It Makes No More Sense in Pirate Talk

Arrrr! Today be international talk like a pirate day. So I decided I'd try t' find t' Akkadian word or phrase for pirate. T' best I could come up with be šarrâqu that means "thief." So I decided t' just post this and see if it be makin' any sense in pirate talk,

What be Zwin'li think'n about people? Arrrr, man be an amphibian among creatures, livin' sometimes earthly and sometimes divinely and while a landlubber sometimes losin' and sometimes winnin'. Avast, he only overcomes this duality and contradiction in Christ, in he alone he be findin' peace. Further, for Zwin'li, if God be absent in a scallywag's life, thar be only feedin' the fish and powerlessness.

And o' course, bein' a good pirate, I be stealin' it from another blog but it's up t' you t' find me source. I'm aye not tellin' but I be givin' a hint. I did hope it would make more sense when translated into good pirate talk.

Why not? While the Babylonians were likely not sailors of the quality of the Phoenicians or the Egyptians, for that matter, there is evidence that they navigated the Persian Gulf. If the government sailed, it's a fair bet that the anti-government sailed too.
