7:55 But Stephen,
full of the
Holy Spirit,
looked intently toward heaven and saw the
glory of
God,
and Jesus standing at the
right hand of
God.
56 “
Look!” he
said.
“I
see the
heavens opened,
and the
Son of
Man standing at the
right hand of
God!”
57 But they
covered their ears,
shouting out with a
loud voice,
and rushed at him with one intent.
58 When
they had
driven him
out of the
city, they began to
stone him,
and the
witnesses laid their cloaks at the
feet of a
young man named Saul.
59 They
continued to
stone Stephen while he
prayed, “
Lord Jesus,
receive my spirit!”
60 Then he
fell to his
knees and
cried out with a
loud voice, “
Lord, do
not hold this sin against
them!”
When
he had
said this, he
died.
