ylt - Acts:27:9-28:10

ylt@Acts:27:9 @And much time being spent, and the sailing being now dangerous -- because of the fast also being already past -- Paul was admonishing,

ylt@Acts:27:10 @saying to them, 'Men, I perceive that with hurt, and much damage, not only of the lading and of the ship, but also of our lives -- the voyage is about to be;'

ylt@Acts:27:11 @but the centurion to the pilot and to the shipowner gave credence more than to the things spoken by Paul;

ylt@Acts:27:12 @and the haven being incommodious to winter in, the more part gave counsel to sail thence also, if by any means they might be able, having attained to Phenice, [there] to winter, [which is] a haven of Crete, looking to the south-west and north-west,

ylt@Acts:27:13 @and a south wind blowing softly, having thought they had obtained [their] purpose, having lifted anchor, they sailed close by Crete,

ylt@Acts:27:14 @and not long after there arose against it a tempestuous wind, that is called Euroclydon,

ylt@Acts:27:15 @and the ship being caught, and not being able to bear up against the wind, having given [her] up, we were borne on,

ylt@Acts:27:16 @and having run under a certain little isle, called Clauda, we were hardly able to become masters of the boat,

ylt@Acts:27:17 @which having taken up, they were using helps, undergirding the ship, and fearing lest they may fall on the quicksand, having let down the mast -- so were borne on.

ylt@Acts:27:18 @And we, being exceedingly tempest-tossed, the succeeding [day] they were making a clearing,

ylt@Acts:27:19 @and on the third [day] with our own hands the tackling of the ship we cast out,

ylt@Acts:27:20 @and neither sun nor stars appearing for more days, and not a little tempest lying upon us, thenceforth all hope was taken away of our being saved.

ylt@Acts:27:21 @And there having been long fasting, then Paul having stood in the midst of them, said, 'It behoved [you], indeed, O men -- having hearkened to me -- not to set sail from Crete, and to save this hurt and damage;

ylt@Acts:27:22 @and now I exhort you to be of good cheer, for there shall be no loss of life among you -- but of the ship;

ylt@Acts:27:23 @for there stood by me this night a messenger of God -- whose I am, and whom I serve --

ylt@Acts:27:24 @saying, Be not afraid Paul; before Caesar it behoveth thee to stand; and, lo, God hath granted to thee all those sailing with thee;

ylt@Acts:27:25 @wherefore be of good cheer, men! for I believe God, that so it shall be, even as it hath been spoken to me,

ylt@Acts:27:26 @and on a certain island it behoveth us to be cast.'

ylt@Acts:27:27 @And when the fourteenth night came -- we being borne up and down in the Adria -- toward the middle of the night the sailors were supposing that some country drew nigh to them;

ylt@Acts:27:28 @and having sounded they found twenty fathoms, and having gone a little farther, and again having sounded, they found fifteen fathoms,

ylt@Acts:27:29 @and fearing lest on rough places we may fall, out of the stern having cast four anchors, they were wishing day to come.

ylt@Acts:27:30 @And the sailors seeking to flee out of the ship, and having let down the boat to the sea, in pretence as [if] out of the foreship they are about to cast anchors,

ylt@Acts:27:31 @Paul said to the centurion and to the soldiers, 'If these do not remain in the ship -- ye are not able to be saved;'

ylt@Acts:27:32 @then the soldiers did cut off the ropes of the boat, and suffered it to fall off.

ylt@Acts:27:33 @And till the day was about to be, Paul was calling upon all to partake of nourishment, saying, 'Fourteen days to-day, waiting, ye continue fasting, having taken nothing,

ylt@Acts:27:34 @wherefore I call upon you to take nourishment, for this is for your safety, for of not one of you shall a hair from the head fall;'

ylt@Acts:27:35 @and having said these things, and having taken bread, he gave thanks to God before all, and having broken [it], he began to eat;

ylt@Acts:27:36 @and all having become of good cheer, themselves also took food,

ylt@Acts:27:37 @(and we were -- all the souls in the ship -- two hundred, seventy and six),

ylt@Acts:27:38 @and having eaten sufficient nourishment, they were lightening the ship, casting forth the wheat into the sea.

ylt@Acts:27:39 @And when the day came, they were not discerning the land, but a certain creek were perceiving having a beach, into which they took counsel, if possible, to thrust forward the ship,

ylt@Acts:27:40 @and the anchors having taken up, they were committing [it] to the sea, at the same time -- having loosed the bands of the rudders, and having hoisted up the mainsail to the wind -- they were making for the shore,

ylt@Acts:27:41 @and having fallen into a place of two seas, they ran the ship aground, and the fore-part, indeed, having stuck fast, did remain immoveable, but the hinder-part was broken by the violence of the waves.

ylt@Acts:27:42 @And the soldiers' counsel was that they should kill the prisoners, lest any one having swam out should escape,

ylt@Acts:27:43 @but the centurion, wishing to save Paul, hindered them from the counsel, and did command those able to swim, having cast themselves out first -- to get unto the land,

ylt@Acts:27:44 @and the rest, some indeed upon boards, and some upon certain things of the ship; and thus it came to pass that all came safe unto the land.

ylt@Acts:28:1 @And having been saved, then they knew that the island is called Melita,

ylt@Acts:28:2 @and the foreigners were shewing us no ordinary kindness, for having kindled a fire, they received us all, because of the pressing rain, and because of the cold;

ylt@Acts:28:3 @but Paul having gathered together a quantity of sticks, and having laid [them] upon the fire, a viper -- out of the heat having come -- did fasten on his hand.

ylt@Acts:28:4 @And when the foreigners saw the beast hanging from his hand, they said unto one another, 'Certainly this man is a murderer, whom, having been saved out of the sea, the justice did not suffer to live;'

ylt@Acts:28:5 @he then, indeed, having shaken off the beast into the fire, suffered no evil,

ylt@Acts:28:6 @and they were expecting him to be about to be inflamed, or to fall down suddenly dead, and they, expecting [it] a long time, and seeing nothing uncommon happening to him, changing [their] minds, said he was a god.

ylt@Acts:28:7 @And in the neighbourhood of that place were lands of the principal man of the island, by name Publius, who, having received us, three days did courteously lodge [us];

ylt@Acts:28:8 @and it came to pass, the father of Publius with feverish heats and dysentery pressed, was laid, unto whom Paul having entered, and having prayed, having laid [his] hands on him, healed him;

ylt@Acts:28:9 @this, therefore, being done, the others also in the island having infirmities were coming and were healed;

ylt@Acts:28:10 @who also with many honours did honour us, and we setting sail -- they were lading [us] with the things that were necessary.
