Acts 27:21-26 in English

²¹ And when they had been long without food, then Paul stood forth in the midst of them, and said, Sirs, ye should have hearkened unto me, and not have set sail from Crete, and have gotten this injury and loss.

²² And now I exhort you to be of good cheer; for there shall be no loss of life among you, but only of the ship.

²³ For there stood by me this night an angel of the God whose I am, whom also I serve,

²⁴ saying, Fear not, Paul; thou must stand before Cæsar: and lo, God hath granted thee all them that sail with thee.

²⁵ Wherefore, sirs, be of good cheer: for I believe God, that it shall be even so as it hath been spoken unto me.

²⁶ But we must be cast upon a certain island.

²¹ But after long abstinence Paul stood forth in the midst of them, and said, Sirs, ye should have hearkened unto me, and not have loosed from Crete, and to have gained this harm and loss.

²² And now I exhort you to be of good cheer: for there shall be no loss of any man’s life among you, but of the ship.

²³ For there stood by me this night the angel of God, whose I am, and whom I serve,

²⁴ Saying, Fear not, Paul; thou must be brought before Cæsar: and, lo, God hath given thee all them that sail with thee.

²⁵ Wherefore, sirs, be of good cheer: for I believe God, that it shall be even as it was told me.

²⁶ Howbeit we must be cast upon a certain island.

²¹ And when they had been long without food, then Paul stood forth in the midst of them, and said, Sirs, ye should have hearkened unto me, and not have set sail from Crete, and have gotten this injury and loss.

²² And now I exhort you to be of good cheer: for there shall be no loss of life among you, but only of the ship.

²³ For there stood by me this night an angel of the God whose I am, whom also I serve,

²⁴ saying, Fear not, Paul; thou must stand before Caesar: and lo, God hath granted thee all them that sail with thee.

²⁵ Wherefore, sirs, be of good cheer: for I believe God, that it shall be even so as it hath been spoken unto me.

²⁶ Howbeit we must be cast upon a certain island.

²¹ None of us on the ship had eaten for many days. Then one day, Paul stood up in front of us and said, “ Friends, you should have listened to me when I said that we (inc) should not sail from Crete. Then we would have been safe, and the ship and its cargo would be in good condition LIT.

²² But now, I urge you, do not be afraid, because none of us will die. The storm will destroy the ship but not us.

²³ I know this, because last night God, the one to whom I belong and whom I serve, sent an angel who came and stood by me.

²⁴ The angel said to me, ‘Paul, do not be afraid! You (sg) must go to Rome and stand before the Emperor there so that he can judge you. I want you to know that God has made it clear to me that all those who are traveling by ship with you will also survive.’

²⁵ So cheer up, my friends, because I believe that God will make this happen, exactly as the angel told me.

²⁶ However, the ship will crash on some island, and we (inc) will go ashore there.”

²¹ When they had been long without food, Paul stood up in the middle of them and said, “Sirs, you should have listened to me, and not have set sail from Crete and have gotten this injury and loss.

²² Now I exhort you to cheer up, for there will be no loss of life among you, but only of the ship.

²³ For there stood by me this night an angel, belonging to the God whose I am and whom I serve,

²⁴ saying, ‘Don’t be afraid, Paul. You must stand before Caesar. Behold, God has granted you all those who sail with you.’

²⁵ Therefore, sirs, cheer up! For I believe God, that it will be just as it has been spoken to me.

²⁶ But we must run aground on a certain island.”

²¹ When they had been long without food, Paul stood up in the middle of them and said, “Sirs, you should have listened to me, and not have set sail from Crete and have gotten this injury and loss.

²² Now I exhort you to cheer up, for there will be no loss of life among you, but only of the ship.

²³ For there stood by me this night an angel, belonging to the God whose I am and whom I serve,

²⁴ saying, ‘Don’t be afraid, Paul. You must stand before Caesar. Behold, God has granted you all those who sail with you.’

²⁵ Therefore, sirs, cheer up! For I believe God, that it will be just as it has been spoken to me.

²⁶ But we must run aground on a certain island.”

²¹ When they had been long without food, Paul stood up in the middle of them and said, “Sirs, you should have listened to me, and not have set sail from Crete and have gotten this injury and loss.

²² Now I exhort you to cheer up, for there will be no loss of life amongst you, but only of the ship.

²³ For there stood by me this night an angel, belonging to the God whose I am and whom I serve,

²⁴ saying, ‘Don’t be afraid, Paul. You must stand before Caesar. Behold, God has granted you all those who sail with you.’

²⁵ Therefore, sirs, cheer up! For I believe God, that it will be just as it has been spoken to me.

²⁶ But we must run aground on a certain island.”

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.

²¹ And when they had been a long while without taking food, Paul then standing up in the midst of them said, Ye ought, O men, to have hearkened to me, and not have made sail from Crete and have gained this disaster and loss.

²² And now I exhort you to be of good courage, for there shall be no loss at all of life of any of you, only of the ship.

²³ For an angel of the God, whose I am and whom I serve, stood by me this night,

²⁴ saying, Fear not, Paul; thou must stand before Caesar; and behold, God has granted to thee all those that sail with thee.

²⁵ Wherefore be of good courage, men, for I believe God that thus it shall be, as it has been said to me.

²⁶ But we must be cast ashore on a certain island.

²¹ And after they had fasted a long time, Paul standing forth in the midst of them, said: You should indeed, O ye men, have hearkened unto me, and not have loosed from Crete, and have gained this harm and loss.

²² And now I exhort you to be of good cheer. For there shall be no loss of any man’s life among you, but only of the ship.

²³ For an angel of God, whose I am, and whom I serve, stood by me this night,

²⁴ Saying: Fear not, Paul, thou must be brought before Caesar; and behold, God hath given thee all them that sail with thee.

²⁵ Wherefore, sirs, be of good cheer; for I believe God that it shall so be, as it hath been told me.

²⁶ And we must come unto a certain island.

²¹ Now when they had abstained from food for a long time, then stood Paul in the midst of them and said, “Men, you should have followed my advice and not put to sea from Crete, and to spare yourselves this hardship and loss.

²² And now I urge you to keep up your courage, for there will be loss of not one life among you, only of the ship.

²³ For there stood by me this night an angel of the God to whom I belong, whom also I serve,

²⁴ saying, ‘Do not be afraid, Paul; for it is necessary for you to stand before Caesar; and behold, God has granted you all those sailing with you.’

²⁵ Therefore keep up your courage, men; for I believe God that it will be in the very manner it has been spoken to me.

²⁶ However, it is necessary for us to run aground on a certain island.”

²¹ Now after long abstinence from food, Paul stood up in the midst of them and said: “Well men, it would have been better to take my advice and not sail from Crete, only to ‘gain’ this damage and loss.

²² But now I urge you to take heart, because there will be no loss of life among you, only of the ship.

²³ This night an angel of the God whose I am and whom I serve stood by me

²⁴ and said: ‘Do not be afraid, Paul; you must stand before Caesar. Furthermore, God has granted you all those who sail with you.’

²⁵ So take courage, men, because I believe in God that it will be just as it was told me.

²⁶ Also, we must run aground on a certain island.”

²¹ Nobody had eaten anything for a long time. Then Paul stood before them and told them, “Men, you should have listened to me and not sailed from Crete. Then you could have avoided all this hardship and loss.

²² But now I advise you keep up your courage, because nobody is going to be lost, just the ship.

²³ Last night an angel of my God and whom I serve, stood beside me.

²⁴ ‘Don't be afraid, Paul,’ he told me. ‘You have to stand trial before Caesar. See, God has graciously given to you everyone who is sailing with you.’

²⁵ So men, have courage! I trust God, and I'm convinced things will happen just as I was told.

²⁶ However, we will be wrecked on some island.”

²¹ But after long abstinece, Paul stood forth in the mids of them, and said, Syrs, ye should haue hearkened to me, and not haue loosed from Candie: so should ye haue gained this hurt and losse.

²² But now I exhort you to be of good courage: for there shalbe no losse of any mans life among you, saue of the ship onely.

²³ For there stood by me this night the Angel of God, whose I am, and whome I serue,

²⁴ Saying, Feare not, Paul: for thou must be brought before Cesar: and lo, God hath giuen vnto thee freely all that sayle with thee.

²⁵ Wherefore, sirs, be of good courage: for I beleeue God, that it shall be so as it hath bene tolde me.

²⁶ Howbeit, we must be cast into a certaine Iland.

²¹ But after long abstinence Paul stood forth in the midst of them, and said, Sirs, ye should have hearkened unto me, and not have loosed from Crete, and to have gained this harm and loss.

²² And now I exhort you to be of good cheer: for there shall be no loss of any man’s life among you, but of the ship.

²³ For there stood by me this night the angel of God, whose I am, and whom I serve,

²⁴ saying, Fear not, Paul; thou must be brought before Cesar: and lo, God hath given thee all them that sail with thee.

²⁵ Wherefore, sirs, be of good cheer: for I believe God, that it shall be even as it was told me.

²⁶ Howbeit we must be cast upon a certain island.

²¹ And after there had been much abstinence from food, Paul stood up in the midst of them and said, Sirs, ye should have hearkened to me, and not have put to sea from Crete, nod thus brought upon yourselves this injury and loss.

²² And now I exhort you to be of good cheer; for there will be no loss of life among you, but only of the ship.

²³ For there stood by me this night an angel of God, whose I am, and whom I serve,

²⁴ saying, Fear not, Paul! Thou must stand before Caesar; and lo, God hath given thee all those that sail with thee.

²⁵ Wherefore, sirs, be of good cheer; for I believe God, that it will be just as it hath been told me.

²⁶ But we must be cast upon some island.

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.

²² Yet, even as things are, I beg you not to lose courage, for there will not be a single life lost amongst you — only the ship.

²³ For last night an angel of the God to whom I belong, and whom I serve, stood by me, and said —

²⁴ ‘Have no fear, Paul; you must appear before the Emperor, and God himself has given you the lives of all your fellow voyagers.’

²⁵ Therefore, courage, my friends! For I believe God, that everything will happen exactly as I have been told.

²⁶ We will, however, have to be driven on some island.”

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.

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.

²⁵ Therefore, courage, my friends! For I believe God, that everything will happen exactly as I have been told.

²⁶ We will, however, have to be driven on some island.”

²¹ None of us on the ship wanted to eat any food. We didn’t eat anything for a long time. Then one day, Paul stood up in front of us and said, “Listen, men, you didn’t listen to me in Crete but you sailed out of that little harbour. So now you are in trouble, and you lost all the things this ship was carrying.

²² But listen. Don’t be frightened. I’m telling you that none of us will die. But the wind and waves will wreck this ship.

²³ You see, I work for God, and last night he sent one of his angel messengers to me. He came and stood beside me,

²⁴ and he said, ‘Paul, don’t be frightened. You have to go to Rome and stand in front of the big boss called Caesar. And God will be good to all the others, too, that are with you on this ship. None of them will die.’

²⁵ Listen friends, I believe that God will help us, just like that angel told me.

²⁶ But the ship will crash on to an island, and we will all go ashore there.”

²¹ Then after longe abstinence Paul stode forth in the myddes of them and sayde: Syrs ye shulde have harkened to me and not have lowsed from Candy nether to have brought vnto vs this harme and losse.

²² And nowe I exhorte you to be of good chere. For ther shalbe no losse of eny mans lyfe amonge you save of the ship only.

²³ For ther stode by me this nyght the angell of God whose I am and whom I serve

²⁴ sayinge: feare not Paul for thou must be brought before Cesar. And lo God hath geven vnto the all that sayle with the.

²⁵ Wherfore Syrs be of good chere: for I beleve God that so it shalbe even as it was tolde me.

²⁶ How be it we must be cast into a certayne ylonde.

²¹ When they had gone long without food, then Paul stood up among the sailors and said, “Men, you should have listened to me, and not have set sail from Crete, so as to get this injury and loss.

²² Now I urge you to take courage, for there will be no loss of life among you, but only the loss of the ship.

²³ For last night an angel of the God to whom I belong, whom also I worship—his angel stood beside me

²⁴ and said, 'Do not be afraid, Paul. You must stand before Caesar, and see, God in his kindness has given to you all those who are sailing with you.'

²⁵ Therefore be cheerful, men! For I trust God that it will happen just as it was told to me.

²⁶ But we must run aground upon some island.”

²¹ When they had been long without food, Paul stood up in the middle of them and said, “Sirs, you should have listened to me, and not have set sail from Crete and have gotten this injury and loss.

²² Now I exhort you to cheer up, for there will be no loss of life among you, but only of the ship.

²⁶ But we must run aground on a certain island.”

²¹ And when much fasting had been, then Paul stood in the middle of them, and said, A! or O! men, it behooved, when ye heard me, not to have taken away the ship from Crete, and get this wrong and casting out.

²² And now I counsel you to be of good comfort or of good heart, for loss of no person of you shall be, except of the ship.

²³ For an angel of God, whose I am, and to whom I serve, stood nigh to me in this night,

²⁴ and said, Paul, dread thou not; it behooveth thee to stand before the emperor or Caesar. And lo! God hath given to thee all that be in the ship with thee.

²⁵ For which thing, ye men, be of good comfort or of good heart; for I believe to my God, that so it shall be, as it is said to me.

²⁶ And it behooveth us to come into some isle.

²¹ And when much fasting had been, then Paul stood in the middle of them, and said, A! men or O! men, it behooved, when ye heard me, not to have taken away the ship from Crete, and get this wrong and (this) casting out.

²² And now I counsel you to be of good comfort or of good heart, for loss of no person of you shall be or soothly there shall be loss of no soul of you, (no), except of the ship.

²³ For an angel of God, whose I am, and to whom I serve, stood nigh to me in this night,

²⁴ and said, Paul, dread thou not (or fear not); it behooveth thee to stand before the emperor or it behooveth thee to stand nigh to Caesar. And lo! God hath given to thee all that be in the ship with thee.

²⁵ For which thing, ye men, be of good comfort or be of good heart; for I believe to my God (or for I believe my God), that so it shall be, as it is said to me.

²⁶ And it behooveth us to come into some isle.

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;

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;

²³ for there stood by me this night a messenger of God — whose I am, and whom I serve —

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;

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

²⁶ and on a certain island it behoveth us to be cast.'
