Acts 23:20 in Context — Acts 23
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.
19 E o comandante, tomando-o pela mão, e indo para um lugar reservado, perguntou [-lhe] : O que tens para me avisar?
20 E ele disse: Os judeus combinaram de te pedirem que amanhã tu leves a Paulo ao supremo conselho, como se fosse para que lhe perguntem mais detalhadamente;
21 Porém tu, não acredites neles; porque mais de quarenta homens deles estão lhe preparando cilada, os quais sob pena de maldição fizeram juramento para não comerem nem beberem enquanto não o tiverem matado; e eles já estão preparados, esperando de ti a promessa.
22 Então o comandante despediu ao rapaz, mandando [-lhe] : A ninguém digas que tu me revelaste estas coisas.
