Hechos 27

Pablo es enviado a Roma

27 Cuando se decidió que habíamos de navegar para Italia, entregaron a Pablo y a algunos otros presos a un centurión llamado Julio, de la compañía Augusta. 2 Y embarcándonos en una nave adramitena que iba a tocar los puertos de Asia, zarpamos, estando con nosotros Aristarco, macedonio de Tesalónica. 3 Al otro día llegamos a Sidón; y Julio, tratando humanamente a Pablo, le permitió que fuese a los amigos, para ser atendido por ellos. 4 Y haciéndonos a la vela desde allí, navegamos a sotavento de Chipre, porque los vientos eran contrarios. 5 Habiendo atravesado el mar frente a Cilicia y Panfilia, arribamos a Mira, ciudad de Licia. 6 Y hallando allí el centurión una nave alejandrina que zarpaba para Italia, nos embarcó en ella. 7 Navegando muchos días despacio, y llegando a duras penas frente a Gnido, porque nos impedía el viento, navegamos a sotavento de Creta, frente a Salmón. 8 Y costeándola con dificultad, llegamos a un lugar que llaman Buenos Puertos, cerca del cual estaba la ciudad de Lasea.

9 Y habiendo pasado mucho tiempo, y siendo ya peligrosa la navegación, por haber pasado ya el ayuno, Pablo les amonestaba, 10 diciéndoles: Varones, veo que la navegación va a ser con perjuicio y mucha pérdida, no solo del cargamento y de la nave, sino también de nuestras personas. 11 Pero el centurión daba más crédito al piloto y al patrón de la nave, que a lo que Pablo decía. 12 Y siendo incómodo el puerto para invernar, la mayoría acordó zarpar también de allí, por si pudiesen arribar a Fenice, puerto de Creta que mira al nordeste y sudeste, e invernar allí.

La tempestad en el mar

13 Y soplando una brisa del sur, pareciéndoles que ya tenían lo que deseaban, levaron anclas e iban costeando Creta. 14 Pero no mucho después dio contra la nave un viento huracanado llamado Euroclidón. 15 Y siendo arrebatada la nave, y no pudiendo poner proa al viento, nos abandonamos a él y nos dejamos llevar. 16 Y habiendo corrido a sotavento de una pequeña isla llamada Clauda, con dificultad pudimos recoger el esquife. 17 Y una vez subido a bordo, usaron de refuerzos para ceñir la nave; y teniendo temor de dar en la Sirte, arriaron las velas y quedaron a la deriva. 18 Pero siendo combatidos por una furiosa tempestad, al siguiente día empezaron a alijar, 19 y al tercer día con nuestras propias manos arrojamos los aparejos de la nave. 20 Y no apareciendo ni sol ni estrellas por muchos días, y acosados por una tempestad no pequeña, ya habíamos perdido toda esperanza de salvarnos.

21 Entonces Pablo, como hacía ya mucho que no comíamos, puesto en pie en medio de ellos, dijo: Habría sido por cierto conveniente, oh varones, haberme oído, y no zarpar de Creta tan solo para recibir este perjuicio y pérdida. 22 Pero ahora os exhorto a tener buen ánimo, pues no habrá ninguna pérdida de vida entre vosotros, sino solamente de la nave. 23 Porque esta noche ha estado conmigo el ángel del Dios de quien soy y a quien sirvo, 24 diciendo: Pablo, no temas; es necesario que comparezcas ante César; y he aquí, Dios te ha concedido todos los que navegan contigo. 25 Por tanto, oh varones, tened buen ánimo; porque yo confío en Dios que será así como se me ha dicho. 26 Con todo, es necesario que demos en alguna isla.

27 Venida la decimacuarta noche, y siendo llevados a través del mar Adriático, a la medianoche los marineros sospecharon que estaban cerca de tierra; 28 y echando la sonda, hallaron veinte brazas; y pasando un poco más adelante, volviendo a echar la sonda, hallaron quince brazas. 29 Y temiendo dar en escollos, echaron cuatro anclas por la popa, y ansiaban que se hiciese de día. 30 Entonces los marineros procuraron huir de la nave, y echando el esquife al mar, aparentaban como que querían largar las anclas de proa. 31 Pero Pablo dijo al centurión y a los soldados: Si estos no permanecen en la nave, vosotros no podéis salvaros. 32 Entonces los soldados cortaron las amarras del esquife y lo dejaron perderse.

33 Cuando comenzó a amanecer, Pablo exhortaba a todos que comiesen, diciendo: Este es el decimocuarto día que veláis y permanecéis en ayunas, sin comer nada. 34 Por tanto, os ruego que comáis por vuestra salud; pues ni aun un cabello de la cabeza de ninguno de vosotros perecerá. 35 Y habiendo dicho esto, tomó el pan y dio gracias a Dios en presencia de todos, y partiéndolo, comenzó a comer. 36 Entonces todos, teniendo ya mejor ánimo, comieron también. 37 Y éramos todas las personas en la nave doscientas setenta y seis. 38 Y ya satisfechos, aligeraron la nave, echando el trigo al mar.

El naufragio

39 Cuando se hizo de día, no reconocían la tierra, pero veían una ensenada que tenía playa, en la cual acordaron varar, si pudiesen, la nave. 40 Cortando, pues, las anclas, las dejaron en el mar, largando también las amarras del timón; e izada al viento la vela de proa, enfilaron hacia la playa. 41 Pero dando en un lugar de dos aguas, hicieron encallar la nave; y la proa, hincada, quedó inmóvil, y la popa se abría con la violencia del mar. 42 Entonces los soldados acordaron matar a los presos, para que ninguno se fugase nadando. 43 Pero el centurión, queriendo salvar a Pablo, les impidió este intento, y mandó que los que pudiesen nadar se echasen los primeros, y saliesen a tierra; 44 y los demás, parte en tablas, parte en cosas de la nave. Y así aconteció que todos se salvaron saliendo a tierra.

Paul Is Sent to Rome

27 Now when it was decided that (A)we (B)would sail for (C)Italy, they proceeded to turn Paul and some other prisoners over to a centurion of the Augustan [a](D)cohort, named Julius. 2 And we boarded an Adramyttian ship that was about to sail to the regions along the coast of [b](E)Asia, and put out to sea accompanied by (F)Aristarchus, a (G)Macedonian of (H)Thessalonica. 3 The next day we put in at (I)Sidon; and Julius (J)treated Paul with consideration and (K)allowed him to go to his friends and receive care. 4 From there we put out to sea and sailed under the shelter of (L)Cyprus, because (M)the winds were contrary. 5 When we had sailed through the sea along the coast of (N)Cilicia and (O)Pamphylia, we landed at Myra in Lycia. 6 There the centurion found an (P)Alexandrian ship sailing for (Q)Italy, and he put us aboard it. 7 When we had sailed slowly for a good many days, and with difficulty had arrived off Cnidus, (R)since the wind did not permit us to go farther, we sailed under the shelter of (S)Crete, off Salmone; 8 and with difficulty (T)sailing past it, we came to a place called Fair Havens, near which was the city of Lasea.

9 When considerable time had passed and the voyage was now dangerous, since even (U)the [c]fast was already over, Paul started admonishing them, 10 saying to them, “Men, I perceive that the voyage will certainly be with (V)damage and great loss, not only of the cargo and the ship, but also of our lives.” 11 But the centurion was more persuaded by the (W)pilot and the [d]captain of the ship than by what was being said by Paul. 12 The harbor was not suitable for wintering, so the majority reached a decision to put out to sea from there, if somehow they could reach Phoenix, a harbor of (X)Crete facing southwest and northwest, and spend the winter there.

13 [e]When a moderate south wind came up, thinking that they had attained their purpose, they weighed anchor and began (Y)sailing along (Z)Crete, closer to shore.

Shipwreck

14 But before very long a violent wind, called [f]Euraquilo, (AA)rushed down from [g]the land; 15 and when the ship was caught in it and could not head up into the wind, we gave up and let ourselves be driven by the wind. 16 Running under the shelter of a small island called Cauda, we were able to get the ship’s [h]boat under control only with difficulty. 17 After they had hoisted it up, they used [i]supporting cables in undergirding the ship; and fearing that they might (AB)run aground on the shallows of Syrtis, they let down the [j]sea anchor and let themselves be driven along in this way. 18 The next day as we were being violently tossed by the storm, [k]they began to (AC)jettison the cargo; 19 and on the third day they threw the ship’s tackle overboard with their own hands. 20 Since neither sun nor stars appeared for many days, and no small storm was assailing us, from then on all hope of our being saved was slowly abandoned.

21 [l]When many had lost their appetites, Paul then stood among them and said, “[m](AD)Men, you should have followed my advice and not have set sail from (AE)Crete, and thereby spared yourselves this (AF)damage and loss. 22 And yet now I urge you to (AG)keep up your courage, for there will be no loss of life among you, but only of the ship. 23 For this very night (AH)an angel of the God to whom I belong, (AI)whom I also serve, (AJ)came to me, 24 saying, ‘Do not be afraid, Paul; (AK)you must stand before Caesar; and behold, God has graciously granted you (AL)all those who are sailing with you.’ 25 Therefore, (AM)keep up your courage, men, for I believe God that [n]it will turn out exactly as I have been told. 26 But we must (AN)run aground on a certain (AO)island.”

27 But when the fourteenth night came, as we were being driven about in the Adriatic Sea, about midnight the sailors began to suspect that [o]they were approaching some land. 28 And they took soundings and found it to be twenty fathoms; and a little farther on they took another sounding and found it to be fifteen fathoms. 29 Fearing that we might (AP)run aground somewhere on the [p]rocks, they cast four anchors from the stern and [q]prayed for daybreak. 30 But as the sailors were trying to escape from the ship and had let down (AQ)the ship’s boat into the sea, on the pretense that they were going to lay out anchors from the bow, 31 Paul said to the centurion and the soldiers, “Unless these men remain on the ship, you yourselves cannot be saved.” 32 Then the soldiers cut away the (AR)ropes of the ship’s boat and let it fall away.

33 Until the day was about to dawn, Paul kept encouraging them all to take some food, saying, “Today is the fourteenth day that you have been constantly watching and going without eating, having taken in nothing. 34 Therefore, I encourage you to take some food, for this is for your survival, for (AS)not a hair from the head of any of you will perish.” 35 Having said this, he took bread and (AT)gave thanks to God in the presence of them all, and he broke it and began to eat. 36 All (AU)of them [r]were encouraged and they themselves also took food. 37 We were 276 [s](AV)people on the ship in all. 38 When they had eaten enough, they began lightening the ship by (AW)throwing the wheat out into the sea.

39 Now when day came, (AX)they [t]could not recognize the land; but they did notice a bay with a beach, and they resolved to run the ship onto it if they could. 40 And casting off (AY)the anchors, they left them in the sea while at the same time they were loosening the ropes of the rudders; and they hoisted the foresail to the wind and were heading for the beach. 41 But they struck a [u]reef where two seas met and ran the ship aground; and the prow stuck firmly and remained immovable, while the stern started to break up due to the force of the waves. 42 The soldiers’ plan was to (AZ)kill the prisoners, so that none of them would swim away and escape; 43 but the centurion, (BA)wanting to bring Paul safely through, kept them from accomplishing their intention, and commanded that those who could swim were to [v]jump overboard first and get to land, 44 and the rest were to follow, some on planks, and others on various things from the ship. And so it happened that (BB)they all were brought safely to land.
