Deeds (Act) of Apostles 8:1-5

¹But Saul was consenting to his death. And great persecution was made that day in the church, that was in Jerusalem. And all men were scattered by the countries (or into the provinces) of Judea and Samaria, except the apostles.

²But good or dread-full men buried Stephen, and made great mourning on him. (And some good or devout men buried Stephen, and greatly mourned over him.)

³But Saul greatly destroyed the church, and entered by houses, and drew out men and women, and betook them into prison or into keeping, (or and delivered them to prison).

⁴And they that were scattered, passed forth, preaching the word of God.

⁵And Philip came down into a city of Samaria, and preached to them Christ. (And Philip came down to a city in Samaria, and preached to them about the Messiah.)
