²⁵ Then His disciples came to Him and awoke Him, saying, “Lord, save us! We are perishing!”

^23 (A)For there stood by me this night an angel of the God to whom I belong and ^(B)whom I serve, ²⁴ saying, ‘Do not be afraid, Paul; you must be brought before Caesar; and indeed God has granted you all those who sail with you.’ ²⁵ Therefore take heart, men, ^(C)for I believe God that it will be just as it was told me.

¹⁴ Therefore they cried out to the Lord and said, “We pray, O Lord, please do not let us perish for this man’s life, and ^(A)do not charge us with innocent blood; for You, O Lord, ^(B)have done as it pleased You.”

⁵ Then the mariners were afraid; and every man cried out to his god, and threw the cargo that was in the ship into the sea, to lighten ^[a]the load. But Jonah had gone down ^(A)into the lowest parts of the ship, had lain down, and was fast asleep.

⁶ So the captain came to him, and said to him, “What do you mean, sleeper? Arise, ^(B)call on your God; ^(C)perhaps your God will consider us, so that we may not perish.”
