3. The next day we came to the city of Sidon. Julius was very good to Paul and gave him freedom to go visit his friends there, who gave him whatever he needed.
4. We left that city and sailed close to the island of Cyprus because the wind was blowing against us.
5. We went across the sea by Cilicia and Pamphylia. Then we came to the city of Myra in Lycia.
6. There the army officer found a ship from the city of Alexandria that was going to Italy. So he put us on it.
7. We sailed slowly for many days. It was hard for us to reach the city of Cnidus because the wind was blowing against us. We could not go any farther that way, so we sailed by the south side of the island of Crete near Salmone.
