2
And entering into a ship from Adramyttium, we launched, meaning to sail along the coasts of Asia, one Aristarchus, a Macedonian of Thessalonica, being with us.
3
And the next day we touched at Sidon. And Julius courteously treated Paul, and gave him liberty to go unto his friends to refresh himself.
4
And when we had launched from thence, we sailed under the lee of Cyprus, because the winds were contrary.
5
And when we had sailed over the sea of Cilicia and Pamphylia, we came to Myra, a city of Lycia.
6
And there the centurion found a ship of Alexandria sailing for Italy, and he put us aboard.
7
And when we had sailed slowly many days and scarcely had come as far as Cnidus, the wind not suffering us, we sailed under the lee of Crete off Salmone;
8
and, with difficulty passing by it, we came unto a place which is called The Fair Havens, nigh unto the city of Lasea.

And when the south wind blew softly, supposing that they had obtained their purpose, casting loose from thence, they sailed close by Crete.
14
But not long after, there arose against it a tempestuous wind, called Euroclydon.
15
And when the ship was caught and could not bear up into the wind, we let her drive.
16
And running under the lee of a certain island, which is called Clauda, we had much work in securing the boat,
17
which when they had taken up, they used helps to undergird the ship. And fearing lest they should fall into the quicksands, they struck sail, and so were driven.

And being exceedingly tossed by a tempest, the next day they lightened the ship;
