Acts 7:51-60

Lamsa(i) 51 O you stubborn and insincere in heart and hearing, you always resist the Holy Spirit: as your fathers did, so do you. 52 Which of the prophets have not your fathers persecuted and murdered? Especially have they slain those who foretold the coming of the Righteous One whom you betrayed and murdered. 53 You received the law by the disposition of angels, and have not kept it. 54 When they heard these things, they were enraged, and gnashed their teeth at him. 55 But he, full of faith and Holy Spirit, looked up to heaven and saw the glory of God and Jesus standing at the right hand of God. 56 And he said, Behold I see the heavens opened and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God. 57 Then they cried out with a loud voice, and stopped their ears and with one accord, shouted threats against Stephen. 58 And they seized him and took him outside the city and began to stone him. Those who testified against him placed their clothes under the care of a young man called Saul. 59 And they stoned Stephen as he prayed, saying, Our LORD Jesus, accept my spirit. 60 And as he knelt down, he cried with a loud voice and said, Our LORD, do not hold this sin against them. When he had said this, he passed away.
