Now in these days, when the number of the disciples was multiplying, there arose a murmuring of the Grecian Jews against the Hebrews, because their widows were neglected in the daily ministration.

And the twelve called the multitude of the disciples unto them, and said, It is not fit that we should forsake the word of God, and serve tables.

Look ye out therefore, brethren, from among you seven men of good report, full of the Spirit and of wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business.

But we will continue stedfastly in prayer, and in the ministry of the word.

And the saying pleased the whole multitude: and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit, and Philip, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicolaüs a proselyte of Antioch;
6 Hauc presenta citzaten Apostoluén aitzinera, eta hec othoitze eguinic escuac gainean paussa cietzén.
whom they set before the apostles: and when they had prayed, they laid their hands upon them.
7 Eta Iaincoaren hitza aitzinaratzen cen, eta haguitz multiplicatzen cen discipuluén contua Ierusalemen: Sacrificadoretaric-ere tropel handiac fedea obeditzen çuen.
And the word of God increased; and the number of the disciples multiplied in Jerusalem exceedingly; and a great company of the priests were obedient to the faith.

And Stephen, full of grace and power, wrought great wonders and signs among the people.

But there arose certain of them that were of the synagogue called [the synagogue] of the Libertines, and of the Cyrenians, and of the Alexandrians, and of them of Cilicia and Asia, disputing with Stephen.
10 Eta ecin resisti ceçaqueoten sapientiari eta hura minça eraciten çuen Spirituari.
And they were not able to withstand the wisdom and the Spirit by which he spake.
11 Orduan suborna citzaten guiçon batzu erraiten çutenic, Ençun dugu hori erraiten hitz blasphemiotacoric Moysesen eta Iaincoaren contra.
Then they suborned men, who said, We have heard him speak blasphemous words against Moses, and [against] God.

And they stirred up the people, and the elders, and the scribes, and came upon him, and seized him, and brought him into the council,
13 Eta presenta citzaten testimonio falsuac erraiten çutenic, Guiçon haur ezta ichiltzen blasphemiotaco hitz erraitetic leku saindu hunen, eta Leguearen contra.
and set up false witnesses, who said, This man ceaseth not to speak words against this holy place, and the law:
14 Ecen ençun vkan dugu haur erraiten, ecen Iesus Nazareno horrec deseguinen duela leku haur, eta muthaturen dituela Moysesec eman drauzquigun ordenançác.
for we have heard him say, that this Jesus of Nazareth shall destroy this place, and shall change the customs which Moses delivered unto us.
15 Eta beguiac harenganat egotziric, conseilluan iarriric ceuden guciéc ikus ceçaten haren beguithartea quasi Aingueru baten beguithartea beçalaco.
And all that sat in the council, fastening their eyes on him, saw his face as it had been the face of an angel.
