1 It was decided that we would sail for Italy. Paul and some other prisoners were handed over to a Roman commander named Julius. He belonged to the Imperial Guard.
2 We boarded a ship from Adramyttium. It was about to sail for ports along the coast of Asia Minor. We headed out to sea. Aristarchus was with us. He was a Macedonian from Thessalonica.
3 The next day we landed at Sidon. There Julius was kind to Paul. He let Paul visit his friends so they could give him what he needed.
4 From there we headed out to sea again. We passed the calmer side of Cyprus because the winds were against us.
5 We sailed across the open sea off the coast of Cilicia and Pamphylia. Then we landed at Myra in Lycia.
