1 Itali ni daansoon kaat suh roongwaan kino, Pool nyia wahoh phaatak ni sakte loong ah mararah ah Room nok hah nawa arami saahaap Julius suh koh rumta, erah arami suh “Luuwanglong Regimeen ngeh ih men rumta.”
When now was determined sailing our to Italy, they were delivering both Paul and certain other prisoners to a centurion named Julius of the cohort of Augustus.
2 Adramittiam dowa juukaari adi du kati, erah langla Esia hah dowa juukaari khoon chaptheng ko kaatte angta eno erah di daansoon kati. Mesidonia mih wasiit, Aristarkas ah Thesalonika nawa angta, heh uh seng damdi angta.
Having boarded then on a ship of Adramyttium (being about *N(k)O*) to sail (to *no*) the along Asia places we set sail — while was being with us Aristarchus a Macedonian of Thessalonica.
3 Erah saalih adi Sidoon ni thokti. Julias ih Pool ah minchan eta, eno heh joon loong ah jiinni toom chosok rum ah ngeh ih wang thukta.
On the then next [day] we landed at Sidon, Considerately then Julius Paul was treating he allowed [him] to [his] friends (may be going *N(k)O*) care to receive.
4 Pong ih rapne eh mot heeno erah dowa Kaipras juuloot hah adi daansoon kati.
And from there And from there having set sail we sailed under Cyprus because of the winds being contrary,
5 Silisia nyia Pamphilia juusih ah daan eno Maira hah Lisia ko angta adi wang tahe.
And then along Cilicia and Pamphylia having sailed across [the sea] we came to Myra of Lycia.
6 Erah di Elekjendar nawa juukaari ah Itali ni wangte angta, eno saahaap ah ih erah japtup ano duutong kaat thuk tahe.
And there And there having found the centurion a ship of Alexandria sailing to Italy he placed us into it.
7 Seng loong reere ih daansoon eno sa hantek di Nindus samhah ah kanak eh thokti. Pong thoidi erah ko takah jen kati, erah raangtaan ih Salmone lam eh Kret juuloot hah adi daansoonti.
For many now days sailing slowly and with difficulty having arrived off Cnidus not is permitting us the wind we sailed under Crete off Salmone,
8 Juukaang juukaang eh daan kah eno Sep Habor ngeh ih men rumta juukaari naangchap theng adi kanak rangthuk ih thok wangti. Erah Lasisa samhah dowa eh haloh tah angta.
With difficulty and coasting along it we came to a place certain being called Fair Havens, to which near [the] city was of Lasea.
9 Erah di seng rekam tong eno, ju ni daan ah choophaan phaan eh angta, seng loong Khojoop Rangwu ah liin eta. Erah raangtaan ih Pool ih juukaari dowa saahaap loong asuh renbaat rumta:
When much now time having passed and is being already dangerous the voyage because of even the Fast already being over, was admonishing [them] Paul
10 “Mina loong, arah dowa ju nah daan bah cho ejih tup hang huikhaak thiintheng ah khoodaat eh ah eno seng roidong uh thoon eh ah.”
saying to them; Men, I understand that with disaster and much loss not only of the (burden *N(k)O*) and of the ship but also the lives of us ensuing to be the voyage.
11 Enoothong arami saahaap ah ih Pool jeng ah lalek boichaat thang ih; juukaari jopte nyia juukaari changte jeng ah boichaatta.
But the centurion by the pilot and by the ship owner rather was persuaded than by the [things] by (*k*) Paul spoken.
12 Juukaari chaptheng ah hahook di taseeta; erah raangtaan ih miloong ah ehanko ah juusih dowa Phoeniks ni daansoon chung rumta, lek jen daan rum ah baleh, hahook doh Phoeniks nah tong suh ah. Phoeniks ah langla juukaari lomchap theng Kret ni angta Juukuh Juumeh eh angta.
Unsuitable now the harbor being to winter in the majority reached a decision to set sail (from there, *N(k)O*) if somehow they would be able having arrived at Phoenix to winter [there] — a harbor of Crete looking toward [the] southwest and toward [the] northwest.
13 Juumeh ko nawa pong ah amasah phang pong kano, miloong ah ih thunta neng jen dokkhoom ekah ah ngeh ah, erah thoidi hetang bentheng jaankeng ah jaahoom rum ano Kret ko juukaang juukaang ih daansoon rumta.
When was blowing gently now a south wind having thought the purpose to have obtained, having weighed [anchor] very near they were coasting along Crete.
14 Enoothong dokchap damdam eh pong ah rapne eh pongta, erah pong asuh “Juukuh saadong pong” ngeh ih li rumta, eno erah pong ah juuloot hah dowa eh datpong taha.
After not long however it threw down from it a wind tempestuous which is being called [the] Northeaster.
15 Juukaari ah pong ih tangmotta, seng ih uh takah jook motsiitti, pong nawa ih heh soonsoon lan eh thukti.
When was being seized then the ship and not being able to face to the wind having given way we were driven along.
16 Juuloot adi hah ehinsah Kuada ngeh ih angta eno juulah ko kah idi, juukaari chap theng kok jeeta. Erah di, juukaari ah tangchap thuk suh rapne eh chamti.
An Island then certain having run under being called (Cauda *N(K)O*) we were able with difficulty control to gain of the lifeboat,
17 Juukaari ah tanghoom rum ano ru nawa ih kook tangkit rumta. Neng loong ah phisaang ni duusoon raacho eh Libia juukaang ko pong suh hesoon soon eh hengmot kaatthuk rumta.
which having taken up supports they were using undergirding the ship; Fearing then lest into the sandbars of Syrtis they may fall having lowered the gear, thus they were driven along.
18 Pong aphaat ah choophaan phaan ih pongroh eh kano, erah saalih adi huikhaak rukho ah juukaari dowa lamdat haat eh rumta,
Violently now being storm-tossed of us on the next [day] a jettison of cargo they were making;
19 eno erah saalih adi juukaari ni maak theng jaan loong ah daat haat eh rumta.
and on the third [day] with [their] own hands the tackle of the ship (they cast away; *N(K)O*)
20 Sa hantek rangsa nyia ritsih uh tajap tupti, pong ah thidokdok ih pongroh eta. Seng uh epui eli ngeh ih takah laalomti.
Neither now sun nor stars appearing for many days, tempest and no small afflicted [us] from then on was abandoned hope all of being saved us.
21 Miloong ah sa hantek samuh tong rumkano, Pool neng ngathong ni toonchap ano jengta, “Mina loong, nga jeng ah thaangchaat anno Kret nawa ladokchap dobah ese ang thengta; eno seng athan tachamnaang thengti nyia huikhaak uh taathet haat thengti.
Much (also *N(k)O*) time without food there being at that time having stood up Paul in midst of them he said; It was necessary [for you] indeed, O men, having been obedient to me not to have set sail from Crete, to have incurred then disaster this and loss.
22 Bolam uh sen lasih jorum hala, nakcho an! Seng khoh sengseng abah tamake juukaari ah ba ethet eh ah.
And yet now I exhort you to keep up your courage; loss for of life none there will be from among you only of the ship.
23 Ngah ih soomhang Rangte Kamwah muphe ra haano,
Stood by for me this night of God whose am (I myself *n*) whom and I serve an angel
24 baat tahang, ‘Nakcho uh, Pool! An Luuwanglong ngathong nah chap jaatjaat etheng. Eno Rangte minchan doh an damdoh soonte loong ah uh epui eh ah.’
saying; Not do fear, Paul, to Caesar you it behooves to stand before, And behold has granted to you God all those sailing with you.
25 Miwah loong, erah raangtaan ih nakcho an! Nga Rangte erah baat tahang asuh laalom lang jun ih ju ang ah.
Therefore take courage men; I believe for in God that thus it will be according to the way it has been said to me.
26 Enoothong juuloot ehoko maako bah uh soonmot ekaat he.”
Upon an island however certain it behooves us to fall.
27 Asih saabaji sa rangphe di, Mediteeren juusih ko eh soonmot kaat tahe. Rangphe thungkham di jopte loong ah ih hah thoksoon eli samthun rumta.
When then [the] fourteenth night had come being driven about of us in the Adriatic, toward [the] middle of the night were sensing the sailors to be drawing near some to them land;
28 Erah raangtaan ih ruh tuiba ni tiim ah tiim ejih jaat benrum ano juumong ni thaak daat haat rumta eno rookbaji teekho choong angta; erah lih adi weethaak rum ano teekho rookjom angta.
And having taken soundings they found fathoms twenty, A little then having gone farther and again having taken soundings they found fathoms fifteen;
29 Jongkhoh nah maalek duusoon ji o ngeh eh cho rumta, erah raangtaan ih juukaari liko dowa tangtuk theng jaankeng baji ah daat hoom rum ano rangwu raangtaan ih rangsoom rumta.
Fearing then lest perhaps (on *N(k)O*) rocky places (we may fall, *NK(O)*) out of [the] stern having cast anchors four they were praying for day to come.
30 Enoothong jopte loong ah hotsoon esuh taatchung rumta; khoonkhu saloong ah datthiin rum ano heh ngako ni tangtuk theng jaankeng ih tangbat arah likhiik diip reeraang rumta.
Of the then sailors seeking to flee out of the ship and having let down the lifeboat into the sea under pretense as from [the] bow anchors being about to cast out
31 Enoothong Pool ih Arami Saahaap nyia heh sipaahi loong asuh baatta, “Juukaari khonah jopte lajeeka bah epui eh ang ngeh ih laalomjih tah angka.”
said Paul to the centurion and to the soldiers; Only unless these shall remain in the ship, [then] you yourselves to be saved not you are able.
32 Erah thoidi arami loong ah ih tangtuk eta ruh loong ah jaakhan rum ano heh soonsoon eh thuk rumta.
Then cut away the soldiers the ropes of the lifeboat and allowed her to fall away.
33 Rangkhano angnanah di, Pool ih tiim ah tiim jam phaksat baat rumta: “Chiinnyah dowa ih sen loong ah asih sa baji angla, eno amadi uh tiim uh taphaksah kan.
Until then that day was about to come, was urging Paul all to partake of food saying; [the] fourteenth today [is] day watching without eating you continue nothing having taken.
34 Erah raangtaan ih, sen lasih jorum hala, tiim ah tiim jam phaksah an; elun esuh phak asat jam phaksat etheng. Sen khoroon tasiit taan uh tamah kan ang ah.”
Therefore I exhort you (to partake *N(k)O*) of food; this indeed for of you preservation is; not [one] for of you a hair (of *N(k)O*) the head (will perish. *N(K)O*)
35 Erah jeng lidi, Pool ih baanlo ah toonpi ano, Rangte suh lakookmi li ano, chep hoom phakta.
Having said now these things and having taken bread he gave thanks to God before all, and having broken [it] he began to eat.
36 Erah dowa ih ba neng chaan kok dongta, eno loongtang ih jam phaksah rumta.
Encouraged then having been all also themselves they took food;
37 Seng loong ah roop roop ih 276 mina tongti.
(we were *N(k)O*) then the altogether souls in the boat (two hundred *NK(O)*) seventy six.
38 Neng loong ah ih phoot phaksah rum ano, huichaang suh juukaari dowa wong ah ju ni lamset haat rumta.
Having been filled then (*o*) with food they were lightening the ship casting out the wheat into the sea.
39 Rang ah wu ano, jopte loong ah ih hah ah maako ah tasamjat rumta, enoothong juusih kaang ah japtup rumta, neng ih thunta ese ang abah; juukaari ah phisaang khonah tangchap theng.
When now day it was, the land not they were recognizing, a bay however certain they were noticing having a shore, on which (they were determining *N(k)O*) if (they would be able, *NK(o)*) (to drive [aground] *NK(O)*) the ship.
40 Erah thoidi tangtuk theng jaankeng loong ah thakhan rum ano juusih ko lupdat kaat thuk rumta, erah damdam ih tangkit eh rumta ruh loong ah jaahaat. Eno pong asuh hengmot kaat thuk suh hengah ko lengmot etheng nyuh ah tangtin eh rumta, eno hekaang ko eh kati.
And the anchors having cut away they were leaving [them] in the sea, at the same time having loosened the ropes of the rudders And having hoisted the foresail to the blowing [wind] they were making for the shore.
41 Enoothong juukaari ah ih phisaang ah choksuh ano saanghook ni du soonta; hengah ko thut ano takah mi moseeta, helih ko ah juutak ih jopmotta.
Having fallen however into a place between two seas they ran aground the vessel; and the indeed bow having stuck fast it remained immovable, however the stern was being broken up by the violence of the waves.
42 Arami loong ah ih phaatak ni sakta miloong ah, juukaang ko daanjaap rum ano phomoong soon rum ah ngeh ih tek haat esuh chung rumta.
Of the now soldiers [the] plan was that the prisoners they may kill, lest anyone having swum away (may escape. *N(k)O*)
43 Enoothong arami saahaap ah ih Pool puipang suh li ano, tatek haat thuk rumta. Erah nang ebah, o o ah juujap miiha juukaang ko datpit rum ano daanjap baat rumta;
But the centurion desiring to save Paul hindered them of the purpose, he commanded then those being able to swim having cast [themselves] off first on the land to go out,
44 wahoh loong asuh neng lilih ih, banglo nyia juukaari jopdaatta chep loong adoh joh ano daanjaap baat rumta. Eno seng loong ah juukaang ko emah daansoon eno kok puiti.
and the rest some indeed on boards, some however on things from the ship. And thus it came to pass that all being saved to the land.
