Now when much time was spent, and when sailing was now dangerous, because the fast was now already past, Paul admonished [them], (27:9)

And said unto them, Sirs, I perceive that this voyage will be with hurt and much damage, not only of the lading and ship, but also of our lives. (27:10)

Nevertheless the centurion believed the master and the owner of the ship, more than those things which were spoken by Paul. (27:11)

And because the haven was not commodious to winter in, the more part advised to depart thence also, if by any means they might attain to Phenice, [and there] to winter; [which is] an haven of Crete, and lieth toward the south west and north west. (27:12)

And when the south wind blew softly, supposing that they had obtained [their] purpose, loosing [thence], they sailed close by Crete. (27:13)

But not long after there arose against it a tempestuous wind, called Euroclydon. (27:14)

And when neither sun nor stars in many days appeared, and no small tempest lay on [us], all hope that we should be saved was then taken away. (27:20)
