20 When neither sun nor stars appeared for many days and the storm continued raging, we finally gave up all hope of being saved.

20 When neither sun nor stars appeared for many days, and no small tempest lay on us, all hope of our being saved was at last abandoned.

20 The terrible storm raged for many days, blotting out the sun and the stars, until at last all hope was gone.

20 Now when neither sun nor stars appeared for many days, and no small tempest beat on us, all hope that we would be saved was finally given up.

20 When we could not see the sun or the stars for many days, and the storm was very bad, we lost all hope of being saved.

20 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.

20 And neither sun nor stars appearing for many days, and no small storm lying on us, in the end all hope of our being saved was taken away.

20 For a number of days we couldn’t see the sun or the stars. The storm wouldn’t let up. It was so severe that we finally began to lose any hope of coming out of it alive. 

20 For many days neither sun nor stars appeared, and the severe storm kept raging. Finally all hope that we would be saved was disappearing.

20 When neither sun nor stars appeared for many days, and no small tempest raged, all hope of our being saved was at last abandoned.

20 But when neither sun nor stars appeared for many days, and with not a little bad weather confronting us, finally all hope was abandoned that we would be saved.

20 The sun and stars didn’t appear for many days. The storm was terrible. So we gave up all hope of being saved.

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 gradually abandoned.
