THE HOLY BIBLE Authorized King James

Acts (Author Luke)

6:9Then 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.

6:10And they were not able to resist the wisdom and the spirit by which he spake.

6:11Then they suborned men, which said, We have heard him speak blasphemous words against Moses, and against God.

6:12And they stirred up the people, and the elders, and the scribes, and came upon him, and caught him, and brought him to the council,

6:13And set up false witnesses, which said, This man ceaseth not to speak blasphemous words against this holy place, and the law:

6:14For we have heard him say, that this Jesus of Nazareth shall destroy this place, and shall change the customs which Moses delivered us.

6:15And all that sat in the council, looking stedfastly on him, saw his face as it had been the face of an angel.

7:57Then they cried out with a loud voice, and stopped their ears, and ran upon him with one accord,

7:58And cast him out of the city, and stoned him: and the witnesses laid down their clothes at a young man's feet, whose name was Saul.

7:59And they stoned Stephen, calling upon God, and saying, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.

8:1And Saul was consenting unto his death. And at that time there was a great persecution against the church which was at Jerusalem; and they were all scattered abroad throughout the regions of Judaea and Samaria, except the apostles.

8:2And devout men carried Stephen to his burial, and made great lamentation over him.

8:3As for Saul, he made havock of the church, entering into every house, and haling men and women committed them to prison.
