And{G1161} when{G5613} it was determined{G2919}{(G5681)} that we{G2248} should sail{G636}{(G5721)} into{G1519} Italy{G2482}, they delivered{G3860}{(G5707)}{G5037} Paul{G3972} and{G2532} certain{G5100} other{G2087} prisoners{G1202} unto one named{G3686} Julius{G2457}, a centurion{G1543} of Augustus{G4575}' band{G4686}.

And{G1161} entering{G1910}{(G5631)} into a ship{G4143} of Adramyttium{G98}, we launched{G321}{(G5681)}, meaning{G3195}{(G5723)} to sail{G4126}{(G5721)} by{G2596} the coasts{G5117} of Asia{G773}; one Aristarchus{G708}, a Macedonian{G3110} of Thessalonica{G2331}, being{G5607}{(G5752)} with{G4862} us{G2254}.

And{G5037} the next{G2087} day we touched{G2609}{(G5648)} at{G1519} Sidon{G4605}. And{G5037} Julius{G2457} courteously{G5364} entreated{G5530}{(G5666)} Paul{G3972}, and gave him liberty{G2010}{(G5656)} to go{G4198}{(G5679)} unto{G4314} his friends{G5384} to refresh himself{G5177}{(G5629)}{G1958}.

And{G2547} when we had launched{G321}{(G5685)} from thence{G2547}, we sailed under{G5284}{(G5656)} Cyprus{G2954}, because{G1223} the winds{G417} were{G1511}{(G5750)} contrary{G1727}.

And{G5037} when we had sailed over{G1277}{(G5660)} the sea{G3989} of{G2596} Cilicia{G2791} and{G2532} Pamphylia{G3828}, we came{G2718}{(G5627)} to{G1519} Myra{G3460}, a city of Lycia{G3073}.

And there{G2546} the centurion{G1543} found{G2147}{(G5631)} a ship{G4143} of Alexandria{G222} sailing{G4126}{(G5723)} into{G1519} Italy{G2482}; and he put{G1688}{(G5656)} us{G2248} therein{G1519}{G846}.

And{G1161} when we had sailed slowly{G1020}{(G5723)}{G1722} many{G2425} days{G2250}, and{G2532} scarce{G3433} were come{G1096}{(G5637)} over against{G2596} Cnidus{G2834}, the wind{G417} not{G3361} suffering{G4330}{(G5723)} us{G2248}, we sailed under{G5284}{(G5656)} Crete{G2914}, over against{G2596} Salmone{G4534};

And{G5037}, hardly{G3433} passing{G3881}{(G5740)} it{G846}, came{G2064}{(G5627)} unto{G1519} a{G5100} place{G5117} which is called{G2564}{(G5746)} The fair{G2570} havens{G2568}{G3040}; nigh{G1451} whereunto{G3739} was{G2258}{(G5713)} the city{G4172} of Lasea{G2996}.

Now{G1161} when much{G2425} time{G5550} was spent{G1230}{(G5637)}, and{G2532} when sailing{G4144} was{G5607}{(G5752)} now{G2235} dangerous{G2000}, because{G1223} the fast{G3521} was{G3928} now{G2532} already{G2235} past{G3928}{(G5755)}, Paul{G3972} admonished{G3867}{(G5707)} them,

And said{G3004}{(G5723)} unto them{G846}, Sirs{G435}, I perceive{G2334}{(G5719)} that{G3754} this voyage{G4144} will be{G3195}{(G5721)}{G1510}{(G5705)} with{G3326} hurt{G5196} and{G2532} much{G4183} damage{G2209}, not{G3756} only{G3440} of the lading{G5414} and{G2532} ship{G4143}, but{G235} also{G2532} of our{G2257} lives{G5590}.

Nevertheless{G1161} the centurion{G1543} believed{G3982}{(G5712)} the master{G2942} and{G2532} the owner of the ship{G3490}, more{G3123} than{G2228} those things which were spoken{G3004}{(G5746)} by{G5259} Paul{G3972}.

And{G1161} because{G5225} the haven{G3040} was{G5225}{(G5723)} not commodious{G428} to{G4314} winter in{G3915}, the more part{G4119} advised{G1012}{G5087}{(G5639)} to depart{G321}{(G5683)} thence also{G2547}, if{G1513} by any means{G4458} they might{G1410}{(G5739)} attain{G2658}{(G5660)} to{G1519} Phenice{G5405}, and there to winter{G3914}{(G5658)}; which is an haven{G3040} of Crete{G2914}, and lieth{G991}{(G5723)} toward{G2596} the south west{G3047} and{G2532}{G2596} north west{G5566}.

And{G1161} when the south wind{G3558} blew softly{G5285}{(G5660)}, supposing{G1380}{(G5660)} that they had obtained{G2902}{(G5760)} their purpose{G4286}, loosing{G142}{(G5660)} thence, they sailed{G3881}{(G5711)} close by{G788} Crete{G2914}.

But{G1161} not{G3756} long{G4183} after{G3326} there arose{G906}{(G5627)} against{G2596} it{G846} a tempestuous{G5189} wind{G417}, called{G2564}{(G5746)} Euroclydon{G2148}.

And{G1161} when the ship{G4143} was caught{G4884}{(G5685)}, and{G2532} could{G1410}{(G5740)} not{G3361} bear up into{G503}{(G5721)} the wind{G417}, we let her drive{G1929}{(G5631)}{G5342}{(G5712)}.

And{G1161} running under{G5295}{(G5631)} a certain{G5100} island{G3519} which is called{G2564}{(G5746)} Clauda{G2802}, we had{G2480} much{G3433} work{G2480}{(G5656)} to come by{G4031}{G1096}{(G5635)} the boat{G4627}:

Which{G3739} when they had taken up{G142}{(G5660)}, they used{G5530}{(G5711)} helps{G996}, undergirding{G5269}{(G5723)} the ship{G4143}; and{G5037}, fearing{G5399}{(G5740)} lest{G3361} they should fall{G1601}{(G5632)} into{G1519} the quicksands{G4950}, strake{G5465}{(G5660)} sail{G4632}, and so{G3779} were driven{G5342}{(G5712)}.

And{G1161} we{G2257} being exceedingly{G4971} tossed with a tempest{G5492}{(G5746)}, the next{G1836} day they lightened the ship{G1546}{G4160}{(G5710)};

And{G2532} the third{G5154} day we cast out{G4496}{(G5656)} with our own hands{G849} the tackling{G4631} of the ship{G4143}.

And{G1161} when neither{G3383} sun{G2246} nor{G3383} stars{G798} in{G1909} many{G4119} days{G2250} appeared{G2014}{(G5723)}, and{G5037} no{G3756} small{G3641} tempest{G5494} lay on{G1945}{(G5740)} us, all{G3956} hope{G1680} that we{G2248} should be saved{G4982}{(G5745)} was{G4014} then{G3063} taken away{G4014}{(G5712)}.

But{G1161} after{G5225}{(G5723)} long{G4183} abstinence{G776}{G5119} Paul{G3972} stood forth{G2476}{(G5685)} in{G1722} the midst{G3319} of them{G846}, and said{G2036}{(G5627)}, Sirs{G5599}{G435}, ye should{G1163}{(G5713)}{G3303} have hearkened{G3980}{(G5660)} unto me{G3427}, and not{G3361} have loosed{G321}{(G5745)} from{G575} Crete{G2914}, and{G5037} to have gained{G2770}{(G5658)} this{G5026} harm{G5196} and{G2532} loss{G2209}.

And{G2532} now{G3569} I exhort{G3867}{(G5719)} you{G5209} to be of good cheer{G2114}{(G5721)}: for{G1063} there shall be{G2071}{(G5704)} no{G3762} loss{G580} of any man's life{G5590} among{G1537} you{G5216}, but{G4133} of the ship{G4143}.

For{G1063} there stood by{G3936}{(G5627)} me{G3427} this{G5026} night{G3571} the angel{G32} of God{G2316}, whose{G3739} I am{G1510}{(G5748)}, and{G2532} whom{G3739} I serve{G3000}{(G5719)},

Saying{G3004}{(G5723)}, Fear{G5399}{(G5737)} not{G3361}, Paul{G3972}; thou{G4571} must{G1163}{(G5748)} be brought before{G3936}{(G5629)} Caesar{G2541}: and{G2532}, lo{G2400}{(G5628)}, God{G2316} hath given{G5483}{(G5766)} thee{G4671} all{G3956} them that sail{G4126}{(G5723)} with{G3326} thee{G4675}.

Wherefore{G1352}, sirs{G435}, be of good cheer{G2114}{(G5720)}: for{G1063} I believe{G4100}{(G5719)} God{G2316}, that{G3754} it{G3779} shall be{G2071}{(G5704)} even{G2596}{G3739} as{G5158} it was told{G2980}{(G5769)} me{G3427}.

Howbeit{G1161} we{G2248} must{G1163}{(G5748)} be cast{G1601}{(G5629)} upon{G1519} a certain{G5100} island{G3520}.

But{G1161} when{G5613} the fourteenth{G5065} night{G3571} was come{G1096}{(G5633)}, as we{G2257} were driven up and down{G1308}{(G5746)} in{G1722} Adria{G99}, about{G2596} midnight{G3319}{G3571} the shipmen{G3492} deemed{G5282}{(G5707)} that they{G846} drew near{G4317}{(G5721)} to some{G5100} country{G5561};

And{G2532} sounded{G1001}{(G5660)}, and found{G2147}{(G5627)} it twenty{G1501} fathoms{G3712}: and{G1161} when they had gone{G1339}{(G5660)} a little further{G1024}, they sounded{G1001}{(G5660)} again{G3825}, and{G2532} found{G2147}{(G5627)} it fifteen{G1178} fathoms{G3712}.

Then{G5037} fearing{G5399}{(G5740)} lest{G3381}{G4458} we should have fallen{G1601}{(G5632)}{(G5625)}{G1601}{(G5632)} upon{G1519} rocks{G5117}{G5138}, they cast{G4496}{(G5660)} four{G5064} anchors{G45} out of{G1537} the stern{G4403}, and wished{G2172}{(G5711)}{G1096}{(G5635)} for the day{G2250}.

And{G1161} as the shipmen{G3492} were about{G2212}{(G5723)} to flee{G5343}{(G5629)} out of{G1537} the ship{G4143}, when{G2532} they had let down{G5465}{(G5660)} the boat{G4627} into{G1519} the sea{G2281}, under colour{G4392} as though{G5613} they would{G3195}{(G5723)} have cast{G1614}{(G5721)} anchors{G45} out of{G1537} the foreship{G4408},

Paul{G3972} said{G2036}{(G5627)} to the centurion{G1543} and{G2532} to the soldiers{G4757}, Except{G3362} these{G3778} abide{G3306}{(G5661)} in{G1722} the ship{G4143}, ye{G5210} cannot{G3756}{G1410}{(G5736)} be saved{G4982}{(G5683)}.

Then{G5119} the soldiers{G4757} cut off{G609}{(G5656)} the ropes{G4979} of the boat{G4627}, and{G2532} let{G1439}{(G5656)} her{G846} fall off{G1601}{(G5629)}.

And{G1161} while{G891}{G3739} the day{G2250} was coming{G1096}{(G5738)} on{G3195}{(G5707)}, Paul{G3972} besought{G3870}{(G5707)} them all{G537} to take{G3335}{(G5629)} meat{G5160}, saying{G3004}{(G5723)}, This day{G4594} is the fourteenth{G5065} day{G2250} that ye have tarried{G4328}{(G5723)} and continued{G1300}{(G5719)} fasting{G777}, having taken{G4355}{(G5642)} nothing{G3367}.

Wherefore{G1352} I pray{G3870}{(G5719)} you{G5209} to take{G4355}{(G5629)} some meat{G5160}: for{G1063} this{G5124} is{G5225}{(G5719)} for{G4314} your{G5212} health{G4991}: for{G1063} there shall{G4098} not{G3762} an hair{G2359} fall{G4098}{(G5695)} from{G1537} the head{G2776} of any{G3762} of you{G5216}.

And{G1161} when he had thus{G5023} spoken{G2036}{(G5631)},{G2532} he took{G2983}{(G5631)} bread{G740}, and gave thanks{G2168}{(G5656)} to God{G2316} in presence{G1799} of them all{G3956}: and{G2532} when he had broken{G2806}{(G5660)} it, he began{G756}{(G5662)} to eat{G2068}{(G5721)}.

Then{G1161} were{G1096} they{G846}{G1096}{(G5637)} all{G3956} of good cheer{G2115}, and they{G4355} also{G2532} took{G4355}{(G5639)} some meat{G5160}.

And{G1161} we were{G2258}{(G5713)} in all{G3956} in{G1722} the ship{G4143} two hundred{G1250} threescore{G1440} and sixteen{G1803} souls{G5590}.

And{G1161} when they had eaten{G5160} enough{G2880}{(G5685)}, they lightened{G2893}{(G5707)} the ship{G4143}, and cast out{G1544}{(G5734)} the wheat{G4621} into{G1519} the sea{G2281}.

And{G1161} when{G3753} it was{G1096}{(G5633)} day{G2250}, they knew{G1921}{(G5707)} not{G3756} the land{G1093}: but{G1161} they discovered{G2657}{(G5707)} a certain{G5100} creek{G2859} with{G2192}{(G5723)} a shore{G123}, into{G1519} the which{G3739} they were minded{G1011}{(G5662)}, if{G1487} it were possible{G1410}{(G5739)}, to thrust in{G1856}{(G5658)} the ship{G4143}.

And{G2532} when they had taken up{G4014}{(G5631)} the anchors{G45}, they committed{G1439}{(G5707)} themselves unto{G1519} the sea{G2281}, and{G260} loosed{G447}{(G5631)} the rudder{G4079} bands{G2202}, and{G2532} hoised up{G1869}{(G5660)} the mainsail{G736} to the wind{G4154}{(G5723)}, and made{G2722}{(G5707)} toward{G1519} shore{G123}.

And{G1161} falling{G4045}{(G5631)} into{G1519} a place{G5117} where two seas met{G1337}, they ran{G2027} the ship{G3491} aground{G2027}{(G5656)}; and{G2532} the forepart{G4408}{G3303} stuck fast{G2043}{(G5660)}, and remained{G3306}{(G5656)} unmoveable{G761}, but{G1161} the hinder part{G4403} was broken{G3089}{(G5712)} with{G5259} the violence{G970} of the waves{G2949}.

And{G1161} the soldiers{G4757}' counsel{G1012} was{G1096}{(G5633)} to{G2443} kill{G615}{(G5725)} the prisoners{G1202}, lest{G3361} any of them{G5100} should swim out{G1579}{(G5660)}, and escape{G1309}{(G5630)}.

But{G1161} the centurion{G1543}, willing{G1014}{(G5740)} to save{G1295}{(G5658)} Paul{G3972}, kept{G2967}{(G5656)} them{G846} from their purpose{G1013}; and{G5037} commanded{G2753}{(G5656)} that they which could{G1410}{(G5740)} swim{G2860}{(G5721)} should cast{G641}{(G5660)} themselves first{G4413} into the sea, and get{G1826}{(G5750)} to{G1909} land{G1093}:

And{G2532} the rest{G3062}, some{G3739}{G3303} on{G1909} boards{G4548}, and{G1161} some{G3739} on{G1909} broken pieces of{G575} the ship{G4143}{G5100}. And{G2532} so{G3779} it came to pass{G1096}{(G5633)}, that they escaped{G1295} all{G3956} safe{G1295}{(G5683)} to{G1909} land{G1093}.
