Acts 18:1-5 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

1. After this, Paul left Athens and went to Corinth.

2. There he met a Jew named Aquila, who was a native of Pontus. Aquila had recently come from Italy with his wife Priscilla. The emperor Claudius had ordered all the Jews to leave Rome. Paul went to see Aquila and Priscilla.

3. They were tentmakers, just as he was. So he stayed and worked with them.

4. Every Sabbath day he went to the synagogue. He was trying to get both Jews and Greeks to believe in the Lord.

5. Silas and Timothy came from Macedonia. Then Paul spent all his time preaching. He gave witness to the Jews that Jesus was the Christ.
