< Acts 6 >

1 At this time, when the number of believers was increasing rapidly, the Greek-speaking believers started arguing with the Aramaic-speaking believers. They complained that their widows were being discriminated against in the daily distribution of food.
Fa: no, asili, Yesu Ea fa: no bobogesu fi ilia idi da heda: beba: le, Galigi sia: dawa: su Yu dunu amola Yu sia: dawa: su dunu, sia: ga gegei. Galigi sia: dawa: su Yu dunu ilia didalo uda da labe muni eso huluane hame ba: su, ilia da sia: su.
2 The twelve apostles called all the believers together, and told them, “It's not appropriate for us to give up spreading the word of God so we can wait at tables.
Amaiba: le, asunasi dunu fagoyale da Yesu Ea fa: no bobogesu fi huluane gilisima: ne sia: beba: le, ilia gilisi. Ilia da ilima amane sia: i, “Ninia da eso huluane muni hou ouligima: ne, Gode Ea Sia: olelesu hou yolesimu da defea hame galebe.
3 Brothers, choose from among you seven trustworthy men full of the Spirit and wisdom. We will hand this responsibility over to them.
Amaiba: le, ninia fi dunu! Dilia dunu fesuale gala, - bagade dawa: su dunu, Gode Ea A: silibu Hadigidafa Gala amoga ilia dogo nabai dunu, amo dunu ilegema. Ilia muni amola eno osobo bagade hou ouligima: ne sia: ma!
4 We ourselves will give our full attention to prayer and the ministry of spreading the word.”
Amasea, ninia da amo hou yolesili, Godema sia: ne gadosu amola Gode Ea sia: olelesu hou, amo fawane hamomu.”
5 Everybody was happy with the arrangement, and they chose Stephen, (a man full of trust in God and of the Holy Spirit), Philip, Prochorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, and Nicolaus (originally a Jewish convert from Antioch).
Amo sia: nababeba: le, dunu huluane da hahawane ba: i. Amaiba: le, ilia dunu fesuale gala ilegei. Amo da Sidibene - (e da dafawaneyale dawa: su hou bagade lalegagui amola ema Gode Ea A: silibu Hadigidafa da hinawane esalu), Filibe, Balogoulase, Naiga: ino, Daimone, Bamina: se, Nigoula: iase. Nigoula: iase da Dienadaile dunu musa: A:dioge moilai bai bagadega esalu. E da sinidigili, Yu fi ganodini misi.
6 These men were presented to the apostles who prayed for them and placed their hands on them in blessing.
Amo dunu da gilisili, asunasi dunu ilima doaga: i. Asunasi dunu da ilia lobo ilia dialuma da: iya ligisili, ilia hou fidima: ne Godema sia: ne gadoi.
7 The word of God continued to spread, and the number of disciples in Jerusalem greatly increased, with a large number of priests committing themselves to trusting in Jesus.
Amalalu Gode Ea Sia: da hehenai. Yesu Ea fa: no bobogesu fi Yelusaleme moilai bai bagade amo ganodini bagade heda: lalu. Amola gobele salasu dunu bagohame da Yesu Ea hou lalegagui.
8 Stephen, full of grace and God's power, performed wonderful miracles among the people.
Gode da Sidibenema hahawane bagade. Sidibene da gasa bagade ba: i amola gasa bagade musa: hame ba: su dawa: digima: ne olelesu dunu huluane ba: ma: ne hamoi.
9 But some started arguing with him. They were from the synagogue called “the Free,” as well as Cyrenians, Alexandrians, and people from Cilicia and Asia Minor.
Be ema ha lai dunu wa: legadoi. Amo dunu da Yu fi ganodini esalu, ilia fi da Halegai (musa: udigili hawa: hamosu dunu esalu wali halegai). Ilia musa: moilai bai bagade da Sailini amola A: legasa: dalia. Eno Yu dunu, Silisia amola A: isia fi dunu da ilima gilisili, ilia Sidibenema sia: ga gegei.
10 But they weren't able to stand against Stephen's wisdom or the Spirit with which he was speaking.
Be Gode Ea A: silibu Hadigidafa Gala da Sidibenema bagade dawa: su hou baligili iabeba: le, ilia Sidibene ea sia: hedofamu gogolei galu.
11 So they bribed some men to say, “We heard this man blaspheme Moses, and God too!”
Amaiba: le, ilia da ogogosu dunuma muni i dagoi. Amo dunu ilia ogogole amane sia: i, “Ninia nabi da Sidibene da Mousese ea hou wadela: musa: amola Gode Ea hou wadela: musa: , lasogole sia: nana.”
12 They stirred up the people, and together with the elders and the teachers of the law, they came and arrested him. They brought him before the council,
Dunu huluane, asigilai amola Sema olelesu dunu, amo sia: nababeba: le, ougi bagade ba: i. Ilia Sidibene afugili hiougili, Gasolo dunu ilima fofada: musa: hiouginana asi.
13 and called false witnesses who testified against him. “This man is always slandering the holy Temple and the law,” they said.
Amalalu, ilia da ogogosu dunu, Sidibenema ogogole fofada: ma: ne, oule misi. Ilia amane sia: i, “Eso huluane amo dunu da ninia hadigi Debolo Diasu amola Mousese ea Sema, amo wadela: musa: lasogole sia: sa.
14 “We've heard him say that this Jesus of Nazareth will destroy the Temple, and will change the laws we received from Moses.”
Na: salede dunu Yesu da Debolo Diasu mugululi amola hou huluane Mousese da ninima olelei liligi e da huluane afadenemu, amane sia: be ninia nabi.”
15 Everyone sitting on the council looked closely at Stephen, and his face shone like the face of an angel.
Gasolo dunu huluane ilia Sidibene ea odagi ha: giwane ba: i. Ba: beba: le, ea odagi da hadigi a: igele dunu ea odagi defele ba: i.
