When Silas and Timothy arrived from Macedonia, Paul was occupied with proclaiming the word,[a] testifying to the Jews that the Messiah[b] was Jesus.(A) When they opposed and reviled him, in protest he shook the dust from his clothes[c] and said to them, “Your blood be on your own heads! I am innocent. From now on I will go to the gentiles.”(B) Then he left the synagogue[d] and went to the house of a man named Titius[e] Justus, a worshiper of God; his house was next door to the synagogue.(C) Crispus, the official of the synagogue, became a believer in the Lord, together with all his household, and many of the Corinthians who heard Paul became believers and were baptized.(D) One night the Lord said to Paul in a vision, “Do not be afraid, but speak and do not be silent,(E) 10 for I am with you, and no one will lay a hand on you to harm you, for there are many in this city who are my people.”(F) 11 He stayed there a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.

But when (A)Silas and Timothy (B)came down from (C)Macedonia, Paul began devoting himself completely to the word, (D)testifying to the Jews that (E)Jesus was the [a]Christ. But when they resisted and blasphemed, he (F)shook out his garments and said to them, “Your (G)blood is [b]on your own heads! I am clean. From now on I will go (H)to the Gentiles.” Then he left [c]the synagogue and went to the house of a man named [d]Titius Justus, (I)a worshiper of God, whose house was next door to the synagogue. (J)Crispus, (K)the leader of the synagogue, believed in the Lord (L)together with his entire household; and many of the (M)Corinthians, as they listened to Paul, were believing and being baptized. And the Lord said to Paul by (N)a vision at night, “Do not be afraid any longer, but go on speaking and do not be silent; 10 for I am with you, and no one will attack you to harm you, for I have many people in this city.” 11 And he settled there for a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.
