IzEnzo 27

¹Kwathi sekunqunyiwe ukuthi siye e-Italiya ngomkhumbi, banikela uPawulu nezinye iziboshwa ezithile enduneni yekhulu, igama layo linguJuliyu, webutho lika-Awugustu.

²Sangena emkhunjini wase-Adramitiyu, owawusizodabula ezindaweni zase-Asiya, sasuka; kwakukhona u-Aristarku umMakedoniya waseThesalonika enathi.

³Ngangomuso safika eSidoni; UJuliyu waphatha uPawulu ngobubele, wamvumela ukuba aye kubangane bakhe, athole usizo.

⁴Sasuka lapho, sagudla ngenzansi kweKhupro, ngokuba imimoya yayiphambene.

⁵Sadabula ulwandle lwaseKhilikhiya nasePhamfiliya, safika eMira yaseLisiya.

⁶Khona induna yafumana umkhumbi wase-Aleksandriya oya e-Italiya; wasifaka khona.

⁷Sesihambe kancane izinsuku eziningi, safika kalukhuni ngaseKinidu, umoya ungasivumeli, sagudla iKrethe malungana neSalimone;

⁸Sase sihamba kalukhuni safika endaweni ethiwa Amatheku Amahle; eduze kwalapho kwakukhona umuzi waseLaseya.

⁹Kwathi sesidlulile isikhathi eside, lokuhamba ngomkhumbi sekuyingozi, ngoba ukuzila ukudla kwasekudlulile, uPawuli wabalaya;

¹⁰Wasesithi kubo: Madoda, ngiyabona ukuthi loluhambo luzakuba lokulimala lomonakalo omkhulu, kungeyisiwo owempahla lomkhumbi kuphela, kodwa lempilo yethu.

¹¹Nokho induna yekhulu yakholwa umshayeli nomnikazi womkhumbi kunalezo ezazishiwo uPawulu.

¹²Kwathi ngenxa yokuthi itheku lalingekuhle ukuhlala ebusika kulo, abanengi bacebisana nokuthi kusuke lapho, ukuba mhlawumbe bafike eFenike, balale khona ubusika; eliyitheku laseKrethe, elibheke eningizimu-ntshonalanga nasenyakatho-ntshonalanga.

¹³Kuthe umoya waseningizimu uphephetha kancane, bathi sebekuzuzile ababekuhlosile, basuka lapho, bagudla iKrethe.

¹⁴Kodwa kungakabiphi, kwavuka phezu kwawo isivunguvungu esithiwa iYurakilidoni;

¹⁵Kwathi umkhumbi wabanjwa, wehluleka ukumelana nomoya, sawuyeka.

¹⁶Sase sigijima ngaphansi kwesihlenge esithiwa iKlawuda, kwaba nomsebenzi omningi ukuwuhamba umkhumbi;

¹⁷Sebewuthathile, basebenzisa izinsiza, bebopha umkhumbi ngaphansi; besaba ukuthi bangawela esihlabathini esimanzi, banqamula useyili, baqhutshwa kanjalo.

¹⁸Kwathi sesipheshulwa kakhulu yisiphepho, ngangomuso bakhulula umkhumbi;

¹⁹Kwathi ngosuku lwesithathu salahla izikhali zomkhumbi ngezandla zethu.

²⁰Kwathi kungabonanga ilanga nezinkanyezi izinsuku eziningi, nesiphepho esingesincane sinamandla, lase laphela lonke ithemba lokuthi singasindiswa.

²¹Kwathi emva kokuzila isikhathi eside, uPawulu wema phakathi kwabo, wathi: “Madoda, ngabe nangilalela, anasuka eKrethe, nazuza kulokhu kubi nokulahlekelwa.

²²Kepha manje ngiyanincenga ukuba nibe nesibindi, ngokuba akuyikulahlekelwa muntu phakathi kwenu, kuphela umkhumbi.

²³Ngoba kulobubusuku bekumi kimi ingilosi kaNkulunkulu engingowakhe, lengimkhonzayo,

²⁴Isithi: Ungesabi, Pawuli; umelwe ukumiswa phambi kukaKesari; bheka, uNkulunkulu ukunikile bonke abahamba nawe ngomkhumbi.

²⁵Ngakho yimani isibindi, madoda, ngokuba ngiyakholwa nguNkulunkulu ukuthi kuyakuba njengalokho engitsheliwe.

²⁶Kodwa simelwe ukuphonswa esiqhingini esithile.

²⁷Kwathi sekufike ubusuku beshumi nane, sisazulazula e-Adriya, phakathi kobusuku abaqhubi bemikhumbi bacabanga ukuthi sebesondele ezweni elithile;

²⁸Baphonsa ukulinganisa, bafumana kungamafathome angamashumi amabili;

²⁹Khona besaba ukuthi mhlawumbe singawela phezu kwamadwala, baphosela amahange amane ngemva komkhumbi, bafisa ukuthi kuse.

³⁰Abaqhubi bemikhumbi sebezabaleka emkhunjini, behlisela umkhumbi olwandle, kungathi baphonse amahange emkhunjini.

³¹UPawuli wathi enduneni yekhulu nasemabuthweni: Uma laba bengahlali emkhunjini, aninakusindiswa.

³²Khona amabutho anqamula izintambo zomkhumbi, awuyeka wawa.

³³Kwathi sekuzakusa, uPawulu wabancenga bonke ukuba badle, wathi: “Namuhla kulusuku lweshumi nane nilindile, nizila ukudla, ningadli lutho.

³⁴Ngakho ngiyanincenga ukuba nidle, ngokuba lokhu kungenxa yempilo yenu, ngokuba akuyikuwa nalunwele lwekhanda lomunye wenu.

³⁵Eseshilo lokho wathatha isinkwa, wabonga uNkulunkulu phambi kwabo bonke, wasihlephula, waqala ukudla.

³⁶Base beba nesibindi bonke, badla nabo.

³⁷Sasisonke emkhunjini siyimiphefumulo engamakhulu amabili namashumi ayisikhombisa nesithupha.

³⁸Sebesuthi, bawenza lula umkhumbi, baphonsa ukolweni olwandle.

³⁹Kwathi sekusile, abalazanga ilizwe, kodwa bathola umfula othile ologu, abazimisela kuwo ukuthi bawuqhube umkhumbi, uba kungenzeka.

⁴⁰Sebekhuphulile amahange, bawayekela olwandle, bathukulula izibopho zokuqondisa, baphakamisela emoyeni useyili wangaphambili, baqonda ogwini.

⁴¹Sebefikile endaweni lapho kuhlangana khona ulwandle olubili, umkhumbi waguqa; ingaphambili lanamathela, lahlala lingenakunyakaziswa, kepha ingemuva laphuka ngamandla amaza.

⁴²Lapho icebo lamasosha lalingukubulala iziboshwa, funa zibhukude zibaleke.

⁴³Kodwa induna yekhulu ithanda ukusindisa uPawuli, yabavimba enjongweni yabo; walaya ukuthi labo abakwaziyo ukubhukuda baziphonse kuqala elwandle, baye emhlabathini;

⁴⁴abaseleyo, abanye phezu kwamapulangwe, abanye phezu kweziqephu zomkhumbi. Kwasekusithi babaleka bonke, bafika emhlabathini.
