Acts 23:19 in Context — Acts 23

17 Paul appela l’un des centeniers, et dit: Mène ce jeune homme vers le tribun, car il a quelque chose à lui rapporter.

18 Le centenier prit le jeune homme avec lui, le conduisit vers le tribun, et dit: Le prisonnier Paul m’a appelé, et il m’a prié de t’amener ce jeune homme, qui a quelque chose à te dire.

19 Le tribun, prenant le jeune homme par la main, et se retirant à l’écart, lui demanda: Qu’as-tu à m’annoncer?

20 Il répondit: Les Juifs sont convenus de te prier d’amener Paul demain devant le sanhédrin, comme si tu devais t’enquérir de lui plus exactement.

21 Ne les écoute pas, car plus de quarante d’entre eux lui dressent un guet-apens, et se sont engagés, avec des imprécations contre eux-mêmes, à ne rien manger ni boire jusqu’à ce qu’ils l’aient tué; maintenant ils sont prêts, et n’attendent que ton consentement.
