21 When they had gone without food for a long time, Paul stood up among them and said, "Men, you should have listened to me and spared yourselves this hardship and loss by refusing to set sail from Crete.
22 I now bid you cheer up. There will be no loss of life, only of the ship.
23 For last night an angel of the God I belong to and serve, stood before me,
24 saying, 'Have no fear, Paul; you must stand before Caesar. And God has granted you the lives of all your fellow-voyagers.'
25 Cheer up, men! I believe God, I believe it will turn out just as I have been told.
26 However, we are to be stranded on an island."
