and neither sun nor stars appearing for many days, and there being no small tempest on us, finally all hope of saving us was taken away. And there being much fasting, Paul standing in their midst, said, O men, truly it behooved you obeying me, not to depart from Crete, and incur this injury and loss. And now I exhort you to take courage: for there will be no loss of the life of you, except the ship. For the angel of God, whose I am, and whom indeed I serve, stood by me this night, saying, Fear not, Paul; for it behooveth thee to stand before Caesar: and, behold, God has given thee all those sailing along with thee.

Therefore I exhort you to take food: for this is for your safety: for not a hair of your head shall perish. And having spoken these words, and taken bread, he gave thanks to God in the presence of all, and breaking it, began to eat. And all becoming cheerful, themselves also took food. And we were two hundred and seventy-six souls in the ship. And having been revived by the food, they lightened the ship, casting the wheat over into the sea. And when it was day, they did not recognize the land: but discovered a certain gulf having a shore, into which they determined, if possible, to thrust out the ship.
