³¹ So the armed men, as they were ordered, took Paul and came by night to Antipatris.

⁸ For I, myself, am a man under authority, having men under me; and I say to this one, Go, and he goes; and to another, Come, and he comes; and to my servant, Do this, and he does it.

²³ And he sent for two captains and said, Make ready two hundred men, with seventy horsemen and two hundred spearmen, to go to Caesarea, at the third hour of the night:

²⁴ And get beasts so that they may put Paul on them, and take him safely to Felix, the ruler.

³ Be ready to do without the comforts of life, as one of the army of Christ Jesus.

⁴ A fighting man, when he is with the army, keeps himself free from the business of this life so that he may be pleasing to him who has taken him into his army.
