Acts 27:1

But when I found that he had committed nothing worthy of death, and that he himself hath appealed to Augustus, I have determined to send him.

There was a certain man in Caesarea called Cornelius, a centurion of the band called the Italian band,

Then Festus, when he had conferred with the council, answered, Hast thou appealed unto Caesar? unto Caesar shalt thou go.

Nevertheless the centurion believed the master and the owner of the ship, more than those things which were spoken by Paul.

And found a certain Jew named Aquila, born in Pontus, lately come from Italy, with his wife Priscilla; (because that Claudius had commanded all Jews to depart from Rome:) and came unto them.

Salute all them that have the rule over you, and all the saints. They of Italy salute you.

And after he had seen the vision, immediately we endeavoured to go into Macedonia, assuredly gathering that the Lord had called us for to preach the gospel unto them.

But the centurion, willing to save Paul, kept them from their purpose; and commanded that they which could swim should cast themselves first into the sea, and get to land:

And all the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing: and he doeth according to his will in the army of heaven, and among the inhabitants of the earth: and none can stay his hand, or say unto him, What doest thou?

After these things were ended, Paul purposed in the spirit, when he had passed through Macedonia and Achaia, to go to Jerusalem, saying, After I have been there, I must also see Rome.

It is good for a man that he bear the yoke in his youth.

When the centurion heard that, he went and told the chief captain, saying, Take heed what thou doest: for this man is a Roman.

Surely the wrath of man shall praise thee: the remainder of wrath shalt thou restrain.

And when we came to Rome, the centurion delivered the prisoners to the captain of the guard: but Paul was suffered to dwell by himself with a soldier that kept him.

And there the centurion found a ship of Alexandria sailing into Italy; and he put us therein.

There are many devices in a man’s heart; nevertheless the counsel of the LORD, that shall stand.

Then Paul called one of the centurions unto him, and said, Bring this young man unto the chief captain: for he hath a certain thing to tell him.

Now when the centurion saw what was done, he glorified God, saying, Certainly this was a righteous man.

And the night following the Lord stood by him, and said, Be of good cheer, Paul: for as thou hast testified of me in Jerusalem, so must thou bear witness also at Rome.

Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching Jesus, saw the earthquake, and those things that were done, they feared greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God.
