6:1 Now
in
these
days,
when
the
number
of
the
disciples
was
multiplying,
there
arose
a
murmuring
of
the
Grecian
Jews
against
the
Hebrews,
because
their
widows
were
neglected
in
the
daily
ministration.
6:2 And
the
twelve
called
the
multitude
of
the
disciples
unto
them,
and
said,
It
is
not
fit
that
we
should
forsake
the
word
of
God,
and
serve
tables.
6:3 Look
ye
out
therefore,
brethren,
from
among
you
seven
men
of
good
report,
full
of
the
Spirit
and
of
wisdom,
whom
we
may
appoint
over
this
business.
6:4 But
we
will
continue
stedfastly
in
prayer,
and
in
the
ministry
of
the
word.
6:5 And
the
saying
pleased
the
whole
multitude:
and
they
chose
Stephen,
a
man
full
of
faith
and
of
the
Holy
Spirit,
and
Philip,
and
Prochorus,
and
Nicanor,
and
Timon,
and
Parmenas,
and
Nicolaus
a
proselyte
of
Antioch;
6:6 whom
they
set
before
the
apostles:
and
when
they
had
prayed,
they
laid
their
hands
upon
them.
6:7 And
the
word
of
God
increased;
and
the
number
of
the
disciples
multiplied
in
Jerusalem
exceedingly;
and
a
great
company
of
the
priests
were
obedient
to
the
faith.
6:8 And
Stephen,
full
of
grace
and
power,
wrought
great
wonders
and
signs
among
the
people.
6:9 But
there
arose
certain
of
them
that
were
of
the
synagogue
called
[the
synagogue]
of
the
Libertines,
and
of
the
Cyrenians,
and
of
the
Alexandrians,
and
of
them
of
Cilicia
and
Asia,
disputing
with
Stephen.
6:10 And
they
were
not
able
to
withstand
the
wisdom
and
the
Spirit
by
which
he
spake.
6:11 Then
they
suborned
men,
who
said,
We
have
heard
him
speak
blasphemous
words
against
Moses,
and
[against]
God.
6:12 And
they
stirred
up
the
people,
and
the
elders,
and
the
scribes,
and
came
upon
him,
and
seized
him,
and
brought
him
into
the
council,
6:13 and
set
up
false
witnesses,
who
said,
This
man
ceaseth
not
to
speak
words
against
this
holy
place,
and
the
law:
6:14 for
we
have
heard
him
say,
that
this
Jesus
of
Nazareth
shall
destroy
this
place,
and
shall
change
the
customs
which
Moses
delivered
unto
us.
6:15 And
all
that
sat
in
the
council,
fastening
their
eyes
on
him,
saw
his
face
as
it
had
been
the
face
of
an
angel.
