Etheridge⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ And Festos commanded concerning him that he should be sent unto Caesar in Italia. And he delivered Paulos, and other prisoners with him, to a certain man, a centurion of the band of Sebaste, whose name was Julios. ² And when he would proceed, we went down to a ship which was from Adramantos the city, to go to the region of Asia. And Aristarkos, a Makedonoya who was of Thessalunike the city, entered the ship with us. ³ And the day after we came to Tsaidon. And the centurion behaved with kindness towards Paulos, and permitted him to go to his friends and be refreshed. ⁴ And from thence we voyaged; and because the winds were contrary we made a circuit unto Cypros.[Al Kypros.] ⁵ And we went through the sea of Cilicia and of Pamphulia, and came to Mura, a city of Lukia. ⁶ And the centurion found there a ship from Aleksandria which was going to Italia, and he placed us in her. ⁷ And because she sailed heavily, (after) many days we had scarce come over against Knidos the island, and as the wind did not permit us to go directly, we went round by Kreta against Salmona the city; ⁸ and hardly voyaging we passing around it came to the place which is called the Fair Havens. AND it was nigh to the city named Lasia. ⁹ And we were there much time, until the day when the day * of the fast of the Jihudoyee had also passed, and there had become danger for one to voyage by sea. And Paulos counselled them [* Tishri, 10th day : about September 20th.] ¹⁰ and said, Men, I perceive that with distress and much loss we are to voyage, not only to the burden of the ship, but also to our own lives. ¹¹ But the centurion hearkened to the governor and to the lord of the ship rather than to the counsel of Paulos. ¹² And because that haven was not convenient to winter in, many of us desired to proceed thence, and if possible to come and winter in a certain harbour in Kreta, called Phoniks, and which looked to the south. ¹³ And when the wind of the south blew, and we thought we could come as we desired, we sailed round Kreta. ¹⁴ And after a little there came forth against us a blowing of the tempest which is called Tuphonikos Euroklidon; ¹⁵ and the ship was carried away, and could not stand against the wind, and we gave her into its hand. ¹⁶ And when we had passed a certain isle that is called Cyra; we could scarcely take up the boat. ¹⁷ And when we had uplifted her, we girded and strengthened the ship. And because we feared lest we should fall into the precipitancy * of the sea, we brought down the sails, and so went forward. [* Locus declivis, descensus, praecipitium. Greek, snrtiv.] ¹⁸ And while there rose against us the hard tempest, the next day we threw the goods into the sea. ¹⁹ And the third day the things of the ship itself we cast forth. ²⁰ And when the storm had held more days, and neither the sun was seen, nor the moon, nor stars, the hope that we should be saved at all was cut off. ²¹ And while no man had taken any food, then stood Paulos among them, and said, Men, if you had been persuaded by me, you would not have voyaged from Kreta, and we should have been exempted from loss, and from this distress. ²² Yet now I counsel you to be without anxiety; for not one of you will perish, but the ship only. ²³ For in this night there appeared to me the angel of Aloha, (of) him whose I am, and whom I serve. ²⁴ And he said to me, Fear not, Paulos, for thou art to stand before Caesar; and, behold, Aloha hath given thee the gift of all who voyage with thee. ²⁵ Therefore, men, take courage; for I believe Aloha, that so it shall be as he hath told me. ²⁶ Nevertheless, upon a certain island we have to be cast. ²⁷ AND after fourteen days (in) which we had wandered and been beaten in the sea of Hadrios, in the dividing of the night, the mariners thought that we drew nigh to land. ²⁸ And they cast the lead, and found twenty cubits; and again a little they proceeded, and found fifteen cubits.
