1. And when it was decided that we would sail away to Italy, they handed over Paul and some other prisoners to a centurion named Julius of the Augustan Cohort.
2. And we went aboard a ship from Adramyttium that was about to sail to the places along the coast of Asia and put out to sea. Aristarchus, a Macedonian from Thessalonica, was with us.
3. And on the next day, we put in at Sidon. And Julius, treating Paul kindly, allowed him to go to his friends to be cared for.
4. And from there we put out to sea and sailed under the lee of Cyprus, because the winds were against us.
5. And after we had sailed across the open sea along Cilicia and Pamphylia, we put in at Myra in Lycia.
6. And there the centurion found an Alexandrian ship sailing for Italy and put us on board it.
7. And sailing slowly, in many days and with difficulty we came to Cnidus. Because the wind did not permit us to go further, we sailed under the lee of Crete off Salmone.
8. And sailing along its coast with difficulty, we came to a certain place called Fair Havens, near which was the town of Lasea.
9. And because considerable time had passed and the voyage was now dangerous because even the Fast was already over, Paul strongly recommended,
10. saying to them, “Men, I perceive that the voyage is going to end with disaster and great loss, not only of the cargo and the ship, but also of our lives!”
11. But the centurion was convinced even more by the shipmaster and the shipowner than by what was said by Paul.
12. And because the harbor was unsuitable for spending the winter in, the majority decided on a plan to put out to sea from there, if somehow they could arrive at Phoenix, a harbor of Crete facing toward the southwest and toward the northwest, to spend the winter there.
