⁵¹ Then Stephen said, ‘You people do not want to obey God! You do not want to listen to God's true message. You are the same as your ancestors. Like them, you always fight against what the Holy Spirit says. ⁵² Your ancestors did bad things to every prophet that God sent to them. They even killed the prophets who told them about the Righteous Man that God would send. Now you have given that Man to his enemies. You have made them kill him. ⁵³ You are the people who received God's Law. God caused his angels to give that Law to your ancestors. But you have not obeyed it.’
