“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 taken away.”
King James Version (KJV)
27:20 Neither sun nor stars appeared for many days - Which they could the less spare, before the compass was found out.
Ac 27:20 Neither sun nor stars in many days appeared. Hence they could neither tell where they were nor direct their course. No such thing as the compass was then known. All hope . . . was then taken away. All hope of saving the ship or cargo was gone, and the mariners despaired of their own safety.
And 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.
