Then they hurled insults at him and said,“ You are this fellow’s disciple! We are disciples of Moses!

Then they began to attack him with their words.“ You are this fellow’s disciple!” they said.“ We are disciples of Moses!

And they reviled him, saying,“ You are his disciple, but we are disciples of Moses.

They ridiculed him:“ You’re that man’s disciple, but we’re Moses’s disciples.

They spoke abusively to him and said,“ You are His disciple, but we are disciples of Moses.

You who call yourselves Jews are relying on God’s law, and you boast about your special relationship with him.

“ Have you been led astray, too?” the Pharisees mocked.“ Is there a single one of us rulers or Pharisees who believes in him?This foolish crowd follows him, but they are ignorant of the law. God’s curse is on them!”Then Nicodemus, the leader who had met with Jesus earlier, spoke up.“ Is it legal to convict a man before he is given a hearing?” he asked.They replied,“ Are you from Galilee, too? Search the Scriptures and see for yourself— no prophet ever comes from Galilee!”[ The most ancient Greek manuscripts do not include John 7:53–8:11.]

So they persuaded some men to lie about Stephen, saying,“ We heard him blaspheme Moses, and even God.”This roused the people, the elders, and the teachers of religious law. So they arrested Stephen and brought him before the high council.The lying witnesses said,“ This man is always speaking against the holy Temple and against the law of Moses.We have heard him say that this Jesus of Nazareth will destroy the Temple and change the customs Moses handed down to us.”

“ Yet it isn’t I who will accuse you before the Father. Moses will accuse you! Yes, Moses, in whom you put your hopes.If you really believed Moses, you would believe me, because he wrote about me.But since you don’t believe what he wrote, how will you believe what I say?”

We work wearily with our own hands to earn our living. We bless those who curse us. We are patient with those who abuse us.

“ God blesses you when people mock you and persecute you and lie about you and say all sorts of evil things against you because you are my followers.

The people passing by shouted abuse, shaking their heads in mockery.

“ Listen to me, you who know right from wrong, you who cherish my law in your hearts. Do not be afraid of people’s scorn, nor fear their insults.

“ You were born a total sinner!” they answered.“ Are you trying to teach us?” And they threw him out of the synagogue.

He did not retaliate when he was insulted, nor threaten revenge when he suffered. He left his case in the hands of God, who always judges fairly.

Moses gave you the law, but none of you obeys it! In fact, you are trying to kill me.”

or are thieves, or greedy people, or drunkards, or are abusive, or cheat people— none of these will inherit the Kingdom of God.
