< Machitidwe a Atumwi 6 >
1 Mʼmasiku amenewo pamene chiwerengero cha ophunzira chinkachuluka, Ayuda a Chihelene pakati pawo anadandaula chifukwa cha Ayuda a Chihebri chifukwa amasiye awo samawagawira chakudya cha tsiku ndi tsiku.
Bara sana keessa yommuu baayʼinni barattootaa dabalamaa deemetti Yihuudoonni Giriikota keessa jiraatan Ibrootatti guunguman; haadhonni hiyyeessaa Yihuudootaa nyaata guyyaa guyyaan hiramu keessatti hacuucamanii turaniitii.
2 Tsono Atumwi khumi ndi awiriwo anasonkhanitsa ophunzira onse pamodzi ndipo anati, “Nʼkosayenera kuti ife tisiye kulalikira Mawu a Mulungu ndi kuyangʼanira za chakudya.
Kanaaf ergamoonni kudha lamaan barattoota hunda walitti qabanii akkana jedhaniin; “Maaddii tajaajiluuf jennee dubbii Waaqaa barsiisuu dhiisuun nuuf qajeelaa miti.
3 Choncho abale, sankhani pakati panu anthu asanu ndi awiri a mbiri yabwino, odzazidwa ndi Mzimu Woyera ndi anzeru. Ife tidzawapatsa udindo oyangʼanira.
Kanaaf yaa obboloota isin namoota maqaa gaarii qaban kanneen Hafuura Qulqulluu fi ogummaan guutaman torba gidduu keessanii filadhaa. Nus itti gaafatama kana isaanitti kenninee,
4 Koma ife tidzadzipereka kuti tizipemphera ndi kulalikira mawu.”
Waaqa kadhachuu fi dubbii isaa barsiisuutti jabaannaa.”
5 Mawu amenewa anakondweretsa gulu lonse la anthu. Iwo anasankha, Stefano, munthu wodzazidwa ndi chikhulupiriro ndiponso Mzimu Woyera; anasankhanso Filipo, Prokoro, Nikanora, Timo, Parmena ndi Nikolao amene anatembenuka mtima ndi kulowa Chiyuda kuchokera kwa Antiokeya.
Wanni isaan jedhanis tuuta sana hunda gammachiise. Isaanis Isxifaanos namicha amantii fi Hafuura Qulqulluudhaan guutame tokko, akkasumas Fiiliphoosii fi Phirookoroosin, Niiqaaroonaa fi Xiimoonaa, Pharmeenaa fi Niqoolaas namicha Anxookiiyaa isa amantii Yihuudootaatti gale sana filatan.
6 Iwo anapereka anthuwa kwa atumwi amene anawapempherera ndi kuwasanjika manja.
Isaanis jara kana fuula ergamootaa dura dhaaban; ergamoonnis Waaqa kadhataniifii harka isaan irra kaaʼan.
7 Ndipo Mawu a Mulungu anapitirira kufalikira. Chiwerengero cha ophunzira mu Yerusalemu chinakula mofulumira ndipo ansembe ochuluka anakhulupirira.
Dubbiin Waaqaa ni babalʼate; baayʼinni barattootaas Yerusaalem keessatti akka malee dabalame; luboonni hedduun amantii kanaaf ajajaman.
8 Stefano, munthu wodzazidwa ndi chisomo cha Mulungu ndi mphamvu anachita zodabwitsa ndiponso zizindikiro zazikulu pakati pa anthu.
Isxifaanos ayyaanaa fi humna Waaqaatiin guutamee dinqii fi mallattoo gurguddaa namoota gidduutti hojjette.
9 Panauka mtsutso kuchokera kwa anthu a ku Kurene ndi a ku Alekisandriya komanso a ku dera la Silisiya ndi Asiya, otchedwa a Sunagoge ya Mfulu. Anthu amenewa anayamba kutsutsana ndi Stefano.
Miseensonni mana sagadaa warra, “Namoota bilisooman” jedhamanii, jechuunis Yihuudoonni Qareenaa fi Iskindiriyaadhaa dhufan akkasumas Yihuudoonni Kiilqiyaa fi Asiyaadhaa dhufan tokko tokko Isxifaanosiin mormuu jalqaban.
10 Koma iwo sanathe kumugonjetsa chifukwa iye ankayankhula ndi nzeru zimene Mzimu Woyera anamupatsa.
Isaan garuu ogummaa isaa yookaan Hafuura Qulqulluu inni ittiin dubbatu sanaan mormuu hin dandeenye.
11 Iwo ananyengerera anthu ena mwamseri kuti anene kuti, “Ife tinamva Stefano akuchitira chipongwe Mose ndiponso Mulungu.”
Kanaafuu akka isaan, “Nu utuu Isxifaanos Musee fi Waaqa irratti dubbii arrabsoo dubbatuu dhageenyeerra” jedhaniif dhoksaan namoota tokko tokko sossobatan.
12 Motero anawutsa mitima ya anthu, akulu ndi aphunzitsi amalamulo. Anamugwira Stefano ndi kumubweretsa ku Bwalo Lalikulu.
Isaanis uummata, maanguddootaa fi barsiistota seeraa kakaasan. Isxifaanosiinis qabanii fuula waldaa Yihuudootaa duratti isa dhiʼeessan.
13 Iwo anabweretsa mboni zonama zimene zinati, “Munthu uyu akupitirirabe kuyankhula mawu onyoza malo oyera ndi malamulo.
Dhuga baatota sobduus qopheeffatan; isaanis akkana jedhan; “Namichi kun iddoo qulqulluu kanaa fi seeraan mormuu takkumaa hin dhiifne.
14 Pakuti tinamumva akunena kuti Yesu uja wa ku Nazareti adzawononga malo ano ndiponso kusintha miyambo imene Mose anatipatsa.”
Nu isaa, ‘Yesuus namni Naazreeti kun iddoo kana ni diiga; seera Museen nuu kennes ni geeddara’ jedhu dhageenyeerra.”
15 Onse amene anakhala pansi Mʼbwalo Lalikulu anamuyangʼanitsitsa Stefano, ndipo anaona kuti nkhope yake ikuwala ngati ya mngelo.
Warri waldaa sana keessa turan hundi ija babaasanii Isxifaanosin ilaalanii akka fuuli isaa akkuma fuula ergamaa Waaqaa taʼe argan.
