Acts 27:15-20

Murdock(i) 15 And the ship was whirled about by the wind, and could not keep head to it; and we resigned the ship to its power. 16 And when we had passed a certain island, called Cyra, we could hardly retain the boat. 17 And after hoisting it on board, we girded the ship around the waist, and made it strong. And, because we were afraid of falling upon a precipice of the sea, we pulled own the sail; and so we drifted. 18 And as the storm raged violently upon us, we the next day threw goods into the sea. 19 And on the third day, with our own hands, we threw away the tackling of the ship. 20 And as the storm held on for many days, and as no sun was visible, nor moon, nor stars, all hope of our surviving was wholly cut off.
