1 After that departed Paul fro Athens, and came to Corinthum,
2 and founde a Iewe named Aquila, borne in Potus, which was lately come out of Italy: and his wife Priscilla (because the Emperor Claudius had commaunded all Iewes to departe from Rome) and he drue vnto the.
3 And because he was of the same crafte, he abode with the, and wroughte. Their crafte was to make tentes.
4 And he preached in the synagoge euery Sabbath daye, and exhorted the Iewes and the Grekes.
5 Whan Sylas and Timotheus were come fro Macedonia, Paul was constrayned by the sprete to testifye vnto ye Iewes, that Iesus was very Christ.
6 But wha they sayde cotrary and blasphemed, he shoke his rayment, and sayde vnto them: Youre bloude be vpon youre awne heade. From hence forth I go blamelesse vnto the Gentyles.
7 And he departed thence, and came in to the house of a man named Iustus, which feared God, and his house was nexte vnto the synagoge.
8 Howbeit Crispus the chefe ruler of the synagoge, beleued on ye LORDE with all his housholde. And many of the Corinthians that gaue audience, beleued, and were baptysed.
9 The LORDE spake vnto Paul by a vision in ye nighte: Be not afrayed, but speake, and holde not thy peace,
10 for I am with the: and no man shal inuade the that shal hurte the, for I haue moch people in this cite.
11 He contynued there a yeare and sixe monethes, and taught them the worde of God.
12 But whan Gallio was ruler of the countre of Achaia, the Iewes made insurreccion wt one acorde agaynst Paul, & broughte him before the iudgment seate,
13 and sayde: This felowe counceleth men to worshipe God cotrary to the lawe.
14 Whan Paul was aboute to open his mouth, Gallio sayde vnto ye Iewes: Yf it were a matter of wronge or an euell dede (O ye Iewes) reason wolde that I shulde heare you:
15 but yf it be a question of wordes, and of names, and of ye lawe amoge you, loke ye to it youre selues, I thinke not to be iudge there ouer.
16 And he droue them from the iudgmet seate.
17 Then all the Grekes toke Sosthenes the ruler of the Sinagoge, and smote him before the iudgment seate. And Gallio cared for none of tho thinges.
