Acts of the Apostles 6

King James Bible	Bibbia Vulgata Clementina
¹ And in those days, when the number of the disciples was multiplied, there arose a murmuring of the Grecians against the Hebrews, because their widows were neglected in the daily ministration.	¹ In diebus illis, crescente numero discipulorum, factum est murmur Græcorum adversus Hebræos, eo quod despicerentur in ministerio quotidiano viduæ eorum.
² Then the twelve called the multitude of the disciples unto them, and said, It is not reason that we should leave the word of God, and serve tables.	² Convocantes autem duodecim multitudinem discipulorum, dixerunt : Non est æquum nos derelinquere verbum Dei, et ministrare mensis.
³ Wherefore, brethren, look ye out among you seven men of honest report, full of the Holy Ghost and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business.	³ Considerate ergo, fratres, viros ex vobis boni testimonii septem, plenos Spiritu Sancto et sapientia, quos constituamus super hoc opus.
⁴ But we will give ourselves continually to prayer, and to the ministry of the word.	⁴ Nos vero orationi et ministerio verbi instantes erimus.
⁵ And the saying pleased the whole multitude: and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Ghost, and Philip, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicolas a proselyte of Antioch:	⁵ Et placuit sermo coram omni multitudine. Et elegerunt Stephanum, virum plenum fide et Spiritu Sancto, et Philippum, et Prochorum, et Nicanorem, et Timonem, et Parmenam, et Nicolaum advenam Antiochenum.
⁶ Whom they set before the apostles: and when they had prayed, they laid their hands on them.	⁶ Hos statuerunt ante conspectum Apostolorum : et orantes imposuerunt eis manus.
⁷ And the word of God increased; and the number of the disciples multiplied in Jerusalem greatly; and a great company of the priests were obedient to the faith.	⁷ Et verbum Domini crescebat, et multiplicabatur numerus discipulorum in Jerusalem valde : multa etiam turba sacerdotum obediebat fidei.
⁸ And Stephen, full of faith and power, did great wonders and miracles among the people.	⁸ Stephanus autem plenus gratia et fortitudine, faciebat prodigia et signa magna in populo.
⁹ Then there arose certain of the synagogue, which is called the synagogue of the Libertines, and Cyrenians, and Alexandrians, and of them of Cilicia and of Asia, disputing with Stephen.	⁹ Surrexerunt autem quidam de synagoga quæ appellatur Libertinorum, et Cyrenensium, et Alexandrinorum, et eorum qui erant a Cilicia, et Asia, disputantes cum Stephano :
¹⁰ And they were not able to resist the wisdom and the spirit by which he spake.	¹⁰ et non poterant resistere sapientiæ, et Spiritui qui loquebatur.
¹¹ Then they suborned men, which said, We have heard him speak blasphemous words against Moses, and against God.	¹¹ Tunc summiserunt viros, qui dicerent se audivisse eum dicentem verba blasphemiæ in Moysen et in Deum.
¹² And they stirred up the people, and the elders, and the scribes, and came upon him, and caught him, and brought him to the council,	¹² Commoverunt itaque plebem, et seniores, et scribas : et concurrentes rapuerunt eum, et adduxerunt in concilium,
¹³ And set up false witnesses, which said, This man ceaseth not to speak blasphemous words against this holy place, and the law:	¹³ et statuerunt falsos testes, qui dicerent : Homo iste non cessat loqui verba adversus locum sanctum, et legem :
¹⁴ For we have heard him say, that this Jesus of Nazareth shall destroy this place, and shall change the customs which Moses delivered us.	¹⁴ audivimus enim eum dicentem quoniam Jesus Nazarenus hic destruet locum istum, et mutabit traditiones quas tradidit nobis Moyses.
¹⁵ And all that sat in the council, looking stedfastly on him, saw his face as it had been the face of an angel.	¹⁵ Et intuentes eum omnes qui sedebant in concilio, viderunt faciem ejus tamquam faciem angeli.
