5 When Silas and Timothy arrived from Macedonia, Paul devoted himself to preaching the word[a] and testified to the Jews that Jesus is the Messiah.(B) 6 When they resisted and blasphemed,(C) he shook out his clothes(D) and told them, “Your blood is on your own heads!(E) I am innocent.[b] From now on I will go to the Gentiles.”(F) 7 So he left there and went to the house of a man named Titius Justus, a worshiper of God, whose house was next door to the synagogue. 8 Crispus, the leader of the synagogue, believed in the Lord, along with his whole household.(G) Many of the Corinthians, when they heard, believed and were baptized.
