Acts 27:9-13
9By nowG1161 muchG2425 timeG5550 had passedG1230, andG2532 theG3588 voyageG4144 had already becomeG2235G1510 dangerousG2000 becauseG1223 it was afterG3928 theG3588 FastG3521.1 So PaulG3972 advisedG3867 them, 10“MenG435, I can seeG2334 thatG3754 our voyageG4144 willG3195 beG1510 filled withG3326 disasterG5196 andG2532 greatG4183 lossG2209, notG3756 onlyG3440 toG3588 shipG4143 andG2532 cargoG5413, butG235 to ourG1473 own livesG5590 as wellG2532.”
11ButG1161 contrary toG3123G2228 Paul’sG3972 adviceG3004, theG3588 centurionG1543 was persuadedG3982 by theG3588 pilotG2942 andG2532 by theG3588 owner of the shipG3490. 12SinceG1161 theG3588 harborG3040 wasG5225 unsuitableG428 toG4314 winter inG3915, theG3588 majorityG4119 decidedG5087G1012 to sailG321 onG1564, hoping thatG1487 somehowG4459 they couldG1410 reachG2658G1519 PhoenixG5405 to winterG3914 there. Phoenix was a harborG3040 in CreteG2914 facingG991 both southwestG3047 andG2532 northwestG5566.
13When a gentle south windG3558 began to blowG5285, they thoughtG1380 they hadG2902 their opportunityG4286. So they weighedG142 anchor and sailed alongG3881, hugging the coastG788 of CreteG2914.
