8. Now Stephen, full of grace (divine blessing and favour) and power (strength and ability) worked great wonders and signs (miracles) among the people. 
9. However, those who belonged to the synagogue of the Freedmen (freed Jewish slaves), as it was called, and (of the synagogues) of the Cyrenians and of the Alexandrians, and of those from Cilicia and the  province of Asia, arose (and undertook to debate and dispute with Stephen.)
10. But they were not able to resist the intelligence and the wisdom and (the inspiration of) the Spirit with which and by Whom he spoke.  
11. So they secretly instigated and instructed  men to say: 'We have heard this man speak, using slanderous and abusive and blasphemous language against Moses and God.'

37. En ná hom het Judas die Galileër opgestaan, in die dae van die inskrywing, en 'n aansienlike getal mense afvallig gemaak agter hom aan. Hy het ook omgekom, en almal wat na hom geluister het, is verstrooi. 
38. 'En nou sê ek vir julle: bly af van hierdie manne en laat hulle staan; want as hierdie voorneme of hierdie werk uit mense is, sal dit vernietig word,
39. 'maar as dit uit God is, kan julle dit nie vernietig nie - dat dit nie miskien bevind word dat julle selfs teen God stry nie.'

36. 'For before our time there arose Theudas, asserting himself to be a person of importance, with whom a number of men allied themselves - about 400 - but he was killed and all who had listened to and adhered to him, were scattered and brought to nothing.  
37. 'And after this one rose up, Judas the Galilean, (who led an uprising) during the time of the census, and drew away a popular following after him; he also perished and all the adherents were scattered. 
38. 'Now in the present case let me say to you, stand off (withdraw) from these men and let them alone. For if this doctrine or purpose or undertaking or movement is of human origin, it will fail (be overthrown) and come to nothing;
39. 'but if it is of God, you will not be able to stop or overthrow or destroy them; you may even be found fighting against God!'
