Paul Arrives in Rome at Last

11 Now after three months we put out to sea in a ship that had wintered at the island, an Alexandrian one ⌊with the twin gods Castor and Pollux as its insignia⌋.[fn] 12 And putting in at Syracuse, we stayed there three days. 13 From there we got underway[fn] and[fn] arrived at Rhegium, and after one day a south wind came up and[fn] on the second day we came to Puteoli, 14 where we found brothers, and[fn] were implored to stay with them seven days. And in this way we came to Rome. 15 And from there the brothers, when they[fn] heard the news about us, came to meet us as far as the Forum of Appius and Three Taverns. When he[fn] saw them, Paul gave thanks to God and[fn] took courage. 16 And when we entered into Rome, Paul was allowed to stay by himself with the soldier who was guarding him.
