29Fearing that we would run aground on rocky ground, they let go four anchors from the stern, and wished for daylight.
30As the sailors were trying to flee out of the ship, and had lowered the boat into the sea, pretending that they would lay out anchors from the bow,
31Paul said to the centurion and to the soldiers, "Unless these stay in the ship, you can`t be saved."
32Then the soldiers cut away the ropes of the boat, and let her fall off.
33While the day was coming on, Paul begged them all to take some food, saying, "This day is the fourteenth day that you wait and continue fasting, having taken nothing.
34Therefore I beg you to take some food, for this is for your safety; for there will not a hair perish from the head of any of you."
35When he had said this, and had taken bread, he gave thanks to God in the presence of all, and he broke it, and began to eat.
