Acts 6:1--8:40

And
<1161>
in
<1722>
those
<5025>
days
<2250>_,
when the number
<4129> (0)
of the disciples
<3101>
was multiplied
<4129> (5723)_,
there arose
<1096> (5633)
a murmuring
<1112>
of the Grecians
<1675>
against
<4314>
the Hebrews
<1445>_,
because
<3754>
their
<846>
widows
<5503>
were neglected
<3865> (5712)
in
<1722>
the daily
<2522>
ministration
<1248>_.
Then
<1161>
the twelve
<1427>
called
<4341> (5666)
the multitude
<4128>
of the disciples
<3101>
[unto them], and said
<2036> (5627)_,
It is
<2076> (5748)
not
<3756>
reason
<701>
that we
<2248>
should leave
<2641> (5660)
the word
<3056>
of God
<2316>_,
and serve
<1247> (5721)
tables
<5132>_.
Wherefore
<3767>_,
brethren
<80>_,
look ye out
<1980> (5663)
among
<1537>
you
<5216>
seven
<2033>
men
<435>
of honest report
<3140> (5746)_,
full
<4134>
of the Holy
<40>
Ghost
<4151>
and
<2532>
wisdom
<4678>_,
whom
<3739>
we may appoint
<2525> (5692)
over
<1909>
this
<5026>
business
<5532>_.
But
<1161>
we
<2249>
will give ourselves continually
<4342> (5692)
to prayer
<4335>_,
and
<2532>
to the ministry
<1248>
of the word
<3056>_.
And
<2532>
the saying
<3056>
pleased
<700> (5656) <1799>
the whole
<3956>
multitude
<4128>_:
and
<2532>
they chose
<1586> (5668)
Stephen
<4736>_,
a man
<435>
full
<4134>
of faith
<4102>
and
<2532>
of the Holy
<40>
Ghost
<4151>_,
and
<2532>
Philip
<5376>_,
and
<2532>
Prochorus
<4402>_,
and
<2532>
Nicanor
<3527>_,
and
<2532>
Timon
<5096>_,
and
<2532>
Parmenas
<3937>_,
and
<2532>
Nicolas
<3532>
a proselyte
<4339>
of Antioch
<491>_:
Whom
<3739>
they set
<2476> (5627)
before
<1799>
the apostles
<652>_:
and
<2532>
when they had prayed
<4336> (5666)_,
they laid
<2007> (0)
[their] hands
<5495>
on
<2007> (5656)
them
<846>_.
And
<2532>
the word
<3056>
of God
<2316>
increased
<837> (5707)_;
and
<2532>
the number
<706>
of the disciples
<3101>
multiplied
<4129> (5712)
in
<1722>
Jerusalem
<2419>
greatly
<4970>_;
and
<5037>
a great
<4183>
company
<3793>
of the priests
<2409>
were obedient
<5219> (5707)
to the faith
<4102>_.
And
<1161>
Stephen
<4736>_,
full
<4134>
of faith
<4102>
and
<2532>
power
<1411>_,
did
<4160> (5707)
great
<3173>
wonders
<5059>
and
<2532>
miracles
<4592>
among
<1722>
the people
<2992>_.
Then
<1161>
there arose
<450> (5656)
certain
<5100>
of
<1537>
the synagogue
<4864>_,
which
<3588>
is called
<3004> (5746)
[the synagogue] of the Libertines
<3032>_,
and
<2532>
Cyrenians
<2956>_,
and
<2532>
Alexandrians
<221>_,
and
<2532>
of them of
<575>
Cilicia
<2791>
and
<2532>
of Asia
<773>_,
disputing
<4802> (5723)
with Stephen
<4736>_.
And
<2532>
they were
<2480> (0)
not
<3756>
able
<2480> (5707)
to resist
<436> (5629)
the wisdom
<4678>
and
<2532>
the spirit
<4151>
by which
<3739>
he spake
<2980> (5707)_.
Then
<5119>
they suborned
<5260> (5627)
men
<435>_,
which said
<3004> (5723)_,

<3754>
We have heard
<191> (5754)
him
<846>
speak
<2980> (5723)
blasphemous
<989>
words
<4487>
against
<1519>
Moses
<3475>_,
and
<2532>
[against] God
<2316>_.
And
<5037>
they stirred up
<4787> (5656)
the people
<2992>_,
and
<2532>
the elders
<4245>_,
and
<2532>
the scribes
<1122>_,
and
<2532>
came upon
<2186> (5631)
[him], and caught
<4884> (5656)
him
<846>_,
and
<2532>
brought
<71> (5627)
[him] to
<1519>
the council
<4892>_,
And
<5037>
set up
<2476> (5627)
false
<5571>
witnesses
<3144>_,
which said
<3004> (5723)_,
This
<5127>
man
<444>
ceaseth
<3973> (5731)
not
<3756>
to speak
<2980> (5723)
blasphemous
<989>
words
<4487>
against
<2596>
this
<3778>
holy
<40>
place
<5117>_,
and
<2532>
the law
<3551>_:
For
<1063>
we have heard
<191> (5754)
him
<846>
say
<3004> (5723)_,
that
<3754>
this
<5126>
Jesus
<2424>
of Nazareth
<3480>
shall destroy
<2647> (5692)
this
<3778>
place
<5117>_,
and
<2532>
shall change
<236> (5692)
the customs
<1485>
which
<3739>
Moses
<3475>
delivered
<3860> (5656)
us
<2254>_.
{customs: or, rites}
And
<2532>
all
<537>
that sat
<2516> (5740)
in
<1722>
the council
<4892>_,
looking stedfastly
<816> (5660)
on
<1519>
him
<846>_,
saw
<1492> (5627)
his
<846>
face
<4383>
as it had been
<5616>
the face
<4383>
of an angel
<32>_.
Then
<1161>
said
<2036> (5627)
the high priest
<749>_,
Are
<1487> <686> <2192> (5719)
these things
<5023>
so
<3779>_?
And
<1161>
he said
<5346> (5713)_,
Men
<435>_,
brethren
<80>_,
and
<2532>
fathers
<3962>_,
hearken
<191> (5657)_;
The God
<2316>
of glory
<1391>
appeared
<3700> (5681)
unto our
<2257>
father
<3962>
Abraham
<11>_,
when he was
<5607> (5752)
in
<1722>
Mesopotamia
<3318>_,
before
<4250> <2228>
he
<846>
dwelt
<2730> (5658)
in
<1722>
Charran
<5488>_,
And
<2532>
said
<2036> (5627)
unto
<4314>
him
<846>_,
Get thee
<1831> (5628)
out of
<1537>
thy
<4675>
country
<1093>_,
and
<2532>
from
<1537>
thy
<4675>
kindred
<4772>_,
and
<2532>
come
<1204> (5773)
into
<1519>
the land
<1093>
which
<3739> <302>
I shall shew
<1166> (5692)
thee
<4671>_.
Then
<5119>
came he
<1831> (5631)
out of
<1537>
the land
<1093>
of the Chaldaeans
<5466>_,
and dwelt
<2730> (5656)
in
<1722>
Charran
<5488>_:
and from thence
<2547>_,
when
<3326>
his
<846>
father
<3962>
was dead
<599> (5629)_,
he removed
<3351> (5656)
him
<846>
into
<1519>
this
<5026>
land
<1093>_,
wherein
<1519> <3739>
ye
<5210>
now
<3568>
dwell
<2730> (5719)_.
And
<2532>
he gave
<1325> (5656)
him
<846>
none
<3756>
inheritance
<2817>
in
<1722>
it
<846>_,
no, not
<3761>
[so much as] to set
<968> (0)
his foot
<4228>
on
<968>_:
yet
<2532>
he promised
<1861> (5662)
that he would give
<1325> (5629)
it
<846>
to him
<846>
for
<1519>
a possession
<2697>_,
and
<2532>
to his
<846>
seed
<4690>
after
<3326>
him
<846>_,
when [as yet] he
<846>
had
<5607> (5752)
no
<3756>
child
<5043>_.
And
<1161>
God
<2316>
spake
<2980> (5656)
on this wise
<3779>_,
That
<3754>
his
<846>
seed
<4690>
should
<2071> (5704)
sojourn
<3941>
in
<1722>
a strange
<245>
land
<1093>_;
and
<2532>
that they should bring
<1402> (0)
them
<846>
into bondage
<1402> (5692)_,
and
<2532>
entreat [them] evil
<2559> (5692)
four hundred
<5071>
years
<2094>_.
And
<2532>
the nation
<1484>
to whom
<3739> <1437>
they shall be in bondage
<1398> (5661)
will
<2919> (0)
I
<1473>
judge
<2919> (5692)_,
said
<2036> (5627)
God
<2316>_:
and
<2532>
after
<3326>
that
<5023>
shall they come forth
<1831> (5695)_,
and
<2532>
serve
<3000> (5692)
me
<3427>
in
<1722>
this
<5129>
place
<5117>_.
And
<2532>
he gave
<1325> (5656)
him
<846>
the covenant
<1242>
of circumcision
<4061>_:
and
<2532>
so
<3779>
[Abraham] begat
<1080> (5656)
Isaac
<2464>_,
and
<2532>
circumcised
<4059> (5627)
him
<846>
the eighth
<3590>
day
<2250>_;
and
<2532>
Isaac
<2464>
[begat] Jacob
<2384>_;
and
<2532>
Jacob
<2384>
[begat] the twelve
<1427>
patriarchs
<3966>_.
And
<2532>
the patriarchs
<3966>_,
moved with envy
<2206> (5660)_,
sold
<591> (5639)
Joseph
<2501>
into
<1519>
Egypt
<125>_:
but
<2532>
God
<2316>
was
<2258> (5713)
with
<3326>
him
<846>_,
And
<2532>
delivered
<1807> (5639)
him
<846>
out of
<1537>
all
<3956>
his
<846>
afflictions
<2347>_,
and
<2532>
gave
<1325> (5656)
him
<846>
favour
<5485>
and
<2532>
wisdom
<4678>
in the sight
<1726>
of Pharaoh
<5328>
king
<935>
of Egypt
<125>_;
and
<2532>
he made
<2525> (5656)
him
<846>
governor
<2233> (5740)
over
<1909>
Egypt
<125>
and
<2532>
all
<3650>
his
<846>
house
<3624>_.
Now
<1161>
there came
<2064> (5627)
a dearth
<3042>
over
<1909>
all
<3650>
the land
<1093>
of Egypt
<125>
and
<2532>
Chanaan
<5477>_,
and
<2532>
great
<3173>
affliction
<2347>_:
and
<2532>
our
<2257>
fathers
<3962>
found
<2147> (5707)
no
<3756>
sustenance
<5527>_.
But
<1161>
when Jacob
<2384>
heard
<191> (5660)
that there was
<5607> (5752)
corn
<4621>
in
<1722>
Egypt
<125>_,
he sent out
<1821> (5656)
our
<2257>
fathers
<3962>
first
<4412>_.
And
<2532>
at
<1722>
the second
<1208>
[time] Joseph
<2501>
was made known
<319> (5681)
to his
<846>
brethren
<80>_;
and
<2532>
Joseph's
<2501>
kindred
<1085>
was made
<1096> (5633)
known
<5318>
unto Pharaoh
<5328>_.
Then
<1161>
sent
<649> (5660)
Joseph
<2501>_,
and called
<3333> (5668)
his
<846>
father
<3962>
Jacob
<2384>
to [him], and
<2532>
all
<3956>
his
<846>
kindred
<4772>_,

<1722>
threescore
<1440>
and fifteen
<4002>
souls
<5590>_.
So
<1161>
Jacob
<2384>
went down
<2597> (5627)
into
<1519>
Egypt
<125>_,
and
<2532>
died
<5053> (5656)_,
he
<846>_,
and
<2532>
our
<2257>
fathers
<3962>_,
And
<2532>
were carried over
<3346> (5681)
into
<1519>
Sychem
<4966>_,
and
<2532>
laid
<5087> (5681)
in
<1722>
the sepulchre
<3418>
that
<3739>
Abraham
<11>
bought
<5608> (5662)
for a sum
<5092>
of money
<694>
of
<3844>
the sons
<5207>
of Emmor
<1697>
[the father
<3588>_]
of Sychem
<4966>_.
But
<1161>
when
<2531>
the time
<5550>
of the promise
<1860>
drew nigh
<1448> (5707)_,
which
<3739>
God
<2316>
had sworn
<3660> (5656)
to Abraham
<11>_,
the people
<2992>
grew
<837> (5656)
and
<2532>
multiplied
<4129> (5681)
in
<1722>
Egypt
<125>_,
Till
<891> <3757>
another
<2087>
king
<935>
arose
<450> (5627)_,
which
<3739>
knew
<1492> (5715)
not
<3756>
Joseph
<2501>_.
The same
<3778>
dealt subtilly
<2686> (5666)
with our
<2257>
kindred
<1085>_,
and evil entreated
<2559> (5656)
our
<2257>
fathers
<3962>_,
so that
<4160> (5721)
they cast out
<1570>
their
<846>
young children
<1025>_,
to the end
<1519>
they might
<2225> (0)
not
<3361>
live
<2225> (5745)_.
In
<1722>
which
<3739>
time
<2540>
Moses
<3475>
was born
<1080> (5681)_,
and
<2532>
was
<2258> (5713)
exceeding
<2316>
fair
<791>_,
and
<3739>
nourished up
<397> (5648)
in
<1722>
his
<846>
father's
<3962>
house
<3624>
three
<5140>
months
<3376>_:
{exceeding fair: or, fair to God}
And
<1161>
when he
<846>
was cast out
<1620> (5685)_,
Pharaoh's
<5328>
daughter
<2364>
took
<337> (0)
him
<846>
up
<337> (5639)_,
and
<2532>
nourished
<397> (5668)
him
<846>
for
<1519>
her own
<1438>
son
<5207>_.
And
<2532>
Moses
<3475>
was learned
<3811> (5681)
in all
<3956>
the wisdom
<4678>
of the Egyptians
<124>_,
and
<1161>
was
<2258> (5713)
mighty
<1415>
in
<1722>
words
<3056>
and
<2532>
in
<1722>
deeds
<2041>_.
And
<1161>
when
<5613>
he
<846>
was full
<4137> (5712)
forty years
<5063>
old
<5550>_,
it came
<305> (5627)
into
<1909>
his
<846>
heart
<2588>
to visit
<1980> (5664)
his
<846>
brethren
<80>
the children
<5207>
of Israel
<2474>_.
And
<2532>
seeing
<1492> (5631)
one
<5100>
[of them] suffer wrong
<91> (5746)_,
he defended
<292> (5662)
[him], and
<2532>
avenged
<1557> <4160> (5656)
him that was oppressed
<2669> (5746)_,
and smote
<3960> (5660)
the Egyptian
<124>_:
For
<1161>
he supposed
<3543> (5707)
his
<846>
brethren
<80>
would have understood
<4920> (5721)
how
<3754>
that God
<2316>
by
<1223>
his
<846>
hand
<5495>
would deliver
<1325> (5719) <4991>
them
<846>_:
but
<1161>
they understood
<4920> (5656)
not
<3756>_.
{For: or, Now}
And
<5037>
the next
<1966> (5752)
day
<2250>
he shewed himself
<3700> (5681)
unto them
<846>
as they strove
<3164> (5736)_,
and
<2532>
would have set
<4900> (5656)
them
<846>
at
<1519>
one again
<1515>_,
saying
<2036> (5631)_,
Sirs
<435>_,
ye
<5210>
are
<2075> (5748)
brethren
<80>_;
why
<2444>
do ye wrong
<91> (5719)
one to another
<240>_?
But
<1161>
he that did
<91> (0)
his neighbour
<4139>
wrong
<91> (5723)
thrust
<683> (0)
him
<846>
away
<683> (5662)_,
saying
<2036> (5631)_,
Who
<5101>
made
<2525> (5656)
thee
<4571>
a ruler
<758>
and
<2532>
a judge
<1348>
over
<1909>
us
<2248>_?
Wilt
<3361> <2309> (5719)
thou
<4771>
kill
<337> (5629)
me
<3165>_,
as
<3739> <5158>
thou diddest
<337> (5627)
the Egyptian
<124>
yesterday
<5504>_?
Then
<1161>
fled
<5343> (5627)
Moses
<3475>
at
<1722>
this
<5129>
saying
<3056>_,
and
<2532>
was
<1096> (5633)
a stranger
<3941>
in
<1722>
the land
<1093>
of Madian
<3099>_,
where
<3757>
he begat
<1080> (5656)
two
<1417>
sons
<5207>_.
And
<2532>
when forty
<5062>
years
<2094>
were expired
<4137> (5685)_,
there appeared
<3700> (5681)
to him
<846>
in
<1722>
the wilderness
<2048>
of mount
<3735>
Sina
<4614>
an angel
<32>
of the Lord
<2962>
in
<1722>
a flame
<5395>
of fire
<4442>
in a bush
<942>_.
When
<1161>
Moses
<3475>
saw
<1492> (5631)
[it], he wondered
<2296> (5656)
at the sight
<3705>_:
and
<1161>
as he
<846>
drew near
<4334> (5740)
to behold
<2657> (5658)
[it], the voice
<5456>
of the Lord
<2962>
came
<1096> (5633)
unto
<4314>
him
<846>_,
[Saying], I
<1473>
[am] the God
<2316>
of thy
<4675>
fathers
<3962>_,
the God
<2316>
of Abraham
<11>_,
and
<2532>
the God
<2316>
of Isaac
<2464>_,
and
<2532>
the God
<2316>
of Jacob
<2384>_.
Then
<1161>
Moses
<3475>
trembled
<1096> (5637) <1790>_,
and durst
<5111> (5707)
not
<3756>
behold
<2657> (5658)_.
Then
<1161>
said
<2036> (5627)
the Lord
<2962>
to him
<846>_,
Put off
<3089> (5657)
thy shoes
<5266>
from thy
<4675>
feet
<4228>_:
for
<1063>
the place
<5117>
where
<1722> <3739>
thou standest
<2476> (5758)
is
<2076> (5748)
holy
<40>
ground
<1093>_.
I have seen
<1492> (5631)_,
I have seen
<1492> (5627)
the affliction
<2561>
of my
<3450>
people
<2992>
which
<3588>
is in
<1722>
Egypt
<125>_,
and
<2532>
I have heard
<191> (5656)
their
<846>
groaning
<4726>_,
and
<2532>
am come down
<2597> (5627)
to deliver
<1807> (5641)
them
<846>_.
And
<2532>
now
<3568>
come
<1204> (5773)_,
I will send
<649> (5692)
thee
<4571>
into
<1519>
Egypt
<125>_.
This
<5126>
Moses
<3475>
whom
<3739>
they refused
<720> (5662)_,
saying
<2036> (5631)_,
Who
<5101>
made
<2525> (5656)
thee
<4571>
a ruler
<758>
and
<2532>
a judge
<1348>_?
the same
<5126>
did God
<2316>
send
<649> (5656)
[to be] a ruler
<758>
and
<2532>
a deliverer
<3086>
by
<1722>
the hand
<5495>
of the angel
<32>
which
<3588>
appeared
<3700> (5685)
to him
<846>
in
<1722>
the bush
<942>_.
He
<3778>
brought
<1806> (0)
them
<846>
out
<1806> (5627)_,
after that he had shewed
<4160> (5660)
wonders
<5059>
and
<2532>
signs
<4592>
in
<1722>
the land
<1093>
of Egypt
<125>_,
and
<2532>
in
<1722>
the Red
<2063>
sea
<2281>_,
and
<2532>
in
<1722>
the wilderness
<2048>
forty
<5062>
years
<2094>_.
This
<3778>
is
<2076> (5748)
that Moses
<3475>_,
which
<3588>
said
<2036> (5631)
unto the children
<5207>
of Israel
<2474>_,
A prophet
<4396>
shall
<450> (0)
the Lord
<2962>
your
<5216>
God
<2316>
raise up
<450> (5692)
unto you
<5213>
of
<1537>
your
<5216>
brethren
<80>_,
like
<5613>
unto me
<1691>_;
him
<846>
shall ye hear
<191> (5695)_.
{like...: or, as myself}
This
<3778>
is he
<2076> (5748)_,
that was
<1096> (5637)
in
<1722>
the church
<1577>
in
<1722>
the wilderness
<2048>
with
<3326>
the angel
<32>
which
<3588>
spake
<2980> (5723)
to him
<846>
in
<1722>
the mount
<3735>
Sina
<4614>_,
and
<2532>
[with] our
<2257>
fathers
<3962>_:
who
<3739>
received
<1209> (5662)
the lively
<2198> (5723)
oracles
<3051>
to give
<1325> (5629)
unto us
<2254>_:
To whom
<3739>
our
<2257>
fathers
<3962>
would
<2309> (5656)
not
<3756>
obey
<1096> (5635) <5255>_,
but
<235>
thrust [him] from them
<683> (5662)_,
and
<2532>
in their
<846>
hearts
<2588>
turned back again
<4762> (5648)
into
<1519>
Egypt
<125>_,
Saying
<2036> (5631)
unto Aaron
<2>_,
Make
<4160> (5657)
us
<2254>
gods
<2316>
to
<3739>
go before
<4313> (5695)
us
<2257>_:
for
<1063>
[as for] this
<3778>
Moses
<3475>_,
which
<3739>
brought
<1806> (5627)
us
<2248>
out of
<1537>
the land
<1093>
of Egypt
<125>_,
we wot
<1492> (5758)
not
<3756>
what
<5101>
is become
<1096> (5754)
of him
<846>_.
And
<2532>
they made a calf
<3447> (5656)
in
<1722>
those
<1565>
days
<2250>_,
and
<2532>
offered
<321> (5627)
sacrifice
<2378>
unto the idol
<1497>_,
and
<2532>
rejoiced
<2165> (5712)
in
<1722>
the works
<2041>
of their own
<846>
hands
<5495>_.
Then
<1161>
God
<2316>
turned
<4762> (5656)_,
and
<2532>
gave
<3860> (0)
them
<846>
up
<3860> (5656)
to worship
<3000> (5721)
the host
<4756>
of heaven
<3772>_;
as it
<2531>
is written
<1125> (5769)
in
<1722>
the book
<976>
of the prophets
<4396>_,
O ye house
<3624>
of Israel
<2474>_,
have ye offered
<3361> <4374> (5656)
to me
<3427>
slain beasts
<4968>
and
<2532>
sacrifices
<2378>
[by the space of] forty
<5062>
years
<2094>
in
<1722>
the wilderness
<2048>_?
Yea
<2532>_,
ye took up
<353> (5627)
the tabernacle
<4633>
of Moloch
<3434>_,
and
<2532>
the star
<798>
of your
<5216>
god
<2316>
Remphan
<4481>_,
figures
<5179>
which
<3739>
ye made
<4160> (5656)
to worship
<4352> (5721)
them
<846>_:
and
<2532>
I will carry
<3351> (0)
you
<5209>
away
<3351> (5692)
beyond
<1900>
Babylon
<897>_.
Our
<2257>
fathers
<3962>
had
<2258> (5713)
the tabernacle
<4633>
of witness
<3142> <1722>
in
<1722>
the wilderness
<2048>_,
as
<2531>
he had appointed
<1299> (5668)_,
speaking
<2980> (5723)
unto Moses
<3475>_,
that he should make
<4160> (5658)
it
<846>
according
<2596>
to the fashion
<5179>
that
<3739>
he had seen
<3708> (5715)_.
{speaking: or, who spake}
Which
<3739>
also
<2532>
our
<2257>
fathers
<3962>
that came
<1237> (5666)
after brought in
<1521> (5627)
with
<3326>
Jesus
<2424>
into
<1722>
the possession
<2697>
of the Gentiles
<1484>_,
whom
<3739>
God
<2316>
drave out
<1856> (5656)
before
<575>
the face
<4383>
of our
<2257>
fathers
<3962>_,
unto
<2193>
the days
<2250>
of David
<1138>_;
{that...: or, having received}
Who
<3739>
found
<2147> (5627)
favour
<5485>
before
<1799>
God
<2316>_,
and
<2532>
desired
<154> (5668)
to find
<2147> (5629)
a tabernacle
<4638>
for the God
<2316>
of Jacob
<2384>_.
But
<1161>
Solomon
<4672>
built
<3618> (5656)
him
<846>
an house
<3624>_.
Howbeit
<235>
the most High
<5310>
dwelleth
<2730> (5719)
not
<3756>
in
<1722>
temples
<3485>
made with hands
<5499>_;
as
<2531>
saith
<3004> (5719)
the prophet
<4396>_,
Heaven
<3772>
[is] my
<3427>
throne
<2362>_,
and
<1161>
earth
<1093>
[is] my
<3450>
footstool
<4228> <5286>_:
what
<4169>
house
<3624>
will ye build
<3618> (5692)
me
<3427>_?
saith
<3004> (5719)
the Lord
<2962>_:
or
<2228>
what
<5101>
[is] the place
<5117>
of my
<3450>
rest
<2663>_?
Hath
<4160> (0)
not
<3780>
my
<3450>
hand
<5495>
made
<4160> (5656)
all
<3956>
these things
<5023>_?
Ye stiffnecked
<4644>
and
<2532>
uncircumcised
<564>
in heart
<2588>
and
<2532>
ears
<3775>_,
ye
<5210>
do
<496> (0)
always
<104>
resist
<496> (5719)
the Holy
<40>
Ghost
<4151>_:
as
<5613>
your
<5216>
fathers
<3962>
[did], so
<2532>
[do] ye
<5210>_.
Which
<5101>
of the prophets
<4396>
have
<1377> (0)
not
<3756>
your
<5216>
fathers
<3962>
persecuted
<1377> (5656)_?
and
<2532>
they have slain
<615> (5656)
them which
<3588>
shewed before
<4293> (5660)
of
<4012>
the coming
<1660>
of the Just One
<1342>_;
of whom
<3739>
ye
<5210>
have been
<1096> (5769)
now
<3568>
the betrayers
<4273>
and
<2532>
murderers
<5406>_:
Who
<3748>
have received
<2983> (5627)
the law
<3551>
by
<1519>
the disposition
<1296>
of angels
<32>_,
and
<2532>
have
<5442> (0)
not
<3756>
kept
<5442> (5656)
[it].
When
<1161>
they heard
<191> (5723)
these things
<5023>_,
they were cut
<1282> (5712)
to the heart
<2588> <846>_,
and
<2532>
they gnashed
<1031> (5707)
on
<1909>
him
<846>
with [their] teeth
<3599>_.
But
<1161>
he, being
<5225> (5723)
full
<4134>
of the Holy
<40>
Ghost
<4151>_,
looked up stedfastly
<816> (5660)
into
<1519>
heaven
<3772>_,
and saw
<1492> (5627)
the glory
<1391>
of God
<2316>_,
and
<2532>
Jesus
<2424>
standing
<2476> (5761)
on
<1537>
the right hand
<1188>
of God
<2316>_,
And
<2532>
said
<2036> (5627)_,
Behold
<2400> (5628)_,
I see
<2334> (5719)
the heavens
<3772>
opened
<455> (5772)_,
and
<2532>
the Son
<5207>
of man
<444>
standing
<2476> (5761)
on
<1537>
the right hand
<1188>
of God
<2316>_.
Then
<1161>
they cried out
<2896> (5660)
with a loud
<3173>
voice
<5456>_,
and stopped
<4912> (5627)
their
<846>
ears
<3775>_,
and
<2532>
ran
<3729> (5656)
upon
<1909>
him
<846>
with one accord
<3661>_,
And
<2532>
cast
<1544> (5631)
[him] out of
<1854>
the city
<4172>_,
and stoned
<3036> (5707)
[him]: and
<2532>
the witnesses
<3144>
laid down
<659> (5639)
their
<846>
clothes
<2440>
at
<3844>
a young man's
<3494>
feet
<4228>_,
whose name was
<2564> (5746)
Saul
<4569>_.
And
<2532>
they stoned
<3036> (5707)
Stephen
<4736>_,
calling upon
<1941> (5734)
[God], and
<2532>
saying
<3004> (5723)_,
Lord
<2962>
Jesus
<2424>_,
receive
<1209> (5663)
my
<3450>
spirit
<4151>_.
And
<1161>
he kneeled down
<5087> (5631) <1119>_,
and cried
<2896> (5656)
with a loud
<3173>
voice
<5456>_,
Lord
<2962>_,
lay
<2476> (5661)
not
<3361>
this
<5026>
sin
<266>
to their
<846>
charge. And
<2532>
when he had said
<2036> (5631)
this
<5124>_,
he fell asleep
<2837> (5681)_.
And
<1161>
Saul
<4569>
was
<2258> (5713)
consenting
<4909> (5723)
unto his
<846>
death
<336>_.
And
<1161>
at
<1722>
that
<1565>
time
<2250>
there was
<1096> (5633)
a great
<3173>
persecution
<1375>
against
<1909>
the church
<1577>
which
<3588>
was at
<1722>
Jerusalem
<2414>_;
and
<5037>
they were
<1289> (0)
all
<3956>
scattered abroad
<1289> (5681)
throughout
<2596>
the regions
<5561>
of Judaea
<2449>
and
<2532>
Samaria
<4540>_,
except
<4133>
the apostles
<652>_.
And
<1161>
devout
<2126>
men
<435>
carried
<4792> (5656)
Stephen
<4736>
[to his burial], and
<2532>
made
<4160> (5668)
great
<3173>
lamentation
<2870>
over
<1909>
him
<846>_.
As
<1161>
for Saul
<4569>_,
he made havock
<3075> (5711)
of the church
<1577>_,
entering into
<1531> (5740) (5734)
every
<2596>
house
<3624>_,
and haling
<4951> (5723) <5037>
men
<435>
and
<2532>
women
<1135>
committed
<3860> (5707)
[them] to
<1519>
prison
<5438>_.
Therefore
<3767> <3303>
they that were scattered abroad
<1289> (5651)
went every where
<1330> (5627)
preaching
<2097> (5734)
the word
<3056>_.
Then
<1161>
Philip
<5376>
went down
<2718> (5631)
to
<1519>
the city
<4172>
of Samaria
<4540>_,
and preached
<2784> (5707)
Christ
<5547>
unto them
<846>_.
And
<5037>
the people
<3793>
with one accord
<3661>
gave heed
<4337> (5707)
unto those things which Philip
<5376>
spake
<3004> (5746) <5259>_,
hearing
<1722> <191> (5721) <846>
and
<2532>
seeing
<991> (5721)
the miracles
<4592>
which
<3739>
he did
<4160> (5707)_.
For
<1063>
unclean
<169>
spirits
<4151>_,
crying
<994> (5723)
with loud
<3173>
voice
<5456>_,
came out
<1831> (5711)
of many
<4183>
that were possessed
<2192> (5723)
[with them]: and
<1161>
many
<4183>
taken with palsies
<3886> (5772)_,
and
<2532>
that were lame
<5560>_,
were healed
<2323> (5681)_.
And
<2532>
there was
<1096> (5633)
great
<3173>
joy
<5479>
in
<1722>
that
<1565>
city
<4172>_.
But
<1161>
there was a certain
<5100>
man
<435>_,
called
<3686>
Simon
<4613>_,
which beforetime
<4391> (5707)
in
<1722>
the same city
<4172>
used sorcery
<3096> (5723)_,
and
<2532>
bewitched
<1839> (5723)
the people
<1484>
of Samaria
<4540>_,
giving out
<3004> (5723)
that himself
<1438>
was
<1511> (5750)
some
<5100>
great one
<3173>_:
To whom
<3739>
they all
<3956>
gave heed
<4337> (5707)_,
from
<575>
the least
<3398>
to
<2193>
the greatest
<3173>_,
saying
<3004> (5723)_,
This man
<3778>
is
<2076> (5748)
the great
<3173>
power
<1411>
of God
<2316>_.
And
<1161>
to him
<846>
they had regard
<4337> (5707)_,
because
<1223>
that of long
<2425>
time
<5550>
he had bewitched
<1839> (5760)
them
<846>
with sorceries
<3095>_.
But
<1161>
when
<3753>
they believed
<4100> (5656)
Philip
<5376>
preaching
<2097> (5734)
the things concerning
<4012>
the kingdom
<932>
of God
<2316>_,
and
<2532>
the name
<3686>
of Jesus
<2424>
Christ
<5547>_,
they were baptized
<907> (5712)_,
both
<5037>
men
<435>
and
<2532>
women
<1135>_.
Then
<1161>
Simon
<4613>
himself
<846>
believed
<4100> (5656)
also
<2532>_:
and
<2532>
when he was baptized
<907> (5685)_,
he continued
<2258> (5713) <4342> (5723)
with Philip
<5376>_,
and
<5037>
wondered
<1839> (5710)_,
beholding
<2334> (5723)
the miracles
<1411>
and
<2532>
signs
<4592> <3173>
which were done
<1096> (5740) (5625) <1096> (5740)_.

Now
<1161>
when the apostles
<652>
which
<3588>
were at
<1722>
Jerusalem
<2414>
heard
<191> (5660)
that
<3754>
Samaria
<4540>
had received
<1209> (5766)
the word
<3056>
of God
<2316>_,
they sent
<649> (5656)
unto
<4314>
them
<846>
Peter
<4074>
and
<2532>
John
<2491>_:
Who
<3748>_,
when they were come down
<2597> (5631)_,
prayed
<4336> (5662)
for
<4012>
them
<846>_,
that
<3704>
they might receive
<2983> (5632)
the Holy
<40>
Ghost
<4151>_:
(For
<1063>
as yet
<3768>
he was
<2258> (5713)
fallen
<1968> (5761)
upon
<1909>
none
<3762>
of them
<846>_:
only
<3440> <1161>
they were
<5225> (5707)
baptized
<907> (5772)
in
<1519>
the name
<3686>
of the Lord
<2962>
Jesus
<2424>.)
Then
<5119>
laid they
<2007> (5707)
[their] hands
<5495>
on
<1909>
them
<846>_,
and
<2532>
they received
<2983> (5707)
the Holy
<40>
Ghost
<4151>_.
And
<1161>
when Simon
<4613>
saw
<2300> (5666)
that
<3754>
through
<1223>
laying on
<1936>
of the apostles
<652>_'
hands
<5495>
the Holy
<40>
Ghost
<4151>
was given
<1325> (5743)_,
he offered
<4374> (5656)
them
<846>
money
<5536>_,
Saying
<3004> (5723)_,
Give
<1325> (5628)
me also
<2504>
this
<5026>
power
<1849>_,
that
<2443>
on
<2007> (0)
whomsoever
<3739> <1437>
I lay
<2007> (5632)
hands
<5495>_,
he may receive
<2983> (5725)
the Holy
<40>
Ghost
<4151>_.
But
<1161>
Peter
<4074>
said
<2036> (5627)
unto
<4314>
him
<846>_,
Thy
<4675>
money
<694>
perish
<1498> (5751) <1519> <684>
with
<4862>
thee
<4671>_,
because
<3754>
thou hast thought
<3543> (5656)
that the gift
<1431>
of God
<2316>
may be purchased
<2932> (5738)
with
<1223>
money
<5536>_.
Thou
<4671>
hast
<2076> (5748)
neither
<3756>
part
<3310>
nor
<3761>
lot
<2819>
in
<1722>
this
<5129>
matter
<3056>_:
for
<1063>
thy
<4675>
heart
<2588>
is
<2076> (5748)
not
<3756>
right
<2117>
in the sight
<1799>
of God
<2316>_.
Repent
<3340> (5657)
therefore
<3767>
of
<575>
this
<5026>
thy
<4675>
wickedness
<2549>_,
and
<2532>
pray
<1189> (5676)
God
<2316>_,
if
<1487>
perhaps
<686>
the thought
<1963>
of thine
<4675>
heart
<2588>
may be forgiven
<863> (5701)
thee
<4671>_.
For
<1063>
I perceive
<3708> (5719)
that thou
<4571>
art
<5607> (5752)
in
<1519>
the gall
<5521>
of bitterness
<4088>_,
and
<2532>
[in] the bond
<4886>
of iniquity
<93>_.
Then
<1161>
answered
<611> (5679)
Simon
<4613>_,
and said
<2036> (5627)_,
Pray
<1189> (5676)
ye
<5210>
to
<4314>
the Lord
<2962>
for
<5228>
me
<1700>_,
that
<3704>
none of these things
<3367>
which
<3739>
ye have spoken
<2046> (5758)
come
<1904> (5632)
upon
<1909>
me
<1691>_.
And they, when
<3303> <3767>
they had testified
<1263> (5666)
and
<2532>
preached
<2980> (5660)
the word
<3056>
of the Lord
<2962>_,
returned
<5290> (5656)
to
<1519>
Jerusalem
<2419>_,
and
<5037>
preached the gospel
<2097> (5668)
in many
<4183>
villages
<2968>
of the Samaritans
<4541>_.
And
<1161>
the angel
<32>
of the Lord
<2962>
spake
<2980> (5656)
unto
<4314>
Philip
<5376>_,
saying
<3004> (5723)_,
Arise
<450> (5628)_,
and
<2532>
go
<4198> (5737)
toward
<2596>
the south
<3314>
unto
<1909>
the way
<3598>
that goeth down
<2597> (5723)
from
<575>
Jerusalem
<2419>
unto
<1519>
Gaza
<1048>_,
which
<3778>
is
<2076> (5748)
desert
<2048>_.
And
<2532>
he arose
<450> (5631)
and went
<4198> (5675)_:
and
<2532>_,
behold
<2400> (5628)_,
a man
<435>
of Ethiopia
<128>_,
an eunuch
<2135>
of great authority
<1413>
under Candace
<2582>
queen
<938>
of the Ethiopians
<128>_,
who
<3739>
had
<2258> (5713)
the charge of
<1909>
all
<3956>
her
<846>
treasure
<1047>_,
and
<3739>
had come
<2064> (5715)
to
<1519>
Jerusalem
<2419>
for to worship
<4352> (5694)_,
<5037>@ Was
<2258> (5713)
returning
<5290> (5723)_,
and
<2532>
sitting
<2521> (5740)
in
<1909>
his
<846>
chariot
<716> <2532>
read
<314> (5707)
Esaias
<2268>
the prophet
<4396>_.
Then
<1161>
the Spirit
<4151>
said
<2036> (5627)
unto Philip
<5376>_,
Go near
<4334> (5628)_,
and
<2532>
join thyself to
<2853> (5682)
this
<5129>
chariot
<716>_.
And
<1161>
Philip
<5376>
ran
<4370> (5631)
thither to [him], and heard
<191> (5656)
him
<846>
read
<314> (5723)
the prophet
<4396>
Esaias
<2268>_,
and
<2532>
said
<2036> (5627)_,
Understandest thou
<687> <1065> <1097> (5719)
what
<3739>
thou readest
<314> (5719)_?
And
<1161>
he said
<2036> (5627)_,
How
<1063> <4459>
can I
<302> <1410> (5739)_,
except
<3362>
some man
<5100>
should guide
<3594> (5661)
me
<3165>_?
And
<5037>
he desired
<3870> (5656)
Philip
<5376>
that he would come up
<305> (5631)
and sit
<2523> (5658)
with
<4862>
him
<846>_.
<1161>@ The place
<4042>
of the scripture
<1124>
which
<3739>
he read
<314> (5707)
was
<2258> (5713)
this
<3778>_,
He was led
<71> (5681)
as
<5613>
a sheep
<4263>
to
<1909>
the slaughter
<4967>_;
and
<2532>
like
<5613>
a lamb
<286>
dumb
<880>
before
<1726>
his
<846>
shearer
<2751> (5723)_,
so
<3779>
opened he
<455> (5719)
not
<3756>
his
<846>
mouth
<4750>_:
In
<1722>
his
<846>
humiliation
<5014>
his
<846>
judgment
<2920>
was taken away
<142> (5681)_:
and
<1161>
who
<5101>
shall declare
<1334> (5695)
his
<846>
generation
<1074>_?
for
<3754>
his
<846>
life
<2222>
is taken
<142> (5743)
from
<575>
the earth
<1093>_.
And
<1161>
the eunuch
<2135>
answered
<611> (5679)
Philip
<5376>_,
and said
<2036> (5627)_,
I pray
<1189> (5736)
thee
<4675>_,
of
<4012>
whom
<5101>
speaketh
<3004> (5719)
the prophet
<4396>
this
<5124>_?
of
<4012>
himself
<1438>_,
or
<2228>
of
<4012>
some
<5100>
other man
<2087>_?
Then
<1161>
Philip
<5376>
opened
<455> (5660)
his
<846>
mouth
<4750>_,
and
<2532>
began
<756> (5671)
at
<575>
the same
<5026>
scripture
<1124>_,
and preached
<2097> (5668)
unto him
<846>
Jesus
<2424>_.
And
<1161>
as
<5613>
they went
<4198> (5711)
on
<2596>
[their] way
<3598>_,
they came
<2064> (5627)
unto
<1909>
a certain
<5100>
water
<5204>_:
and
<2532>
the eunuch
<2135>
said
<5346> (5748)_,
See
<2400> (5628)_,
[here is] water
<5204>_;
what
<5101>
doth hinder
<2967> (5719)
me
<3165>
to be baptized
<907> (5683)_?
And
<1161>
Philip
<5376>
said
<2036> (5627)_,
If
<1487>
thou believest
<4100> (5719)
with
<1537>
all thine
<3650>
heart
<2588>_,
thou mayest
<1832> (5748)_.
And
<1161>
he answered
<611> (5679)
and said
<2036> (5627)_,
I believe
<4100> (5719)
that Jesus
<2424>
Christ
<5547>
is
<1511> (5750)
the Son
<5207>
of God
<2316>_.
And
<2532>
he commanded
<2753> (5656)
the chariot
<716>
to stand still
<2476> (5629)_:
and
<2532>
they went down
<2597> (5627)
both
<297>
into
<1519>
the water
<5204>_,
both
<5037>
Philip
<5376>
and
<2532>
the eunuch
<2135>_;
and
<2532>
he baptized
<907> (5656)
him
<846>_.
And
<1161>
when
<3753>
they were come up
<305> (5627)
out of
<1537>
the water
<5204>_,
the Spirit
<4151>
of the Lord
<2962>
caught away
<726> (5656)
Philip
<5376>_,

<2532>
that the eunuch
<2135>
saw
<1492> (5627) <3756>
him
<846>
no more
<3765>_:
and
<1063>
he went
<4198> (5711)
on his
<846>
way
<3598>
rejoicing
<5463> (5723)_.
But
<1161>
Philip
<5376>
was found
<2147> (5681)
at
<1519>
Azotus
<108>_:
and
<2532>
passing
<1330> (5740)
through he preached
<2097> (5710)
in all
<3956>
the cities
<4172>_,
till
<2193>
he
<846>
came
<2064> (5629)
to
<1519>
Caesarea
<2542>_.
