Revised Young's Literal Translation
New Testament
| 6:1 | And in these days, the disciples multiplying, there came a murmuring of the Hellenists at the Hebrews, because their widows were being overlooked in the daily ministration, |
| 6:2 | and the twelve, having called near the multitude of the disciples, said, 'It is not pleasing that we, having left the word of God, do minister at tables; |
| 6:3 | look out, therefore, brethren, seven men of you who are well testified of, full of the Holy Spirit and wisdom, whom we may set over this necessity, |
| 6:4 | and we to prayer, and to the ministration of the word, will give ourselves continually.' |
| 6:5 | And the thing was pleasing before all the multitude, and they did choose Stephen, a man full of faith and the Holy Spirit, and Philip, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicolaus, a proselyte of Antioch, |
| 6:6 | whom they did set before the apostles, and they, having prayed, laid on them their hands. |
| 6:7 | And the word of God did increase, and the number of the disciples did multiply in Jerusalem exceedingly; a great multitude also of the priests were obedient to the faith. |
| 6:8 | And Stephen, full of faith and power, was doing great wonders and signs among the people, |
| 6:9 | and there arose certain of those of the synagogue, called of the Libertines, and Cyrenians, and Alexandrians, and of those from Cilicia, and Asia, disputing with Stephen, |
| 6:10 | and they were not able to resist the wisdom and the spirit with which he was speaking; |
| 6:11 | then they suborned men, saying -- 'We have heard him speaking evil sayings in regard to Moses and God.' |
| 6:12 | They did stir up also the people, and the elders, and the scribes, and having come upon him, they caught him, and brought him to the sanhedrin; |
| 6:13 | they set up also false witnesses, saying, 'This one does not cease to speak evil sayings against this holy place and the law, |
| 6:14 | for we have heard him saying, That this Jesus the Nazarean shall overthrow this place, and shall change the customs that Moses delivered to us;' |
| 6:15 | and gazing at him, all those sitting in the sanhedrin saw his face as it were the face of a messenger. |
