וַיַּחְתְּר֣וּ הָאֲנָשִׁ֗ים לְהָשִׁ֛יב אֶל־הַיַּבָּשָׁ֖ה וְלֹ֣א יָכֹ֑לוּ כִּ֣י הַיָּ֔ם הוֹלֵ֥ךְ וְסֹעֵ֖ר עֲלֵיהֶֽם׃
vayaḥtrv haʾanashiym lhashiyb ʾel-hayabashah vloʾ yakolv kiy hayam hvolek vsoʿer ʿaleyhem
King James Version (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. {rowed: Heb. digged} {wrought...: or, grew more and more tempestuous: Heb. went}

Modern English

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.
