Acts 27:18
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
We were tossed so violently that the next day the men began to jettison the cargo.
In context
16 Passing to the lee of a small island called Cauda, we barely managed to secure the lifeboat.
17 After hoisting it up, the crew used ropes to undergird the ship. And fearing that they would run aground on the sandbars of Syrtis, they lowered the sea anchor and were driven along.
18 We were tossed so violently that the next day the men began to jettison the cargo.
19 On the third day, they threw the ship’s tackle overboard with their own hands.
20 When neither sun nor stars appeared for many days and the great storm continued to batter us, we abandoned all hope of being saved.
