Acts 27:14-17

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

15and when the shipG4143 was caughtG4884 in it and couldG1410 not headG503 upG503 intoG503 the windG417, we gaveG1929 upG1929 and let ourselves be drivenG5342 by the wind.

16RunningG5295 underG5295 theG5295 shelterG5295 of a smallG3519 islandG3519 calledG2564 CaudaG2802, we wereG2480 ableG2480 to getG1096 the ship’s 4boatG4627 underG4031 controlG4031 only withG3433 difficultyG3433.

17After they had hoistedG142 it upG142, 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 let themselves be drivenG5342 along inG3779 thisG3779 wayG3779.
