11So Paul stayed in Corinth for one and a half years, teaching God’s word to people.
12Later a man called Gallio became the new Roman boss of that country called Achaia. The Jewish leaders agreed together about what they wanted to do, then they grabbed Paul and took him to the courtroom of that new boss. They blamed Paul,
13and told the boss, “This man is teaching people wrong. He is telling them to break our Jewish law. He is telling them the wrong way to show respect for God.”
14Then Paul got up to talk, but Gallio said, “Wait.” And he said to the Jews, “I will not listen to you mob. If this man did something bad, or if he broke our Roman law, then I will listen to you.
