1 And after this Sha’ul left Athĕnai and went to Korinthos.
2 And he found a certain Yahuḏi named Aqulas, born in Pontus, who had recently come from Italia with his wife Priskilla – because Klaudius had commanded all the Yahuḏim to leave Rome – and he came to them.
3 And because he was of the same trade, he stayed with them and was working, for they were tentmakers by trade.
4 And he was reasoning in the congregation every Shabbath, and won over both Yahuḏim and Yawanites.
5 And when Sila and Timotheos came down from Makedonia, Sha’ul was pressed by the Ruaḥ, and earnestly witnessed to the Yahuḏim that 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤔𐤏 is ha’Mashiaḥ.
6 However, when they resisted and blasphemed, he shook his garments and said to them, “Your blood is upon your head, I am clean. From now on I shall go to the gentiles.”
7 And having left there he came to the house of a certain man named Yustos, who worshipped Elohim, whose house was next to the congregation.
8 And Krispus, the ruler of the congregation, believed in the Aḏon with all his household. And many of the Korinthians, hearing, believed and were immersed.
9 And the Aḏon spoke to Sha’ul in the night by a vision, “Do not be afraid, but speak, and do not be silent,
10 because I am with you, and no one shall attack you to do you evil, because I have much people in this city.”
11 And he remained a year and six months, teaching the Word of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 among them.
12 And when Gallion was proconsul of Aḵaia, the Yahuḏim with one mind rose up against Sha’ul and brought him to the judgment seat,
13 saying, “This one seduces men to worship Elohim contrary to the Torah.”
14 And as Sha’ul was about to open his mouth, Gallion said to the Yahuḏim, “If it were a matter of wrongdoing or wicked recklessness, O Yahuḏim, there would be reason why I should bear with you.
15 “But if it is a question of words and names and a law which is among you, see to it yourselves, for I do not want to be a judge of these.”
16 And he drove them away from the judgment seat.
17 And all the Yawanites took Sosthenĕs, the ruler of the congregation, and beat him before the judgment seat. But Gallion showed no concern whatever.
18 And Sha’ul, having stayed several days more, having taken leave of the brothers, was sailing for Suria, and Priskilla and Aqulas were with him, having shaved his hair at Kengḵreai, for he had taken a vow.
19 And he came to Ephesos, and left them there, but he himself went into the congregation and reasoned with the Yahuḏim.
20 And when they asked him to stay a longer time with them, he declined,
21 but took leave of them, saying, “I have to keep this coming Festival in Yerushalayim by all means, but I shall come back to you, Elohim desiring so.” And he sailed from Ephesos.
22 And having come to Kaisereia, going up and greeting the assembly, he went down to Antioḵeia.
23 And having spent some time there, he went forth, passing through the country of Galatia and on through Phrugia, strengthening all the talmidim.
24 And a certain Yahuḏi named Apollos, born at Alexandria, a learned man and mighty in the Scriptures, came to Ephesos.
25 This one had been instructed in the Way of the Aḏon. And being fervent in spirit, he was speaking and teaching that about the Aḏon exactly, though he knew only the immersion of Yoḥanan.
26 And he began to speak boldly in the congregation. And when Aqulas and Priskilla heard him, they took him aside and explained to him the Way of Elohim more exactly.
27 And when he intended to pass through to Aḵaia, the brothers, having encouraged him, wrote to the talmidim to receive him, who, having arrived, greatly helped those who believed through favour,
28 for with power he refuted the Yahuḏim publicly, showing from the Scriptures that 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤔𐤏 is ha’Mashiaḥ.
