¹When it was determined that we should sail for Italy, they delivered Paul and certain other prisoners to a centurion named Julius, of the Augustan band.

¹E, como se determinou que navegássemos para a Itália, entregaram Paulo e alguns outros presos a um centurião por nome Júlio, da coorte augusta.

²Embarking in a ship of Adramyttium, which was about to sail to places on the coast of Asia, we put to sea; Aristarchus, a Macedonian of Thessalonica, being with us.

²E, embarcando em um navio de Adramítio, que estava prestes a navegar em demanda dos portos pela costa da Ásia, fizemo-nos ao mar, estando conosco Aristarco, macedônio de Tessalônica.

³The next day, we touched at Sidon. Julius treated Paul kindly, and gave him permission to go to his friends and refresh himself.

³No dia seguinte chegamos a Sidom, e Júlio, tratando Paulo com bondade, permitiu-lhe ir ver os amigos e receber deles os cuidados necessários.

⁴Putting to sea from there, we sailed under the lee of Cyprus, because the winds were contrary.

⁴Partindo dali, fomos navegando a sotavento de Chipre, porque os ventos eram contrários.

⁵When we had sailed across the sea which is off Cilicia and Pamphylia, we came to Myra, a city of Lycia.

⁵Tendo atravessado o mar ao longo da Cilícia e Panfília, chegamos a Mirra, na Lícia.

⁶There the centurion found a ship of Alexandria sailing for Italy, and he put us on board.

⁶Ali o centurião achou um navio de Alexandria que navegava para a Itália, e nos fez embarcar nele.

⁷When we had sailed slowly many days, and had come with difficulty opposite Cnidus, the wind not allowing us further, we sailed under the lee of Crete, opposite Salmone.

⁷Navegando vagarosamente por muitos dias, e havendo chegado com dificuldade defronte de Cnido, não nos permitindo o vento ir mais adiante, navegamos a sotavento de Creta, � altura de Salmone;

⁸With difficulty sailing along it we came to a certain place called Fair Havens, near the city of Lasea.

⁸e, costeando-a com dificuldade, chegamos a um lugar chamado Bons Portos, perto do qual estava a cidade de Laséia.

⁹When much time had passed and the voyage was now dangerous, because the Fast had now already gone by, Paul admonished them,

⁹Havendo decorrido muito tempo e tendo-se tornado perigosa a navegação, porque já havia passado o jejum, Paulo os advertia,

¹⁰and said to them, “Sirs, I perceive that the voyage will be with injury and much loss, not only of the cargo and the ship, but also of our lives.”

¹⁰dizendo-lhes: Senhores, vejo que a viagem vai ser com avaria e muita perda não só para a carga e o navio, mas também para as nossas vidas.

¹¹But the centurion gave more heed to the master and to the owner of the ship than to those things which were spoken by Paul.

¹¹Mas o centurião dava mais crédito ao piloto e ao dono do navio do que �s coisas que Paulo dizia.

¹²Because the haven was not suitable to winter in, the majority advised going to sea from there, if by any means they could reach Phoenix, and winter there, which is a port of Crete, looking northeast and southeast.

¹²E não sendo o porto muito próprio para invernar, os mais deles foram de parecer que daí se fizessem ao mar para ver se de algum modo podiam chegar a Fênice, um porto de Creta que olha para o nordeste e para o sueste, para ali invernar.

¹³When the south wind blew softly, supposing that they had obtained their purpose, they weighed anchor and sailed along Crete, close to shore.

¹³Soprando brandamente o vento sul, e supondo eles terem alcançado o que desejavam, levantaram ferro e iam costeando Creta bem de perto.

¹⁴But before long, a stormy wind beat down from shore, which is called Euroclydon. Or, “a northeaster.”

¹⁴Mas não muito depois desencadeou-se do lado da ilha um tufão de vento chamado euro-aquilão;

¹⁵When the ship was caught, and couldn’t face the wind, we gave way to it, and were driven along.

¹⁵e, sendo arrebatado o navio e não podendo navegar contra o vento, cedemos � sua força e nos deixávamos levar.

¹⁶Running under the lee of a small island called Clauda, we were able, with difficulty, to secure the boat.

¹⁶Correndo a sota-vento de uma pequena ilha chamada Clauda, somente a custo pudemos segurar o batel,

¹⁷After they had hoisted it up, they used cables to help reinforce the ship. Fearing that they would run aground on the Syrtis sand bars, they lowered the sea anchor, and so were driven along.

¹⁷o qual recolheram, usando então os meios disponíveis para cingir o navio; e, temendo que fossem lançados na Sirte, arriaram os aparelhos e se deixavam levar.

¹⁸As we labored exceedingly with the storm, the next day they began to throw things overboard.

¹⁸Como fôssemos violentamente açoitados pela tempestade, no dia seguinte começaram a alijar a carga ao mar.

¹⁹On the third day, they threw out the ship’s tackle with their own hands.

¹⁹E ao terceiro dia, com as próprias mãos lançaram os aparelhos do navio.

²⁰When neither sun nor stars shone on us for many days, and no small storm pressed on us, all hope that we would be saved was now taken away.

²⁰Não aparecendo por muitos dia nem sol nem estrelas, e sendo nós ainda batidos por grande tempestade, fugiu-nos afinal toda a esperança de sermos salvos.

²¹When they had been long without food, Paul stood up in the middle of them, and said, “Sirs, you should have listened to me, and not have set sail from Crete, and have gotten this injury and loss.

²¹Havendo eles estado muito tempo sem comer, Paulo, pondo-se em pé no meio deles, disse: Senhores, devíeis ter-me ouvido e não ter partido de Creta, para evitar esta avaria e perda.

²²Now I exhort you to cheer up, for there will be no loss of life among you, but only of the ship.

²²E agora vos exorto a que tenhais bom ânimo, pois não se perderá vida alguma entre vós, mas somente o navio.

²³For there stood by me this night an angel, belonging to the God whose I am and whom I serve,

²³Porque esta noite me apareceu um anjo do Deus de quem eu sou e a quem sirvo,

²⁴saying, ‘Don’t be afraid, Paul. You must stand before Caesar. Behold, God has granted you all those who sail with you.’

²⁴dizendo: Não temas, Paulo, importa que compareças perante César, e eis que Deus te deu todos os que navegam contigo.

²⁵Therefore, sirs, cheer up! For I believe God, that it will be just as it has been spoken to me.

²⁵Portanto, senhores, tende bom ânimo; pois creio em Deus que há de suceder assim como me foi dito.

²⁶But we must run aground on a certain island.”

²⁶Contudo é necessário irmos dar em alguma ilha.

²⁷But when the fourteenth night had come, as we were driven back and forth in the Adriatic Sea, about midnight the sailors surmised that they were drawing near to some land.

²⁷Quando chegou a décima quarta noite, sendo nós ainda impelidos pela tempestade no mar de Ádria, pela meia-noite, suspeitaram os marinheiros a proximidade de terra;

²⁸They took soundings, and found twenty fathoms. 20 fathoms = 120 feet = 36.6 meters After a little while, they took soundings again, and found fifteen fathoms. 15 fathoms = 90 feet = 27.4 meters

²⁸e lançando a sonda, acharam vinte braças; passando um pouco mais adiante, e tornando a lançar a sonda, acharam quinze braças.

²⁹Fearing that we would run aground on rocky ground, they let go four anchors from the stern, and wished for daylight.

²⁹Ora, temendo irmos dar em rochedos, lançaram da popa quatro âncoras, e esperaram ansiosos que amanhecesse.

³⁰As the sailors were trying to flee out of the ship, and had lowered the boat into the sea, pretending that they would lay out anchors from the bow,

³⁰Procurando, entrementes, os marinheiros fugir do navio, e tendo arriado o batel ao mar sob pretexto de irem lançar âncoras pela proa,

³¹Paul said to the centurion and to the soldiers, “Unless these stay in the ship, you can’t be saved.”

³¹disse Paulo ao centurião e aos soldados: Se estes não ficarem no navio, não podereis salvar-vos.

³²Then the soldiers cut away the ropes of the boat, and let it fall off.

³²Então os soldados cortaram os cabos do batel e o deixaram cair.

³³While the day was coming on, Paul begged them all to take some food, saying, “This day is the fourteenth day that you wait and continue fasting, having taken nothing.

³³Enquanto amanhecia, Paulo rogava a todos que comessem alguma coisa, dizendo: É já hoje o décimo quarto dia que esperais e permaneceis em jejum, não havendo provado coisa alguma.

³⁴Therefore I beg you to take some food, for this is for your safety; for not a hair will perish from any of your heads.”

³⁴Rogo-vos, portanto, que comais alguma coisa, porque disso depende a vossa segurança; porque nem um cabelo cairá da cabeça de qualquer de vós.

³⁵When he had said this, and had taken bread, he gave thanks to God in the presence of all, and he broke it, and began to eat.

³⁵E, havendo dito isto, tomou o pão, deu graças a Deus na presença de todos e, partindo-o começou a comer.

³⁶Then they all cheered up, and they also took food.

³⁶Então todos cobraram ânimo e se puseram também a comer.

³⁷In all, we were two hundred seventy-six souls on the ship.

³⁷Éramos ao todo no navio duzentas e setenta e seis almas.

³⁸When they had eaten enough, they lightened the ship, throwing out the wheat into the sea.

³⁸Depois de saciados com a comida, começaram a aliviar o navio, alijando o trigo no mar.

³⁹When it was day, they didn’t recognize the land, but they noticed a certain bay with a beach, and they decided to try to drive the ship onto it.

³⁹Quando amanheceu, não reconheciam a terra; divisavam, porém, uma enseada com uma praia, e consultavam se poderiam nela encalhar o navio.

⁴⁰Casting off the anchors, they left them in the sea, at the same time untying the rudder ropes. Hoisting up the foresail to the wind, they made for the beach.

⁴⁰Soltando as âncoras, deixaram-nas no mar, largando ao mesmo tempo as amarras do leme; e, içando ao vento a vela da proa, dirigiram-se para a praia.

⁴¹But coming to a place where two seas met, they ran the vessel aground. The bow struck and remained immovable, but the stern began to break up by the violence of the waves.

⁴¹Dando, porém, num lugar onde duas correntes se encontravam, encalharam o navio; e a proa, encravando-se, ficou imóvel, mas a popa se desfazia com a força das ondas.

⁴²The soldiers’ counsel was to kill the prisoners, so that none of them would swim out and escape.

⁴²Então o parecer dos soldados era que matassem os presos para que nenhum deles fugisse, escapando a nado.

⁴³But the centurion, desiring to save Paul, stopped them from their purpose, and commanded that those who could swim should throw themselves overboard first to go toward the land;

⁴³Mas o centurião, querendo salvar a Paulo, estorvou-lhes este intento; e mandou que os que pudessem nadar fossem os primeiros a lançar-se ao mar e alcançar a terra;

⁴⁴and the rest should follow, some on planks, and some on other things from the ship. So it happened that they all escaped safely to the land.

⁴⁴e que os demais se salvassem, uns em tábuas e outros em quaisquer destroços do navio. Assim chegaram todos � terra salvos.
