*
In and the days those increasing the disciples ,
came a murmuring of the Hellenists to the Hebrews ,
because were overlooked in the service the daily the widows of them .
*
Having called and the twelve the multitude of the disciples ,
said :
Not proper it is us having left the word of the God ,
to serve tables .
*
Look you out therefore ,
brethren ,
men from of you being attested seven ,
full of spirit and wisdom ,
whom we will appoint to the need this ;
*
we but to the prayer and to the service of the word will constantly attend .
*
And pleased the word in presence of all of the multitude ;
and they chose Stephen ,
a man full of faith and spirit holy ,
and Philip ,
and Prochorus ,
and Nicanor ,
and Timon ,
and Parmenas ,
and Nicolaus a proselyte of Antioch ;
*
whom they placed in presence of the apostles ;
and having prayed they put to them the hands .
*
And the word of the God grew ,
and was multiplied the number of the disciples in Jerusalem greatly ;
great and a crowd of the priests were obedient to the faith .
