Acts 7:49-57

⁴⁹'Heaven is my throne, and the earth is the footstool for my feet. What kind of house can you build for me? says the Lord, or what is the place for my rest?

⁵⁰Did my hand not make all these things?'

⁵¹You people who are stiff-necked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, you always resist the Holy Spirit; you act just as your fathers acted.

⁵²Which of the prophets did your fathers not persecute? They killed the prophets who appeared in advance of the coming of the Righteous One; and you have now become the betrayers and murderers of him also,

⁵³you people who received the law that angels had established, but you did not keep it.”

⁵⁴Now when the council members heard these things, they were cut to the heart, and they ground their teeth at Stephen.

⁵⁵But he, being full of the Holy Spirit, looked up intently into heaven and saw the glory of God; and he saw Jesus standing at the right hand of God.

⁵⁶Stephen said, “Look, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God.”

⁵⁷At this the council members covered their ears, and shouting out with a loud voice, altogether they rushed at him.
