Faith prays and Bob reads the passage for us. 12 When it was day, uthe Jews made a plot and vboundthemselves by an oath neither to eat nor drink till they had killedPaul. 13 There were more than forty who made this conspiracy.14 They went to the chief priests and elders and said, “We havestrictly bound ourselves by an oath to taste no food till we havekilled Paul. 15 Now therefore you, along with the council, givenotice to the tribune to bring him down to you, as though you weregoing to determine his case more exactly. And we are ready to killhim before he comes near.” 16 Now the son of Paul’s sister heard of their ambush, so he wentand entered wthe barracks and told Paul. 17 Paul called one of thecenturions and said, “Take this young man to the tribune, for hehas something to tell him.” 18 So he took him and brought him tothe tribune and said, “Paul xthe prisoner called me and asked me tobring this young man to you, as he has something to say to you.”19 The tribune took him by the hand, and going aside asked himprivately, “What is it that you have to tell me?” 20 And he said,y“The Jews have agreed to ask you to bring Paul down to thecouncil tomorrow, as though they were going to inquire somewhatmore closely about him. 21 But do not be persuaded by them, formore than forty of their men are lying in ambush for him, whozhave bound themselves by an oath neither to eat nor drink tillthey have killed him. And now they are ready, waiting for yourconsent.” 22 So the tribune dismissed the young man, charging him,“Tell no one that you have informed me of these things.” Paul Sent to Felix the Governor 23 Then he called two of the centurions and said, “Get ready twohundred soldiers, with seventy horsemen and two hundredspearmen to go as far as Caesarea at the third hour of the night.124 Also provide mounts for Paul to ride and bring him safely toaFelix bthe governor.” 25 And he wrote a letter to this effect: 26 “Claudius Lysias, to chis Excellency the governor Felix,dgreetings. 27 eThis man was seized by the Jews and fwas about tobe killed by them fwhen I came upon them with the soldiers andrescued him, ghaving learned that he was a Roman citizen. 28 Andhdesiring to know the charge for which they were accusing him, Ibrought him down to their council. 29 I found that he was beingaccused iabout questions of their law, but jcharged with nothingdeserving death or imprisonment. 30 kAnd when it was disclosed tome lthat there would be a plot against the man, I sent him to you atonce, mordering his accusers also to state before you what theyhave against him.” 31 So the soldiers, according to their instructions, took Paul andbrought him by night to Antipatris. 32 And on the next day theyreturned to nthe barracks, letting the horsemen go on with him.33 When they had come to Caesarea and delivered the letter to thegovernor, they presented Paul also before him. 34 On reading theletter, he asked what oprovince he was from.
