⁶ But when they opposed Paul and became abusive,^(A) he shook out his clothes in protest^(B) and said to them, “Your blood be on your own heads!^(C) I am innocent of it.^(D) From now on I will go to the Gentiles.”^(E)

⁴ then if anyone hears the trumpet but does not heed the warning^(A) and the sword comes and takes their life, their blood will be on their own head.^(B)

¹⁶ For David had said to him, “Your blood be on your own head.^(A) Your own mouth testified against you when you said, ‘I killed the Lord’s anointed.’”

⁸ When I say to the wicked, ‘You wicked person, you will surely die,^(A)’ and you do not speak out to dissuade them from their ways, that wicked person will die for^[a] their sin, and I will hold you accountable for their blood.^{(B) 9} But if you do warn the wicked person to turn from their ways and they do not do so,^(C) they will die for their sin, though you yourself will be saved.^(D)

Will such a man live? He will not! Because he has done all these detestable things, he is to be put to death; his blood will be on his own head.^(B)

¹³ I also shook^(A) out the folds of my robe and said, “In this way may God shake out of their house and possessions anyone who does not keep this promise. So may such a person be shaken out and emptied!”

At this the whole assembly said, “Amen,”^(B) and praised the Lord. And the people did as they had promised.

⁵¹ So they shook the dust off their feet^(A) as a warning to them and went to Iconium.^(B)

⁴ They are surprised that you do not join them in their reckless, wild living, and they heap abuse on you.^(A)

¹⁴ For you, brothers and sisters, became imitators^(A) of God’s churches in Judea,^(B) which are in Christ Jesus: You suffered from your own people^(C) the same things those churches suffered from the Jews ¹⁵ who killed the Lord Jesus^(D) and the prophets^(E) and also drove us out. They displease God and are hostile to everyone ¹⁶ in their effort to keep us from speaking to the Gentiles^(F) so that they may be saved. In this way they always heap up their sins to the limit.^(G) The wrath of God has come upon them at last.^[a]
