Mais n'y consens point : car plus de quarante hommes d'entre eux sont en embûches contre lui, qui ont fait un vœu avec exécration de serment, de ne manger ni boire jusqu'à ce qu'ils l'aient tué; et ils sont maintenant tous prêts, attendant ce que tu leur permettras.
Mais ne te fie point à eux; car plus de quarante d'entre eux lui dressent des embûches, et se sont engagés avec des imprécations contre eux-mêmes, à ne manger ni boire qu'ils ne l'aient tué; et maintenant ils sont prêts, attendant ta réponse.
Toi donc n'y consens pas, car plus de quarante hommes d'entre eux lui dressent un guet-apens, lesquels se sont obligés par un serment d'exécration de ne manger ni ne boire jusqu'à ce qu'ils l'aient tué; et ils sont maintenant prêts, attendant de toi la promesse.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
But do not thou yield unto them,.... Or be persuaded by them, to bring Paul down from the castle to the sanhedrim; this must not be imputed to the young man's pride and vanity, in taking upon him to give advice to the chief captain; but to his great affection for his uncle, which moved him to entreat, rather than to direct him, for which he gives a good reason:
for there lie in wait for him more than forty men, which have bound themselves with an oath, that they will neither eat nor drink till they have killed him; :-.
:-.
and now are they ready; to execute their designs, being met together, and lying in ambush in some place, between the castle and the place where the sanhedrim met:
looking for a promise from thee; that when the sanhedrim should apply to him, he would promise them to bring Paul down according to their request; and for the making and performing of this promise, these men were waiting.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Looking for a promise from thee - Waiting for your consent to bring him down to them.
