Deeds (Act) of Apostles 27:28-36

²⁸And they cast or sent down a plummet, and found twenty fathoms of deepness. And after a little they were departed from thence, and found fifteen fathoms.

²⁹And they dreaded, lest we should have fallen into sharp places; and from the last part of the ship they sent four anchors, and desired that the day had become or were made.

³⁰And when the shipmen sought to flee from the ship, when they had sent a little boat into the sea, under colour as they should begin to stretch forth the anchors from the former part of the ship,

³¹Paul said to the centurion and to the knights, But these dwell in the ship, ye may not be made safe.

³²Then the knights cutted away the cords of the little boat, and suffered it to fall away.

³³And when the day was come, Paul prayed all men to take meat, and said, The fourteenth day this day ye abide, and dwell fasting, and take nothing.

³⁴Wherefore I pray you to take meat, for your health; for of none of you the hair of the head shall perish.

³⁵And when he had said these things, Paul took bread, and did thankings to God in the sight of all men; and when he had broken, he began to eat.

³⁶And all were made of better comfort, or made more patient, or hardy, and they took meat.
