Mahi 27
1 A, no ka takoto te tikanga kia rere matou ki Itari, ka tukua a Paora, me era atu herehere ki tetahi keneturio, ko Huriu te ingoa, no te hapu o Akuhata.
And when it was determined for us to sail for Italy, they delivered both Paul and some other prisoners to a centurion named Julius, of the band of Augustus.
2 Na eke ana matou ki tetahi kaipuke o Ataramituma, e tika ana ra nga kainga o Ahia, rere ana matou; ko Aritaku o Teharonika, he tangata no Makeronia, to matou hoa.
And having gotten on a ship of Adramyttium that was going to sail to the places along Asia, we launched, Aristarchus, a Macedonian of Thessalonica, being with us.
3 Po tahi ka u matou ki Hairona: na ka ngawari te mahi a Huriu ki a Paora, tuku ana ia kia haere ki ona hoa kia atawhaitia.
And on another day we put in at Sidon. And Julius, who treated Paul kindly, allowed him to undergo care, after going to his friends.
4 Rere atu ana i reira, ka miri haere matou i te taha o Kaiperu, no te mea i he te hau.
And having launched from there, we sailed under lee of Cyprus, because the winds were contrary.
5 Whiti ana matou i te moana o Kirikia, o Pamapuria, ka u ki Maira, he pa no Raikia.
And having sailed across the depths along Cilicia and Pamphylia, we came to Myra, of Lycia.
6 Na ka mau i te keneturio he kaipuke ki reira no Arehanaria, e rere ana ki Itari; ka utaina matou e ia ki runga.
And there, the centurion having found a ship of Alexandria sailing for Italy, he put us in it.
7 A, ka po maha i puhoi ai te rere, ka whiti whakauaua ki te ritenga atu o Hiniru, a, te tukua matou e te hau, ka miri haere matou i te taha o Kariti i te ritenga atu o Haramone;
And sailing slowly during considerable days, and with difficulty having come along the Cnidus, the wind not allowing us further, we sailed under lee of Crete, along Salmone.
8 A ka pahemo whakauaua a reira, ka u matou ki tetahi kainga, ko Nga Kokoru Ataahua te ingoa; e tata ana a reira ki te pa o Rahia.
And sailing by it with difficulty, we came to a certain place called Fair Havens, near to which was Lasea City.
9 A, ka maha nga ra ka pahemo, na kua kino te rerenga, no te mea kua pahemo ke te po nohopuku, a ka whakatupato a Paora,
And considerable time having past, and the voyage now being dangerous, also because the Fast was now past, Paul urged,
10 Ka mea ki a ratou, E mara ma, e kite ana ahau i te kino, i te nui o te mate e pa mai i tenei rerenga, ehara i te mea ko te utanga anake me te kaipuke, engari ko tatou ano.
saying to them, Men, I perceive that the voyage is going to be with injury and much damage, not only of the cargo and the ship, but also of our lives.
11 Otira nui ke atu te aro o te keneturio ki te kapene raua ko te tangata nona te kaipuke i tana ki nga mea i korero ai a Paora.
But the centurion was convinced more by the captain and the shipmaster than to those things spoken by Paul.
12 A, i te mea kihai i pai taua kokoru hei tunga i te hotoke, ka mea te tokomaha kia rere atu ano i reira, me kore e u ki Pinikia, ki reira tu ai i te hotoke; he kokoru ia no Kariti, e anga ana ki te uru ma tonga, ki te uru ma raki.
And since the haven was inconvenient to winter in, the majority gave counsel to launch from there also, if somehow they might be able, after arriving at Phoenix, to winter in a haven of Crete, looking toward southwest and northwest.
13 A ka pa rekareka te tonga, ka mea ratou kua taea ta ratou i whakaaro ai, ka hutia te punga; a miri haere ana i Kariti.
And when a south wind blew gently, having presumed to have obtained their purpose, after taking up anchor, they sailed very near by Crete.
14 Na kihai i roa ka puta he hau nui whakaharahara, ko Urokarairona te ingoa.
But not long after, there threw against it a cyclonic wind called the Euroclydon.
15 A ka kahakina te kaipuke, te ngongo ki te hau, na ka tukua e matou ki tana, a ka paea.
And the ship having been caught, and not being able to face the wind, having given up, we were driven.
16 Na ka miri i te taha ruru o tetahi motu, tona ingoa ko Karaura; ka riro whakauaua mai te poti i a matou:
And having sailed under lee of a certain island called Clauda, we were able with difficulty, to develop control of the skiff.
17 A ka hutia ake, ka hanga ki te whakau, meatia he awhi mo te tangere o te puke; a, no ka mataku kei eke ki te tahuna, ki Hatihi, ka tukua te ra, a ka paea haeretia.
And having taken that up, they used helps, undergirding the ship. And fearing lest they might fall off into the sandbank, having lowered the vessel, they were driven this way.
18 A, no ka tino akina matou e te tupuhi, i te aonga ake ka akiritia nga utanga;
And since we were exceedingly storm-tossed, on the next day they jettisoned.
19 A i toru o nga ra ka maka atu e ratou ki o ratou ringa nga mea ake o te kaipuke.
And the third day we cast out by hands the tackling of the ship.
20 A he maha nga ra i kore ai e puta te ra me nga whetu, kihai ano i iti te tupuhi i akina ai matou, na ka mahue katoa to matou whakaaro ki te ora.
And when neither sun nor stars appeared for more days, and no small storm laying on, all remaining hope for us to be saved was taken away.
21 Heoi ka roa te nohopuku, na ka tu a Paora i waenganui o ratou, ka mea, E mara ma, engari ra me i rongo koutou ki ahau, kia kaua e rere mai i Kariti, kei pa mai tenei kino, tenei mate.
And being long without food, then Paul, who stood in the midst of them, said, Ye truly ought, O men, to have complied with me, not to launch from Crete, and gain this damage and loss.
22 Na ko taku kupu tenei ki a koutou, Kia marama te ngakau: e kore hoki e mate tetahi o koutou, ko te kaipuke anake.
And now I exhort you to cheer up, for there will not be one loss of life from you, except of the ship.
23 I tu hoki ki toku taha i tenei po he anahera na te Atua, nana nei ahau, ko ia taku e karakia atu nei,
For there stood by me this night an agent of the God whose I am, whom also I serve,
24 I mea mai, Aua e mataku, e Paora; me tu koe ki te aroaro o Hiha: nana, kua hoatu ki a koe e te Atua te hunga katoa e rere tahi na koutou.
saying, Fear not, Paul. Thou must stand before Caesar, and lo, God has granted thee all those sailing with thee.
25 Na kia marama te ngakau, e mara ma: e whakapono ana hoki ahau ki te Atua, e rite ano ki tana i korero mai ai ki ahau.
Therefore men, cheer up, for I believe God, that it will be so in that way it has been told to me.
26 Otira kua takoto te tikanga kia eke tatou ki tetahi motu.
But we must fall off upon a certain island.
27 Na i te tekau ma wha o nga po, i a matou e kahakihakina ana i te moana o Aria, i waenganui po, ka mea nga heramana kei te whakatata ratou ki tetahi whenua;
And when it became the fourteenth night, as we were driven about in the Adriatic sea, toward midnight the sailors suspected some region to come near them.
28 Na ka whakatatutu ratou, ka kite e rua tekau maro: a ka neke tata atu, ka whakatatutu ano, ka kite kotahi tekau ma rima maro.
And having tossed lead, they found twenty fathoms, and having gone a little farther, and having tossed lead again, they found fifteen fathoms.
29 Na ka mataku kei paea matou ki nga toka, ka tukua nga punga e wha i te kei, ka hiahia ki te awatea.
And fearing lest somehow we might falloff on rough places, having cast off four anchors from the stern, they prayed for day to develop.
30 A, i nga heramana e mea ana kia oma atu i te kaipuke, e tuku ana hoki i te poti ki te moana, he whakaware, kia kiia ai e tukua ana etahi punga i te ihu.
And since the sailors sought to flee out of the ship, and having lowered the skiff into the sea in pretense as going to stretch out anchors from the bow,
31 Ka mea a Paora ki te keneturio ratou ko nga hoia, Ki te kore enei e noho ki te kaipuke, e kore koutou e taea te whakaora.
Paul said to the centurion and to the soldiers, Unless these men remain in the ship, ye cannot be saved.
32 Katahi ka tapahia nga whakaheke o te poti e nga hoia, a tukua ana kia taka atu.
Then the soldiers cut away the ropes of the skiff, and let it fall off.
33 A i te mea meake puao te ra, ka tohe a Paora ki a ratou katoa kia kai, ka mea, Ko te tekau ma wha tenei o nga ra e tatari nei koutou, e nohopuku nei, te o te kai.
And until day was going to develop, Paul urged them all to partake of food, saying, Today is the fourteenth day, waiting, ye continue without food, having taken nothing.
34 Koia ahau ka tohe nei kia kai: ko tetahi mea hoki tenei e ora ai koutou: e kore hoki e ngahoro tetahi huruhuru o te o tetahi o koutou,
Therefore I encourage you to take of food, for this is for your safety. For not a hair will fall from the head of one of you.
35 A, no tana korerotanga i enei kupu, ka mau ki te taro, ka whakawhetai ki te Atua i te aroaro o te katoa: a ka whawhati, ka timata te kai.
And having said these things, and having taken bread, he expressed thanks to God in the presence of all. And having broke in pieces, he began to eat.
36 Na ka marama nga ngakau o ratou katoa, ka kai ano ratou.
And they all, having become encouraged, also took food.
37 Na e rua rau e whitu tekau ma ono matou katoa i te kaipuke.
And all the souls in the ship were two hundred seventy-six.
38 A, no ka makona i te kai, ka whakamama ratou i te kaipuke, ka akiritia te witi ki te moana.
And after being filled of food, they unloaded the ship, throwing out the wheat into the sea.
39 A ka ao te ra kihai ratou i mohio ki tera whenua; engari i kite ratou i tetahi kokoru he one to reira, a ka mea ratou me kore e ahei te aki atu i te kaipuke ki roto.
And when it became day, they did not recognize the land, but they noticed a certain bay having a beach, onto which, they decided if possible, to drive the ship.
40 Na tapahia ana e ratou nga punga, tukua ana ki te moana, i whakakorokoroa ana nga here o te urungi, ka hutia ano te ra nui ki te hau, ka tika atu ki te one.
And having cast off the anchors, they left them in the sea, at the same time unfastening the bands of the rudders. And having hoisted up the foresail to the wind, they held firm for the shore.
41 A, ka puta atu ki tetahi wahi, he tai papakirua, ka whakaekea te kaipuke; a titi tonu te ihu, mau tonu, ko te kei i pakaru i te kaha o te ngaru.
And having chanced upon a place where two seas meet, they ran the ship aground. And of course, the bow having become stuck, it remained immovable, but the stern was coming apart by the force of the waves.
42 A, ki ta nga hoia whakaaro, me whakamate nga herehere, kei kau tetahi ki uta, kei oma.
And a decision of the soldiers developed that they should kill the prisoners, lest any man, having swam away, might escape.
43 Ko te keneturio ia i mea kia whakaorangia a Paora, kihai hoki i tukua ki ta ratou i whakaaro ai; na ka mea ia, kia matua peke atu te hunga e matau ana ki te kau, kia kau ki uta:
But the centurion, wanting to save Paul, prevented them from their purpose, and commanded those who were able to swim, having first jumped out, to go to the land,
44 Ko era atu, ko etahi i runga i nga papa, ko etahi i runga i etahi o nga mea o te kaipuke. Heoi tae ora katoa ana ratou ki uta.
and the remaining, some on boards, and some on any of the things from the ship. And so it came to pass for all to be saved to the land.
