Acts 28:13-15
New Catholic Bible
13 Then we sailed along the coast and came to Rhegium.[a] After one day there, a south wind came up, and we reached Puteoli in two days.
14 In Puteoli, we found some brethren, and we were invited to stay with them for seven days. And so we came to Rome. 15 When the brethren there learned of our arrival, they came out to meet us as far as the Forum of Appius[b] and the Three Taverns. On seeing them, Paul gave thanks to God, and his courage was strengthened.
