1 Nabhayanga huje tihwanziwa abhale hu Italia, u Paulo nafungwe bhamwao wapelwa uafisa umo uwishi Roma itawa lyakwe yu Julio, uwipuga lya Agustani.
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 Tapanda imeli afume hu Adramitamu, yahanziwaga huje ijende munshenje ye pwani ya Asia. Tinjila mubahali. Alistaka afume hu Tesalonike ya hu Makedonia tabhala nawo.
Embarking in a ship from Adramyttium, which was about to sail to places on the coast of Asia, we put to sea; Aristarchus, a Macedonian of Thessalonica, being with us.
3 Isiku elya shandabho lwake tebhiha inaga hu Sidoni, u Julio abhombiye shinza uPaulo waruhusu abhale hwa Kilisti amwabho aje ayeje umusaada.
The next day, we landed at Sidon. Julius treated Paul kindly, and gave him permission to go to his friends and refresh himself.
4 Afume ipo tinjila mubahali, tazyungula eshisiwa sha hu Kipro shashazijile ihaala, maana ihaala ngosi.
Putting to sea from there, we sailed under the lee of Cyprus, because the winds were contrary.
5 Natalola huje tijendile muminzi gagali pipi nahu Kilikia na Pamfilia, tinza hu Mira, muji gwa Lisia.
When we had sailed across the sea which is off Cilicia and Pamphylia, we came to Myra, a city of Lycia.
6 Paala uafisa wikeya eye shi Roma, wa yaanga emeli yayanziwaga abhale hu Italia. Yehafumile hu Alexandria watinjizya umwo.
There the centurion found a ship of Alexandria sailing for Italy, and he put us on board.
7 Natalola huje tijendile hashehashe ensiku zinyinji, tafishile na malabha tee hu Kinidas, ihaala yahatiziga huje tisahendelele na shuule hwidala ilyo, tashuula munshinje ye Krete aizije ihaala, apalamane ne Salmone.
When we had sailed slowly many days, and had come with difficulty opposite Cnidus, the wind not allowing us further, we sailed under the lee of Crete, opposite Salmone.
8 Tashuulile munshinje ya pwani humalabha tee paka tahafiha pamo papahitwaga Fari Haveni yahapalamine ne muji gwa hu Lasi.
With difficulty sailing along it we came to a certain place called Fair Havens, near the city of Lasea.
9 Tashuulile ensiku nyinji tee, umufungo gwa Yahudi gwashilile, eshi yaahali hatari ahwendelele ashuule. U Paulo watisunda,
When much time had passed and the voyage was now dangerous, because the Fast had now already gone by, Paul admonished them,
10 waga, “Amwe bhalume, elola esafali ene hwatibhalila, eli shibhibhi siyo huje gamazigo ne meli zyene lelo na maisha getu gope.
and said to them, "Sirs, I perceive that the voyage will be with injury and much loss, not only of the cargo and the ship, but also of our lives."
11 Ula uafisa wikeya eyeshi Roma, umwene atejelezyaga umwanisho meli ila, ashile zyazyayangwaga nu Paulo.
But the centurion gave more heed to the master and to the owner of the ship than to those things which were spoken by Paul.
12 Ebandari yapaala seyalishinza akhale eshipindi eshisasa, bhaala abaharia bashauli bhaga, tishuule shisho tifishe hubandari ya hu Fionike, tikhale paala eshipindi eshisasa, ebandari iyo eli hu Krete, ihwenya nu kaskazini mashariki na hukusini mashariki.
Because the haven was not suitable to winter in, the majority advised going to sea from there, if by any means they could reach Phoenix, and winter there, which is a port of Crete, looking northeast and southeast.
13 Ihaala ya hu kusini ihanda avugule wolowolo abaharia bhagajibha bhapite shabhanzaga. Bhefwa engana tanda ashuule munshinji ye Krete apalamane ne pwani.
When the south wind blew softly, supposing that they had obtained their purpose, they weighed anchor and sailed along Crete, close to shore.
14 Natashuula hashe wene ihaala ehali yahanda avugule yehetwaga haala ye kaskazini mashariki ihatikhoma afume hwisyela lye shisiwa.
But before long, a stormy wind beat down from shore, which is called Euraquilo.
15 Emeli yetu nayapotwa alwe ne haala tenti titihana huje tibhalaje hwibhala ihaala ne meli.
When the ship was caught, and could not face the wind, we gave way to it, and were driven along.
16 Ihaala yatishimbizya afume uupande wishisiwa shashazigaga ihaala shashi hwitwa Kauda; taahokola itoli humalabha.
Running under the lee of a small island called Cauda, we were able, with difficulty, to secure the boat.
17 Nabhaikwesanga emeli ne nyabho, bhahogope huje bhasahabhale hwaguli usanga eshi bhihisya enanga.
After they had hoisted it up, they used cables to help reinforce the ship. Fearing that they would run aground on the Syrtis, they lowered the sea anchor, and so were driven along.
18 Edhoruba yahatikhomile tee, bhaala abaharia bhahande ataje amazigo afume mumeli esiku elyabhili.
As we labored exceedingly with the storm, the next day they began to throw things overboard.
19 Isiku elya tatu abaharia bhahanda ahwite aminzi na makhono gabho.
On the third day, they threw out the ship's tackle with their own hands.
20 Isanya ne ntondwe sigazyakhozizye edhoruba yahali halii tee tahwisuula huje eshi tibhala hufwe.
When neither sun nor stars shone on us for many days, and no small storm pressed on us, all hope that we would be saved was now taken away.
21 Pabhakhala tee muminzi bila shalye, u Paulo wabhabhuula huje mugantejelezizye ane panajile tisahasogole hu Krete, ega gonti handa siga gatajile ne mali ene handa sigatihuusile.
When they had been long without food, Paul stood up in the middle of them, and said, "Sirs, you should have listened to me, and not have set sail from Crete, and have gotten this injury and loss.
22 Eshi muzinde umwoyo nuumo umuntu yabhafwe, yemeli nyene ibhanajishe.
Now I exhort you to cheer up, for there will be no loss of life among you, but only of the ship.
23 Nu siku Ungulubhi atamile untumi wakwe unu Ungulubhi yehupuuta untumi wakwe ahumiliyo pashinji yaane
For there stood by me this night an angel, belonging to the God whose I am and whom I serve,
24 ajile, “Usahogope Paulo. Uhwanziwa ahwimilile hwa Kaisari, enya, ebha bhonti apiiye huje ushuule nabho.
saying, 'Do not be afraid, Paul. You must stand before Caesar. And look, God has granted you all those who sail with you.'
25 Eshi amwe bhalume jinjili umwoyo zyonti zibhabhe neshi shambuulile Ungulubhi.
Therefore, sirs, cheer up. For I believe God, that it will be just as it has been spoken to me.
26 Lelo tibhavwalale natibhashile huvisiwa.”
But we must run aground on a certain island."
27 Nawafiha usiku wilongo nazine, natazyungulaga ohu nu hwo mubhahari ye Adratik, nusiku wa pahati, abhabahana bhasibhile huje kabhanga tipalamiafishe hunsi enyomu.
But when the fourteenth night had come, as we were driven back and forth in the Adriatic Sea, about midnight the sailors surmised that they were drawing near to some land.
28 Bhapima idimine biligi bhazyaga emita amalongo gatatu ne tanda, tabhala hwitagalila hashe bhapima nantele bhazyaga emita amalongo gabhili na saba.
They took soundings, and found twenty fathoms. After a little while, they took soundings again, and found fifteen fathoms.
29 Bhahogope huje bhagabumizya emeli mwilyalawe, bhiisya enanga zine afume pabhahwisizya enanga, bhahalabhaga huje hushe nanali.
Fearing that we would run aground on rocky ground, they let go four anchors from the stern, and wished for daylight.
30 Bhaala abaharia bhahanzaga idala lya ileshe emeli, aje bhiisye utuboti utwa hwokolele abhantu, bhafwana huje bhalwa ahwisye enange hwitagalila lye tuboti.
As the sailors were trying to flee out of the ship, and had lowered the boat into the sea, pretending that they would lay out anchors from the bow,
31 U Paulo wabhabhuula asikari, “Huje siga mubhajiye ahwokoshe muhwanziwa asagale mwamumeli.”
Paul said to the centurion and to the soldiers, "Unless these stay in the ship, you cannot be saved."
32 Bhaala asikali bhadumula inyabho ezye boti, bhailaha ebhala na minzi.
Then the soldiers cut away the ropes of the boat, and let it fall off.
33 Shampwitu isanya nalitukula uPaulo wabhabhuula abhantu huje bhalye ishalye waga eli lisiku lya ilongo na zine nalye nkahamoo.
While the day was coming on, Paul urged them all to take some food, saying, "This day is the fourteenth day that you wait and continue fasting, having taken nothing.
34 Eshi eji ishaalye shishe mulye, aje musahafwe ane enjiga hata hasisi ha mwitwe lyanyu sigahabhateje.
Therefore I urge you to take some food, for this is for your preservation; for not a hair will perish from any of your heads."
35 U Paulo nawayanga wega ibumunda wamensula wapuutila wanda alye.
When he had said this, and had taken bread, he gave thanks to God in the presence of all, and he broke it, and began to eat.
36 Abhantu bonti bhasungwa bhope bhega ishalye.
Then they all cheered up, and they also took food.
37 Tahali abhantu emia zibhili na malongo saba, ni tanda 276 mu meli.
In all, we were two hundred seventy-six souls on the ship.
38 Nabhalye bhakuta bhatega engano muminzi, imeli ihabha mpoposu.
When they had eaten enough, they lightened the ship, throwing out the wheat into the sea.
39 Nahwasha, sigabhapaminye pabhahali bhailola ensi yeinjiye muminzi eli nu sanga gugwinji. Bhajadililana aje nkashele bhabhajilye ajenzye emeli aitwale pala.
When it was day, they did not recognize the land, but they noticed a certain bay with a beach, and they decided to try to drive the ship onto it.
40 Bhazilejezya enanga bhazileha mubahari. Umuda gwugwo bhazilejezya inyabho ezye tanga, bhabhusya hwitagalila ahwenyezye hwefuma ihaala, bhabhala hula hwaguli usanga gwugwinji.
Casting off the anchors, they left them in the sea, at the same time untying the rudder ropes. Hoisting up the foresail to the wind, they made for the beach.
41 Bhafiha pagatanganila amadila ge menze, emeli yabhala musanga yakwama(yamilia) yasinta ahwepe hwitagalila emeli yaande abudushe amawimbi gaali magosi.
But coming to a place where two seas met, they ran the vessel aground. The bow struck and remained immovable, but the stern began to break up by the violence of the waves.
42 Asikari bhaala bhaali nu mpango ugwabhabude afungwe bhonti aje bhasahatoloshe.
The soldiers' counsel was to kill the prisoners, so that none of them would swim out and escape.
43 Ula usikari weshi Roma ahanzaga humwokole uPaulo, wabhakhaana bhaala asikari nu mpango gwabo; na wabhabhuula abhantu huje yaminye ahwonjelele aluhanje afume mumeli ayojelelaje abhale hunsi inyomu.
But the centurion, desiring to save Paul, stopped them from their purpose, and commanded that those who could swim should throw themselves overboard first to go toward the land;
44 Esho alume bhamo bhabhafuate, bhamobhamo muvipande pa vintu evyenje evya mumeli natibhabhombe eshi tenti tibhapone, tibhafishe shinza hunsi inyomu.
and the rest should follow, some on planks, and some on other things from the ship. So it happened that they all escaped safely to the land.
