Acts 18:1-10 ▼

1 After these things having departed from Athens, he came to Corinth.

2 And having found a certain Jew by name Aquila, a Pontic by race, having recently come from Italy, and Priscilla his wife; because Claudius had commanded all the Jews to depart from Rome: he came to them:

3 and because they were of the same craft, abode with them, and they labored: for they were tentmakers by trade.

4 And he spoke in the synagogue every Sabbath, and persuaded both Jews and Greeks.

5 And when both Silas and Timothy came down from Macedonia, Paul was straitened with the word, witnessing to the Jews that Jesus is the Christ.

6 And they opposing, and blaspheming, shaking his garments, he said to them, Your blood be upon your own head; I am pure: from now I will go to the Gentiles.

7 And having departed thence, he came into the house of a certain Titus, Justus by name, worshiping God, whose house is joined to the synagogue.

8 But 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.

9 And the Lord spoke to Paul in the night through a vision, Fear not, but speak, and be not silent:

10 because I am with thee, and no man shall assault thee to hurt thee: because there is much people to me in this city.
