Acts 18:12-16 ▼

12 While Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jewish leaders gathered together, attacked Paul, and brought him before the judge's seat.

13 They said, |This man is persuading people to worship God in ways that are contrary to the Law.|

14 Paul was about to speak when Gallio admonished the Jewish leaders, |If there were some misdemeanor or crime involved, it would be reasonable to put up with you Jews.

15 But since it is a question about words, names, and your own Law, you will have to take care of that yourselves. I refuse to be a judge in these matters.|

16 So he drove them away from the judge's seat.
