Acts 27:10-12

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹⁰ “Men, we’re going to face a disaster and heavy losses on this voyage. This disaster will cause damage to the cargo and the ship, and it will affect our lives.” ¹¹ However, the officer was persuaded by what the pilot and the owner of the ship said and not by what Paul said. ¹² Since the harbor was not a good place to spend the winter, most of the men decided to sail from there. They hoped to reach the city of Phoenix somehow and spend the winter there. (Phoenix is a harbor that faces the southwest and northwest winds and is located on the island of Crete.)
