Çà 27:1 When it was decided that we would sail for Italy, Paul and
some other prisoners were handed over to a centurion named Julius, who
belonged to the Imperial Regiment.
Çà 27:2 We boarded a ship from Adramyttium about to sail for ports
along the coast of the province of Asia, and we put out to sea. Aristarchus,
a Macedonian from Thessalonica, was with us.
Çà 27:3 The next day we landed at Sidon; and Julius, in kindness to
Paul, allowed him to go to his friends so they migh t provide for his needs.
Çà 27:4 From there we put out to sea again and passed to the lee of
Cyprus because the winds were against us.
Çà 27:5 When we had sailed across the open sea off the coast of Cilicia
and Pamphylia, we landed at Myra in Lycia.
Çà 27:6 There the centurion found an Alexandrian ship sailing for Italy
and put us on board.
Çà 27:7 We made slow headway for many days and had difficulty arriving
off Cnidus. When the wind did not allow us to ho ld our course, we sailed
to the lee of Crete, opposite Salmone.
Çà 27:8 We moved along the coast with difficulty and came to a place
called Fair Havens, near the town of Lasea.

Çà 27:9 Much time had been lost, and sailing had already become dangerous
because by now it was after the Fast. So Paul warned them,
Çà 27:10 "Men, I can see that our voyage is going to be disastrous
and bring great loss to ship and cargo, and to our own lives also."
Çà 27:11 But the centurion, instead of listening to what Paul said,
followed the advice of the pilot and of the owner o f the ship.
Çà 27:12 Since the harbor was unsuitable to winter in, the majority
decided that we should sail on, hoping to reach Pho enix and winter there.
This was a harbor in Crete, facing both southwest and northwest.
Çà 27:13 When a gentle south wind began to blow, they thought they
had obtained what they wanted; so they weighed ancho r and sailed along
the shore of Crete.
Çà 27:14 Before very long, a wind of hurricane force, called the "northeaster,"
swept down from the island.
Çà 27:15 The ship was caught by the storm and could not head into the
wind; so we gave way to it and were driven along.
Çà 27:16 As we passed to the lee of a small island called Cauda, we
were hardly able to make the lifeboat secure.
Çà 27:17 When the men had hoisted it aboard, they passed ropes under
the ship itself to hold it together. Fearing that they would run aground
on the sandbars of Syrtis, they lowered the sea anchor and let the ship
be driven along.
Çà 27:18 We took such a violent battering from the storm that the next
day they began to throw the cargo overboard.
Çà 27:19 On the third day, they threw the ship's tackle overboard with
their own hands.
Çà 27:20 When neither sun nor stars appeared for many days and the
storm continued raging, we finally gave up all hope of being saved.
Çà 27:21 After the men had gone a long time without food, Paul stood
up before them and said: "Men, you should hav e taken my advice not to
sail from Crete; then you would have spared yourselves this damage and
loss.
Çà 27:22 But now I urge you to keep up your courage, because not one
of you will be lost; only the ship will be destroy ed.
Çà 27:23 Last night an angel of the God whose I am and whom I serve
stood beside me
Çà 27:24 and said, 'Do not be afraid, Paul. You must stand trial before
Caesar; and God has graciously given you the li ves of all who sail with
you.'
Çà 27:25 So keep up your courage, men, for I have faith in God that
it will happen just as he told me.
Çà 27:26 Nevertheless, we must run aground on some island."

Çà 27:27 On the fourteenth night we were still being driven across
the Adriatic Sea, when about midnight the sailors se nsed they were approaching
land.
Çà 27:28 They took soundings and found that the water was a hundred
and twenty feet deep. A short time later they took soundings again and
found it was ninety feet deep.
Çà 27:29 Fearing that we would be dashed against the rocks, they dropped
four anchors from the stern and prayed for day light.
Çà 27:30 In an attempt to escape from the ship, the sailors let the
lifeboat down into the sea, pretending they were go ing to lower some anchors
from the bow.
Çà 27:31 Then Paul said to the centurion and the soldiers, "Unless
these men stay with the ship, you cannot be sav ed."
Çà 27:32 So the soldiers cut the ropes that held the lifeboat and let
it fall away.
Çà 27:33 Just before dawn Paul urged them all to eat. "For the last
fourteen days," he said, "you have b een in constant suspense and have
gone without food--you haven't eaten anything.
Çà 27:34 Now I urge you to take some food. You need it to survive.
Not one of you will lose a single hair from his head ."
Çà 27:35 After he said this, he took some bread and gave thanks to
God in front of them all. Then he broke it and began to eat.
Çà 27:36 They were all encouraged and ate some food themselves.
Çà 27:37 Altogether there were 276 of us on board.
Çà 27:38 When they had eaten as much as they wanted, they lightened
the ship by throwing the grain into the sea.
Çà 27:39 When daylight came, they did not recognize the land, but they
saw a bay with a sandy beach, where they decided to run the ship aground
if they could.
Çà 27:40 Cutting loose the anchors, they left them in the sea and at
the same time untied the ropes that held the rudde rs. Then they hoisted
the foresail to the wind and made for the beach.
Çà 27:41 But the ship struck a sandbar and ran aground. The bow stuck
fast and would not move, and the stern was broken to pieces by the pounding
of the surf.
Çà 27:42 The soldiers planned to kill the prisoners to prevent any
of them from swimming away and escaping.
Çà 27:43 But the centurion wanted to spare Paul's life and kept them
from carrying out their plan. He ordered those who could swim to jump overboard
first and get to land.
Çà 27:44 The rest were to get there on planks or on pieces of the ship.
In this way everyone reached land in safety. |
