AndG1161 inG1722 thoseG5025 daysG2250, when the numberG4129 of the disciplesG3101 was multipliedG4129, there aroseG1096 a murmuringG1112 of the GreciansG1675 againstG4314 the HebrewsG1445, becauseG3754 theirG846 widowsG5503 were neglectedG3865 inG1722 the dailyG2522 ministrationG1248.
ThenG1161 the twelveG1427 calledG4341 the multitudeG4128 of the disciplesG3101 unto them, and saidG2036, It isG2076 notG3756 reasonG701 that weG2248 should leaveG2641 the wordG3056 of GodG2316, and serveG1247 tablesG5132.
WhereforeG3767, brethrenG80, look ye outG1980 amongG1537 youG5216 sevenG2033 menG435 of honest reportG3140, fullG4134 of the HolyG40 GhostG4151 andG2532 wisdomG4678, whomG3739 we may appointG2525 overG1909 thisG5026 businessG5532.
ButG1161 weG2249 will give ourselves continuallyG4342 to prayerG4335, andG2532 to the ministryG1248 of the wordG3056.
AndG2532 the sayingG3056 pleasedG700+G1799 the wholeG3956 multitudeG4128: andG2532 they choseG1586 StephenG4736, a manG435 fullG4134 of faithG4102 andG2532 of the HolyG40 GhostG4151, andG2532 PhilipG5376, andG2532 ProchorusG4402, andG2532 NicanorG3527, andG2532 TimonG5096, andG2532 ParmenasG3937, andG2532 NicolasG3532 a proselyteG4339 of AntiochG491:
WhomG3739 they setG2476 beforeG1799 the apostlesG652: andG2532 when they had prayedG4336, they laidG2007 their handsG5495 onG2007 themG846.
AndG2532 the wordG3056 of GodG2316 increasedG837; andG2532 the numberG706 of the disciplesG3101 multipliedG4129 inG1722 JerusalemG2419 greatlyG4970; andG5037 a greatG4183 companyG3793 of the priestsG2409 were obedientG5219 to the faithG4102.
AndG1161 StephenG4736, fullG4134 of faithG4102 andG2532 powerG1411, didG4160 greatG3173 wondersG5059 andG2532 miraclesG4592 amongG1722 the peopleG2992.
ThenG1161 there aroseG450 certainG5100 ofG1537 the synagogueG4864, whichG3588 is calledG3004 the synagogue of the LibertinesG3032, andG2532 CyreniansG2956, andG2532 AlexandriansG221, andG2532 of them ofG575 CiliciaG2791 andG2532 of AsiaG773, disputingG4802 with StephenG4736.
AndG2532 they wereG2480 notG3756 ableG2480 to resistG436 the wisdomG4678 andG2532 the spiritG4151 by whichG3739 he spakeG2980.
ThenG5119 they subornedG5260 menG435, which saidG3004+G3754, We have heardG191 himG846 speakG2980 blasphemousG989 wordsG4487 againstG1519 MosesG3475, andG2532 against GodG2316.
AndG5037 they stirred upG4787 the peopleG2992, andG2532 the eldersG4245, andG2532 the scribesG1122, andG2532 came uponG2186 him, and caughtG4884 himG846, andG2532 broughtG71 him toG1519 the councilG4892,
AndG5037 set upG2476 falseG5571 witnessesG3144, which saidG3004, ThisG5127 manG444 ceasethG3973 notG3756 to speakG2980 blasphemousG989 wordsG4487 againstG2596 thisG3778 holyG40 placeG5117, andG2532 the lawG3551:
ForG1063 we have heardG191 himG846 sayG3004, thatG3754 thisG5126 JesusG2424 of NazarethG3480 shall destroyG2647 thisG3778 placeG5117, andG2532 shall changeG236 the customsG1485 whichG3739 MosesG3475 deliveredG3860 usG2254. {customs: or, rites}
AndG2532 allG537 that satG2516 inG1722 the councilG4892, looking stedfastlyG816 onG1519 himG846, sawG1492 hisG846 faceG4383 as it had beenG5616 the faceG4383 of an angelG32.

WhereinG1722+G3739 I suffer troubleG2553, asG5613 an evil doerG2557, even untoG3360 bondsG1199; butG235 the wordG3056 of GodG2316 isG1210 notG3756 boundG1210.
