Acts 13:44-46
Living Bible
44 The following week almost the entire city turned out to hear them preach the Word of God.
45 But when the Jewish leaders[a] saw the crowds, they were jealous, and cursed and argued against whatever Paul said.
46 Then Paul and Barnabas spoke out boldly and declared, “It was necessary that this Good News from God should be given first to you Jews. But since you have rejected it and shown yourselves unworthy of eternal life—well, we will offer it to Gentiles.
