Acts 23:13-15

Living Bible

^12-13 The next morning some forty or more of the Jews got together and bound themselves by a curse neither to eat nor drink until they had killed Paul! ¹⁴ Then they went to the chief priests and elders and told them what they had done. ¹⁵ “Ask the commander to bring Paul back to the Council again,” they requested. “Pretend you want to ask a few more questions. We will kill him on the way.”
