5 Now when both Silas and Timothy came down from Macedonia, Paul began to be occupied with the message, solemnly testifying to the Jews that the Christ was Jesus.
6 And when they resisted and reviled him, he shook out his clothes and said to them, “Your blood be on your own heads! I am guiltless! From now on I will go to the Gentiles!”
7 And leaving there, he entered into the house of someone named Titius Justus, a worshiper of God whose house was next door to the synagogue.
8 And Crispus, the ruler of the synagogue, believed in the Lord together with his whole household. And many of the Corinthians, when they heard about it, believed and were baptized.
9 And the Lord said to Paul by a vision in the night, “Do not be afraid, but speak and do not keep silent,
10 because I am with you and no one will attack you to harm you, because many people are mine in this city.”
11 So he stayed a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.
