使徒行传 6
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
選出七位執事
6 門徒不斷增加的時候,講希臘話的猶太人,埋怨本地的希伯來人,因為在日常的供給上,忽略了他們的寡婦。 2 於是十二使徒召集了眾門徒,說:“要我們放下 神的道,去管理伙食,是不合適的。 3 所以弟兄們,應當從你們中間選出七個有好見證、滿有聖靈和智慧的人,我們就派他們負責這事。 4 至於我們,我們要專心祈禱、傳道。” 5 這個意見全會眾都很滿意,於是選出司提反,他是一位滿有信心和聖靈的人,還有腓利、伯羅哥羅、尼加挪、提門、巴米拿,以及歸信猶太教的安提阿人尼哥拉, 6 叫他們站在使徒面前。使徒禱告後,就為他們按手。 7 神的道傳開了;在耶路撒冷,門徒人數大大增加,有很多祭司也信從了真道。
司提反被捕
8 司提反滿有恩惠能力,在民間施行大奇事和神蹟。 9 當時有幾個稱為“自由人”會堂的人,就是從古利奈和亞歷山太來的人,另外還有基利家人和亞西亞人,他們出面與司提反辯論, 10 但司提反靠著聖靈和智慧說話,他們就抵擋不住。 11 於是他們唆使眾人,說:“我們聽過他說謗瀆摩西和 神的話。” 12 又煽動民眾、長老、經學家,這些人就來捉拿他,把他帶到公議會, 13 並且造了假的證供說:“這人不斷抨擊聖地和律法。 14 我們聽他說過:‘這拿撒勒人耶穌要毀壞這地方,改變摩西傳給我們的規例。’” 15 當時,坐在公議會裡的人,都注視他,見他的面貌像天使一樣。
Acts 6
New Matthew Bible
Ministers (or deacons) are ordained in the congregation to do service in necessary things of the body so that the apostles may attend only to the word of God. Stephen is accused.
6 In those days, as the number of the disciples grew, there arose a grudge among the Greeks against the Hebrews, because their widows were neglected in the daily distribution. 2 Then the twelve called all of the disciples together and said, It is not right that we should leave the word of God and serve at the tables. 3 Therefore, brethren, choose from among you seven men of good reputation, and full of the Holy Spirit and wisdom, whom we may appoint to this needful business. 4 But we will give ourselves continually to prayer and to the ministry of the word.
5 And this proposal pleased the whole assembly. And they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit, and Philip, Prochorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, and Nicolas, a convert from Antioch. 6 These they set before the apostles, and they prayed and laid their hands on them.
7 And the word of God advanced, and the number of the disciples multiplied in Jerusalem greatly, and a great company of the priests accepted the faith. 8 And Stephen, full of faith and power, did great wonders and miracles among the people.
9 Then some of those who were of the synagogue of the Freedmen (as it was called), and Cyrenians, and some from Alexandria and Cilicia and Asia, arose and disputed with Stephen. 10 But they could not resist the wisdom and the spirit with which he spoke. 11 Then they sent in men who said, We have heard him speak blasphemous words against Moses, and against God. 12 And they moved the people and the elders and the scribes, and came upon him and caught him, and brought him to the council. 13 And they brought forth false witnesses, who said, This man does not cease to speak blasphemous words against this holy place and the law, 14 for we heard him say that this Jesus of Nazareth will destroy this place, and will change the ordinances that Moses gave us.
15 And all who sat in the council looked steadfastly on him, and saw his face, as it were the face of an angel.
Acts 6
New International Version
The Choosing of the Seven
6 In those days when the number of disciples was increasing,(A) the Hellenistic Jews[a](B) among them complained against the Hebraic Jews because their widows(C) were being overlooked in the daily distribution of food.(D) 2 So the Twelve gathered all the disciples(E) together and said, “It would not be right for us to neglect the ministry of the word of God(F) in order to wait on tables. 3 Brothers and sisters,(G) choose seven men from among you who are known to be full of the Spirit(H) and wisdom. We will turn this responsibility over to them(I) 4 and will give our attention to prayer(J) and the ministry of the word.”
5 This proposal pleased the whole group. They chose Stephen,(K) a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit;(L) also Philip,(M) Procorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, and Nicolas from Antioch, a convert to Judaism. 6 They presented these men to the apostles, who prayed(N) and laid their hands on them.(O)
7 So the word of God spread.(P) The number of disciples in Jerusalem increased rapidly,(Q) and a large number of priests became obedient to the faith.
Stephen Seized
8 Now Stephen, a man full of God’s grace and power, performed great wonders and signs(R) among the people. 9 Opposition arose, however, from members of the Synagogue of the Freedmen (as it was called)—Jews of Cyrene(S) and Alexandria as well as the provinces of Cilicia(T) and Asia(U)—who began to argue with Stephen. 10 But they could not stand up against the wisdom the Spirit gave him as he spoke.(V)
11 Then they secretly(W) persuaded some men to say, “We have heard Stephen speak blasphemous words against Moses and against God.”(X)
12 So they stirred up the people and the elders and the teachers of the law. They seized Stephen and brought him before the Sanhedrin.(Y) 13 They produced false witnesses,(Z) who testified, “This fellow never stops speaking against this holy place(AA) and against the law. 14 For we have heard him say that this Jesus of Nazareth will destroy this place(AB) and change the customs Moses handed down to us.”(AC)
15 All who were sitting in the Sanhedrin(AD) looked intently at Stephen, and they saw that his face was like the face of an angel.

Nova Traduҫão na Linguagem de Hoje 2000
Sete auxiliares para os apóstolos
6 Algum tempo depois, o número de judeus que se tornaram seguidores de Jesus aumentou muito, e os que tinham sido criados fora da terra de Israel começaram a se queixar dos que tinham sido criados em Israel. A queixa deles era que as viúvas do seu grupo estavam sendo esquecidas na distribuição diária de dinheiro. 2 Então os doze apóstolos reuniram todo o grupo de seguidores e disseram:
— Não está certo nós deixarmos de anunciar a palavra de Deus para tratarmos de dinheiro. 3 Por isso, irmãos, escolham entre vocês sete homens de confiança, cheios do Espírito Santo e de sabedoria, e nós entregaremos esse serviço a eles. 4 Assim nós poderemos continuar usando todo o nosso tempo na oração e no trabalho de anunciar a palavra de Deus.
5 Todos concordaram com a proposta dos apóstolos. Então escolheram Estêvão, um homem cheio de fé e do Espírito Santo, e também Filipe, Prócoro, Nicanor, Timom, Pármenas e Nicolau de Antioquia, um não judeu que antes tinha se convertido ao Judaísmo. 6 Esses homens foram levados aos apóstolos, que oraram e puseram as mãos sobre a cabeça deles.
7 A palavra de Deus continuava a se espalhar. Em Jerusalém o número dos seguidores de Jesus crescia cada vez mais, e era grande o número de sacerdotes judeus que aceitavam a fé cristã.
A prisão de Estêvão
8 Estêvão, um homem muito abençoado por Deus e cheio de poder, fazia grandes maravilhas e milagres entre o povo. 9 Mas ficaram contra ele alguns membros da “Sinagoga dos Homens Livres”, que era a sinagoga dos judeus que tinham vindo das cidades de Cirene e Alexandria. Estes e outros judeus da região da Cilícia e da província da Ásia começaram a discutir com Estêvão. 10 Mas o Espírito de Deus dava tanta sabedoria a Estêvão, que ele ganhava todas as discussões. 11 Então eles pagaram algumas pessoas para dizerem:
— Nós ouvimos este homem dizer blasfêmias contra Moisés e contra Deus!
12 Dessa maneira eles atiçaram o povo, os líderes e os mestres da Lei. Depois foram, agarraram Estêvão e o levaram ao Conselho Superior. 13 Então arranjaram alguns homens para dizerem mentiras a respeito dele. Essas pessoas afirmaram o seguinte:
— Este homem não para de falar contra o nosso santo Templo e contra a Lei de Moisés. 14 Nós o ouvimos quando ele dizia que esse Jesus de Nazaré vai destruir o Templo e mudar todos os costumes que Moisés nos deu.
15 Todos os que estavam sentados na sala do Conselho Superior olhavam firmemente para Estêvão e viram que o rosto dele parecia o rosto de um anjo.
Acts 6
King James Version
6 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.
2 Then the twelve called the multitude of the disciples unto them, and said, It is not reason that we should leave the word of God, and serve tables.
3 Wherefore, brethren, look ye out among you seven men of honest report, full of the Holy Ghost and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business.
4 But we will give ourselves continually to prayer, and to the ministry of the word.
5 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:
6 Whom they set before the apostles: and when they had prayed, they laid their hands on them.
7 And the word of God increased; and the number of the disciples multiplied in Jerusalem greatly; and a great company of the priests were obedient to the faith.
8 And Stephen, full of faith and power, did great wonders and miracles among the people.
9 Then there arose certain of the synagogue, which is called the synagogue of the Libertines, and Cyrenians, and Alexandrians, and of them of Cilicia and of Asia, disputing with Stephen.
10 And they were not able to resist the wisdom and the spirit by which he spake.
11 Then they suborned men, which said, We have heard him speak blasphemous words against Moses, and against God.
12 And they stirred up the people, and the elders, and the scribes, and came upon him, and caught him, and brought him to the council,
13 And set up false witnesses, which said, This man ceaseth not to speak blasphemous words against this holy place, and the law:
14 For we have heard him say, that this Jesus of Nazareth shall destroy this place, and shall change the customs which Moses delivered us.
15 And all that sat in the council, looking stedfastly on him, saw his face as it had been the face of an angel.
