¹And after these things, Paul having departed out of Athens, came to Corinth,

¹¶ Muri iho i enei mea ka haere atu a Paora i Atene, ka tae ki Koriniti;

²and having found a certain Jew, by name Aquilas, of Pontus by birth, lately come from Italy, and Priscilla his wife — because of Claudius having directed all the Jews to depart out of Rome — he came to them,

²Na ka kite ia i tetahi Hurai ko Akuira te ingoa, i whanau ki Ponoto, he mea tae hou mai i Itari, raua ko tana wahine, ko Pirihira; kua whakahaua hoki e Karauria kia haere atu nga Hurai katoa i Roma: a ka haere ia ki a raua.

³and because of being of the same craft, he did remain with them, and was working, for they were tent-makers as to craft;

³A, no te mea kotahi ta ratou mahi, ka noho ia ki a raua, ka mahi ratou: he tui teneti hoki ta raua mahi.

⁴and he was reasoning in the synagogue every sabbath, persuading both Jews and Greeks.

⁴Na ka korerorero ia i roto i te whare karakia i nga hapati katoa, e tohe ana ki nga Hurai ratou ko nga Kariki.

⁵And when both Silas and Timotheus came down from Macedonia, Paul was pressed in the Spirit, testifying fully to the Jews Jesus the Christ;

⁵No te taenga mai ia o Hira raua ko Timoti i Makeronia, ka takare te ngakau o Paora, ka whakapuaki ki nga Hurai ko Ihu te Karaiti.

⁶and on their resisting and speaking evil, having shaken [his] garments, he said unto them, `Your blood [is] upon your head — I am clean; henceforth to the nations I will go on.`

⁶Heoi, i a ratou ka whakatika, ka kohukohu, ka ruia e ia ona kakahu, ka mea ki a ratou, hei runga i o koutou matenga o koutou toto; ka ma ahau: ko tenei ka haere ahau ki nga Tauiwi.

⁷And having departed thence, he went to the house of a certain one, by name Justus, a worshipper of God, whose house was adjoining the synagogue,

⁷¶ Na ka haere atu ia i reira, ka tomo ki te whare o tetahi tangata, ko Taituha Hutuha te ingoa, he tangata karakia ki te Atua, ko tona whare i tata tonu ki te whare karakia.

⁸and Crispus, the ruler of the synagogue did believe in the Lord with all his house, and many of the Corinthians hearing were believing, and they were being baptized.

⁸Na ka whakapono a Kirihipu, te rangatira o te whare karakia, me tona whare katoa ki te Ariki; he tokomaha hoki nga Koriniti, i a ratou ka rongo, i whakapono, i iriiria hoki.

⁹And the Lord said through a vision in the night to Paul, `Be not afraid, but be speaking and thou mayest be not silent;

⁹A ka korero moemoea te Ariki ki a Paora i te po, Kaua e wehi, engari me korero, kei noho puku:

¹⁰because I am with thee, and no one shall set on thee to do thee evil; because I have much people in this city;`

¹⁰Kei a koe hoki ahau, e kore hoki tetahi tangata e pa ki a koe, e hoatu i te kino ki a koe: he nui hoki aku tangata i tenei pa.

¹¹and he continued a year and six months, teaching among them the word of God.

¹¹Na kotahi te tau e ono marama i noho ai ia i reira, i whakaako ai i te kupu a te Atua i roto i a ratou.

¹²And Gallio being proconsul of Achaia, the Jews made a rush with one accord upon Paul, and brought him unto the tribunal,

¹²¶ Na, i a Kario e noho ana hei kawana mo Akaia, kotahi tonu whakatikanga o nga Hurai ki a Paora, a kawea ana ia ki te nohoanga whakawa,

¹³saying — `Against the law this one doth persuade men to worship God;`

¹³Ka mea, E kukume ana tenei i nga tangata ki tetahi karakia ki te Atua e poka ke ana i ta te ture.

¹⁴and Paul being about to open [his] mouth, Gallio said unto the Jews, `If, indeed, then, it was anything unrighteous, or an act of wicked profligacy, O Jews, according to reason I had borne with you,

¹⁴A, e mea tonu ana te mangai o Paora ki te puaki, ka mea a Kario ki nga Hurai, E nga Hurai, mehemea ko tetahi hanga he, ko tetahi mahi kino ranei, he tika kia ata whakarongo ahau ki a koutou:

¹⁵but if it is a question concerning words and names, and of your law, look ye yourselves [to it], for a judge of these things I do not wish to be,`

¹⁵Ko tenei he totohe korero, he mea ki nga ingoa, ki ta koutou ture, kei a koutou te whakaaro; e kore hoki ahau e pai kia waiho ahau hei kaiwhakawa mo ena mea.

¹⁶and he drave them from the tribunal;

¹⁶Na peia atu ana ratou e ia i te nohoanga whakawa.

¹⁷and all the Greeks having taken Sosthenes, the chief man of the synagogue, were beating [him] before the tribunal, and not even for these things was Gallio caring.

¹⁷Na ka mau nga Kariki katoa ki a Hotene, rangatira o te whare karakia, a whiua ana ia i mua o te nohoanga whakawa. Heoi kihai a Kario i whakaaro ki tetahi o enei mea.

¹⁸And Paul having remained yet a good many days, having taken leave of the brethren, was sailing to Syria — and with him [are] Priscilla and Aquilas — having shorn [his] head in Cenchera, for he had a vow;

¹⁸¶ A, ka maha nga ra i noho ai a Paora, ka poroporoaki ia ki nga teina, a rere ana ki Hiria, ratou ko Pirihira ko Akuira; he mea moremore tona i Kenekerea: he ki taurangi hoki nana.

¹⁹and he came down to Ephesus, and did leave them there, and he himself having entered into the synagogue did reason with the Jews:

¹⁹A ka tae ratou ki Epeha, ka mahue raua i a ia ki reira: ko ia i tomo ki te whare karakia, korerorero ai ki nga Hurai.

²⁰and they having requested [him] to remain a longer time with them, he did not consent,

²⁰A, i ta ratou meatanga kia roa atu te wa e noho ai ia ki a ratou, kihai ia i whakaae;

²¹but took leave of them, saying, `It behoveth me by all means the coming feast to keep at Jerusalem, and again I will return unto you — God willing.` And he sailed from Ephesus,

²¹Heoi poroporoaki ana ki a ratou, ka mea, E hoki mai ano ahau ki a koutou, ki te pai te Atua; a rere atu ana ia i Epeha.

²²and having come down to Cesarea, having gone up, and having saluted the assembly, he went down to Antioch.

²²A, no ka u ia ki Hiharia, ka haere atu ka oha ki te hahi, a haere ana ki Anatioka.

²³And having made some stay he went forth, going through in order the region of Galatia and Phrygia, strengthening all the disciples.

²³A, roaroa iho ki reira, ka haere, a haereerea marietia ana e ia te whenua o Karatia, o Pirikia, me te whakau i nga akonga katoa.

²⁴And a certain Jew, Apollos by name, an Alexandrian by birth, a man of eloquence, being mighty in the Writings, came to Ephesus,

²⁴¶ Na ka haere mai tetahi Hurai ki Epeha, ko Aporo te ingoa, i whanau ki Arehanaria, he pu korero, he tangata kaha ki nga karaipiture.

²⁵this one was instructed in the way of the Lord, and being fervent in the Spirit, was speaking and teaching exactly the things about the Lord, knowing only the baptism of John;

²⁵I whakaakona tenei tangata ki te ara o te Ariki; he tangata ia e toko tonu ake ana te ngakau, ka korero ia, tika tonu hoki tana whakaako i nga mea mo Ihu; heoi ano tana i matau ai ko te iriiri a Hoani;

²⁶this one also began to speak boldly in the synagogue, and Aquilas and Priscilla having heard of him, took him to [them], and did more exactly expound to him the way of God,

²⁶Ka anga ia ka korero nui i roto i te whare karakia. No te rongonga o Akuira raua ko Pirihia ki a ia, ka mau raua ki a ia, ka ata whakaatu ki a ia i te ara o te Atua.

²⁷and he being minded to go through into Achaia, the brethren wrote to the disciples, having exhorted them to receive him, who having come, did help them much who have believed through the grace,

²⁷A, no ka mea ia kia haere ki Akaia, ka tautokona ia e nga teina, a ka tuhituhi ratou ki nga akonga kia whakamanuhiritia ia e ratou: a, no tona taenga atu, ka whakakahangia e ia te hunga i meinga nei e te aroha noa kia whakapono:

²⁸for powerfully the Jews he was refuting publicly, shewing through the Writings Jesus to be the Christ.

²⁸Kaha rawa hoki tana whawhati i ta nga Hurai i roto i te huihui; whakaaturia ana e ia ta nga karaipiture mo Ihu, ko te Karaiti ia.
