30Then the sailors made attempts secretly to get away from the ship, letting down a boat as if they were about to put down hooks from the front of the ship;
31But Paul said to the captain and his men, If you do not keep these men in the ship, you will not be safe.
32Then the armed men, cutting the cords of the boat, let her go.
33And when dawn was near, Paul gave them all orders to take food, saying, This is the fourteenth day you have been waiting and taking no food.
34So I make request to you to take food; for this is for your salvation: not a hair from the head of any of you will come to destruction.
35And when he had said this and had taken bread, he gave praise to God before them all, and took a meal of the broken bread.
