Acts 27:14-17

14But beforeG3326 G3756 veryG4183 longG4183 there 1rushedG906 downG2596 from 2the land a violentG5189 windG417, calledG2564 3EuraquiloG2146;

15and when the shipG4143 was caughtG4884 in it and couldG1410 not faceG503 the windG417, we gaveG1929 wayG1929 to it and let ourselves be drivenG5342 along.

16RunningG5295 underG5295 the shelterG5295 of a smallG3519 islandG3519 calledG2564 ClaudaG2802, we were scarcelyG3433 ableG2480 to getG1096 the ship’s 4boatG4627 underG4031 controlG4031.

17After they had hoistedG142 it up, they usedG5530 5supportingG996 cablesG996 in undergirdingG5269 the shipG4143; and fearingG5399 that they might 6runG1601 agroundG1601 on the shallows of SyrtisG4950, they letG5465 downG5465 the 7seaG4632 anchorG4632 and in thisG3779 wayG3779 let themselves be drivenG5342 along.
