1 After these things Paul departed from Athens and
came to Corinth.
2 And finding there a certain Jew,
named Aquila, a native of Pontus, who was lately come
from Italy, note with his wife Priscilla, (because Claudius
Cesar had ordered all the Jews to depart from Rome,)
he went to them;
3 and as he was of the same trade, he
staid and worked with them: for they were note tent-makers.
4 And he discoursed in the synagogue every
sabbath-day, and persuaded both Jews and Greeks.
5 And when Silas and Timothy came down from Macedonia,
Paul was very urgent in spirit, testifying to
the Jews that Jesus was the note Messiah.
6 But as they
opposed and note blasphemed, he shook his garment, and
said unto them, Your blood be upon your own heads;
I am clear of it: from henceforth I will go to the
Gentiles.
7 And departing thence, he went to the house of one
named Justus, who worshipped God, whose house was
contiguous to the synagogue.
8 But Crispus the ruler of
the synagogue believed on the Lord with all his house:
and many of the Corinthians hearing the word believed,
-- --
and were baptized.
9 And the Lord said to Paul by a
vision in the night, “Fear not, but speak: and be not
silent:
10 for I am with thee, and no man shall lay hands
on thee to hurt thee; for I have much people in this
city.”
11 And he note staid a year and six months, teaching
among them the word of God.
12 But when Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews
with one accord rose against Paul, and brought him to
the seat of justice,
13 saying, note this fellow persuadeth men
to worship God contrary to the law.
14 And when Paul
was going to note speak, Gallio said to the Jews, If it
were indeed an act of injustice, or some wicked crime,
it would be reasonable that I should bear with you.
15 But if it be a question about note words, and names, and
your law, settle it yourselves; for I will be no judge of
these matters.
16 And he note ordered them away from the
tribunal.
17 Then all the Greeks took Sosthenes the
ruler of the synagogue, and beat him even before the
tribunal: note but Gallio did not concern himself note about
the matter.
18 And after Paul had staid there yet a note considerable time,
he took leave of the brethren, and sailed from thence
to Syria, and with him Priscilla and Aquila, after he
had shaved his head at Cenchrea; for he had a vow.
19 And he came to Esphesus, and left them there: but before
his departure he himself went into the synagogue,
and reasoned with the Jews.
20 Though when they desired
him to stay longer note with them, he did not consent:
but took his leave of them,
21 saying, I must by all means
keep the approaching feast at Jerusalem; but I will return
to you again, God willing. So he sailed from
Ephesus;
22 and landing at Cesarea, went up to Jerusalem,
and after he had saluted the church, he went down to
Antioch.
23 And when he had spent some time there, he
departed, and went in order through the country of
Galatia and Phrygia strengthening all the disciples.
24 Now there came to Ephesus a certain Jew named
Apollos, an Alexandrian by birth, an eloquent man,
and note mighty in the scriptures.
25 noteWho had been instructed
in the way of our Lord; and being fervent in
-- --
spirit, he spake and taught note clearly the things of the
Lord, though he knew only the baptism of John.
26 And
as he note began to speak openly in the synagogue, Aquila
and Priscilla heard him and took him note home, and expounded
to him the way of God more note perfectly.
27 And as he was note inclined to go into Achaia, the brethren note
wrote to the disciples exhorting them to receive
him: who when he arrived, was very helpful to those
who had believed through grace.
28 For he disputed note vehemently
with the Jews in public, proving by the scriptures,
that Jesus was the note Christ.
