King James Version with Apocrypha
Greek New Testament: Byzantine Text (Robinson–Pierpont 2018)
1And 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.
1εν δε ταισ ημεραισ ταυταισ πληθυνοντων των μαθητων εγενετο γογγυσμοσ των ελληνιστων προσ τουσ εβραιουσ οτι παρεθεωρουντο εν τη διακονια τη καθημερινη αι χηραι αυτων
2Then 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.
2προσκαλεσαμενοι δε οι δωδεκα το πληθοσ των μαθητων ειπον ουκ αρεστον εστιν ημασ καταλειψαντασ τον λογον του θεου διακονειν τραπεζαισ
3Wherefore, 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.
3επισκεψασθε ουν αδελφοι ανδρασ εξ υμων μαρτυρουμενουσ επτα πληρεισ πνευματοσ αγιου και σοφιασ ουσ καταστησωμεν επι τησ χρειασ ταυτησ
4But we will give ourselves continually to prayer, and to the ministry of the word.
4ημεισ δε τη προσευχη και τη διακονια του λογου προσκαρτερησομεν
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:
5και ηρεσεν ο λογοσ ενωπιον παντοσ του πληθουσ και εξελεξαντο στεφανον ανδρα πληρησ πιστεωσ και πνευματοσ αγιου και φιλιππον και προχορον και νικανορα και τιμωνα και παρμεναν και νικολαον προσηλυτον αντιοχεα
6Whom they set before the apostles: and when they had prayed, they laid their hands on them.
6ουσ εστησαν ενωπιον των αποστολων και προσευξαμενοι επεθηκαν αυτοισ τασ χειρασ
7And 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.
7και ο λογοσ του θεου ηυξανεν και επληθυνετο ο αριθμοσ των μαθητων εν ιερουσαλημ σφοδρα πολυσ τε οχλοσ των ιερεων υπηκουον τη πιστει
8And Stephen, full of faith and power, did great wonders and miracles among the people.
8στεφανοσ δε πληρησ πιστεωσ και δυναμεωσ εποιει τερατα και σημεια μεγαλα εν τω λαω
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.
9ανεστησαν δε τινεσ των εκ τησ συναγωγησ τησ λεγομενησ λιβερτινων και κυρηναιων και αλεξανδρεων και των απο κιλικιασ και ασιασ συζητουντεσ τω στεφανω
10And they were not able to resist the wisdom and the spirit by which he spake.
10και ουκ ισχυον αντιστηναι τη σοφια και τω πνευματι ω ελαλει
11Then they suborned men, which said, We have heard him speak blasphemous words against Moses, and against God.
11τοτε υπεβαλον ανδρασ λεγοντασ οτι ακηκοαμεν αυτου λαλουντοσ ρηματα βλασφημα εισ μωσην και τον θεον
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,
12συνεκινησαν τε τον λαον και τουσ πρεσβυτερουσ και τουσ γραμματεισ και επισταντεσ συνηρπασαν αυτον και ηγαγον εισ το συνεδριον
13And set up false witnesses, which said, This man ceaseth not to speak blasphemous words against this holy place, and the law:
13εστησαν τε μαρτυρασ ψευδεισ λεγοντασ ο ανθρωποσ ουτοσ ου παυεται ρηματα βλασφημα λαλων κατα του τοπου του αγιου και του νομου
14For we have heard him say, that this Jesus of Nazareth shall destroy this place, and shall change the customs which Moses delivered us.
14ακηκοαμεν γαρ αυτου λεγοντοσ οτι ιησουσ ο ναζωραιοσ ουτοσ καταλυσει τον τοπον τουτον και αλλαξει τα εθη α παρεδωκεν ημιν μωσησ
15And all that sat in the council, looking stedfastly on him, saw his face as it had been the face of an angel.
15και ατενισαντεσ εισ αυτον απαντεσ οι καθεζομενοι εν τω συνεδριω ειδον το προσωπον αυτου ωσει προσωπον αγγελου
