Acts 27:30-36
English Standard Version
30 And as the sailors were seeking to escape from the ship, and had lowered (A)the ship's boat into the sea under pretense of laying out anchors from the bow, 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 away the ropes of the ship's boat and let it go.
33 As day was about to dawn, Paul urged them all to take some food, saying, “Today is the fourteenth day that you have continued in suspense and without food, having taken nothing. 34 Therefore I urge you to take some food. For it will give you strength,[a] for (B)not a hair is to perish from the head of any of you.” 35 And when he had said these things, he took bread, and (C)giving thanks to God in the presence of all he broke it and began to eat. 36 Then they all (D)were encouraged and ate some food themselves.

Acts 27:30-36
New International Version
30 In an attempt to escape from the ship, the sailors let the lifeboat(A) down into the sea, pretending they were going to lower some anchors from the bow. 31 Then Paul said to the centurion and the soldiers, “Unless these men stay with the ship, you cannot be saved.”(B) 32 So the soldiers cut the ropes that held the lifeboat and let it drift away.
33 Just before dawn Paul urged them all to eat. “For the last fourteen days,” he said, “you have been in constant suspense and have gone without food—you haven’t eaten anything. 34 Now I urge you to take some food. You need it to survive. Not one of you will lose a single hair from his head.”(C) 35 After he said this, he took some bread and gave thanks to God in front of them all. Then he broke it(D) and began to eat. 36 They were all encouraged(E) and ate some food themselves.
