And now they are ready, waiting for a promise from you. 22 So the chief captain let the young man depart and charged him, Tell no one that you have revealed these things to me. 23 And he called two centurions, saying, Make ready two hundred soldiers to go to Caesarea, and seventy horsemen, and two hundred spearmen at the third hour of the night; 24 And provide animals to set Paul on, and bring him safely to Felix the governor.
