14 Os quais foram até os chefes dos sacerdotes e os anciãos, [e] disseram: Fizemos juramento sob pena de maldição, de que nada experimentaremos enquanto não matarmos a Paulo.
15 Agora, pois, vós, com o supremo conselho, informai ao comandante que amanhã ele o traga perante vós, como se fosse para que investigueis mais detalhadamente; e antes que ele chegue, estaremos prontos para o matar.
16 E o filho da irmã de Paulo, tendo ouvido esta cilada, veio e entrou na área fortificada, e avisou a Paulo.
17 E Paulo, tendo chamado a si um dos centuriões, disse: Leva este rapaz ao comandante, porque ele tem algo para lhe avisar.
18 Então ele o tomou, levou ao comandante, e disse: O prisioneiro Paulo, tendo me chamado, rogou [-me] que eu te trouxesse este rapaz, que tem algo a te dizer.
