使徒行傳 18
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
保羅在哥林多傳道
18 這事之後，保羅離開雅典前往哥林多， 2 在那裡認識了一位在本都出生的猶太人亞居拉。由於克勞狄命令所有的猶太人離開羅馬，他最近和妻子百基拉從義大利來到哥林多。保羅拜訪了他們。 3 他們夫婦跟保羅是同行，都以製造帳篷為業，保羅就留下來和他們同住，一起做工。 4 保羅每個安息日都到會堂與猶太人和希臘人辯論，勸導他們信主。
5 西拉和提摩太從馬其頓來了之後，保羅就把全部時間都用來傳道，向猶太人證明耶穌是基督。 6 可是，猶太人反對、毀謗保羅。保羅便抖掉衣服上的灰塵，對他們說：「你們的罪都歸在你們自己頭上，與我無關！從今以後，我要去外族人那裡了。」 7 保羅就離開那裡，來到一位敬畏上帝、名叫提多·猶士都的人家裡，他家就在會堂隔壁。 8 會堂主管基利司布和他全家都信了主，許多哥林多人聽了道後，也信了主，受了洗。
9 一天晚上，主在異象中對保羅說：「不要怕，只管繼續傳講，不要停！ 10 因為我與你同在，沒有人能夠傷害你，在這城裡還有許多屬我的子民。」 11 保羅就在那裡住了一年半，傳授上帝的道。
12 迦流出任亞該亞總督時，猶太人聯合起來攻擊保羅，把他拉上法庭， 13 說：「這個人教唆百姓不按律法敬拜上帝。」
14 保羅剛要開口，迦流就對猶太人說：「你們這些猶太人！如果這事涉及什麼罪行冤情，我當然會處理。 15 但如果只是關於字句、名稱和你們猶太律法的爭論，你們自己去解決吧，我不受理！」 16 隨即把他們趕出了法庭。 17 到了庭外，眾人揪住會堂主管所提尼，把他痛打一頓。迦流卻置之不理。
保羅回到安提阿
18 保羅繼續在哥林多逗留了相當時日，才向弟兄姊妹道別。他和百基拉、亞居拉乘船前往敘利亞。保羅因為許過願，就在堅革哩剃了頭髮。 19 到了以弗所，保羅離開亞居拉夫婦，獨自進入會堂跟猶太人辯論。 20 眾人請保羅多留幾天，保羅婉言謝絕了。 21 他向眾人道別，說：「如果上帝許可，我會回來。」然後上船離開了以弗所。 22 他在凱撒利亞登岸後，先上耶路撒冷去問候教會，再下到安提阿。 23 他在安提阿逗留了一些日子，然後離開那裡，走遍加拉太和弗呂迦地區，到處堅固門徒的信心。
亞波羅放膽傳道
24 那時有一個生於亞歷山大、名叫亞波羅的猶太人來到以弗所。他博學善辯，熟悉聖經。 25 他在主的道上曾受過栽培，心裡火熱，能正確地講解和教導有關耶穌的事，但他只知道約翰的洗禮。 26 他在會堂裡勇敢地講道。百基拉和亞居拉聽了以後，便請他到家裡，將上帝的道更詳細地告訴他。 27 亞波羅有意去亞該亞，以弗所的弟兄姊妹就鼓勵他，並寫信請當地的門徒接待他。亞波羅到了之後，帶給當地蒙恩信主的人很大幫助。 28 他在公眾面前有力地駁倒猶太人，引用聖經證明耶穌就是基督。

保罗在哥林多
18 这之后，保罗离开了雅典，来到了哥林多， 2 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， 3 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。 4 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。
5 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。 6 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。” 7 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。 8 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。
9 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 and went on to Corinth. 2 There he met a Jew named Aquila, born in Pontus, who had recently come from Italy with his wife Priscilla, for Emperor Claudius had ordered all the Jews to leave Rome. Paul went to see them, 3 and stayed and worked with them, because he earned his living by making tents, just as they did. 4 He held discussions in the synagogue every Sabbath, trying to convince both Jews and Greeks.
5 When Silas and Timothy arrived from Macedonia, Paul gave his whole time to preaching the message, testifying to the Jews that Jesus is the Messiah. 6 When they opposed him and said evil things about him, he protested by shaking the dust from his clothes and saying to them, “If you are lost, you yourselves must take the blame for it! I am not responsible. From now on I will go to the Gentiles.” 7 So he left them and went to live in the house of a Gentile named Titius Justus, who worshiped God; his house was next to the synagogue. 8 Crispus, who was the leader of the synagogue, believed in the Lord, together with all his family; and many other people in Corinth heard the message, believed, and were baptized.
9 One night Paul had a vision in which the Lord said to him, “Do not be afraid, but keep on speaking and do not give up, 10 for I am with you. No one will be able to harm you, for many in this city are my people.” 11 So Paul stayed there for a year and a half, teaching the people the word of God.
12 When Gallio was made the Roman governor of Achaia, Jews there got together, seized Paul, and took him into court. 13 “This man,” they said, “is trying to persuade people to worship God in a way that is against the law!”
14 Paul was about to speak when Gallio said to the Jews, “If this were a matter of some evil crime or wrong that has been committed, it would be reasonable for me to be patient with you Jews. 15 But since it is an argument about words and names and your own law, you yourselves must settle it. I will not be the judge of such things!” 16 And he drove them out of the court. 17 They all grabbed Sosthenes, the leader of the synagogue, and beat him in front of the court. But that did not bother Gallio a bit.
The Return to Antioch
18 (A)Paul stayed on with the believers in Corinth for many days, then left them and sailed off with Priscilla and Aquila for Syria. Before sailing from Cenchreae he had his head shaved because of a vow he had taken.[a] 19 They arrived in Ephesus, where Paul left Priscilla and Aquila. He went into the synagogue and held discussions with the Jews. 20 The people asked him to stay longer, but he would not consent. 21 Instead, he told them as he left, “If it is the will of God, I will come back to you.” And so he sailed from Ephesus.
22 When he arrived at Caesarea, he went to Jerusalem and greeted the church, and then went to Antioch. 23 After spending some time there, he left and went through the region of Galatia and Phrygia, strengthening all the believers.
Apollos in Ephesus and Corinth
24 At that time a Jew named Apollos, who had been born in Alexandria, came to Ephesus. He was an eloquent speaker and had a thorough knowledge of the Scriptures. 25 He had been instructed in the Way of the Lord, and with great enthusiasm he proclaimed and taught correctly the facts about Jesus. However, he knew only the baptism of John. 26 He began to speak boldly in the synagogue. When Priscilla and Aquila heard him, they took him home with them and explained to him more correctly the Way of God. 27 Apollos then decided to go to Achaia, so the believers in Ephesus helped him by writing to the believers in Achaia, urging them to welcome him. When he arrived, he was a great help to those who through God's grace had become believers. 28 For with his strong arguments he defeated the Jews in public debates by proving from the Scriptures that Jesus is the Messiah.

Acts 18
World English Bible
18 After these things Paul departed from Athens and came to Corinth. 2 He found a certain Jew named Aquila, a man of Pontus by race, who had recently come from Italy with his wife Priscilla, because Claudius had commanded all the Jews to depart from Rome. He came to them, 3 and because he practiced the same trade, he lived with them and worked, for by trade they were tent makers. 4 He reasoned in the synagogue every Sabbath and persuaded Jews and Greeks.
5 When Silas and Timothy came down from Macedonia, Paul was compelled by the Spirit, testifying to the Jews that Jesus was the Christ. 6 When they opposed him and blasphemed, he shook out his clothing and said to them, “Your blood be on your own heads! I am clean. From now on, I will go to the Gentiles!”
7 He departed there and went into the house of a certain man named Justus, one who worshiped God, whose house was next door to the synagogue. 8 Crispus, the ruler of the synagogue, believed in the Lord with all his house. Many of the Corinthians, when they heard, believed and were baptized. 9 The Lord said to Paul in the night by a vision, “Don’t be afraid, but speak and don’t be silent; 10 for I am with you, and no one will attack you to harm you, for I have many people in this city.”
11 He lived there a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them. 12 But when Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews with one accord rose up against Paul and brought him before the judgment seat, 13 saying, “This man persuades men to worship God contrary to the law.”
14 But when Paul was about to open his mouth, Gallio said to the Jews, “If indeed it were a matter of wrong or of wicked crime, you Jews, it would be reasonable that I should bear with you; 15 but if they are questions about words and names and your own law, look to it yourselves. For I don’t want to be a judge of these matters.” 16 So he drove them from the judgment seat.
17 Then all the Greeks seized Sosthenes, the ruler of the synagogue, and beat him before the judgment seat. Gallio didn’t care about any of these things.
18 Paul, having stayed after this many more days, took his leave of the brothers,[a] and sailed from there for Syria, together with Priscilla and Aquila. He shaved his head in Cenchreae, for he had a vow. 19 He came to Ephesus, and he left them there; but he himself entered into the synagogue and reasoned with the Jews. 20 When they asked him to stay with them a longer time, he declined; 21 but taking his leave of them, he said, “I must by all means keep this coming feast in Jerusalem, but I will return again to you if God wills.” Then he set sail from Ephesus.
22 When he had landed at Caesarea, he went up and greeted the assembly, and went down to Antioch. 23 Having spent some time there, he departed and went through the region of Galatia and Phrygia, in order, establishing all the disciples. 24 Now a certain Jew named Apollos, an Alexandrian by race, an eloquent man, came to Ephesus. He was mighty in the Scriptures. 25 This man had been instructed in the way of the Lord; and being fervent in spirit, he spoke and taught accurately the things concerning Jesus, although he knew only the baptism of John. 26 He began to speak boldly in the synagogue. But when Priscilla and Aquila heard him, they took him aside, and explained to him the way of God more accurately.
27 When he had determined to pass over into Achaia, the brothers encouraged him; and wrote to the disciples to receive him. When he had come, he greatly helped those who had believed through grace; 28 for he powerfully refuted the Jews, publicly showing by the Scriptures that Jesus was the Christ.
