Acts 27:21 But after long abstinence Paul stood forth in the midst of them, and said, Sirs, ye should have hearkened unto me, and not have loosed from Crete, and to have gained this harm and loss. MC VC

Acts 27:22 And now I exhort you to be of good cheer: for there shall be no loss of any man’s life among you, but of the ship. 2 I MC VC

Acts 27:23 For there stood by me this night the angel of God, whose I am, and whom I serve, MC VC

Acts 27:24 Saying, Fear not, Paul; thou must be brought before Caesar: and, lo, God hath given thee all them that sail with thee. MC VC

Acts 27:25 Wherefore, sirs, be of good cheer: for I believe God, that it shall be even as it was told me. 2 I MC VC

Acts 27:26 Howbeit we must be cast upon a certain island. MC VC

Acts 27:27 But when the fourteenth night was come, as we were driven up and down in Adria, about midnight the shipmen deemed that they drew near to some country; MC VC

Acts 27:28 And sounded, and found it twenty fathoms: and when they had gone a little further, they sounded again, and found it fifteen fathoms. MC VC

Acts 27:29 Then fearing lest we should have fallen upon rocks, they cast four anchors out of the stern, and wished for the day. MC VC

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, MC VC

Acts 27:31 Paul said to the centurion and to the soldiers, Except these abide in the ship, ye cannot be saved. MC VC

Acts 27:32 Then the soldiers cut off the ropes of the boat, and let her fall off. MC VC

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. MC VC

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. MC VC

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. MC VC

Acts 27:36 Then were they all of good cheer, and they also took some meat. MC VC

Acts 27:37 And we were in all in the ship two hundred threescore and sixteen souls. MC VC

Acts 27:38 And when they had eaten enough, they lightened the ship, and cast out the wheat into the sea. MC VC

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. MC VC

Acts 27:40 And when they had taken up the anchors, they committed themselves unto the sea, and loosed the rudder bands, and hoised up the mainsail to the wind, and made toward shore. MC VC

Acts 27:41 And falling into a place where two seas met, they ran the ship aground; and the forepart stuck fast, and remained unmoveable, but the hinder part was broken with the violence of the waves. MC VC

Acts 27:42 And the soldiers’ counsel was to kill the prisoners, lest any of them should swim out, and escape. MC VC

Acts 27:43 But the centurion, willing to save Paul, kept them from their purpose; and commanded that they which could swim should cast themselves first into the sea, and get to land: MC VC

Acts 27:44 And the rest, some on boards, and some on broken pieces of the ship. And so it came to pass, that they escaped all safe to land. MC VC
