Paul Begins Ministry in Corinth

1

After these things he departed from Athens, and came to Corinth.

2

And he found a certain Jew named Aquila, a man of Pontus by race, lately come from Italy, with his wife Priscilla, because Claudius had commanded all the Jews to depart from Rome: and he came unto them;

3

and because he was of the same trade, he abode with them, and they wrought; for by their trade they were tentmakers.

4

And he reasoned in the synagogue every sabbath, and persuaded Jews and Greeks.

5

But when Silas and Timothy came down from Macedonia, Paul was constrained by the word, testifying to the Jews that Jesus was the Christ.

6

And when they opposed themselves and blasphemed, he shook out his raiment and said unto them, Your blood be upon your own heads; I am clean: from henceforth I will go unto the Gentiles.

7

And he departed thence, and went into the house of a certain man named Titus Justus, one that worshipped God, whose house joined hard to the synagogue.

8

And Crispus, the ruler of the synagogue, believed in the Lord with all his house; and many of the Corinthians hearing believed, and were baptized.

9

And the Lord said unto 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 set on thee to harm thee: for I have much people in this city.

11

And he dwelt there a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.
