33 As day was about to dawn, Paul asked them all to eat, saying, “Today is the fourteenth day that you have waited and continued without food, having eaten nothing.
34 So I urge you to eat. This is for your preservation, for not a hair shall fall from your head.”
35 When he had said this, he took some bread and gave thanks to God in the presence of them all. And when he had broken it he began to eat.
36 Then they were all encouraged, and they also ate food themselves.
37 In all we were two hundred and seventy-six persons on the ship.
38 When they had eaten enough, they lightened the ship and threw the wheat into the sea.
39 When it was day, they did not recognize the land. But they noticed a bay with a shore, into which they were determined to run the ship if possible.
