7:54 When they heard these things, they became furious ¹  and ground their teeth ²  at him.

Kisah Para Rasul 7:59

7:59 They ³  continued to stone Stephen while he prayed, “Lord Jesus, receive my spirit!”

[7:54]  ¹ tn This verb, which also occurs in Acts 5:33, means “cut to the quick” or “deeply infuriated” (BDAG 235 s.v. διαπρίω).

[7:54]  ² tn Or “they gnashed their teeth.” This idiom is a picture of violent rage (BDAG 184 s.v. βρύχω). See also Ps 35:16.

[7:59]  ³ tn Grk “And they.” Because of the length of the Greek sentence and the tendency of contemporary English style to use shorter sentences, καί (kai) has not been translated here; a new sentence is begun instead.
