In context
31 But Paul said to the centurion and the soldiers, “Unless these men remain with the ship, you cannot be saved.”
32 So the soldiers cut the ropes to the lifeboat and set it adrift.
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.”
35 After he had said this, Paul took bread and gave thanks to God in front of them all. Then he broke it and began to eat.
36 They were all encouraged and took some food themselves.
37 In all, there were 276 of us on board.
