Acts 27:12 - King James Bible with Strong NumbersG1161 And G5225 because G3040 the haven G5225 was [G5723] G428 not commodious G4314 to G3915 winter in G4119 , the more part G1012 advised G5087 [G5639] G321 to depart [G5683] G2547 thence also G1513 , if G4458 by any means G1410 they might [G5739] G2658 attain [G5660] G1519 to G5405 Phenice G3914 , and there to winter [G5658] G3040 ; which is an haven G2914 of Crete G991 , and lieth [G5723] G2596 toward G3047 the south west G2532 and G2596 G5566 north west. See the chapterMore versionsKing James Version (Oxford) 1769And because the haven was not commodious to winter in, the more part advised to depart thence also, if by any means they might attain to Phenice, and there to winter; which is an haven of Crete, and lieth toward the south west and north west. See the chapterAmplified Bible - Classic EditionAnd as the harbor was not well situated and so unsuitable to winter in, the majority favored the plan of putting to sea again from there, hoping somehow to reach Phoenice, a harbor of Crete facing southwest and northwest, and winter there. See the chapterAmerican Standard Version (1901)And because the haven was not commodious to winter in, the more part advised to put to sea from thence, if by any means they could reach Phoenix, and winter there; which is a haven of Crete, looking north-east and south-east. See the chapterCommon English BibleSince the harbor was unsuitable for spending the winter, the majority supported a plan to put out to sea from there. They thought they might reach Phoenix in Crete and spend the winter in its harbor, which faced southwest and northwest. See the chapterCatholic Public Domain VersionAnd since it was not a fitting port in which to winter, the majority opinion was to sail from there, so that somehow they might be able to arrive at Phoenicia, in order to winter there, at a port of Crete, which looks out toward the southwest and northwest.
