Acts 27:13-20

MKJV(i) 13 And a south wind blowing softly, thinking to have obtained their purpose, lifting anchor, they sailed along close beside Crete. 14 But not long after, a stormy wind called Euroclydon beat down on it. 15 And the ship being seized, and not being able to beat against the wind, giving way we were borne along. 16 And running under an islet being called Clauda, we hardly were able to become masters of the boat; 17 which taking, they used helps, undergirding the ship. And fearing lest they should fall into the sandbanks of Syrtis, lowering the tackle, so they were borne along. 18 And being exceedingly storm-tossed with a tempest, they made a casting on the next day; 19 And on the third day we threw out the ship's tackle with our hands. 20 And neither sun nor stars appearing in many days, and no small tempest pressing hard, now all hope that we would be saved was taken away.
