Acts 7 (PBW) · Opened

1Mangaka, na Ratu Bakkul wina, "Penya tonou tekana?"Then the high priest asked Stephen, “Are these charges true?”

2Hi Stefanus napa gaping, "Aku oali beigimi jaka aku ama gimi, kami ranguwa. Hi Allah nama reihi biaha madi napa tekkang wikina ta ama peanguda, hi Abraham, ana enganguha ta Mesopotamia, adadi na engang ta Haran.And Stephen declared: “Brothers and fathers, listen to me! The God of glory appeared to our father Abraham while he was still in Mesopotamia, before he lived in Haran,

3Hi winanya, "Kamu louhung waling ta tanamu jaka ta joanga oali beimu, manga kamu halaku ta tana napa patekkang lahi ou.and told him, ‘Leave your country and your kindred and go to the land I will show you.’

4Jiayaka, hi Abraham hina jujakunya na tana tou Kasdim hina engang ta Haran. Wali nou naka, ana matika na ama na, hi Allah napaleawaya gehir tapa padou pingi pa eigu ta atouna.So Abraham left the land of the Chaldeans and settled in Haran. After his father died, God brought him out of that place and into this land where you are now living.

5Jidika, hi Allah dana woamanya hapoati pataguna, japa hajiwit tana dawoanya, jidika eingu papeakananya yana tana jiaya napa woagu gu jaka na huhu anamu. Jiakuka dadi eimang anana nutu.He gave him no inheritance here, not even a foot of ground. But God promised to give possession of the land to Abraham and his descendants, even though he did not yet have a child.

6Jidinguka, wina nawinina, na huhu anana na jaji tou tama joanga jaka pali atanya jaka paheliya nama angu patu ngahu doung.God told him that his descendants would be foreigners in a strange land, and that they would be enslaved and mistreated four hundred years.

7Jidinguka peala ku hukunya na kaleabu tana, nama wolu ya ata, wina na winina "Jaka menga nou hi louhung wali nou hida pakabuang ada wuatu haliwa ta padoungu ya."‘But I will punish the nation that enslaves them,’ God said, ‘and afterward they will come forth and worship Me in this place.’

8Mangu hi Allah nawoanya rahi sunat, manga hi Abraham ei nyaka na anana hi Ishak manga na sunat ana tomaka walu laddu, jaka hi Ishak jiaya na amana hi Yakub, jaka hi Yakub napa anaja nama tom habulu duba tou dama jaji ama bokuda.Then God gave Abraham the covenant of circumcision, and Abraham became the father of Isaac and circumcised him on the eighth day. And Isaac became the father of Jacob, and Jacob of the twelve patriarchs.

9Kadang dana buhanya hi Yusuf, da bokuda hi daganya ta Mesir. Jidinguka, hi Allah na oali marainya hi Yusuf,Because the patriarchs were jealous of Joseph, they sold him as a slave into Egypt. But God was with him

10jaka napa kaloagaya waling tama ma willa, jaka nawoanya kanyuru kanaga jaka pangadang kalung ta hagana hi Firaun, na Raja Mesir, nama pangoduya hina jaji tou nama papareaha ta Mesir jaka ngala kuwahana.and rescued him from all his troubles. He granted Joseph favor and wisdom in the sight of Pharaoh king of Egypt, who appointed him ruler over Egypt and all his household.

11Tikina einyaka jaji einya nakaroba tana ta tana Mesir jaka ta Kanaan, hida liya nama willa dama keri ukunya. Jiaya na ama peangu ina weada hida eingu pa'anguda.Then famine and great suffering swept across Egypt and Canaan, and our fathers could not find food.

12Jiayaka, ana ranguka hu Yakub ta Mesir ajiaya nama eingu pa'angu jiaya hina paleawaya na bokuda nutu lau, jiaya nakawunga halakuda.When Jacob heard that there was grain in Egypt, he sent our fathers on their first visit.

13Napa pa duang waida ada halaku, hi Yusuf napeaka wiki na ta oali beina, jiaya na oali beina hi Yusuf hinya penya hi Firaun.On their second visit, Joseph revealed his identity to his brothers, and his family became known to Pharaoh.

14Wali nou na, hi Yusuf hina pangiding li'i ana kamaikanya hi Yakub na amana, jaka ngala na oali beina dama toma pitumbulu lima na danguda.Then Joseph sent for his father Jacob and all his relatives, seventy-five in all.

15Jiayaka hi Yakub hi amminya ta Mesir hodu ana mati noungu, duna jaka na ama peanguda iata.So Jacob went down to Egypt, where he and our fathers died.

16Waling nimi lau, hi gehir ta Sikhem jaka hina ma turu ta rati napa langa hina hi Abraham waingu a pirrana na ritti waling ta anana hi Hemor ta Sikhem.Their bones were carried back to Shechem and placed in the tomb that Abraham had bought from the sons of Hamor at Shechem for a price he paid in silver.

17Jidinguka, ana mara ranika na rahi napa wolu nou, napa langa papatoma na hi Allah lahi Abraham, na tou taba dangu na ta Mesir.As the time drew near for God to fulfill His promise to Abraham, our people in Egypt increased greatly in number.

18Hodu eingu raja nama buang nama pareaha ta Mesir, dama penya na pingi hawaling hi Yusuf.Then another king, who knew nothing of Joseph, arose over Egypt.

19Na raja ya napa hi nounya ana pahidu ha da ama peangu ma manga paleawaha le'aha da lakeada ana rara hida eingu mamorrik.He exploited our people and oppressed our fathers, forcing them to abandon their infants so they would die.

20Tomaka ana jaji hi Musa nama kadigil ana ittaya hi Allah da pamatuaya na amana hodu tillu wulang.At that time Moses was born, and he was beautiful in the sight of God. For three months he was nurtured in his father’s house.

21A kolling pa le'aya, hina ittaya na mawini Firaun hina dekiya ana pamatua ya toungu ana taguna.When he was set outside, Pharaoh’s daughter took him and brought him up as her own son.

22Manga hi Musa hi peakanya wainya pangadang peangu tou Mesir jaka hina peangu papanewi jaka agannanya napa woluna.So Moses was educated in all the wisdom of the Egyptians and was powerful in speech and action.

23Tikkina hi Musa ana tomaka patumbuli doungu, einyaka ta pangadanguna kaku toma ja da oali biegu, awina na walla wuana waling ta Israel.When Moses was forty years old, he decided to visit his brothers, the children of Israel.

24Einya ana ittaya na tou napa tau tou Mesir, amminya hi Musa ana gatanya na tou napa tauda hina hamatiya na tou Mesir nou.And when he saw one of them being mistreated, Moses went to his defense and avenged him by striking down the Egyptian who was oppressing him.

25Tapa pangadana hi Musa jaka dapeaga da oali beigu touna hi Moiri ana gataja li lahi duna, jidinguka dada peamanya.He assumed his brothers would understand that God was using him to deliver them, but they did not.

26Ana weha lingu, hi Musa amminya hina tomanya na tou Israel nama pataungu, jiaya hina uruhu ana padamija hi wina "Nam jimi da oali beidimi, gawali himi patau wikimi?"The next day he came upon two Israelites who were fighting, and he tried to reconcile them, saying, ‘Men, you are brothers. Why are you mistreating each other?’

27Jidinguka, yana tou nama patau weaga najuharrunya hi Musa taka rahana, manga wina, "Geara nama woluwu ou nam papareaha jaka nama uruhuma jiama?But the man who was abusing his neighbor pushed Moses aside and said, ‘Who made you ruler and judge over us?

28Anang kaku hamatiya wimmuga toungu nutu amu hamatiya na tou Mesir?"Do you want to kill me as you killed the Egyptian yesterday?’

29Naranguyaka napa tikkina, yana tou palai nanyaka hi Musa hina jaji tou patomang ta tana Midian. Nou lau hina pa anaja dama toma dua lakeada moani.At this remark, Moses fled to the land of Midian, where he lived as a foreigner and had two sons.

30Tomaka patum bulu doung, einya na malaikat nama pattekang wikina lahi Musa ta marada ginang ta leti Sinai, ta erik api nama waling ta libu ai.After forty years had passed, an angel appeared to Moses in the flames of a burning bush in the desert near Mount Sinai.

31Ana ittayaka hi Musa, mangodang nanya agannanya napa ittana. Amminya ana lihinya ana eatuya, wing amminyaka na li'ina hi Moiri,When Moses saw it, he marveled at the sight. As he approached to look more closely, the voice of the Lord came to him:

32"Nyouwa ya Allah na ha ama peangumu, Allah Abraham, jaka Allah Ishak, jaka Allah Yakub kawiduk nanya hi Musa ana mange'at jaka dana hilu tara bari maha pa ealuya.‘I am the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.’ Moses trembled with fear and did not dare to look.

33Aminya na winina nama rabba Allah lahi duna "Palouhuja da tara wihimu kadang napa doungu pingi padedimu padoungu biahaya.Then the Lord said to him, ‘Take off your sandals, for the place where you are standing is holy ground.

34Ku ittayaka na lara palina na huhu anagu nama eingu ta Mesir, manga kuranguha ada dangu. Jaka, ammi gaka aku purung aku palouhuja. Ya atouna mai nimmi, nyouwa ku paleawawu ta tana Mesir.I have indeed seen the oppression of My people in Egypt. I have heard their groaning and have come down to deliver them. Now come, I will send you back to Egypt.’

35Hi Musa, napa juharung manga widanya "Geara nama woluwu nama papareaha jaka nama haki ma jiama?" Duna jiaya na tou napa paleawana hi Allah nama pahalakunya nama papareaha jaka napa louhuja, napa idi malaikat napa tekkang wikina ta libu ai.This Moses, whom they had rejected with the words, ‘Who made you ruler and judge?’ is the one whom God sent to be their ruler and redeemer through the angel who appeared to him in the bush.

36N tou nei nama palouhuja, nama wolu tada biaha ta tana Mesir ta Tahik Rara, jaka ta mareda ginang hodu toma patum bulu doung.He led them out and performed wonders and signs in the land of Egypt, at the Red Sea, and for forty years in the wilderness.

37Hi Musa jella nama panewi ta tou Israel, hi Allah napa kiddi gunya tutu tagumu hatou nabi toungu nyouwa ta joanga oali beimu.This is the same Moses who told the Israelites, ‘God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among your brothers.’

38Jiaya nama eingu ta joanga huhu anana ta mareda ginang ta joanga malaikat hina panewi ta leti Sinai, jaka na ama peangu da, nama kaya na wini morrik napa patoma nada iata.He was in the assembly in the wilderness with the angel who spoke to him on Mount Sinai, and with our fathers. And he received living words to pass on to us.

39Na ama peangu da dana kerimaya hi Musa, jidinguka da eimang ma weaku, nama eingu ta atida kana bali ta tana Mesir.But our fathers refused to obey him. Instead, they rejected him and in their hearts turned back to Egypt.

40Widanya hi Harun "Wolugama kahala tou nama halaku ana moulugama, kadang hi Musa yayi nama beigama ana louhung wali ta tana Mesir, dama peamanya agannanya nama jaji lahi duna.They said to Aaron, ‘Make us gods who will go before us! As for this Moses who led us out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has happened to him.’

41Jiayaka nutu, hida woluya naka hala tou nama pahadang ana beabu jaka dama nuatu wainya naka hala ana beabu manga da egi denganya agannanya napa wolu taguda.At that time they made a calf and offered a sacrifice to the idol, rejoicing in the works of their hands.

42Jidinguka, hi Allah dana betimaja kadeanga naja ana mattaja ada pabuatuya na bala tentara langit toungu napa tulih ta hurrat nabinabi, "Eikadinya ami idiga lahi nyouwa beabu padoru jaka manuatung hodu toma patum bulu doung ta mareda ginang, jimi tou Israel?But God turned away from them and gave them over to the worship of the host of heaven, as it is written in the book of the prophets: ‘Did you bring Me sacrifices and offerings forty years in the wilderness, O house of Israel?

43Mi idinya na kema Molokh jaka bintang dewamu, Refan, na kahala tou napa wolumi ami karadanya, jaka nyouwa ku lipa leami ta habali Babel."You have taken along the tabernacle of Molech and the star of your god Rephan, the idols you made to worship. Therefore I will send you into exile beyond Babylon.’

44Na ama peangu, eingu baga pingi makeha ta mareda ginna toungu napa papaleawana hi Allah lahi Musa, ka woluya toungu tahadana napa langa itta.Our fathers had the tabernacle of the Testimony with them in the wilderness. It was constructed exactly as God had directed Moses, according to the pattern he had seen.

45Ada kolling pa kaya na baga nou, na ama peangu da na idi baliya ta tanada ta wawa pareahana hi Yosua, ada parima balinya na tarada wali ta tou heaka, napa langa pamarouna hi Allah waling ta ama peangu hodu toma ana pareaha hi Daud.And our fathers who received it brought it in with Joshua when they dispossessed the nations God drove out before them. It remained until the time of David,

46Hi daud na kolling milla ati loyi kaku lahi Allah manga napa ohaya kana pahellanya padoungu pingi pa einya hi Allah Yakub.who found favor in the sight of God and asked to provide a dwelling place for the God of Jacob.

47Jidinguka, hi Salomo jiaya nama padedinya padoungu tutuna hi Allah.But it was Solomon who built the house for Him.

48Tikkina, nama pareihi jaga dana enga mang ta umma anang tapa doung pawolu tou rara, toungu na patikkina na ata papaleawana.However, the Most High does not dwell in houses made by human hands. As the prophet says:

49"Na awang pingi padedinguya jaka na pinnu tana pingi paletigu. Ga ummaya napa wolumiga, wina na winina hi Moiri, anang gapa dounguya pingi pangodugu?‘Heaven is My throne and the earth is My footstool. What kind of house will you build for Me, says the Lord, or where will My place of repose be?

50Dajia diya nalimmagu nama peangu pawolunya ngala dukana yayi?"Has not My hand made all these things?’

51Nani, jimi tou nama malatung katiku waingu ati jaka kahilu dapa kahapi, mi geanya nahangahu harri, toungu napa wolu ama peangu jaka jimi.You stiff-necked people with uncircumcised hearts and ears! You always resist the Holy Spirit, just as your fathers did.

52Gegearaha na ata papaleawa dapa pahidduna na ama peangumu? Jaka hamatiya ngala na tou nama patoma moulunya nimi amminya hi Kristus, manga napa juharrumi jaka napa hamatimi.Which of the prophets did your fathers fail to persecute? They even killed those who foretold the coming of the Righteous One. And now you are His betrayers and murderers—

53Langa peminyaka na nuku Taurat, napa langa patoma na ngala malaikat, jidingu dami waimanya!you who received the law ordained by angels, yet have not kept it.”

54Ada ranguka agannanya nama jaji, jiaya napa wajal ati dengaja jaka hida pakigitungu ngidu.On hearing this, the members of the Sanhedrin were enraged, and they gnashed their teeth at him.

55Jidinguka, ya hi Yohanes nama binnu hangahu harri natangara ta awang mangu na ittaya na biaha madina hi Allah jaka hi Yesus nama dedi takaraha lawana na hi Allah.But Stephen, full of the Holy Spirit, looked intently into heaven and saw the glory of God and Jesus standing at the right hand of God.

56Hi Stepanus winna, "Ranguya! Ku itta ya na awang ana taweha jaka na ana tou rara ana dedi takaraha lawanana hi Allah."“Look,” he said, “I see heaven open and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God.”

57Tikkina kawula-wulang danya waingu kadoaka manga da toaniha dakahiluda, abi marangu awida jaka hida roatinya ada apa'ya hi Stepanus.At this they covered their ears, cried out in a loud voice, and rushed together at him.

58Manga da douraya tahabali hidi hida kabeanaya watu. Wali noungu duda dama itta mataya da deki ya na koapina ada tauya ta wihina na buamoni nama ngarang Saulus.They dragged him out of the city and began to stone him. Meanwhile the witnesses laid their garments at the feet of a young man named Saul.

59Enga taguna ada kabeanaya hi Stepanus ana kamaikanya ta habayang wina "Moiri Yesus, mu kaganya na ngahugu."While they were stoning him, Stephen appealed, “Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.”

60Tomaka, ana ngodu karada kawulang nanya waing kadoaka, "Moiri, abi padeitu kaja jala lahi duda!" Jaka ana mengaka papanewi matinanya.Falling on his knees, he cried out in a loud voice, “Lord, do not hold this sin against them.” And when he had said this, he fell asleep.
