1Toe daar besluit is dat ons na Italië moes afvaar, het hulle Paulus en sommige ander gevangenes oorgegee aan 'n hoofman oor honderd met die naam Julius, van die keiserlike kohort.

Letterlik: die Augustus-kohort.

Ὡς δὲ ἐκρίθη τοῦ ἀποπλεῖν ἡμᾶς εἰς τὴν Ἰταλίαν, παρεδίδουν τόν τε Παῦλον καί τινας ἑτέρους δεσμώτας ἑκατοντάρχῃ ὀνόματι Ἰουλίῳ σπείρης Σεβαστῆς.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. 2Ons het aan boord gegaan van 'n skip van Adramittium wat na die plekke langs Asië sou vaar, en in see gesteek, terwyl Aristargus, 'n Masedoniër van Tessalonika, by ons was.ἐπιβάντες δὲ πλοίῳ Ἀδραμυττηνῷ ⸀μέλλοντι πλεῖν ⸀εἰς τοὺς κατὰ τὴν Ἀσίαν τόπους ἀνήχθημεν ὄντος σὺν ἡμῖν Ἀριστάρχου Μακεδόνος Θεσσαλονικέως·We boarded an Adramyttian ship about to sail for ports along the coast of Asia, and we put out to sea. Aristarchus, a Macedonian from Thessalonica, was with us. 3Die volgende dag het ons by Sidon aangekom, en Julius het Paulus vriendelik behandel en hom toegelaat om na sy vriende te gaan om versorging te ontvang.τῇ τε ἑτέρᾳ κατήχθημεν εἰς Σιδῶνα, φιλανθρώπως τε ὁ Ἰούλιος τῷ Παύλῳ χρησάμενος ἐπέτρεψεν πρὸς τοὺς φίλους ⸀πορευθέντι ἐπιμελείας τυχεῖν.The next day we landed at Sidon, and Julius treated Paul with consideration, allowing him to visit his friends and receive their care. 4Van daar het ons in see gesteek en in die luwte van Siprus gevaar, omdat die winde teen ons was,

Letterlik: onder Siprus langs gevaar.

κἀκεῖθεν ἀναχθέντες ὑπεπλεύσαμεν τὴν Κύπρον διὰ τὸ τοὺς ἀνέμους εἶναι ἐναντίους,After putting out from there, we sailed to the lee of Cyprus because the winds were against us. 5en nadat ons die oop see langs Silisië en Pamfilië deurgevaar het, het ons by Mira in Lisië aangekom.τό τε πέλαγος τὸ κατὰ τὴν Κιλικίαν καὶ Παμφυλίαν διαπλεύσαντες κατήλθομεν εἰς Μύρα τῆς Λυκίας.And when we had sailed across the open sea off the coast of Cilicia and Pamphylia, we came to Myra in Lycia. 6Daar het die honderdman 'n Aleksandrynse skip gevind wat na Italië vaar, en hy het ons daarin laat klim.κἀκεῖ εὑρὼν ὁ ⸀ἑκατοντάρχης πλοῖον Ἀλεξανδρῖνον πλέον εἰς τὴν Ἰταλίαν ἐνεβίβασεν ἡμᾶς εἰς αὐτό.There the centurion found an Alexandrian ship sailing for Italy and put us on board. 7Vir etlike dae het ons stadig gevaar en met moeite ter hoogte van Knidus gekom. Omdat die wind ons nie nader laat kom het nie, het ons onderlangs Kreta gevaar, by Salmone.ἐν ἱκαναῖς δὲ ἡμέραις βραδυπλοοῦντες καὶ μόλις γενόμενοι κατὰ τὴν Κνίδον, μὴ προσεῶντος ἡμᾶς τοῦ ἀνέμου, ὑπεπλεύσαμεν τὴν Κρήτην κατὰ Σαλμώνην,After sailing slowly for many days, we arrived off Cnidus. When the wind impeded us, we sailed to the lee of Crete, opposite Salmone. 8en met moeite daarlangs gevaar en by 'n plek gekom wat Kaloi Limenes genoem word, waar naby die stad Lasea was.

Die naam beteken Goeie Hawens.

μόλις τε παραλεγόμενοι αὐτὴν ἤλθομεν εἰς τόπον τινὰ καλούμενον Καλοὺς Λιμένας ᾧ ἐγγὺς ⸂ἦν πόλις⸃ ⸀Λασαία.After we had moved along the coast with difficulty, we came to a place called Fair Havens, near the town of Lasea.

9Toe daar geruime tyd verloop het en die vaart al gevaarlik was, omdat die Vasdag ook al verby was, het Paulus hulle vermaanἹκανοῦ δὲ χρόνου διαγενομένου καὶ ὄντος ἤδη ἐπισφαλοῦς τοῦ πλοὸς διὰ τὸ καὶ τὴν νηστείαν ἤδη παρεληλυθέναι, παρῄνει ὁ ΠαῦλοςBy now much time had passed, and the voyage had already become dangerous because it was after the Fast. So Paul advised them, 10en vir hulle gesê: “Manne, ek sien dat die vaart met skade en groot verlies gaan wees, nie net van die vrag en die skip nie, maar ook van ons lewens.”λέγων αὐτοῖς· Ἄνδρες, θεωρῶ ὅτι μετὰ ὕβρεως καὶ πολλῆς ζημίας οὐ μόνον τοῦ φορτίου καὶ τοῦ πλοίου ἀλλὰ καὶ τῶν ψυχῶν ἡμῶν μέλλειν ἔσεσθαι τὸν πλοῦν.“Men, I can see that our voyage will be filled with disaster and great loss, not only to ship and cargo, but to our own lives as well.” 11Maar die hoofman oor honderd het eerder na die stuurman en die skeepseienaar geluister as na wat deur Paulus gesê is.ὁ δὲ ἑκατοντάρχης τῷ κυβερνήτῃ καὶ τῷ ναυκλήρῳ ⸂μᾶλλον ἐπείθετο⸃ ἢ τοῖς ⸀ὑπὸ Παύλου λεγομένοις.But contrary to Paul’s advice, the centurion was persuaded by the pilot and by the owner of the ship. 12En omdat die hawe ongeskik was om te oorwinter, het die meerderheid besluit om daarvandaan weg te vaar, om, as hulle moontlik kon, by Feniks te kom en daar te oorwinter, 'n hawe van Kreta wat na die suidweste en na die noordweste uitkyk.ἀνευθέτου δὲ τοῦ λιμένος ὑπάρχοντος πρὸς παραχειμασίαν οἱ πλείονες ἔθεντο βουλὴν ἀναχθῆναι ⸀ἐκεῖθεν, εἴ πως δύναιντο καταντήσαντες εἰς Φοίνικα παραχειμάσαι, λιμένα τῆς Κρήτης βλέποντα κατὰ λίβα καὶ κατὰ χῶρον.Since the harbor was unsuitable to winter in, the majority decided to sail on, hoping that somehow they could reach Phoenix to winter there. Phoenix was a harbor in Crete facing both southwest and northwest.

13Toe 'n suidewind saggies begin waai het, het hulle gedink hulle het hulle voorneme bereik, en hulle het die ankers gelig en digby langs Kreta gevaar.Ὑποπνεύσαντος δὲ νότου δόξαντες τῆς προθέσεως κεκρατηκέναι ἄραντες ἆσσον παρελέγοντο τὴν Κρήτην.When a gentle south wind began to blow, they thought they had their opportunity. So they weighed anchor and sailed along, hugging the coast of Crete. 14Maar nie lank daarna nie het 'n orkaanwind, wat Eurakilon genoem word, van daar af neergestorm.

Sommige manuskripte lees: Euroklidon.

Of: daarteen aangestorm.

μετʼ οὐ πολὺ δὲ ἔβαλεν κατʼ αὐτῆς ἄνεμος τυφωνικὸς ὁ καλούμενος ⸀Εὐρακύλων·But it was not long before a cyclone called the Northeaster swept down across the island. 15Toe die skip meegesleur is en nie teen die wind kon inhou nie, het ons oorgegee en is ons voortgedryf.

Letterlik: die wind in die oë kyk.

συναρπασθέντος δὲ τοῦ πλοίου καὶ μὴ δυναμένου ἀντοφθαλμεῖν τῷ ἀνέμῳ ἐπιδόντες ἐφερόμεθα.Unable to head into the wind, the ship was caught up. So we gave way and let ourselves be driven along. 16Ons het in die luwte van 'n eilandjie gevaar wat Kauda genoem word, en kon met moeite die sloep baasraak;

Sommige manuskripte lees: Klauda.

νησίον δέ τι ὑποδραμόντες καλούμενον ⸀Καῦδα ⸂ἰσχύσαμεν μόλις⸃ περικρατεῖς γενέσθαι τῆς σκάφης,Passing to the lee of a small island called Cauda, we barely managed to secure the lifeboat. 17nadat hulle dit opgetrek het, het hulle hulpmiddels gebruik en die skip omgord; en uit vrees dat hulle op die Sirtis sou strand, het hulle die tuig laat sak en is hulle so voortgedryf.

Of: die seil laat sak.

ἣν ἄραντες βοηθείαις ἐχρῶντο ὑποζωννύντες τὸ πλοῖον· φοβούμενοί τε μὴ εἰς τὴν Σύρτιν ἐκπέσωσιν, χαλάσαντες τὸ σκεῦος, οὕτως ἐφέροντο.After hoisting it up, the crew used ropes to undergird the ship. And fearing that they would run aground on the sandbars of Syrtis, they lowered the sea anchor and were driven along. 18Omdat ons geweldig deur die storm geteister is, het hulle die volgende dag vrag oorboord begin gooi,σφοδρῶς δὲ χειμαζομένων ἡμῶν τῇ ἑξῆς ἐκβολὴν ἐποιοῦντο,We were tossed so violently that the next day the men began to jettison the cargo. 19en op die derde dag het hulle met eie hande die tuig van die skip oorboord gegooi.

Sommige manuskripte lees: het ons met eie hande die tuig van die skip oorboord gegooi.

καὶ τῇ τρίτῃ αὐτόχειρες τὴν σκευὴν τοῦ πλοίου ⸀ἔρριψαν.On the third day, they threw the ship’s tackle overboard with their own hands. 20Toe nie die son of die sterre vir baie dae verskyn het nie, en 'n storm wat nie gering was nie op ons gedruk het, is uiteindelik alle hoop dat ons gered sou word, weggeneem.μήτε δὲ ἡλίου μήτε ἄστρων ἐπιφαινόντων ἐπὶ πλείονας ἡμέρας, χειμῶνός τε οὐκ ὀλίγου ἐπικειμένου, λοιπὸν περιῃρεῖτο ⸂ἐλπὶς πᾶσα⸃ τοῦ σῴζεσθαι ἡμᾶς.When neither sun nor stars appeared for many days and the great storm continued to batter us, we abandoned all hope of being saved.

21Toe hulle lank sonder kos was, het Paulus in hulle midde gaan staan en gesê: “Manne, julle moes na my geluister het en nie van Kreta af weggevaar het nie, en so hierdie skade en verlies gespaar gebly het.

Letterlik: en hierdie skade en verlies gewen het.

Πολλῆς ⸀τε ἀσιτίας ὑπαρχούσης τότε σταθεὶς ὁ Παῦλος ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῶν εἶπεν· Ἔδει μέν, ὦ ἄνδρες, πειθαρχήσαντάς μοι μὴ ἀνάγεσθαι ἀπὸ τῆς Κρήτης κερδῆσαί τε τὴν ὕβριν ταύτην καὶ τὴν ζημίαν.After the men had gone a long time without food, Paul stood up among them and said, “Men, you should have followed my advice not to sail from Crete. Then you would have averted this disaster and loss. 22En nou vermaan ek julle om moed te hou, want daar sal geen verlies van lewe onder julle wees nie, behalwe van die skip.καὶ τὰ νῦν παραινῶ ὑμᾶς εὐθυμεῖν, ἀποβολὴ γὰρ ψυχῆς οὐδεμία ἔσται ἐξ ὑμῶν πλὴν τοῦ πλοίου·But now I urge you to keep up your courage, because you will not experience any loss of life, but only of the ship. 23Want vannag het 'n engel van die God aan wie ek behoort en wat ek ook dien, by my gestaanπαρέστη γάρ μοι ταύτῃ τῇ ⸀νυκτὶ τοῦ θεοῦ, οὗ ⸀εἰμι, ᾧ καὶ λατρεύω, ⸀ἄγγελοςFor just last night an angel of the God to whom I belong and whom I serve stood beside me 24en gesê: ‘Moenie vrees nie, Paulus; jy moet voor die keiser verskyn, en kyk, God het almal wat saam met jou vaar, aan jou geskenk.’λέγων· Μὴ φοβοῦ, Παῦλε· Καίσαρί σε δεῖ παραστῆναι, καὶ ἰδοὺ κεχάρισταί σοι ὁ θεὸς πάντας τοὺς πλέοντας μετὰ σοῦ.and said, ‘Do not be afraid, Paul; you must stand before Caesar. And look, God has granted you the lives of all who sail with you.’ 25Daarom, hou moed, manne, want ek glo God dat dit so sal wees soos dit vir my gesê is.διὸ εὐθυμεῖτε, ἄνδρες· πιστεύω γὰρ τῷ θεῷ ὅτι οὕτως ἔσται καθʼ ὃν τρόπον λελάληταί μοι.So take courage, men, for I believe God that it will happen just as He told me. 26Maar ons moet op 'n sekere eiland strand.”εἰς νῆσον δέ τινα δεῖ ἡμᾶς ἐκπεσεῖν.However, we must run aground on some island.”

27Toe dit die veertiende nag geword het terwyl ons in die Adria rondgedryf is, het die matrose omstreeks middernag vermoed dat 'n stuk land na hulle toe nader kom.Ὡς δὲ τεσσαρεσκαιδεκάτη νὺξ ἐγένετο διαφερομένων ἡμῶν ἐν τῷ Ἀδρίᾳ, κατὰ μέσον τῆς νυκτὸς ὑπενόουν οἱ ναῦται προσάγειν τινὰ αὐτοῖς χώραν.On the fourteenth night we were still being driven across the Adriatic Sea. About midnight the sailors sensed they were approaching land. 28Toe hulle die diepte gepeil het, het hulle 20 vadem gevind. Hulle het 'n entjie aangegaan en weer gepeil en vyftien vadem gevind.

Ongeveer 'n Vadem is ongeveer 1,8 meter; 20 vadem is dus ongeveer 36 meter en vyftien vadem ongeveer 27 meter.

καὶ βολίσαντες εὗρον ὀργυιὰς εἴκοσι, βραχὺ δὲ διαστήσαντες καὶ πάλιν βολίσαντες εὗρον ὀργυιὰς δεκαπέντε·They took soundings and found that the water was twenty fathoms deep. Going a little farther, they took another set of soundings that read fifteen fathoms. 29En uit vrees dat ons dalk êrens op rotsagtige plekke sou strand, het hulle vier ankers van die agterstewe af uitgegooi en gebid dat dit dag word.

Of: gewens dat dit dag word.

φοβούμενοί τε ⸂μή που κατὰ⸃ τραχεῖς τόπους ἐκπέσωμεν ἐκ πρύμνης ῥίψαντες ἀγκύρας τέσσαρας ηὔχοντο ἡμέραν γενέσθαι.Fearing that we would run aground on the rocks, they dropped four anchors from the stern and prayed for daybreak. 30Maar toe die matrose probeer het om van die skip af te vlug en die sloep in die see laat sak het onder die voorwendsel dat hulle van die voorstewe af ankers wou uitbring,τῶν δὲ ναυτῶν ζητούντων φυγεῖν ἐκ τοῦ πλοίου καὶ χαλασάντων τὴν σκάφην εἰς τὴν θάλασσαν προφάσει ὡς ἐκ πρῴρης ⸂ἀγκύρας μελλόντων⸃ ἐκτείνειν,Meanwhile, the sailors attempted to escape from the ship. Pretending to lower anchors from the bow, they let the lifeboat down into the sea. 31het Paulus vir die honderdman en die soldate gesê: “As hierdie manne nie in die skip bly nie, kan julle nie gered word nie.”εἶπεν ὁ Παῦλος τῷ ἑκατοντάρχῃ καὶ τοῖς στρατιώταις· Ἐὰν μὴ οὗτοι μείνωσιν ἐν τῷ πλοίῳ, ὑμεῖς σωθῆναι οὐ δύνασθε.But Paul said to the centurion and the soldiers, “Unless these men remain with the ship, you cannot be saved.” 32Toe het die soldate die toue van die sloep afgekap en dit laat wegval.τότε ⸂ἀπέκοψαν οἱ στρατιῶται⸃ τὰ σχοινία τῆς σκάφης καὶ εἴασαν αὐτὴν ἐκπεσεῖν.So the soldiers cut the ropes to the lifeboat and set it adrift.

33Totdat dit dag sou word, het Paulus almal aangemoedig om kos te eet, en gesê: “Dit is vandag die veertiende dag dat julle in afwagting sonder kos aanhou, sonder om enigiets te neem.Ἄχρι δὲ οὗ ⸂ἡμέρα ἤμελλεν⸃ γίνεσθαι παρεκάλει ὁ Παῦλος ἅπαντας μεταλαβεῖν τροφῆς λέγων· Τεσσαρεσκαιδεκάτην σήμερον ἡμέραν προσδοκῶντες ἄσιτοι διατελεῖτε, μηθὲν προσλαβόμενοι·Right up to daybreak, Paul kept urging them all to eat: “Today is your fourteenth day in constant suspense, without taking any food. 34Daarom moedig ek julle aan om kos te neem, want dit is vir julle redding; want van niemand van julle sal 'n haar van die kop verlore gaan nie.”

Sommige manuskripte lees: sal 'n haar van die kop val nie.

διὸ παρακαλῶ ὑμᾶς ⸀μεταλαβεῖν τροφῆς, τοῦτο γὰρ πρὸς τῆς ὑμετέρας σωτηρίας ὑπάρχει· οὐδενὸς γὰρ ὑμῶν θρὶξ ⸀ἀπὸ τῆς κεφαλῆς ⸀ἀπολεῖται.So for your own preservation, I urge you to eat something, because not a single hair of your head will be lost.” 35Nadat hy dit gesê en brood geneem het, het hy God voor almal gedank, en hy het dit gebreek en begin eet.⸀εἴπας δὲ ταῦτα καὶ λαβὼν ἄρτον εὐχαρίστησεν τῷ θεῷ ἐνώπιον πάντων καὶ κλάσας ἤρξατο ἐσθίειν.After he had said this, Paul took bread and gave thanks to God in front of them all. Then he broke it and began to eat. 36Toe het almal moed geskep en self ook kos geneem.εὔθυμοι δὲ γενόμενοι πάντες καὶ αὐτοὶ προσελάβοντο τροφῆς.They were all encouraged and took some food themselves. 37Ons was altesaam 276 siele in die skip.

Sommige manuskripte lees: ongeveer ses-en-sewentig.

ἤμεθα δὲ ⸂αἱ πᾶσαι ψυχαὶ ἐν τῷ πλοίῳ⸃ ⸀διακόσιαι ἑβδομήκοντα ἕξ.In all, there were 276 of us on board. 38Toe hulle versadig was van kos, het hulle die skip ligter gemaak deur die koring in die see te gooi.κορεσθέντες ⸀δὲ τροφῆς ἐκούφιζον τὸ πλοῖον ἐκβαλλόμενοι τὸν σῖτον εἰς τὴν θάλασσαν.After the men had eaten their fill, they lightened the ship by throwing the grain into the sea.

39Toe dit dag geword het, het hulle die land nie herken nie, maar hulle het 'n baai met 'n strand opgemerk, waarop hulle beraadslaag het of hulle die skip daarop kon stoot.Ὅτε δὲ ἡμέρα ἐγένετο, τὴν γῆν οὐκ ἐπεγίνωσκον, κόλπον δέ τινα κατενόουν ἔχοντα αἰγιαλὸν εἰς ὃν ⸀ἐβουλεύοντο εἰ ⸀δύναιντο ⸀ἐξῶσαι τὸ πλοῖον.When daylight came, they did not recognize the land, but they sighted a bay with a sandy beach, where they decided to run the ship aground if they could. 40Hulle het die ankers losgemaak en in die see laat bly, terselfdertyd die toue van die roere losgemaak, die voorseil vir die wind gehys en op die strand aangestuur.καὶ τὰς ἀγκύρας περιελόντες εἴων εἰς τὴν θάλασσαν, ἅμα ἀνέντες τὰς ζευκτηρίας τῶν πηδαλίων, καὶ ἐπάραντες τὸν ἀρτέμωνα τῇ πνεούσῃ κατεῖχον εἰς τὸν αἰγιαλόν.Cutting away the anchors, they left them in the sea as they loosened the ropes that held the rudders. Then they hoisted the foresail to the wind and made for the beach. 41Maar hulle het op 'n plek beland waar twee seë bymekaarkom en die skip laat strand; die voorstewe het vasgesit en onbeweeglik gebly, maar die agterstewe is deur die geweld uitmekaar geslaan.

Sommige manuskripte lees: deur die geweld van die golwe.

περιπεσόντες δὲ εἰς τόπον διθάλασσον ⸀ἐπέκειλαν τὴν ναῦν, καὶ ἡ μὲν πρῷρα ἐρείσασα ἔμεινεν ἀσάλευτος, ἡ δὲ πρύμνα ἐλύετο ὑπὸ τῆς ⸀βίας.But the ship struck a sandbar and ran aground. The bow stuck fast and would not move, and the stern was being broken up by the pounding of the waves. 42Die soldate se plan was om die gevangenes dood te maak, sodat niemand sou uitswem en ontsnap nie.τῶν δὲ στρατιωτῶν βουλὴ ἐγένετο ἵνα τοὺς δεσμώτας ἀποκτείνωσιν, μή τις ἐκκολυμβήσας διαφύγῃ·The soldiers planned to kill the prisoners so none of them could swim to freedom. 43Maar die honderdman, wat Paulus veilig wou deurbring, het hulle van hul plan weerhou en bevel gegee dat die wat kon swem, eerste oorboord moes spring en na die land uitgaan,ὁ δὲ ⸀ἑκατοντάρχης βουλόμενος διασῶσαι τὸν Παῦλον ἐκώλυσεν αὐτοὺς τοῦ βουλήματος, ἐκέλευσέν τε τοὺς δυναμένους κολυμβᾶν ἀπορίψαντας πρώτους ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν ἐξιέναι,But the centurion, wanting to spare Paul’s life, thwarted their plan. He commanded those who could swim to jump overboard first and get to land. 44en die res, sommige op planke en ander op stukke van die skip. En so het dit gebeur dat almal veilig na die land gebring is.καὶ τοὺς λοιποὺς οὓς μὲν ἐπὶ σανίσιν οὓς δὲ ἐπί τινων τῶν ἀπὸ τοῦ πλοίου· καὶ οὕτως ἐγένετο πάντας διασωθῆναι ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν.The rest were to follow on planks and various parts of the ship. In this way everyone was brought safely to land.
