Paul Arrives in Rome

11 After three months, we set sail in an Alexandrian ship that had wintered at the island and that had the twin sons of Zeus as its figurehead. 12 Putting in at Syracuse, we stayed there for three days. 13 From there we [fn]took a circuitous course and arrived at Rhegium. After one day a south wind sprang up, and on the second day we came to Puteoli. 14 There we found some brothers and were invited to stay with them for seven days. And so we came to Rome. 15 When the brothers from Rome heard the news about us, they came [fn]out as far as the Forum of Appius and the Three Taverns to meet us. When Paul saw them, he gave thanks to God and took courage.

16 When we came into Rome, [fn]the centurion transferred the prisoners to the captain of the guard, but Paul was allowed to stay by himself, with the soldier who was guarding him.
