4 | And he argued in the synagogue every sabbath, and persuaded Jews and Greeks. |
5 | When Silas and Timothy arrived from Macedo'nia, Paul was occupied with preaching, testifying to the Jews that the Christ was Jesus. |
6 | And when they opposed and reviled him, he shook out his garments and said to them, "Your blood be upon your heads! I am innocent. From now on I will go to the Gentiles." |
7 | And he left there and went to the house of a man named Titius Justus, a worshiper of God; his house was next door to the synagogue. |
8 | Crispus, the ruler of the synagogue, believed in the Lord, together with all his household; and many of the Corinthians hearing Paul believed and were baptized. |
9 | And the Lord said to Paul one night in a vision, "Do not be afraid, but speak and do not be silent; |
10 | for I am with you, and no man shall attack you to harm you; for I have many people in this city." |
11 | And he stayed a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them. |
