12 And when Gal’li-o was proconsul of Acha’ia, the Jews made insurrection with one accord against Paul; and they brought him to the judgment seat, 13 Saying, This fellow persuades men to worship God contrary to the law. 14 And as Paul was desirous to open his mouth and speak, Gal’li-o said to the Jews, If your accusations were based on something criminal, fraudulent, or vicious, I would welcome you properly, O Jews: 15 But if they are a mere question of words and names and concerning your law, you can settle it better among yourselves; for I do not wish to be a judge of such matters. 16 And he drove them from his judgment seat. 17 Then the pagans seized Sos’the-nes, the priest of the synagogue, and beat him before the judgment seat. And Gal’li-o disregarded these things. Acts 18:12-17, Lamsa Bible. Public domain.
