Acts 27:1-12
Paul Sails for Rome

1 And when it was determined that we should sail into Italy, they delivered Paul and certain other prisoners unto [one] named Julius, a centurion of Augustus’ band.

1:

2 And entering into a ship of Adramyttium, we launched, meaning to sail by the coasts of Asia; [one] Aristarchus, a Macedonian of Thessalonica, being with us.

2:

3 And the next [day] we touched at Sidon. And Julius courteously entreated Paul, and gave [him] liberty to go unto his friends to refresh himself.

3:

4 And when we had launched from thence, we sailed under Cyprus, because the winds were contrary.

4:

5 And when we had sailed over the sea of Cilicia and Pamphylia, we came to Myra, [a city] of Lycia.

5:

6 And there the centurion found a ship of Alexandria sailing into Italy; and he put us therein.

6:

7 And when we had sailed slowly many days, and scarce were come over against Cnidus, the wind not suffering us, we sailed under Crete, over against Salmone;

7:

8 And, hardly passing it, came unto a place which is called The fair havens; nigh whereunto was the city [of] Lasea.

8:

9 Now when much time was spent, and when sailing was now dangerous, because the fast was now already past, Paul admonished [them],

9:

10 And said unto them, Sirs, I perceive that this voyage will be with hurt and much damage, not only of the lading and ship, but also of our lives.

10:

11 Nevertheless the centurion believed the master and the owner of the ship, more than those things which were spoken by Paul.

11:

12 And because the haven was not commodious to winter in, the more part advised to depart thence also, if by any means they might attain to Phenice, [and there] to winter; [which is] an haven of Crete, and lieth toward the south west and north west.

12:
