Acts 23:16-24
English Standard Version

Chapter 23

16Now the son of Paul 's sister heard of their ambush, so he went and entered the barracks and told Paul. 17Paul called one of the centurions and said, "Take this young man to the tribune, for he has something to tell him." 18So he took him and brought him to the tribune and said, "Paul the prisoner called me and asked me to bring this young man to you, as he has something to say to you." 19The tribune took him by the hand, and going aside asked him privately, "What is it that you have to tell me?" 20And he said, "The Jews have agreed to ask you to bring Paul down to the council tomorrow, as though they were going to inquire somewhat more closely about him. 21But do not be persuaded by them, for more than forty of their men are lying in ambush for him, who have bound themselves by an oath neither to eat nor drink till they have killed him. And now they are ready, waiting for your consent." 22So the tribune dismissed the young man, charging him, "Tell no one that you have informed me of these things."
23Then he called two of the centurions and said, "Get ready two hundred soldiers, with seventy horsemen and two hundred spearmen to go as far as Caesarea at the third hour of the night. 24Also provide mounts for Paul to ride and bring him safely to Felix the governor."
