Acts of the Apostles 27

DOUAI-RHEIMS	Peshitta
1 And when it was determined that he should sail into Italy, and that Paul, with the other prisoners, should be delivered to a centurion, named Julius, of the band Augusta,	1 ܘܦܩܕ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܦܗܤܛܤ ܕܢܫܬܕܪ ܠܘܬ ܩܤܪ ܠܐܝܛܠܝܐ ܘܐܫܠܡܗ ܠܦܘܠܘܤ ܘܠܐܤܝܪܐ ܐܚܪܢܐ ܥܡܗ ܠܓܒܪܐ ܚܕ ܩܢܛܪܘܢܐ ܡܢ ܐܤܦܝܪ ܤܒܤܛܐ ܕܫܡܗ ܗܘܐ ܝܘܠܝܘܤ ܀
2 Going on board a ship of Adrumetum, we launched, meaning to sail by the coasts of Asia, Aristarchus, the Macedonian of Thessalonica, continuing with us.	2 ܘܟܕ ܗܘܬ ܕܢܪܕܐ ܢܚܬܢ ܠܐܠܦܐ ܕܐܝܬܝܗ ܗܘܬ ܡܢ ܐܕܪܡܢܛܘܤ ܡܕܝܢܬܐ ܘܐܙܠܐ ܗܘܬ ܠܐܬܪܐ ܕܐܤܝܐ ܘܥܠ ܗܘܐ ܥܡܢ ܠܐܠܦܐ ܐܪܤܛܪܟܘܤ ܡܩܕܘܢܝܐ ܕܡܢ ܬܤܠܘܢܝܩܐ ܡܕܝܢܬܐ ܀
3 And the day following we came to Sidon. And Julius treating Paul courteously, permitted him to go to his friends, and to take care of himself.	3 ܘܠܝܘܡܐ ܐܚܪܢܐ ܡܛܝܢ ܠܨܝܕܢ ܘܐܬܚܫܚ ܩܢܛܪܘܢܐ ܒܡܪܚܡܢܘܬܐ ܠܘܬ ܦܘܠܘܤ ܘܐܦܤ ܠܗ ܕܢܐܙܠ ܠܘܬ ܪܚܡܘܗܝ ܘܢܬܬܢܝܚ ܀
4 And when we had launched from thence, we sailed under Cyprus, because the winds were contrary.	4 ܘܡܢ ܬܡܢ ܪܕܝܢ ܘܡܛܠ ܕܪܘܚܐ ܤܩܘܒܠܢ ܗܘܝ ܐܬܟܪܟܢ ܥܠ ܩܘܦܪܘܤ ܀
5 And sailing over the sea of Cilicia, and Pamphylia, we came to Lystra, which is in Lycia:	5 ܘܥܒܪܢ ܝܡܐ ܕܩܝܠܝܩܝܐ ܘܕܦܡܦܘܠܝܐ ܘܡܛܝܢ ܠܡܘܪܐ ܡܕܝܢܬܐ ܕܠܘܩܝܐ ܀
6 And there the centurion finding a ship of Alexandria sailing into Italy, removed us into it.	6 ܘܐܫܟܚ ܬܡܢ ܩܢܛܪܘܢܐ ܐܠܦܐ ܡܢ ܐܠܟܤܢܕܪܝܐ ܕܐܙܠܐ ܗܘܬ ܠܐܝܛܠܝܐ ܘܐܘܬܒܢ ܒܗ ܀
7 And when for many days we had sailed slowly, and were scarce come over against Gnidus, the wind not suffering us, we sailed near Crete by Salmone:	7 ܘܡܛܠ ܕܝܩܝܪܐܝܬ ܪܕܝܐ ܗܘܬ ܠܝܘܡܬܐ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܠܡܚܤܢ ܡܛܝܢ ܠܘܩܒܠ ܩܢܝܕܘܤ ܓܙܪܬܐ ܘܡܛܠ ܕܠܐ ܫܒܩܐ ܗܘܬ ܪܘܚܐ ܕܢܐܙܠ ܬܪܝܨܐܝܬ ܐܬܟܪܟܢ ܥܠ ܩܪܛܐ ܠܘܩܒܠ ܤܠܡܘܢܐ ܡܕܝܢܬܐ ܀
8 And with much ado sailing by it, we came into a certain place, which is called Good-havens, nigh to which was the city of Thalassa.	8 ܘܠܡܚܤܢ ܟܕ ܪܕܝܢܢ ܚܕܪܝܗ ܡܛܝܢ ܠܕܘܟܬܐ ܕܡܬܩܪܝܐ ܠܡܐܢܐ ܫܦܝܪܐ ܘܩܪܝܒܐ ܗܘܬ ܠܗ ܡܕܝܢܬܐ ܕܫܡܗ ܠܐܤܐܐ ܀
9 And when much time was spent, and when sailing now was dangerous, because the fast was now past, Paul comforted them,	9 ܘܗܘܝܢ ܬܡܢ ܙܒܢܐ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܥܕܡܐ ܕܥܒܪ ܐܦ ܝܘܡܐ ܕܨܘܡܐ ܕܝܗܘܕܝܐ ܘܗܘܐ ܠܗ ܩܢܛܐ ܕܢܪܕܐ ܐܢܫ ܒܝܡܐ ܘܡܠܟ ܗܘܐ ܠܗܘܢ ܦܘܠܘܤ ܀
10 Saying to them: Ye men, I see that the voyage beginneth to be with injury and much damage, not only of the lading and ship, but also of our lives.	10 ܘܐܡܪ ܓܒܪܐ ܚܙܐ ܐܢܐ ܕܒܐܘܠܨܢܐ ܘܒܚܘܤܪܢܐ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܗܘܝܐ ܡܪܕܝܬܢ ܠܘ ܒܠܚܘܕ ܕܡܘܒܠܗ ܕܐܠܦܢ ܐܠܐ ܐܦ ܕܢܦܫܬܢ ܕܝܠܢ ܀
11 But the centurion believed the pilot and the master of the ship, more than those things which were said by Paul.	11 ܩܢܛܪܘܢܐ ܕܝܢ ܠܩܘܒܪܢܛܐ ܘܠܡܪܗ ܕܐܠܦܐ ܫܡܥ ܗܘܐ ܝܬܝܪ ܡܢ ܡܠܘܗܝ ܕܦܘܠܘܤ ܀
12 And whereas it was not a commodious haven to winter in, the greatest part gave counsel to sail thence, if by any means they might reach Phenice to winter there, which is a haven of Crete, looking towards the southwest and northwest.	12 ܘܡܛܠ ܕܠܐ ܥܗܢ ܗܘܐ ܗܘ ܠܡܐܢܐ ܠܡܤܬܝܘ ܒܗ ܤܬܘܐ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܡܢܢ ܨܒܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܕܢܪܕܐ ܡܢ ܬܡܢ ܘܐܢܗܘ ܕܡܫܟܚܝܢ ܕܢܡܢܥܘܢ ܘܢܤܬܘܢ ܒܠܡܐܢܐ ܚܕ ܕܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܗܘܐ ܒܩܪܛܐ ܘܡܬܩܪܐ ܗܘܐ ܦܘܢܟܤ ܘܚܐܪ ܗܘܐ ܠܬܝܡܢܐ ܀
13 And the south wind gently blowing, thinking that they had obtained their purpose, when they had loosed from Asson, they sailed close by Crete.	13 ܘܟܕ ܢܫܒܬ ܪܘܚܐ ܕܬܝܡܢܐ ܘܤܒܪܘ ܕܡܡܛܝܢ ܐܝܟ ܨܒܝܢܗܘܢ ܪܕܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܚܕܪܝ ܩܪܛܐ ܀
14 But not long after, there arose against it a tempestuous wind, called Euroaquilo.	14 ܘܡܢ ܒܬܪ ܩܠܝܠ ܢܦܩ ܥܠܝܢ ܡܫܒܐ ܕܥܠܥܠܐ ܕܡܬܩܪܐ ܛܘܦܢܝܩܘܤ ܐܘܪܩܠܝܕܘܢ ܀
15 And when the ship was caught, and could not bear up against the wind, giving up the ship to the winds, we were driven.	15 ܘܐܬܚܛܦܬ ܐܠܦܐ ܘܠܐ ܐܫܟܚܬ ܕܬܩܘܡ ܠܘܩܒܠ ܪܘܚܐ ܘܝܗܒܢ ܠܐܝܕܐ ܕܗܝ ܀
16 And running under a certain island, that is called Cauda, we had much work to come by the boat.	16 ܘܟܕ ܥܒܪܢ ܓܙܪܬܐ ܚܕܐ ܕܡܬܩܪܝܐ ܩܘܕܐ ܠܡܚܤܢ ܐܫܟܚܢ ܐܚܕܢ ܠܩܪܩܘܪܐ ܀
17 Which being taken up, they used helps, undergirding the ship, and fearing lest they should fall into the quicksands, they let down the sail yard, and so were driven.	17 ܘܟܕ ܫܩܠܢܗ ܡܚܝܨܝܢ ܗܘܝܢ ܘܡܬܩܢܝܢ ܠܗ ܠܐܠܦܐ ܘܡܛܠ ܕܕܚܠܝܢ ܗܘܝܢ ܕܕܠܡܐ ܢܦܠ ܒܡܚܬܬܗ ܕܝܡܐ ܐܚܬܢܝܗܝ ܠܐܪܡܢܘܢ ܘܗܟܘܬ ܪܕܝܢ ܗܘܝܢ ܀
18 And we being mightily tossed with the tempest, the next day they lightened the ship.	18 ܘܟܕ ܩܡ ܠܗ ܥܠܝܢ ܟܝܡܘܢܐ ܩܫܝܐ ܠܝܘܡܐ ܐܚܪܢܐ ܫܕܝܢ ܡܐܢܝܢ ܒܝܡܐ ܀
19 And the third day they cast out with their own hands the tackling of the ship.	19 ܘܠܝܘܡܐ ܕܬܠܬܐ ܡܐܢܐ ܕܝܠܗ ܕܐܠܦܐ ܒܐܝܕܝܢ ܫܕܝܢ ܀
20 And when neither sun nor stars appeared for many days, and no small storm lay on us, all hope of our being saved was now taken away.	20 ܘܟܕ ܐܚܕ ܠܗ ܤܬܘܐ ܝܘܡܬܐ ܝܬܝܪܐ ܘܠܐ ܫܡܫܐ ܡܬܚܙܐ ܗܘܐ ܘܠܐ ܤܗܪܐ ܘܠܐ ܟܘܟܒܐ ܤܒܪܐ ܕܚܝܝܢ ܟܠ ܟܠܗ ܐܬܦܤܩ ܗܘܐ ܠܗ ܀
21 And after they had fasted a long time, Paul standing forth in the midst of them, said: You should indeed, O ye men, have hearkened unto me, and not have loosed from Crete, and have gained this harm and loss.	21 ܘܟܕ ܐܢܫ ܡܕܡ ܠܐ ܡܤܬܝܒܪ ܗܘܐ ܗܝܕܝܢ ܩܡ ܦܘܠܘܤ ܒܝܢܬܗܘܢ ܘܐܡܪ ܐܠܘ ܐܬܛܦܝܤܬܘܢ ܠܝ ܓܒܪܐ ܠܐ ܪܕܝܢ ܗܘܝܢ ܡܢ ܩܪܛܐ ܘܡܬܚܤܟܝܢ ܗܘܝܢ ܡܢ ܚܘܤܪܢܐ ܘܡܢ ܐܘܠܨܢܐ ܗܢܐ ܀
22 And now I exhort you to be of good cheer. For there shall be no loss of any man's life among you, but only of the ship.	22 ܘܗܫܐ ܡܠܟ ܐܢܐ ܕܬܗܘܘܢ ܕܠܐ ܥܩܐ ܢܦܫܐ ܓܝܪ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܚܕܐ ܠܐ ܐܒܕܐ ܐܠܐ ܐܢ ܐܠܦܐ ܀
23 For an angel of God, whose I am, and whom I serve, stood by me this night,	23 ܐܬܚܙܝ ܠܝ ܓܝܪ ܒܠܠܝܐ ܗܢܐ ܡܠܐܟܗ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܗܘ ܕܕܝܠܗ ܐܢܐ ܘܠܗ ܦܠܚ ܐܢܐ ܀
24 Saying: Fear not, Paul, thou must be brought before Caesar; and behold, God hath given thee all them that sail with thee.	24 ܘܐܡܪ ܠܝ ܠܐ ܬܕܚܠ ܦܘܠܐ ܥܬܝܕ ܗܘ ܠܟ ܠܡܩܡ ܩܕܡ ܩܤܪ ܘܗܐ ܝܗܒ ܠܟ ܐܠܗܐ ܡܘܗܒܬܐ ܠܟܠ ܕܪܕܝܢ ܥܡܟ ܀
25 Wherefore, sirs, be of good cheer; for I believe God that it shall so be, as it hath been told me.	25 ܡܛܠ ܗܢܐ ܐܬܠܒܒܘ ܓܒܪܐ ܡܗܝܡܢ ܐܢܐ ܓܝܪ ܒܐܠܗܐ ܕܗܟܢܐ ܗܘܐ ܐܝܟ ܡܐ ܕܐܬܡܠܠ ܥܡܝ ܀
26 And we must come unto a certain island.	26 ܒܪܡ ܠܓܙܪܬܐ ܚܕܐ ܐܝܬ ܠܢ ܕܢܫܬܕܐ ܀
27 But after the fourteenth night was come, as we were sailing in Adria, about midnight, the shipmen deemed that they discovered some country.	27 ܘܡܢ ܒܬܪ ܐܪܒܬܥܤܪ ܝܘܡܝܢ ܕܛܥܝܢ ܘܐܬܛܪܦܢ ܒܗܕܪܝܘܤ ܝܡܐ ܒܦܠܓܗ ܕܠܠܝܐ ܤܒܪܘ ܡܠܚܐ ܕܠܐܪܥܐ ܡܬܩܪܒܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܀
28 Who also sounding, found twenty fathoms; and going on a little further, they found fifteen fathoms.	28 ܘܐܪܡܝܘ ܐܘܩܝܢܤ ܘܐܫܟܚܘ ܩܘܡܝܢ ܥܤܪܝܢ ܘܬܘܒ ܩܠܝܠ ܪܕܘ ܘܐܫܟܚܘ ܩܘܡܝܢ ܚܡܫܥܤܪܐ ܀
29 Then fearing lest we should fall upon rough places, they cast four anchors out of the stern, and wished for the day.	29 ܘܟܕ ܕܚܝܠܝܢ ܗܘܝܢ ܕܠܡܐ ܢܫܬܟܚ ܠܢ ܒܕܘܟܝܬܐ ܕܐܝܬ ܒܗܝܢ ܫܘܥܐ ܐܪܡܝܘ ܡܢ ܚܪܬܗ ܕܐܠܦܐ ܐܘܩܝܢܤ ܐܪܒܥ ܘܡܨܠܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܕܢܗܘܐ ܝܘܡܐ ܀
30 But as the shipmen sought to fly out of the ship, having let down the boat into the sea, under colour, as though they would have cast anchors out of the forepart of the ship,	30 ܡܠܚܐ ܕܝܢ ܒܥܘ ܠܡܥܪܩ ܡܢܗ ܡܢ ܐܠܦܐ ܘܐܚܬܘ ܡܢܗ ܠܩܪܩܘܪܐ ܠܝܡܐ ܒܥܠܬܐ ܕܢܐܙܠܘܢ ܒܗ ܘܢܐܤܪܘܢܗ ܠܐܠܦܐ ܒܐܪܥܐ ܀
31 Paul said to the centurion, and to the soldiers: Except these stay in the ship, you cannot be saved.	31 ܘܟܕ ܚܙܐ ܦܘܠܘܤ ܐܡܪ ܠܩܢܛܪܘܢܐ ܘܠܐܤܛܪܛܝܘܛܐ ܕܐܢ ܗܠܝܢ ܒܐܠܦܐ ܠܐ ܡܟܬܪܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܠܐ ܡܫܟܚܝܢ ܐܢܬܘܢ ܕܬܚܘܢ ܀
32 Then the soldiers cut off the ropes of the boat, and let her fall off.	32 ܗܝܕܝܢ ܦܤܩܘ ܐܤܛܪܛܝܘܛܐ ܠܚܒܠܝܗ ܕܩܪܩܘܪܐ ܡܢ ܐܠܦܐ ܘܫܒܩܘܗ ܛܥܝܐ ܀
33 And when it began to be light, Paul besought them all to take meat, saying: This day is the fourteenth day that you have waited, and continued fasting, taking nothing.	33 ܗܘ ܕܝܢ ܦܘܠܘܤ ܥܕܡܐ ܕܗܘܐ ܨܦܪܐ ܡܦܝܤ ܗܘܐ ܠܟܠܗܘܢ ܕܢܩܒܠܘܢ ܤܝܒܪܬܐ ܟܕ ܐܡܪ ܠܗܘܢ ܝܘܡܢܐ ܗܐ ܐܪܒܬܥܤܪ ܝܘܡܝܢ ܡܢ ܩܢܛܐ ܡܕܡ ܠܐ ܛܥܝܡ ܠܟܘܢ ܀
34 Wherefore I pray you to take some meat for your health's sake; for there shall not an hair of the head of any of you perish.	34 ܡܛܠ ܗܕܐ ܒܥܐ ܐܢܐ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܕܬܩܒܠܘܢ ܡܐܟܘܠܬܐ ܠܩܘܝܡܐ ܕܚܝܝܟܘܢ ܡܢܬܐ ܓܝܪ ܡܢ ܪܫܐ ܕܚܕ ܡܢܟܘܢ ܠܐ ܐܒܕܐ ܀
35 And when he had said these things, taking bread, he gave thanks to God in the sight of them all; and when he had broken it, he began to eat.	35 ܘܟܕ ܗܠܝܢ ܐܡܪ ܢܤܒ ܠܚܡܐ ܘܫܒܚ ܠܐܠܗܐ ܩܕܡ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܘܩܨܐ ܘܐܩܦ ܠܡܐܟܠ ܀
36 Then were they all of better cheer, and they also took some meat.	36 ܘܐܬܒܝܐܘ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܘܩܒܠܘ ܬܘܪܤܝܐ ܀
37 And we were in all in the ship, two hundred threescore and sixteen souls.	37 ܐܝܬܝܢ ܗܘܝܢ ܕܝܢ ܒܐܠܦܐ ܡܐܬܝܢ ܘܫܒܥܝܢ ܘܫܬ ܢܦܫܢ ܀
38 And when they had eaten enough, they lightened the ship, casting the wheat into the sea.	38 ܘܟܕ ܤܒܥܘ ܡܐܟܘܠܬܐ ܐܩܠܘ ܡܢ ܐܠܦܐ ܘܫܩܠܘ ܚܛܐ ܘܫܕܘ ܒܝܡܐ ܀
39 And when it was day, they knew not the land; but they discovered a certain creek that had a shore, into which they minded, if they could, to thrust in the ship.	39 ܘܟܕ ܗܘܐ ܝܘܡܐ ܤܦܢܐ ܐܝܕܐ ܗܝ ܐܪܥܐ ܠܐ ܐܫܬܘܕܥܘ ܐܠܐ ܚܪܘ ܥܠ ܓܢܒ ܝܒܫܐ ܟܢܦܐ ܚܕܐ ܕܝܡܐ ܐܝܟܐ ܕܪܢܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܕܐܢ ܡܫܟܚܐ ܢܕܚܘܢܗ ܠܐܠܦܐ ܀
40 And when they had taken up the anchors, they committed themselves to the sea, loosing withal the rudder bands; and hoisting up the mainsail to the wind, they made towards shore.	40 ܘܦܤܩܘ ܐܘܩܝܢܤ ܡܢ ܐܠܦܐ ܘܐܪܦܝܘ ܐܢܝܢ ܒܝܡܐ ܘܫܪܘ ܪܟܒܐ ܕܤܘܟܢܐ ܘܬܠܘ ܐܪܡܢܘܢ ܙܥܘܪܐ ܠܪܘܚܐ ܕܢܫܒܐ ܘܪܕܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܠܐܦܝ ܝܒܫܐ ܀
41 And when we were fallen into a place where two seas met, they run the ship aground; and the forepart indeed, sticking fast, remained unmoveable: but the hinder part was broken with the violence of the sea.	41 ܘܓܫܬ ܐܠܦܐ ܒܕܘܟܬܐ ܕܪܡܐ ܒܝܢܬ ܬܪܝܢ ܥܘܡܩܝܢ ܕܝܡܐ ܘܐܬܚܪܝܬ ܒܗ ܘܩܡ ܥܠܝܗ ܓܒܗ ܩܕܡܝܐ ܘܠܐ ܡܬܬܙܝܥ ܗܘܐ ܓܒܗ ܕܝܢ ܐܚܪܝܐ ܐܫܬܪܝ ܡܢ ܩܛܝܪܐ ܕܓܠܠܐ ܀
42 And the soldiers' counsel was, that they should kill the prisoners, lest any of them, swimming out, should escape.	42 ܘܨܒܘ ܗܘܘ ܐܤܛܪܛܝܘܛܐ ܕܢܩܛܠܘܢ ܐܢܘܢ ܠܐܤܝܪܐ ܕܠܐ ܢܪܡܘܢ ܤܚܘܐ ܘܢܥܪܩܘܢ ܠܗܘܢ ܡܢܗܘܢ ܀
43 But the centurion, willing to save Paul, forbade it to be done; and he commanded that they who could swim, should cast themselves first into the sea, and save themselves, and get to land.	43 ܘܩܢܛܪܘܢܐ ܟܠܐ ܐܢܘܢ ܡܢ ܗܕܐ ܡܛܠ ܕܨܒܐ ܗܘܐ ܕܢܚܐ ܠܦܘܠܘܤ ܘܠܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܡܫܟܚܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܠܡܪܡܝܘ ܤܚܘܐ ܦܩܕ ܠܗܘܢ ܕܒܩܕܡܝܐ ܢܤܚܘܢ ܘܢܥܒܪܘܢ ܠܐܪܥܐ ܀
44 And the rest, some they carried on boards, and some on those things that belonged to the ship. And so it came to pass, that every soul got safe to land.	44 ܘܠܫܪܟܐ ܥܠ ܕܦܐ ܘܥܠ ܩܝܤܐ ܐܚܪܢܐ ܕܐܠܦܐ ܐܥܒܪܘ ܐܢܘܢ ܘܗܟܢܐ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܐܫܬܘܙܒܘ ܠܐܪܥܐ ܀
