Acts 18:1-11
1After this Paul left Athens and went to Corinth.
2And he found a Jew named Aquila, a native of Pontus, recently come from Italy with his wife Priscilla, because Claudius had commanded all the Jews to leave Rome. And he went to see them,
3and because he was of the same trade he stayed with them and worked, for they were tentmakers by trade.
4And he reasoned in the synagogue every Sabbath, and tried to persuade Jews and Greeks.
5When Silas and Timothy arrived from Macedonia, Paul was occupied with the word, testifying to the Jews that the Christ was Jesus.
6And when they opposed and reviled him, he shook out his garments and said to them, “Your blood be on your own heads! I am innocent. From now on I will go to the Gentiles.”
7And he left there and went to the house of a man named Titius Justus, a worshiper of God. His house was next door to the synagogue.
8Crispus, the ruler of the synagogue, believed in the Lord, together with his entire household. And many of the Corinthians hearing Paul believed and were baptized.
9And the Lord said to Paul one night in a vision, “Do not be afraid, but go on speaking and do not be silent,
10for I am with you, and no one will attack you to harm you, for I have many in this city who are my people.”
11And he stayed a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.
