Both occurrences use the accusative singular feminine form in clauses concerning a concealed plan against someone. In Acts 23:16 the APB renders the report brought to Paul as news of “the plot”; in Acts 25:3 it renders a plan connected with sending a man to Jerusalem while others intend “to kill him on the road.”
In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the term as “the plot” in Acts 23:16 and as a “plot” connected with killing someone on the road in Acts 25:3. These are whole-verse translation renderings rather than definitions.
