18:1 这事以后，保罗离了雅典，来到哥林多。

After these things Paul departed from Athens, and came to Corinth;

 

18:2 遇见一个犹太人，名叫亚居拉，他生在本都。因为革老丢犹太人都离开罗马，新近带着妻百基拉，从意大利来。保罗就投奔了他们。

And found a certain Jew named Aquila, born in Pontus, lately come from Italy, with his wife Priscilla; (because that Claudius had commanded all Jews to depart from Rome:) and came unto them.

 

18:3 他们本是制造帐棚为业。保罗因与他们同业，就和他们同住作工。

And because he was of the same craft, he abode with them, and wrought: for by their occupation they were tentmakers.

 

18:4 每逢安息日，保罗在会堂里辩论，劝化犹太人和希腊人。

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

 

18:5 西拉和提摩太从马其顿来的时候，保罗为道迫切，向犹太人证明耶稣是基督。

And when Silas and Timotheus were come from Macedonia, Paul was pressed in the spirit, and testified to the Jews that Jesus was Christ.

 

18:6 他们既抗拒，毁谤，保罗就抖着衣裳说，你们的罪归到你们自己头上，（罪原文作血）与我无干，（原文作我却乾净）从今以后，我要往外邦人那里去，

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

 

18:7 于是离开那里，到了一个人的家中，这人名叫提多犹士都，是敬拜神的，他的家靠近会堂。

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

 

18:8 管会堂的基利司布和全家都信了主。还有许多哥林多人听了，就相信受洗。

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

 

18:9 夜间主在异象中对保罗说，不要怕，只管讲，不要闭口。

Then spake the Lord to Paul in the night by a vision, Be not afraid, but speak, and hold not thy peace:

 

18:10 有我与你同在，必没有人下手害你。因为在这城里我有许多的百姓。

For I am with thee, and no man shall set on thee to hurt thee: for I have much people in this city.

 

18:11 保罗在那里住了一年零六个月，将神的道教训他们。

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

 

18:12 到迦流作亚该亚方伯的时候，犹太人同心起来攻击保罗，拉他到公堂，

And when Gallio was the deputy of Achaia, the Jews made insurrection with one accord against Paul, and brought him to the judgment seat,

 

18:13 说，这个人劝人不按着律法敬拜神。

Saying, This fellow persuadeth men to worship God contrary to the law.

 

18:14 保罗刚要开口，迦流就对犹太人说，你们这些犹太人，如果是为冤枉，或奸恶的事，我理当耐性听你们。

And when Paul was now about to open his mouth, Gallio said unto the Jews, If it were a matter of wrong or wicked lewdness, O ye Jews, reason would that I should bear with you:

 

18:15 但所争论的，若是关乎言语，名目，和你们的律法，你们自己去辨吧。这样的事我不愿意审问。

But if it be a question of words and names, and of your law, look ye to it; for I will be no judge of such matters.

 

18:16 就把他们撵出公堂。

And he drave them from the judgment seat.

 

18:17 众人便揪住管会堂的所提尼，在堂前打他。这些事迦流都不管。

Then all the Greeks took Sosthenes, the chief ruler of the synagogue, and beat him before the judgment seat. And Gallio cared for none of those things.

 

18:18 保罗又住了多日，就辞别了弟兄，坐船往叙利亚去，百基拉，亚居拉和他同去。他因为许过愿，就在坚革哩剪了头发。

And Paul after this tarried there yet a good while, and then took his leave of the brethren, and sailed thence into Syria, and with him Priscilla and Aquila; having shorn his head in Cenchrea: for he had a vow.

 

18:19 到了以弗所，保罗就把他们留在那里，自己进了会堂，和犹太人辩论。

And he came to Ephesus, and left them there: but he himself entered into the synagogue, and reasoned with the Jews.

 

18:20 众人请他多住些日子，他却不允。

When they desired him to tarry longer time with them, he consented not;

 

18:21 就辞别他们说，神若许我，我还要回到你们这里。于是开船离了以弗所。

But bade them farewell, saying, I must by all means keep this feast that cometh in Jerusalem: but I will return again unto you, if God will. And he sailed from Ephesus.

 

18:22 在凯撒利亚下了船，就上耶路撒冷去问教会安，随后下安提阿去。

And when he had landed at Caesarea, and gone up, and saluted the church, he went down to Antioch.

 

18:23 住了些日子，又离开那里，挨次经过加拉太和弗吕家地方，坚固众门徒。

And after he had spent some time there, he departed, and went over all the country of Galatia and Phrygia in order, strengthening all the disciples.

 

18:24 有一个犹太人，名叫亚波罗，来到以弗所。他生在亚力山太，是有学问的，最能讲解圣经。（学问或作口才）。

And a certain Jew named Apollos, born at Alexandria, an eloquent man, and mighty in the scriptures, came to Ephesus.

 

18:25 这人已经在主的道上受了教训，心里火热，将耶稣的事，详细讲论教训人。只是他单晓得约翰的洗礼。

This man was instructed in the way of the Lord; and being fervent in the spirit, he spake and taught diligently the things of the Lord, knowing only the baptism of John.

 

18:26 他在会堂放胆讲道，百基拉，亚居拉听见，就接他来，将神的道给他讲解更加详细。

And he began to speak boldly in the synagogue: whom when Aquila and Priscilla had heard, they took him unto them, and expounded unto him the way of God more perfectly.

 

18:27 他想要往亚该亚去。弟兄们就勉励他，并写信请门徒接待他。（或作弟兄们就写信劝门徒接待他）他到了那里，多帮助那蒙恩信主的人。

And when he was disposed to pass into Achaia, the brethren wrote, exhorting the disciples to receive him: who, when he was come, helped them much which had believed through grace:

 

18:28 在众人面前极有能力，驳倒犹太人，引圣经证明耶稣是基督。

For he mightily convinced the Jews, and that publickly, shewing by the scriptures that Jesus was Christ.
