Acts 18:12-17

¹After these things Paul departed from Athens, and came to Corinth;²And found a certain Jew named Aquila, born in Pontus, lately come from Italy, with his wife Priscilla; (because that Claudius had commanded all Jews to depart from Rome:) and came unto them.³And because he was of the same craft, he abode with them, and wrought: for by their occupation they were tentmakers.⁴And he reasoned in the synagogue every sabbath, and persuaded the Jews and the Greeks.⁵And when Silas and Timotheus were come from Macedonia, Paul was pressed in the spirit, and testified to the Jews that Jesus was Christ.⁶And when they opposed themselves, and blasphemed, he shook his raiment, and said unto them, Your blood be upon your own heads; I am clean: from henceforth I will go unto the Gentiles.⁷And he departed thence, and entered into a certain man’s house, named Justus, one that worshipped God, whose house joined hard to the synagogue.⁸And 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.⁹Then spake the Lord to Paul in the night by a vision, Be not afraid, but speak, and hold not thy peace:¹⁰For I am with thee, and no man shall set on thee to hurt thee: for I have much people in this city.¹¹And he continued there a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.¹²And when Gallio was the deputy of Achaia, the Jews made insurrection with one accord against Paul, and brought him to the judgment seat,¹³Saying, This fellow persuadeth men to worship God contrary to the law.¹⁴And when Paul was now about to open his mouth, Gallio said unto the Jews, If it were a matter of wrong or wicked lewdness, O ye Jews, reason would that I should bear with you:¹⁵But if it be a question of words and names, and of your law, look ye to it; for I will be no judge of such matters.¹⁶And he drave them from the judgment seat.¹⁷Then 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.¹⁸And Paul after this tarried there yet a good while, and then took his leave of the brethren, and sailed thence into Syria, and with him Priscilla and Aquila; having shorn his head in Cenchrea: for he had a vow.¹⁹And he came to Ephesus, and left them there: but he himself entered into the synagogue, and reasoned with the Jews.²⁰When they desired him to tarry longer time with them, he consented not;²¹But bade them farewell, saying, I must by all means keep this feast that cometh in Jerusalem: but I will return again unto you, if God will. And he sailed from Ephesus.²²And when he had landed at Caesarea, and gone up, and saluted the church, he went down to Antioch.²³And 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.²⁴And a certain Jew named Apollos, born at Alexandria, an eloquent man, and mighty in the scriptures, came to Ephesus.²⁵This man was instructed in the way of the Lord; and being fervent in the spirit, he spake and taught diligently the things of the Lord, knowing only the baptism of John.²⁶And 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.²⁷And 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 which had believed through grace:²⁸For he mightily convinced the Jews, and that publickly, shewing by the scriptures that Jesus was Christ.

Verse	KJV	BSB	ASV
12	And when Gallio was the deputy of Achaia, the Jews made insurrection with one accord against Paul, and brought him to the judgment seat,	While Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews coordinated an attack on Paul and brought him before the judgment seat.	But when Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews with one accord rose up against Paul and brought him before the judgment-seat,
13	Saying, This fellow persuadeth men to worship God contrary to the law.	“This man is persuading the people to worship God in ways contrary to the law,” they said.	saying, This man persuadeth 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 lewdness, O ye Jews, reason would that I should bear with you:	But just as Paul was about to speak, Gallio told the Jews, “If this matter involved a wrongdoing or vicious crime, O Jews, it would be reasonable for me to hear your complaint.	But when Paul was about to open his mouth, Gallio said unto the Jews, If indeed it were a matter of wrong or of wicked villany, O ye 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 ye to it; for I will be no judge of such matters.	But since it is a dispute about words and names and your own law, settle it yourselves. I refuse to be a judge of such things.”	but if they are questions about words and names and your own law, look to it yourselves; I am not minded to be a judge of these matters.
16	And he drave them from the judgment seat.	And he drove them away from the judgment seat.	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.	At this, the crowd seized Sosthenes the synagogue leader and beat him in front of the judgment seat. But none of this was of concern to Gallio.	And they all laid hold on Sosthenes, the ruler of the synagogue, and beat him before the judgment-seat. And Gallio cared for none of these things.
