27 They reeled and staggered like drunkards;

they were at their wits’ end.

27 They reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man,

And are at their wits’ end.

27 They reeled and staggered like drunkards

and were at their wits’ end.

27 They reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man,

And are at their wits’ end.

27 They stumbled and fell like people who were drunk.

They did not know what to do.

27 They reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man,

And are at their wits’ end.

27 They reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man, and they are at their wits’ end:

27 They reeled and staggered like drunks, 

and all their skills as sailors became useless. 

27 they reeled and staggered like drunken men,

and all their skill was useless.

27 they reeled and staggered like drunkards,

and were at their wits’ end.

27 They reeled and staggered like a drunkard,

and they were at their wits’ end.

27 They were unsteady like those who get drunk.

They didn’t know what to do.

27 They reeled and staggered like a drunken man,

And were at their wits’ end.
