In the night, the Lord said to Paul: \"Be constant, Paul; for as thou hast testified of me here, so must thou preach my name also in the city of Rome.\" On the following day, forty Jews made a conspiracy and resolved to kill Paul. Paul's sister's son heard of it and told Paul in the castle. Paul asked the guards to bring the young man to the tribune.
