Acts 27:42-44 And the counsel of the soldiers was to kill the prisoners, least any of them should swim out and escape.

Worsley⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁴² And the counsel of the soldiers was to kill the prisoners, least any of them should swim out and escape. ⁴³ But the centurion, desirous to save Paul, hindered them from their purpose, and ordered those that could swim to throw themselves out first, and get off to land: ⁴⁴ and the rest, some on planks, and others on some other things out of the ship. And so it came to pass that they all got safe to land.
