Ngalezo zinsuku, abafundi banda, kwavela ukukhonona kwabekhuluma isiGreki ngamaHeberu, ngokuba abafelokazi bawo babenganakwa enkonzweni yezinsuku zonke.
Abayishumi nambili base bebizela kubo uquqaba lwabafundi, bathi: “Akukuhle ukuba thina sishiye izwi likaNkulunkulu, sikhonze ematafuleni.
Ngakho-ke, bazalwane, zifuneleni phakathi kwenu amadoda ayisikhombisa anodumo oluhle, agcwele uMoya oNgcwele nokuhlakanipha, esingawabeka phezu kwalo msebenzi.
Kepha thina siyakukhuthalela ukukhuleka, nasenkonzweni yezwi.
Lelizwi lathokozisa ixuku lonke, basebekhetha uStefane, indoda egcwele ukholo loMoya oNgcwele, loFiliphu, loProkoro, loNikanori, loTimoni, loParmena, loNikolasi umproselithe waseAntiyoki;
ababeka phambi kwabaphostoli; sebekhulekile babeka izandla phezu kwabo.
Lelizwi likaNkulunkulu landa; isibalo sabafundi sanda kakhulu eJerusalema; nesixuku esikhulu sabapristi salalela ukholo.
Kepha uStefanu egcwele ukholo namandla wenza izimangaliso nezimangaliso ezinkulu phakathi kwabantu.
Kwasekusukuma abathile besinagoge elithiwa elabaKhululwa, nabaseKhurene, nabase-Aleksandriya, nabavela eKhilikhiya nase-Asiya, baphikisana noStefanu;
Kodwa babengelakho ukumelana lokuhlakanipha loMoya ayekhuluma ngaye.
Khona bakhohlisa amadoda athi: Simzwile ekhuluma amazwi enhlamba ngoMozisi langoNkulunkulu.
Basebevusa abantu labadala lababhali, basebesondela kuye, bambamba, bamusa emphakathini;
Base bemisa ofakazi bamanga abathi: “Lona kayeki ukukhuluma amazwi ayinhlamba ngale ndawo engcwele nangomthetho;
Ngokuba simzwile ethi loJesu waseNazaretha uzakuchitha le ndawo, aguqule amasiko uMose asinika wona.
Bonke ababehlezi emphakathini bamgqolozela, babona ubuso bakhe kungathi ubuso bengelosi.
