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.

Then the
twelve called the
multitude of the
disciples unto them, and
said, It

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:
