Acts 27:8 in Context — Acts 27

6 Et là, le centenier, ayant trouvé un navire d’Alexandrie qui allait en Italie, nous y fit monter.

7 Pendant plusieurs jours nous naviguâmes lentement, et ce ne fut pas sans difficulté que nous atteignîmes la hauteur de Cnide, où le vent ne nous permit pas d’aborder. Nous passâmes au-dessous de l’île de Crète, du côté de Salmone.

8 Nous la côtoyâmes avec peine, et nous arrivâmes à un lieu nommé Beaux Ports, près duquel était la ville de Lasée.

9 Un temps assez long s’était écoulé, et la navigation devenait dangereuse, car l’époque même du jeûne était déjà passée.
