18:1 After these things Paul departed from Athens, and came
to Corinth;
18:2 And found a certain Jew named Aquila, born in Pontus,
lately come from Italy, with his wife Priscilla; (because that
Claudius had commanded all Jews to depart from Rome:) and came
unto them.
18:3 And because he was of the same craft, he abode with
them, and wrought: for by their occupation they were
tentmakers.
18:4 And he reasoned in the synagogue every sabbath, and
persuaded the Jews and the Greeks.
18:5 And when Silas and Timotheus were come from Macedonia,
Paul was pressed in the spirit, and testified to the Jews
[that] Jesus [was] Christ.
18:6 And when they opposed themselves, and blasphemed, he
shook [his] raiment, and said unto them, Your blood [be] upon
your own heads; I [am] clean: from henceforth I will go unto
the Gentiles.
18:7 And he departed thence, and entered into a certain
[man's] house, named Justus, [one] that worshipped God, whose
house joined hard to the synagogue.
18:8 And Crispus, the chief ruler of the synagogue, believed
on the Lord with all his house; and many of the Corinthians
hearing believed, and were baptized.
18:9 Then spake the Lord to Paul in the night by a vision, Be
not afraid, but speak, and hold not thy peace:
18:10 For I am with thee, and no man shall set on thee to
hurt thee: for I have much people in this city.
18:11 And he continued [there] a year and six months,
teaching the word of God among them.
18:12 And when Gallio was the deputy of Achaia, the Jews made
insurrection with one accord against Paul, and brought him to
the judgment seat,
18:13 Saying, This [fellow] persuadeth men to worship God
contrary to the law.
18:14 And when Paul was now about to open [his] mouth, Gallio
said unto the Jews, If it were a matter of wrong or wicked
lewdness, O [ye] Jews, reason would that I should bear with
you:
18:15 But if it be a question of words and names, and [of]
your law, look ye [to it]; for I will be no judge of such
[matters].
18:16 And he drave them from the judgment seat.
18:17 Then all the Greeks took Sosthenes, the chief ruler of
the synagogue, and beat [him] before the judgment seat. And
Gallio cared for none of those things.
18:18 And Paul [after this] tarried [there] yet a good while,
and then took his leave of the brethren, and sailed thence into
Syria, and with him Priscilla and Aquila; having shorn [his]
head in Cenchrea: for he had a vow.
18:19 And he came to Ephesus, and left them there: but he
himself entered into the synagogue, and reasoned with the Jews.
18:20 When they desired [him] to tarry longer time with them,
he consented not;
18:21 But bade them farewell, saying, I must by all means
keep this feast that cometh in Jerusalem: but I will return
again unto you, if God will. And he sailed from Ephesus.
18:22 And when he had landed at Caesarea, and gone up, and
saluted the church, he went down to Antioch.
18:23 And after he had spent some time [there], he departed,
and went over [all] the country of Galatia and Phrygia in
order, strengthening all the disciples.
18:24 And a certain Jew named Apollos, born at Alexandria, an
eloquent man, [and] mighty in the scriptures, came to Ephesus.
18:25 This man was instructed in the way of the Lord; and
being fervent in the spirit, he spake and taught diligently the
things of the Lord, knowing only the baptism of John.
18:26 And he began to speak boldly in the synagogue: whom
when Aquila and Priscilla had heard, they took him unto [them],
and expounded unto him the way of God more perfectly.
18:27 And when he was disposed to pass into Achaia, the
brethren wrote, exhorting the disciples to receive him: who,
when he was come, helped them much which had believed through
grace:
18:28 For he mightily convinced the Jews, [and that]
publicly, showing by the scriptures that Jesus was Christ.
