Behold, the ships also, though they are so great and are driven by rough winds, are yet turned about by a very small rudder, whither the impulse of the steersman willeth.

看哪，船只虽然甚大，又被大风催逼，只用小小的舵，就随着掌舵的意思转动。

再看船只，虽然甚大，又被强风猛吹，只用小小的舵就随着掌舵的意思转动。

試觀諸舟如彼其大、且為狂風所盪、運以小舵、則隨舵師所欲、

雖有巨舟、為狂風動盪、而小舵得以運轉、隨舟子指揮、

舟雖大、且為狂風飄蕩、而小舵得以運轉、隨舵師所欲、

舟身雖大、且為暴風所驅、而舵師宴然把一小舵、亦能駕駛自如。

Or take ships as an example. Although they are so large and are driven by strong winds, they are steered by a very small rudder wherever the pilot wants to go.

And how about ships? They are very big. They are driven along by strong winds. But they are steered by a very small rudder. It makes them go where the captain wants to go.

Look at the ships also: though they are so large and are driven by strong winds, they are guided by a very small rudder wherever the will of the pilot directs.

And a small rudder makes a huge ship turn wherever the pilot chooses to go, even though the winds are strong.

And consider ships: Though very large and driven by fierce winds, they are guided by a very small rudder wherever the will of the pilot directs.

Look at the ships too: though they are so large and are driven by strong winds, they are nevertheless directed by a very small rudder wherever the inclination of the pilot determines.

Look also at ships: although they are so large and are driven by fierce winds, they are turned by a very small rudder wherever the pilot desires.

And consider ships: Though very large and driven by fierce winds, they are guided by a very small rudder wherever the will of the pilot directs.

Behold also the ships, which though[ they be] so great, and[ are] driven of fierce winds, yet are they turned about with a very small helm, whithersoever the governor listeth.

Look at ships too: Though they are so large and driven by harsh winds, they are steered by a tiny rudder wherever the pilot’s inclination directs.

Behold, the ships also, though they are so big and are driven by fierce winds, are yet guided by a very small rudder, wherever the pilot desires.

For he commandeth, and raiseth the stormy wind, Which lifteth up the waves thereof.They mount up to the heavens, they go down again to the depths: Their soul melteth away because of trouble.They reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man, And are at their wits’ end.

But Jehovah sent out a great wind upon the sea, and there was a mighty tempest on the sea, so that the ship was like to be broken.

But after no long time there beat down from it a tempestuous wind, which is called Euraquilo:and when the ship was caught, and could not face the wind, we gave way to it, and were driven.And running under the lee of a small island called Cauda, we were able, with difficulty, to secure the boat:and when they had hoisted it up, they used helps, under- girding the ship; and, fearing lest they should be cast upon the Syrtis, they lowered the gear, and so were driven.And as we labored exceedingly with the storm, the next day they began to throw the freight overboard;and the third day they cast out with their own hands the tackling of the ship.And when neither sun nor stars shone upon us for many days, and no small tempest lay on us, all hope that we should be saved was now taken away.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.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.For there stood by me this night an angel of the God whose I am, whom also I serve,saying, Fear not, Paul; thou must stand before Cæsar: and lo, God hath granted thee all them that sail with thee.Wherefore, sirs, be of good cheer: for I believe God, that it shall be even so as it hath been spoken unto me.But we must be cast upon a certain island.But when the fourteenth night was come, as we were driven to and fro in the sea of Adria, about midnight the sailors surmised that they were drawing near to some country:and they sounded, and found twenty fathoms; and after a little space, they sounded again, and found fifteen fathoms.And fearing lest haply we should be cast ashore on rocky ground, they let go four anchors from the stern, and wished for the day.And as the sailors were seeking to flee out of the ship, and had lowered the boat into the sea, under color as though they would lay out anchors from the foreship,Paul said to the centurion and to the soldiers, Except these abide in the ship, ye cannot be saved.Then the soldiers cut away the ropes of the boat, and let her fall off.And while the day was coming on, Paul besought them all to take some food, saying, This day is the fourteenth day that ye wait and continue fasting, having taken nothing.Wherefore I beseech you to take some food: for this is for your safety: for there shall not a hair perish from the head of any of you.And when he had said this, and had taken bread, he gave thanks to God in the presence of all; and he brake it, and began to eat.Then were they all of good cheer, and themselves also took food.And we were in all in the ship two hundred threescore and sixteen souls.And when they had eaten enough, they lightened the ship, throwing out the wheat into the sea.

And behold, there arose a great tempest in the sea, insomuch that the boat was covered with the waves: but he was asleep.
