Hechos 7:51-60 DHH Pero ustedes siguió diciendo Esteban siempre han sido tercos, y tienen oídos y corazón paganos. Siempre están en contra del Espíritu Santo. Son iguales que sus antepasados. ¿A cuál de los profetas no maltrataron los antepasados de ustedes? Ellos mataron a quienes habían hablado de la venida de aquel que es justo, y ahora que este justo ya ha venido, ustedes lo traicionaron y lo mataron. Ustedes, que recibieron la ley por medio de ángeles, no la obedecen. Cuando oyeron estas cosas, se enfurecieron y rechinaron los dientes contra Esteban. Pero él, lleno del Espíritu Santo, miró al cielo y vio la gloria de Dios, y a Jesús de pie a la derecha de Dios. Entonces dijo: ¡Miren! Veo los cielos abiertos, y al Hijo del hombre a la derecha de Dios. Pero ellos se taparon los oídos, y dando fuertes gritos se lanzaron todos contra él. Lo sacaron de la ciudad y lo apedrearon; los que hacían de testigos contra él dejaron sus ropas al cuidado de un joven llamado Saulo. Mientras lo apedreaban, Esteban oró, diciendo: Señor Jesús, recibe mi espíritu. Luego se puso de rodillas y gritó con voz fuerte: ¡Señor, no les tomes en cuenta este pecado! Habiendo dicho esto, murió.
Acts 7:51-60 ERV Then Stephen said, “You stubborn Jewish leaders! You refuse to give your hearts to God or even listen to him. You are always against what the Holy Spirit wants you to do. That’s how your ancestors were, and you are just like them! They persecuted every prophet who ever lived. They even killed those who long ago said that the Righteous One would come. And now you have turned against that Righteous One and killed him. You are the people who received God’s law, which he gave you through his angels. But you don’t obey it!” When those in the council meeting heard this, they became very angry. They were so mad they were grinding their teeth at him. But Stephen was full of the Holy Spirit. He looked up into heaven and saw the glory of God. And he saw Jesus standing at God’s right side. Stephen said, “Look! I see heaven open. And I see the Son of Man standing at God’s right side.” Everyone there started shouting loudly, covering their ears with their hands. Together they all ran at Stephen. They took him out of the city and began throwing stones at him. The men who told lies against Stephen gave their coats to a young man named Saul. As they were throwing the stones at him, Stephen was praying. He said, “Lord Jesus, receive my spirit!” He fell on his knees and shouted, “Lord, don’t blame them for this sin!” These were his last words before he died.
Dios te ama!
