For you have brought these men here who are neither temple robbers<n id="1" /> nor blasphemers of our goddess.<n id="2" />

But when the Jews saw the crowds, they were filled with jealousy,<n id="1" /> and they began to contradict<n id="2" /> what Paul was saying<n id="3" /> by reviling him.<n id="4" />

I punished<n id="1" /> them often in all the synagogues<n id="2" /> and tried to force<n id="3" /> them to blaspheme. Because I was so furiously enraged<n id="4" /> at them, I went to persecute<n id="5" /> them even in foreign cities.p>

When they opposed him<n id="1" /> and reviled him,<n id="2" /> he protested by shaking out his clothes<n id="3" /> and said to them, &#8220;Your blood<n id="4" /> be on your own heads! I am guiltless!<n id="5" /> From now on I will go to the Gentiles!&#8221;
