## Acts 27:29 in Context (Verses 26–32 KJV)
 
 [26 ](/kjv/acts/27/26) Howbeit we must be cast upon a certain island.
 
 [27 ](/kjv/acts/27/27) But when the fourteenth night was come, as we were driven up and down in Adria, about midnight the shipmen deemed that they drew near to some country;
 
 [28 ](/kjv/acts/27/28) And sounded, and found *it* twenty fathoms: and when they had gone a little further, they sounded again, and found *it* fifteen fathoms.
 
 [29 ](/kjv/acts/27/29) Then fearing lest we should have fallen upon rocks, they cast four anchors out of the stern, and wished for the day.
 
 [30 ](/kjv/acts/27/30) And as the shipmen were about to flee out of the ship, when they had let down the boat into the sea, under colour as though they would have cast anchors out of the foreship,
 
 [31 ](/kjv/acts/27/31) Paul said to the centurion and to the soldiers, Except these abide in the ship, ye cannot be saved.
 
 [32 ](/kjv/acts/27/32) Then the soldiers cut off the ropes of the boat, and let her fall off.
