Paul Is Sent to Caesarea
23Then the commander called two army officers.* He said to them, "I need some men
to go to Caesarea. Get 200 soldiers ready. Also, get 70 soldiers on horses and 200
men to carry spears. Be ready to leave at nine o'clock tonight. 24Get some horses
for Paul to ride. He must be taken to Governor Felix safely." 25The commander wrote
a letter. This is what the letter said:


26From Claudius Lysias To the Most Excellent Governor Felix: Greetings. 27The Jews
had taken this man (Paul), and they planned to kill him. But I learned that he is
a Roman citizen,* so I went with my soldiers and saved him. 28I wanted to know why
they were accusing him. So I brought him before their council meeting. 29This is
what I learned: The Jews said Paul did some things that were wrong. But these charges
were about their own Jewish laws. And none of these things were worthy of jail or
death. 30I was told that some of the Jews were making a plan to kill Paul. So I
send him to you. I also told those Jews to tell you the things they have against
him.

31The soldiers did the things they were told. The soldiers got Paul and took him
to the city of Antipatris that night. 32The next day the soldiers on horses went
with Paul to Caesarea. But the other soldiers and the spearmen went back to the
army building [in Jerusalem]. 33The soldiers on horses entered Caesarea and gave
the letter to the governor (Felix). Then they gave Paul to him. 34The governor
read the letter. Then he asked Paul, "What country are you from?" The governor learned
that Paul was from Cilicia. 35The governor said, "I will hear your case when the
Jews who are against you come here too." Then the governor gave orders for Paul
to be kept in the palace. (This building had been built by Herod.*)
