| 1 | When it was determined that we should sail for Italy, they delivered Paul and certain other prisoners to a centurion named Julius, of the Augustan band. | Ac 19:21 Ac 23:11 Ac 25:12 Ac 25:25 Gn 50:20 Ps 33:11 Ps 76:10 Pr 19:21 Lam 3:27 Dn 4:35 Ro 15:22-29 |
| 2 | Embarking in a ship of Adramyttium, which was about to sail to places on the coast of Asia, we put to sea, Aristarchus, a Macedonian of Thessalonica, being with us. | Ac 21:1 Lk 8:22 |
| 3 | The next day, we touched at Sidon. Julius treated Paul kindly, and gave him permission to go to his friends and refresh himself. | Ac 12:20 Gn 10:15 Gn 49:13 Isa 23:2-4 Isa 23:12-4 Zc 9:2 |
| 4 | Putting to sea from there, we sailed under the lee of Cyprus, because the winds were contrary. | Ac 4:36 Ac 11:19 Ac 11:20 Ac 13:4 Ac 15:39 Ac 21:3 Ac 21:16 |
| 5 | When we had sailed across the sea which is off Cilicia and Pamphylia, we came to Myra, a city of Lycia. | Ac 6:9 Ac 15:23 Ac 15:41 Ac 21:39 Ac 22:3 Ga 1:21 |
| 6 | There the centurion found a ship of Alexandria sailing for Italy, and he put us on board. | Ac 6:9 Ac 18:24 Ac 28:11 |
| 7 | When we had sailed slowly many days, and had come with difficulty opposite Cnidus, the wind not allowing us further, we sailed under the lee of Crete, opposite Salmone. | Ac 27:12 Ac 27:13 Ac 27:21 Ac 2:11 Tit 1:5 Tit 1:12 |
| 8 | With difficulty sailing along it we came to a certain place called Fair Havens, near the city of Lasea. |
| 9 | When much time was spent, and the voyage was now dangerous, because the Fast had now already gone by, Paul admonished them, | Lv 16:29 Lv 23:27-29 Nm 29:7 |
| 10 | and said to them, "Sirs, I perceive that the voyage will be with injury and much loss, not only of the cargo and the ship, but also of our lives." | Ac 27:21-26 Ac 27:31-26 Ac 27:34-26 Gn 41:16-25 Gn 41:38-25 Gn 41:39-25 2Ki 6:9 2Ki 6:10 Ps 25:14 Dn 2:30 Am 3:7 |
| 11 | But the centurion gave more heed to the master and to the owner of the ship than to those things which were spoken by Paul. | Ac 27:21 Ex 9:20 Ex 9:21 2Ki 6:10 Pr 27:12 Ezk 3:17 Ezk 3:18 Ezk 33:4 Heb 11:7 |
| 12 | Because the haven was not suitable to winter in, the majority advised to put to sea from there, if by any means they could reach Phoenix, and winter there, which is a port of Crete, looking northeast and southeast. | Ac 27:8 Ps 107:30 |
| 13 | When the south wind blew softly, supposing that they had obtained their purpose, they weighed anchor and sailed along Crete, close to shore. | Jb 37:17 Ps 78:26 So 4:16 Lk 12:55 |
| 14 | But after no long time there beat down from it a tempestuous wind, which is called Euroclydon. | Ex 14:21-27 Jon 1:3-5 |
| 15 | When the ship was caught, and couldn`t face the wind, we gave way to it, and were driven along. | Ac 27:27 Jm 3:4 |
| 16 | Running under the lee of a small island called Clauda, we were able, with difficulty, to secure the boat. |
| 17 | When they had hoisted it up, they used cables to help reinforce the ship. Fearing that they would run aground on the Syrtis sand bars, they lowered the sea anchor, and so were driven. | Ac 27:29 Ac 27:41 |
| 18 | As we labored exceedingly with the storm, the next day they began to throw things overboard. | Ps 107:27 |
| 19 | On the third day, they threw out the ship`s tackle with their own hands. | Jb 2:4 Jon 1:5 Mk 8:35-37 Lk 9:24 Lk 9:25 |
| 20 | When neither sun nor stars shone on us for many days, and no small tempest pressed on us, all hope that we should be saved was now taken away. | Ex 10:21-23 Ps 105:28 Mt 24:29 |
| 21 | When they had been long without food, Paul stood up in the midst of them, and said, "Sirs, you should have listened to me, and not have set sail from Crete, and have gotten this injury and loss. | Ac 27:33-35 Ps 107:5 Ps 107:6 |
| 22 | Now I exhort you to cheer up, for there will be no loss of life among you, but only of the ship. | Ac 27:25 Ac 27:36 Ac 23:11 1Sa 30:6 Ezr 10:2 Jb 22:29 Jb 22:30 Ps 112:7 Isa 43:1 Isa 43:2 2Co 1:4-6 2Co 4:8 2Co 4:9 |
| 23 | For there stood by me this night an angel, belonging to the God whose I am and whom I serve, | Ac 5:19 Ac 12:8-11 Ac 12:23-11 Ac 23:11 Dn 6:22 Heb 1:14 Rev 22:16 |
| 24 | saying, `Don`t be afraid, Paul. You must stand before Caesar. Behold, God has granted you all those who sail with you.` | Ac 18:9 Ac 18:10 Gn 15:1 Gn 46:3 1Ki 17:13 2Ki 6:16 Isa 41:10-14 Isa 43:1-5 Mt 10:28 Rev 1:17 |
| 25 | Therefore, sirs, cheer up! For I believe God, that it will be just as it has been spoken to me. | Ac 27:11 Ac 27:21 Nm 23:19 2Ch 20:20 Lk 1:45 Ro 4:20 Ro 4:21 2Ti 1:12 |
| 26 | But we must run aground on a certain island." | Ac 28:1 |
| 27 | But when the fourteenth night was come, as we were driven back and forth in the Adriatic Sea, about midnight the sailors surmised that they were drawing near to some land. | Ac 27:30 1Ki 9:27 Jon 1:6 Rev 18:17 |
| 28 | They took soundings, and found twenty fathoms. After a little while, they took soundings again, and found fifteen fathoms. |
| 29 | Fearing that we would run aground on rocky ground, they let go four anchors from the stern, and wished for daylight. | Ac 27:17 Ac 27:41 |
| 30 | As the sailors were trying to flee out of the ship, and had lowered the boat into the sea, pretending that they would lay out anchors from the bow, | Ac 27:16 Ac 27:32 |
| 31 | Paul said to the centurion and to the soldiers, "Unless these stay in the ship, you can`t be saved." | Ac 27:11 Ac 27:21 Ac 27:42 Ac 27:43 |
| 32 | Then the soldiers cut away the ropes of the boat, and let her fall off. | Lk 16:8 Php 3:7-9 |
| 33 | While the day was coming on, Paul begged them all to take some food, saying, "This day is the fourteenth day that you wait and continue fasting, having taken nothing. |
| 34 | Therefore I beg you to take some food, for this is for your safety; for there will not a hair perish from the head of any of you." | Mt 15:32 Mk 8:2 Mk 8:3 Php 2:5 1Ti 5:23 |
| 35 | When he had said this, and had taken bread, he gave thanks to God in the presence of all, and he broke it, and began to eat. | Ac 2:46 Ac 2:47 1Sa 9:13 Mt 15:36 Mk 8:6 Lk 24:30 Jn 6:11 Jn 6:23 Ro 14:6 1Co 10:30 1Co 10:31 1Ti 4:3 1Ti 4:4 |
| 36 | Then were they all of good cheer, and they also took food. | Ps 27:14 2Co 1:4-6 |
| 37 | We were in all in the ship two hundred seventy-six souls. | Ac 2:41 Ac 7:14 Ro 13:1 1Pe 3:20 |
| 38 | When they had eaten enough, they lightened the ship, throwing out the wheat into the sea. | Ac 27:18 Ac 27:19 Jb 2:4 Jon 1:5 Mt 6:25 Mt 16:26 Heb 12:1 |
| 39 | When it was day, they didn`t recognize the land, but they noticed a certain bay with a beach, and they decided to try to drive the ship onto it. |
| 40 | Casting off the anchors, they left them in the sea, at the same time untying the rudder ropes. Hoisting up the foresail to the wind, they made for the beach. | Ac 27:29 Ac 27:30 |
| 41 | But coming to a place where two seas met, they ran the vessel aground. The bow struck and remained immovable, but the stern began to break up by the violence of the waves. | Ac 27:17 Ac 27:26-29 2Co 11:25 |
| 42 | The soldiers` counsel was to kill the prisoners, so that none of them would swim out and escape. | Ps 74:20 Pr 12:10 Ec 9:3 Mk 15:15-20 Lk 23:40 Lk 23:41 |
| 43 | But the centurion, desiring to save Paul, stopped them from their purpose, and commanded that those who could swim should throw themselves overboard first to go to the land; | Ac 27:3 Ac 27:11 Ac 27:31 Ac 23:10 Ac 23:24 Pr 16:7 2Co 11:25 |
| 44 | and the rest, some on planks, and some on other things from the ship. So it happened that they all escaped safely to the land. | Ac 27:22 Ac 27:24 Ps 107:28-30 Am 9:9 Jn 6:39 Jn 6:40 2Co 1:8-10 1Pe 4:18 |
