Atos 27
OEB: Open English Bible (US Spelling) (SM_OEB) vs VC
1 As it was decided that we were to sail to Italy, Paul and some other prisoners were put in charge of a captain of the Augustan Guard, named Julius.
1 Logo que foi determinado que embarcássemos para a Itália, Paulo foi entregue com outros presos a um centurião da coorte Augusta, chamado Júlio.
2 We went on board a ship from Adramyttium, which was on the point of sailing to the ports along the coast of Roman Asia, and put to sea. Aristarchus, a Macedonian from Thessalonica, went with us.
2 Embarcamos num navio de Adramito que devia costear as terras da Ásia, e levantamos âncora. Em nossa companhia estava Aristarco, macedônio de Tessalônica.
3 The next day we put in to Sidon, where Julius treated Paul in a friendly manner, and allowed him to go to see his friends and receive their hospitality.
3 No dia seguinte, fazendo escala em Sidônia, Júlio, usando de bondade com Paulo, permitiu-lhe ir ver os seus amigos e prover-se do que havia de necessário.
4 Putting to sea again, we sailed under the lee of Cyprus, because the wind was against us;
4 Dali, fazendo-nos ao mar, fomos navegando perto das costas de Chipre, por nos serem contrários os ventos.
5 and, after crossing the sea of Cilicia and Pamphylia, we reached Myra in Lycia.
5 Tendo atravessado o mar da Cilícia e da Panfília, chegamos a Mira, cidade da Lícia.
6 There the Roman officer found an Alexandrian ship on her way to Italy, and put us on board of her.
6 O centurião encontrou ali um navio de Alexandria, que rumava para a Itália, e fez-nos passar para ele.
7 For several days our progress was slow, and it was only with difficulty that we arrived off Cnidus. As the wind was still unfavorable when we came off Cape Salmone, we sailed under the lee of Crete,
7 Por muitos dias navegamos lentamente e com dificuldade até diante de Cnido, onde o vento não nos permitiu aportar.
8 and with difficulty, by keeping close in shore, we reached a place called ‘Fair Havens,’ near which was the town of Lasea.
8 Fomos então costeando ao sul da ilha de Creta, junto ao cabo Salmona. Navegando com dificuldade ao longo da costa, chegamos afinal a um lugar, a que chamam Bons Portos, perto do qual está a cidade de Lasaia.
9 This had taken a considerable time, and sailing was already dangerous, for the Fast was already over; and so Paul gave this warning.
9 Passara o tempo - já havia passado a época do jejum - e a navegação se tornava perigosa. Paulo advertiu-os:
10 “My friends,” he said, “I see that this voyage will be attended with injury and much damage, not only to the cargo and the ship, but to our own lives also.”
10 Amigos, vejo que a navegação não se fará sem perigo e sem graves danos, não somente ao navio e à sua carga, mas ainda às nossas vidas.
11 The Roman officer, however, was more influenced by the captain and the owner than by what was said by Paul.
11 O centurião, porém, dava mais crédito ao piloto e ao mestre do que ao que Paulo dizia.
12 And, as the harbor was not a suitable one to winter in, the majority were in favor of continuing the voyage, in hope of being able to reach Phoenix, and winter there. Phoenix was a Cretan harbor, open to the north-east and south-east.
12 O porto era impróprio para passar o inverno, pelo que a maior parte deles foi de parecer que se retornasse ao mar, na esperança de chegar a Fenice, para passar ali o inverno, por ser esse um porto de Creta, abrigado dos ventos do sudeste e do nordeste.
13 So, when a light wind sprang up from the south, thinking that they had found their opportunity, they weighed anchor and kept along the coast of Crete, close in shore.
13 Soprava então brandamente o vento sul. Julgavam poder executar os seus planos. Levantaram a âncora e foram costeando de perto a ilha de Creta.
14 But shortly afterwards a hurricane came down on us off the land — a north-easter, as it is called.
14 Mas, não muito depois, veio do lado da ilha um tufão chamado Euroaquilão.
15 The ship was caught by it and was unable to keep her head to the wind, so we had to give way and let her drive before it.
15 Sem poder resistir à ventania, o navio foi arrebatado e deixamo-nos arrastar.
16 Running under the lee of a small island called Cauda, we only just managed to secure the ship’s boat,
16 Impelidos rapidamente para uma pequena ilha chamada Cauda, conseguimos, com muito esforço, recolher o batel.
17 and, after hoisting it on board, the men frapped the ship. But, afraid of being driven on to the Syrtis Sands, they lowered the yard, and then drifted.
17 Içaram-no e, depois, como meio de segurança, cingiram o navio com cabos. Então, temendo encalhar em Sirte, arriaram as velas e entregaram-se à mercê dos ventos.
18 So violently were we tossed about by the storm, that the next day they began throwing the cargo overboard,
18 No dia seguinte, sendo a tempestade ainda mais violenta, atiraram fora a carga.
19 and, on the following day, threw out the ship’s tackle with their own hands.
19 No terceiro dia, atiramos para fora com as nossas próprias mãos os acessórios do navio.
20 As neither sun nor stars were visible for several days, and, as the gale still continued severe, all hope of our being saved was at last abandoned.
20 Ora, não aparecendo por muitos dias nem sol nem estrelas e sendo batidos por forte tempestade, tínhamos por fim perdido toda a esperança de sermos salvos.
21 It was then, when they had gone a long time without food, that Paul came forward, and said: “My friends, you should have listened to me, and not have sailed from Crete and so incurred this injury and damage.
21 Desde muito tempo ninguém havia comido nada. Paulo levantou-se no meio deles e disse: Amigos, deveras devíeis ter-me atendido e não ter saído de Creta, e assim evitar esse perigo e essas perdas.
22 Yet, even as things are, I beg you not to lose courage, for there will not be a single life lost among you — only the ship.
22 Agora, porém, vos admoesto a que tenhais coragem, pois não perecerá nenhum de vós, mas somente o navio.
23 For last night an angel of the God to whom I belong, and whom I serve, stood by me, and said —
23 Esta noite apareceu-me um anjo de Deus, a quem pertenço e a quem sirvo, o qual me disse:
24 ‘Have no fear, Paul; you must appear before the Emperor, and God himself has given you the lives of all your fellow voyagers.’
24 Não temas, Paulo. É necessário que compareças diante de César. Deus deu-te todos os que navegam contigo.
25 Therefore, courage, my friends! For I believe God, that everything will happen exactly as I have been told.
25 Por isso, amigos, coragem! Eu confio em Deus que há de acontecer como me foi dito.
26 We will, however, have to be driven on some island.”
26 Vamos dar a uma ilha.
27 It was now the fourteenth night of the storm, and we were drifting about in the Adriatic Sea, when, about midnight, the sailors began to suspect that they were drawing near land.
27 Já estávamos na décima quarta noite, pelo mar Adriático, quando, pela meia-noite, os marinheiros pressentiram que estavam perto de alguma terra.
28 So they took soundings, and found twenty fathoms of water. After waiting a little, they took soundings again, and found fifteen fathoms.
28 Então, atirando a sonda, perceberam que a profundidade era de vinte braças. Depois, um pouco mais adiante, viram que era de quinze braças.
29 Then, as they were afraid of our being driven on some rocky coast, they let go four anchors from the stern, and longed for daylight.
29 Temendo que déssemos em algum recife, lançaram quatro âncoras da popa, esperando ansiosos que amanhecesse o dia.
30 The sailors wanted to leave the ship, and had lowered the boat, on pretense of running out anchors from the bows,
30 Imediatamente, os marinheiros procuraram fugir e, sob o pretexto de largar as âncoras da proa, lançaram o bote ao mar.
31 when Paul said to the Roman officer and his men: “Unless the sailors remain on board, you cannot be saved.”
31 Paulo disse ao centurião e aos soldados: Se estes homens não permanecerem no navio, não podereis salvar-vos.
32 So the soldiers cut the ropes which held the boat, and let her drift away.
32 Os soldados cortaram, então, os cabos do bote e deixaram-no cair.
33 In the interval before daybreak Paul kept urging them all to take something to eat. “It is a fortnight today,” he said, “that, owing to your anxiety, you have gone without food, taking nothing.
33 Enquanto ia amanhecendo, Paulo encorajou a todos que comessem alguma coisa, e disse: Já faz hoje catorze dias que estais em jejum, sem comer nada.
34 So I beg you to take something to eat; your safety depends on it, for not one of you will lose even a hair of his head.”
34 Rogo-vos que comais alguma coisa, no interesse de vossa vida, porque nem um cabelo da cabeça de alguém de vós perecerá.
35 With these words he took some bread, and, after saying the thanksgiving to God before them all, broke it in pieces, and began to eat;
35 Tendo dito isso, tomou do pão, pronunciou uma bênção na presença de todos e, depois de parti-lo, começou a comer.
36 and the men all felt cheered and had something to eat themselves.
36 Com isso, todos cobraram ânimo e puseram-se igualmente a comer.
37 There were about seventy-six of us on board, all told.
37 No navio éramos ao todo duzentas e setenta e seis pessoas.
38 After satisfying their hunger, they further lightened the ship by throwing the grain into the sea.
38 Depois de terem comido à vontade, aliviaram o navio, atirando o trigo ao mar.
39 When daylight came, they could not make out what land it was, but, observing a creek in which there was a beach, they consulted as to whether they could run the ship safely into it.
39 Afinal, clareou o dia. Os marinheiros não reconheceram a terra, mas viram uma enseada com uma praia, na qual tencionavam encalhar o navio, caso o pudessem.
40 Then they cast off, and abandoned the anchors, and at the same time unlashed the gear of the steering oars, hoisted the foresail to the wind, and made for the beach.
40 Levantaram as âncoras e largaram ao mesmo tempo as amarras dos lemes. Desfraldaram ao vento a vela mestra e rumaram para a praia.
41 They got, however, into a kind of channel, and there ran the ship aground. The bows stuck fast and could not be moved, while the stern began breaking up under the strain.
41 Mas deram numa língua de terra, e o navio encalhou aí. A proa, encalhada, permanecia imóvel, ao mesmo tempo que a popa se abria com a força do mar.
42 The advice of the soldiers was that the prisoners should be killed, so that none of them could swim away and make their escape.
42 Os soldados tencionavam matar os presos, por temerem que algum deles fugisse a nado.
43 But the Roman officer, anxious to save Paul, prevented their carrying out their intention, and ordered that those who could swim should be the first to jump into the sea and try to reach the shore;
43 O centurião, porém, querendo salvar Paulo, impediu que o fizessem e ordenou que aqueles que pudessem nadar fossem os primeiros a lançar-se ao mar e alcançar a terra.
44 and that the rest should follow, some on planks, and others on different pieces of the ship. In these various ways everyone managed to get safely ashore.
44 Os demais, uns atingiram a terra em tábuas, outros em cima dos destroços do navio. Desse modo, todos conseguiram chegar à terra, sãos e salvos.
