5 Now when both Silas and Timothy came down from Macedonia, Paul began to be occupied with[b] the message, solemnly testifying to the Jews that the Christ[c] was Jesus. 6 And when[d] they resisted and reviled him,[e] he shook out his[f] clothes and[g] said to them, “Your blood be on your own heads! I am guiltless! From now on I will go to the Gentiles!”
