Acts 27:9-13

9By now much time had passed, and the voyage was already dangerous. Since the Day of Atonement was already over, Paul gave his advice

10and told them, “Men, I can see that this voyage is headed toward disaster and heavy loss, not only of the cargo and the ship but also of our lives.”

11But the centurion paid attention to the captain and the owner of the ship rather than to what Paul said.

12Since the harbor was unsuitable to winter in, the majority decided to set sail from there, hoping somehow to reach Phoenix, a harbor on Crete facing the southwest and northwest, and to winter there.

13When a gentle south wind sprang up, they thought they had achieved their purpose. They weighed anchor and sailed along the shore of Crete.
