1 Now in those days, as the disciples were multiplied, there was murmuring among the Hellenists against the Hebrews, because their widows were overlooked in the daily distribution.
2 So the twelve called the multitude of disciples together and said, “It is not reasonable for us to leave the word of God and serve tables.
3 Brothers, look among yourselves for seven men who are known to be full of the Holy Spirit and of wisdom, whom we will appoint over this duty.
4 But we will give ourselves continually to prayer and to the ministry of the word.”
