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.

εν δε ταις ημεραις ταυταις πληθυνοντων των μαθητων εγενετο γογγυσμος των ελληνιστων προς τους εβραιους οτι παρεθεωρουντο εν τη διακονια τη καθημερινη αι χηραι αυτων

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.

προσκαλεσαμενοι δε οι δωδεκα το πληθος των μαθητων ειπον ουκ αρεστον εστιν ημας καταλειψαντας τον λογον του θεου διακονειν τραπεζαις

3 do select (therefore, *N+kO) brothers, men out from yourselves being well attested seven full of [the] Spirit (Holy *K) and wisdom whom (we will appoint *NK+o) over task this;

επισκεψασθε ουν αδελφοι ανδρας εξ υμων μαρτυρουμενους επτα πληρεις πνευματος αγιου και σοφιας ους καταστησωμεν επι της χρειας ταυτης

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

ημεις δε τη προσευχη και τη διακονια του λογου προσκαρτερησομεν

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

και ηρεσεν ο λογος ενωπιον παντος του πληθους και εξελεξαντο στεφανον ανδρα πληρη πιστεως και πνευματος αγιου και φιλιππον και προχορον και νικανορα και τιμωνα και παρμεναν και νικολαον προσηλυτον αντιοχεα

6 whom they set before the apostles, and having prayed they laid on them the hands.

ους εστησαν ενωπιον των αποστολων και προσευξαμενοι επεθηκαν αυτοις τας χειρας

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.

και ο λογος του θεου ηυξανεν και επληθυνετο ο αριθμος των μαθητων εν ιερουσαλημ σφοδρα πολυς τε οχλος των ιερεων υπηκουον τη πιστει

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

στεφανος δε πληρης πιστεως και δυναμεως εποιει τερατα και σημεια μεγαλα εν τω λαω

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;

ανεστησαν δε τινες των εκ της συναγωγης της λεγομενης λιβερτινων και κυρηναιων και αλεξανδρεων και των απο κιλικιας και ασιας συζητουντες τω στεφανω

10 And not they were able to withstand against the wisdom and against the Spirit by whom he was speaking.

και ουκ ισχυον αντιστηναι τη σοφια και τω πνευματι ω ελαλει

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

τοτε υπεβαλον ανδρας λεγοντας οτι ακηκοαμεν αυτου λαλουντος ρηματα βλασφημα εις μωσην και τον θεον

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,

συνεκινησαν τε τον λαον και τους πρεσβυτερους και τους γραμματεις και επισταντες συνηρπασαν αυτον και ηγαγον εις το συνεδριον

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

εστησαν τε μαρτυρας ψευδεις λεγοντας ο ανθρωπος ουτος ου παυεται ρηματα βλασφημα λαλων κατα του τοπου του αγιου τουτου και του νομου

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.

ακηκοαμεν γαρ αυτου λεγοντος οτι ιησους ο ναζωραιος ουτος καταλυσει τον τοπον τουτον και αλλαξει τα εθη α παρεδωκεν ημιν μωυσης

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

και ατενισαντες εις αυτον απαντες οι καθεζομενοι εν τω συνεδριω ειδον το προσωπον αυτου ωσει προσωπον αγγελου
