OK, while I appreciate your attempt at translation the following translations (as well as the original Greek) stand with me and the message is clear:

Acts 7:55-56 (New International Version)

Acts 7:55-56 (The Message)

54-56At that point they went wild, a rioting mob of catcalls and whistles and invective.

I see heaven wide open and the Son of Man standing at God’s side!”

What is your affiliation?

Between that and being late for class our confidence in your credentials and expertise on the subject is waning...

And my lunch grows stale...
