Acts 27:40 · KJV
And casting off the anchors, they left them in the sea, at the same time loosing the bands of the rudders; and hoisting up the foresail to the wind, they made for the beach.
So cutting away the hooks, and letting them go into the sea, and freeing the cords of the guiding-blades, and lifting up the sail to the wind, they went in the direction of the inlet.
Και κοψαντες τας αγκυρας, αφηκαν το πλοιον εις την θαλασσαν, λυσαντες ενταυτω τους δεσμους των πηδαλιων, και υψωσαντες τον αρτεμονα προς τον ανεμον, κατηυθυνοντο εις τον αιγιαλον.
And when they had taken up the anchors, they committed themselves unto the sea, and loosed the rudder bands, and hoised up the mainsail to the wind, and made toward shore.
