Acts 27:33-38
English Standard Version
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 (A)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 (B)giving thanks to God in the presence of all he broke it and began to eat. 36 Then they all (C)were encouraged and ate some food themselves. 37 (We were in all 276[b] (D)persons in the ship.) 38 And when they had eaten enough, they lightened the ship, (E)throwing out the wheat into the sea.

Acts 27:33-38
New International Version
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.”(A) 35 After he said this, he took some bread and gave thanks to God in front of them all. Then he broke it(B) and began to eat. 36 They were all encouraged(C) and ate some food themselves. 37 Altogether there were 276 of us on board. 38 When they had eaten as much as they wanted, they lightened the ship by throwing the grain into the sea.(D)
