Acts 27:1-8 ▼

1 And when our sailing to Italy was determined, they were delivering up both Paul and certain others, prisoners, to a centurion, by name Julius, of the band of Sebastus,

2 and having embarked in a ship of Adramyttium, we, being about to sail by the coasts of Asia, did set sail, there being with us Aristarchus, a Macedonian of Thessalonica,

3 on the next day also we touched at Sidon, and Julius, courteously treating Paul, did permit him, having gone on unto friends, to receive their care.

4 And thence, having set sail, we sailed under Cyprus, because of the winds being contrary,

5 and having sailed over the sea over-against Cilicia and Pamphylia, we came to Myria of Lycia,

6 and there the centurion having found a ship of Alexandria, sailing to Italy, did put us into it,

7 and having sailed slowly many days, and with difficulty coming over-against Cnidus, the wind not suffering us, we sailed under Crete, over-against Salmone,

8 and hardly passing it, we came to a certain place called 'Fair Havens,' nigh to which was the city of Lasaea.
