Acts 6
1 But in those days, the disciples multiplying in number, there arose a murmuring of the Hellenists against the Hebrews because their widows were overlooked in the daily ministration.
Mbe oli munsiku ejo, ao obhukumi bhwa bheigisibhwa bhwaliga nibhukanya, lilalamiko lya bhayaudi bhe chiyunani nilingira mubhaebrania, kunjuno abhasigwa bhebhwe bhaliga mbabharabhirwa mumugabho gwe bhiryo bhya bhuli lusiku.
2 And the twelve, having called the multitude of the disciples to [them], said, It is not right that we, leaving the word of God, should serve tables.
Jintumwa ekumi ne bhili bhabhilikiye likofyanya lyona lya bheigisibhwa mbaika ati, “Itali kisi okusiga omusango gwa Nyamuanga no kufurubhenda kumeja.
3 Look out therefore, brethren, from among yourselves seven men, well reported of, full of [the] [Holy] Spirit and wisdom, whom we will establish over this business:
Mbe oli, bhasu, musole, abharume musanju, okusoka agati yemwe, abhanu bhekisi, abho bhejuye Omwoyo no bhwengeso, abho echitura okuyana obhufurubhendi bhunu.
4 but we will give ourselves up to prayer and the ministry of the word.
Eswona, echigenderera mwisabhwa no musango gwa Nyamuanga.”
5 And the saying pleased the whole multitude: and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and [the] Holy Spirit, and Philip, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicolas, a proselyte of Antioch,
Inyaika yebhwe nikonderesha likofyanya ryona. Kurwejo, mbamusola Stefano, omunu oyo ejuye elikirisha no Mwoyo Omweru, na Filipo, Prokoro, Nikanori, Timoni, Parmena, na Nikolao, omuchuguki okusoka Antiokia.
6 whom they set before the apostles; and, having prayed, they laid their hands on them.
Abhekirisha mbabhaleta abhanu bhanu imbele ya jintumwa, mbasabhwa na mbamara mbabhatelako amabhoko gebhwe.
7 And the word of God increased; and the number of the disciples in Jerusalem was very greatly multiplied, and a great crowd of the priests obeyed the faith.
Kurwejo, omusango gwa Nyamuanga gwasuganile; no bhukumi bhwa bheigisibhwa mbukanya okwiyongesha eyo Yerusalemu; no bhukumi bhwanfu bhwa bhabhambasi mbalamila elikirisha.
8 And Stephen, full of grace and power, wrought wonders and great signs among the people.
Na Stefano, oyo ejuye echigongo na managa, aliga nakora ebhiruguro ne bhibharikisho bhyanfu mubhumwi bhwa bhanu.
9 And there arose up certain of those of the synagogue called of freedmen, and of Cyrenians, and of Alexandrians, and of those of Cilicia and Asia, disputing with Stephen.
Mbe nawe ao mbemuka abhanu abhandi bhali bhayemba bha lisinagogi ndibhilikirwa lisinagogi rya Mahuru, ne rya Bhakirene ne rya Bhaeskanderia, na bhandi okusoka Kilikia na Asia. Abhanu bhanu bhaliga mbabhushanya na Stefano.
10 And they were not able to resist the wisdom and the Spirit with which he spoke.
Mbe nawe, bhatatulire okubhambashanya no bhwengeso no Mwoyo ogwo Stefano aliga nakorera okuroma.
11 Then they suborned men, saying, We have heard him speaking blasphemous words against Moses and God.
Mbamara mbakongya abhanu okuroma imbisike ati, “Chamongwa Stefano naroma emisango jo kugaya obhukumi bhwa Musa no bhwa Nyamuanga.”
12 And they roused the people, and the elders, and the scribes. And coming upon [him] they seized him and brought [him] to the council.
Mbabhayatika abhanu, abhakaruka, na bhandiki, no kumulubha Stefano, mbamugwata, no kumusila imbele ya libharaja.
13 And they set false witnesses, saying, This man does not cease speaking words against the holy place and the law;
Mbaleta abhabhambasi bho rulimi, abho bhaikire, “omunu unu atakusiga kwaika emisango emibhibhi jitasikene ne chalo chinu echeru ne bhiragiro.
14 for we have heard him saying, This Jesus the Nazaraean shall destroy this place, and change the customs which Moses taught us.
Kwo kubha chamunguwe naika ati Yesu unu wa Nazareti kanyamula orukiji lunu no kuyindura ebhwitonde bhinu chayanilwe na Musa.”
15 And all who sat in the council, looking fixedly on him, saw his face as [the] face of an angel.
Bhuli umwi oyo aliga ali mwibharaja, nalosha ameso gaye okumurorera Stefano, mbabhurora obhusu bhwaye bhuli nko bhwa malaika.
