But when you enter a town and are not welcomed, go into its streets and say,
And whether they listen or fail to listen—for they are a rebellious people—they will know that a prophet has been among them.
If anyone will not welcome you or listen to your words, leave that home or town and shake the dust off your feet.
‘Even the dust of your town we wipe from our feet as a warning to you. Yet be sure of this: The kingdom of God has come near.’
Heal the sick who are there and tell them, ‘The kingdom of God has come near to you.’
If people do not welcome you, leave their town and shake the dust off your feet as a testimony against them.”

But when they opposed Paul and became abusive, he shook out his clothes in protest and said to them, “Your blood be on your own heads! I am innocent of it. From now on I will go to the Gentiles.”
