Acts 27:7-17
7And sailing slowly for manyG2425 daysG2250, and having with difficultyG3433 got abreast of Cnidus, the windG417 not suffering us, we sailedG5284 under the lee of CreteG2914 abreast of Salmone;
8and coasting it with difficultyG3433 we cameG2064 to a certainG5100 placeG5117 calledG2564 Fair Havens, near to which wasG1510 [the] cityG4172 of Lasaea.
9And much timeG5550 having nowG1161 beenG1510 spent, and navigation beingG1510 alreadyG2235 dangerous, because the fast alsoG2532 wasG1510 alreadyG2235 past, PaulG3972 counselled them,
10sayingG3004, MenG435, I perceive that the navigation will beG1510 with disasterG5196 and muchG4183 lossG2209, not onlyG3440 of the cargo and the shipG4143, but alsoG2532 of our livesG5590.
11But the centurionG1543 believed ratherG3123 the helmsman and the shipowner than what was saidG3004 by PaulG3972.
12And the harbour being ill adapted to winterG3914 in, the most counselled to setG321 sailG321 thence, if perhaps they might reach Phoenice to winterG3914 in, a port of CreteG2914 lookingG991 north-east and south-east.
13And [the] southG3558 windG3558 blowing gently, supposing that they had gained their object, having weighed anchor they sailed close in shore along CreteG2914.
14But not long after there came downG2596 it a hurricane calledG2564 Euroclydon.
15And the shipG4143 being caught and driven, and not ableG1410 to bringG5342 her head to the windG417, letting her go we were driven [before it].
16But running under the lee of a certainG5100 island calledG2564 Clauda, we were with difficultyG3433 ableG2480 to make ourselves masters of the boat;
17which having hoisted up, they usedG5530 helps, frapping the shipG4143; and fearingG5399 lestG3361 they should run into Syrtis and run aground, and having lowered the gear they were soG3779 driven.
