NASB: However, the men rowed [desperately] to return to land but they could not, for the sea was becoming [even] stormier against them.

(GOD'S WORD®) KJV: Nevertheless the men rowed hard to bring it to the land; but they could not: for the sea wrought, and was tempestuous against them. ASV: Nevertheless the men rowed hard to get them back to the land; but they could not: for the sea grew more and more tempestuous against them. BBE: And the men were working hard to get back to the land, but they were not able to do so: for the sea got rougher and rougher against them. DBY: But the men rowed hard to regain the land; but they could not; for the sea grew more and more tempestuous against them. JPS: Nevertheless the men rowed hard to bring it to the land; but they could not; for the sea grew more and more tempestuous against them. WBS: Nevertheless the men rowed hard to bring it to the land; but they could not: for the sea wrought, and was tempestuous against them. WEB: Nevertheless the men rowed hard to get them back to the land; but they could not, for the sea grew more and more stormy against them. YLT: And the men row to turn back unto the dry land, and are not able, for the sea is more and more tempestuous against them. | |
