12 When Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews with one accord rose up against Paul and brought him to the1 judgment seat,  
13 saying, “This fellow persuades men to worship God contrary to the law.”
14 And when Paul was about to open his mouth, Gallio said to the Jews, “If it were a matter of wrongdoing or wicked crimes, O Jews, there would be reason why I should bear with you.
15 But if it is a aquestion of words and names and your own law, look to it yourselves; for I do not want to be a judge of such matters.”  
16 And he drove them from the judgment seat.
17 Then1 all the Greeks took aSosthenes, the ruler of the synagogue, and beat him before the judgment seat. But Gallio took no notice of these things.
