Atti degli Apostoli 18

BIBBIA MARTINI	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Dipoi partito da Atene andò a Corinto:	1 After these things, having departed from Athens, he arrived at Corinth.
2 E avendo trovato un certo Giudeo, per nome Aquila, nativo di Ponto, il quale era venuto di fresco dall'Italia, e Priscilla sua moglie (essendo che Claudio aveva ordinato, che partisser da Roma tutti i Giudei) andò a star con essi.	2 And upon finding a certain Jew named Aquila, born in Pontus, who had recently arrived from Italy with Priscilla his wife, (because Claudius had ordered all Jews to depart from Rome,) he met with them.
3 E perché aveva lo stesso mestiere, abitava in casa loro, e lavorava (perché l'arte loro era di far le tende).	3 And because he was of the same trade, he lodged with them and was working. (Now they were tentmakers by trade.)
4 E disputava nella Sinagoga ogni sabato, interponendo il nome del Signore Gesù, e convinceva i Giudei, e i Greci.	4 And he was arguing in the synagogue on every Sabbath, introducing the name of the Lord Jesus. And he was persuading Jews and Greeks.
5 Ma quando furono arrivati dalla Macedonia Sila e Timoteo, accudiva assiduamente Paolo alla parola, segui tando a protestare a' Giudei, che Gesù era il Cristo.	5 And when Silas and Timothy had arrived from Macedonia, Paul stood firm in the Word, testifying to the Jews that Jesus is the Christ.
6 E contraddicendo quegli, e bestemmiando, scosse egli le sue vesti, e disse loro: Il vostro sangue sul vostro capo: io non ci ho colpa, d'ora in poi anderò ai Gentili.	6 But since they were contradicting him and blaspheming, he shook out his garments and said to them: “Your blood is on your own heads. I am clean. From now on, I will go to the Gentiles.”
7 E uscito di lì andò in casa d'uno chiamato Tito Giusto, ohe onorava Dio, la casa di cui era contigua alla sinagoga.	7 And moving from that place, he entered into the house of a certain man, named Titus the Just, a worshiper of God, whose house was adjoined to the synagogue.
8 E l'archisinagogo Crispo credette al Signore con tutta la sua famiglia: e molti de' Corinti ascoltando credevano, ed erano battezzati.	8 Now Crispus, a leader of the synagogue, believed in the Lord, with his entire house. And many of the Corinthians, upon hearing, believed and were baptized.
9 E il Signore disse la notte a Paolo in una visione: Non temere, ma parla, e non tacere:	9 Then the Lord said to Paul, through a vision in the night: “Do not be afraid. Instead, speak out and do not be silent.
10 Conciossiachè io son teco: e nissuno si avanzerà a farti male: perché io ho un gran popolo in questa città.	10 For I am with you. And no one will take hold of you, so as to do you harm. For many of the people in this city are with me.”
11 E si fermò un anno, e sei mesi, insegnando tra loro la parola di Dio.	11 Then he settled there for a year and six months, teaching the Word of God among them.
12 Essendo poi Gallione proconsole dell'Acaja, si levaron su tutti daccordo i Giudei contro Paolo, e lo menaron al tribunale,	12 But when Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews rose up with one accord against Paul. And they brought him to the tribunal,
13 Dicendo: Costui persuade alla gente di adorare Dio contro il tenor della legge.	13 saying, “He persuades men to worship God contrary to the law.”
14 E in quel, che Paolo cominciava ad aprir bocca disse Gallione a' Giudei; Se veramente si trattasse di qualche in giustizia, o di delitto grave, io, o Giudei, con ragione vi sopporterei.	14 Then, when Paul was beginning to open his mouth, Gallio said to the Jews: “If this were some matter of injustice, or a wicked deed, O noble Jews, I would support you, as is proper.
15 Ma se sono questioni di parole, e di nomi, e intorno alla vostra legge, pensateci voi: io non voglio esser giudice di tali cose.	15 Yet if truly these are questions about a word and names and your law, you should see to it yourselves. I will not be the judge of such things.”
16 E li mandò via dal tribunale.	16 And he ordered them from the tribunal.
17 Ma quegli avendo tutti preso Sostene principe della Sinagoga, lo battevano dinanzi al tribunale: e Gallione non si prendeva fastidio di niuna di queste cose.	17 But they, apprehending Sosthenes, a leader of the synagogue, beat him in front of the tribunal. And Gallio showed no concern for these things.
18 E Paolo fermatosi ancora per molti giorni, detto addio ai fratelli, navigò verso la Siria (e con lui Priscilla ed Aquila), tosatosi egli il capo in Cencrea: perché aveva voto.	18 Yet truly, Paul, after he had remained for many more days, having said goodbye to the brothers, sailed into Syria, and with him were Priscilla and Aquila. Now he had shaved his head in Cenchreae, for he had made a vow.
19 E arrivò ad Efeso e quivi gli lasciò. Ed egli entrato nella Sinagoga disputava con i Giudei.	19 And he arrived at Ephesus, and he left them behind there. Yet truly, he himself, entering into the synagogue, was disputing with the Jews.
20 E pregandolo questi, che si fermasse più lungamente con loro, non condiscese,	20 Then, although they were asking him to remain for a longer time, he would not agree.
21 Ma licenziatosi, e dicendo: un'altra volta a Dio piacendo tornerò da voi, fece vela da Eteso.	21 Instead, saying goodbye and telling them, “I will return to you again, God willing,” he set out from Ephesus.
22 E sbarcato a Cesarea, si portò a salutare la Chiesa, e andò ad Antiochia.	22 And after going down to Caesarea, he went up to Jerusalem, and he greeted the Church there, and then he descended to Antioch.
23 E ivi fermatosi per alquanto tempo, ne parti scorrendo per ordine il paese della Galazia, e la Frigia; confermando tutti i discepoli.	23 And having spent some length of time there, he set out, and he walked in order through the region of Galatia and Phrygia, strengthening all the disciples.
24 Ma un certo Giudeo, per nome Apollo, nativo di Alessandria, uomo eloquente, e potente nelle scrtture giunse ad Efeso.	24 Now a certain Jew named Apollo, born at Alexandria, an eloquent man who was powerful with the Scriptures, arrived at Ephesus.
25 Questi aveva appreso la via del Signore; e fervoroso di spirito parlava, e insegnava esattamente le cose di Gesù, conoscendo solo il battesimo di Giovanni.	25 He was learned in the Way of the Lord. And being fervent in spirit, he was speaking and teaching the things that are of Jesus, but knowing only the baptism of John.
26 Questi adunque cominciò a parlare liberamente nella Sinagoga. E Priscilla, e Aquila avendolo ascoltato, lo preser seco, e gli esposero più minutamente la via del Signore.	26 And so, he began to act faithfully in the synagogue. And when Priscilla and Aquila had heard him, they took him aside and expounded the Way of the Lord to him more thoroughly.
27 E avendo egli volontà di andare nell'Acaja, i fratelli avendonelo stimolato, scrissero ai discepoli di riceverlo. Ed egli essendovi arrivato, fu di molto vantaggio a quelli, che avevan creduto.	27 Then, since he wanted to go to Achaia, the brothers wrote an exhortation to the disciples, so that they might accept him. And when he had arrived, he held many discussions with those who had believed.
28 Imperocché con gran forza convinceva pubblicamente i Giudei, mostrando con le scritture, Gesù essere il Cristo.	28 For he was vehemently and publicly reproving the Jews, by revealing through the Scriptures that Jesus is the Christ.
