Acts 27:7-17
7AndG1161 whenG1722 we had sailed slowlyG1020 manyG2425 daysG2250, andG2532 scarceG3433 were comeG1096 over againstG2596 CnidusG3588G2834, the windG3588G417 notG3361 sufferingG4330 usG1473, we sailed underG5284 CreteG3588G2914, over againstG2596 SalmoneG4534;
8AndG5037, hardlyG3433 passingG3881 itG846, cameG2064 untoG1519 a placeG5117 whichG5100 is calledG2564 The fairG2570 havensG3040; nighG1451 whereuntoG3739 wasG1510 the cityG4172 of LaseaG2996.
9NowG1161 when muchG2425 timeG5550 was spentG1230, andG2532 when sailingG3588G4144 wasG1510 nowG2235 dangerousG2000, becauseG1223 the fastG3588G3521 wasG3928 nowG2532 alreadyG2235 pastG3928, PaulG3588G3972 admonishedG3867 them,
10AndG2532 saidG3004 unto themG846, SirsG435, I perceiveG2334 thatG3754 this voyageG3588G4144 willG3195 beG1510 withG3326 hurtG5196 and muchG4183 damageG2209, notG3756 onlyG3440 of the ladingG3588G5414 andG2532 shipG3588G4143, butG235 alsoG2532 of ourG1473 livesG3588G5590.
11NeverthelessG1161 the centurionG1543 believedG3982 the masterG3588G2942 andG2532 the owner of the shipG3588G3490, moreG3123 thanG2228 those thingsG3588 which were spokenG3004 byG5259 PaulG3588G3972.
12AndG1161 because the havenG3588G3040 wasG5225 not commodiousG428 toG4314 winter inG3915, the more partG4119 advisedG5087 to departG321 thence alsoG2547, if by any meansG1513 they mightG1410 attainG2658 toG1519 PheniceG5405, and there to winterG3914; which is an havenG3040 of CreteG3588G2914, and liethG991 towardG2596 the south westG3047 andG2532 north westG5566.
13AndG1161 when the south windG3558 blew softlyG5285, supposing thatG1380 they had obtainedG2902 their purposeG3588G4286, loosingG142 thence, they sailedG3881 closeG788 by CreteG3588G2914.
14ButG1161 notG3756 longG4183 afterG3326 there aroseG906 againstG2596 itG846 a tempestuousG5189 windG417, calledG2564 EuroclydonG2148.
15AndG1161 when the shipG3588G4143 was caughtG4884, andG2532 couldG1410 notG3361 bear up intoG503 the windG3588G417, we letG1929 her driveG5342.
16AndG1161 running underG5295 a certainG5100 islandG3519 which is calledG2564 ClaudaG2802, we hadG2480 muchG3433 workG2480 to comeG1096 byG4031 the boatG3588G4627:
17WhichG3739 when they had taken upG142, they usedG5530 helpsG996, undergirdingG5269 the shipG3588G4143; andG5037, fearingG5399 lestG3361 they should fallG1601 intoG1519 the quicksandsG3588G4950, strakeG5465 sailG3588G4632, and soG3779 were drivenG5342.
