Acts 27:20 Context
18And being exceedingly tossed with a tempest the next day, they lightened the ship: 19And the third day we cast out with our owne handes the tackling of the shippe. 20And when neither Sunne nor starres in many dayes appeared, and no small tempest lay on vs; all hope that wee should be saued, was then taken away. 21But after long abstinence, Paul stood foorth in the middes of them, and said, Sirs, yee should haue hearkened vnto mee, and not haue loosed from Creete, and to haue gained this harme and losse. 22And now I exhort you to be of good cheere: for there shall be no losse of any mans life among you, but of the shippe.
