Acts 27:1-10 ▼

1 But when it had been determined that we should sail to Italy, they delivered up Paul and certain other prisoners to a centurion, by name Julius, of Augustus' company.

2 And going on board a ship of Adramyttium about to navigate by the places along Asia, we set sail, Aristarchus, a Macedonian of Thessalonica, being with us.

3 And the next day we arrived at Sidon. And Julius treated Paul kindly and suffered him to go to his friends and refresh himself.

4 And setting sail thence we sailed under the lee of Cyprus, because the winds were contrary.

5 And having sailed over the waters of Cilicia and Pamphylia we came to Myra in Lycia:

6 and there the centurion having found a ship of Alexandria sailing to Italy, he made us go on board her.

7 And sailing slowly for many days, and having with difficulty got abreast of Cnidus, the wind not suffering us, we sailed under the lee of Crete abreast of Salmone;

8 and coasting it with difficulty we came to a certain place called Fair Havens, near to which was [the] city of Lasaea.

9 And much time having now been spent, and navigation being already dangerous, because the fast also was already past, Paul counselled them,

10 saying, Men, I perceive that the navigation will be with disaster and much loss, not only of the cargo and the ship, but also of our lives.
