1. It was decided that we would sail for Italy. Paul and some other prisoners were handed over to a Roman commander named Julius. He belonged to the Imperial Guard.
2. We boarded a ship from Adramyttium. It was about to sail for ports along the coast of Asia Minor. We headed out to sea. Aristarchus was with us. He was a Macedonian from Thessalonica.
3. The next day we landed at Sidon. There Julius was kind to Paul. He let Paul visit his friends so they could give him what he needed.
4. From there we headed out to sea again. We passed the calmer side of Cyprus because the winds were against us.
