And they said to him, “We (hēmeis | ἡμεῖς | nom pl 1st) have received no letters from Judea about you, nor have any of the brothers come from there and reported or spoken any bad about you.

And the brothers there, when they heard about us (hēmōn | ἡμῶν | gen pl 1st), came as far as the Forum of Appius and Three Taverns to meet us (hēmin | ἡμῖν | dat pl 1st). On seeing them, Paul gave thanks to God and took courage.

They also honored us (hēmas | ἡμᾶς | acc pl 1st) with many honors, and when we were getting ready to sail, they put on board whatever we needed.

Now in the region around that place were fields belonging to the leading man of the island, by name Publius, who welcomed us (hēmas | ἡμᾶς | acc pl 1st) and for three days entertained us hospitably.

The native people showed us (hēmin | ἡμῖν | dat pl 1st) no ordinary kindness, for they kindled a fire and welcomed us (hēmas | ἡμᾶς | acc pl 1st) all, because it had begun to rain and because of the cold.

And when it was the fourteenth night, as we (hēmōn | ἡμῶν | gen pl 1st) were being driven about in the Adriatic Sea, about midnight the sailors suspected that they were nearing land.

But we (hēmas | ἡμᾶς | acc pl 1st) must run aground on some island.”

When neither sun nor stars appeared for many days, and no small storm continued to rage, all hope of our (hēmas | ἡμᾶς | acc pl 1st) being saved was at last abandoned.

Since we (hēmōn | ἡμῶν | gen pl 1st) were being pounded so violently by the storm, the next day they began to throw cargo overboard;

saying, “Gentlemen, I perceive that the voyage that is about to take place will involve injury and much loss, not only of the cargo and the ship, but also of our (hēmōn | ἡμῶν | gen pl 1st) lives.”
