The New Messianic Version of the Bible 1 After these things Sha’ul [desired] departed from Athens [uncertainty], and came to Corinth [satiated];
2And found a certain Jewish person named Aquila [an eagle], born in Pontus [the sea], lately come from Italy [calf-like], with his wife Priscilla [ancient]; (because that Claudius [lame] had commanded all Y’hudim (Judeans) [praised of Yah] to depart from Rome [strength]:) and came unto them.
3And because he was of the same craft, he abode with them, and wrought: for by their occupation they were tentmakers.
4And he reasoned in the synagogue every Shabbat [rest], and persuaded the Y’hudim (Judeans) [praised of Yah] and the Greeks [unstable: miry ones]. 5And when Silas [woody] and Timothy [honoring God] were come from Macedonia [extended land], Sha’ul [desired] was pressed in the Spirit [Ruach], and testified to the Y’hudim (Judeans) [praised of Yah] [that] Yeshua [God is Salvation][was] Moshiach [Messiah]. 6And when they opposed themselves, and blasphemed, he shook [his] clothing, and said unto them, Your blood [be] upon your own heads; I [am] clean: from from this time forth (from now on) I will go unto the Goyim [Gentiles]. 7And he departed there, and entered into a certain [man's] house, named Justus [just], [one] that worshipped God-The Father, whose house bordered (was adjacent to) to the synagogue. 8And Crispus [curled], the chief ruler of the synagogue, believed on the Lord - Kurios with all his house; and many of the Corinthians [satiated] hearing believed, and were baptized. 9Then spoke the Lord - Kurios to Sha’ul [desired] in the night by a vision, Be not afraid, but speak, and hold not youri peace: 10For I am with youi, and no man shall set on youi to hurt youi: for I have much people in this city. 11And he continued [there] a year and six months, teaching the word of God-The Father among them. 12And when Gallio [one who lives on milk] was the deputy of Achaia [trouble], the Y’hudim (Judeans) [praised of Yah] made insurrection with one accord against Sha’ul [desired], and brought him to the judgment seat, 13Saying, This [fellow] persuades men to worship God-The Father contrary to the law. 14And when Sha’ul [desired] was now about to open [his] mouth, Gallio [one who lives on milk] said unto the Y’hudim (Judeans) [praised of Yah], If it were a matter of wrong or wicked lewdness, O [you2f] Y’hudim (Judeans) [praised of Yah], reason would that I should bear with you: 15But if it be a question of words and names, and [of] your law, look you2f [to it]; for I will be no judge of such [matters]. 16And he drove them from the judgment seat. 17Then all the Greeks [unstable: miry ones] took Sosthenes [saviour of his nation], the chief ruler of the synagogue, and beat [him] before the judgment seat. And Gallio [one who lives on milk] cared for none of those things. 18And Sha’ul [desired] [after this] tarried [there] yet a good while, and then took his leave of the brethren, and sailed there into Aram [exalted] (Syria [etymology is uncertain]) [exalted], and with him Priscilla [ancient] and Aquila [an eagle]; having shorn [his] head in Cenchrea [millet]: for he had a vow. 19And he came to Ephesus [permitted], and left them there: but he himself entered into the synagogue, and reasoned with the Y’hudim (Judeans) [praised of Yah]. 20When they desired [him] to wait longer time with them, he consented not; 21But bade them farewell, saying, I must by all means keep this feast that comes in Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace]: but I will return again unto you, if God-The Father will. And he sailed from Ephesus [permitted]. 22And when he had landed at Caesarea [severed], and gone up, and saluted the church, he went down to Antioch [speedy as a chariot]. 23And after he had spent some time [there], he departed, and went over [all] the country of Galatia [land of the Galli, Gauls, A Celt] and Phrygia [dry, barren] in order, strengthening all the disciples. 24And a certain Jewish man named Apollos [given by Apollo (etymology uncertain)], born at Alexandria [one who assists men], an eloquent man, [and] mighty in the scriptures, came to Ephesus [permitted]. 25This man was instructed in the way of the Lord - Kurios; and being fervent in the Spirit [Ruach], he spoke and taught diligently the things of the Lord - Kurios, knowing only the baptism of Yochanan [Yehovah has graced]. 26And he began to speak boldly in the synagogue: whom when Aquila [an eagle] and Priscilla [ancient] had heard, they took him unto [them], and expounded unto him the way of God-The Father more perfectly. 27And when he was disposed to pass into Achaia [trouble], the brethren wrote, exhorting the disciples to receive him: who, when he was come, helped them much which had believed through grace: 28For he mightily convinced the Y’hudim (Judeans) [praised of Yah], [and that] publickly, showing by the scriptures that Yeshua [God is Salvation]was Moshiach [Messiah].
