27But when the fourteenth night was come, as we were driven to and fro in the [sea of] Adria, about midnight the sailors surmised that they were drawing near to some country:

28and they sounded, and found twenty fathoms; and after a little space, they sounded again, and found fifteen fathoms.

29And fearing lest haply we should be cast ashore on rocky ground, they let go four anchors from the stern, and wished for the day.

30And as the sailors were seeking to flee out of the ship, and had lowered the boat into the sea, under color as though they would lay out anchors from the foreship,

31Paul said to the centurion and to the soldiers, Except these abide in the ship, ye cannot be saved.

32Then the soldiers cut away the ropes of the boat, and let her fall off.

33And while the day was coming on, Paul besought them all to take some food, saying, This day is the fourteenth day that ye wait and continue fasting, having taken nothing.
