Acts 7:54-60

Listen to Acts 7:54-60

Stephen’s Martyrdom

54 Now [when they] heard these [things], they were infuriated in their hearts and gnashed [their] teeth at him.
55 But he, being full of the Holy Spirit, looked intently into 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 But crying out with a loud voice, they stopped their ears and rushed at him with one purpose.
58 And [after they] had driven [him] out of the city, they began to stone [him], and the witnesses laid aside their cloaks at the feet of a young man named Saul.
59 And they kept on stoning Stephen [as he] was calling out and saying, "Lord Jesus, receive my spirit!"
60 And falling to [his] knees, he cried out with a loud voice, "Lord, do not hold this sin against them!" And [after he] said this, he fell asleep.
