Acts 27:41-44

41But striking a reef, they ran the vessel aground. The bow stuck and remained immovable, and the stern was being broken up by the surf.

42The soldiers' plan was to kill the prisoners, lest any should swim away and escape.

43But the centurion, wishing to save Paul, kept them from carrying out their plan. He ordered those who could swim to jump overboard first and make for the land,

44and the rest on planks or on pieces of the ship. And so it was that all were brought safely to land.
