[13] And when the south wind blew softly, supposing that they had obtained their purpose, loosing 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 a certain island which is called Clauda, much work to come by the boat: [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. [18] And being exceedingly tossed with a tempest, the next day they lightened the ship; [19] And the third day we cast out with our own hands the tackling of the ship. [20] And when neither sun nor stars in many days appeared, and no small tempest lay on us, all hope should be saved then taken away. [21] after long abstinence Paul stood forth in the midst of them, and said, Sirs, ye should have hearkened and not have loosed from Crete, and to have gained harm and loss. [22] And I exhort to be of good cheer: for no loss of any man's life among but of the ship. [23] For there stood by night the angel of God, whose I am, and whom I serve, [24] Saying, Fear not, Paul; must be brought before Caesar: and, lo, God hath given all them that sail with [25] Wherefore, sirs, be of good cheer: for I believe God, that it even as it was told [26] Howbeit must be cast upon a certain island.
