Acts 27:15-18

The Storm at Sea

¹⁵ And when the ship was caught and could not face the wind, we gave way to it and were driven along. ¹⁶ Running under the lee of a small island called Cauda, ₁ we managed with difficulty to secure the ship's boat. ¹⁷ After hoisting it up, they used supports to undergird the ship. Then, fearing that they would _m run aground on the Syrtis, they lowered the gear, ₂ and thus they were driven along. ¹⁸ Since we were violently storm-tossed, they began the next day _n to jettison the cargo.
