Acts 27:33-44
33And while the dayG2250 was comingG1096 on, PaulG3972 besought them all to take some foodG5160, sayingG3004, This dayG2250 is the fourteenth dayG2250 that ye wait and continue fasting, having taken nothingG3367. 34Wherefore I beseech you to take some foodG5160: for this is for your safety: for there shall not a hairG2359 perishG622 from the headG2776 of any of you. 35And when he had saidG3004 this, and had takenG2983 breadG740, he gaveG2168 thanksG2168 to GodG2316 in the presenceG1799 of all; and he brake it, and beganG757 to eatG2068. 36Then were they all of good cheer, and themselves alsoG2532 took foodG5160. 37And we wereG1510 in all in the shipG4143 twoG1250 hundredG1250 threescore and sixteen soulsG5590. 38And when they had eaten enough, they lightened the shipG4143, throwing out the wheatG4621 into the seaG2281. 39And whenG3753 it was dayG2250, they knewG1921 not the landG1093: but they perceived a certainG5100 bay with a beach, and they took counsel whether they could drive the shipG4143 upon it. 40And casting off the anchorsG45, they left them in the seaG2281, at the sameG260 timeG260 loosing the bands of the rudders; and hoisting up the foresail to the wind, they made for the beach. 41But lighting upon a placeG5117 where two seas met, they ran the vessel aground; and the foreship struck and remainedG3306 unmoveable, but the sternG4403 began to breakG3089 up by the violenceG970 of the waves. 42And the soldiers’G4757 counselG1012 was to killG615 the prisonersG1202, lestG3361 any of them should swim out, and escape. 43But the centurionG1543, desiring to saveG1295 PaulG3972, stayed them from their purpose; and commandedG2753 that they who could swim should cast themselves overboard, and get firstG4413 to the landG1093; 44and the restG3062, some on planks, and some on otherG3062 thingsG3956 from the shipG4143. And so it cameG1096 to passG1096, that they all escaped safe to the landG1093.
