But when Paul was about to open his mouth, Gallio said to the Jews, "If indeed it were a matter of wrong or of wicked crime, you Jews, it would be reasonable that I should bear with you;
15 Mas se a questão é de palavra [s], e de nomes, e da Lei que há entre vós, vede [-o] vós mesmos; porque destas coisas eu não quero ser juiz.
but if they are questions about words and names and your own law, look to it yourselves. For I do not want to be a judge of these matters."
16 E ele os tirou do tribunal.
He drove them from the judgment seat.
