Masengo 6
1 Kanyuma, winji wa ŵakulijiganya pawaliji nkonjecheka, kwatyochele kunyinyita mwa ŵakukulupilila ŵaŵaŵechetaga Chigiliki ni aŵala ŵaŵaŵechetaga Chiebulania. Aŵala ŵaŵaŵechetaga Chigiliki ŵanyinyitaga kuti achakongwe ŵa Chigiliki ŵaŵawililwe ni achiŵankwawo, ŵaliŵalikwe kwagaŵila yakulya moŵa gose.
In those dayes as the nombre of the disciples grewe ther arose a grudge amonge the Grekes agaynst the Ebrues be cause their wyddowes were despysed in the dayly mynystracion.
2 Nipele, achinduna likumi ni ŵaŵili ŵala ŵauŵilasile mpingo wose wa ŵakulijiganya nikuti, “Ngaikuŵajilwa kuti tuleche kulalichila liloŵe lya Akunnungu kuti tuŵeje ŵagaŵanya yakulya.
Then the twelve called the multitude of the disciples to gether and sayde: it is not mete that we shuld leave the worde of God and serve at the tables.
3 Nipele achalongo achinjetu, mwasagule ŵandu nsano ni ŵaŵili ŵakumanyika kuti ali ni umboni ŵambone, ŵaagumbale Mbumu jwa Akunnungu ni lunda ni uweji chitwape masengo go.
Wherfore brethren loke ye out amoge you seven men of honest reporte and full of the holy goost and wysdome which we maye apoynte to this nedfull busynes.
4 Nambo uweji tutulimbichile nkupopela ni kulalichila Liloŵe lya Akunnungu.”
But we will geve oure selves cotinually to prayer and to the ministracion of ye worde.
5 Ngani jo jaanonyelesye mpingo wose wa ŵakukulupilila ŵala. Ni ŵaasagwile che Stefano jwagumbele chikulupi ni Mbumu jwa Akunnungu ni che Filipo ni che Plokolo ni che Nikanoli ni che Timona ni che Pamena ni che Nikolau jwa ku Antiokia juŵajinjile dini ja Chiyahudi.
And the sayinge pleased the whoale multitude. And they chose Steven a man full of fayth and of the holy goost and Philip and Prochorus and Nichanor and Timon and Permenas and Nicholas a converte of Antioche.
6 Ŵaajimiche mmbujo pa achinduna, nombewo ŵapopele ni kwasajichila makono gao.
Which they set before the Apostles and they prayed and layde their hondes on them.
7 Ni liloŵe lya Akunnungu lyapundile kwenela, ni ku Yelusalemu ko winji wa ŵakukulupilila wajonjesyeche nnope, ni mpingo wekulungwa wa ŵambopesi ŵaakulupilile Che Yesu.
And the worde of God encreased and the noubre of the disciples multiplied in Ierusalem greatly and a great company of the prestes were obedient to the faythe.
8 Akunnungu ŵapele che Stefano upile weujinji ni ukombole ni ŵapanganyaga imanyisyo ni yakusimonjeka yejinji pasikati ja ŵandu.
And Steven full of faythe and power dyd great wondres and myracles amoge ye people.
9 Nambo ŵakopochele ŵandu achisakaga kutenda makani ni che Stefano. Ŵampepe mwa ŵandu wo ŵaliji ŵa nyuumba jimo ja kupopelela jajikuŵilanjikwa, “Nyuumba ja kupopelela ŵandu Hulu,” ni ŵandu wo ŵatyochelaga ku Kulene ni ku Alekisandilia ni ŵane kutyochela ku Kilikia ni ku Asia.
Then ther arose certayne of the synagoge which are called Lybertines and Syrenites and of Alexandria and of Cilicia and Asia and disputed with Steven.
10 Nambo Mbumu jwa Akunnungu ŵampele che Stefano lunda, kwa yele nganakombolanga kumpunda paŵaŵechetaga.
And they coulde not resist the wysdome and the sprete with which he spake.
11 Nipele ŵaonjile ŵandu ŵampepe aŵechete kuti, “Twampilikene che Stefano achiŵechetaga maloŵe ga kwatukana che Musa ni Akunnungu.”
Then sent they in men which sayd: we have hearde him speake blasphemous wordes agaynst Moses and agaynst God.
12 Kwanti yeleyi, ŵaachisisye ŵandu ni achachekulu ni ŵakwiganya Malajisyo ga Akunnungu gaŵapele che Musa. Nipele, ŵankamwile che Stefano ni kunnyikanawo paujo pa Nkungulu wekulu.
And they moved ye people and the elders and the scribes: and came apon him and caught him and brought him to the counsell
13 Ni ŵajimiche ŵaumboni ŵa unami ŵaŵatite, “Mundu ju ngaakuleka ng'o kujichembulusya Nyuumba ja Akunnungu jajiswela ji ni kugachembulusya Malajisyo.
and brought forth falce witnesses which sayde. This ma ceasith not to speake blasphemous wordes agaynst this holy place and the lawe:
14 Pakuŵa twampilikene achiŵechetaga kuti jwele Che Yesu jwa ku Nasaleti chajijonanje Nyuumba ja Akunnungu ji ni kuchigalausya chisyoŵelo chiŵatupele che Musa.”
for we hearde him saye: this Iesus of Nazareth shall destroye this place and shall chaunge the ordinaunces which Moses gave vs.
15 Wose ŵaŵaliji pa Nkungulu ŵankolondolele che Stefano, ŵambweni ku meeso kwakwe kuli mpela ku meeso kwa katumetume jwa kwinani.
And all that sate in ye counsell loked stedfastly on him and sawe his face as it had bene the face of an angell.
