4He reasoned in the synagogue every Sabbath, and persuaded Jews and Greeks.
5But when Silas and Timothy came down from Macedonia, Paul was compelled by the Spirit, testifying to the Jews that Jesus was the Christ.
6When they opposed him and blasphemed, he shook out his clothing and said to them, "Your blood be on your own heads! I am clean. From now on, I will go to the Gentiles!"
7He departed there, and went into the house of a certain man named Justus, one who worshipped God, whose house was next door to the synagogue.
8Crispus, the ruler of the synagogue, believed in the Lord with all his house. Many of the Corinthians, hearing, believed and were baptized.
9The Lord said to Paul in the night by a vision, "Don`t be afraid, but speak and don`t be silent;
10for I am with you, and no one will attack you to harm you, for I have many people in this city."
