1 우리의 배 타고 이달리야로 갈 일이 작정되매 바울과 다른 죄수 몇 사람을 아구사도대의 백부장 율리오란 사람에게 맡기니
2 아시아 해변 각처로 가려 하는 아드라뭇데노 배에 우리가 올라 행선할새 마게도냐의 데살로니가 사람 아리스다고도 함께 하니라
3 이튿날 시돈에 대니 율리오가 바울을 친절히 하여 친구들에게 가서 대접받음을 허락하더니
4 또 거기서 우리가 떠나가다가 바람의 거스림을 피하여 구브로 해안을 의지하고 행선하여
5 길리기아와 밤빌리아 바다를 건너 루기아의 무라성에 이르러
6 거기서 백부장이 이달리야로 가려 하는 알렉산드리아 배를 만나 우리를 오르게 하니
7 배가 더디 가 여러 날만에 간신히 니도 맞은 편에 이르러 풍세가 더 허락지 아니하므로 살모네 앞을 지나 그레데 해안을 의지하고 행선하여
8 간신히 그 연안을 지나 미항이라는 곳에 이르니 라새아성에서 가깝더라
9 여러 날이 걸려 금식하는 절기가 이미 지났으므로 행선하기가 위태한지라 바울이 저희를 권하여
10 말하되 `여러분이여, 내가 보니 이번 행선이 하물과 배만 아니라 우리 생명에도 타격과 많은 손해가 있으리라' 하되
11 백부장이 선장과 선주의 말을 바울의 말보다 더 믿더라
12 그 항구가 과동하기에 불편하므로 거기서 떠나 아무쪼록 뵈닉스에 가서 과동하자 하는 자가 더 많으니 뵈닉스는 그레데 항구라 한 편은 동북을,한 편은 동남을 향하였더라
13 남풍이 순하게 불매 저희가 득의한 줄 알고 닻을 감아 그레데 해변을 가까이 하고 행선하더니
14 얼마 못되어 섬 가운데로서 유라굴로라는 광풍이 대작하니
15 배가 밀려 바람을 맞추어 갈 수 없어 가는 대로 두고 쫓겨가다가
16 가우다라는 작은 섬 아래로 지나 간신히 거루를 잡아
17 끌어 올리고 줄을 가지고 선체를 둘러 감고 스르디스에 걸릴까 두려워 연장을 내리고 그냥 쫓겨가더니
18 우리가 풍랑으로 심히 애쓰다가 이튿날 사공들이 짐을 바다에 풀어 버리고
19 사흘째 되는 날에 배의 기구를 저희 손으로 내어 버리니라
20 여러 날 동안 해와 별이 보이지 아니하고 큰 풍랑이 그대로 있으매 구원의 여망이 다 없어졌더라
21 여러 사람이 오래 먹지 못하였으매 바울이 가운데 서서 말하되 여러분이여 내 말을 듣고 그레데에서 떠나지 아니하여 이 타격과 손상을 면하였더면 좋을 뻔하였느니라
22 내가 너희를 권하노니 이제는 안심하라 너희 중 생명에는 아무 손상이 없겠고 오직 배뿐이리라
23 나의 속한 바 곧 나의 섬기는 하나님의 사자가 어제 밤에 내 곁에 서서 말하되
24 바울아 두려워 말라 네가 가이사 앞에 서야 하겠고 또 하나님께서 너와 함께 행선하는 자를 다 네게 주셨다 하였으니
25 그러므로 여러분이여 안심하라 나는 내게 말씀하신 그대로 되리라 !고 하나님을 믿노라
26 그러나 우리가 한 섬에 걸리리라 하더라
27 열 나흘째 되는 날 밤에 우리가 아드리아 바다에 이리저리 쫓겨 가더니 밤중쯤 되어 사공들이 어느 육지에 가까와지는 줄을 짐작하고
28 물을 재어보니 이십 길이 되고 조금 가다가 다시 재니 열 다섯 길이라
29 암초에 걸릴까 하여 고물로 닻 넷을 주고 날이 새기를 고대하더니
30 사공들이 도망하고자 하여 이물에서 닻을 주려는 체하고 거루를 바다에 내려놓거늘
31 바울이 백부장과 군사들에게 이르되 `이 사람들이 배에 있지 아니하면 너희가 구원을 얻지 못하리라' 하니
32 이에 군사들이 거룻 줄을 끊어 떼어 버리니라
33 날이 새어 가매 바울이 여러 사람을 음식 먹으라 권하여 가로되 너희가 기다리고 기다리며 먹지 못하고 주린 지가 오늘까지 열 나흘인즉
34 음식 먹으라 권하노니 이것이 너희 구원을 위하는 것이요 너희 중 머리터럭 하나라도 잃을 자가 없느니라 하고
35 떡을 가져다가 모든 사람 앞에서 하나님께 축사하고 떼어 먹기를 시작하매
36 저희도 다 안심하고 받아 먹으니
37 배에 있는 우리의 수는 전부 이백 칠십 륙 인이러라
38 배부르게 먹고 밀을 바다에 버려 배를 가볍게 하였더니
39 날이 새매 어느 땅인지 알지 못하나 경사 진 해안으로 된 항만이 눈에 띄거늘 배를 거기에 들여다 댈 수 있는가 의논한 후
40 닻을 끊어 바다에 버리는 동시에 킷줄을 늦추고 돛을 달고 바람을 맞추어 해안을 향하여 들어가다가
41 두 물이 합하여 흐르는 곳을 당하여 배를 걸매 이물은 부딪혀 움직일 수 없이 붙고 고물은 큰 물결에 깨어져 가니
42 군사들은 죄수가 헤엄쳐서 도망할까 하여 저희를 죽이는 것이 좋다 하였으나
43 백부장이 바울을 구원하려 하여 저희의 뜻을 막고 헤엄칠 줄 아는 사람들을 명하여 물에 뛰어 내려 먼저 육지에 나가게 하고
44 그 남은 사람들은 널조각 혹은 배 물건에 의지하여 나가게 하니 마침내 사람들이 다 상륙하여 구원을 얻으니라
1 And when the decision had been made that we were to go by sea to Italy, they gave Paul and certain other prisoners into the care of a captain named Julius, of the Augustan band.
2 And we went to sea in a ship of Adramyttium which was sailing to the sea towns of Asia, Aristarchus, a Macedonian of Thessalonica, being with us.
3 And on the day after, we came to Sidon; and Julius was kind to Paul, and let him go to see his friends and take a rest.
4 And sailing again from there, we went on under cover of Cyprus, because the wind was against us.
5 And having gone across the sea off Cilicia and Pamphylia we came to Myra, in Lycia.
6 And there the captain came across a ship of Alexandria, sailing for Italy, and put us in it.
7 And when we had gone on slowly for a long time, and had had hard work getting across to Cnidus, for the wind was against us, we went under cover of Crete, in the direction of Salmone;
8 And sailing down the side of it, as well as we were able, we came to a certain place named Fair Havens, near which was the town of Lasea.
9 And as a long time had gone by, and the journey was now full of danger, because it was late in the year, Paul put the position before them,
10 Saying, Friends, I see that this journey will be one of great damage and loss, not only to the goods and the ship, but to ourselves.
11 But the captain gave more attention to the master and the owner of the ship than to what Paul said.
12 And as the harbour was not a good one in which to be for the winter, the greater number of them were for going out to sea, in order, if possible, to put in for the winter at Phoenix, a harbour of Crete, looking to the north-east and south-east.
13 And when the south wind came softly, being of the opinion that their purpose might be effected, they let the ship go and went sailing down the side of Crete, very near to the land.
14 But after a little time, a very violent wind, named Euraquilo, came down from it with great force.
15 And when the ship got into the grip of it, and was not able to make headway into the wind, we gave way, and went before it.
16 And, sailing near the side of a small island named Cauda, we were able, though it was hard work, to make the ship's boat safe:
17 And having got it up, they put cords under and round the ship; but fearing that they might be pushed on to the Syrtis, they let down the sails and so went running before the wind.
18 And, still fighting the storm with all our strength, the day after they made a start at getting the goods out of the ship;
19 And on the third day, they let all the sailing apparatus go over the side.
20 And as we had not seen the sun or stars for a long time, and a great storm was on us, all hope of salvation was gone.
21 And when they had been without food for a long time, Paul got up among them and said, Friends, it would have been better if you had given attention to me and not gone sailing out from Crete, to undergo this damage and loss.
22 But now, I say to you, be of good heart, for there will be no loss of life, but only of the ship.
23 For this night there came to my side an angel of the God who is my Master and whose servant I am,
24 Saying, Have no fear, Paul, for you will come before Caesar, and God has given to you all those who are sailing with you.
25 And so, O men, be of good heart, for I have faith in God that it will be as he said to me.
26 But we will be sent on to a certain island.
27 But when the fourteenth day came, while we were going here and there in the Adriatic sea, about the middle of the night the sailors had an idea that they were getting near land;
28 And they let down the lead, and saw that the sea was a hundred and twenty feet deep; and after a little time they did it again and it was ninety feet.
29 Then, fearing that by chance we might come on to the rocks, they let down four hooks from the back of the ship, and made prayers for the coming of day.
30 Then the sailors made attempts secretly to get away from the ship, letting down a boat as if they were about to put down hooks from the front of the ship;
31 But Paul said to the captain and his men, If you do not keep these men in the ship, you will not be safe.
32 Then the armed men, cutting the cords of the boat, let her go.
33 And when dawn was near, Paul gave them all orders to take food, saying, This is the fourteenth day you have been waiting and taking no food.
34 So I make request to you to take food; for this is for your salvation: not a hair from the head of any of you will come to destruction.
35 And when he had said this and had taken bread, he gave praise to God before them all, and took a meal of the broken bread.
36 Then they all took heart and did the same.
37 And we were, in the ship, two hundred and seventy-six persons.
38 And when they had had enough food, they made the weight of the ship less, turning the grain out into the sea.
39 And when it was day, they had no knowledge of the land, but they saw an inlet of the sea with a floor of sand, and they had the idea of driving the ship up on to it if possible.
40 So cutting away the hooks, and letting them go into the sea, and freeing the cords of the guiding-blades, and lifting up the sail to the wind, they went in the direction of the inlet.
41 And coming to a point between two seas, they got the ship to land; and the front part was fixed in the sand and not able to be moved, but the back part was broken by the force of the waves.
42 Then the armed men were for putting the prisoners to death, so that no one would get away by swimming.
43 But the captain, desiring to keep Paul safe, kept them from their purpose, and gave orders that those who had knowledge of swimming were to go off the ship and get first to land:
44 And the rest, some on boards and some on things from the ship. And so it came about that they all got safe to land.
