20And he saidG3004, “1The JewsG2453 have agreedG4934 to askG2065 you to bringG2609 PaulG3972 downG2609 tomorrowG839 to 2the 3CouncilG4892, asG5613 thoughG5613 they wereG3195 goingG3195 toG3195 inquireG4441 somewhatG5100 moreG199 thoroughlyG199 aboutG4012 him.
21SoG3767 do not 4listenG3982 to them, for moreG4183 than fortyG5065 5of them are 6in hidingG1748 toG1748 ambushG1748 him, and theseG3748 menG3748 have 7putG332 themselvesG1438 underG332 anG332 oathG332 not to eatG2068 orG3383 drinkG4095 untilG2193 they killG337 him; and nowG3568 they are readyG2092 and waitingG4327 for assuranceG1860 from you.”
22ThenG3767 the commanderG5506 letG630 the youngG3495 manG3495 goG630, instructingG3853 him, “TellG1583 noG3367 oneG3367 that you have notifiedG1718 me of theseG3778 thingsG3778.”
23And he calledG4341 to him twoG1417 of the centurionsG1543 and saidG3004, “GetG2090 twoG1250 hundredG1250 soldiersG4757 readyG2090 by 8the thirdG5154 hourG5610 of the nightG3571 to proceedG4198 to 9CaesareaG2542, 10with seventyG1440 horsemenG2460 and twoG1250 hundredG1250 11spearmenG1187.”
