Deeds (Act) of Apostles 6:3-8

³Therefore, brethren, behold ye men of you of good fame or of good witnessing, seven, full of the Holy Ghost, and of wisdom, whom we shall ordain on this work;

⁴for we shall be busy to prayer, and to preach, or ministry, or preaching, of the word of God.

⁵And the word pleased before or to all the 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 comeling or a guest, a man of Antioch.

⁶They ordained these before the sight of the apostles, and they prayed, and laid hands on them.

⁷And the word of the Lord waxed, and the number of the disciples in Jerusalem was much multiplied; also a much company of priests obeyed to the faith.

⁸And Stephen, full of grace and of strength, made wonders and great signs in the people.
