41 But lighting upon a place where two seas met, they ran the vessel aground; and the foreship struck and remained unmoveable, but the stern began to break up by the violence `of the waves'.
42 And the soldiers' counsel was to kill the prisoners, lest any `of them' should swim out, and escape.
43 But the centurion, desiring to save Paul, stayed them from their purpose; and commanded that they who could swim should cast themselves overboard, and get first to the land;
44 and the rest, some on planks, and some on `other' things from the ship. And so it came to pass, that they all escaped safe to the land.
