<A name="29"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/acts/27-28.htm"><b>28</b></a></span>and, sounding, they found twenty fathoms; and, going a little further, and again sounding, they found fifteen fathoms. <A name="30"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/acts/27-29.htm"><b>29</b></a></span>And, fearing lest perhaps we might wreck against rocky places, having cast four anchors out of the stern, they were praying that day would come. <A name="31"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/acts/27-30.htm"><b>30</b></a></span>And, when the sailors were seeking to escape out of the ship, and had lowered the boat into the sea, by pretext, as though they were about to cast anchors out of the prow, <A name="32"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/acts/27-31.htm"><b>31</b></a></span>Paul said to the centurion and to the soldiers, "Except these abide in the ship, ye cannot be saved." <A name="33"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/acts/27-32.htm"><b>32</b></a></span>Then the soldiers cut off the ropes of the boat, and suffered it to fall off.<p> <A name="34"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/acts/27-33.htm"><b>33</b></a></span>And, when the day was about to dawn, Paul was beseeching them all to take food, saying, "To-day <i>is</i> the fourteenth day ye, waiting, continue fasting, having taken nothing;

and, breaking <i>it</i>, he began to eat. <A name="37"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/acts/27-36.htm"><b>36</b></a></span>And, all having become of good cheer, they themselves also partook of food. <A name="38"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/acts/27-37.htm"><b>37</b></a></span>And we were in all in the ship two hundred and seventy-six souls. <A name="39"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/acts/27-38.htm"><b>38</b></a></span>And, having been satisfied with food, they were lightening the ship, throwing out the wheat into the sea.<p> <A name="40"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/acts/27-39.htm"><b>39</b></a></span>And, when it was day, they were not recognizing the land; but they were observing a certain bay, having a beach, into which they purposed, if they might be able, to thrust the ship. <A name="41"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/acts/27-40.htm"><b>40</b></a></span>And, casting off the anchors, they let <i>them</i> go into the sea; at the same time loosing the bands of the rudders, and hoisting the fore-sail to the breeze, they were holding <i>their course</i> towards the beach. <A name="42"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/acts/27-41.htm"><b>41</b></a></span>But, falling into a place where two seas met, they ran the ship aground; and the prow, sticking fast, remained immovable, but the stern was being broken to pieces by the violence <i>of the waves</i>. <A name="43"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/acts/27-42.htm"><b>42</b></a></span>Now it was the plan of the soldiers to kill the prisoners, lest any one, swimming out, might escape. <A name="44"></a><span class="reftext"><a href="/acts/27-43.htm"><b>43</b></a></span>But the centurion, wishing to save Paul, kept them from their purpose;
