Acts 27:12

And as the harbour was not a good one in which to be for the winter, the greater number of them were for going out to sea, in order, if possible, to put in for the winter at Phoenix, a harbour of Crete, looking to the north-east and south-east.

and the haven being incommodious to winter in, the more part gave counsel to sail thence also, if by any means they might be able, having attained to Phenice, [there] to winter, [which is] a haven of Crete, looking to the south-west and north-west,

and as the harbour was inconvenient for wintering in, the majority were in favour of putting out to sea, to try whether they could get to Phoenix a harbour on the coast of Crete facing north-east and south-east to winter there.

Then, when for several days neither sun nor stars were seen and the terrific gale still harassed us, the last ray of hope was now vanishing.

Acts 27:21

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.

When for a long time they had taken but little food, Paul, standing up among them, said, "Sirs, you ought to have listened to me and not have sailed from Crete. You would then have escaped this suffering and loss.

Acts 27:27

But when the fourteenth day came, while we were going here and there in the Adriatic sea, about the middle of the night the sailors had an idea that they were getting near land;

And when the fourteenth night came we being borne up and down in the Adria toward the middle of the night the sailors were supposing that some country drew nigh to them;

It was now the fourteenth night, and we were drifting through the Sea of Adria, when, about midnight, the sailors suspected that land was close at hand.

Then for fear of possibly running on rocks, they threw out four anchors from the stern and waited impatiently for daylight.

Acts 27:30

Then the sailors made attempts secretly to get away from the ship, letting down a boat as if they were about to put down hooks from the front of the ship;

And the sailors seeking to flee out of the ship, and having let down the boat to the sea, in pretence as [if] out of the foreship they are about to cast anchors,

The sailors, however, wanted to make their escape from the ship, and had lowered the boat into the sea, pretending that they were going to lay out anchors from the bow.

Acts 27:31

But Paul said to the captain and his men, If you do not keep these men in the ship, you will not be safe.

And till the day was about to be, Paul was calling upon all to partake of nourishment, saying, `Fourteen days to-day, waiting, ye continue fasting, having taken nothing,

And continually, up till daybreak, Paul kept urging all on board to take some food. "This is the fourteenth day," he said, "that you have been anxiously waiting for the storm to cease, and have fasted, eating little or nothing.

Acts 27:34

So I make request to you to take food; for this is for your salvation: not a hair from the head of any of you will come to destruction.

wherefore I call upon you to take nourishment, for this is for your safety, for of not one of you shall a hair from the head fall;`

I therefore strongly advise you to take some food. This is essential for your safety. For not a hair will perish from the head of any one of you."

Acts 27:35

Acts 27:39

And when it was day, they had no knowledge of the land, but they saw an inlet of the sea with a floor of sand, and they had the idea of driving the ship up on to it if possible.

And when the day came, they were not discerning the land, but a certain creek were perceiving having a beach, into which they took counsel, if possible, to thrust forward the ship,

When daylight came, they tried in vain to recognise the coast. But an inlet with a sandy beach attracted their attention, and now their object was, if possible, to run the ship aground in this inlet.

Acts 27:40

So cutting away the hooks, and letting them go into the sea, and freeing the cords of the guiding-blades, and lifting up the sail to the wind, they went in the direction of the inlet.

and the anchors having taken up, they were committing [it] to the sea, at the same time having loosed the bands of the rudders, and having hoisted up the mainsail to the wind they were making for the shore,

So they cut away the anchors and left them in the sea, unloosing at the same time the bands which secured the paddle-rudders. Then, hoisting the foresail to the wind, they made for the beach.

But coming to a place where two seas met, they stranded the ship, and her bow sticking fast remained immovable, while the stern began to go to pieces under the heavy hammering of the sea.

Acts 27:42

Then the armed men were for putting the prisoners to death, so that no one would get away by swimming.

And the soldiers` counsel was that they should kill the prisoners, lest any one having swam out should escape,

Now the soldiers recommended that the prisoners should be killed, for fear some one of them might swim ashore and effect his escape.

Acts 27:43

But the captain, desiring to keep Paul safe, kept them from their purpose, and gave orders that those who had knowledge of swimming were to go off the ship and get first to land:

but the centurion, wishing to save Paul, hindered them from the counsel, and did command those able to swim, having cast themselves out first to get unto the land,

But their Captain, bent on securing Paul's safety, kept them from their purpose and gave orders that those who could swim should first jump overboard and get to land;

Acts 27:44

And the rest, some on boards and some on things from the ship. And so it came about that they all got safe to land.

and the rest, some indeed upon boards, and some upon certain things of the ship; and thus it came to pass that all came safe unto the land.

and that the rest should follow, some on planks, and others on various things from the ship. In this way they all got safely to land.
