The Acts
6:1	And in those days, when the number of the disciples was multiplied,
	there arose a murmuring of the Grecians against the Hebrews, because
	their widows were neglected in the daily ministration.
6:2	Then the twelve called the multitude of the disciples unto them, and
	said, It is not reason that we should leave the word of God, and serve
	tables.
6:3	Wherefore, brethren, look ye out among you seven men of honest report,
	full of the Holy Ghost and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this
	business.
6:4	But we will give ourselves continually to prayer, and to 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 Ghost, and Philip, and Prochorus, and
	Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicolas a proselyte of Antioch:
6:6	Whom they set before the apostles: and when they had prayed, they laid
	their hands on them.
6:7	And the word of God increased; and the number of the disciples
	multiplied in Jerusalem greatly; and a great company of the priests were
	obedient to the faith.
6:8	And Stephen, full of faith and power, did great wonders and miracles
	among the people.
6:9	Then there arose certain of the synagogue, which is called the synagogue
	of the Libertines, and Cyrenians, and Alexandrians, and of them of
	Cilicia and of Asia, disputing with Stephen.
6:10	And they were not able to resist the wisdom and the spirit by which he
	spake.
6:11	Then they suborned men, which 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 caught him, and brought him to the council,
6:13	And set up false witnesses, which said, This man ceaseth not to speak
	blasphemous 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 us.
6:15	And all that sat in the council, looking stedfastly on him, saw his face
	as it had been the face of an angel.
