Acts 18:9-17

9And the LordG2962 saidG3004 to PaulG3972 by 1a visionG3705 at nightG3571, “Do not beG5399 afraidG5399 any longer, but go on speakingG2980 and do not be silentG4623; 10for I amG1510 with you, and noG3762 oneG3762 will attackG2007 you to harmG2559 you, for I have manyG4183 peopleG2992 in thisG3778 cityG4172.” 11And he settledG2523 there for a yearG1763 and sixG1803 monthsG3376, teachingG1321 the wordG3056 of GodG2316 amongG1722 them.

12But while GallioG1058 was 2proconsulG446 of 3AchaiaG882, 4the JewsG2453 roseG2721 upG2721 togetherG3661 againstG2721 PaulG3972 and broughtG71 him beforeG1909 5the 6judgmentG968 seatG968, 13sayingG3004, “ThisG3778 manG3778 is incitingG374 the peopleG444 to worshipG4576 GodG2316 contraryG3844 to 7the 8lawG3551.” 14But when PaulG3972 wasG3195 aboutG3195 toG3195 9openG455 his mouthG4750, GallioG1058 saidG3004 to the JewsG2453, “IfG1487 it were a matter of someG5100 crimeG92 orG2228 viciousG4190, unscrupulousG4467 actG4467, OG5599 JewsG2453, it would be reasonableG3056 for me to putG430 upG430 with you; 15but ifG1487 there are 1011questionsG2213 aboutG4012 12teachingG3056 and 13personsG3686 and your own lawG3551, seeG3708 toG3708 it yourselvesG846; I amG1014 unwillingG3756G1014 to be a judgeG2923 of theseG3778 matters.” 16And he droveG556 them awayG556 from 14the 15judgmentG968 seatG968. 17But they allG3956 tookG1949 holdG1949 of 16SosthenesG4988, 17the leaderG752 ofG752 theG752 synagogueG752, and began beatingG5180 him in frontG1715 of 18the judgmentG968 seatG968. And yet GallioG1058 was not concernedG3199 aboutG3199 anyG3762 of theseG3778 thingsG3778.
