Darby's Synopsis
   1: But in those days, the disciples multiplying in number, there arose a murmuring of the Hellenists against the Hebrews because their widows were overlooked in the daily ministration.
   2: And the twelve, having called the multitude of the disciples to [them], said, It is not right that we, leaving the word of God, should serve tables.
   3: Look out therefore, brethren, from among yourselves seven men, well reported of, full of [the] [Holy] Spirit and wisdom, whom we will establish over this business:
   4: but we will give ourselves up to prayer and the ministry of the word.
   5: And the saying pleased the whole multitude: and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and [the] Holy Spirit, and Philip, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicolas, a proselyte of Antioch,
   6: whom they set before the apostles; and, having prayed, they laid their hands on them.
   7: And the word of God increased; and the number of the disciples in Jerusalem was very greatly multiplied, and a great crowd of the priests obeyed the faith.
   8: And Stephen, full of grace and power, wrought wonders and great signs among the people.
   9: And there arose up certain of those of the synagogue called of freedmen, and of Cyrenians, and of Alexandrians, and of those of Cilicia and Asia, disputing with Stephen.
   10: And they were not able to resist the wisdom and the Spirit with which he spoke.
   11: Then they suborned men, saying, We have heard him speaking blasphemous words against Moses and God.
   12: And they roused the people, and the elders, and the scribes. And coming upon [him] they seized him and brought [him] to the council.
   13: And they set false witnesses, saying, This man does not cease speaking words against the holy place and the law;
   14: for we have heard him saying, This Jesus the Nazaraean shall destroy this place, and change the customs which Moses taught us.
   15: And all who sat in the council, looking fixedly on him, saw his face as [the] face of an angel.
