Acts 7
1 And the high priest said, Are these things then so?
Nyibu butvyachok ngv Stipinnyi tvvkato, “So si jvjv ngvri?”
2 And he said, Brethren and fathers, hearken. The God of glory appeared to our father Abraham when he was in Mesopotamia, before he dwelt in Charran,
Stipin mirwksito, “Achiboru vdw okv Abu vdw, ngoogv minama tvvriato! Kvvlo ngonugv abuapa Abraham Haran lo vngtv madvbv Mesopotamia doyilo kairungnv Pwknvyarnv ninyia kaatam suto
3 and said to him, Go out of thy land and out of thy kindred, and come into the land which I will shew thee.
okv ninyia minto, ‘Noogv mooku isi okv vpinvriap vngyuto okv vnglinto ho mookulo nam ngo kaatamre.’
4 Then going out of the land of the Chaldeans he dwelt in Charran, and thence, after his father died, he removed him into this land in which ye now dwell.
Okv hv vbvrikunamv ninyigv diringmooku isi nga vngyu toku okv Haran lo vngla dootoku. Abraham gv abu siro kochingbv, Pwknvyarnv ninyia so mooku so doodubv mvto vjak ogolo hv doopvdw.
5 And he did not give him an inheritance in it, not even what his foot could stand on; and promised to give it to him for a possession, and to his seed after him, when he had no child.
Vbvrikunamv Pwknvyarnv Abrahamnyi mooku achukguka ninyigvbv jimato, lvchu kurpv kogodaka jimato, vbvritola Pwknvyarnv milvto ninyia sum jidubv vla, okv vv ninyigvbv ridukubv okv ninyigv singsit gvbv ridukubv. Alu dwlo Pwknvyarnv soogv milv nam sum milin jitoku, ho Abraham gv umvuu kaamarilo.
6 And God spoke thus: His seed shall be a sojourner in a strange land, and they shall enslave them and evil entreat [them] four hundred years;
Ninyia Pwknvyarnv svbv minto: ‘Noogv singsit vdwv nyebunyi diringmooku isi lo doore, hoka bunua nyira gubv okv anying nyingpi go hingching dubv mvrikla doogvre.
7 and the nation to which they shall be in bondage will I judge, said God; and after these things they shall come forth and serve me in this place.
Vbvritola ngo nyi vdwgvlo vngbo jwngkadaka namgo doore ho bunu vdwv pakbu jvbv ririku, Okv Hokochingbv noogv singsit vdwv bunu vnglin riku ho diringmooku lokv okv nga kumriku so gwngda arwnglo.’
8 And he gave to him [the] covenant of circumcision; and thus he begat Isaac and circumcised him the eighth day; and Isaac Jacob, and Jacob the twelve patriarchs.

9 And the patriarchs, envying Joseph, sold him away into Egypt. And God was with him,
“Jakop gv kuunyilo vdwv bunugv boru Josepnyi kaanwng mabv rito okv ninyia pakbu bv Ijipt lo pioklwkto. Vbvrijvka Pwknvyarnv ninyi gvlo lvkobv dooto
10 and delivered him out of all his tribulations, and gave him favour and wisdom in the sight of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he appointed him chief over Egypt and all his house.

11 But a famine came upon all the land of Egypt and Canaan, and great distress, and our fathers found no food.

12 But Jacob, having heard of there being corn in Egypt, sent out our fathers first;

13 and the second time Joseph was made known to his brethren, and the family of Joseph became known to Pharaoh.
Lvnyinvbv vngkurkunam lo Josepnyi atubongv achiboru vdwa kaachin kodu bv ritoku, okv Ijipt gv dvbv ngv Josep gv vpinvriap am chinya toku.
14 And Joseph sent and called down to him his father Jacob and all [his] kindred, seventy-five souls.
Vbvrikunamv Josep atugv abu Jakopnyi yunying go, ninyia milwkto okv vpinvriap mvnwng nga, nyi chamkanw gola angu mvnwng aka, Ijipt lo aadubv.
15 And Jacob went down into Egypt and died, he and our fathers,

16 and were carried over to Sychem and placed in the sepulchre which Abraham bought for a sum of money of the sons of Emmor the [father] of Sychem.
Ho bunugv svma nga Sikem lo baktoku, bunugv nyibung rikua Abraham Hamor haalung gvlo morko jitola rvtoku.
17 But as the time of promise drew near which God had promised to Abraham, the people increased and multiplied in Egypt,
“Vdwlo Pwknvyarnv Abrahamnyi milv namv dw vv aanwk tokudw, Ijipt lo ngonugv nyi ngv twngtv yaya toku.
18 until another king over Egypt arose who did not know Joseph.
Anyungnga Josep gv lvkwng lo chima nvgonv dvbv ako Ijipt lo rigvla riraptoku.
19 He dealt subtilly with our race, and evil entreated the fathers, casting out their infants that they might not live.
Hv ngonugv abuapa nga gwngkupto okv bunua aiamar mato, bunugv kuu anga vdwa bunua naam lokv agumlo charlila dubv mvto, vkvlvgavbolo simu dubv vla
20 In which time Moses was born, and was exceedingly lovely, who was nourished three months in the house of his father.
Ho dwlo Mosesnyi bvngto, anga angv achialvbv kaaputo. Ninyia naam lo poolu pwkgumgo ringchum la rito,
21 And when he was cast out, the daughter of Pharaoh took him up, and brought him up for herself [to be] for a son.

22 And Moses was instructed in all [the] wisdom of the Egyptians, and he was mighty in his words and deeds.
Ninyi Ijipt nyi vdwgv mvngkimvnglak mvnwng nga tamsar toku okv kokwng loku gaamlo milaknv chinvpanv kainv nyi gubv ritoku.
23 And when a period of forty years was fulfilled to him, it came into his heart to look upon his brethren, the sons of Israel;
“Vdwlo Moses anying champi tokudw, hv mvngchinla ritoku ninyigv Israel ajin vdwgv vdwgo hirukaya mvnwng nga hinla ridu kudw.
24 and seeing a certain one wronged, he defended [him], and avenged him that was being oppressed, smiting the Egyptian.
Bunugv lokv akonyi Ijipt nyi akonv richingriying ridubv hv kaapa toku, vkvlvgabv ninyia ringbv hv vngtoku okv mvrwk sula ninyia mvki toku.
25 For he thought that his brethren would understand that God by his hand was giving them deliverance. But they understood not.
(Hv mvngnamv ninyigv atugv nyi vdwv mvngchin pvkunvpv Pwknvyarnv ninyia bunua linggv dukubv ritv dunv vla, vbvrilachin bunu vdwv oguka mvngchin mato)
26 And on the morrow he shewed himself to them as they were contending, and compelled them to peace, saying, Ye are brethren, why do ye wrong one another?
Lvnyinvbv logo nvnga vngyilo hv Israel nyi anyigo mvmi sudubv kaapato, okv hv anyi gv pingkolo alv minsu modubv gwngkw rikwto. Hv minto, ‘nyi vdwa, tvriato,’ ‘bunyi anyino Israel anying vlaka; ogubv nonuno sibv padarminsu dunv?’
27 But he that was wronging his neighbour thrust him away, saying, Who established thee ruler and judge over us?
Vbvritola richingriying yanv akonv Mosesnyi nvnglin toku. Hv mintoku, ‘Ngonyi gv pingkolo nam miriavngria dubv mvnv ngv yvvla?’
28 Dost thou wish to kill me as thou killedst the Egyptian yesterday?
‘No meru hogv Ijipt nyi akonyi mvki nam aingbv, no ngaaka mvkiso mvngpv ai?’
29 And Moses fled at this saying, and became a sojourner in the land of Madiam, where he begat two sons.
Vdwlo sum Moses tvvpa namgola, hv Ijipt mooku gvngv kilin toku okv Midian mooku lo vngla dootoku. Hoka ninyi kuunyilo anyigo dootoku.
30 And when forty years were fulfilled, an angel appeared to him in the wilderness of mount Sinai, in a flame of fire of a bush.
“Anying champi go vngro koching nga, nyidogindung akonv chokri mooku gv mootum yamchum golo vmvbv gulinla Sinai moodw gv nvchilo Mosesnyi kaarwksuto.
31 And Moses seeing it wondered at the vision; and as he went up to consider it, there was a voice of [the] Lord,
Moses kaato kula hv lamngakpatoku, okv mootum gv yamchum nvchilo aatoku kaabwk dubv vla. Vbvritola Ahtu gv gaama hv tvvpa toku:”
32 I am the God of thy fathers, the God of Abraham, and of Isaac, and of Jacob. And Moses trembled, and durst not consider [it].
‘Ngo nonugv abuapa vdwgv Pwknvyarnv ngv, Abraham, Isaak, okv Jakop gv Pwknvyarnv ngv.’ Moses busula jinjin rumrumto okv kaadw chinchi nyumato.
33 And the Lord said to him, Loose the sandal of thy feet, for the place on which thou standest is holy ground.
Ahtu ninyia minto, ‘Noogv lvkiama pilin pvtoka, no ogolo dakpvdw ho kwdwv darwk nvngv.
34 I have surely seen the ill treatment of my people which is in Egypt, and I have heard their groan, and have come down to take them out of it; and now, come, I will send thee to Egypt.
Ngoogv nyi vdwa Ijipt lo alvmabv hirukaya hindubv kaato. Ngo bunugv svgok goknama tvvpvnv, okv ngo bunua ringlin tvvbv ipvnv. Vjak aato; ngo nam Ijipt lo vngmure.’
35 This Moses, whom they refused, saying, Who made thee ruler and judge? him did God send [to be] a ruler and deliverer with the hand of the angel who appeared to him in the bush.
“Moses Israel nyi vdwgv toakunam akonv. Bunu tvvkato, ‘nam yvvla ngonua kaariataria nvgobv okv mvpvnv?’ Pwknvyarnv ho ninyia nyi vdwa kaariatarianv akobv okv bunua ringlin dubv vngmuto nyidogindung ninyia mootum yamchum lo vmvbv gula kaarwk sunv gv ridur lokv.
36 He led them out, having wrought wonders and signs in the land of Egypt, and in the Red sea, and in the wilderness forty years.
Hv nyi vdwa Ijipt loka vnglin gvvtoku, kaasartabo okv Ijipt lo lamripanam kaatamto okv Lwngchingnv svmasa lo okv anying champi go chokrimookulo rikwngto.
37 This is the Moses who said to the sons of Israel, A prophet shall God raise up to you out of your brethren like me [him shall ye hear].
Moses akinmwng Israel gv nyi mvnwng nga minv ngv, ‘Pwknvyarnv nyijwk ako jilwkre, ninyia vjak nga jilwknam aingbv, okv vv nonugv atugv nyi ako bv rire.’
38 This is he who was in the assembly in the wilderness, with the angel who spoke to him in the mount Sinai, and with our fathers; who received living oracles to give to us;
Hv laka Israel nyi vdwa lvkobv chukri mookulo dokumla rigvdonv; hv hoka ngonugv abuapa gv lvkobvka okv ninyia lvkobv nyidogindung Sinai moodwlo ninyia japnv, okv hv Pwknvyarnv gv singdung doina naarwkla ngonu gvlo jilwkto.
39 to whom our fathers would not be subject, but thrust [him] from them, and in their hearts turned back to Egypt,
“Vbvritola ngonugv abuapa vdwv ninyia tvvjimakv vtoku; bunu ninyia nvnglin pvto okv Ijipt bv vngkur dukubv bunu mvnggya toku.
40 saying to Aaron, Make us gods who shall go before us; for this Moses, who brought us out of the land of Egypt, we know not what has happened to him.
Vkvlvgabv bunu Aaronnyi minto, ‘Ngonua rigvnv pwknvyarnv gonv vtwng go ngonua mvji yapi. Ngonu chinkuma ho nyi Mosesnyi ogubv ripv kunvdw ngonua Ijipt lokv lingvkunv ngv.’
41 And they made a calf in those days, and offered sacrifice to the idol, and rejoiced in the works of their own hands.
Vbvrikunamv bunu vbv rinya toku morti go svv nga mvring namgo mvtola, um erinpeelwkla rito, okv bunugv vbv ogugo mvpvdw ho mvkunam lvgabv hartv minsu laku dvpam goka pamnya toku.
42 But God turned and delivered them up to serve the host of heaven; as it is written in [the] book of the prophets, Have ye offered me victims and sacrifices forty years in the wilderness, O house of Israel?
Vkvlvgabv Pwknvyarnv bunua dakkur toku okv bunua nyidomooku gv takar vdwa kumdujoodu bv jitoku, so sum nyijwk vdwgv kitap lo lvkpvto: ‘Israel gv nyi vdwa! ho vv ngo gvbvma nonugv chukrimooku lo anying champi go rila svnwngsvmin am pakila okv erinpeeji namv.
43 Yea, ye took up the tent of Moloch, and the star of [your] god Remphan, the forms which ye made to do homage to them; and I will transport you beyond Babylon.
Ho gv vv Pwknvyarnv Molvk gv tombuv ho nonuno bakkar karnamv, okv Repan gv potuv, nonugv takar Pwknvyarnv ngv; vv bunu morti ngv nonugv kumdubv mvnam vdwv. Okv vkvlvgabv nonua ngo Bebilon nga vngbola vngram more.’
44 Our fathers had the tent of the testimony in the wilderness, as he that spoke to Moses commanded to make it according to the model which he had seen;
“Ngonugv abuapa vdwv Pwknvyarnv gv doomwng gvvnam tombuv chukrimooku lo bunua lvkobv dooming gvvto, vv Pwknvyarnv gv Mosesnyi mvtokv vla mingku lokv mvto, vbv mvtokv vla milam lo Moses kaatam jitoku.
45 which also our fathers, receiving from their predecessors, brought in with Joshua when they entered into possession of [the lands of] the nations, whom God drove out from [the] face of our fathers, until the days of David;
Kochingso, ngonugv abuapa vdwv bunugv abu vdwlokv tombua laatoku um bunu Josua gv lvkobv okv Pwknvyarnv gv kvvbi diringmooku vdwa charpak jiroku kvdw hoka aarilo bunu um bakbwngto. Okv ho tombu angv Dabid gv singri loka doodvto.
46 who found favour before God, and asked to find a tabernacle for the God of Jacob;

47 but Solomon built him a house.
Vbvritola Solomon yabv ninyigv lvgabv naam a mvtoku.
48 But the Most High dwells not in [places] made with hands; as says the prophet,
“Vbvritola Kai yachoknv Pwknvyarnv ngv nyia laak lokv mvnam naam lo dooma dvnv; Nyijwk gv minam jvbv,
49 The heaven [is] my throne and the earth the footstool of my feet: what house will ye build me? saith [the] Lord, or where [is the] place of my rest?
‘Ahtu mindu, nyidomooku ngv ngoogv dooging ngv, okv sichingmooku si ngoogv lvpa daging ngv. Oguaingnv naam go nonu ngoogv lvgabv mvtv tvvdunv? Ogolo ngoogv doolwk jikuv?
50 has not my hand made all these things?
Ngo atubongv so ogumvnwng nga mvvma pvnvre?’
51 O stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, ye do always resist the Holy Spirit; as your fathers, ye also.
“Vdwgo nonuno mvngkuk linyu madunv!” Stipin um mimbwng dvdvto. “Vdwgo nonugv haapokv chimadunv, vdwgo nonuno Pwknvyarnv gv doina rungji nyadunv! Nonuno nonugv abuapa vdwgv apia jvbv ridu; nonuka Darwknv Dowa naarwk mabv dvdvbv rikidu!
52 Which of the prophets have not your fathers persecuted? and they have slain those who announced beforehand concerning the coming of the Just One, of whom ye have now become deliverers up and murderers!

54 And hearing these things they were cut to the heart, and gnashed their teeth against him.
Kvba lo nyi vdwv Stipin gv minama tvvriala dooto, bunu achialv bv hidik nyato okv bunugv hijung ngv itikkvrwk nyala dokcha nyato.
55 But being full of [the] Holy Spirit, having fixed his eyes on heaven, he saw [the] glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God,
Vbvritola Stipin, Darwknv Dow akomaring tukula nyidomooku kaadungto okv Pwknvyarnv gv hartvkai nama kaapato okv Jisu Pwknvyarnv gv lakbik takbv dakto.
56 and said, Lo, I behold the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing at the right hand of God.
Hv minto, “Kaato!” “Ngo nyidomooku nga kukko dubv kaapado okv ho Nyi gv Kuunyilo ngv Pwknvyarnv gv lakbik tangv lo dakdo!”
57 And they cried out with a loud voice, and held their ears, and rushed upon him with one accord;

60 And kneeling down, he cried with a loud voice, Lord, lay not this sin to their charge. And having said this, he fell asleep.
