Acts 6:4 in Context — Acts 6

2 Les douze convoquèrent la multitude des disciples, et dirent: Il n’est pas convenable que nous laissions la parole de Dieu pour servir aux tables.

3 C’est pourquoi, frères, choisissez parmi vous sept hommes, de qui l’on rende un bon témoignage, qui soient pleins d’Esprit-Saint et de sagesse, et que nous chargerons de cet emploi.

4 Et nous, nous continuerons à nous appliquer à la prière et au ministère de la parole.

5 Cette proposition plut à toute l’assemblée. Ils élurent Étienne, homme plein de foi et d’Esprit-Saint, Philippe, Prochore, Nicanor, Timon, Parménas, et Nicolas, prosélyte d’Antioche.

6 Ils les présentèrent aux apôtres, qui, après avoir prié, leur imposèrent les mains.
