Kisah Para Rasul 18:2-17

18:2 There he¹ found² a Jew named Aquila,³ a native of Pontus,⁴ who had recently come from Italy with his wife Priscilla, because Claudius⁵ had ordered all the Jews to depart from⁶ Rome.⁷ Paul approached⁸ them, 18:3 and because he worked at the same trade, he stayed with them and worked with them⁹ (for they were tentmakers¹⁰ by trade).¹¹ 18:4 He addressed¹² both Jews and Greeks in the synagogue¹³ every Sabbath, attempting to persuade¹⁴ them.

18:5 Now when Silas and Timothy arrived¹⁵ from Macedonia,¹⁶ Paul became wholly absorbed with proclaiming¹⁷ the word, testifying¹⁸ to the Jews that Jesus was the Christ.¹⁹ 18:6 When they opposed him²⁰ and reviled him,²¹ he protested by shaking out his clothes²² and said to them, “Your blood²³ be on your own heads! I am guiltless!²⁴ From now on I will go to the Gentiles!” 18:7 Then Paul²⁵ left²⁶ the synagogue²⁷ and went to the house of a person named Titius Justus, a Gentile who worshiped God,²⁸ whose house was next door to the synagogue. 18:8 Crispus, the president of the synagogue,²⁹ believed in the Lord together with his entire household, and many of the Corinthians who heard about it³⁰ believed and were baptized. 18:9 The Lord said to Paul by a vision³¹ in the night,³² “Do not be afraid,³³ but speak and do not be silent, 18:10 because I am with you, and no one will assault³⁴ you to harm³⁵ you, because I have many people in this city.” 18:11 So he stayed there³⁶ a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.³⁷

Paul Before the Proconsul Gallio

18:12 Now while Gallio³⁸ was proconsul³⁹ of Achaia,⁴⁰ the Jews attacked Paul together⁴¹ and brought him before the judgment seat,⁴² 18:13 saying, “This man is persuading⁴³ people to worship God in a way contrary to⁴⁴ the law!” 18:14 But just as Paul was about to speak,⁴⁵ Gallio said to the Jews, “If it were a matter of some crime or serious piece of villainy,⁴⁶ I would have been justified in accepting the complaint⁴⁷ of you Jews,⁴⁸ 18:15 but since it concerns points of disagreement⁴⁹ about words and names and your own law, settle⁵⁰ it yourselves. I will not be⁵¹ a judge of these things!” 18:16 Then he had them forced away⁵² from the judgment seat.⁵³ 18:17 So they all seized Sosthenes, the president of the synagogue,⁵⁴ and began to beat⁵⁵ him in front of the judgment seat.⁵⁶ Yet none of these things were of any concern⁵⁷ to Gallio.

Kisah Para Rasul 18:26

18:26 He began to speak out fearlessly⁵⁸ in the synagogue,⁵⁹ but when Priscilla and Aquila⁶⁰ heard him, they took him aside⁶¹ and explained the way of God to him more accurately.
