Itendi 27
1 Bhai ikaamulishweje kuti tujende ku Italia na meli, a Pauli na bhaatabhwanga bhananji gubhabhishilwenje muulinda gwa a Juliashi bhaaliji bhakulungwa bha bhaakomana ngondo bha shikundi shishemwa “Shikundi sha a Kaishali Augushito.”
And when it was determined that we should sail for Italy, they delivered Paul and certain other prisoners to a centurion named Julius, of the Augustan band.
2 Gutukwelile meli ja ku Adilamito jaliji tayali kujabhula mwanja pitila mbwani ya shilambo sha ku Ashia, gututandwibhe mwanja. A Alishitako kopoka ku bhandunji bha ku Makedonia kukopoka ku Teshalonike paliji na uwe.
And going on board a ship of Adramyttium, about to sail along the coasts of Asia, we put to sea; Aristarchus, a Macedonian of Thessalonica, being with us.
3 Pa malabhi gakwe gutuishe ku Shidoni na meli. A Juliashi gubhaatendele a Pauli mituka kwa kwaaleshelela bhajende kwa ashaambwiga ajabho bhakapegwe indu ibhapingaga.
And the next day we landed at Sidon; and Julius treated Paul kindly, and gave him leave to go to his friends, and receive their care.
4 Kujabhula penepo gutupite na mwanja, pabha mbungo jatendaga puga koposhela mmujo jetu, gutubhambalile mmbali ja ku Shilia.
And thence putting to sea, we sailed under Cyprus, because the winds were contrary.
5 Tukapiteje litanda likulu lya ku Kilikia na ku Pampilia, gutuishe ku Mila, shilambo sha Likia.
And having sailed over the sea along Cilicia and Pamphylia, we came to Myra, a city of Lycia.
6 Kweneko bhakulungwa bha bhakomana ngondo bhala gubhajiimene meli jimo ja ku Alekishandilia jilipinga jabhula kwenda ku Italia, kwa nneyo gubhatukweshiye mwenemo.
And there the centurion, finding a ship of Alexandria about to sail for Italy, put us on board of it.
7 Gutupite na mwanja gwetu mbolembole kwa mobha gamagwinji, kwa lajilila gutuishe tome na ku Nido. Pabha mbungo jatendaga kutuibhilila, gutupitile mmbali ja ku Kilete tome na ku Shalimone.
And sailing slowly some days, and having with difficulty arrived over against Cnidus, the wind not permitting us to put in, we sailed under Crete, over against Salmone;
8 Gutupitile nnyenje jakwe kwa lajilila gutuishe mmbali jimo jishemwa “Bhandali ja Mmbone”, tome na shilambo sha Lashea.
and coasting along it with difficulty we came to a place called Fair Havens, near which was the city Lasea.
9 Gakapiteje mobha gamagwinji, mpaka lyubha lya tabha gulipitile. Na mwanja gwa mmashi pugwaliji gwa jogoya. Bhai, a Pauli gubhaaleshiyenje bhalinkuti,
And much time having been spent, and the voyage being now dangerous, because the Fast had already gone by, Paul advised them,
10 “Mmashileunji, ngunakuubhona aguno mwanja guno, upingabha gwa atali na shonanga, nngabha kwa mishigo na melipe, ikabhe nkali na gumi gwetu.”
saying, Sirs, I perceive that this voyage will be with injury and much loss, not only of the lading and the ship, but also of our lives.
11 Ikabheje bhakulungwa bha manjola bhala gubhapilikanishiye kaje malobhe ga bhaalongoya meli na bhayene meli nileka pilikanishiya malobhe ga a Pauli.
But the centurion believed the master and the owner of the ship more than what was spoken by Paul.
12 Pabha jene bhandalijo jikatemiji pammbone pa tama mobha ga shipwepwe, bhandunji bhabhagwinji mmwanja mula gubhapinjilenje tujende na mwanja tukaishe ku Poenike monaga shiitendeshe, nitama kweneko mobha ga shipwepwe. Poenike ni bhandali ja ku Kilete jiloya kwibhanda kuliwila lyubha na kuntundu kuliwila lyubha.
And as the harbor was not well situated for wintering, the greater part advised to sail thence also, if by any means they might reach Phoenix, a harbor of Crete, looking toward the southwest and northwest, and there winter.
13 Bhai, mbungo jammbone ja kopoka nnyuma jetu jikupundaga kupuga, gubhaganishiyenje kuti gubhatumbililenje gala shigatendeshe, gubhashoshiyenje nanga, gubhapitengenenje na mbwani tome na mbwani ja ku Kilete.
And when a south wind blew gently, supposing that they had obtained their purpose, they weighed anchor, and coasted along close by Crete.
14 Ikabheje pangakabhika, mbungo japunda ja mbuti shimbunga jishemwa “Mbungo ja kashikashi,” kukopoka ku Kilete shilambo shitimbililwe na mashi.
But not long after, there rushed against it a tempestuous wind, called Euroclydon.
15 Mbungo jikukomaga mmeli na pabha jikakombweleje kutaukangana najo gutujileshile jinokolwe na mbungo jila.
And the ship being caught, and unable to face the wind, we gave up to it, and were driven along.
16 Gutupitile shangu shilambo shimo shitimbililwe na mashi shishemwa Kauda gutwikombolele kukweya ntumbwi, ikabheje kwa lajilila.
And running under a certain small island called Clauda, we were hardly able to get possession of the boat;
17 Bhakakweyanjeje gubhajitabhilenje meli jila kwa pishiya nngoji pai jakwe. Bhatendaga jogopanga kutitimila munng'anji nnyenje bhaali kumbwani ja ku Shiliti. Kwa nneyo gubhatuluyenje indu yaigwinji na ligubho lya tejela mbungo nikujileka meli jinokolwe na mbungo.
which when they had taken up, they used helps, undergirding the ship; and fearing lest they should run into the Syrtis, they lowered the sail and so were driven.
18 Shimbunga shikupundaga kupugakwa mashili na pa malabhi gakwe tukujailaga mmashi mishigo ja mmeli jila.
And as we were violently tempest-tossed, the next day they began to lighten the vessel;
19 Lyubha lya tatu, gubhajailenje indu yaigwinji na ya kamulila maengo ya mmeli mula kwa makono gabhonji ashaayene.
and the third day we cast out with our own hands the movables of the ship.
20 Kwa mobha gamagwinji twangalibhona lyubha wala ndondwa, shimbunga gushipundile kupuga, mpaka gutuwile ntima ga tapulwa.
And as neither sun nor stars had appeared for many days, and no small tempest lay on us, thenceforward all hope that we should be saved was taken away.
21 Na bhakatamanjeje mobha gamagwinji gwangali kulya shalya, a Pauli gubhajimi pakati jabhonji, gubhashite, “Mmakulungwanji, kaliji nkambilikanishiyenje ninngajabhula ku Kilete kula. Tukanalaje nneino na tukanapate ashi shonangashi.
And after there had been much abstinence from food, Paul stood up in the midst of them and said, Sirs, ye should have hearkened to me, and not have put to sea from Crete, nod thus brought upon yourselves this injury and loss.
22 Ikabheje nnaino ngunakunnjuganga, nkolanje ntima, pabha jakwa nkali mundu jumo munkumbi gwenunji shawe, ikabhe melipe shijiangabhanishe.
And now I exhort you to be of good cheer; for there will be no loss of life among you, but only of the ship.
23 Pabha shilo sha lelo malaika jwa a Nnungu, a Nnnungu bhandendile nne kubha najwabho na bhungwatindibhalila ashinkujima tome na nne,
For there stood by me this night an angel of God, whose I am, and whom I serve,
24 gwamalanjile. ‘Pauli unajogope! Unapinjikwa ujime kwa a Kaishali na kabhili a Nnungu kwa uguja gwabho bhashikupa bhandunji bhowe bhalongenenje na ugwe jwakwapi shawe.’
saying, Fear not, Paul! Thou must stand before Caesar; and lo, God hath given thee all those that sail with thee.
25 Kwa nneyo mmashileunji nng'angalanje! Pabha ngunakwaakulupalila a Nungu kuti ibhamalanjile ila shiibhe nneyo peyo.
Wherefore, sirs, be of good cheer; for I believe God, that it will be just as it hath been told me.
26 Ikabheje mbungo shijitunokole nnyenje shilambo shitimbililwe na mashi shino.”
But we must be cast upon some island.
27 Shilo sha lyubha lya likumi limo na nsheshe jikapujeje mbungo, tulinokolelwa akuno na kukuno nnitanda likulu lya Adilia. Tome na pakati shilo bhatumishi bha mmeli mula gubhabhweninji mbuti tunabhandishila litaka.
And when the fourteenth night had come on, as we were driven onward in the Adriatic sea, about midnight the sailors suspected that they were near some country;
28 Kwa nneyo gubhatolilenje nngoji nitabhila shindu shatopa, nilinga mashi mugapelile, nibhona kutaliya kwa makono makumi nsheshe. Bhakajendangananjeje kashoko gubhalinjilenje kabhili gubhapatilenje shindu sha makono makumi gatatu.
and sounding, they found twenty fathoms; and having gone a little further and sounded again, they found fifteen fathoms;
29 Kwa jogopa kutitimila mmaganga gamakulungwa, gubhatuluyenje nanga nsheshe ya kunyuma ja meli, gubhajujilenje kushe shangu.
then fearing lest we should fall upon rocks, they cast four anchors out of the stern, and wished for day.
30 Bhatumishi bha mmeli mula gubhapinjilenje kutoloka, bhalituluyanga ntumbwi gwa kwitapulila mmashi, kwitembanga mbuti bhakwenda tuluyanga nanga ja mmujo.
And as the sailors were seeking means to escape from the ship, when they had lowered the boat into the sea, under the pretence that they were about to carry out anchors from the foreship,
31 Ikabheje a Pauli gubhaabhalanjile bhakulungwa bha manjola na ashimanjola bhabho, “Bhanganyanjibha bhakatamanje nkati meli nkatapulwanga.”
Paul said to the centurion and to the soldiers, If these men do not stay in the ship, ye cannot be saved.
32 Bhai ashimanjola bhala gubhaikitenje migoji jatabhilwe muntumbwi jila, gubhauleshilenje utolwe na mashi.
Then the soldiers cut off the ropes of the boat, and let it fall off.
33 Tome na kumashelo, a Pauli gubhaashondelesheyenje bhowenji bhalyanganje shalya, bhalinkuti, “Lelo lyubha lya likumi limo na nsheshe nninginji nkulolela gwangali kulya shoshowe.
And while the day was coming on, Paul exhorted them all to take food; saying, This is the fourteenth day that ye have waited, and continued fasting, having taken nothing.
34 Bhai, ngunakunshondelesheyanga nnianganje shalya shishintapulanje. Pabha nkali luumbo lwa mu ntwe ukamundu jojowe lukaobha.”
Wherefore I exhort you to take food; for this is for your safety; for there shall not a hair be lost from the head of one of you.
35 A Pauli bhakamaliyeje kubheleketa genego gubhatolile nkate, gubhatendile eja kwa a Nnungu bhowe bhalikwaabhonanga, gubhagabhile gubhatandwibhe kulya.
And having thus spoken, he took bread, and gave thanks to God in presence of them all, and having broken it, he began to eat.
36 Penepo gubhatagwilwenje ntima na bhowenji gubhalilenje shalya ashaayene.
Then were they all of good cheer, and they also took food.
37 Na mmeli mula putwaaliji tubhandu mmia pa bhili na makumi shabha na shita.
And there were of us in the ship in all two hundred and seventy-six souls.
38 Bhakalyanganjeje nijukuta, gubhapunguyenje nshigo gwa meli kwa jaa ngano mmashi.
And when they had eaten enough, they lightened the ship, casting out the grain into the sea.
39 Kukasheje, bhatumishi bha mmeli mula bhangashimanyanga shilambo shila, ikabhe gubhalibhweninji litingo limo nnyenje bhaali, gubhabhalanjilenenje bhajimikanje meli kweneko, monaga shiikomboleshe.
And when it was day, they did not know the land; but they observed a certain creek having a beach, into which they determined, if possible, to run the ship.
40 Kwa nneyo gubhakutulenje nanga nikwiileka nnitanda likulu na kabhili gubhagopolenje migoji ja tabhila nkongo gwa longosheya meli, gubhatabhilenje ligubho lina lya tejela mbungo nkupinga meli jijende shammujo, gubhaloshiyenje kunyenje bhaali.
And cutting away the anchors, they left them in the sea, and at the same time unfastening the rudder-bands, and hoisting the foresail to the wind, they made toward the beach.
41 Ikabheje gubhaikengenenje pugaimana mabhutuka gabhili ga bhaali, meli gujititimile. Mmujo ja meli mukutitimilaga nnitaka gujitemi gwangali kutenganyika. Kunyuma meli kukutandubhaga kutemeka ipande ligongo lya komwa na mabhimbili.
And falling into a place having the sea on both sides, they ran the ship aground; and the prow stuck fast, and remained immovable, but the stern was breaking to pieces with the violence [[of the waves]].
42 Ashimanjola gubhapinjilenje kwaabhulaganga bhatabhwa bhowe, nkujogopa bhanajojelelanga mpaka kunyenje bhaali nitolokanga.
And on the part of the soldiers there was a plan to kill the prisoners, lest any one should swim out and escape.
43 Ikabheje bhakulungwa bha manjola bhala bhashinkutumbilila kwaatapula a Pauli, gubhaalimbiyenje bhanatendanje gubhatumbilenje gala. Gubhatumile bhaakombolanga kujojelela, bhatandubhanje kutumbushila mmashi bhajojelelanje mpaka kulitaka,
But the centurion, wishing to save Paul, kept them from their purpose, and ordered those who could swim to cast themselves first into the sea, and get to land,
44 bhananji bhakagulanje bhaikamulilanje mmbao eu mwipande ina ya meli. Shana nneyo tubhowe gutuishe kulitaka tubhabhakoto.
and the rest, some on boards, and others on something from the ship. And in this way it came to pass, that they all escaped safe to land.
