Acts of the Apostles
The Acts of our fathers the apostles, may their blessings be with us.
Acts 27 : 9 - 12
Chapter 27
| 9 | Now when much time had been spent, and sailing was now dangerous because the Fast was already over, Paul advised them,
|
| 10 | saying, "Men, I perceive that this voyage will end with disaster and much loss, not only of the cargo and ship, but also our lives."
|
| 11 | Nevertheless the centurion was more persuaded by the helmsman and the owner of the ship than by the things spoken by Paul.
|
| 12 | And because the harbor was not suitable to winter in, the majority advised to set sail from there also, if by any means they could reach Phoenix, a harbor of Crete opening toward the southwest and northwest, and winter there.
|
The word of the Lord shall grow, multiply, be mighty, and be confirmed, in the holy Church of God.
Amen.
