RNKJV - Acts - 18

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 Yahushua was the Messiah.

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 יהוה, whose house joined hard to the synagogue.

18:8  And Crispus, the chief ruler of the synagogue, believed on Yahushua with all his house; and many of the Corinthians hearing believed, and were baptized.

18:9  Then spake Yahushua 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 יהוה 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 Elohim 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 יהוה will. And he sailed from Ephesus.

18:22  And when he had landed at Caesarea, and gone up, and saluted the assembly, 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 יהוה; and being fervent in the spirit, he spake and taught diligently the things of יהוה, 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 יהוה 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 favour:

18:28  For he mightily convinced the Jews, and that publickly, shewing by the scriptures that Yahushua was the Messiah.
