’ counsel was to kill the prisoners, lest any of them should swim out, and escape.
43 Fe te handrombake i Paoly i mpifehe zatoy, le tsy nimea’e henefeñe i kililiy, vaho linili’e te hijoñe an-drano aolo ze nahay nilaño, hitakare’e i taney.
But the centurion, willing to save Paul, kept them from [their] purpose; and commanded that they which could swim should cast [themselves] first [into the sea], and get to land:
44 Nandrambe varamba o ila’eo naho potepoten-dakañe ka ty ila’e vaho songa ni-tra-drombak’ an-tamboho eo.
And the rest, some on boards, and some on [broken pieces] of the ship. And so it came to pass, that they escaped all safe to land.
