They attacked Jason's house, seeking to bring Paul and Silas out to the assembly. 6 When they did not find them, they dragged Jason and some other believers before the city rulers, shouting, 'These men who have turned the world upside down have now come here too.' 7 And Jason has welcomed them. They are all acting contrary to Caesar's decrees, saying that there is another king—Jesus. 8 They stirred up the crowd and the city rulers as they heard these things. 9 After receiving a pledge from Jason and the others, they released them. 10 Immediately, the brothers sent Paul and Silas away by night to Berea. Upon arriving, they went into the synagogue of the Jews.

You are honored, but we are dishonored! 11 To this very hour we go hungry and thirsty, we are poorly clothed, we are brutally treated, and we are homeless. 12 We work hard with our own hands. When we are insulted, we bless; when we are persecuted, we endure it. 13 When we are slandered, we respond gently. We have become like the scum of the earth, the refuse of all, even until now.
