44_ACT_18_01 after These things Paul departed from Athens, And came to Corinth;
44_ACT_18_02 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.
44_ACT_18_03 And because he was of the same craft, he abode with them, And wrought: for by their occupation they were tentmakers.
44_ACT_18_04 And he reasoned in the synagogue every sabbath, And persuaded the Jews And the Greeks.
44_ACT_18_05 And when Silas And Timotheus were come from Macedonia, Paul was pressed in the spirit, And testified to the Jews [ that] Jesus [ was] Christ.
44_ACT_18_06 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.
44_ACT_18_07 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.
44_ACT_18_08 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.
44_ACT_18_09 Then spake the LORD to Paul in the night by A vision, be not afraid, but speak, And hold not thy peace:
44_ACT_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.
44_ACT_18_11 And he continued [ there] A year And six months, teaching the word of God among them.
44_ACT_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,
44_ACT_18_13 saying, this [ fellow] persuadeth men to worship God contrary to the law.
44_ACT_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:
44_ACT_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].
44_ACT_18_16 And he drave them from the judgment seat.
44_ACT_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.
44_ACT_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.
44_ACT_18_19 And he came to Ephesus, And left them there: but he himself entered into the synagogue, And reasoned with the Jews.
44_ACT_18_20 when they desired [ him] to tarry longer time with them, he consented not;
44_ACT_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.
44_ACT_18_22 And when he had landed at Caesarea, And gone up, And saluted the church, he went down to Antioch.
44_ACT_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.
44_ACT_18_24 And A certain Jew named Apollos, born at Alexandria, an eloquent man, [ And] mighty in the scriptures, came to Ephesus.
44_ACT_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.
44_ACT_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.
44_ACT_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:
44_ACT_18_28 for he mightily convinced the Jews, [ And that] publicly, showing by the scriptures that Jesus was Christ.
