Paul’s Ministry in Corinth
1   After these things Paul  departed  from Athens, and came to Corinth;
2   And found a certain Jew named Aquila, born in Pontus, lately come from Italy, with his wife Priscilla; (because Claudius had commanded all Jews  to  depart  from  Rome:)  and  came  unto them.
3   And because he was of the same craft, he abode with them, and worked: for by their occupation they were tentmakers.
4   And he reasoned in the synagogue every sabbath, and persuaded the Jews and the Greeks.
5   And when Silas and Timothy were come from Macedonia, Paul was pressed in the spirit, and testified to the Jews that Jesus was the Christ.
6   And when they opposed themselves, and blasphemed, he shook his clothes, and said unto them, Your blood be upon your own heads; I am clean: from henceforth I will go unto the Gentiles.
7   And he departed from there, and entered into a certain man's house, named Justus, one that worshiped God, whose house was next door to the synagogue.
8   And 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   Then spoke the Lord to Paul in the night by a vision, Be not afraid, but speak, and hold not your peace:
10   For I am with you, and no man shall set on you to hurt you: for I have many people in this city.
11   And he continued there a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.
12   And when Gallio was the deputy of Achaia, the  Jews  made  an  attack  with  one  accord against Paul, and brought him to the judgment seat,
13   Saying, This fellow persuades men to worship God contrary to the law.
14   And when Paul was now about to open his mouth, Gallio said unto the Jews, If it were a matter of wrong or wicked crime, O you Jews, reason would that I should bear with you:
15   But if it be a question of words and names, and of your law, look you to it; for I will be no judge of such matters.
16   And he drove them from the judgment seat.
17   Then all the Greeks took Sosthenes, the chief  ruler  of  the  synagogue,  and  beat  him before the judgment seat. And Gallio cared for none of those things.

Paul Returns to Antioch
18   And Paul after this tarried there yet a good while, and then took his leave of the brethren, and sailed from there into Syria, and with him Priscilla and Aquila; having shaved his head in Cenchrea: for he had a vow.
19   And he came to Ephesus, and left them there: but he himself entered into the synagogue, and reasoned with the Jews.
20   When they desired him to tarry a longer time with them, he consented not;
21   But bade them farewell, saying, I must by all means keep this feast that comes in Jerusalem: but I will return again unto you, if God wills. And he sailed from Ephesus.
22   And when he had landed at Caesarea, having gone up, and greeted the church, he went down to Antioch.

Paul Begins His Third Missionary Journey
23   And after he had spent some time there, he departed,  and  went  over  all  the  country  of Galatia and Phrygia in order, strengthening all the disciples.

The Ministry of Apollos
24   And a certain Jew named Apollos, born at Alexandria, an eloquent man, and mighty in the scriptures, came to Ephesus.
25   This man was instructed in the way of the Lord; and being fervent in the spirit, he spoke and taught diligently the things of the Lord, knowing only the baptism of John.
26   And he began to speak boldly in the synagogue: whom when Aquila and Priscilla had heard, they took him unto them, and expounded unto him the way of God more perfectly.
27   And when he was disposed to pass into Achaia,   the   brethren   wrote,   exhorting   the disciples  to  receive  him:  who,  when  he  was come, helped them much who had believed through grace:
28   For he mightily convinced the Jews, and that  publicly,  showing  by  the  scriptures  that Jesus was the Christ.
