Acts 27
And
when
it
was
determined
that
we
should
sail
into
Italy,
they
delivered
Paul
and
certain
other
prisoners
unto
one
named
Julius,
a
centurion
of
Augustus'
band.
2 And
entering
into
a
ship
of
Adramyttium,
we
launched,
meaning
to
sail
by
the
coasts
of
Asia;
one
a
Aristarchus,
a
Macedonian
of
Thessalonica,
being
with
us.
3 And
the
next
day
we
touched
at
Sidon.
And
Julius
courteously
entreated
Paul,
and
gave
him
liberty
to
go
unto
his
friends
to
refresh
himself.
4 And
when
we
had
launched
from
thence,
we
sailed
under
Cyprus,
because
the
winds
were
contrary.
5 And
when
we
had
sailed
over
the
sea
of
Cilicia
and
Pamphylia,
we
came
to
Myra,
a
city
of
Lycia.
6 And
there
the
centurion
found
a
ship
of
Alexandria
sailing
into
Italy;
and
he
put
us
therein.
7 And
when
we
had
sailed
slowly
many
days,
and
scarce
were
come
over
against
Cnidus,
the
wind
not
suffering
us,
we
sailed
under
Crete,
over
against
Salmone;
8 And,
hardly
passing
it,
came
unto
a
place
which
is
called
The
fair
havens;
nigh
whereunto
was
the
city
of
Lasea.
9 Now
when
much
time
was
spent,
and
when
sailing
was
now
dangerous,
because
the
a
fast
was
now
already
past,
Paul
admonished
them,
10 And
said
unto
them,
Sirs,
I
perceive
that
this
voyage
will
be
with
hurt
and
much
damage,
not
only
of
the
lading
and
ship,
but
also
of
our
lives.
11 Nevertheless
the
centurion
believed
the
master
and
the
a
owner
of
the
ship,
more
than
those
things
which
were
spoken
by
Paul.
12 And
because
the
haven
was
not
commodious
to
winter
in,
the
more
part
advised
to
depart
thence
also,
if
by
any
means
they
might
attain
to
Phenice,
and
there
to
winter;
which
is
an
haven
of
Crete,
and
lieth
toward
the
south
west
and
north
west.
13 And
when
the
south
wind
blew
softly,
supposing
that
they
had
obtained
their
purpose,
loosing
thence,
they
sailed
close
by
Crete.
14 But
not
long
after
there
arose
against
it
a
tempestuous
wind,
called
Euroclydon.
15 And
when
the
ship
was
caught,
and
could
not
bear
up
into
the
wind,
we
let
her
drive.
16 And
running
under
a
certain
island
which
is
called
Clauda,
we
had
much
work
to
come
by
the
boat:
17 Which
when
they
had
taken
up,
they
used
helps,
undergirding
the
ship;
and,
fearing
lest
they
should
fall
into
the
quicksands,
strake
sail,
and
so
were
driven.
18 And
we
being
exceedingly
tossed
with
a
tempest,
the
next
day
they
lightened
the
ship;
19 And
the
third
day
we
cast
out
with
our
own
hands
the
tackling
of
the
ship.
20 And
when
neither
sun
nor
stars
in
many
days
appeared,
and
no
small
tempest
lay
on
us,
all
hope
that
we
should
be
saved
was
then
taken
away.
21 But
after
long
abstinence
Paul
stood
forth
in
the
midst
of
them,
and
said,
Sirs,
ye
should
have
hearkened
unto
me,
and
not
have
loosed
from
Crete,
and
to
have
gained
this
harm
and
loss.
22 And
now
I
exhort
you
to
be
of
good
cheer:
for
there
shall
be
no
loss
of
any
man's
a
life
among
you,
but
of
the
ship.
23 For
there
stood
by
me
this
night
the
a
angel
of
God,
whose
I
am,
and
whom
I
serve,
24 Saying,
Fear
not,
Paul;
thou
must
be
brought
before
Caesar:
and,
lo,
God
hath
given
thee
all
them
that
sail
with
thee.
25 Wherefore,
sirs,
be
of
good
cheer:
for
I
believe
God,
that
it
shall
be
even
as
it
was
told
me.
26 Howbeit
we
must
be
cast
upon
a
certain
island.
27 But
when
the
fourteenth
night
was
come,
as
we
were
driven
up
and
down
in
a
Adria,
about
midnight
the
shipmen
deemed
that
they
drew
near
to
some
country;
28 And
sounded,
and
found
it
twenty
fathoms:
and
when
they
had
gone
a
little
further,
they
sounded
again,
and
found
it
fifteen
fathoms.
29 Then
fearing
lest
we
should
have
fallen
upon
rocks,
they
cast
four
anchors
out
of
the
stern,
and
wished
for
the
day.
30 And
as
the
shipmen
were
about
to
flee
out
of
the
ship,
when
they
had
let
down
the
boat
into
the
sea,
under
colour
as
though
they
would
have
cast
anchors
out
of
the
foreship,
31 Paul
said
to
the
centurion
and
to
the
soldiers,
Except
these
abide
in
the
ship,
ye
cannot
be
saved.
32 Then
the
soldiers
cut
off
the
ropes
of
the
boat,
and
let
her
fall
off.
33 And
while
the
day
was
coming
on,
Paul
besought
them
all
to
take
meat,
saying,
This
day
is
the
fourteenth
day
that
ye
have
tarried
and
continued
a
fasting,
having
taken
nothing.
34 Wherefore
I
pray
you
to
take
some
meat:
for
this
is
for
your
a
health:
for
there
shall
not
an
hair
fall
from
the
head
of
any
of
you.
35 And
when
he
had
thus
spoken,
he
took
bread,
and
gave
thanks
to
God
in
presence
of
them
all:
and
when
he
had
broken
it,
he
began
to
eat.
36 Then
were
they
all
of
good
cheer,
and
they
also
took
some
meat.
37 And
we
were
in
all
in
the
ship
two
hundred
threescore
and
sixteen
souls.
38 And
when
they
had
eaten
enough,
they
lightened
the
ship,
and
cast
out
the
wheat
into
the
sea.
39 And
when
it
was
day,
they
knew
not
the
land:
but
they
discovered
a
certain
a
creek
with
a
shore,
into
the
which
they
were
minded,
if
it
were
possible,
to
thrust
in
the
ship.
40 And
when
they
had
a
taken
up
the
anchors,
they
committed
themselves
unto
the
sea,
and
loosed
the
rudder
bands,
and
hoised
up
the
mainsail
to
the
wind,
and
made
toward
shore.
41 And
falling
into
a
place
where
two
seas
met,
they
ran
the
ship
aground;
and
the
forepart
stuck
fast,
and
remained
unmoveable,
but
the
hinder
part
was
broken
with
the
violence
of
the
waves.
42 And
the
soldiers'
counsel
was
to
kill
the
prisoners,
lest
any
of
them
should
swim
out,
and
escape.
43 But
the
centurion,
willing
to
save
Paul,
kept
them
from
their
purpose;
and
commanded
that
they
which
could
swim
should
cast
themselves
first
into
the
sea,
and
get
to
land:
44 And
the
rest,
some
on
boards,
and
some
on
broken
pieces
of
the
ship.
And
so
it
came
to
pass,
that
they
escaped
all
a
safe
to
land.
