Acts 18:14-17

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.

¹⁵But you are only arguing about words, and names, and your own Jewish laws, so I will not listen to you. I will not judge these Jewish things. You mob look after that yourselves.”

¹⁶Then Gallio threw those Jewish leaders out of the courtroom.

¹⁷Then the people there grabbed the leader of the Jewish meeting house, called Sosthenes, and they beat him up right there in front of the courthouse. Gallio saw them hitting him, but he didn’t do anything to stop them.
