保罗在哥林多

18 这之后,保罗离开了雅典,来到了哥林多, 在那里,他遇见一个名叫亚居拉的犹太人。亚居拉出生在本都,最近和妻子、百基拉从意大利来。他们离开意大利的原因,是因为克劳迪 [a]命令所有的犹太人离开罗马。保罗去见他们, 因为他和他们是同行,保罗和他们呆在一起,与他们一同工作,他们都是受过训练以制做帐篷为生的。 每逢安息日,保罗都去会堂与人们辩论,争取说服犹太人和非犹太人。

西拉和提摩太从马其顿来到哥林多来见保罗,这之后,保罗把所有的时间都用来传道,向犹太人证明耶稣是基督。 当他们反对和恶语攻击他时,他就抖掉衣服上的尘土(警告),并对他们说∶“如果你们毁灭,必归咎于你们自己。我已经做了我所能做的事情了!从现在起,我要到外族人那里去了。” 他离开那里,来到一个叫提多犹士都的家里,此人是上帝的崇拜者,他的房子就在会堂隔壁。 会堂的管事基利司布和他全家都信仰了主。许多哥林多人听了保罗的话后,也相信了,并受了洗礼。

一天夜里,主在梦中对保罗说∶“不要害怕,只管讲,不要沉默, 10 因为我和你同在。没有人会攻击和伤害你,因为我的许多子民在这个城市里。” 11 所以,保罗在那里住了一年半,在人们中间教导上帝的信息。

保罗被带到迦流面前

12 当迦流任亚该亚总督时,犹太人一起来反对保罗,他们把保罗带到法庭, 13 说:这个人教授人们崇拜上帝, 在某种程度上,触犯了我们的律法。

14 保罗正要讲话时,迦流对犹太人说∶“如果你们起诉他有些错误行为,或有严重的罪过,我听你们的控告是合适的, 15 但是,你们犹太人所说的,仅是对一些话、名称以及针对你们的律法的一些争议,那么你们自己去解决吧,我不审理这种事情。” 16 于是,他把他们赶出了法庭。

17 他们都拽住会堂管事所提尼,在法庭前面殴打他,但是,迦流对此丝毫也不过问。

保罗返回安提阿

18 保罗又在那里住了很多天,然后离开兄弟们启航到叙利亚去了,和他同行的还有百基拉和亚居拉。出发之前,保罗在坚革哩剃了头,因为他曾发过誓。 19 他们到达了以弗所,在那里保罗离开了百基拉和亚居拉。保罗来到会堂与犹太人讨论, 20 他们请求他在那里再多住些日子,保罗没有同意。 21 但是,当他离开时,他说∶“如果上帝要我再回到你们这里,我会回来的。”然后,保罗从以弗所启航出发了。

22 他到达该撒利亚后,便到耶路撒冷去探望教会,然后又去了安提阿。 23 在那里,保罗住了一段时间,然后离开了。他走遍了加拉太和弗吕家地区,加强了所有门徒的信仰。

亚波罗在以弗所和哥林多

24 有个名叫亚波罗的犹太人,来到以弗所。他出生在亚力山太,是个有学问的人,对《经》文了如指掌。 25 他在主之道中,受到过指点,他充满激情地宣讲和准确地教导关于耶稣的事情,尽管他只知道约翰的洗礼。 26 他开始在会堂里大胆地讲。百基拉和亚居拉听到他后,就把他带到一边,向他更准确地讲解了上帝之道。

27 当亚波罗要去亚该亚时,兄弟们都鼓励他,他们给那里的门徒写信,请他们接待他。他到达那里后,对那些因为上帝的恩典已信仰耶稣的人,是个极大的帮助。 28 在公开的辩论中,他有力地驳倒了犹太人,根据《经》来证明耶稣就是基督。

In Corinth

18 After this, Paul left Athens(A) and went to Corinth.(B) There he met a Jew named Aquila, a native of Pontus, who had recently come from Italy with his wife Priscilla,(C) because Claudius(D) had ordered all Jews to leave Rome. Paul went to see them, and because he was a tentmaker as they were, he stayed and worked with them.(E) Every Sabbath(F) he reasoned in the synagogue,(G) trying to persuade Jews and Greeks.

When Silas(H) and Timothy(I) came from Macedonia,(J) Paul devoted himself exclusively to preaching, testifying to the Jews that Jesus was the Messiah.(K) But when they opposed Paul and became abusive,(L) he shook out his clothes in protest(M) and said to them, “Your blood be on your own heads!(N) I am innocent of it.(O) From now on I will go to the Gentiles.”(P)

Then Paul left the synagogue and went next door to the house of Titius Justus, a worshiper of God.(Q) Crispus,(R) the synagogue leader,(S) and his entire household(T) believed in the Lord; and many of the Corinthians who heard Paul believed and were baptized.

One night the Lord spoke to Paul in a vision:(U) “Do not be afraid;(V) keep on speaking, do not be silent. 10 For I am with you,(W) and no one is going to attack and harm you, because I have many people in this city.” 11 So Paul stayed in Corinth for a year and a half, teaching them the word of God.(X)

12 While Gallio was proconsul(Y) of Achaia,(Z) the Jews of Corinth made a united attack on Paul and brought him to the place of judgment. 13 “This man,” they charged, “is persuading the people to worship God in ways contrary to the law.”

14 Just as Paul was about to speak, Gallio said to them, “If you Jews were making a complaint about some misdemeanor or serious crime, it would be reasonable for me to listen to you. 15 But since it involves questions about words and names and your own law(AA)—settle the matter yourselves. I will not be a judge of such things.” 16 So he drove them off. 17 Then the crowd there turned on Sosthenes(AB) the synagogue leader(AC) and beat him in front of the proconsul; and Gallio showed no concern whatever.

Priscilla, Aquila and Apollos

18 Paul stayed on in Corinth for some time. Then he left the brothers and sisters(AD) and sailed for Syria,(AE) accompanied by Priscilla and Aquila.(AF) Before he sailed, he had his hair cut off at Cenchreae(AG) because of a vow he had taken.(AH) 19 They arrived at Ephesus,(AI) where Paul left Priscilla and Aquila. He himself went into the synagogue and reasoned with the Jews. 20 When they asked him to spend more time with them, he declined. 21 But as he left, he promised, “I will come back if it is God’s will.”(AJ) Then he set sail from Ephesus. 22 When he landed at Caesarea,(AK) he went up to Jerusalem and greeted the church and then went down to Antioch.(AL)

23 After spending some time in Antioch, Paul set out from there and traveled from place to place throughout the region of Galatia(AM) and Phrygia,(AN) strengthening all the disciples.(AO)

24 Meanwhile a Jew named Apollos,(AP) a native of Alexandria, came to Ephesus.(AQ) He was a learned man, with a thorough knowledge of the Scriptures. 25 He had been instructed in the way of the Lord, and he spoke with great fervor[a](AR) and taught about Jesus accurately, though he knew only the baptism of John.(AS) 26 He began to speak boldly in the synagogue. When Priscilla and Aquila(AT) heard him, they invited him to their home and explained to him the way of God more adequately.

27 When Apollos wanted to go to Achaia,(AU) the brothers and sisters(AV) encouraged him and wrote to the disciples there to welcome him. When he arrived, he was a great help to those who by grace had believed. 28 For he vigorously refuted his Jewish opponents in public debate, proving from the Scriptures(AW) that Jesus was the Messiah.(AX)

  1. Acts 18:25 Or with fervor in the Spirit

18 After these things Paul departed from Athens, and came to Corinth;

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.

And because he was of the same craft, he abode with them, and wrought: for by their occupation they were tentmakers.

And he reasoned in the synagogue every sabbath, and persuaded the Jews and the Greeks.

And when Silas and Timotheus were come from Macedonia, Paul was pressed in the spirit, and testified to the Jews that Jesus was Christ.

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.

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.

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.

Then spake the Lord to Paul in the night by a vision, Be not afraid, but speak, and hold not thy peace:

10 For I 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 deputy of Achaia, the Jews made insurrection with one accord against Paul, and brought him to the judgment seat,

13 Saying, This fellow persuadeth men to worship God contrary to the law.

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:

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.

16 And he drave them from the judgment seat.

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 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.

19 And he came to Ephesus, and left them there: but he himself entered into the synagogue, and reasoned with the Jews.

20 When they desired him to tarry longer time with them, he consented not;

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.

22 And when he had landed at Caesarea, and gone up, and saluted the church, he went down to Antioch.

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.

24 And a certain Jew named Apollos, born at Alexandria, an eloquent man, and mighty in the scriptures, came to Ephesus.

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.

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.

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:

28 For he mightily convinced the Jews, and that publicly, shewing by the scriptures that Jesus was Christ.
