44:007:055 But he, being full of the Holy Ghost, looked up stedfastly into heaven, and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God,
44:007:056 And said, Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man
standing on the right hand of God.
44:007:057 Then they cried out with a loud voice, and stopped their ears,
and ran upon him with one accord,
44:007:058 And cast him out of the city, and stoned him: and the witnesses laid down their clothes at a young man's feet, whose name was Saul.
44:007:059 And they stoned Stephen, calling upon God, and saying, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.
44:007:060 And he kneeled down, and cried with a loud voice, Lord, lay not this sin to their charge. And when he had said this, he fell asleep.
44:008:001 And Saul was consenting unto his death. And at that time there was a great persecution against the church which was at Jerusalem; and they were all scattered abroad throughout the regions of Judaea and Samaria, except the apostles.
44:008:002 And devout men carried Stephen to his burial, and made great
lamentation over him.
44:008:003 As for Saul, he made havock of the church, entering into every
house, and haling men and women committed them to prison.
44:008:004 Therefore they that were scattered abroad went every where
preaching the word.
