ylt @Acts:27:9 @And much time being spent , and the sailing being now dangerous -- because of the fast also being already past -- Paul was admonishing , ylt @Acts:27:10 @saying to them , 'Men , I perceive that with hurt , and much damage , not only of the lading and of the ship , but also of our lives -- the voyage is about to be ;' ylt @Acts:27:11 @but the centurion to the pilot and to the shipowner gave credence more than to the things spoken by Paul ; ylt @Acts:27:12 @and the haven being incommodious to winter in , the more part gave counsel to sail thence also , if by any means they might be able , having attained to Phenice , [there ] to winter , [which is ] a haven of Crete , looking to the south-west and north-west , ylt @Acts:27:13 @and a south wind blowing softly , having thought they had obtained [their ] purpose , having lifted anchor , they sailed close by Crete , ylt @Acts:27:14 @and not long after there arose against it a tempestuous wind , that is called Euroclydon , ylt @Acts:27:15 @and the ship being caught , and not being able to bear up against the wind , having given [her ] up , we were borne on , ylt @Acts:27:16 @and having run under a certain little isle , called Clauda , we were hardly able to become masters of the boat , ylt @Acts:27:17 @which having taken up , they were using helps , undergirding the ship , and fearing lest they may fall on the quicksand , having let down the mast -- so were borne on . ylt @Acts:27:18 @And we , being exceedingly tempest-tossed , the succeeding [day ] they were making a clearing , ylt @Acts:27:19 @and on the third [day ] with our own hands the tackling of the ship we cast out , ylt @Acts:27:20 @and neither sun nor stars appearing for more days , and not a little tempest lying upon us , thenceforth all hope was taken away of our being saved . ylt @Acts:27:21 @And there having been long fasting , then Paul having stood in the midst of them , said , 'It behoved [you ], indeed , O men -- having hearkened to me -- not to set sail from Crete , and to save this hurt and damage ; ylt @Acts:27:22 @and now I exhort you to be of good cheer , for there shall be no loss of life among you -- but of the ship ; ylt @Acts:27:23 @for there stood by me this night a messenger of God -- whose I am , and whom I serve -- ylt @Acts:27:24 @saying , Be not afraid Paul ; before Caesar it behoveth thee to stand ; and , lo , God hath granted to thee all those sailing with thee ; ylt @Acts:27:25 @wherefore be of good cheer , men ! for I believe God , that so it shall be , even as it hath been spoken to me , ylt @Acts:27:26 @and on a certain island it behoveth us to be cast .' ylt @Acts:27:27 @And when the fourteenth night came -- we being borne up and down in the Adria -- toward the middle of the night the sailors were supposing that some country drew nigh to them ; ylt @Acts:27:28 @and having sounded they found twenty fathoms , and having gone a little farther , and again having sounded , they found fifteen fathoms ,
