Acts 27:40-42

Revised Geneva Translation

⁴⁰ So when they had taken up the anchors, they committed to the sea, and released the rudder ropes, and hoisted up the mainsail to the wind, and drew to the shore.

⁴¹ And having fallen into a place where two seas met, they thrust in the ship. And the bow stuck fast, and could not be moved. But the stern was broken with the violence of the waves.

⁴² Then the soldiers planned to kill the prisoners, so that none of them could swim away and escape.
