Acts 27:41-44

41But striking a place where two seas met, they ran the ship aground; and the prow stuck fast and remained immovable, but the stern was being broken up by the violence of the waves.

42And the soldiers’ plan was to kill the prisoners, lest any of them should swim away and escape.

43But the centurion, wanting to save Paul, kept them from their purpose, and commanded that those who could swim should jump overboard first and get to land,

44and the rest, some on boards and some on parts of the ship. And so it was that they all escaped safely to land.
