¹Potom odišiel Pavel z Atén a prišiel do Korintu.

¹After these things Paul departed from Athens, and came to Corinth.

²A keď našiel istého Žida, menom Akvilu, rodom z Pontu, ktorý bol nedávno prišiel z Itálie, a Priscillu, jeho ženu, pretože bol rozkázal Klaudius, aby všetci Židia odišli z Ríma, pripojil sa k nim

²He found a certain Jew named Aquila, a man of Pontus by race, who had recently come from Italy, with his wife Priscilla, because Claudius had commanded all the Jews to depart from Rome. He came to them,

³a pretože bol toho istého remesla, býval u nich a pracoval, lebo čo do remesla robili stány.

³and because he practiced the same trade, he lived with them and worked, for by trade they were tent makers.

⁴A hovoril v synagóge každú sobotu a presviedčal Židov i Grékov.

⁴He reasoned in the synagogue every Sabbath, and persuaded Jews and Greeks.

⁵A keď prišli dolu z Macedonie Sílas a Timoteus, Pavel bol celý zaujatý slovom svedčiac pevne Židom, že Kristus je Ježiš.

⁵But when Silas and Timothy came down from Macedonia, Paul was compelled by the Spirit, testifying to the Jews that Jesus was the Christ.

⁶Ale keď sa protivili a rúhali sa, vytriasol si rúcho z ich prachu a povedal im: Vaša krv na vašu hlavu; ja som čistý; odteraz pojdem k pohanom.

⁶When they opposed him and blasphemed, he shook out his clothing and said to them, “Your blood be on your own heads! I am clean. From now on, I will go to the Gentiles!”

⁷A odíduc odtiaľ prišiel do domu istého bohabojného muža, menom Títa Justa, ktorého dom splýval so synagógou.

⁷He departed there, and went into the house of a certain man named Justus, one who worshiped God, whose house was next door to the synagogue.

⁸A Krispus, predstavený synagógy, uveril Pánovi s celým svojím domom, i mnohí z Korinťanov počúvajúc verili a dávali sa pokrstiť.

⁸Crispus, the ruler of the synagogue, believed in the Lord with all his house. Many of the Corinthians, when they heard, believed and were baptized.

⁹A Pán povedal Pavlovi vnoci skrze videnie: Neboj sa, ale hovor a nemlč,

⁹The Lord said to Paul in the night by a vision, “Don’t be afraid, but speak and don’t be silent;

¹⁰lebo ja som s tebou, a nikto nesiahne na teba, aby ti zle urobil, pretože mám mnoho ľudu v tomto meste.

¹⁰ for I am with you, and no one will attack you to harm you, for I have many people in this city.”

¹¹A bol tam rok a šesť mesiacov a učil medzi nimi slovo Božie.

¹¹He lived there a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.

¹²Ale keď bol Gallion prokonzulom Achaje, povstali Židia jednomyseľne proti Pavlovi a zaviedli ho pred súdište

¹²But when Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews with one accord rose up against Paul and brought him before the judgment seat,

¹³a hovorili: tento navádza ľudí, aby ctili Boha spôsobom, ktorý sa protiví zákonu.

¹³saying, “This man persuades men to worship God contrary to the law.”

¹⁴A keď mal Pavel otvoriť ústa, povedal Gallion Židom: Keby to bola, ó, Židia, nejaká krivda alebo nejaký iný ľahkomyseľný zlý skutok, bolo by rozumné, aby som vás zniesol;

¹⁴But when Paul was about to open his mouth, Gallio said to the Jews, “If indeed it were a matter of wrong or of wicked crime, you Jews, it would be reasonable that I should bear with you;

¹⁵ale ak sú to škriepky o slovo, o mená a o váš zákon, to si sami vybavte, lebo toho ja nechcem byť sudcom.

¹⁵but if they are questions about words and names and your own law, look to it yourselves. For I don’t want to be a judge of these matters.”

¹⁶A odohnal ich od súdišťa.

¹⁶He drove them from the judgment seat.

¹⁷Vtedy pochytili všetci Gréci Sosténa, predstaveného synagógy, a bili ho pred súdišťom. A Gallion na to nič nedbal.

¹⁷Then all the Greeks laid hold on Sosthenes, the ruler of the synagogue, and beat him before the judgment seat. Gallio didn’t care about any of these things.

¹⁸A Pavel tam pobudol ešte za mnoho dní; ale potom sa odobral od bratov a odplavil sa do Sýrie a s ním Priscilla a Akvila, keď si bol v Kenchreách ostrihal hlavu, lebo mal sľub.

¹⁸Paul, having stayed after this many more days, took his leave of the brothers, The word for “brothers” here and where the context allows may also be correctly translated “brothers and sisters” or “siblings.” and sailed from there for Syria, together with Priscilla and Aquila. He shaved his head in Cenchreae, for he had a vow.

¹⁹A prišli do Efezu, a ich zanechal tam a sám vošiel do synagógy a hovoril so Židmi.

¹⁹He came to Ephesus, and he left them there; but he himself entered into the synagogue, and reasoned with the Jews.

²⁰A keď ho prosili, žeby zostal u nich za viacej času, neprivolil,

²⁰When they asked him to stay with them a longer time, he declined;

²¹ale sa odobral od nich a povedal: Musím na každý spôsob nastávajúci sviatok sláviť v Jeruzaleme, ale sa zase navrátim k vám, ak bude Bôh chcieť. A tak sa odplavil z Efezu.

²¹but taking his leave of them, and saying, “I must by all means keep this coming feast in Jerusalem, but I will return again to you if God wills,” he set sail from Ephesus.

²²A prijdúc dolu do Cezáree odišiel hore do Jeruzalema a pozdraviac cirkev odišiel dolu do Antiochie.

²²When he had landed at Caesarea, he went up and greeted the assembly, and went down to Antioch.

²³A keď tam pobudol nejaký čas, odišiel zase a chodil radom po Galatskej krajine a po Frýgii a upevňoval všetkých učeníkov.

²³Having spent some time there, he departed, and went through the region of Galatia, and Phrygia, in order, establishing all the disciples.

²⁴A nejaký Žid, menom Apollo, rodom z Alexandrie, muž výrečný a mocný v písmach, prišiel do Efezu.

²⁴Now a certain Jew named Apollos, an Alexandrian by race, an eloquent man, came to Ephesus. He was mighty in the Scriptures.

²⁵Ten už bol vynaučovaný ceste Pánovej a, vrúci duchom, hovoril a učil správne o Pánu Ježišovi znajúc iba krst Jánov.

²⁵This man had been instructed in the way of the Lord; and being fervent in spirit, he spoke and taught accurately the things concerning Jesus, although he knew only the baptism of John.

²⁶A ten započal prosto a smele hovoriť v synagóge. A keď ho počuli Priscilla a Akvila, prijali ho k sebe a dôkladnejšie mu vyložili cestu Božiu.

²⁶He began to speak boldly in the synagogue. But when Priscilla and Aquila heard him, they took him aside, and explained to him the way of God more accurately.

²⁷A pretože chcel prejsť do Achaje, bratia ho povzbudili k tomu a napísali učeníkom, žeby ho prijali. A on, keď ta prišiel, prospel mnoho uverivším skrze milosť;

²⁷When he had determined to pass over into Achaia, the brothers encouraged him, and wrote to the disciples to receive him. When he had come, he greatly helped those who had believed through grace;

²⁸lebo pádne usviedčal Židov, verejne, a poukazoval písmami, že Kristus je Ježiš.

²⁸for he powerfully refuted the Jews, publicly showing by the Scriptures that Jesus was the Christ.
