And he said,“ The Jews have agreed to ask you to bring Paul down to the council tomorrow, as though they were going to inquire somewhat more closely about him.But do not be persuaded by them, for more than forty of their men are lying in ambush for him, who have bound themselves by an oath neither to eat nor drink till they have killed him. And now they are ready, waiting for your consent.”So the tribune dismissed the young man, charging him,“ Tell no one that you have informed me of these things.”Then he called two of the centurions and said,“ Get ready two hundred soldiers, with seventy horsemen and two hundred spearmen to go as far as Caesarea at the third hour of the night.Also provide mounts for Paul to ride and bring him safely to Felix the governor.”And he wrote a letter to this effect:“ Claudius Lysias, to his Excellency the governor Felix, greetings.This man was seized by the Jews and was about to be killed by them when I came upon them with the soldiers and rescued him, having learned that he was a Roman citizen.And desiring to know the charge for which they were accusing him, I brought him down to their council.I found that he was being accused about questions of their law, but charged with nothing deserving death or imprisonment.And when it was disclosed to me that there would be a plot against the man, I sent him to you at once, ordering his accusers also to state before you what they have against him.”So the soldiers, according to their instructions, took Paul and brought him by night to Antipatris.And on the next day they returned to the barracks, letting the horsemen go on with him.When they had come to Caesarea and delivered the letter to the governor, they presented Paul also before him.On reading the letter, he asked what province he was from. And when he learned that he was from Cilicia,he said,“ I will give you a hearing when your accusers arrive.” And he commanded him to be guarded in Herod’s praetorium.

Jeremiah 15:15-21
O Lord, you know; remember me and visit me, and take vengeance for me on my persecutors. In your forbearance take me not away; know that for your sake I bear reproach.Your words were found, and I ate them, and your words became to me a joy and the delight of my heart, for I am called by your name, O Lord, God of hosts.I did not sit in the company of revelers, nor did I rejoice; I sat alone, because your hand was upon me, for you had filled me with indignation.Why is my pain unceasing, my wound incurable, refusing to be healed? Will you be to me like a deceitful brook, like waters that fail?Therefore thus says the Lord:“ If you return, I will restore you, and you shall stand before me. If you utter what is precious, and not what is worthless, you shall be as my mouth. They shall turn to you, but you shall not turn to them.And I will make you to this people a fortified wall of bronze; they will fight against you, but they shall not prevail over you, for I am with you to save you and deliver you, declares the Lord.I will deliver you out of the hand of the wicked, and redeem you from the grasp of the ruthless.”
