Acts 27:1-8

1When it was decided that we should sail for Italy, they handed Paul and some other prisoners over to a centurion named Julius, of the Augustan Cohort.

2So we boarded a ship from Adramyttium, which was about to sail to the ports along the coast of Asia, and we set out to sea—accompanied by Aristarchus, a Macedonian from Thessalonica.

3The next day we set down at Sidon. Julius, treating Paul kindly, let him go to his friends to receive care.

4Setting out to sea from there, we sailed under the shelter of Cyprus, because the winds were against us.

5When we had sailed across the open sea along the coast of Cilicia and Pamphylia, we came down to Myra in Lysia.

6There the centurion found a ship from Alexandria sailing for Italy and put us on board.

7Sailing slowly for a number of days, with difficulty we made it to Cnidus. As the wind did not allow us to go further, we sailed under the shelter of Crete, off Salmone.

8Coasting along it with difficulty, we came to a place called Fair Havens, near the city of Lasea.
