Acts 23:14 CPDV

¹²  And when daylight arrived, some of the Jews gathered together and bound themselves with an oath, saying that they would neither eat nor drink until they had killed Paul.

¹³  Now there were more than forty men who had taken this oath together.

¹⁴  And they approached the leaders of the priests, and the elders, and they said: 'We have sworn ourselves by an oath, so that we will taste nothing, until we have killed Paul.

¹⁵  Therefore, with the council, you should now give notice to the tribune, so that he may bring him to you, as if you intended to determine something else about him. But before he approaches, we have made preparations to put him to death.'

¹⁶  But when Paul's sister's son had heard of this, about their treachery, he went and entered into the fortress, and he reported it to Paul.
