Acts 23
23 Ref and having called near a certain two of the centurions, he said, `Make ready soldiers two hundred, that they may go on unto Caesarea, and horsemen seventy, and spearmen two hundred, from the third hour of the night;
24 Ref beasts also provide, that, having set Paul on, they may bring him safe unto Felix the governor;'
25 he having written a letter after this description:
26 Ref `Claudius Lysias, to the most noble governor Felix, hail:
27 Ref This man having been taken by the Jews, and being about to be killed by them -- having come with the soldiery, I rescued him, having learned that he is a Roman;
28 Ref and, intending to know the cause for which they were accusing him, I brought him down to their sanhedrim,
29 Ref whom I found accused concerning questions of their law, and having no accusation worthy of death or bonds;
30 Ref and a plot having been intimated to me against this man -- about to be of the Jews -- at once I sent unto thee, having given command also to the accusers to say the things against him before thee; be strong.'
31 Ref Then, indeed, the soldiers according to that directed them, having taken up Paul, brought him through the night to Antipatris,
32 Ref and on the morrow, having suffered the horsemen to go on with him, they returned to the castle;
33 Ref those having entered into Caesarea, and delivered the letter to the governor, did present also Paul to him.
34 Ref And the governor having read `it', and inquired of what province he is, and understood that `he is' from Cilicia;
35 Ref `I will hear thee -- said he -- when thine accusers also may have come;' he also commanded him to be kept in the praetorium of Herod.
