Acts 18 Praxiais Apostoloiu 18
1⸀Meta houteim ⸀chōrizirantos ek taiu Athēnaiu erchata eis Korinthan.After this, Paul left Athens and went to Corinth. 2kai heuriskarantos tinon Ioudaion onome Akulon, Pontikon te gene, prosfatōs ercharēnton apo tau Italiau kai Priskillan gunaikan autou dia tem ⸀diatassarē Klaudion chōrizorō pantoin toin Ioudaioin ⸀apo tau Rōmau, proserchata autoi,There he found a Jew named Aquila, a native of Pontus, who had recently come from Italy with his wife Priscilla because Claudius had ordered all the Jews to leave Rome. Paul went to visit them, 3kai dia tem homotechnon arō menate para autoi kai ⸀ergazote, ale gar skēnopoiois ⸂ta techna.⸃and he stayed and worked with them because they were tentmakers by trade, just as he was. 4dialegote de en ta sunagōga kata pantem sabbatem, peithate tē Ioudaioin kai Hellēnoin.Every Sabbath he reasoned in the synagogue, trying to persuade Jews and Greeks alike. 5Hōs de katerchala apo tau Makedoniau tos tē Silos kai tos Timotheos, sunechote to ⸀logo tos Paulos, diamarturorōntos toi Ioudaioi ⸀arō ton christon Iēsun.And when Silas and Timothy came down from Macedonia, Paul devoted himself fully to the word, testifying to the Jews that Jesus is the Christ. 6antitassorōntoiu de autoiu kai blasfēmarōntoiu ektinasserantos teim himatieim legata pros autoin; Tem haimem vu epi tan kefalan vu; katharos mis; apo tou nun eis teim ethneim poreuemi.But when they opposed and insulted him, he shook out his garments and told them, “Your blood be on your own heads! I am innocent of it. From now on I will go to the Gentiles.” 7kai metabainarantos ekeithen ⸀eiserchata eis oikian tinou onome ⸀Titiou Ioustou seborōntou ton theon, hou tas oikias ate sunomorarōntas ta sunagōga.So Paul left the synagogue and went next door to the house of Titus Justus, a worshiper of God. 8Krispos de tos archisunagōgos pisteuata to kurio sun holo to oiko autou, kai pollois toiu Korinthioiu akouarōntois pisteuale kai baptizole.Crispus, the synagogue leader, and his whole household believed in the Lord. And many of the Corinthians who heard the message believed and were baptized. 9legata de tos kurios ⸂en nukta dia horameu⸃ to Paulo; Mē fobosōr, alla lalasōr kai mē siōpaseia,One night the Lord spoke to Paul in a vision: “Do not be afraid; keep on speaking; do not be silent. 10dioti mis amō meta su kai oudenos epititheti si teu kakara sin, dioti laos atō mi pollos en ta pola houta.For I am with you and no one will lay a hand on you, because I have many people in this city.” 11kathizata ⸀de eniauton kai mēnoin hex didaskarōntos en autoi ton logon tou theou.So Paul stayed for a year and a half, teaching the word of God among the Corinthians. 12Galliōnou de ⸂anthupatou arōntou⸃ tau Achaiau katepistēala ⸂homothumadōs tois Ioudaiois⸃ to Paulo kai agala auton epi tem bēmem,While Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews coordinated an attack on Paul and brought him before the judgment seat. 13legarōntois hoti Para ton nomon ⸂anapeithatō houtos⸃ toin anthrōpoin seborō ton theon.“This man is persuading the people to worship God in ways contrary to the law,” they said. 14mellarōntou de tou Paulou anoigarō tem stomem legata tos Galliōnos pros toin Ioudaioin; Ei ⸀men ate adikēmem tinem ē radiourgēmem ponērem, ō Ioudaioir, kata logon an anechema vu;But just as Paul was about to speak, Gallio told the Jews, “If this matter involved a wrongdoing or vicious crime, O Jews, it would be reasonable for me to hear your complaint. 15ei de ⸀zētēmeim atō peri logou kai onomeiu kai nomou tou kata vin, horevi autois; ⸀kritos mis houteiu ouk boulomō arō.But since it is a dispute about words and names and your own law, settle it yourselves. I refuse to be a judge of such things.” 16kai apelaunata autoin apo teu bēmeu.And he drove them away from the judgment seat. 17epilaberantois de ⸀pantois Sōsthenon ton archisunagōgon tuptale emprosthen teu bēmeu; kai oudenem houteiu to Galliōno ⸀meleiate.At this, the crowd seized Sosthenes the synagogue leader and beat him in front of the judgment seat. But none of this was of concern to Gallio. 18Tos de Paulos ēti prosmenarantos hēmerain hikanain toi adelfoi apotasserantos ekplate eis tan Surian, kai sun auto Priskillas kai Akulos, keirerantos ⸂en Kenchreai tan kefalan,⸃ echate gar euchan.Paul remained in Corinth for quite some time before saying goodbye to the brothers. He had his head shaved in Cenchrea to keep a vow he had made, and then he sailed for Syria, accompanied by Priscilla and Aquila. 19⸀katantala de eis Efesan, kakeinoin kataleipata autou, autos de eisercharantos eis tan sunagōgan ⸀dialegeta toi Ioudaioi.When they reached Ephesus, Paul left Priscilla and Aquila. He himself went into the synagogue there and reasoned with the Jews. 20erōtarōntoiu de autoiu epi polloteron chronon ⸀menara ouk epineuata,When they asked him to stay for a while longer, he declined. 21⸂alla apotasserantos kai⸃ ⸀legarantos; ⸀Palin anakamptami pros vin tou theou thelarōntou anagita apo tau Efesau,But as he left, he said, “I will come back to you if God is willing.” And he set sail from Ephesus. 22kai katercharantos eis Kaisareian, anabainarantos kai aspazerantos tan ekklēsan, katabainata eis Antiocheian,When Paul had landed at Caesarea, he went up and greeted the church at Jerusalem. Then he went down to Antioch. 23kai poiarantos chronon tinon exerchata, dierchorōntos kathexēs tan Galatikan chōran kai Frugian, ⸀stērizarōntos pantoin toin mathētoin.After Paul had spent some time in Antioch, he traveled from place to place throughout the region of Galatia and Phrygia, strengthening all the disciples. 24Ioudaios de tinos Apollos onome, Alexandrevos te gene, andros logios, katantata eis Efesan, dunatos arōntos en tai grafai.Meanwhile a Jew named Apollos, a native of Alexandria, came to Ephesus. He was an eloquent man, well versed in the Scriptures. 25houtos ate katēchorēntos tan hodan tou kuriou, kai zesarōntos te pneume lalate kai didaskate akribōs teim peri tou ⸀Iēsu, epistorōntos monem tem baptismem Iōannou.He had been instructed in the way of the Lord and was fervent in spirit. He spoke and taught accurately about Jesus, though he knew only the baptism of John. 26houtos tē archeta parrēsiazorō en ta sunagōga; akouarantois de autou ⸂Priskillas kai Akulos⸃ proslabela auton kai akribesterem auto ektithela tan ⸂hodan tou theou.⸃And he began to speak boldly in the synagogue. When Priscilla and Aquila heard him, they took him aside and explained to him the way of God more accurately. 27boulorōntou de autou dierchara eis tan Achaian protreperantois tois adelfois grafala toi mathētoi apodechera auton; hos paragenerantos sumballeta pollem toi pisteuarēntoi dia tau charitau;When Apollos resolved to cross over to Achaia, the brothers encouraged him and wrote to the disciples there to welcome him. On his arrival, he was a great help to those who by grace had believed. 28eutonōs gar toi Ioudaioi diakatelenchote dēmosia epideikarōntos dia taiu grafaiu arō ton christon Iēsun.For he powerfully refuted the Jews in public debate, proving from the Scriptures that Jesus is the Christ.
