Acts 7:51-59
51You stiff-neckedG4644 people with uncircumcisedG564 heartsG2588 andG2532 earsG3775! YouG4771 alwaysG104 resistG496 theG3588 HolyG40 SpiritG4151, justG2532 asG5613 yourG4771 fathersG3962 did. 52WhichG5101 of theG3588 prophetsG4396 did yourG4771 fathersG3962 failG3756 to persecuteG1377? They even killedG2532G615 those whoG3588 foretoldG4293G4012 theG3588 comingG1660 of theG3588 Righteous OneG1342. And nowG3568 youG4771 areG1096 His betrayersG4273 andG2532 murderersG5406— 53you whoG3748 receivedG2983 theG3588 lawG3551 ordainedG1296 byG1519 angelsG32, yetG2532 have not keptG3756G5442 it.”
On hearingG191 thisG3778, the members of the Sanhedrin were enragedG1282G3588G846G2588,1 andG2532 they gnashedG1031 their teethG3599 atG1909 himG846. 55ButG1161 Stephen, fullG4134 of the Holy SpiritG40G4151, looked intentlyG816 intoG1519 heavenG3772 and sawG3708 the gloryG1391 of GodG2316 andG2532 JesusG2424 standingG2476 atG1537 the right handG1188 of GodG2316. 56“LookG2400,” he saidG2036, “I seeG2334 heavenG3772 openG1272 andG2532 theG3588 SonG5207 of ManG444 standingG2476 atG1537 the rightG1188 hand of GodG2316.”
57At thisG1161 they coveredG4912 theirG846 earsG3775, cried outG2896 in a loud voiceG3173G5456, andG2532 rushedG3729 togetherG3661 atG1909 himG846. 58They draggedG1544 him out ofG1854 theG3588 cityG4172 and began to stoneG3036 him. MeanwhileG2532 theG3588 witnessesG3144 laidG659 theirG846 garmentsG2440 atG3844 theG3588 feetG4228 of a young manG3494 namedG2564 SaulG4569.
59While they were stoningG3036 him, StephenG4736 appealedG1941G2532G3004, “LordG2962 JesusG2424, receiveG1209 myG1473 spiritG4151.”
