Acts 27:7-12

« Acts 26Acts 27Acts 28 »

7 And when we had sailed slowly for a good many days, and with difficulty had arrived off Cnidus, ^asince the wind did not permit us to go farther, we sailed under the shelter of ^bCrete, off Salmone; 8 and with difficulty, we ^asailed past it and came to a place called Fair Havens, near which was the city of Lasea.
9 And when considerable time had passed and the voyage was now dangerous, since even ^athe ¹Fast was already over, Paul began to advise them, 10 and said to them, “Men, I perceive that the voyage will certainly be with ^adamage and great loss, not only of the cargo and the ship, but also of our lives.” 11 But the centurion was being more persuaded by the ^apilot and the ¹captain of the ship than by what was being said by Paul. 12 And because the harbor was not suitable for wintering, the majority reached a decision to set sail from there, if somehow they could arrive at Phoenix, a harbor of ^aCrete facing southwest and northwest, to spend the winter there.
