And Saul was assenting to his death, and there came in that day a great persecution upon the assembly in Jerusalem, all also were scattered abroad in the regions of Judea and Samaria, except the apostles;
2
and devout men carried away Stephen, and made great lamentation over him;
3
and Saul was making havoc of the assembly, into every house entering, and haling men and women, was giving them up to prison;
4
they then indeed, having been scattered, went abroad proclaiming good news -- the word.
5
And Philip having gone down to a city of Samaria, was preaching to them the Christ,
6
the multitudes also were giving heed to the things spoken by Philip, with one accord, in their hearing and seeing the signs that he was doing,
7
for unclean spirits came forth from many who were possessed, crying with a loud voice, and many who have been paralytic and lame were healed,
8
and there was great joy in that city.
