Acts 27:40 DBY

³⁸  And having satisfied themselves with food, they lightened the ship, casting out the wheat into the sea.

³⁹  And when it was day they did not recognise the land; but they perceived a certain bay having a strand, on which they were minded, if they should be able, to run the ship ashore;

⁴⁰  and, having cast off the anchors, they left [them] in the sea, at the same time loosening the lashings of the rudders, and hoisting the foresail to the wind, they made for the strand.

⁴¹  And falling into a place where two seas met they ran the ship aground, and the prow having stuck itself fast remained unmoved, but the stern was broken by the force of the waves.

⁴²  And [the] counsel of the soldiers was that they should kill the prisoners, lest any one should swim off and escape.
