10The disputeG4714 grewG1096 so violentG4183 that theG3588 commanderG5506 was afraidG5399G3361 theyG5259G846 would tear Paul to piecesG1288G3588G3972. He orderedG2753 theG3588 soldiersG4753 to go downG2597 and remove him by forceG726G846G1537G3319 andG5037 bringG71 him intoG1519 theG3588 barracksG3925.

TheG3588 followingG1966 nightG3571 theG3588 LordG2962 stood nearG2186 Paul and saidG2036, “Take courageG2293! AsG5613 you have testifiedG1263 aboutG4012 MeG1473 inG1519 JerusalemG2419, soG3779 alsoG2532 youG4771 mustG1163 testifyG3140 inG1519 RomeG4516.”

When daylight cameG1096G2250, theG3588 JewsG2453 formedG4160 a conspiracyG4963 and bound themselves with an oathG332G1438G3004 notG3383 to eatG5315 or drinkG4095 untilG2193G3739 they had killedG615 PaulG3972. 13More thanG4119 fortyG5062 of them wereG1510 involvedG4160 in thisG3778 plotG4945. 14TheyG3748 wentG4334 to theG3588 chief priestsG749 andG2532 eldersG4245 and saidG2036, “We have boundG332 ourselvesG1438 with a solemn oathG331 not to eatG1089 anything untilG2193G3739 we have killedG615 PaulG3972. 15NowG3568 thenG3767, youG4771 andG4862 theG3588 SanhedrinG4892 petitionG1718 theG3588 commanderG5506 toG3704 bring him downG2609G846 toG1519 youG4771 on the pretextG5613G3195 of examiningG1231 his caseG3588G4012G846 more carefullyG199. WeG1473 areG1510 readyG2092 to killG337 himG846 on the wayG4253G846G3588G1448.”

16ButG1161 when theG3588 sonG5207 of Paul’sG3972 sisterG79 heard aboutG191 theG3588 plotG1747,1 he wentG3854G2532G1525 intoG1519 theG3588 barracksG3925 and toldG518 PaulG3972.
