Actus Apostolorum 27

VULGATA	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 Ut autem judicatum est navigare eum in Italiam, et tradi Paulum cum reliquis custodiis centurioni nomine Julio cohortis Augustæ,	1 And when it was determined that we should sail into Italy, they delivered Paul and certain other prisoners unto one named Julius, a centurion of Augustus' band.
2 ascendentes navem Adrumetinam, incipientes navigare circa Asiæ loca, sustulimus, perseverante nobiscum Aristarcho Macedone Thessalonicensi.	2 And entering into a ship of Adramyttium, we launched, meaning to sail by the coasts of Asia; one Aristarchus, a Macedonian of Thessalonica, being with us.
3 Sequenti autem die devenimus Sidonem. Humane autem tractans Julius Paulum, permisit ad amicos ire, et curam sui agere.	3 And the next day we touched at Sidon. And Julius courteously entreated Paul, and gave him liberty to go unto his friends to refresh himself.
4 Et inde cum sustulissemus, subnavigavimus Cyprum, propterea quod essent venti contrarii.	4 And when we had launched from thence, we sailed under Cyprus, because the winds were contrary.
5 Et pelagus Ciliciæ et Pamphyliæ navigantes, venimus Lystram, quæ est Lyciæ :	5 And when we had sailed over the sea of Cilicia and Pamphylia, we came to Myra, a city of Lycia.
6 et ibi inveniens centurio navem Alexandrinam navigantem in Italiam, transposuit nos in eam.	6 And there the centurion found a ship of Alexandria sailing into Italy; and he put us therein.
7 Et cum multis diebus tarde navigaremus, et vix devenissemus contra Gnidum, prohibente nos vento, adnavigavimus Cretæ juxta Salmonem :	7 And when we had sailed slowly many days, and scarce were come over against Cnidus, the wind not suffering us, we sailed under Crete, over against Salmone;
8 et vix juxta navigantes, venimus in locum quemdam qui vocatur Boniportus, cui juxta erat civitas Thalassa.	8 And, hardly passing it, came unto a place which is called The fair havens; nigh whereunto was the city of Lasea.
9 Multo autem tempore peracto, et cum jam non esset tuta navigatio eo quod et jejunium jam præteriisset, consolabatur eos Paulus,	9 Now when much time was spent, and when sailing was now dangerous, because the fast was now already past, Paul admonished them,
10 dicens eis : Viri, video quoniam cum injuria et multo damno non solum oneris, et navis, sed etiam animarum nostrarum incipit esse navigatio.	10 And said unto them, Sirs, I perceive that this voyage will be with hurt and much damage, not only of the lading and ship, but also of our lives.
11 Centurio autem gubernatori et nauclero magis credebat, quam his quæ a Paulo dicebantur.	11 Nevertheless the centurion believed the master and the owner of the ship, more than those things which were spoken by Paul.
12 Et cum aptus portus non esset ad hiemandum, plurimi statuerunt consilium navigare inde, si quomodo possent, devenientes Phœnicen hiemare, portum Cretæ respicientem ad Africum et ad Corum.	12 And because the haven was not commodious to winter in, the more part advised to depart thence also, if by any means they might attain to Phenice, and there to winter; which is an haven of Crete, and lieth toward the south west and north west.
13 Aspirante autem austro, æstimantes propositum se tenere, cum sustulissent de Asson, legebant Cretam.	13 And when the south wind blew softly, supposing that they had obtained their purpose, loosing thence, they sailed close by Crete.
14 Non post multum autem misit se contra ipsam ventus typhonicus, qui vocatur Euroaquilo.	14 But not long after there arose against it a tempestuous wind, called Euroclydon.
15 Cumque arrepta esset navis, et non posset conari in ventum, data nave flatibus, ferebamur.	15 And when the ship was caught, and could not bear up into the wind, we let her drive.
16 In insulam autem quamdam decurrentes, quæ vocatur Cauda, potuimus vix obtinere scapham.	16 And running under a certain island which is called Clauda, we had much work to come by the boat:
17 Qua sublata, adjutoriis utebantur, accingentes navem, timentes ne in Syrtim inciderent, summisso vase sic ferebantur.	17 Which when they had taken up, they used helps, undergirding the ship; and, fearing lest they should fall into the quicksands, strake sail, and so were driven.
18 Valida autem nobis tempestate jactatis, sequenti die jactum fecerunt :	18 And we being exceedingly tossed with a tempest, the next day they lightened the ship;
19 et tertia die suis manibus armamenta navis projecerunt.	19 And the third day we cast out with our own hands the tackling of the ship.
20 Neque autem sole, neque sideribus apparentibus per plures dies, et tempestate non exigua imminente, jam ablata erat spes omnis salutis nostræ.	20 And when neither sun nor stars in many days appeared, and no small tempest lay on us, all hope that we should be saved was then taken away.
21 Et cum multa jejunatio fuisset, tunc stans Paulus in medio eorum, dixit : Oportebat quidem, o viri, audito me, non tollere a Creta, lucrique facere injuriam hanc et jacturam.	21 But after long abstinence Paul stood forth in the midst of them, and said, Sirs, ye should have hearkened unto me, and not have loosed from Crete, and to have gained this harm and loss.
22 Et nunc suadeo vobis bono animo esse : amissio enim nullius animæ erit ex vobis, præterquam navis.	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 of the ship.
23 Astitit enim mihi hac nocte angelus Dei, cujus sum ego, et cui deservio,	23 For there stood by me this night the angel of God, whose I am, and whom I serve,
24 dicens : Ne timeas, Paule : Cæsari te oportet assistere : et ecce donavit tibi Deus omnes qui navigant tecum.	24 Saying, Fear not, Paul; thou must be brought before Caesar: and, lo, God hath given thee all them that sail with thee.
25 Propter quod bono animo estote, viri : credo enim Deo quia sic erit, quemadmodum dictum est mihi.	25 Wherefore, sirs, be of good cheer: for I believe God, that it shall be even as it was told me.
26 In insulam autem quamdam oportet nos devenire.	26 Howbeit we must be cast upon a certain island.
27 Sed posteaquam quartadecima nox supervenit, navigantibus nobis in Adria circa mediam noctem, suspicabantur nautæ apparere sibi aliquam regionem.	27 But when the fourteenth night was come, as we were driven up and down in Adria, about midnight the shipmen deemed that they drew near to some country;
28 Qui et summittentes bolidem, invenerunt passus viginti : et pusillum inde separati, invenerunt passus quindecim.	28 And sounded, and found it twenty fathoms: and when they had gone a little further, they sounded again, and found it fifteen fathoms.
29 Timentes autem ne in aspera loca incideremus, de puppi mittentes anchoras quatuor, optabant diem fieri.	29 Then fearing lest we should have fallen upon rocks, they cast four anchors out of the stern, and wished for the day.
30 Nautis vero quærentibus fugere de navi, cum misissent scapham in mare, sub obtentu quasi inciperent a prora anchoras extendere,	30 And as the shipmen were about to flee out of the ship, when they had let down the boat into the sea, under colour as though they would have cast anchors out of the foreship,
31 dixit Paulus centurioni et militibus : Nisi hi in navi manserint, vos salvi fieri non potestis.	31 Paul said to the centurion and to the soldiers, Except these abide in the ship, ye cannot be saved.
32 Tunc absciderunt milites funes scaphæ, et passi sunt eam excidere.	32 Then the soldiers cut off the ropes of the boat, and let her fall off.
33 Et cum lux inciperet fieri, rogabat Paulus omnes sumere cibum, dicens : Quartadecima die hodie exspectantes jejuni permanetis, nihil accipientes.	33 And while the day was coming on, Paul besought them all to take meat, saying, This day is the fourteenth day that ye have tarried and continued fasting, having taken nothing.
34 Propter quod rogo vos accipere cibum pro salute vestra : quia nullius vestrum capillus de capite peribit.	34 Wherefore I pray you to take some meat: for this is for your health: for there shall not an hair fall from the head of any of you.
35 Et cum hæc dixisset, sumens panem, gratias egit Deo in conspectu omnium : et cum fregisset, cœpit manducare.	35 And when he had thus spoken, he took bread, and gave thanks to God in presence of them all: and when he had broken it, he began to eat.
36 Animæquiores autem facti omnes, et ipsi sumpserunt cibum.	36 Then were they all of good cheer, and they also took some meat.
37 Eramus vero universæ animæ in navi ducentæ septuaginta sex.	37 And we were in all in the ship two hundred threescore and sixteen souls.
38 Et satiati cibo alleviabant navem, jactantes triticum in mare.	38 And when they had eaten enough, they lightened the ship, and cast out the wheat into the sea.
39 Cum autem dies factus esset, terram non agnoscebant : sinum vero quemdam considerabant habentem littus, in quem cogitabant si possent ejicere navem.	39 And when it was day, they knew not the land: but they discovered a certain creek with a shore, into the which they were minded, if it were possible, to thrust in the ship.
40 Et cum anchoras sustulissent, committebant se mari, simul laxantes juncturas gubernaculorum : et levato artemone secundum auræ flatum, tendebant ad littus.	40 And when they had taken up the anchors, they committed themselves unto the sea, and loosed the rudder bands, and hoised up the mainsail to the wind, and made toward shore.
41 Et cum incidissemus in locum dithalassum, impegerunt navem : et prora quidem fixa manebat immobilis, puppis vero solvebatur a vi maris.	41 And falling into a place where two seas met, they ran the ship aground; and the forepart stuck fast, and remained unmoveable, but the hinder part was broken with the violence of the waves.
42 Militum autem consilium fuit ut custodias occiderent, ne quis cum enatasset, effugeret.	42 And the soldiers' counsel was to kill the prisoners, lest any of them should swim out, and escape.
43 Centurio autem volens servare Paulum, prohibuit fieri : jussitque eos qui possent natare, emittere se primos, et evadere, et ad terram exire :	43 But the centurion, willing to save Paul, kept them from their purpose; and commanded that they which could swim should cast themselves first into the sea, and get to land:
44 et ceteros, alios in tabulis ferebant, quosdam super ea quæ de navi erant. Et sic factum est, ut omnes animæ evaderent ad terram.	44 And the rest, some on boards, and some on broken pieces of the ship. And so it came to pass, that they escaped all safe to land.
