31 Paul said to the centurion and the soldiers, “Unless these men stay in the ship, you cannot be saved.”
32 Then the soldiers cut the ropes holding the skiff and let it drop away.
33 When it was about daylight, Paul urged them all to take food, saying, “Today is the fourteenth day that you have been waiting and going without food, having eaten nothing.
34 Therefore I urge you to take some food. For this has to do with your survival, since none of you will lose a hair from your head.”
35 After he said these things and had taken some bread, he gave thanks to God in the presence of all of them, and when he broke it, he began to eat.
36 They all became encouraged and took food themselves.
37 In all there were 276 of us on the ship.
