Acts 7:54-60
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
The Stoning of Stephen
54 Now when they heard these things they were enraged, and they ground their teeth against him. 55 But he, full of the Holy Spirit, gazed into heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God; 56 and he said, “Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing at the right hand of God.” 57 But they cried out with a loud voice and stopped their ears and rushed together upon him. 58 Then they cast him out of the city and stoned him; and the witnesses laid down their garments at the feet of a young man named Saul. 59 And as they were stoning Stephen, he prayed, “Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.” 60 And he knelt down and cried with a loud voice, “Lord, do not hold this sin against them.” And when he had said this, he fell asleep.

Stephen the Martyr
54 (A)When they heard these things they were [a]cut to the heart, and they gnashed at him with their teeth. 55 But he, (B)being full of the Holy Spirit, gazed into heaven and saw the (C)glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God, 56 and said, “Look! (D)I see the heavens opened and the (E)Son of Man standing at the right hand of God!”
57 Then they cried out with a loud voice, stopped their ears, and ran at him with one accord; 58 and they cast him out of the city and stoned him. And (F)the witnesses laid down their clothes at the feet of a young man named Saul. 59 And they stoned Stephen as he was calling on God and saying, “Lord Jesus, (G)receive my spirit.” 60 Then he knelt down and cried out with a loud voice, (H)“Lord, do not charge them with this sin.” And when he had said this, he fell asleep.
