Atos 27
1 E, como se determinou que haviamos de navegar para a Italia, entregaram Paulo, e alguns outros presos, a um centurião por nome Julio, da cohorte augusta.
When it was decided that we would sail to Italy, they transferred Paul and some other prisoners to a centurion named Julius, of the Augustan Cohort.
2 E, embarcando nós em um navio adramytino, partimos navegando pelos logares da Asia, estando comnosco Aristarcho, macedonio, de Thessalonica.
We got on board a ship of Adramyttium and put out to sea, intending to sail by the ports along the coast of Asia. With us was Aristarchus, a Macedonian of Thessalonica.
3 E chegámos no dia seguinte a Sidon, e Julio, tratando Paulo humanamente, lhe permittiu ir ver os amigos, para que cuidassem d'elle.
The next day we put in at Sidon, and Julius treated Paul kindly, allowing him to go to his friends and receive care.
4 E, partindo d'ali, fomos navegando abaixo de Chypre, porquanto os ventos eram contrarios.
From there we put out to sea and sailed under the lee of Cyprus, because the winds were against us.
5 E, tendo atravessado o mar, ao longo da Cilicia e Pamphylia, chegámos a Myrra, na Lycia.
After sailing across the open sea off Cilicia and Pamphylia, we arrived at Myra of Lycia.
6 E, achando ali o centurião um navio de Alexandria, que navegava para a Italia, nos fez embarcar n'elle.
There the centurion found an Alexandrian ship that was sailing to Italy and put us on board.
7 E, indo já por muitos dias navegando vagarosamente, e havendo chegado apenas defronte de Cnido, não nos permittindo o vento ir mais adiante, navegámos abaixo de Creta, junto de Salmone.
We sailed along slowly for many days and arrived with difficulty off Cnidus. When the wind did not allow us to hold our course, we sailed under the lee of Crete off Salmone.
8 E, costeando-a difficilmente, chegámos a um certo logar chamado Bons Portos, perto do qual estava a cidade de Lasca.
Sailing along the coast with difficulty, we came to a place called Fair Havens, which was near the city of Lasea.
9 E, passado muito tempo, e sendo já perigosa a navegação, porquanto já tambem o jejum tinha passado, Paulo os admoestava,
Since much time had been lost and the voyage had now become dangerous because the Fast was already over, Paul advised the ship's officers,
10 Dizendo-lhes: Varões, vejo que a navegação ha de ser incommoda, e com muito damno, não só para o navio e carga, mas tambem para as nossas vidas.
“Men, I perceive that this voyage is going to result in damage and great loss, not only of the cargo and of the ship, but also of our lives.”
11 Porém o centurião cria mais no piloto e no mestre, do que no que dizia Paulo.
But the centurion was persuaded by the ship's captain and the shipowner rather than by what Paul said.
12 E, não sendo aquelle porto commodo para invernar, os mais d'elles foram de parecer que se partisse d'ali para ver se podiam chegar a Phenix, que é um ponto de Creta que olha para a banda do vento da Africa e do Coro, e invernar ali.
Because the harbor was not a suitable place for spending the winter, the majority made a decision to set sail from there also, hoping to somehow reach Phoenix, a harbor of Crete facing southwest and northwest, so that we could spend the winter there.
13 E, soprando o sul brandamente, lhes pareceu terem já o que desejavam, e, fazendo-se de vela, foram de muito perto costeando Creta.
When a south wind started blowing gently, they thought that the opportunity had come for them to carry out their plan. So they weighed anchor and sailed closely along the shore of Crete.
14 Porém não muito depois deu n'ella um pé de vento, chamado euro-aquilão.
But before long, a hurricane-force wind called Euroclydon swept down from the island.
15 E, sendo o navio arrebatado por elle, e não podendo navegar contra o vento, dando de mão a tudo, nos deixámos ir á tôa
When the ship was caught by the storm and could not head into the wind, we gave way to it and were driven along.
16 E, correndo abaixo de uma pequena ilha chamada Clauda, apenas podémos ganhar o batel,
Running under the lee of a small island called Clauda, we were able with difficulty to secure the skiff.
17 Levado para cima o qual, usaram de todos os remedios, cingindo o navio; e, temendo darem á costa na Syrte, amainadas as vélas, assim foram á tôa.
After hoisting it up, the sailors used supports to undergird the ship. Then, fearing they might run aground on the Syrtis, they lowered the gear, and in this manner the ship was driven along.
18 E, andando nós agitados por uma vehemente tempestade, no dia seguinte alliviaram o navio.
The next day, because we were being severely battered by the storm, the sailors began throwing the cargo overboard.
19 E ao terceiro dia nós mesmos, com as nossas proprias mãos, lançámos ao mar a armação do navio
On the third day we threw the ship's tackle overboard with our own hands.
20 E, não apparecendo, havia já muitos dias, nem sol nem estrellas, e opprimindo-nos uma não pequena tempestade, fugiu-nos toda a esperança de nos salvarmos.
When neither sun nor stars appeared for many days, and the violent storm continued to rage, all hope that we might be saved was lost.
21 E, havendo já muito que se não comia, então Paulo, pondo-se em pé no meio d'elles, disse: Fôra na verdade razoavel, ó varões, ter-me ouvido a mim e não partir de Creta, e evitar assim este incommodo e esta perdição.
Since there had been little desire to eat, Paul stood up among them and said, “Men, you should have listened to my advice not to set sail from Crete; then you would have spared yourselves this damage and loss.
22 Porém agora vos admoesto a que tenhaes bom animo, porque não se perderá a vida de nenhum de vós, mas sómente o navio.
But now I advise you to be of good cheer, for there will be no loss of life among you, but only of the ship.
23 Porque esta mesma noite o anjo de Deus, de quem eu sou, e a quem sirvo, esteve comigo,
For this very night an angel of the God to whom I belong and whom I serve stood beside me
24 Dizendo: Paulo, não temas: importa que sejas apresentado a Cesar, e eis que Deus te deu todos quantos navegam comtigo.
and said, ‘Do not be afraid, Paul; yoʋ must stand before Caesar. And behold, God has granted yoʋ the safety of all who are sailing with yoʋ.’
25 Portanto, ó varões, tende bom animo; porque creio em Deus, que ha de acontecer assim como a mim me foi dito.
Therefore be of good cheer, men, for I have faith in God that it will happen just as I have been told.
26 Porém é necessario irmos dar n'uma ilha.
But we must run aground on some island.”
27 E, quando chegou a decima quarta noite, sendo impellidos de uma e outra banda no mar Adriatico, lá pela meia noite suspeitaram os marinheiros de que estavam proximos d'alguma terra.
When the fourteenth night had come, as we were being driven across the Adriatic Sea, about midnight the sailors suspected that they were approaching some land.
28 E, lançando o prumo, acharam vinte braças; e, passando um pouco mais adiante, tornando a lançar o prumo, acharam quinze braças.
So they took a sounding and found it to be twenty fathoms. After going a little farther, they took another sounding and found it to be fifteen fathoms.
29 E, temendo ir dar em alguns rochedos, lançaram da pôpa quatro ancoras, desejando que viesse o dia.
Fearing that we might run aground on the rocks, they let down four anchors from the stern and prayed for daybreak to come.
30 Procurando, porém, os marinheiros fugir do navio, e deitando o batel ao mar, como que querendo lançar as ancoras pela prôa,
Then the sailors tried to escape from the ship by lowering the skiff into the sea under the pretense that they were going to lay out anchors from the bow.
31 Disse Paulo ao centurião e aos soldados: Se estes não ficarem no navio, não podereis salvar-vos.
So Paul said to the centurion and the soldiers, “If these men do not remain in the ship you cannot be saved.”
32 Então os soldados cortaram os cabos do batel, e o deixaram cair.
Then the soldiers cut away the ropes of the skiff and let it drift away.
33 E entretanto que o dia vinha, Paulo exhortava a todos a que comessem alguma coisa, dizendo: É já hoje o decimo quarto dia que esperaes, e permaneceis sem comer, não havendo provado nada.
When daybreak was about to come, Paul encouraged them all to take some food, saying, “Today is the fourteenth day that you have continued in suspense without eating, having taken nothing.
34 Portanto, exhorto-vos a que comaes alguma coisa, pois importa para a vossa saude; porque nem um cabello da cabeça de qualquer de vós cairá.
Therefore I urge you to take some food, for this is important for your survival, since not a hair will fall from the head of any one of you.”
35 E, havendo dito isto, tomando o pão, deu graças a Deus na presença de todos; e, partindo-o, começou a comer.
After saying this, Paul took some bread and gave thanks to God in the presence of them all. Then he broke it and began to eat.
36 E, tendo já todos bom animo, pozeram-se tambem a comer.
They were all encouraged and took food themselves.
37 E eramos por todos no navio duzentas e setenta e seis almas.
(Altogether there were two hundred seventy-six of us on the ship.)
38 E, refeitos já da comida, alliviaram o navio, lançando o trigo ao mar.
When they had eaten their fill of food, they began to lighten the ship by throwing the wheat out into the sea.
39 E, sendo já dia, não conheceram a terra; porém enxergaram uma enseada que tinha praia, e consultaram-se sobre se deveriam encalhar n'ella o navio.
When daybreak came, the sailors did not recognize the land. But they noticed a bay with a beach and decided that, if possible, they would run the ship ashore there.
40 E, levantando as ancoras, deixaram-n'o ir ao mar, largando tambem as amarras do leme; e, alçando a véla maior ao vento, dirigiram-se para a praia.
So they cut away the anchors and left them in the sea, at the same time loosening the bands of the rudders. Then they hoisted the foresail up into the blowing wind and made for the beach.
41 Dando, porém, em logar de dois mares, encalharam ali o navio; e, fixa a prôa, ficou immovel, porém a pôpa abria-se com a força das ondas.
But they struck a sandbar and ran the ship aground. The bow stuck fast and remained immovable, and the stern was being broken apart by the force of the waves.
42 Então o conselho dos soldados foi que matassem os presos para que nenhum fugisse, escapando a nado.
The soldiers' plan was to kill the prisoners, so that none of them would swim away and escape.
43 Porém o centurião, querendo salvar a Paulo, lhes estorvou este intento; e mandou que os que podessem nadar se lançassem primeiro ao mar, e se salvassem em terra;
But the centurion, wishing to save Paul's life, kept them from carrying out their plan. So he ordered those who could swim to jump overboard first and get to land,
44 E os demais, uns em taboas e outros em coisas do navio. E assim aconteceu que todos se salvaram em terra.
and the rest were to follow, some on planks and some on pieces of the ship. And so it was that they were all brought safely to land.
