Acts 27:27-29
New Catholic Bible
27 On the fourteenth night, we were still drifting across the Adriatic Sea.[a] About midnight, the sailors began to suspect that they were nearing land, 28 so they took soundings and found that the water was twenty feet deep. A little farther on they again took soundings and found fifteen feet.
29 Fearing that we might run aground on the rocks, they let down four anchors from the stern and prayed for daylight to come.
