4So Paul reasoned in the synagogue every Sabbath. He persuaded both Jews and Greeks.
5But when Silas and Timothy came down from Macedonia, Paul was compelled by the Spirit to testify to the Jews that Jesus was the Christ.
6When the Jews opposed and insulted him, Paul shook out his garment at them and said to them, “May your blood be upon your own heads; I am innocent. From now on I will go to the Gentiles.”
7Then he left from there and went to the house of Titius Justus, a man who worshiped God. His house was next to the synagogue.
8Crispus, the leader of the synagogue, believed in the Lord, together with all those who lived in his house; and many of the Corinthians who heard about it believed and were baptized.
