6 New English Bible (New Testament) Passage New Testament in Greek (UBS.Ed.26)

8Stephen, who was full of grace and power, began to work great miracles and signs among the people.The Arrest of Stephen Ac.6.8-15 (Jerusalem)Στέφανος δὲ πλήρης χάριτος καὶ δυνάμεως ἐποίει τέρατα καὶ σημεῖα μεγάλα ἐν τῷ λαῷ.
9But some members of the synagogue called the Synagogue of Freedmen, comprising Cyrenians and Alexandrians and people from Cilicia and Asia, came forward and argued with Stephen, ἀνέστησαν δέ τινες τῶν ἐκ τῆς συναγωγῆς τῆς λεγομένης Λιβερτίνων καὶ Κυρηναίων καὶ Ἀλεξανδρέων καὶ τῶν ἀπὸ Κιλικίας καὶ Ἀσίας συζητοῦντες τῷ Στεφάνῳ,
10but could not hold their own against the inspired wisdom with which he spoke. καὶ οὐκ ἰσχυον ἀντιστῆναι τῇ σοφίᾳ καὶ τῷ πνεύματι ᾧ ἐλάλει.
11They then put up men who alleged that they had heard him make blasphemous statements against Moses and against God. τότε ὑπέβαλον ἀνδρας λέγοντας ὅτι Ἀκηκόαμεν αὐτοῦ λαλοῦντος ῥήματα βλάσφημα εἰς Μωϋσῆν καὶ τὸν θεόν·
12They stirred up the people and the elders and doctors of the law, set upon him and seized him, and brought him before the Council. συνεκίνησάν τε τὸν λαὸν καὶ τοὺς πρεσβυτέρους καὶ τοὺς γραμματεῖς, καὶ ἐπιστάντες συνήρπασαν αὐτὸν καὶ ἠγαγον εἰς τὸ συνέδριον,
13They produced false witnesses who said, 'This man is for ever saying things against this holy place and against the Law. ἐστησάν τε μάρτυρας ψευδεῖς λέγοντας, Ὁ ἄνθρωπος οὗτος οὐ παύεται λαλῶν ῥήματα κατὰ τοῦ τόπου τοῦ ἀγίου τούτου καὶ τοῦ νόμου·
14For we have heard him say that Jesus of Nazareth will destroy this place and alter the customs handed down to us by Moses.' ἀκηκόαμεν γὰρ αὐτοῦ λέγοντος ὅτι Ἰησοῦς ὁ Ναζωραῖος οὗτος καταλύσει τὸν τόπον τοῦτον καὶ ἀλλάξει τὰ ἐθη ἂ παρέδωκεν ἡμῖν Μωϋσῆς.
15And all who were sitting in the Council fixed their eyes on him, and his face appeared to them like the face of an angel.
 καὶ ἀτενίσαντες εἰς αὐτὸν πάντες οἱ καθεζόμενοι ἐν τῷ συνεδρίῳ εἶδον τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ ὡσεὶ πρόσωπον ἀγγέλου.
