Acts 23:16-22

16ButG1161 when theG3588 sonG5207 of Paul’sG3972 sisterG79 heard aboutG191 theG3588 plotG1747,1 he wentG3854G2532G1525 intoG1519 theG3588 barracksG3925 and toldG518 PaulG3972. 17ThenG1161 PaulG3972 calledG4341 oneG1520 of theG3588 centurionsG1543 and saidG5346, “TakeG520 thisG3778 young manG3494 toG4314 theG3588 commanderG5506; he hasG2192 somethingG5100 to tellG518 himG846.”

18SoG3767 the centurion took himG3880G846G71 toG4314 theG3588 commanderG5506 andG2532 saidG5346, “PaulG3972 theG3588 prisonerG1198 sentG4341 and askedG2065 meG1473 to bringG71 thisG3778 young manG3495 toG4314 youG4771. He hasG2192 somethingG5100 to tellG2980 youG4771.”

TheG3588 commanderG5506 tookG1949 the young man by theG3588 handG5495, drewG402 him asideG2596G2398, and askedG4441, “WhatG5101 do you needG1510G3739G2192 to tellG518 meG1473?”

20

He answeredG2036, “TheG3588 JewsG2453 have agreedG4934 to askG2065 youG4771 toG3704 bringG2609 PaulG3972 toG1519 theG3588 SanhedrinG4892 tomorrowG839 on the pretextG5613G3195 of acquiringG4441 more informationG199G5100 aboutG4012 himG846. 21Do not letG3361 themG846 persuadeG3982 youG4771, becauseG1063 more thanG4119 fortyG5062 menG435 are waiting to ambushG1748 himG846. They have bound themselves with an oathG332G1438 notG3383 to eatG5315 or drinkG4095 untilG2193G3739 they have killedG337 himG846; they areG1510 readyG2092 nowG3568, awaitingG4327 yourG575G4771 consentG1860.”

22SoG3767 theG3588 commanderG5506 dismissedG630 theG3588 young manG3495 and instructedG3853 him, “Do not tellG1583 anyone thatG3754 you have reportedG1718 thisG3778 toG4314 meG1473.”
