Acts 27:16-18

Tree of Life Version

¹⁶ As we ran under the shelter of a small island called Cauda, we were barely able to get control of the dinghy. ¹⁷ When the crew had hoisted it up, they made use of ropes to undergird the ship. Then fearing they might run aground on the Syrtis,^[a] they let down the anchor and so were driven along. ¹⁸ But as we were violently battered by the storm, the next day they began throwing cargo overboard.
