¹After these things Sha’ul [desired] departed from Athens [uncertainty] , and came to Corinth [satiated] ;

²And found a certain Jewish person named Aquila [an eagle] , born in Pontus [the sea] , lately come from Italy [calf-like] , with his wife Priscilla [ancient] ; (because that Claudius [lame] had commanded all Y’hudim (Judeans) [praised of Yah] to depart from Rome [strength] ) and came unto them.

³And because he was of the same craft, he abode with them, and wrought: for by their occupation they were tentmakers.

⁴And he reasoned in the synagogue every Shabbat [rest] , and persuaded the Y’hudim (Judeans) [praised of Yah] and the Greeks [unstable: miry ones] .

⁵And when Silas [woody] and Timothy [honoring God] were come from Macedonia [extended land] , Sha’ul [desired] was pressed in the Spirit [Ruach] , and testified to the Y’hudim (Judeans) [praised of Yah] [that] Yeshua [God is Salvation] [was] Moshiach [Messiah] .

⁶And when they opposed themselves, and blasphemed, he shook [his] clothing, and said unto them, Your blood [be] upon your own heads; I [am] clean: from from this time forth (from now on) I will go unto the Goyim [Gentiles] .

⁷And he departed there, and entered into a certain [man’s] house, named Justus [just] , [one] that worshipped God-The Father, whose house bordered (was adjacent to) to the synagogue.

⁸And Crispus [curled] , the chief ruler of the synagogue, believed on the Lord - Kurios with all his house; and many of the Corinthians [satiated] hearing believed, and were baptized.

⁹Then spoke the Lord - Kurios to Sha’ul [desired] in the night by a vision, Be not afraid, but speak, and hold not youri peace:

¹⁰For I am with youi , and no man shall set on youi to hurt youi : for I have much people in this city.

¹¹And he continued [there] a year and six months, teaching the word of God-The Father among them.

¹²And when Gallio [one who lives on milk] was the deputy of Achaia [trouble] , the Y’hudim (Judeans) [praised of Yah] made insurrection with one accord against Sha’ul [desired] , and brought him to the judgment seat,

¹³Saying, This [fellow] persuades men to worship God-The Father contrary to the law.

¹⁴And when Sha’ul [desired] was now about to open [his] mouth, Gallio [one who lives on milk] said unto the Y’hudim (Judeans) [praised of Yah] , If it were a matter of wrong or wicked lewdness, O [you ] Y’hudim (Judeans) [praised of Yah] , reason would that I should bear with you:

¹⁵But if it be a question of words and names, and [of] your law, look you2f [to it] ; for I will be no judge of such [matters] .

¹⁶And he drove them from the judgment seat.

¹⁷Then all the Greeks [unstable: miry ones] took Sosthenes [saviour of his nation] , the chief ruler of the synagogue, and beat [him] before the judgment seat. And Gallio [one who lives on milk] cared for none of those things.

¹⁸And Sha’ul [desired] [after this] tarried [there] yet a good while, and then took his leave of the brethren, and sailed there into Aram [exalted] (Syria [etymology is uncertain] ) [exalted] , and with him Priscilla [ancient] and Aquila [an eagle] ; having shorn [his] head in Cenchrea [millet] : for he had a vow.

¹⁹And he came to Ephesus [permitted] , and left them there: but he himself entered into the synagogue, and reasoned with the Y’hudim (Judeans) [praised of Yah] .

²⁰When they desired [him] to wait longer time with them, he consented not;

²¹But bade them farewell, saying, I must by all means keep this feast that comes in Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace] : but I will return again unto you, if God-The Father will. And he sailed from Ephesus [permitted] .

²²And when he had landed at Caesarea [severed] , and gone up, and saluted the church, he went down to Antioch [speedy as a chariot] .

²³And after he had spent some time [there] , he departed, and went over [all] the country of Galatia [land of the Galli, Gauls, A Celt] and Phrygia [dry, barren] in order, strengthening all the disciples.

²⁴And a certain Jewish man named Apollos [given by Apollo (etymology uncertain)] , born at Alexandria [one who assists men] , an eloquent man, [and] mighty in the scriptures, came to Ephesus [permitted] .

²⁵This man was instructed in the way of the Lord - Kurios; and being fervent in the Spirit [Ruach] , he spoke and taught diligently the things of the Lord - Kurios, knowing only the baptism of Yochanan [Yehovah has graced] .

²⁶And he began to speak boldly in the synagogue: whom when Aquila [an eagle] and Priscilla [ancient] had heard, they took him unto [them] , and expounded unto him the way of God-The Father more perfectly.

²⁷And when he was disposed to pass into Achaia [trouble] , the brethren wrote, exhorting the disciples to receive him: who, when he was come, helped them much which had believed through grace:

²⁸For he mightily convinced the Y’hudim (Judeans) [praised of Yah] , [and that] publickly, showing by the scriptures that Yeshua [God is Salvation] was Moshiach [Messiah] .
