"Was like to be"

1. Jonah 1: 4
     4 ¶ But the Lord sent out a great wind into the sea, and there was a mighty tempest in the sea, so that the ship was like to be broken.
2. Mosiah 27: 27
     27 I say unto you, unless this be the case, they must be cast off; and this I know, because I was like to be cast off.
