Berean Standard Bible
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1In those days when the disciples were increasing in number, the Grecian Jews among them began to grumble against the Hebraic Jews because their widows were being overlooked in the daily distribution of food.
1那時，門徒增多，有說希臘話的 猶太 人向 希伯來 人發怨言，因為在天天的供給上忽略了他們的寡婦。
2So the Twelve summoned all the disciples and said, “It is unacceptable for us to neglect the word of God in order to wait on tables.
2十二使徒叫眾門徒來，對他們說：「我們撇下上帝的道去管理飯食，原是不合宜的。
3Therefore, brothers, select from among you seven men confirmed to be full of the Spirit and wisdom. We will appoint this responsibility to them
3所以弟兄們，當從你們中間選出七個有好名聲、被 聖 靈充滿、智慧充足的人，我們就派他們管理這事。
4and will devote ourselves to prayer and to the ministry of the word.”
4但我們要專心以祈禱、傳道為事。」
5This proposal pleased the whole group. They chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit, as well as Philip, Prochorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, and Nicolas from Antioch, a convert to Judaism.
5大眾都喜悅這話，就揀選了 司提反 ，乃是大有信心、聖靈充滿的人，又揀選 腓利 、 伯羅哥羅 、 尼迦挪 、 提門 、 巴米拿 ，並進 猶太 教的 安提阿 人 尼哥拉 ，
6They presented these seven to the apostles, who prayed and laid their hands on them.
6叫他們站在使徒面前。使徒禱告了，就按手在他們頭上。
7So the word of God continued to spread. The number of disciples in Jerusalem grew rapidly, and a great number of priests became obedient to the faith.
7上帝的道興旺起來；在 耶路撒冷 門徒數目加增的甚多，也有許多祭司信從了這道。
8Now Stephen, who was full of grace and power, was performing great wonders and signs among the people.
8司提反 滿得恩惠、能力，在民間行了大奇事和神蹟。
9But resistance arose from what was called the Synagogue of the Freedmen, including Cyrenians, Alexandrians, and men from the provinces of Cilicia and Asia. They began to argue with Stephen,
9當時有稱 利百地拿 會堂的幾個人，並有 古利奈 、 亞歷山大 、 基利家 、 亞細亞 各處會堂的幾個人，都起來和 司提反 辯論。
10but they could not stand up to his wisdom or the Spirit by whom he spoke.
10司提反 是以智慧和 聖 靈說話，眾人敵擋不住，
11Then they prompted some men to say, “We heard Stephen speak words of blasphemy against Moses and against God.”
11就買出人來說：「我們聽見他說謗讟 摩西 和上帝的話。」
12So they stirred up the people, elders, and scribes and confronted Stephen. They seized him and brought him before the Sanhedrin,
12他們又聳動了百姓、長老，並文士，就忽然來捉拿他，把他帶到公會去，
13where they presented false witnesses who said, “This man never stops speaking against this holy place and against the law.
13設下假見證，說：「這個人說話，不住地糟踐聖所和律法。
14For we have heard him say that Jesus of Nazareth will destroy this place and change the customs that Moses handed down to us.”
14我們曾聽見他說，這 拿撒勒 人耶穌要毀壞此地，也要改變 摩西 所交給我們的規條。」
15All who were sitting in the Sanhedrin looked intently at Stephen, and they saw that his face was like the face of an angel.
15在公會裏坐着的人都定睛看他，見他的面貌，好像天使的面貌。
