Acts 6:9-14

9But some men from what was called the Synagogue of the Freedmen, including both 1Cyrenians and 2Alexandrians, and some from 3Cilicia and 45Asia, rose up and argued with Stephen.

10But they were unable to cope with the wisdom and the Spirit with which he was speaking.

11Then they secretly induced men to say, “We have heard him speak blasphemous words against Moses and against God.”

12And they stirred up the people, the elders and the scribes, and they 6came up to him and dragged him away and brought him 7before 8the 9Council.

13They put forward 10false witnesses who said, “This man incessantly speaks against this 11holy place and the Law;

14for we have heard him say that 12this Nazarene, Jesus, will destroy this place and alter 13the customs which Moses handed down to us.”
