Acts 7:56–8:3

TEXT EDITION
7:56And said, Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing on the right hand of God.
7:57Then they cried out with a loud voice, and stopped their ears, and ran upon him with one accord,
7:58And cast him out of the city, and stoned him: and the witnesses laid down their clothes at a young man’s feet, whose name was Saul.
7:59And they stoned Stephen, calling upon God, and saying, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.
7:60And he kneeled down, and cried with a loud voice, Lord, lay not this sin to their charge. And when he had said this, he fell asleep.
8:1AND Saul was consenting unto his death. And at that time there was a great persecution against the church which was at Jerusalem; and they were all scattered abroad throughout the regions of Judæa and Samaria, except the apostles.
8:2And devout men carried Stephen to his burial, and made great lamentation over him.
8:3As for Saul, he made havock of the church, entering into every house, and haling men and women committed them to prison.
