1At sinabi ng dakilang saserdote, Tunay baga ang mga bagay na ito? 2At sinabi niya, Mga kapatid na lalake at mga magulang, mangakinig kayo: Ang Dios ng kaluwalhatia'y napakita sa ating amang si Abraham, nang siya'y nasa Mesapotamia, bago siya tumahan sa Haran, 3At sinabi sa kaniya, Umalis ka sa iyong lupain, at sa iyong kamaganakan, at pumaroon ka sa lupaing ituturo ko sa iyo. 4Nang magkagayo'y umalis siya sa lupain ng mga Caldeo, at tumahan sa Haran: at buhat doon, pagkamatay ng kaniyang ama, ay inilipat siya ng Dios sa lupaing ito, na inyong tinatahanan ngayon: 5At hindi siya pinamanahan ng anoman doon, kahit mayapakan ng kaniyang paa: at siya'y nangakong yao'y ibibigay na pinakaari sa kaniya, at sa kaniyang binhi pagkatapos niya, nang wala pa siyang anak. 6At ganito ang sinalita ng Dios, na ang kaniyang binhi ay makikipamayan sa ibang lupain, at kanilang dadalhin sila sa pagkaalipin, at sila'y pahihirapang apat na raang taon. 7At ang bansang sa kanila'y aalipin ay aking hahatulan, sabi ng Dios: at pagkatapos nito'y magsisialis sila, at paglilingkuran nila ako sa dakong ito. 8At ibinigay niya sa kaniya ang tipan ng pagtutuli: at sa ganito'y naging anak ni Abraham si Isaac, at ito'y tinuli nang ikawalong araw; at naging anak ni Isaac si Jacob, at naging mga anak ni Jacob ang labingdalawang patriarka. 9At ang mga patriarka sa udyok ng kainggitan kay Jose, ay ipinagbili siya, upang dalhin sa Egipto; at ang Dios ay sumasa kaniya, 10At siya'y iniligtas sa lahat ng kaniyang kapighatian, at siya'y binigyan ng ikalulugod at karunungan sa harapan ni Faraon na hari sa Egipto; at siya'y ginawang gobernador sa Egipto at sa buong bahay niya. 11Dumating nga ang kagutom sa buong Egipto at sa Canaan, at nagkaroon ng malaking kapighatian: at walang nasumpungang pagkain ang ating mga magulang. 12Datapuwa't nang marinig ni Jacob na may trigo sa Egipto, ay sinugo niyang una ang ating mga magulang. 13At sa ikalawa'y napakilala si Jose sa kaniyang mga kapatid; at nahayag kay Faraon ang lahi ni Jose. 14At nagsugo si Jose, at pinaparoon sa kaniya si Jacob, na kaniyang ama, at ang lahat niyang kamaganakan, na pitongpu't limang tao. 15At lumusong si Jacob sa Egipto; at namatay siya, at ang ating mga magulang. 16At sila'y inilipat sa Siquem, at inilagay sila sa libingang binili ni Abraham sa mga anak ni Hamor sa Siquem, sa halaga ng pilak. 17Datapuwa't nang nalalapit na ang panahon ng pangako, na ginawa ng Dios kay Abraham, ang bayan ay kumapal at dumami sa Egipto, 18Hanggang sa lumitaw ang ibang hari sa Egipto na hindi nakakikilala kay Jose. 19Ito rin ay gumamit ng lalang sa ating lahi, at pinahirapan ang ating mga magulang, na ipinatapon ang kani-kanilang mga sanggol upang huwag mangabuhay. 20Nang panahong yaon, ay ipinanganak si Moises, at siya'y totoong maganda; at siya'y inalagaang tatlong buwan sa bahay ng kaniyang ama: 21At nang siya'y matapon, ay pinulot siya ng anak na babae ni Faraon, at siya'y inalagaang gaya ng sariling anak niya. 22At tinuruan si Moises sa lahat ng karunungan ng mga Egipcio: at siya ay makapangyarihan sa kaniyang mga salita at mga gawa. 23Datapuwa't nang siya'y magaapat na pung taong gulang na, ay tumugtog sa kaniyang puso na dalawin ang kaniyang mga kapatid na mga anak ni Israel. 24At nang makita niya ang isa sa kanila na inaalipusta, ay kaniyang ipinagsanggalang siya, at ipinaghiganti ang pinipighati, at pinatay ang Egipcio: 25At ang isip niya'y napagunawa ng kaniyang mga kapatid na ibinigay ng Dios sa kanila ang kaligtasan sa pamamagitan ng kamay niya: datapuwa't hindi nila napagunawa. 26At nang kinabukasan ay napakita siya sa kanila samantalang sila'y nagaaway, at sila'y ibig sana niyang payapain, na sinasabi, mga Ginoo, kayo'y magkapatid; bakit kayo'y nagaalipustaan? 27Datapuwa't itinulak siya ng umalipusta sa kaniyang kapuwa tao, na sinasabi, Sino ang naglagay sa iyo na puno at hukom sa amin? 28Ibig mo bagang ako'y patayin mo, na gaya ng pagkapatay mo kahapon sa Egipcio? 29At sa salitang ito'y tumakas si Moises, at nakipamayan sa lupain ng Midian, na doo'y nagkaanak siya ng dalawang lalake. 30At nang maganap ang apat na pung taon, ay napakita sa kaniya ang isang anghel sa ilang ng bundok ng Sinai, sa ningas ng apoy sa isang mababang punong kahoy. 31At nang makita ito ni Moises, ay nanggilalas sa tanawin; at nang siya'y lumapit upang pagmasdan, ay dumating ang isang tinig ng Panginoon, 32Ako ang Dios ng iyong mga magulang, ang Dios ni Abraham, at ni Isaac, at ni Jacob. At si Moises ay nanginig at hindi nangahas tumingin. 33At sinabi sa kaniya ng Panginoon, Alisin mo ang mga pangyapak sa iyong mga paa: sapagka't ang dakong kinatatayuan mo ay lupang banal. 34Totoong nakita ko ang kapighatian ng aking bayang nasa Egipto, at narinig ko ang kanilang hibik, at ako'y bumaba upang sila'y iligtas: at ngayo'y halika, susuguin kita sa Egipto. 35Ang Moises na ito na kanilang itinakuwil, na sinasabi, Sino ang sa iyo'y naglagay na puno at hukom? ay siyang sinugo ng Dios na maging puno at tagapagligtas sa pamamagitan ng kamay ng anghel na sa kaniya'y napakita sa mababang punong kahoy. 36Pinatnugutan sila ng taong ito, pagkagawa ng mga kababalaghan at mga tanda sa Egipto, at sa dagat na Pula, at sa ilang sa loob ng apat na pung taon. 37Ito'y yaong Moises, na nagsabi sa mga anak ni Israel, Palilitawin ng Dios sa inyo ang isang propeta na gaya ko, mula sa inyong mga kapatid. 38Ito'y yaong naroon sa iglesia sa ilang na kasama ang anghel na nagsalita sa kaniya sa bundok ng Sinai, at kasama ang ating mga magulang: na siyang nagsitanggap ng mga aral na buhay upang ibigay sa atin: 39Sa kaniya'y ayaw magsitalima ang ating mga magulang, kundi siya'y kanilang itinakuwil, at sa kanilang mga puso'y nangagbalik sa Egipto, 40Na sinasabi kay Aaron, Igawa mo kami ng mga dios na mangunguna sa amin: sapagka't tungkol dito kay Moises, na naglabas sa amin sa lupain ng Egipto, ay hindi namin nalalaman kung ano ang nangyari sa kaniya. 41At nagsigawa sila nang mga araw na yaon ng isang guyang baka, at nagsipaghandog ng hain sa diosdiosang yaon, at nangatuwa sa mga gawa ng kanilang mga kamay. 42Datapuwa't tumalikod ang Dios, at sila'y pinabayaang magsisamba sa hukbo ng langit; gaya ng nasusulat sa aklat ng mga propeta, Hinandugan baga ninyo ako ng mga hayop na pinatay at mga hain Na apat na pung taon sa ilang, Oh angkan ni Israel? 43At dinala ninyo ang tabernakulo ni Moloc, At ang bituin ng dios Refan, Ang mga larawang ginawa ninyo upang inyong sambahin: At dadalhin ko kayo sa dako pa roon ng Babilonia. 44Sumaating mga magulang sa ilang ang tabernakulo ng patotoo, ayon sa itinakda ng nagsalita kay Moises, na kaniyang gawin yaon alinsunod sa anyong kaniyang nakita. 45Na yao'y ipinasok din ng ating mga magulang sa kapanahunang ukol, na kasama ni Josue nang sila'y magsipasok sa inaari ng mga bansa, na pinalayas ng Dios sa harapan ng ating magulang, hanggang sa mga araw ni David; 46Na nakasumpong ng biyaya sa paningin ng Dios, at huminging makasumpong ng isang tahanang ukol sa Dios ni Jacob. 47Datapuwa't iginawa siya ni Salomon ng isang bahay. 48Bagama't ang Kataastaasa'y hindi tumatahan sa mga bahay na gawa ng mga kamay; gaya ng sinasabi ng propeta, 49Ang langit ay ang aking luklukan, At ang lupa ang tungtungan ng aking mga paa: Anong anyo ng bahay ang itatayo ninyo sa akin? sabi ng Panginoon: O anong dako ang aking pahingahan? 50Hindi baga ginawa ng aking kamay ang lahat ng mga bagay na ito? 51Kayong matitigas ang ulo, at di tuli ang puso't mga tainga, kayo'y laging nagsisisalangsang sa Espiritu Santo: kung ano ang ginawa ng inyong mga magulang, ay gayon din naman ang ginagawa ninyo. 52Alin sa mga propeta ang hindi pinagusig ng inyong mga magulang? at kanilang pinatay ang nangagpahayag ng una ng pagdating ng Matuwid na Ito; na sa kaniya'y kayo ngayon ay nangaging mga tagapagkanulo at mamamatay-tao; 53Kayo na nagsitanggap ng kautusan ayon sa pangangasiwa ng mga anghel, at hindi ninyo ginanap. 54Nang marinig nga nila ang mga bagay na ito, ay nangasugatan sila sa puso, at siya'y pinagngalitan nila ng kanilang mga ngipin. 55Datapuwa't siya, palibhasa'y puspos ng Espiritu Santo ay tumitig na maigi sa langit, at nakita niya ang kaluwalhatian ng Dios, at si Jesus na nakatindig sa kanan ng Dios, 56At nagsabi, Narito, nakikita kong bukas ang mga langit, at ang Anak ng tao na nakatindig sa kanan ng Dios. 57Datapuwa't sila'y nagsigawan ng malakas na tinig, at nangagtakip ng kanilang mga tainga, at nangagkaisang siya'y dinaluhong; 58At siya'y kanilang itinapon sa labas ng bayan, at binato: at inilagay ng mga saksi ang kanilang mga damit sa mga paanan ng isang binata na nagngangalang Saulo. 59At kanilang pinagbatuhanan si Esteban, na tumatawag sa Panginoon at nagsasabi, Panginoong Jesus, tanggapin mo ang aking espiritu. 60At siya'y nanikluhod, at sumigaw ng malakas na tinig, Panginoon, huwag mong iparatang sa kanila ang kasalanang ito. At pagkasabi niya nito, ay nakatulog siya.
1The high priest said, “Are these things so?” 2He said, “Brothers and fathers, listen. The God of glory appeared to our father Abraham, when he was in Mesopotamia, before he lived in Haran, 3and said to him, ‘Get out of your land, and from your relatives, and come into a land which I will show you.’ 4Then he came out of the land of the Chaldaeans, and lived in Haran. From there, when his father was dead, God moved him into this land, where you are now living. 5He gave him no inheritance in it, no, not so much as to set his foot on. He promised that he would give it to him for a possession, and to his seed after him, when he still had no child. 6God spoke in this way: that his seed would live as aliens in a strange land, and that they would be enslaved and mistreated for four hundred years. 7‘I will judge the nation to which they will be in bondage,’ said God, ‘and after that will they come out, and serve me in this place.’ 8He gave him the covenant of circumcision. So Abraham became the father of Isaac, and circumcised him the eighth day. Isaac became the father of Jacob, and Jacob became the father of the twelve patriarchs. 9“The patriarchs, moved with jealousy against Joseph, sold him into Egypt. God was with him, 10and delivered him out of all his afflictions, and gave him favor and wisdom before Pharaoh, king of Egypt. He made him governor over Egypt and all his house. 11Now a famine came over all the land of Egypt and Canaan, and great affliction. Our fathers found no food. 12But when Jacob heard that there was grain in Egypt, he sent out our fathers the first time. 13On the second time Joseph was made known to his brothers, and Joseph’s race was revealed to Pharaoh. 14Joseph sent, and summoned Jacob, his father, and all his relatives, seventy-five souls. 15Jacob went down into Egypt, and he died, himself and our fathers, 16and they were brought back to Shechem, and laid in the tomb that Abraham bought for a price in silver from the children of Hamor of Shechem. 17“But as the time of the promise came close which God had sworn to Abraham, the people grew and multiplied in Egypt, 18until there arose a different king, who didn’t know Joseph. 19The same took advantage of our race, and mistreated our fathers, and forced them to throw out their babies, so that they wouldn’t stay alive. 20At that time Moses was born, and was exceedingly handsome. He was nourished three months in his father’s house. 21When he was thrown out, Pharaoh’s daughter took him up, and reared him as her own son. 22Moses was instructed in all the wisdom of the Egyptians. He was mighty in his words and works. 23But when he was forty years old, it came into his heart to visit his brothers, the children of Israel. 24Seeing one of them suffer wrong, he defended him, and avenged him who was oppressed, striking the Egyptian. 25He supposed that his brothers understood that God, by his hand, was giving them deliverance; but they didn’t understand. 26“The day following, he appeared to them as they fought, and urged them to be at peace again, saying, ‘Sirs, you are brothers. Why do you wrong one another?’ 27But he who did his neighbor wrong pushed him away, saying, ‘Who made you a ruler and a judge over us? 28Do you want to kill me, as you killed the Egyptian yesterday?’ 29Moses fled at this saying, and became a stranger in the land of Midian, where he became the father of two sons. 30“When forty years were fulfilled, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in the wilderness of Mount Sinai, in a flame of fire in a bush. 31When Moses saw it, he wondered at the sight. As he came close to see, a voice of the Lord came to him, 32‘I am the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.’ Moses trembled, and dared not look. 33The Lord said to him, ‘Take your sandals off of your feet, for the place where you stand is holy ground. 34I have surely seen the affliction of my people that is in Egypt, and have heard their groaning. I have come down to deliver them. Now come, I will send you into Egypt.’ 35“This Moses, whom they refused, saying, ‘Who made you a ruler and a judge?’—God has sent him as both a ruler and a deliverer by the hand of the angel who appeared to him in the bush. 36This man led them out, having worked wonders and signs in Egypt, in the Red Sea, and in the wilderness for forty years. 37This is that Moses, who said to the children of Israel, ‘The Lord our God will raise up a prophet for you from among your brothers, like me.’ 38This is he who was in the assembly in the wilderness with the angel that spoke to him on Mount Sinai, and with our fathers, who received living oracles to give to us, 39to whom our fathers wouldn’t be obedient, but rejected him, and turned back in their hearts to Egypt, 40saying to Aaron, ‘Make us gods that will go before us, for as for this Moses, who led us out of the land of Egypt, we don’t know what has become of him.’ 41They made a calf in those days, and brought a sacrifice to the idol, and rejoiced in the works of their hands. 42But God turned, and gave them up to serve the army of the sky, as it is written in the book of the prophets, ‘Did you offer to me slain animals and sacrifices forty years in the wilderness, O house of Israel? 43You took up the tabernacle of Moloch, the star of your god Rephan, the figures which you made to worship. I will carry you away beyond Babylon.’ 44“Our fathers had the tabernacle of the testimony in the wilderness, even as he who spoke to Moses commanded him to make it according to the pattern that he had seen; 45which also our fathers, in their turn, brought in with Joshua when they entered into the possession of the nations, whom God drove out before the face of our fathers, to the days of David, 46who found favor in the sight of God, and asked to find a habitation for the God of Jacob. 47But Solomon built him a house. 48However, the Most High doesn’t dwell in temples made with hands, as the prophet says, 49‘heaven is my throne, and the earth a footstool for my feet. What kind of house will you build me?’ says the Lord; ‘or what is the place of my rest? 50Didn’t my hand make all these things?’ 51“You stiff-necked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, you always resist the Holy Spirit! As your fathers did, so you do. 52Which of the prophets didn’t your fathers persecute? They killed those who foretold the coming of the Righteous One, of whom you have now become betrayers and murderers. 53You received the law as it was ordained by angels, and didn’t keep it!” 54Now when they heard these things, they were cut to the heart, and they gnashed at him with their teeth. 55But he, being full of the Holy Spirit, looked up steadfastly into heaven, and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God, 56and said, “Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God!” 57But they cried out with a loud voice, and stopped their ears, and rushed at him with one accord. 58They threw him out of the city, and stoned him. The witnesses placed their garments at the feet of a young man named Saul. 59They stoned Stephen as he called out, saying, “Lord Jesus, receive my spirit!” 60He kneeled down, and cried with a loud voice, “Lord, don’t hold this sin against them!” When he had said this, he fell asleep.
1En de hogepriester zeide: Zijn dan deze dingen alzo? 2En hij zeide: Gij mannen broeders en vaders, hoort toe: de God der heerlijkheid verscheen onzen vader Abraham, nog zijnde in Mesopotamie, eer hij woonde in Charran; 3En zeide tot hem: Ga uit uw land en uit uw maagschap, en kom in een land, dat Ik u wijzen zal. 4Toen ging hij uit het land der Chaldeen, en woonde in Charran. En van daar, nadat zijn vader gestorven was, bracht Hij hem over in dit land, daar gij nu in woont. 5En Hij gaf hem geen erfdeel in hetzelve, ook niet een voetstap; en beloofde, dat Hij hem het zelve tot een bezitting geven zou, en zijn zade na hem, als hij nog geen kind had. 6En God sprak alzo, dat zijn zaad vreemdeling zijn zoude in een vreemd land, en dat zij het zouden dienstbaar maken, en kwalijk handelen, vierhonderd jaren. 7En het volk, dat zij dienen zullen, zal Ik oordelen, sprak God; en daarna zullen zij uitgaan, en zij zullen Mij dienen in deze plaats. 8En Hij gaf hem het verbond der besnijdenis; en alzo gewon hij Izak, en besneed hem op den achtsten dag; en Izak gewon Jakob, en Jakob de twaalf patriarchen. 9En de patriarchen, nijdig zijnde, verkochten Jozef, om naar Egypte gebracht te worden; en God was met hem, 10En verloste hem uit al zijn verdrukkingen, en gaf hem genade en wijsheid voor Farao, den koning van Egypteland; en hij stelde hem tot een overste over Egypte, en zijn gehele huis. 11En er kwam een hongersnood over het gehele land van Egypte en Kanaan, en grote benauwdheid; en onze vaders vonden geen spijs. 12Maar als Jakob hoorde, dat in Egypte koren was, zond hij onze vaders de eerste maal uit. 13En in de tweede reize werd Jozef zijn broederen bekend; en het geslacht van Jozef werd aan Farao openbaar. 14En Jozef zond heen, en ontbood zijn vader Jakob, en al zijn geslacht, bestaande in vijf en zeventig zielen. 15En Jakob kwam af in Egypte, en stierf, hijzelf en onze vaders. 16En zij werden overgebracht naar Sichem, en gelegd in het graf, hetwelk Abraham gekocht had voor een som gelds, van de zonen van Emmor, den vader van Sichem. 17Maar als nu de tijd der belofte, die God aan Abraham gezworen had, genaakte, wies het volk en vermenigvuldigde in Egypte; 18Totdat een ander koning opstond, die Jozef niet gekend had. 19Deze gebruikte listigheid tegen ons geslacht, en handelde kwalijk met onze vaderen, zodat zij hun jonge kinderen moesten wegwerpen, opdat zij niet zouden voorttelen. 20In welken tijd Mozes werd geboren, en was uitnemend schoon; welke drie maanden opgevoed werd in het huis zijns vaders. 21En als hij weggeworpen was, nam hem de dochter van Farao op, en voedde hem voor zichzelve op tot een zoon. 22En Mozes werd onderwezen in alle wijsheid der Egyptenaren; en was machtig in woorden en in werken. 23Als hem nu de tijd van veertig jaren vervuld was, kwam hem in zijn hart, zijn broeders, de kinderen Israels, te bezoeken. 24En ziende een, die onrecht leed, beschermde hij hem, en wreekte dengene, dien overlast geschiedde, en versloeg den Egyptenaar. 25En hij meende, dat zijn broeders zouden verstaan, dat God door zijn hand hun verlossing geven zou; maar zij hebben het niet verstaan. 26En den volgenden dag werd hij van hen gezien, daar zij vochten; en hij drong ze tot vrede, zeggende: Mannen, gij zijt broeders; waarom doet gij elkander ongelijk? 27En die zijn naaste ongelijk deed, verstiet hem, zeggende: Wie heeft u tot een overste en rechter over ons gesteld? 28Wilt gij mij ook ombrengen, gelijkerwijs gij gisteren den Egyptenaar omgebracht hebt? 29En Mozes vluchtte op dat woord en werd een vreemdeling in het land Madiam, waar hij twee zonen gewon. 30En als veertig jaren vervuld waren, verscheen hem de Engel des Heeren, in de woestijn van den berg Sinai, in een vlammig vuur van het doornenbos. 31Mozes nu, dat ziende, verwonderde zich over het gezicht; en als hij derwaarts ging, om dat te bezien, zo geschiedde een stem des Heeren tot hem, 32Zeggende: Ik ben de God uwer vaderen, de God Abrahams, en de God Izaks, en de God Jakobs. En Mozes werd zeer bevende, en durfde het niet bezien. 33En de Heere zeide tot hem: Ontbind de schoenen van uw voeten; want de plaats in welke gij staat, is heilig land. 34Ik heb merkelijk gezien de mishandeling Mijns volks, dat in Egypte is, en Ik heb hun zuchten gehoord en ben nedergekomen, om hen daaruit te verlossen; en nu, kom herwaarts, Ik zal u naar Egypte zenden. 35Dezen Mozes, welken zij verloochend hadden, zeggende: Wie heeft u tot een overste en rechter gesteld? dezen, zeg ik, heeft God tot een overste en verlosser gezonden, door de hand des Engels, Die hem verschenen was in het doornenbos. 36Deze heeft hen uitgeleid, doende wonderen en tekenen in het land van Egypte, en in de Rode zee, en in de woestijn, veertig jaren. 37Deze is de Mozes, die tot de kinderen Israels gezegd heeft: De Heere, uw God, zal u een Profeet verwekken uit uw broederen, gelijk mij; Dien zult gij horen. 38Deze is het, die in de vergadering des volks in de woestijn was met den Engel, Die tot hem sprak op den berg Sinai, en met onze vaderen; welke de levende woorden ontving, om ons die te geven. 39Denwelken onze vaders niet wilden gehoorzaam zijn, maar verwierpen hem, en keerden met hun harten weder naar Egypte; 40Zeggende tot Aaron: Maak ons goden, die voor ons heengaan; want wat dezen Mozes aangaat, die ons uit het land van Egypte geleid heeft, wij weten niet, wat hem geschied is. 41En zij maakten een kalf in die dagen, en brachten offerande tot den afgod, en verheugden zich in de werken hunner handen. 42En God keerde Zich, en gaf hen over, dat zij het heir des hemels dienden, gelijk geschreven is in het boek der profeten: Hebt gij ook slachtofferen en offeranden Mij opgeofferd, veertig jaren in de woestijn, gij huis Israels? 43Ja, gij hebt opgenomen den tabernakel van Moloch, en het gesternte van uw god Remfan, de afbeeldingen, die gij gemaakt hebt, om die te aanbidden; en Ik zal u overvoeren op gene zijde van Babylon. 44De tabernakel der getuigenis was onder onze vaderen in de woestijn, gelijk geordineerd had Hij, Die tot Mozes zeide, dat hij denzelven maken zou naar de afbeelding, die hij gezien had; 45Welken ook onze vaders ontvangen hebbende, met Jozua gebracht hebben in het land, dat de heidenen bezaten, die God verdreven heeft van het aangezicht onzer vaderen, tot de dagen van David toe; 46Dewelke voor God genade gevonden heeft, en begeerd heeft te vinden een woonstede voor den God Jakobs. 47En Salomo bouwde Hem een huis. 48Maar de Allerhoogste woont niet in tempelen met handen gemaakt; gelijk de profeet zegt: 49De hemel is Mij een troon, en de aarde een voetbank Mijner voeten. Hoedanig huis zult gij Mij bouwen, zegt de Heere, of welke is de plaats Mijner ruste? 50Heeft niet Mijn hand al deze dingen gemaakt? 51Gij hardnekkigen en onbesnedenen van hart en oren, gij wederstaat altijd den Heiligen Geest; gelijk uw vaders, alzo ook gij. 52Wien van de profeten hebben uw vaders niet vervolgd? En zij hebben gedood degenen, die te voren verkondigd hebben de komst des Rechtvaardigen, van Welken gijlieden nu verraders en moordenaars geworden zijt. 53Gij, die de wet ontvangen hebt door bestellingen der engelen, en hebt ze niet gehouden! 54Als zij nu dit hoorden, berstten hun harten, en zij knersten de tanden tegen hem. 55Maar hij, vol zijnde des Heiligen Geestes, en de ogen houdende naar den hemel, zag de heerlijkheid Gods, en Jezus, staande ter rechter hand Gods. 56En hij zeide: Ziet, ik zie de hemelen geopend, en den Zoon des mensen, staande ter rechter hand Gods. 57Maar zij, roepende met grote stemme, stopten hun oren, en vielen eendrachtelijk op hem aan; 58En wierpen hem ter stad uit, en stenigden hem; en de getuigen legden hun klederen af aan de voeten eens jongelings, genaamd Saulus. 59En zij stenigden Stefanus, aanroepende en zeggende: Heere Jezus, ontvang mijn geest. 60En vallende op de knieen, riep hij met grote stem: Heere, reken hun deze zonde niet toe! En als hij dat gezegd had, ontsliep hij.
