* And the soldiers ' counsel was to kill the prisoners , lest any of them should swim out , and escape . * But the centurion , willing to save Paul , kept them from their purpose ; and commanded that they which could swim should cast themselves first into the sea , and get to land : * And the rest , some on boards , and some on broken pieces of the ship . And so it came to pass , that they escaped all safe to land .
