Acts - Chapter: 27


27:1	And when it was determined that we should sail into Italy, they delivered Paul and certain other prisoners unto one named Julius, a centurion of Augustus' band.
27:2	And entering into a ship of Adramyttium, we launched, meaning to sail by the coasts of Asia; one Aristarchus, a Macedonian of Thessalonica, being with us.
27:3	And the next day we touched at Sidon. And Julius courteously entreated Paul, and gave him liberty to go unto his friends to refresh himself.
27:4	And when we had launched from thence, we sailed under Cyprus, because the winds were contrary.
27:5	And when we had sailed over the sea of Cilicia and Pamphylia, we came to Myra, a city of Lycia.
27:6	And there the centurion found a ship of Alexandria sailing into Italy; and he put us therein.
27:7	And when we had sailed slowly many days, and scarce were come over against Cnidus, the wind not suffering us, we sailed under Crete, over against Salmone;
27:8	And, hardly passing it, came unto a place which is called The fair havens; nigh whereunto was the city of Lasea.
27:9	Now when much time was spent, and when sailing was now dangerous, because the fast was now already past, Paul admonished them,
27:10	And said unto them, Sirs, I perceive that this voyage will be with hurt and much damage, not only of the lading and ship, but also of our lives.
27:11	Nevertheless the centurion believed the master and the owner of the ship, more than those things which were spoken by Paul.
27:12	And because the haven was not commodious to winter in, the more part advised to depart thence also, if by any means they might attain to Phenice, and there to winter; which is an haven of Crete, and lieth toward the south west and north west.
27:13	And when the south wind blew softly, supposing that they had obtained their purpose, loosing thence, they sailed close by Crete.
27:14	But not long after there arose against it a tempestuous wind, called Euroclydon.
27:15	And when the ship was caught, and could not bear up into the wind, we let her drive.
27:16	And running under a certain island which is called Clauda, we had much work to come by the boat:
27:17	Which when they had taken up, they used helps, undergirding the ship; and, fearing lest they should fall into the quicksands, strake sail, and so were driven.
27:18	And we being exceedingly tossed with a tempest, the next day they lightened the ship;
27:19	And the third day we cast out with our own hands the tackling of the ship.
27:20	And when neither sun nor stars in many days appeared, and no small tempest lay on us, all hope that we should be saved was then taken away.
27:21	But after long abstinence Paul stood forth in the midst of them, and said, Sirs, ye should have hearkened unto me, and not have loosed from Crete, and to have gained this harm and loss.
27:22	And now I exhort you to be of good cheer: for there shall be no loss of any man's life among you, but of the ship.
27:23	For there stood by me this night the angel of God, whose I am, and whom I serve,
27:24	Saying, Fear not, Paul; thou must be brought before Caesar: and, lo, God hath given thee all them that sail with thee.
27:25	Wherefore, sirs, be of good cheer: for I believe God, that it shall be even as it was told me.
27:26	Howbeit we must be cast upon a certain island.
27:27	But when the fourteenth night was come, as we were driven up and down in Adria, about midnight the shipmen deemed that they drew near to some country;
27:28	And sounded, and found it twenty fathoms: and when they had gone a little further, they sounded again, and found it fifteen fathoms.
27:29	Then fearing lest we should have fallen upon rocks, they cast four anchors out of the stern, and wished for the day.
27:30	And as the shipmen were about to flee out of the ship, when they had let down the boat into the sea, under colour as though they would have cast anchors out of the foreship,
27:31	Paul said to the centurion and to the soldiers, Except these abide in the ship, ye cannot be saved.
27:32	Then the soldiers cut off the ropes of the boat, and let her fall off.
27:33	And while the day was coming on, Paul besought them all to take meat, saying, This day is the fourteenth day that ye have tarried and continued fasting, having taken nothing.
27:34	Wherefore I pray you to take some meat: for this is for your health: for there shall not an hair fall from the head of any of you.
27:35	And when he had thus spoken, he took bread, and gave thanks to God in presence of them all: and when he had broken it, he began to eat.
27:36	Then were they all of good cheer, and they also took some meat.
27:37	And we were in all in the ship two hundred threescore and sixteen souls.
27:38	And when they had eaten enough, they lightened the ship, and cast out the wheat into the sea.
27:39	And when it was day, they knew not the land: but they discovered a certain creek with a shore, into the which they were minded, if it were possible, to thrust in the ship.
27:40	And when they had taken up the anchors, they committed themselves unto the sea, and loosed the rudder bands, and hoised up the mainsail to the wind, and made toward shore.
27:41	And falling into a place where two seas met, they ran the ship aground; and the forepart stuck fast, and remained unmoveable, but the hinder part was broken with the violence of the waves.
27:42	And the soldiers' counsel was to kill the prisoners, lest any of them should swim out, and escape.
27:43	But the centurion, willing to save Paul, kept them from their purpose; and commanded that they which could swim should cast themselves first into the sea, and get to land:
27:44	And the rest, some on boards, and some on broken pieces of the ship. And so it came to pass, that they escaped all safe to land.


27:1	And when it was determined, that wee should saile into Italy, they deliuered Paul, & certaine other prisoners, vnto one named Iulius, a centurion of Augustus band.
27:2	And entring into a ship of Adramyttium, wee lanched, meaning to saile by the coasts of Asia, one Aristarchus a Macedonian, of Thessalonica, beeing with vs.
27:3	And the next day wee touched at Sidon: And Iulius courteously entreated Paul, and gaue him libertie to goe vnto his friends to refresh himselfe.
27:4	And when we had lanched from thence, we sailed vnder Cyprus, because the winds were contrary.
27:5	And when we had sailed ouer the sea of Cilicia and Pamphylia, wee came to Myra a citie of Lysia.
27:6	And there the Centurion found a ship of Alexandria sailing into Italy, and he put vs therein.
27:7	And when wee had sailed slowly many dayes, and scarse were come ouer against Gnidus, the wind not suffering vs, wee sailed vnder Creete, ouer against Salmone,
27:8	And hardly passing it, came vnto a place which is called the Faire hauens, nigh whereunto was the citie of Lasea.
27:9	Now when much time was spent, and when sailing was now dangerous, because the Fast was now alreadie past, Paul admonished them,
27:10	And said vnto them, Sirs, I perceiue that this voyage will be with hurt and much damage, not onely of the lading & ship, but also of our liues.
27:11	Neuerthelesse, the Centurion beleeued the master and the owner of the shippe, more then those things which were spoken by Paul.
27:12	And because the hauen was not commodious to winter in, the more part aduised to depart thence also, if by any meanes they might attaine to Phenice, and there to winter; which is an hauen of Creete, and lieth toward the Southwest, and Northwest.
27:13	And when the South wind blew softly, supposing that they had obtained their purpose, loosing thence, they sailed close by Creete.
27:14	But not long after, there arose against it a tempestuous winde, called Euroclydon.
27:15	And when the ship was caught, and could not beare vp into the winde, we let her driue.
27:16	And running vnder a certaine yland, which is called Clauda, wee had much worke to come by the boate:
27:17	Which when they had taken vp, they vsed helps, vnder-girding the ship; and fearing lest they should fall into the quicke-sands, strake saile, and so were driuen.
27:18	And being exceedingly tossed with a tempest the next day, they lightened the ship:
27:19	And the third day we cast out with our owne handes the tackling of the shippe.
27:20	And when neither Sunne nor starres in many dayes appeared, and no small tempest lay on vs; all hope that wee should be saued, was then taken away.
27:21	But after long abstinence, Paul stood foorth in the middes of them, and said, Sirs, yee should haue hearkened vnto mee, and not haue loosed from Creete, and to haue gained this harme and losse.
27:22	And now I exhort you to be of good cheere: for there shall be no losse of any mans life among you, but of the shippe.
27:23	For there stood by me this night the Angel of God, whose I am, and whom I serue,
27:24	Saying, Feare not Paul, thou must be brought before Cesar, and loe, God hath giuen thee all them that saile with thee.
27:25	Wherefore, sirs, be of good cheere: for I beleeue God, that it shall be euen as it was tolde me.
27:26	Howbeit, we must be cast vpon a certaine Iland.
27:27	But when the fourteenth night was come, as wee were driuen vp and downe in Adria about midnight, the shipmen deemed that they drew neere to some countrey:
27:28	And sounded, and found it twentie fathoms: and when they had gone a little further, they sounded againe, and found it fifteene fathoms.
27:29	Then fearing lest we should haue fallen vpon rockes, they cast foure ancres out of the sterne, and wished for the day.
27:30	And as the shipmen were about to flee out of the ship, when they had let downe the boat into the sea, vnder colour as though they would haue cast ancres out of the fore-ship,
27:31	Paul said to the Centurion, and to the souldiers, Except these abide in the ship, ye cannot be saued.
27:32	Then the souldiers cut off the ropes of the boat, and let her fall off.
27:33	And while the day was comming on, Paul besought them all to take meat, saying, This day is the fourteenth day that ye haue taried, and continued fasting, hauing taken nothing.
27:34	Wherefore, I pray you to take some meat, for this is for your health: for there shall not an haire fall from the head of any of you.
27:35	And when hee had thus spoken, hee tooke bread, and gaue thankes to God in presence of them all, and when he had broken it, he began to eate.
27:36	Then were they all of good cheere, and they also tooke some meat.
27:37	And we were in all, in the ship, two hundred, threescore and sixteene soules.
27:38	And when they had eaten enough, they lightened the ship, and cast out the wheat into the sea.
27:39	And when it was day, they knew not the land: but they discouered a certaine creek, with a shore, into the which they were minded, if it were possible, to thrust in the ship.
27:40	And when they had taken vp the ankers, they committed themselues vnto the sea, & loosed the rudder bands, and hoised vp the maine saile to the winde, and made toward shore.
27:41	And falling into a place where two seas met, they ranne the shippe a ground, and the forepart stucke fast, and remained vnmoueable, but the hinder part was broken with the violence of the waues.
27:42	And the souldiers counsel was to kil the prisoners, lest any of them should swimme out, and escape.
27:43	But the Centurion, willing to saue Paul, kept them from their purpose, and commanded that they which could swimme, should cast themselues first into the sea, and get to land:
27:44	And the rest, some on boords, and some on broken pieces of the ship: and so it came to passe that they escaped all safe to land.


27:1	When it was cocluded that we shuld sayle into Italy they delivered Paul and certayne other presoners vnto one named Iulius an vnder captayne of Cesars soudiars.
27:2	And we entred into a ship of Adramicium and lowsed from lond apoynted to sayle by the costes of Asia one Aristarcus out of Macedonia of the contre of Thessalia beinge with vs.
27:3	And the nexte daye we came to Sidon. And Iulius courteously entreated Paul and gave him liberte to goo vnto his frendes and to refresshe him selfe.
27:4	And from thence lanched we and sayled harde by Cypers because the wyndes were contrarye.
27:5	Then sayled we over the see of Cilicia and Pamphylia and came to Myra a cite in Lycia.
27:6	And there ye vnder captayne founde a shippe of Alexander redy to sayle into Italy and put vs therin.
27:7	And when we had sayled slowly many dayes and scace were come over agaynst Gnydon (because the wynde with stode vs) we sayled harde by the costes of Candy over agaynste Salmo
27:8	and with moche worke sayled beyonde yt and came vnto a place called good porte. Nye whervnto was a citie called Lasea.
27:9	When moche tyme was spent and saylinge was now ieoperdeous because also that we had overlonge fasted Paul put them in remembraunce
27:10	and sayde vnto them Syrs I perceave that this vyage wilbe with hurte and moche domage not of the ladynge and ship only: but also of oure lyves.
27:11	Neverthelather the vndercaptayne beleved the governer and the master better then tho thinges which were spoken of Paul.
27:12	And because the haven was not comodius to wynter in many toke counsell to departe thence yf by eny meanes they myght attayne to Phenices and there to wynter which is an haven of Candy and servith to the southwest and northwest wynde.
27:13	When the south wynde blewe they supposynge to obtayne their purpose lowsed vnto Asson and sayled paste all Candy.
27:14	But anone after ther arose agaynste their purpose a flawe of wynde out of the northeeste.
27:15	And when the ship was caught and coulde not resist the wynde we let her goo and drave with the wether.
27:16	And we came vnto an yle named Clauda and had moche worke to come by abote
27:17	which they toke vp and vsed helpe vndergerdynge the shippe fearynge lest we shuld have fallen into Syrtes and we let doune a vessell and so were caryed.
27:18	The nexte daye when we were tossed wt an exceadynge tempest they lyghtened ye ship
27:19	and the thyrde daye we cast out with oure awne hondes the tacklynge of the shippe.
27:20	When at the last nether sunne nor starre in many dayes appered and no small tempest laye apon vs all hope that we shuld be saved was then taken awaye.
27:21	Then after longe abstinence Paul stode forth in the myddes of them and sayde: Syrs ye shulde have harkened to me and not have lowsed from Candy nether to have brought vnto vs this harme and losse.
27:22	And nowe I exhorte you to be of good chere. For ther shalbe no losse of eny mas lyfe amonge you save of the ship only.
27:23	For ther stode by me this nyght the angell of God whose I am and whom I serve
27:24	sayinge: feare not Paul for thou must be brought before Cesar. And lo God hath geven vnto the all that sayle with ye.
27:25	Wherfore Syrs be of good chere: for I beleve God that so it shalbe even as it was tolde me.
27:26	How be it we must be cast into a certayne ylonde.
27:27	But when ye fourtethe nyght was come as we were caryed in Adria about mydnyght the shipmen demed that ther appered some countre vnto the:
27:28	and sounded and founde it .xx. feddoms. And when they had gone a lytell further they sounded agayne and founde .xv. feddoms.
27:29	Then fearinge lest they shuld have fallen on some Rocke they cast .iiii. ancres out of the sterne and wysshed for ye daye.
27:30	As the shipmen were about to fle out of the ship and had let doune the bote into the see vnder a coloure as though they wolde have cast ancres out of the forshippe:
27:31	Paul sayd vnto ye vnder captayne and the soudiers: excepte these abyde in the ship ye cannot be safe.
27:32	Then the soudiers cut of the rope of the bote and let it fall awaye.
27:33	And in ye meane tyme betwixt that and daye Paul besought them all to take meate sayinge: this is ye fourtenthe daye that ye have taried and continued fastynge receavinge nothinge at all.
27:34	Wherfore I praye you to take meate: for this no dout is for youre helth: for ther shall not an heere fall fro the heed of eny of you.
27:35	And when he had thus spoke he toke breed and gave thankes to God in presence of the all and brake it and begane to eate.
27:36	Then were they all of good cheare and they also toke meate.
27:37	We were all together in ye ship two hundred thre score and sixtene soules.
27:38	And whe they had eate ynough they lightened ye ship and cast out the wheate into the see.
27:39	Whe yt was daye they knew not ye lande but they spied a certayne haven with a banke into ye which they were mynded (yf yt were possible) to thrust in the ship.
27:40	And when they had taken vp the ancres they comytted them selves vnto the see and lowsed the rudder bondes and hoysed vp ye mayne sayle to the wynde and drue to londe.
27:41	But they chaunsed on a place which had the see on bothe the sydes and thrust in the ship. And the foore parte stucke fast and moved not but ye hynder brake with the violence of the waves.
27:42	The soudears counsell was to kyll ye presoners lest eny of them when he had swome out shulde fle awaye.
27:43	But the vndercaptayne willinge to save Paul kept the from their purpose and commaunded that they yt could swyme shulde cast the selves first in to ye see and scape to londe.
27:44	And the other he comaunded to goo some on bordes and some on broken peces of the ship. And so it came to passe that they came all safe to londe.
