Acts 27:27-29

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

²⁷ The fourteenth night had come and we were drifting and being driven about in the Adriatic Sea, when about midnight the sailors began to suspect that they were drawing near to some land.

²⁸ So they took soundings and found twenty fathoms, and a little farther on they sounded again and found fifteen fathoms.

²⁹ Then fearing that we might fall off [our course] onto rocks, they dropped four anchors from the stern and kept wishing for daybreak to come.
