We are ready to kill him before he gets here. 16 But the son of Paul’s sister heard about the ambush, so he went to the barracks and reported it to Paul. 17 Then Paul called one of the centurions and said, 'Take this young man to the commander, for he has something to report to him.' 18 So the centurion took him, led him to the commander, and said, 'The prisoner Paul called me and asked me to bring this young man to you because he has something to tell you.' 19 The commander took the young man by the hand, drew him aside, and asked him privately, 'What is it you have to tell me?' 20 He said, 'The Jews have agreed to ask you to bring Paul down to the council tomorrow, as though they are going to inquire more thoroughly about him.' 21 But do not be persuaded by them, because more than forty of them are lying in wait for him.

Now they are ready and waiting for your consent. 22 So the commander dismissed the young man and ordered him, 'Don’t tell anyone that you have informed me about this.'
