Acts - Chapter: 27

>
27:1And when it was determined, that wee should saile into Italy, they deliuered Paul, & certaine other prisoners, vnto one named Iulius, a centurion of Augustus band.
27:2And entring into a ship of Adramyttium, wee lanched, meaning to saile by the coasts of Asia, one Aristarchus a Macedonian, of Thessalonica, beeing with vs.
27:3And the next day wee touched at Sidon: And Iulius courteously entreated Paul, and gaue him libertie to goe vnto his friends to refresh himselfe.
27:4And when we had lanched from thence, we sailed vnder Cyprus, because the winds were contrary.
27:5And when we had sailed ouer the sea of Cilicia and Pamphylia, wee came to Myra a citie of Lysia.
27:6And there the Centurion found a ship of Alexandria sailing into Italy, and he put vs therein.
27:7And when wee had sailed slowly many dayes, and scarse were come ouer against Gnidus, the wind not suffering vs, wee sailed vnder Creete, ouer against Salmone,
27:8And hardly passing it, came vnto a place which is called the Faire hauens, nigh whereunto was the citie of Lasea.
27:9Now when much time was spent, and when sailing was now dangerous, because the Fast was now alreadie past, Paul admonished them,
27:10And said vnto them, Sirs, I perceiue that this voyage will be with hurt and much damage, not onely of the lading & ship, but also of our liues.
27:11Neuerthelesse, the Centurion beleeued the master and the owner of the shippe, more then those things which were spoken by Paul.
27:12And because the hauen was not commodious to winter in, the more part aduised to depart thence also, if by any meanes they might attaine to Phenice, and there to winter; which is an hauen of Creete, and lieth toward the Southwest, and Northwest.
27:13And when the South wind blew softly, supposing that they had obtained their purpose, loosing thence, they sailed close by Creete.
27:14But not long after, there arose against it a tempestuous winde, called Euroclydon.
27:15And when the ship was caught, and could not beare vp into the winde, we let her driue.
27:16And running vnder a certaine yland, which is called Clauda, wee had much worke to come by the boate:
27:17Which when they had taken vp, they vsed helps, vnder-girding the ship; and fearing lest they should fall into the quicke-sands, strake saile, and so were driuen.
27:18And being exceedingly tossed with a tempest the next day, they lightened the ship:
27:19And the third day we cast out with our owne handes the tackling of the shippe.
27:20And when neither Sunne nor starres in many dayes appeared, and no small tempest lay on vs; all hope that wee should be saued, was then taken away.
27:21But after long abstinence, Paul stood foorth in the middes of them, and said, Sirs, yee should haue hearkened vnto mee, and not haue loosed from Creete, and to haue gained this harme and losse.
27:22And now I exhort you to be of good cheere: for there shall be no losse of any mans life among you, but of the shippe.
27:23For there stood by me this night the Angel of God, whose I am, and whom I serue,
27:24Saying, Feare not Paul, thou must be brought before Cesar, and loe, God hath giuen thee all them that saile with thee.
27:25Wherefore, sirs, be of good cheere: for I beleeue God, that it shall be euen as it was tolde me.
27:26Howbeit, we must be cast vpon a certaine Iland.
27:27But when the fourteenth night was come, as wee were driuen vp and downe in Adria about midnight, the shipmen deemed that they drew neere to some countrey:
27:28And sounded, and found it twentie fathoms: and when they had gone a little further, they sounded againe, and found it fifteene fathoms.
27:29Then fearing lest we should haue fallen vpon rockes, they cast foure ancres out of the sterne, and wished for the day.
27:30And as the shipmen were about to flee out of the ship, when they had let downe the boat into the sea, vnder colour as though they would haue cast ancres out of the fore-ship,
27:31Paul said to the Centurion, and to the souldiers, Except these abide in the ship, ye cannot be saued.
27:32Then the souldiers cut off the ropes of the boat, and let her fall off.
27:33And while the day was comming on, Paul besought them all to take meat, saying, This day is the fourteenth day that ye haue taried, and continued fasting, hauing taken nothing.
27:34Wherefore, I pray you to take some meat, for this is for your health: for there shall not an haire fall from the head of any of you.
27:35And when hee had thus spoken, hee tooke bread, and gaue thankes to God in presence of them all, and when he had broken it, he began to eate.
27:36Then were they all of good cheere, and they also tooke some meat.
27:37And we were in all, in the ship, two hundred, threescore and sixteene soules.
27:38And when they had eaten enough, they lightened the ship, and cast out the wheat into the sea.
27:39And when it was day, they knew not the land: but they discouered a certaine creek, with a shore, into the which they were minded, if it were possible, to thrust in the ship.
27:40And when they had taken vp the ankers, they committed themselues vnto the sea, & loosed the rudder bands, and hoised vp the maine saile to the winde, and made toward shore.
27:41And falling into a place where two seas met, they ranne the shippe a ground, and the forepart stucke fast, and remained vnmoueable, but the hinder part was broken with the violence of the waues.
27:42And the souldiers counsel was to kil the prisoners, lest any of them should swimme out, and escape.
27:43But the Centurion, willing to saue Paul, kept them from their purpose, and commanded that they which could swimme, should cast themselues first into the sea, and get to land:
27:44And the rest, some on boords, and some on broken pieces of the ship: and so it came to passe that they escaped all safe to land.

 

27:1Whan it was concluded that we shulde sayle in to Italy, they delyuered Paul and certayne other presoners to the vndercaptayne named Iulius, of the Emperours soudyers.
27:2And whan we were entred in to a shippe of Adramitium, to sayle by Asia, we lowsed from londe. And there was with vs one Aristarchus out of Macedonia off Thessalonica,
27:3and on the nexte daye we came vnto Sidon. And Iulius intreated Paul curteously, and gaue him liberty to go to his frendes, and to refresh himselfe.
27:4And from thence launched we, and sayled harde by Cypers (because the wyndes were agaynst vs)
27:5and sayled ouer the see of Celicia and Pamphilia, and came to Myra in Lycia.
27:6And there the vndercaptayne founde a shippe of Alexadria, ready to sayle in to Italy, and put vs therin.
27:7And whan we had sayled slowly, and in many dayes were scarcely come ouer agaynst Gnydon (for the wynde with stode vs) we sayled by Candy nye vnto the cite off Salmo,
27:8and came scarcely beyonde it. Then came we to a place, which is called Goodhauen, nye where vnto was the cite Lasea.
27:9Now whan moch tyme was spent, and saylinge was now ioperdous, because that they also had fasted ouerlonge, Paul exhorted them,
27:10and sayde vnto them: Syrs, I se that this saylinge wyl be with hurte and moch dammage, not onely of the ladynge and of the shippe, but also of oure lyues.
27:11Neuertheles ye vndercaptayne beleued the gouernoure of the shippe and ye master, more then it that was spoken of Paul.
27:12And for somoch as the haue was not comodious to wynter in, the more parte off them toke councell to departe thece, yf by eny meanes they might come to Phenices to wynter there, which is an hauen of Candy, towarde the Southwest and Northwest wynde.
27:13Whan the South wynde blewe, they supposinge to haue had their purpose, lowsed vnto Asson, and sayled past all Candy.
27:14But not longe after, there rose agaynst their purpose a flawe of wynde, which is called the Northeast.
27:15And whan the shippe was caught, and coulde not resist ye wynde, we let her go, and draue with the wedder.
27:16But we came to an Ile named Claudia, where we coulde scarce get a bote.
27:17Which they toke vp, and vsed helpe, and bounde it vnder harde to the shippe, fearinge lest they shulde haue fallen in to the Syrtes, and let downe the vessell, and so were caried.
27:18And whan we had bydden a greate tepest, on the nexte daye they made an outcastinge.
27:19And on the thirde daye with oure awne handes we cast out the tacklynge of the shippe.
27:20But wha nether Sonne ner starres appeared in many dayes, and no small tempest laye vpon vs, all the hope of oure life was taken awaye.
27:21And after longe abstinence, Paul stode forth in the myddes of the, and sayde: Syrs, ye shulde haue herkened vnto me, and not to haue lowsed from Candy, and not to haue broughte vs this harme and losse.
27:22And now I exhorte you to be of good cheare, for there shal none of oure lyues perishe, but the shippe onely.
27:23For this night stode by me the angell off God (whose I am, & who I serue)
27:24& saide: Feare not Paul, thou must be broughte before the Emperoure. And lo, God hath geuen vnto the all the that sayle with the.
27:25Wherfore syrs be of good cheare: for I beleue God, yt it shal come so to passe, as it was tolde me.
27:26Howbeit we must be cast in to a certayne ylonde.
27:27But whan the fourtenth night came, as we were caried in Adria aboute mydnight, ye shipmen demed that there appeared some countre vnto them,
27:28and they cast out the leade, and founde it twetye feddoms: and wha they were gone a litle farther, they cast out the leade agayne, and founde fyftene feddoms.
27:29Then fearinge lest they shulde fall on some rocke, they cast foure anckers out of the sterne, and wysshed for the daye.
27:30Whan the shipmen were aboute to flye out of the shippe, and let downe the bote in to the see, (vnder a coloure as though they wolde cast ankers out of the fore shippe)
27:31Paul sayde to ye vndercaptayne and to the soudyers: Excepte these byde in the shippe, ye can not be saued.
27:32Then the soudyers cut of the rope from the bote, and let it fall.
27:33And whan it beganne to be daye, Paul exhorted them all to take meate, and sayde: To daye is the fourtene daye that ye haue taried and contynued fastinge, and haue receaued nothinge:
27:34Wherfore I praye you to take meate, for youre health: for there shal not one heer fall from the heade of eny of you.
27:35And whan he had thus spoken, he toke bred, and gaue thankes to God before them all, and brake it, and begane to eate.
27:36Then were they all of good cheare, and toke meate also.
27:37We were all together in the shippe two hundreth thre score and sixtene soules.
27:38And whan they had eaten ynough, they lightened the shippe, and cast out the wheate in to the see.
27:39Whan it was daye, they knewe not the londe. But they spyed an hauen with a banke, in to which they were mynded (yf it were possible) to thrust in the shippe.
27:40And whan they had take vp the anckers, they commytted them selues to the see, and lowsed the rudder bandes, and hoyssed vp the mayne sayle to the wynde, and drue towarde londe.
27:41And whan we chaunced on a place which had the see on both the sydes, the shippe dasshed vpon it. And the fore parte abode fast vnmoued, but the hynder parte brake thorow the violence of the wawes.
27:42The soudyers councell was to kyll ye presoners, lest eny of them whan he had swymmed out, shulde flye awaye.
27:43But the vndercaptayne wyllinge to saue Paul, keped them from their purpose, and commaunded that they which coulde swymme, shulde cast them selues first in to the see, and escape vnto londe:
27:44and the other, some on bordes, some on broken peces of the shippe. And so it came to passe, that all the soules came safe vnto londe.

 

27:1But as it was demed hym to schippe into Ytalie, thei bitoken Poul with othere kepers to a centurien, bi name Julius, of the cumpeny of knyytis of the emperoure.
27:2And we wenten vp in to the schip of Adrymetis, and bigunnen to seile, and weren borun aboute the placis of Asie, while Aristark of Macedonye, Tessalonycence, dwellide stille with vs.
27:3And in the dai suynge, we camen to Sydon; and Julius tretyde curteisli Poul, and suffride to go to frendis, and do his nedis.
27:4And whanne we remouede fro thennus, we vndurseiliden to Cipre, for that wyndis weren contrarie.
27:5And we seiliden in the see of Silicie and Pamfilie, and camen to Listris, that is Licie.
27:6And there the centurien foond a schip of Alisaundre, seilinge in to Ytalie, and puttide vs ouer in to it.
27:7And whanne in many daies we seilden slowli, and vnnethe camen ayens Guydum, for the winde lettide vs, we seiliden to Crete, bisidis Salomona.
27:8And vnnethe we seilden bisidis, and camen into a place, that is clepid of good hauen, to whom the cite Tessala was niy.
27:9And whanne miche time was passid, and whanne seiling thanne was not sikir, for that fasting was passid, Poul coumfortide hem,
27:10and seide to hem, Men, Y se that seiling bigynneth to be with wrong and myche harm, not oonli of charge and of the schip, but also of oure lyues.
27:11But the centurien bileuede more to the gouernour, and to the lord of the schip, thanne to these thingis that weren seid of Poul.
27:12And whanne the hauene was not able to dwelle in wynter, ful many ordeyneden counsel to seile fro thennus, if on ony maner thei miyten come to Fenyce, to dwelle in wynter at the hauene of Crete, which biholdith to Affrik, and to Corum.
27:13And whanne the south blew, thei gessiden hem to holde purpos; and whanne thei hadden removed fro Asson, thei seiliden to Crete.
27:14And not aftir miche, the wynde Tifonyk, that is clepid north eest, was ayens it.
27:15And whanne the schip was rauyschid, and myyte not enforse ayens the wynde, whanne the schip was youun to the blowynges of the wynde, we weren borun with cours into an ile,
27:16that is clepid Canda; and vnethe we miyten gete a litil boot.
27:17And whanne this was takun vp, thei vsiden helpis, girdinge togidere the schippe; and dredden, lest thei schulden falle into sondi placis. And whanne the vessel was vndur set, so thei weren borun.
27:18And for we weren throwun with strong tempest, in the dai suynge thei maden casting out.
27:19And the thridde dai with her hoondis thei castiden awei the instrumentis of the schip.
27:20And whanne the sunne nether the sterris weren seie bi many daies, and tempest not a litil neiyede, now al the hope of oure helthe was don awei.
27:21And whanne myche fasting hadde be, thanne Poul stood in the myddil of hem, and seide, A! men, it bihofte, whanne ye herden me, not to haue take awei the schip fro Crete, and gete this wronge and casting out.
27:22And now Y counsel you to be of good coumfort, for los of no persoone of you schal be, outakun of the schip.
27:23For an aungel of God, whos Y am, and to whom Y serue, stood niy to me in this niyt, and seide, Poul, drede thou not;
27:24it bihoueth thee to stonde bifore the emperour. And lo! God hath youun to thee alle that ben in the schip with thee.
27:25For which thing, ye men, be ye of good coumfort; for Y bileue to my God, that so it schal be, as it is seid to me.
27:26And it bihoueth vs to come into sum yle.
27:27But aftirward that in the fourtenthe dai the niyt cam on vs seilinge in the stony see, aboute mydniyt the schipmen supposiden sum cuntre to appere to hem.
27:28And thei kesten doun a plommet, and founden twenti pasis of depnesse. And aftir a litil thei weren departid fro thennus, and foundun fiftene pasis.
27:29And thei dredden, lest we schulden haue fallun in to scharp placis; and fro the last parti of the schip thei senten foure ankeris, and desiriden that the dai hadde be come.
27:30And whanne the schipmen souyten to fle fro the schip, whanne thei hadden sent a litil boot in to the see, vndur colour as thei schulden bigynne to stretche forth the ankeris fro the formere part of the schip,
27:31Poul seide to the centurien and to the knyytis, But these dwellen in the schip, ye moun not be maad saaf.
27:32Thanne knyytis kittiden awei the cordis of the litil boot, and suffriden it to falle awei.
27:33And whanne the dai was come, Poul preiede alle men to take mete, and seide, The fourtenthe dai this dai ye `abiden, and dwellen fastinge, and taken no thing.
27:34Wherfor Y preie you to take mete, for youre helthe; for of noon of you the heer of the heed schal perische.
27:35And whanne he hadde seid these thingis, Poul took breed, and dide thankyngis to God in the siyt of alle men; and whanne he hadde brokun, he bigan to eete.
27:36And alle weren maad of betere coumfort, and thei token mete.
27:37And we weren alle men in the schip, two hundrid seuenti and sexe.
27:38And thei weren fillid with mete, and dischargiden the schip, and castiden whete in to the see.
27:39And whanne the dai was comun, thei knewen no lond; and thei bihelden an hauene that hadde a watir bank, in to which thei thouyten, if thei miyten, to bringe vp the schip.
27:40And whanne thei hadden take vp the ankeris, thei bitoken hem to the see, and slakiden togidir the ioyntours of gouernails. And with a litil seil lift vp, bi blowyng of the wynde thei wenten to the bank.
27:41And whanne we felden into a place of grauel gon al aboute with the see, thei hurtliden the schip. And whanne the formere part was fitchid, it dwellide vnmouable, and the last part was brokun of strengthe of the see.
27:42And counsel of the kniytis was, to sle men that weren in warde, lest ony schulde ascape, whanne he hadde swymmed out.
27:43But the centurien wolde kepe Poul, and forbede it to be don. And he comaundide hem that miyte swymme, to go in to the see, and scape, and go out to the loond.
27:44And thei baren summe othere on boordis, summe on tho thingis that weren of the schip. And so it was don, that alle men ascapiden to the lond.
