1In and the days those increasing the disciples, came a murmuring of the Hellenists to the Hebrews, because were overlooked in the service the daily the widows of them. 2Having called and the twelve the multitude of the disciples, said: Not proper it is us having left the word of the God, to serve tables. 3Look you out therefore, brethren, men from of you being attested seven, full of spirit and wisdom, whom we will appoint to the need this; 4we but to the prayer and to the service of the word will constantly attend. 5And pleased the word in presence of all of the multitude; and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and spirit holy, and Philip, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicolaus a proselyte of Antioch; 6whom they placed in presence of the apostles; and having prayed they put to them the hands. 7And the word of the God grew, and was multiplied the number of the disciples in Jerusalem greatly; great and a crowd of the priests were obedient to the faith. 8Stephen and full of favor and of power performed prodigies and signs great among the people. 9Stood up and some of those from the synagogue of that being called of Libertines, and of Cyrenians, and of Alexandrians, and of those from Cilicia and Asia, disputing with the Stephen; 10and not were able to resist the wisdom and the spirit with which he spoke. 11Then they thrust under men, saying: That we have heard him speaking words blasphemous against Moses and the God. 12They stirred up and the people and the elders and the scribes, and having come upon they seized him, and led into the high council, 13stood up and witnesses false, saying: The man this not ceases words speaking against the place of the holy and the law. 14We have heard for him saying: That Jesus the Nazarene this will destroy the place this, and will change the customs, which delivered to us Moses. 15And having gazed on him all those being seated in the high–council, saw the face of him like a face of a messenger.
