Acts 23:10-15

10And when there aroseG1096 a greatG4183 dissension, the chief captain, fearingG5399 lestG3361 PaulG3972 should be tornG1288 in pieces by them, commandedG2753 the soldiers to goG2597 downG2597 and take him by force from among them, and bringG71 him into the castle.

11And the nightG3571 following the LordG2962 stood by him, and saidG3004, Be of good cheer: for as thou hast testifiedG3140 concerningG4012 me at JerusalemG2419, so must thou bearG3140 witnessG3140 alsoG2532 at RomeG4516.

12And when it was dayG2250, the JewsG2453 banded together, and bound themselves under a curse, sayingG3004 that they would neither eatG2068 nor drinkG4095 till they had killedG615 PaulG3972. 13And they wereG1510 moreG4183 than fortyG5062 that madeG4160 this conspiracy. 14And they cameG4334 to the chiefG749 priestsG749 and the eldersG4245, and saidG3004, We have bound ourselves under a great curse, to tasteG1089 nothingG3367 until we have killedG615 PaulG3972. 15NowG1161 thereforeG3767 do ye with the councilG4892 signify to the chief captain that he bringG2609 him downG2609 unto you, as though ye would judge of his case more exactly: and we, before he comes near, areG1510 readyG2092 to slay him.
