Now
when
our
sailing
to
Italy
was determined
,
they delivered
both
Paul
and
certain
other prisoners to a centurion
named
Julius,
of the cohort
of Augustus.
2
And
having boarded
a ship
of Adramyttium
being
about
to sail
to the
places
along
Asia,
we set sailAristarchus,
a Macedonian
of Thessalonica,
being
with us.
3
And
the next
day
we landed
at
Sidon.
And
Julius,
having treated
Paul
considerately,
allowed
him
,
having gone
to his
friends,
to receive
care.
4
And
having set sail from there,
we sailed under
Cyprus
because of
the
winds
being
contrary.
5
And
having sailed across
the sea
and
along
Cilicia
and
Pamphylia,
we came
to
Myra
of Lycia.
6
And there
the
centurion,
having found
a ship
of Alexandria
sailing
to
Italy,
placed
us into it.
7
Now
sailing slowly
for
many
days,
and
with difficulty
having arrived
off
Cnidus,
the
wind
not
permitting
us,
we sailed under
Crete,
off
Salmone.
8
And
coasting along
it
with difficulty,
we came
to a certain
place
called
Fair
Havens,
near
to which
was
the
city
of Lasea.
9
Now
much
time
having passed,
and
the
voyage
being
already
dangerous
because of
even the
Fast
already
being over,
Paul
was admonishing
them
,
10
saying
to them, Men,
I underst
and
that the
voyage
is about
to be
filled
with
disaster
and
much
loss,
not
only
of the cargo
and
of the
ship,
but also of our lives.
11
But the
centurion
was persuaded
by the
pilot
and the
ship owner,
rather
than
by the things
spoken
by
Paul.
12
And
the
harbor
being unsuitable to
winter in,
the
majority
reached
a decision
to set sail
from
the
re,
if
somehow
the
y might be able,
having arrived
at Phoenix
a
harbor
of Crete
looking
toward
the
southwest
and toward
the
northwest
to winter
the
re
.
13
Now
a south wind
having blown gently,
having thought
to have obtained
the purpose,
having weighed
anchor
,
they began coasting along
very near
Crete.
14
But
not
long
after,
there came
down
from it
a tempestuous
wind
called the Northeaster.
15
And the
ship
having been caught
and not
being able
to face
to the wind,
having given way,
we were driven along.
16
And
having run under
a certain
island
called
Cauda,
we were able
with difficulty
to gain
control
of the lifeboat,
17
which
having taken up,
the
y began using
supports,
undergirding
the
ship.
And
fearing
lest
the
y should fall
into
the
sandbars of Syrtis,
having lowered
the
gear,
thus
the
y were driven along.
18
And we
being storm-tossed
violently,
on the
next
day
they began to make a jettison of cargo,
19
and on the
third
day
they cast away
the
tackle
of the
ship
with the own hands.
20
And
neither
sun
no
r
stars
appearing
for
many
days,
and
no
sm
all
tempest
lying on
us
, from then on
all
hope
of our
being saved
was abandoned.
21
There being
also
much
time without food, at that time
having stood up
in their midst,
Paul
said, It behooved
you
indeed, O men,
having been obedient
to me, not
to have set sail
from
Crete
and
to have incurred
this
disaster
and
loss.
22
And yet
no
w
I exhort
you
to take heart,
for there will be
no
loss
of life
from among
you, only of the
ship.
23
For
this
night
an angel
of God,
whose
I
am
and
whom
I serve,
stood by
me,
24
saying, Fear not,
Paul.
It behooves
you
to stand before
Caesar.
And behold,
God
has granted
to you
all
those
sailing
with you.
25
Therefore
take heart, men, for
I believe
God
that
it will be
thus, according to the way
it has been said
to me.
26
But
it behooves us
to fall
upon
a certain
island.
27
And
when
the fourteenth
night
had come,
of us
be
in
g driven about
in
the
Adriatic,
toward
the
middle
of the
night
the
sailors
began sens
in
g
some
land
to be draw
in
g near
to them.
28
And
having taken soundings
,
they found
twenty
fathoms.
Then
having gone a little farther
and
having taken soundings
again,
they found
fifteen
fathoms.
29
And
fearing
lest
we might fall
somewhere
on
rocky
places, having cast
four
anchors
out of
the
stern,
they were praying for
day
to come.
30
And of the
sailors
seeking
to flee
out of
the
ship
and
having let down
the
lifeboat
into the
sea
under pretense
as
being about
to cast out
anchors
from
the
bow,
31
Paul
said to the
centurion
and to the
soldiers,
Unless
these
remain
in the
ship,
you
are not able
to be saved.
32
Then
the
soldiers
cut away
the
ropes of
the
lifeboat,
and
allowed
her
to fall away.
33
And
until
that
day
was about
to come,
Paul
kept urging
all
to partake
of food,
saying, To
day
is
the fourteenth
day
you continue
watching
without eating,
having taken
nothing.
34
Therefore
I exhort
you
to take
food, for
this
is for your
preservation;
for
not one
hair
of
your
head
will perish.
35
Now
having said
these things
and
having taken
bread,
he gave thanks
to God
before
all;
and having broken
it
, he began
to eat.
36
And
all,
having been
encouraged,
also
took
food
themselves.
37
And we were
altogether
two hundred
seventy-six
souls in the
ship.
38
Then
having been filled
with food,
the
y began to lighten
the
ship,
casting out
the
wheat into
the
sea.
39
And
when
it was
day,
the
y did not recognize
the
land,
but
the
y noticed
a certain
bay,
having
a shore
on which
the
y determined
to drive
the
ship
if
the
y should be able.
40
And
having cut away
the
anchors,
they left
them
in the
sea,
at the same time
having loosened
the
ropes
of the
rudders.
And
having hoisted
the
foresail
to the
blowing
wind
,
they began making
for the
shore.
41
But
having fallen
into
a place
between two seas, they ran the vessel aground. And indeed the bow, having stuck fast,
remained
immovable, and the
stern
was being broken up
by the
violence
of the waves.
42
Now
the
plan
of the
soldiers
was that
they should kill
the prisoners,
lest
anyone,
having swum away,
should escape.
43
But
the
centurion,
desiring
to save
Paul,
hindered
the
m
of
the
purpose;
and
he commanded
those
being able
to swim,
having cast
the
mselves
of
f
first,
to go out
on
the
land,
44
and the
rest,
some
indeed on
boards,
and
some
on
things
from the
ship.
And
thus
it came to pass that
all
were brought safely
to the
land.
