| The Acts | 27 | (30) And as the shipmen were about to flee out of the ship, when they had let down the boat into the sea, under colour as though they would have cast anchors out of the foreship, | |
| The Acts | 27 | (31) Paul said to the centurion and to the soldiers, Except these abide in the ship, ye cannot be saved. | |

| The Acts | 27 | (33) And while the day was coming on, Paul besought them all to take meat, saying, This day is the fourteenth day that ye have tarried and continued fasting, having taken nothing. | |
| The Acts | 27 | (34) Wherefore I pray you to take some meat: for this is for your health: for there shall not an hair fall from the head of any of you. | |
| The Acts | 27 | (35) And when he had thus spoken, he took bread, and gave thanks to God in presence of them all: and when he had broken it, he began to eat. | |

| The Acts | 27 | (39) And when it was day, they knew not the land: but they discovered a certain creek with a shore, into the which they were minded, if it were possible, to thrust in the ship. | |
