1
After
these things
he left
Athens
and went
to Corinth.
2
And he found
a Jew
named
Aquila,
a native
of Pontus,
having recently
come
from Italy
with his wife
Priscilla,
because
Claudius
had commanded
all
the Jews
to leave
Rome.
He came
to them,
3
and because
he was of the same trade,
he stayed
with them and they were working,
for by trade
they were tent-makers.
4
And he was reasoning
in the synagogue
every
Sabbath
and trying to persuade
Jews
and Greeks.
5
But when
Silas
and Timothy
came down
from Macedonia,
Paul
began devoting himself completely
to the word,
solemnly testifying
to the Jews
that Jesus
was the Christ.
6
But when they resisted
and blasphemed,
he shook
out his garments
and said
to them, "Your blood
be on your own heads!
I am clean.
From now
on I will go
to the Gentiles."
7
Then
he left
there
and went
to the
house
of a man
named
Titius
Justus,
a worshiper
of God,
whose
house
was next
to the synagogue.
8
Crispus,
the leader of the synagogue,
believed
in the Lord
with all
his household,
and many
of the Corinthians
when they heard
were believing
and being baptized.
9
And the Lord
said
to Paul
in the night
by a vision,
"Do not be afraid
any longer, but go on speaking
and do not be silent;
10
for I am
with you, and no man
will attack
you in order to harm
you, for I have many
people
in this
city."
11
And he settled
there a year
and six
months,
teaching
the word
of God
among
them.
12
But while Gallio
was proconsul
of Achaia,
the Jews
with one accord
rose up against
Paul
and brought
him before
the judgment seat,
13
saying,
"This man
persuades
men
to worship
God
contrary
to the law."
14
But when Paul
was about
to open
his mouth,
Gallio
said
to the
Jews,
"If
it were a matter
of wrong
or
of vicious
crime,
O
Jews,
it would be reasonable
f
or
me to put
up with you;
15
but if
there are questions
about
words
and names
and your own law,
look after
it yourselves;
I am
unwilling
to be a judge
of these
matters."
16
And he drove them away
from the judgment seat.
17
And they all
took hold
of Sosthenes,
the leader of the synagogue,
and began beating
him in front
of the judgment seat.
But Gallio
was not concerned
about any
of these things.
18
Paul,
having remained
many
days
longer,
took leave
of the brethren
and put out to sea
for Syria,
and with him were Priscilla
and Aquila.
In Cenchrea
he had his hair
cut,
for he was keeping
a vow.
19
They came
to Ephesus,
and he left
them there.
Now
he himself
entered
the synagogue
and reasoned
with the Jews.
20
When they asked
him to stay
for a longer
time,
he did not consent,
21
but taking leave
of them and saying,
"I will return
to you again
if God
wills,"
he set sail
from Ephesus.
22
When he had landed
at Caesarea,
he went
up and greeted
the church,
and went down
to Antioch.
23
And having spent
some
time
there, he left
and passed
successively
through
the Galatian
region
and Phrygia,
strengthening
all
the disciples.
24
Now
a Jew
named
Apollos,
an Alexandrian
by birth,
an eloquent
man,
came
to Ephesus;
and he was mighty
in the Scriptures.
25
This man
had been
instructed
in the way
of the Lord;
and being fervent
in spirit,
he was speaking
and teaching
accurately
the things concerning
Jesus,
being acquainted
only
with the baptism
of John;
26
and he began
to speak out boldly
in the synagogue.
But when Priscilla
and Aquila
heard
him, they took him aside
and explained
to him the way
of God
more accurately.
27
And when he wanted
to go across
to Achaia,
the brethren
encouraged
him and wrote
to the disciples
to welcome
him; and when he had arrived,
he greatly
helped
those
who had believed
through
grace,
28
for he powerfully
refuted
the Jews
in public,
demonstrating
by the Scriptures
that Jesus
was the Christ.
