16 And running under a certain island which is called Clauda, we had much work to come by the boat,
17 Which when they had taken up, they used helps, undergirding the ship; and, fearing lest they should fall into Syrtis, {or the sandbanks}, struck sail and so were driven.
18 And we being exceedingly tossed with a tempest, the next day they lightened the ship;
19 and the third day with our own hands we cast off the dead works of the ship.
20 And when neither sun nor stars in many days appeared and no small tempest lay on us, all hope that we should be saved was then lost.
21 Then after long abstinence, Paul stood forth in the midst of them and said, Sirs, ye should have hearkened unto me and not have loosed from Crete to have avoided this harm and loss.
22 And now I exhort you to be of good cheer, for there shall be no loss of any person’s life among you, but only of the ship.
