After these things Paul departed from Athens, and came to aCorinth; 2 And found a certain Jew named bAquila, born in cPontus, lately come from Italy, with his wife bPriscilla; (because that dClaudius had commanded all Jews to depart from Rome:) and came unto them. 3 And because he was of the same craft, he abode with them, and ewrought: for by their occupation they were tentmakers. 4 And he freasoned gin the synagogue every sabbath, and persuaded the Jews and the Greeks. 5 And hwhen Silas and Timotheus were come from iMacedonia, Paul was jpressed in the spirit, and ktestified to the Jews that lJesus ||was Christ. 6 And when they opposed themselves, and mblasphemed, nhe shook his raiment, and said unto them, oYour blood be upon your own heads; pI am clean: qfrom henceforth I will go unto the Gentiles. 7 And he departed thence, and entered into a certain man’s house, named Justus, rone that worshipped God, whose house joined hard to the synagogue. 8 And sCrispus, the tchief ruler of the synagogue, believed on the Lord uwith all his house; and many of athe Corinthians hearing believed, and were baptized. 9 Then xspake the Lord to Paul in the night by ya vision, Be not afraid, but speak, and hold not thy peace: 10 For zI am with thee, and no man shall set on thee to hurt thee: for I have much people in this city. 11 And he †continued there a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.

12 *And when Gallio was the adeputy of bAchaia, the Jews made insurrection with one accord against Paul, and cbrought him to dthe judgment seat, 13 Saying, This fellow persuadeth men to worship God contrary to ethe law. 14 And when Paul was now about to fopen his mouth, Gallio said unto the Jews, If it were a matter of wrong or wicked glewdness, O ye Jews, reason would that I should hbear with you: 15 iBut if it be a question of words and names, and of eyour law, look ye to it; for I will be no judge of such matters. 16 And he drave them from dthe judgment seat. 17 Then all the Greeks took kSosthenes, the lchief ruler of the synagogue, and beat him before dthe judgment seat. And Gallio cared for none of those things.
