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.

¹Ko je bilo pa sklenjeno, da se imamo po morju odpeljati v Italijo, so izročili Pavla in nekaj drugih jetnikov stotniku, po imenu Juliju, od cesarske trume.

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.

²In stopivši na ladjo iz Adramita, ki je bila namenjena v primorska mesta v Aziji, smo odrinili, in z nami je bil Aristarh, Macedonec iz Soluna.

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

³In drugi dan smo prišli v Sidon. In Julij je priljudno ravnal s Pavlom in mu je dovolil iti k prijateljem in si dati postreči.

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

⁴In ko smo odrinili odtod, smo se peljali za Ciprom, ker so nam bili vetrovi nasprotni.

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

⁵In ko smo prepluli morje, ki je poleg Cilicije in Pamfilije, smo pripli v Miro v Liciji.

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

⁶In tu je našel stotnik ladjo iz Aleksandrije, ki je jadrala v Italijo, in nas je prestavil nanjo.

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.

⁷Ko smo se bili po mnogo dni počasi vozili in dospeli s težavo proti Knidu, kjer nam je veter branil pristati, smo pluli pod Kreto proti Salmoni.

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

⁸In le s težavo se vozeč mimo nje, smo prišli v neki kraj, ki se imenuje Dobro pristanišče, blizu katerega je bilo mesto Laseja.

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

⁹Ko je bilo pa veliko časa prešlo in je bila vožnja že nevarna, ker je že tudi post minil, jih je Pavel opominjal

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.”

¹⁰in jim dejal: Možje, vidim, da hoče vožnja biti huda in silno nevarna ne le za blago in ladjo, ampak tudi za življenje naše.

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.

¹¹Ali stotnik je bolj verjel krmarju in gospodarju ladje nego temu, kar je pravil Pavel.

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.

¹²In ker pristanišče ni bilo pripravno za zimovanje, so sklenili skoro vsi, odpeljati se odtod, ne bi li kako mogli dospeti do Fenike, ki je pristanišče na Kreti in leži proti jugu in zahodnemu severu, in tam prezimovati.

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

¹³Ko je pa potegnil jug, so odrinili, misleč, da dosežejo svoj namen, in so se peljali ob Kreti, bližje obrežja.

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

¹⁴Toda nedolgo potem zaveje od otoka hud veter, ki se imenuje vzhodni sever.

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

¹⁵Ko je pa zgrabilo ladjo in se ni mogla vetru upirati, smo jo izročili valovom, in nosili so nas.

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

¹⁶Ko nas pa je zaneslo pod neki otočič, po imenu Kavda, smo komaj mogli obdržati čolnič.

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.

¹⁷In ko so ga vzdignili, so se poslužili pripomočkov in so ovili ladjo; in boječ se, da ne bi zadeli na kleče, so spustili jadra in so se tako peljali.

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

¹⁸In ker nas je vihar hudo metal, so drugi dan začeli izmetavati blago,

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

¹⁹in tretji dan so s svojimi rokami izmetali ladijno opravo.

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.

²⁰Ko se pa ne solnce, ne zvezde niso pokazale več dni in je silna burja na nas pritiskala, je že izginilo vse upanje, da bi se oteli.

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.

²¹In ko že dolgo časa niso jedli, tedaj reče Pavel, stoječ sredi njih: Poslušali bi me bili, o možje, in ne odrinili od Krete in tako se obvarovali te nadloge in izgube.

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

²²In sedaj vas opominjam, da bodite srčni: zakaj izgube ne bo nobenega življenja med vami, razen le ladje.

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

²³Stal mi je namreč ob strani to noč angel Boga, čigar sem in ki mu služim,

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

²⁴rekoč: Ne boj se, Pavel! pred cesarja moraš stopiti; in glej, Bog ti je podaril vse, kar se jih pelje s teboj.

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

²⁵Zatorej bodite srčni, možje! Kajti verujem Bogu, da se res tako zgodi, kakor mi je bilo rečeno.

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

²⁶Moramo se pa nameriti na neki otok.

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.

²⁷Ko je pa štirinajsta noč prišla in so nas valovi semterja gnali po Jadranskem morju, se je zdelo mornarjem okoli polnoči, da se bližajo neki zemlji.

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

²⁸In izmerivši globočino, najdejo dvajset sežnjev; in ko pridejo malo dalje in izmerijo globočino, najdejo petnajst sežnjev.

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

²⁹In boječ se, da ne bi naleteli na skalnata mesta, so vrgli s krme štiri mačke in so želeli, da bi se dan naredil.

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,

³⁰Ko so pa mornarji skušali pobegniti z ladje in so spustili čolnič v morje z izgovorom, da hočejo s prednjega konca mačke vreči,

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

³¹reče Pavel stotniku in vojakom: Ako ti ne ostanejo na ladji, se vi ne morete oteti.

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

³²Tedaj odsekajo vojaki vrvi čolniču in ga spuste, da je odplul.

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.

³³Dokler bi se pa začelo daniti, prosi Pavel vse, naj vzemo jedi, rekoč: Štirinajsti dan je danes, kar čakate in ste brez jedi, ne uživši ničesar.

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.”

³⁴Zato vas prosim, vzemite jedi, zakaj to je za vašo ohranitev. Nikomur od vas namreč se ne pogubi las z glave.

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.

³⁵In rekši to, vzame kruh in zahvali Boga pred vsemi, ter ga prelomi in začne jesti.

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

³⁶Tedaj postanejo vsi srčnejši in vzemo tudi oni jedi.

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

³⁷Bilo nas je pa vseh na ladji dvesto in šestinsedemdeset duš.

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

³⁸In ko so se dositega najedli, so olajšali ladjo, izmetavši žito v morje.

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.

³⁹Ko se je pa zdanilo, niso poznali dežele; ugledajo pa neki zaliv, da ima raven breg, in nanj so mislili, ko bilo mogoče, izvleči ladjo.

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.

⁴⁰In odsekajo mačke in jih puste v morju, obenem pa odvežejo vrvi pri krmilih; in razpno prednje jadro po vetru ter se peljejo proti bregu.

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.

⁴¹Ko pa jih je zagnalo na kraj, ki je imel po obeh straneh morje, so zadeli z ladjo ob tla; in prednji konec se je zasadil in trdno obtičal, a krma se je razbijala od sile valovja.

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

⁴²Vojakov naklep pa je bil, da pomoré jetnike, da ne bi kdo odplaval in pobegnil.

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;

⁴³Toda stotnik hoteč ohraniti Pavla, prepreči njih naklep in ukaže, naj tisti, ki znajo plavati, najprej skočijo v vodo in se spravijo na suho,drugi pa nekateri na deskah, a nekateri na kosovih od ladje. In tako se je zgodilo, da so se vsi rešili na suho.

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.

⁴⁴drugi pa nekateri na deskah, a nekateri na kosovih od ladje. In tako se je zgodilo, da so se vsi rešili na suho.
