And when the decision had been made that we were to go by sea to Italy, they gave Paul and certain other prisoners into the care of a captain named Julius, of the Augustan band.

2

And we went to sea in a ship of Adramyttium which was sailing to the sea towns of Asia, Aristarchus, a Macedonian of Thessalonica, being with us.

3

And on the day after, we came to Sidon and Julius was kind to Paul, and let him go to see his friends and take a rest.

4

And sailing again from there, we went on under cover of Cyprus, because the wind was against us.

5

And having gone across the sea off Cilicia and Pamphylia we came to Myra, in Lycia.

6

And there the captain came across a ship of Alexandria, sailing for Italy, and put us in it.

7

And when we had gone on slowly for a long time, and had had hard work getting across to Cnidus, for the wind was against us, we went under cover of Crete, in the direction of Salmone

8

And sailing down the side of it, as well as we were able, we came to a certain place named Fair Havens, near which was the town of Lasea.

9

And as a long time had gone by, and the journey was now full of danger, because it was late in the year, Paul put the position before them,

10

Saying, Friends, I see that this journey will be one of great damage and loss, not only to the goods and the ship, but to ourselves.

11

But the captain gave more attention to the master and the owner of the ship than to what Paul said.

And as the harbour was not a good one in which to be for the winter, the greater number of them were for going out to sea, in order, if possible, to put in for the winter at Phoenix, a harbour of Crete, looking to the north-east and south-east.
