Acts 23:23-35

23And he called unto him twoG1417 of the centurionsG1543, and saidG3004, MakeG2090 readyG2090 twoG1417 hundredG1250 soldiersG4757 to goG4198 as farG2193 as Cæsarea, and horsemenG2460 threescore and ten, and spearmen twoG1417 hundredG1250, at the thirdG5154 hourG5610 of the nightG3571: 24and he bade them provide beasts, that they might set PaulG3972 thereon, and bring him safe unto FelixG5344 the governorG2232. 25And he wroteG1125 a letterG1992 after this form:

26ClaudiusG2804 LysiasG3079 unto the mostG2903 excellentG2903 governorG2232 FelixG5344, greetingG5463. 27This manG435 wasG1510 seized by the JewsG2453, and wasG1510 about to beG1510 slain of them, when I cameG2186 upon them with the soldiers and rescued him, having learnedG3129 that he wasG1510 a RomanG4514. 28And desiring to knowG1921 the causeG156 wherefore they accused him, I broughtG2609 him downG2609 unto their councilG4892: 29whom I foundG2147 to be accused about questionsG2213 of their lawG3551, but to have nothingG3367 laid to his charge worthyG514 of deathG2288 or of bonds. 30And when it wasG1510 shown to me that there would beG1510 a plotG1917 against the manG435, I sentG3992 him to thee forthwith, charging his accusersG2725 alsoG2532 to speakG3004 against him before thee.

31So the soldiersG4757, as it was commandedG1299 them, tookG353 PaulG3972 and broughtG71 him by nightG3571 to Antipatris. 32But on the morrow they left the horsemenG2460 to goG565 with him, and returnedG5290 to the castle: 33and they, when they cameG1525 to Cæsarea and delivered the letterG1992 to the governorG2232, presentedG3936 PaulG3972 alsoG2532 before him. 34And when he had readG314 it, he askedG1905 of what provinceG1885 he wasG1510; and when he understood that he wasG1510 of CiliciaG2791, 35I will hear thee fully, saidG5346 he, whenG3752 thine accusersG2725 alsoG2532 are comeG3854: and he commandedG2753 him to be keptG5442 in Herod’s palace.
