But after a little time, a very violent wind, named Euraquilo, came down from it with great force.
15
And when the ship got into the grip of it, and was not able to make headway into the wind, we gave way, and went before it.
16
And, sailing near the side of a small island named Cauda, we were able, though it was hard work, to make the ship's boat safe:
17
And having got it up, they put cords under and round the ship; but fearing that they might be pushed on to the Syrtis, they let down the sails and so went running before the wind.
18
And, still fighting the storm with all our strength, the day after they made a start at getting the goods out of the ship;
19
And on the third day, they let all the sailing apparatus go over the side.
20
And as we had not seen the sun or stars for a long time, and a great storm was on us, all hope of salvation was gone.
21
And when they had been without food for a long time, Paul got up among them and said, Friends, it would have been better if you had given attention to me and not gone sailing out from Crete, to undergo this damage and loss.
22
But now, I say to you, be of good heart, for there will be no loss of life, but only of the ship.
23
For this night there came to my side an angel of the God who is my Master and whose servant I am,
24
Saying, Have no fear, Paul, for you will come before Caesar, and God has given to you all those who are sailing with you.
