in my prayers at all times; and I pray that now at last by God’s will the way may be opened for me to come to you.

in my prayers. I pray that now at last it may be God’s plan to open the way for me to visit you.

One of the things I always pray for is the opportunity, God willing, to come at last to see you.

always asking in my prayers that if it is somehow in God’s will, I may now at last succeed in coming to you.

always in my prayers requesting if perhaps now, at last by the will of God, I will succeed in coming to you.

making request if, by some means, now at last I may find a way in the will of God to come to you.

making request, if by any means now at length I may be prospered by the will of God to come unto you.

Making request, if by any means now at length I might have a prosperous journey by the will of God to come unto you.

and I always ask in my prayers, if perhaps now at last I may succeed in visiting you according to the will of God.

I appeal to you, brothers, by our Lord Jesus Christ and by the love of the Spirit, to strive together with me in your prayers to God on my behalf,that I may be delivered from the unbelievers in Judea, and that my service for Jerusalem may be acceptable to the saints,so that by God’s will I may come to you with joy and be refreshed in your company.

But on taking leave of them he said,“ I will return to you if God wills,” and he set sail from Ephesus.

At the same time, prepare a guest room for me, for I am hoping that through your prayers I will be graciously given to you.

Instead you ought to say,“ If the Lord wills, we will live and do this or that.”

Now after these events Paul resolved in the Spirit to pass through Macedonia and Achaia and go to Jerusalem, saying,“ After I have been there, I must also see Rome.”

I urge you the more earnestly to do this in order that I may be restored to you the sooner.

as we pray most earnestly night and day that we may see you face to face and supply what is lacking in your faith?Now may our God and Father himself, and our Lord Jesus, direct our way to you,

because we wanted to come to you— I, Paul, again and again— but Satan hindered us.

This is the reason why I have so often been hindered from coming to you.But now, since I no longer have any room for work in these regions, and since I have longed for many years to come to you,I hope to see you in passing as I go to Spain, and to be helped on my journey there by you, once I have enjoyed your company for a while.

But I will come to you soon, if the Lord wills, and I will find out not the talk of these arrogant people but their power.

And since he would not be persuaded, we ceased and said,“ Let the will of the Lord be done.”

do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.

And when it was decided that we should sail for Italy, they delivered Paul and some other prisoners to a centurion of the Augustan Cohort named Julius.And embarking in a ship of Adramyttium, which was about to sail to the ports along the coast of Asia, we put to sea, accompanied by Aristarchus, a Macedonian from Thessalonica.The next day we put in at Sidon. And Julius treated Paul kindly and gave him leave to go to his friends and be cared for.And putting out to sea from there we sailed under the lee of Cyprus, because the winds were against us.And when we had sailed across the open sea along the coast of Cilicia and Pamphylia, we came to Myra in Lycia.There the centurion found a ship of Alexandria sailing for Italy and put us on board.We sailed slowly for a number of days and arrived with difficulty off Cnidus, and as the wind did not allow us to go farther, we sailed under the lee of Crete off Salmone.Coasting along it with difficulty, we came to a place called Fair Havens, near which was the city of Lasea.Since much time had passed, and the voyage was now dangerous because even the Fast was already over, Paul advised them,saying,“ Sirs, I perceive that the voyage will be with injury and much loss, not only of the cargo and the ship, but also of our lives.”But the centurion paid more attention to the pilot and to the owner of the ship than to what Paul said.And because the harbor was not suitable to spend the winter in, the majority decided to put out to sea from there, on the chance that somehow they could reach Phoenix, a harbor of Crete, facing both southwest and northwest, and spend the winter there.Now when the south wind blew gently, supposing that they had obtained their purpose, they weighed anchor and sailed along Crete, close to the shore.But soon a tempestuous wind, called the northeaster, struck down from the land.And when the ship was caught and could not face the wind, we gave way to it and were driven along.Running under the lee of a small island called Cauda, we managed with difficulty to secure the ship’s boat.After hoisting it up, they used supports to undergird the ship. Then, fearing that they would run aground on the Syrtis, they lowered the gear, and thus they were driven along.Since we were violently storm-tossed, they began the next day to jettison the cargo.And on the third day they threw the ship’s tackle overboard with their own hands.When neither sun nor stars appeared for many days, and no small tempest lay on us, all hope of our being saved was at last abandoned.Since they had been without food for a long time, Paul stood up among them and said,“ Men, you should have listened to me and not have set sail from Crete and incurred this injury and loss.Yet now I urge you to take heart, for there will be no loss of life among you, but only of the ship.For this very night there stood before me an angel of the God to whom I belong and whom I worship,and he said,‘ Do not be afraid, Paul; you must stand before Caesar. And behold, God has granted you all those who sail with you.’So take heart, men, for I have faith in God that it will be exactly as I have been told.But we must run aground on some island.”When the fourteenth night had come, as we were being driven across the Adriatic Sea, about midnight the sailors suspected that they were nearing land.So they took a sounding and found twenty fathoms. A little farther on they took a sounding again and found fifteen fathoms.
