Acts 18:4-11

4And Paul was reasoning 1in the synagogue every 2Sabbath and trying to persuade 3Jews and Greeks.

5But when 4Silas and Timothy 5came down from 6Macedonia, Paul began devoting himself completely to the word, 7testifying to the Jews that 8Jesus was the 9Christ. 6But when they resisted and blasphemed, he 10shook out his garments and said to them, “Your 11blood is 12on your own heads! I am clean. From now on I will go 13to the Gentiles.” 7Then he left 14the synagogue and went to the house of a man named 15Titius Justus, 16a worshiper of God, whose house was next door to the synagogue. 817Crispus, 18the leader of the synagogue, believed in the Lord 19together with his entire household; and many of the 20Corinthians, as they listened to Paul, were believing and being baptized. 9And the Lord said to Paul by 21a vision at night, “Do not be afraid any longer, but go on speaking and do not be silent; 10for I am with you, and no one will attack you to harm you, for I have many people in this city.” 11And he settled there for a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.
