Acts 18:6

Paul, Silas, And Timothy In Corinth

⁵ By the time Silas and Timothy arrived from Macedonia, Paul was wholly absorbed in preaching the message and was enthusiastically assuring the Jews that Jesus is the Christ. ⁶ But as they opposed and abused him, he shook out his clothes in protest and said to them, "Your blood be upon your own heads! I am not to blame for it myself. Hereafter I am going to the heathen." ⁷ So he moved into the house of a pagan named Titus Justus, who worshiped the true God; his house was next to the synagogue.
