18 He therefore took him along and conducting him to the commander said, Paul the prisoner called me to him, and desired me to introduce to thee this young man who hath something to tell thee.
19 Thereupon the commander took him by the hand, and retiring to a private place asked, What is it that thou hast to tell me?

21 but be not prevailed on by them; for there are more than forty men of them in ambush, who have bound themselves by a solemn anathema not to eat nor drink, till they have killed him, and they are now ready, expecting this promise from thee.
22 Upon this the commander dismissed the young man with this charge, Tell no one that thou hast given me this information.
