Acts 6
1 In now days these when are multiplying the disciples there arose a grumbling of the Hellenists against the Hebrews, because were being overlooked in the distribution daily the widows of them.

2 Having called near then the Twelve the multitude of the disciples they said; Not desirable it is [for] us having neglected the word of God to attend at tables.

4 We ourselves now in the prayer and in the ministry of the word will steadfastly continue.

5 And pleased the statement before all the multitude, and they chose Stephen, a man (full *N(k)O*) of faith and [of the] Spirit holy, and Philip and Prochorus and Nicanor and Timon and Parmenas and Nicolas a convert of Antioch,

7 And the word of God was increasing, and was multiplied the number of the disciples in Jerusalem exceedingly, a great then multitude of the priests were becoming obedient to the faith.

8 Stephen now full (of grace *N(K)O*) and power was performing wonders and signs great among the people.

9 Arose however certain of those from the synagogue which is being named Freedmen including Cyrenians and Alexandrians and of those from Cilicia and Asia, disputing with Stephen;
ⲑ̅ⲁⲩⲧⲱⲟⲩⲛⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ϩⲁⲛⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗϧⲉⲛ ϯⲥⲩⲛⲁⲅⲱⲅⲏ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉϣⲁⲩⲙⲟⲩϯ ⳿ⲉⲣⲱⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲛⲓⲗⲓⲃⲉⲣⲧⲓⲛⲟⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲓⲔⲩⲣⲓⲛⲛⲉⲟⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲓⲣⲉⲙⲣⲁⲕⲟϯ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲓⲣⲉⲙ⳿ⲧⲕⲩⲗⲓⲕⲓⲁ ⲛⲉⲙ ϯ⳿ⲁⲥⲓ⳿ⲁ ⲉⲩⲕⲱϯ ⲛⲉⲙ ⳿ⲥⲧⲉⲫⲁⲛⲟⲥ.
10 And not they were able to withstand against the wisdom and against the Spirit by whom he was speaking.

11 Then they suborned men saying that We have heard when he is speaking declarations blasphemous against Moses and God;

12 They stirred up then the people and the elders and the scribes, and having come upon [him] they seized him and they brought [him] to the Council,

13 They set also witnesses false saying; man This not does stop speaking declarations (blasphemous *K*) against the place holy this and the law;

14 we have heard for him saying that Jesus of Nazareth this will destroy place this and will change the customs that delivered to us Moses.

15 And having looked intently on him (all *N(k)O*) those sitting in the Council saw the face of him as [the] face of an angel.
