Berean Standard Bible
And
when our
sailing
to
Italy
was determined
, they
were
delivering
up
both
Paul and certain
others,
prisoners ,
to a centurion ,
by
name
Julius, of
the band
of
Sebastus,
When it
was decided
that
we
would
sail
for
Italy
, Paul and some
other
prisoners were
handed
over
to a centurion named
Julius, who
belonged
to
the Imperial
Regiment.
and
having
embarked
in
a
ship
of
Adramyttium,
we ,
being
about to sail by
the coasts
of Asia, did
set
sail,
there
being
with
us
Aristarchus, a Macedonian of
Thessalonica,
We boarded
an
Adramyttian
ship
about to sail for
ports
along
the coast
of Asia, and
we
put
out
to
sea.
Aristarchus, a Macedonian from
Thessalonica, was
with
us.
on
the next `
day '
also
we touched
at Sidon, and Julius ,
courteously
treating
Paul, did
permit
`
him ',
having
gone
on
unto
friends,
to receive `
their '
care.
The next day we landed
at Sidon, and Julius treated
Paul with
consideration
, allowing
him to visit
his
friends
and
receive their care.
And
thence,
having
set
sail
, we sailed under
Cyprus ,
because of
the winds being
contrary,
After
putting
out
from
there
, we sailed to
the
lee
of
Cyprus because the winds were
against
us.
and having
sailed over
the sea over-against
Cilicia and Pamphylia, we came to Myria
of
Lycia ,
And when
we
had
sailed across
the open
sea off
the
coast
of
Cilicia and Pamphylia, we came to Myra
in
Lycia .
and
there the centurion having
found a
ship of
Alexandria,
sailing to
Italy ,
did
put us into
it,
There the centurion found an
Alexandrian
ship sailing for
Italy and
put us on
board.
and
having
sailed
slowly many days, and
with
difficulty
coming
over-against
Cnidus ,
the wind not
suffering
us, we sailed under
Crete, over-against
Salmone ,
After
sailing
slowly for
many days, we
arrived
off
Cnidus .
When
the wind impeded
us, we sailed to
the
lee
of
Crete, opposite
Salmone .
and
hardly
passing
it
, we came to a certain
place called `
Fair Havens, '
nigh
to
which
was
the city
`
of '
Lasaea
.
After
we
had
moved
along
the
coast
with
difficulty
, we came to a place called Fair Havens, near
the town
of Lasea
.
And
much time being
spent
, and the sailing
being
now
dangerous --
because of
the fast also
being
already
past
--
Paul was
admonishing
,
By
now
much time had
passed
, and the voyage
had
already
become
dangerous because it
was
after
the Fast .
So
Paul advised
them
,
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;'
“
Men, I can
see
that our
voyage
will
be
filled
with disaster
and great
loss
, not only to
ship and
cargo
, but to
our own
lives as
well.”
but the centurion to
the pilot and to
the shipowner
gave
credence
more
than
to
the things
spoken
by
Paul;
But contrary
to
Paul’s
advice,
the centurion was
persuaded
by
the pilot and by
the owner
of
the ship.
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,
Since
the harbor
was
unsuitable
to winter in, the majority
decided
to sail on
, if somehow
they could
reach
Phoenix
to winter there.
Phoenix
was
a harbor
in
Crete facing
both
southwest
and northwest.
and
a south wind blowing
softly
, having
thought they had obtained
`
their '
purpose,
having
lifted
anchor,
they sailed close
by
Crete
,
When
a gentle
south wind began
to
blow
, they
thought they had their opportunity.
So
they weighed
anchor
and
sailed along
, hugging
the
coast
of
Crete.
and
not long after
there
arose
against
it
a tempestuous
wind,
that
is
called Euroclydon,
But
it
was
not long before
a cyclone
called the
Northeaster
swept
down
across
the
island.
and
the
ship
being
caught,
and
not
being
able
to bear
up
against
the wind, having
given
`her'
up ,
we were
borne
on,
Unable
to head
into
the wind, the
ship
was
caught
up .
So
we gave
way
and
let
ourselves
be
driven
along.
and
having
run
under
a certain
little
isle,
called Clauda
, we were
hardly
able
to become
masters
of
the boat,
Passing
to
the
lee
of
a small
island
called Cauda
, we barely
managed
to secure
the lifeboat.
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
.
After
hoisting
it
up, the crew
used
ropes
to
undergird
the
ship .
And fearing that
they would
run
aground
on the sandbars
of
Syrtis
, they
lowered
the sea
anchor
and
were driven
along
.
And
we ,
being
exceedingly
tempest-
tossed ,
the succeeding
`
day '
they
were
making
a
clearing,
We were
tossed so
violently
that
the next
day the
men
began
to
jettison
the
cargo.
and
on the third `
day '
with our
own hands the
tackling
of
the
ship
we
cast
out,
On the third day ,
they
threw
the
ship’s
tackle
overboard
with their
own hands .
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.
When
neither sun nor stars appeared
for many
days and the
great
storm
continued
to
batter
us, we
abandoned
all hope of being saved.
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;
After
the
men
had
gone
a
long time
without
food
, Paul stood up
among
them and
said, “
Men ,
you
should
have
followed
my
advice
not to sail from Crete .
Then
you
would
have
averted
this disaster
and loss.
and
now I exhort
you to be
of
good
cheer
, for
there
shall
be
no
loss of life among
you
--
but of the ship ;
But
now I urge
you to keep
up
your
courage
, because
you
will
not
experience
any
loss of life ,
but only
of the ship .
for there
stood
by
me
this
night a
messenger
of God --
whose I am ,
and whom I serve --
For just
last
night an
angel
of God ,
whose I am and whom I serve ,
stood
beside
me
saying
, Be
not afraid Paul; before Caesar it
behoveth
thee
to
stand;
and ,
lo
, God hath
granted to
thee
all those
sailing
with thee;
and
said
, ‘Do
not be
afraid ,
Paul; you
must
stand
before Caesar .
And look
, God has
granted you
the
lives
of
all who
sail
with you.’
wherefore
be
of
good
cheer
, men !
for I believe God ,
that so
it shall
be,
even
as it
hath
been
spoken
to
me ,
So
take
courage
, men ,
for I believe God that it will
happen
just
as He
told
me .
and
on a
certain
island it
behoveth
us
to
be
cast
. '
However,
we
must
run
aground
on some
island. ”
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;
On
the fourteenth night we were
still
being driven
across
the Adriatic
Sea.
About
midnight
the sailors sensed
they
were approaching
land.
and
having
sounded
they found twenty fathoms ,
and
having
gone
a little farther, and
again
having
sounded,
they found
fifteen fathoms ,
They took
soundings
and
found that
the
water
was
twenty fathoms deep.
Going
a little farther, they took
another
set
of
soundings
that
read
fifteen fathoms .
and
fearing lest
on
rough
places
we may
fall,
out
of
the stern
having
cast
four
anchors
, they were
wishing
day
to
come
.
Fearing that
we would
run
aground
on
the rocks
, they dropped
four
anchors
from
the
stern
and
prayed
for
daybreak
.
And
the sailors seeking
to flee
out
of
the ship, and
having
let down
the boat
to
the sea ,
in
pretence
as
`if'
out
of
the
foreship
they
are
about
to
cast
anchors,
Meanwhile,
the sailors attempted
to escape
from
the ship .
Pretending
to
lower
anchors
from
the
bow
, they
let the lifeboat
down
into
the sea .
Paul said to the centurion and to
the soldiers, `If
these do
not
remain in
the ship --
ye
are
not
able
to
be saved ;'
But
Paul said to the centurion and the soldiers, “Unless
these men
remain with
the ship ,
you
cannot
be saved .”
then
the soldiers did
cut off
the ropes of
the boat,
and suffered
it to
fall
off
.
So
the soldiers cut the ropes to
the lifeboat
and set
it adrift
.
And
till
the
day
was
about
to be
, Paul was
calling
upon
all to partake
of
nourishment,
saying,
`Fourteen
days
to-
day ,
waiting,
ye
continue
fasting,
having
taken
nothing
,
Right
up
to daybreak
, Paul kept
urging
them
all to eat:
“Today
is
your
fourteenth
day in
constant
suspense
, without
taking
any
food.
wherefore
I call
upon
you to take
nourishment,
for
this
is
for
your
safety
, for
of
not one
of
you
shall
a hair from
the
head fall;'
So
for
your
own
preservation,
I urge
you to eat
something
, because
not a single
hair of
your
head will
be
lost.”
and
having
said these
things
, and
having
taken
bread ,
he
gave thanks to God before
all ,
and
having
broken
`it',
he began to eat ;
After
he
had
said this
, Paul
took
bread and
gave thanks to God in
front
of
them
all .
Then
he broke
it
and
began to eat .
and
all having
become
of
good
cheer,
themselves
also
took food ,
They
were
all encouraged
and
took some
food themselves.
(and
we
were
--
all
the
souls
in the
ship
--
two
hundred,
seventy
and
six)
,
In all
, there
were
276
of
us
on
board.
and
having
eaten sufficient
nourishment
, they were
lightening
the ship ,
casting
forth
the wheat
into the sea.
After
the
men
had
eaten their
fill
, they lightened
the ship by
throwing
the grain
into the sea.
And
when the
day
came, they were
not discerning
the land, but a certain
creek
were
perceiving
having
a beach, into
which
they took
counsel,
if
possible,
to thrust
forward
the ship ,
When daylight
came, they did
not recognize
the land, but they
sighted
a bay
with
a sandy
beach, where
they decided
to run
the ship aground
if
they
could.
and
the anchors having
taken
up
, they were
committing
`it'
to
the sea ,
at
the
same
time
--
having
loosed
the bands
of
the rudders ,
and
having
hoisted up
the mainsail
to the wind --
they
were
making
for the shore,
Cutting
away
the anchors, they left
them
in
the sea as
they
loosened
the ropes
that
held
the rudders .
Then
they
hoisted the foresail
to the wind and
made
for the beach.
and
having
fallen
into
a place
of
two
seas,
they
ran the
ship
aground ,
and
the fore-part,
indeed,
having
stuck fast ,
did
remain
immoveable
, but
the hinder-part
was broken by the violence
of the waves.
But
the
vessel
struck
a sandbar
and
ran aground .
The bow
stuck fast and
would
not
move
, and
the stern
was being
broken up
by the pounding
of the waves.
And
the soldiers '
counsel
was
that
they
should
kill the prisoners ,
lest
any
one
having
swam
out
should
escape,
The soldiers planned
to
kill the prisoners so
none
of
them
could
swim
to
freedom.
but the centurion, wishing
to save
Paul,
hindered
them
from
the
counsel
, and
did
command
those able
to
swim ,
having
cast
themselves
out
first
--
to get unto
the
land ,
But the centurion, wanting
to spare
Paul’s
life
, thwarted
their
plan.
He
commanded
those who
could
swim to jump
overboard
first
and
get to
land .
and
the rest ,
some
indeed
upon
boards,
and some
upon
certain
things
of the ship ;
and
thus
it
came
to pass
that
all
came
safe
unto
the
land.
The rest were
to
follow
on
planks
and various
parts
of the ship .
In
this
way
everyone
was
brought
safely
to land.
