Paul Sent to Felix the Governor
23 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.[a] 24 Also provide mounts for Paul to ride and bring him safely to (A)Felix (B)the governor.” 25 And he wrote a letter to this effect:
26 “Claudius Lysias, to (C)his Excellency the governor Felix, (D)greetings. 27 (E)This man was seized by the Jews and (F)was about to be killed by them (G)when I came upon them with the soldiers and rescued him, (H)having learned that he was a Roman citizen. 28 And (I)desiring to know the charge for which they were accusing him, I brought him down to their council. 29 I found that he was being accused (J)about questions of their law, but (K)charged with nothing deserving death or imprisonment. 30 (L)And when it was disclosed to me (M)that there would be a plot against the man, I sent him to you at once, (N)ordering his accusers also to state before you what they have against him.”
31 So the soldiers, according to their instructions, took Paul and brought him by night to Antipatris. 32 And on the next day they returned to (O)the barracks, letting the horsemen go on with him. 33 When they had come to Caesarea and delivered the letter to the governor, they presented Paul also before him. 34 On reading the letter, he asked what (P)province he was from. And when he learned (Q)that he was from Cilicia, 35 he said, “I will give you a hearing (R)when your accusers arrive.” And he commanded him to be guarded in Herod's (S)praetorium.

Paul Transferred to Caesarea
23 Then he called two of his centurions and ordered them, “Get ready a detachment of two hundred soldiers, seventy horsemen and two hundred spearmen[a] to go to Caesarea(A) at nine tonight.(B) 24 Provide horses for Paul so that he may be taken safely to Governor Felix.”(C)
25 He wrote a letter as follows:
26 Claudius Lysias,
To His Excellency,(D) Governor Felix:
Greetings.(E)
27 This man was seized by the Jews and they were about to kill him,(F) but I came with my troops and rescued him,(G) for I had learned that he is a Roman citizen.(H) 28 I wanted to know why they were accusing him, so I brought him to their Sanhedrin.(I) 29 I found that the accusation had to do with questions about their law,(J) but there was no charge against him(K) that deserved death or imprisonment. 30 When I was informed(L) of a plot(M) to be carried out against the man, I sent him to you at once. I also ordered his accusers(N) to present to you their case against him.
31 So the soldiers, carrying out their orders, took Paul with them during the night and brought him as far as Antipatris. 32 The next day they let the cavalry(O) go on with him, while they returned to the barracks.(P) 33 When the cavalry(Q) arrived in Caesarea,(R) they delivered the letter to the governor(S) and handed Paul over to him. 34 The governor read the letter and asked what province he was from. Learning that he was from Cilicia,(T) 35 he said, “I will hear your case when your accusers(U) get here.” Then he ordered that Paul be kept under guard(V) in Herod’s palace.
