Acts 27:44 WBT

⁴²  And the soldiers' counsel was to kill the prisoners, lest any of them should swim out, and escape.

⁴³  But the centurion, willing to save Paul, kept them from [their] purpose, and commanded that they who could swim, should cast [themselves] first [into the sea], and get to land:

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