Acts 27:14-17

14But soon a tempestuous wind, called the northeaster, struck down from the land.

15And when the ship was caught and could not face the wind, we gave way to it and were driven along.

16Running under the lee of a small island called Cauda, we managed with difficulty to secure the ship's boat.

17After hoisting it up, they used supports to undergird the ship. Then, fearing that they would run aground on the Syrtis, they lowered the gear, and thus they were driven along.
