New Testament

Acts 27:13-19 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

13. And a south wind blowing softly, thinking they had obtained their purpose, having lifted anchor, they sailed along Crete, close inshore.

14. And not long after, a stormy head wind rushed down from it, called Northeaster.

15. And when the ship was caught in it, and unable to head against the wind, we let her go and were driven.

16. And having run under a small island called Klauda, we were hardly able to control the small boat.

17. And having hoisted it, they used helps to undergird the ship. And fearing lest they should run aground on Surtis, they lowered the tackle and so were driven.

18. And because we were exceedingly storm-tossed, the next day they began to throw overboard.

19. And on the third day we threw out the ship’s tackle with our own hands.
