Acts 27:21-32

21And when they had been a long while without taking food, PaulG3972 then standingG2476 up in the midstG3319 of them saidG3004, Ye oughtG1163, O menG435, to have hearkened to me, and not have made sailG321 from CreteG2914 and have gainedG2770 this disasterG5196 and lossG2209.

22And nowG3568 I exhort you to beG1510 of good courageG2114, for there shall beG1510 no loss at all of lifeG5590 of [any] of you, only of the shipG4143.

23For an angelG32 of the 1GodG2316, whose I amG1510 and whom I serveG3000, stoodG3936 by me this nightG3571,

24sayingG3004, FearG5399 not, PaulG3972; thou must standG3936 before CaesarG2541; and beholdG2400, 2GodG2316 has grantedG5483 to thee all those that sailG4126 with thee.

25Wherefore beG1510 of good courageG2114, menG435, for I believeG4100 3GodG2316 that thusG3779 it shall beG1510, as it has beenG1510 saidG2980 to me.

26But we must be cast ashore on a certainG5100 islandG3520.

27And whenG5613 the fourteenth nightG3571 was comeG1096, we being driven about in Adria, towards the middleG3319 of the nightG3571 the sailorsG3492 supposed that some landG5561 neared them,

28and having sounded foundG2147 twentyG1501 fathomsG3712, and having gone a littleG1024 farther and having againG3825 sounded they foundG2147 fifteenG1178 fathomsG3712;

29and fearingG5399 lestG3361 we should be castG4496 on rocky placesG5117, casting fourG5064 anchorsG45 out of the sternG4403, they wished that dayG2250 were comeG1096.

30But the sailorsG3492 wishing to fleeG5343 out of the shipG4143, and having let down the boatG4143 into the seaG2281 under pretextG4392 of being about to carry out anchorsG45 from the prow,

31PaulG3972 saidG3004 to the centurionG1543 and the soldiersG4757, Unless these abideG3306 in the shipG4143 ye cannot be savedG4982.

32Then the soldiersG4757 cutG609 away the ropes of the boat and let her fall.
