⁵ But when ^(A)Silas and Timothy ^(B)came down from ^(C)Macedonia, Paul began devoting himself completely to the word, solemnly ^(D)bearing witness to the Jews that ^(E)Jesus is the ^[a]Christ. ⁶ But when they resisted and blasphemed, he ^(F)shook out his garments and said to them, “Your ^(G)blood be on your own heads! I am clean. From now on I will go ^(H)to the Gentiles.” ⁷ Then he left there and went to the house of a man named ^[b]Titius Justus, a ^(I)God-fearer, whose house was next to the synagogue. ^8 (J)And Crispus, ^(K)the leader of the synagogue, believed in the Lord ^(L)with all his household, and many of the ^(M)Corinthians when they heard were believing and being baptized. ⁹ And the Lord said to Paul in the night by ^(N)a vision, “Do not be afraid, but go on speaking and do not be silent; ¹⁰ for I am with you, and no man will lay a hand on you in order to harm you, for I have many people in this city.” ¹¹ And he stayed there a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.
