Acts 27:14–18 · Berean Standard Bible
14 But it was not long before a cyclone called the Northeaster swept down across the island.
15 Unable to head into the wind, the ship was caught up. So we gave way and let ourselves be driven along.
16 Passing to the lee of a small island called Cauda, we barely managed to secure the lifeboat.
17 After hoisting it up, the crew used ropes to undergird the ship. And fearing that they would run aground on the sandbars of Syrtis, they lowered the sea anchor and were driven along.
18 We were tossed so violently that the next day the men began to jettison the cargo.
