But he,
1full of the Holy Spirit, gazed into heaven and saw
2the glory of God, and Jesus standing
3at the right hand of God.
56
And he said, "Behold, I see
4the heavens opened, and
5the Son of Man standing
6at the right hand of God."
57
But they cried out with a loud voice and stopped their ears and rushed together at him.
58
Then
7they cast him out of the city and
8stoned him. And
9the witnesses laid down their garments
10at the feet of a young man named Saul.
59
And as they were stoning Stephen,
11he called out, "Lord Jesus,
12receive my spirit."
60
And
13falling to his knees he cried out with a loud voice,
14"Lord, do not hold this sin against them." And when he had said this,
15he fell asleep.
