  • Acts 27:9-9 : 9 Now when much time had been spent, and when sailing was now dangerous, because the fast was already past, Paul admonished them, 10 And said to them, Sirs, I perceive that this voyage will result in disaster and much loss, not only of the cargo and ship, but also of our lives. 11 Nevertheless, the centurion believed the master and owner of the ship more than what was spoken by Paul. 12 And because the harbor was not suitable to winter in, the majority advised to sail from there also, if by any means they might reach Phoenix, to winter there; which is a harbor of Crete, facing southwest and northwest. 13 And when the south wind blew softly, they assumed they had obtained their purpose, setting sail, they sailed close by Crete. 14 But not long after, a tempestuous wind arose, called Euroclydon. 15 And when the ship was caught, and could not face the wind, we let her be driven. 16 And running under a certain island called Clauda, we had much work to secure the boat: 17 Which when they had taken up, they used aids to undergird the ship; and, fearing lest they should fall into the quicksands, they lowered the sail, and so were driven. 18 And being exceedingly tossed by a tempest, the next day they lightened the ship; 19 And on the third day we cast out, with our own hands, the ship's tackle. 20 And when neither sun nor stars appeared for many days, and no small tempest lay on us, all hope that we should be saved was then lost. 21 But after long abstinence, Paul stood forth in their midst, and said, Sirs, you should have listened to me, and not have sailed from Crete, and incurred this harm and loss. 22 And now I exhort you to take courage: for there shall be no loss of any man's life among you, but only of the ship. 23 For there stood by me this night the angel of God, whose I am, and whom I serve, 24 Saying, Do not fear, Paul; you must be brought before Caesar: and indeed, God has granted you all those who sail with you. 25 Therefore, sirs, be of good cheer: for I believe God, that it will be just as it was told to me. 26 However, we must be cast upon a certain island. 27 But when the fourteenth night had come, as we were driven up and down in Adria, about midnight the sailors sensed that they were nearing land; 28 And they sounded, and found it twenty fathoms: and when they had gone a little further, they sounded again, and found it fifteen fathoms.
