Acts 23:11-16

[11] And  the night  following  the Lord  stood by  him,  and said,  Be of good cheer,  for  as  thou hast testified  of  in  Jerusalem,  so  must  bear witness  also  at  Rome.  [12] And  when it was  day,  of the Jews  banded together,  themselves  under a curse,  saying  neither  eat  nor  drink  till  they had killed  Paul.  [13] And  more than  forty  which  had made  conspiracy.  [14] And they  came to  the chief priests  and  elders,  and said,  We have bound  ourselves  under a great curse,  that we will eat  nothing  until  we have slain  Paul.  [15] Now  therefore  with  the council  signify  to the chief captain  that  him  down  as  though ye would  enquire  concerning  him:  and  or ever  he  come near,  ready  to kill  him.  [16] And  when Paul's  sister's  son  heard  he went  and  entered  into  the castle,  and told  Paul.
