Acts 27:35-41

³⁵And having said these things and having taken bread, he gave thanks to God in the presence of all, and having broken it, he began to eat.

³⁶And they all became cheerful and also took food themselves.

³⁷And in all we were two hundred and seventy-six persons on the ship.

³⁸And having eaten enough, they began lightening the ship and throwing out the wheat into the sea.

³⁹Now when it became day, they did not recognize the land; but they noticed a certain bay which had a beach, on which they resolved, if possible, to run the ship ashore.

⁴⁰And casting off the anchors, they were leaving them in the sea, meanwhile loosening the ropes of the rudders; and having raised the mainsail to the wind, they began steering toward the beach.

⁴¹But they struck a reef and ran the vessel aground, and the prow became stuck and remained unmoved, but the stern was being broken up by the violence of the waves.
