emtv - Acts:27:9-28

emtv@Acts:27:9 @ Now when much time had been spent, the voyage having already become dangerous, because the Fast had already gone by, Paul recommended,

emtv@Acts:27:10 @ saying to them, "Men, I perceive this voyage is going to be with hardship and much loss, not only of the cargo and of the ship but also our lives."

emtv@Acts:27:11 @ But the centurion was persuaded by the helmsman and the ship owner, rather than by the things being said by Paul.

emtv@Acts:27:12 @ And because the harbor was not suitable to winter in, the majority gave counsel to put to sea from there, if perhaps they might be able to get to Phoenix to spend the winter there, a harbor of Crete opening toward the southwest and to the northwest.

emtv@Acts:27:13 @ And when a south wind blew gently, supposing they had attained their purpose, they weighed anchor and sailed along close in shore to Crete.

emtv@Acts:27:14 @ But not long after, a head wind like a hurricane arose, called [a ]Euroclydon;

emtv@Acts:27:15 @ and when the ship was seized by it, and not being able to face into the wind, we were being driven along, [having ]given in [to the wind.]

emtv@Acts:27:16 @ And running under the sheltered side of a certain little island called Clauda, we secured the skiff with difficulty.

emtv@Acts:27:17 @ And having hoisted it up, they used cables for undergirding the ship; and being afraid lest they run aground in the Syrtes [Shallows], they let down the driving anchor, thus they were being driven along [by the wind.]

emtv@Acts:27:18 @ And because we were exceedingly tempest-tossed, the next day they lightened the ship.

emtv@Acts:27:19 @ And on the third day we threw off the equipment of the ship with our own hands.

emtv@Acts:27:20 @ And neither the sun nor stars appeared for many days, and no small storm pressed on us, finally all hope for us to be saved was taken away.

emtv@Acts:27:21 @ Now when they had abstained from food for a long time, then stood Paul in the midst of them and said, "Men, you should have followed my advice and not put to sea from Crete, and to spare [yourselves ]this hardship and loss.

emtv@Acts:27:22 @ And now I urge you to keep up [your] courage, for there will be loss of not one life among you, only of the ship.

emtv@Acts:27:23 @ For there stood by me this night an angel of the God to whom I belong, whom also I serve,

emtv@Acts:27:24 @ saying, 'Do not be afraid, Paul; for it is necessary for you to stand before Caesar; and behold, God has granted you all those sailing with you.'

emtv@Acts:27:25 @ "Therefore keep up your courage, men; for I believe God that it will be in the very manner it has been spoken to me.

emtv@Acts:27:26 @ However, it is necessary [for] us to run aground on a certain island."

emtv@Acts:27:27 @ Now when it was the fourteenth night, as we were driven about in the Adriatic Sea, in the middle of the night the sailors sensed that land was approaching them.

emtv@Acts:27:28 @ And having taken a sounding, they found it to be twenty fathoms; and when they had gone a little farther, they took soundings again and found it to be fifteen fathoms;
