Acts 27:13-19
-
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, we had 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 we 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.
