Acts 23:20-35
He said,“ The Jews have agreed to ask you to bring Paul down to the council tomorrow, as though intending to inquire somewhat more accurately concerning him.Therefore don’t yield to them, for more than forty men lie in wait for him, who have bound themselves under a curse to neither eat nor drink until they have killed him. Now they are ready, looking for the promise from you.”So the commanding officer let the young man go, charging him,“ Tell no one that you have revealed these things to me.”He called to himself two of the centurions, and said,“ Prepare two hundred soldiers to go as far as Caesarea, with seventy horsemen, and two hundred men armed with spears, at the third hour of the night.”He asked them to provide animals, that they might set Paul on one, and bring him safely to Felix the governor.He wrote a letter like this:“ Claudius Lysias to the most excellent governor Felix: Greetings.“ This man was seized by the Jews, and was about to be killed by them, when I came with the soldiers and rescued him, having learned that he was a Roman.Desiring to know the cause why they accused him, I brought him down to their council.I found him to be accused about questions of their law, but not to be charged with anything worthy of death or of imprisonment.When I was told that the Jews lay in wait for the man, I sent him to you immediately, charging his accusers also to bring their accusations against him before you. Farewell.”So the soldiers, carrying out their orders, took Paul and brought him by night to Antipatris.But on the next day they left the horsemen to go with him, and returned to the barracks.When they came to Caesarea and delivered the letter to the governor, they also presented Paul to him.When the governor had read it, he asked what province he was from. When he understood that he was from Cilicia, he said,“ I will hear you fully when your accusers also arrive.” He commanded that he be kept in Herod’s palace.

Jeremiah 15:15-21
Yahweh, you know. Remember me, visit me, and avenge me of my persecutors. You are patient, so don’t take me away. Know that for your sake I have suffered reproach.Your words were found, and I ate them. Your words were to me a joy and the rejoicing of my heart, for I am called by your name, Yahweh, God of Armies.I didn’t sit in the assembly of those who make merry and rejoice. I sat alone because of your hand, for you have filled me with indignation.Why is my pain perpetual, and my wound incurable, which refuses to be healed? Will you indeed be to me as a deceitful brook, like waters that fail?Therefore Yahweh says,“ If you return, then I will bring you again, that you may stand before me; and if you take out the precious from the vile, you will be as my mouth. They will return to you, but you will not return to them.I will make you to this people a fortified bronze wall. They will fight against you, but they will not prevail against you; for I am with you to save you and to deliver you,” says Yahweh.“ I will deliver you out of the hand of the wicked, and I will redeem you out of the hand of the terrible.”
