18 — Atti degli Apostoli

1After these things, departing from Athens, he came to Corinth.Dipoi partito da Atene andò a Corinto:AFTER these things, departing from Athens, he came to Corinth.Post hæc egressus ab Athenis, venit Corinthum: 2And finding a certain Jew, named Aquila, born in Pontus, lately come from Italy, with Priscilla his wife (because that Claudius had commanded all Jews to depart from Rome), he came to them.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.and finding a certaine Ievv, named Aquila, borne in Pontus, vvho of late vvas come out of Italie, and Priscilla his vvife (because Claudius had commaunded al Ievves to depart from Rome,) he came to them.et inveniens quemdam Judæum nomine Aquilam, Ponticum genere, qui nuper venerat ab Italia, et Priscillam uxorem ejus (eo quod præcepisset Claudius discedere omnes Judæos a Roma), accessit ad eos. 3And because he was of the same trade, he remained with them and wrought. (Now they were tentmakers by trade.)E perché aveva lo stesso mestiere, abitava in casa loro, e lavorava (perché l'arte loro era di far le tende).And because he vvas of the same craft, he remained vvith them, and vvrought, (and they vvere tentmakers by their craft.)Et quia ejusdem erat artis, manebat apud eos, et operabatur. (Erant autem scenofactoriæ artis.) 4And he reasoned in the synagogue every sabbath, bringing in the name of the Lord Jesus. And he persuaded the Jews and the Greeks.E disputava nella Sinagoga ogni sabato, interponendo il nome del Signore Gesù, e convinceva i Giudei, e i Greci.And he disputed in the synagogue euery Sabboth, interposing the name of our Lord IESVS, and he exhorted the Ievves and the Greekes.Et disputabat in synagoga per omne sabbatum, interponens nomen Domini Jesu: suadebatque Judæis et Græcis. 5And when Silas and Timothy were come from Macedonia, Paul was earnest in preaching, testifying to the Jews that Jesus is the Christ.Ma quando furono arrivati dalla Macedonia Sila e Timoteo, accudiva assiduamente Paolo alla parola, seguitando a protestare a' Giudei, che Gesù era il Cristo.And vvhen Silas and Timothee vvere come from Macedonia, Paul vvas instant in preaching, testifying to the Ievves that IESVS is CHRIST.Cum venissent autem de Macedonia Silas et Timotheus, instabat verbo Paulus, testificans Judæis esse Christum Jesum. 6But they gainsaying and blaspheming, he shook his garments and said to them: Your blood be upon your own heads: I am clean. From henceforth I will go unto the Gentiles.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.But they contradicting and blaspheming, he shaking his garmēts, said to them, Your bloud vpon your ovvne head: I being cleane, from hence forth vvil goe to the Gentiles.Contradicentibus autem eis, et blasphemantibus, excutiens vestimenta sua, dixit ad eos: Sanguis vester super caput vestrum: mundus ego: ex hoc ad gentes vadam.

7And departing thence, he entered into the house of a certain man, named Titus Justus, one that worshipped God, whose house was adjoining to the synagogue.E uscito di lì andò in casa d'uno chiamato Tito Giusto, che onorava Dio, la casa di cui era contigua alla sinagoga.And departing thēce, he entred into the house of a certaine man, named Titus Iustus, one that serued God, vvhose house vvas adioyning to the synagogue.Et migrans inde, intravit in domum cujusdam, nomine Titi Justi, colentis Deum, cujus domus erat conjuncta synagogæ. 8And Crispus, the ruler of the synagogue, believed in the Lord, with all his house. And many of the Corinthians hearing, believed and were baptized.E l'archisinagogo Crispo credette al Signore con tutta la sua famiglia: e molti de' Corinti ascoltando credevano, ed erano battezzati.And Crispus the prince of the Synagogue beleeued our Lord, vvith al his house: and many of the Corinthians hearing beleeued, and vvere baptized.Crispus autem archisynagogus credidit Domino cum omni domo sua: et multi Corinthiorum audientes credebant, et baptizabantur. 9And the Lord said to Paul in the night, by a vision: Do not fear, but speak. And hold not thy peace,E il Signore disse la notte a Paolo in una visione: Non temere, ma parla, e non tacere:And our Lord said in the night by a vision to Paul, Doe not feare, but speake, and hold not thy peace,Dixit autem Dominus nocte per visionem Paulo: Noli timere, sed loquere, et ne taceas: 10Because I am with thee and no man shall set upon thee, to hurt thee. For I have much people in this city.Conciossiachè io son teco: e nissuno si avanzerà a farti male: perché io ho un gran popolo in questa città.for-because I am vvith thee: and no man shal set vpon thee to hurt thee: for I haue much people in this citie.propter quod ego sum tecum, et nemo apponetur tibi ut noceat te: quoniam populus est mihi multus in hac civitate. 11And he stayed there a year and six months, teaching among them the word of God.E si fermò un anno, e sei mesi, insegnando tra loro la parola di Dio.And he sate there a yere & sixe moneths, teaching among them the vvord of God.Sedit autem ibi annum et sex menses, docens apud eos verbum Dei. 12But when Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews with one accord rose up against Paul and brought him to the judgment seat,Essendo poi Gallione proconsole dell'Acaja, si levaron su tutti d'accordo i Giudei contro Paolo, e lo menaron al tribunale,But Gallio being Proconsul of Achaia, the Ievves vvith one accord rose vp against Paul, and brought him to the iudgement seate,Gallione autem proconsule Achaiæ, insurrexerunt uno animo Judæi in Paulum, et adduxerunt eum ad tribunal, 13Saying: This man persuadeth men to worship God contrary to the law.Dicendo: Costui persuade alla gente di adorare Dio contro il tenor della legge.saying, That this man contrarie to the Lavv persuadeth men to vvorshippe God.dicentes: Quia contra legem hic persuadet hominibus colere Deum.

14And when Paul was beginning to open his mouth, Gallio said to the Jews: If it were some matter of injustice or an heinous deed, O Jews, I should with reason bear with you.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.And Paul beginning to open his mouth, Gallio said to the Ievves, If it vvere some vniust thing, or an heinous facte, O you men Ievves, I should by reason beare you.Incipiente autem Paulo aperire os, dixit Gallio ad Judæos: Si quidem esset iniquum aliquid aut facinus pessimum, o viri Judæi, recte vos sustinerem. 15But if they be questions of word and names and of your law, look you to it. I will not be judge of such things.Ma se sono questioni di parole, e di nomi, e intorno alla vostra legge, pensateci voi: io non voglio esser giudice di tali cose.But if they be questions of vvord & names, and of your lavv, your selues looke vnto it: I vvil not be iudge of these things.Si vero quæstiones sunt de verbo, et nominibus, et lege vestra, vos ipsi videritis: judex ego horum nolo esse. 16And he drove them from the judgment seat.E li mandò via dal tribunale.And he droue them from the iudgement seate.Et minavit eos a tribunali. 17And all laying hold on Sosthenes, the ruler of the synagogue, beat him before the judgment seat. And Gallio cared for none of those things.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.And al apprehēding Sósthenes the prince of the synagogue, strooke him before the iudgement seate: and Gallio cared for none of those things.Apprehendentes autem omnes Sosthenem principem synagogæ, percutiebant eum ante tribunal: et nihil eorum Gallioni curæ erat. 18But Paul, when he had stayed yet many days, taking his leave of the brethren, sailed thence into Syria (and with him Priscilla and Aquila), having shorn his head in Cenchrae. For he had a vow.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.But Paul vvhen he had staied yet many daies, taking his leaue of the brethren, sailed to Syria, (and vvith him Priscilla and Aquila,) vvho had shorne his head in Cenchris. for he had a vovv.Paulus vero cum adhuc sustinuisset dies multos fratribus valefaciens, navigavit in Syriam (et cum eo Priscilla et Aquila), qui sibi totonderat in Cenchris caput: habebat enim votum.

19And he came to Ephesus and left them there. But he himself, entering into the synagogue, disputed with the Jews.E arrivò ad Efeso e quivi gli lasciò. Ed egli entrato nella Sinagoga disputava con i Giudei.And he came vnto Ephesus, and them he left there. But him self entring into the synagogue, disputed vvith the Ievves.Devenitque Ephesum, et illos ibi reliquit. Ipse vero ingressus synagogam, disputabat cum Judæis. 20And when they desired him that he would tarry a longer time, he consented not:E pregandolo questi, che si fermasse più lungamente con loro, non condiscese,And vvhen they desired him, that he vvould tarie a longer time, he consented not,Rogantibus autem eis ut ampliori tempore maneret, non consensit, 21But taking his leave and saying: I will return to you again, God willing, he departed from Ephesus.Ma licenziatosi, e dicendo: un'altra volta a Dio piacendo tornerò da voi, fece vela da Efeso.but taking his leaue, and saying, I vvil returne to you againe God vvilling, he departed from Ephesus.sed valefaciens, et dicens: Iterum revertar ad vos, Deo volente: profectus est ab Epheso. 22And going down to Cæsarea, he went up to Jerusalem and saluted the church: and so came down to Antioch.E sbarcato a Cesarea, si portò a salutare la Chiesa, e andò ad Antiochia.And going dovvne to Caesaréa, he vvent vp, and saluted the Church, and came dovvne to Antioche.Et descendens Cæsaream, ascendit, et salutavit ecclesiam, et descendit Antiochiam. 23And after he had spent some time there, he departed and went through the country of Galatia and Phrygia, in order, confirming all the disciples.E ivi fermatosi per alquanto tempo, ne parti scorrendo per ordine il paese della Galazia, e la Frigia; confermando tutti i discepoli.And hauing taried there a certaine time, he departed, vvalking in order through the countrie of Galatia and Phrygia, confirming al the disciples.Et facto ibi aliquanto tempore profectus est, perambulans ex ordine Galaticam regionem, et Phrygiam, confirmans omnes discipulos. 24Now a certain Jew, named Apollo, born at Alexandria, an eloquent man, came to Ephesus, one mighty in the scriptures.Ma un certo Giudeo, per nome Apollo, nativo di Alessandria, uomo eloquente, e potente nelle scritture giunse ad Efeso.And a certaine Ievv, named Apollo, borne at Alexandria, an eloquent man, came to Ephesus, mighty in the scriptures.Judæus autem quidam, Apollo nomine, Alexandrinus genere, vir eloquens, devenit Ephesum, potens in scripturis.

25This man was instructed in the way of the Lord: and being fervent in spirit, spoke and taught diligently the things that are of Jesus, knowing only the baptism of John.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.This man vvas taught the vvay of our Lord: and being feruent in spirit he spake, and taught diligently those things that pertaine to IESVS, knovving only the baptisme of Iohn.Hic erat edoctus viam Domini: et fervens spiritu loquebatur, et docebat diligenter ea quæ sunt Jesu, sciens tantum baptisma Joannis. 26This man therefore began to speak boldly in the synagogue. Whom when Priscilla and Aquila had heard, they took him to them and expounded to him the way of the Lord more diligently.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.This man therfore began to deale confidently in the synagogue. Vvhom vvhen Priscilla and Aquila had heard, they tooke him vnto them, and expounded to him the vvay of our Lord more diligently.Hic ergo cœpit fiducialiter agere in synagoga. Quem cum audissent Priscilla et Aquila, assumpserunt eum, et diligentius exposuerunt ei viam Domini. 27And whereas he was desirous to go to Achaia, the brethren exhorting wrote to the disciples to receive him. Who, when he was come, helped them much who had believed.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.And vvhereas he vvas desirous to goe to Achaia, the brethren exhorting vvrote to the disciples to receiue him. Vvho, vvhen he vvas come, profited them much that had beleeued.Cum autem vellet ire Achaiam, exhortati fratres, scripserunt discipulis ut susciperent eum. Qui cum venisset, contulit multum his qui crediderant. 28For with much vigour he convinced the Jews openly, shewing by the scriptures that Jesus is the Christ.Imperocché con gran forza convinceva pubblicamente i Giudei, mostrando con le scritture, Gesù essere il Cristo.For he vvith vehemencie conuinced the Ievves openly, shevving by the scriptures, that IESVS is CHRIST.Vehementer enim Judæos revincebat publice, ostendens per Scripturas esse Christum Jesum.
