Acts 23:17-22

17And Paul, having called one of the centurions, said, Take this youth to the chiliarch, for he has something to report to him.

18He therefore, having taken him with [him], led him to the chiliarch, and says, The prisoner Paul called me to [him] and asked me to lead this youth to thee, who has something to say to thee.

19And the chiliarch having taken him by the hand, and having gone apart in private, inquired, What is it that thou hast to report to me?

20And he said, The Jews have agreed together to make a request to thee, that thou mayest bring Paul down to-morrow into the council, as about to inquire something more precise concerning him.

21Do not thou then be persuaded by them, for there lie in wait for him of them more than forty men, who have put themselves under a curse neither to eat nor drink till they kill him; and now they are ready waiting the promise from thee.

22The chiliarch then dismissed the youth, commanding [him], Utter to no one that thou hast represented these things to me.
