Acts
Acts 28:11–13
11After three months we set sail in an Alexandrian ship that had wintered in the island. It had the Twin Brothersb as a figurehead. 12Putting in at Syracuse, we stayed there three days. 13From there we weighed anchor and came to Rhegium. After one day, a south wind came up, and on the second day we arrived at Puteoli.
