Acts 8:1-4 ▼

1 And Saul was assenting to his death, and there came in that day a great persecution on the Assembly in Jerusalem, all were also scattered abroad in the regions of Judea and Samaria, except the apostles;

2 and devout men carried Stephen away, and made great lamentation over him;

3 and Saul was making havoc of the Assembly, entering into every house, and dragging away men and women, giving them up to prison;

4 they then indeed, having been scattered, went abroad proclaiming good news—the word.
