ثُمَّ أَقْلَعْنَا مِنْ هُنَاكَ وَسَافَرْنَا فِي الْبَحْرِ مِنْ تَحْتِ قُبْرُسَ، لأَنَّ الرِّيَاحَ كَانَتْ مُضَادَّةً.And when we had launched from thence, we sailed under Cyprus, because the winds were contrary.Acts 27:4, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
فَأَنَا ارْتَأَيْتُ فِي نَفْسِي أَنَّهُ يَنْبَغِي أَنْ أَصْنَعَ أُمُورًا كَثِيرَةً مُضَادَّةً لاسْمِ يَسُوعَ النَّاصِرِيِّ.I verily thought with myself, that I ought to do many things contrary to the name of Jesus of Nazareth.Acts 26:9, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
