31 But Paul said to the centurion and the soldiers, “Unless these men remain with the ship, you cannot be saved.”

33 Right up to daybreak, Paul kept urging them all to eat: “Today is your fourteenth day in constant suspense, without taking any food.

34 So for your own preservation, I urge you to eat something, because not a single hair of your head will be lost.”
