Acts 18:9-17

9And the Lord said by vision in [the] night to Paul, Fear not, but speak and be not silent;

10because I am with thee, and no one shall set upon thee to injure thee; because I have much people in this city.

11And he remained [there] a year and six months, teaching among them the word of 1God.

12But when Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews with one consent rose against Paul and led him to the judgment-seat,

13saying, This [man] persuades men to worship 2God contrary to the law.

14But as Paul was going to open his mouth, Gallio said to the Jews, If indeed it was some wrong or wicked criminality, O Jews, of reason I should have borne with you;

15but if it be questions about words, and names, and the law that ye have, see to it yourselves; [for] I do not intend to be judge of these things.

16And he drove them from the judgment-seat.

17And having all laid hold on Sosthenes the ruler of the synagogue, they beat him before the judgment-seat. And Gallio troubled himself about none of these things.
