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 that Claudius had commanded all Jews to depart from Rome) and [he] came to them.
3
And because he was of the same occupation, he abode with them, and wrought (for by their occupation they were tent-makers)
4
And he reasoned in the synagogue every sabbath, and persuaded the Jews and the Greeks.
5
And when Silas and Timothy had come from Macedonia, Paul was pressed in spirit, and testified to the Jews, [that] Jesus [was] Christ.
6
And when they opposed themselves, and blasphemed, he shook [his] raiment, and said to them, Your blood [be] upon your own heads: I [am] clean: from henceforth I will go to the Gentiles.
7
And he departed thence, and entered into the house of a certain man named Justus, [one] that worshiped God, whose house joined close 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 the Lord spoke to Paul in the night by a vision, Be not afraid, but speak, and hold not thy peace:
10
For I am with thee, and no man shall lay hands on thee, to hurt thee: for I have many people in this city.
