2 Мы взошли на Адрамитский корабль и отправились, намереваясь плыть около Асийских мест. С нами был Аристарх, Македонянин из Фессалоники.

3 На другой день пристали к Сидону. Юлий, поступая с Павлом человеколюбиво, позволил ему сходить к друзьям и воспользоваться их усердием.

4 Отправившись оттуда, мы приплыли в Кипр, по причине противных ветров,

5 и, переплыв море против Киликии и Памфилии, прибыли в Миры Ликийские.

6 Там сотник нашел Александрийский корабль, плывущий в Италию, и посадил нас на него.

7 Медленно плавая многие дни и едва поровнявшись с Книдом, по причине неблагоприятного нам ветра, мы подплыли к Криту при Салмоне.

8 Пробравшись же с трудом мимо него, прибыли к одному месту, называемому Хорошие Пристани, близ которого был город Ласея.

9 But when enough time had passed, and the voyage was already dangerous, because the fast was already past, Paul advised,

10 And he said to them, 'Men! I see that the voyage will be difficult and very harmful, not only to the cargo and the ship, but also to our lives.

11 But the centurion had more confidence in the helmsman and the captain of the ship than in Paul's words.

12 And since the harbor was not adapted for wintering, many advised us to go from there, in order to go as far as Phoenice, the harbor of Crete, which lies against the southwest and northwest wind, and there to winter.

13 And the south wind blew, and they, thinking that they had already got what they wanted, set off and sailed near Crete.

14 But soon a stormy wind arose against him, called euroclydon.

15 The ship was seized so that she could not resist the wind, and we were tossed about by the waves.

16 And running into an island called Claudia, we could hardly hold the boat.

17 And when they had lifted it up, they began to use the aids, and to tie up the ship; but fearing not to run aground, they lowered the sail and thus rushed about.

18 And on the morrow, because of the great overwhelm, they began to throw out the cargo,

19 And on the third we threw things from the ship with our own hands.

20 But as for many days neither the sun nor the stars were to be seen, and a great storm continued, at last all hope of our salvation vanished.

21 And when they had not eaten for a long time, Paul stood in the midst of them, and said, "Men! it was necessary to obey me and not to depart from Crete, which would have avoided these difficulties and harms.

22 But now I exhort you to be of good cheer, for not one soul of you shall perish, but only the ship.
