9 Now whan moch tyme was spent, and saylinge was now ioperdous, because that they also had fasted ouerlonge, Paul exhorted them,
10 and sayde vnto them: Syrs, I se that this saylinge wyl be with hurte and moch dammage, not onely of the ladynge and of the shippe, but also of oure lyues.
11 Neuertheles ye vndercaptayne beleued the gouernoure of the shippe and ye master, more then it that was spoken of Paul.
12 And for somoch as the haue was not comodious to wynter in, the more parte off them toke councell to departe thece, yf by eny meanes they might come to Phenices to wynter there, which is an hauen of Candy, towarde the Southwest and Northwest wynde.
13 Whan the South wynde blewe, they supposinge to haue had their purpose, lowsed vnto Asson, and sayled past all Candy.
14 But not longe after, there rose agaynst their purpose a flawe of wynde, which is called the Northeast.
15 And whan the shippe was caught, and coulde not resist ye wynde, we let her go, and draue with the wedder.
16 But we came to an Ile named Claudia, where we coulde scarce get a bote.
17 Which they toke vp, and vsed helpe, and bounde it vnder harde to the shippe, fearinge lest they shulde haue fallen in to the Syrtes, and let downe the vessell, and so were caried.
18 And whan we had bydden a greate tepest, on the nexte daye they made an outcastinge.
19 And on the thirde daye with oure awne handes we cast out the tacklynge of the shippe.
20 But wha nether Sonne ner starres appeared in many dayes, and no small tempest laye vpon vs, all the hope of oure life was taken awaye.
21 And after longe abstinence, Paul stode forth in the myddes of the, and sayde: Syrs, ye shulde haue herkened vnto me, and not to haue lowsed from Candy, and not to haue broughte vs this harme and losse.
22 And now I exhorte you to be of good cheare, for there shal none of oure lyues perishe, but the shippe onely.
23 For this night stode by me the angell off God (whose I am, & who I serue)
24 & saide: Feare not Paul, thou must be broughte before the Emperoure. And lo, God hath geuen vnto the all the that sayle with the.
25 Wherfore syrs be of good cheare: for I beleue God, yt it shal come so to passe, as it was tolde me.
26 Howbeit we must be cast in to a certayne ylonde.
27 But whan the fourtenth night came, as we were caried in Adria aboute mydnight, ye shipmen demed that there appeared some countre vnto them,
28 and they cast out the leade, and founde it twetye feddoms: and wha they were gone a litle farther, they cast out the leade agayne, and founde fyftene feddoms.
