Acts 7
1 Then sayd the chiefe Priest, Are these things so?
Te dongah khosoihham loh, “Te tlam te om tang nim?” a ti nah.
2 And he sayd, Ye men, brethren and Fathers, hearken. That God of glory appeared vnto our father Abraham, while he was in Mesopotamia, before he dwelt in Charran,
Te vaengah Setephen loh, “Ka manuca rhoek neh a pa rhoek, ka hlang rhoek loh hnatun uh lah. Kharrhan kah a om hlan ah Mesopotamia ah a om vaengah ni thangpomnah Pathen loh a pa Abraham taengah a phoe pah coeng.
3 And said vnto him, Come out of thy countrey, and from thy kindred, and come into the land, which I shall shewe thee.
Te vaengah anih te, “Na khohmuen neh na cako taeng lamloh cet lamtah na paan ham khohmuen te tah nang kan tueng eh?,” a ti nah.
4 Then came he out of the land of the Chaldeans, and dwelt in Charran. And after that his father was dead, God brought him from thence into this land, wherein ye now dwell,
Te dongah Khalden khohmuen lamloh nong tih Kharrhan ah kho a sak. Te lamloh a napa a duek phoeiah he khohmuen la amah puen uh tih te ah nangmih loh kho na sak uh coeng.
5 And hee gaue him none inheritance in it, no, not the bredth of a foote: yet he promised that he would giue it to him for a possession, and to his seede after him, when as yet hee had no childe.
Te ah te rho a paek pawt dongah khotloeng pataeng khueh pawh. Te vaengah anih te camoe om hlan dae anih neh anih hnukah a tiingan taengah khohmuen te khoyo la paek ham ol a caeng.
6 But God spake thus, that his seede should be a soiourner in a strange land: and that they should keepe it in bondage, and entreate it euill foure hundreth yeeres.
Te dongah a tiingan loh hlanglang kho ah yinlai la a om ham khaw, amih te sal a bi sak uh vetih kum yali a phaep uh ham khaw Pathen loh a thui coeng.
7 But the nation to whome they shall be in bondage, will I iudge, sayth God: and after that, they shall come forth and serue me in this place.
Tedae Pathen loh, “Amih sal aka bi sak namtom te lai ka tloek ni. Te phoeiah cet uh vetih he hmuen ah kai m'bawk uh ni,” a ti.
8 Hee gaue him also the couenant of circumcision: and so Abraham begate Isaac, and circumcised him the eight day: and Isaac begate Iacob, and Iacob the twelue Patriarkes.
Te phoeiah anih te yahvinrhetnah ham paipi a paek. Te dongah ni Isaak a cun vaengah khaw a hnin rhet dongah a rhet pah. Te phoeiah Isaak loh Jakob, Jakob loh patuel hlainit te a rhet pah.
9 And the Patriarkes moued with enuie, solde Ioseph into Egypt: but God was with him,
Patuel rhoek tah Joseph taengah thatlai uh tih Egypt la a thuung uh. Tedae anih te Pathen loh a om puei.
10 And deliuered him out of all his afflictions, and gaue him fauour and wisdome in the sight of Pharao King of Egypt, who made him gouernour ouer Egypt, and ouer his whole house.
Te dongah ni a phacip phabaem soeprhaep khui lamloh anih a hlawt tih Egypt manghai Pharaoh hmaiah anih te lungvatnah neh cueihnah a paek. Te phoeiah Egypt neh a imkhui pum aka kholcui ham a tuek.
11 Then came there a famine ouer all the land of Egypt and Chanaan, and great affliction, that our fathers found no sustenance.
Tedae khokha neh phacip phabaem loh Egypt neh Kanaan pum te a pai thil khungdaeng vaengah, a pa rhoek tah cakthae khaw dang uh pawh.
12 But when Iacob heard that there was corne in Egypt, he sent our fathers first:
Egypt ah cang a om te Jakob loh a yaak vaengah lamhma la a pa rhoek te a tueih.
13 And at the second time, Ioseph was knowen of his brethren, and Iosephs kindred was made knowen vnto Pharao.
Tedae a pabae daengah Joseph loh a manuca rhoek taengah a phoe pah tih, Joseph kah namtu khaw Pharaoh taengah mingpha la coeng.
14 Then sent Ioseph and caused his father to be brought, and all his kindred, euen threescore and fifteene soules.
Te phoeiah Joseph loh a napa Jakob neh a cako hinglu sawmrhih panga te a tah tih boeih a khue.
15 So Iacob went downe into Egypt, and he dyed, and our fathers,
Jakob tah Egypt la suntla dae amah khaw a pa rhoek khaw duek.
16 And were remoued into Sychem, and were put in the sepulchre, that Abraham had bought for money of the sonnes of Emor, sonne of Sychem.
Te dongah Shekhem la a khuen uh tih, Shekhem kah Harmor koca rhoek taengah tangka phu neh Abraham loh a lai phuel ah a up uh.
17 But when the time of the promise drewe neere, which God had sworne to Abraham, the people grewe and multiplied in Egypt,
Pathen loh Abraham taengkah a phong tangtae olkhueh tue loh a yoei coeng bangla, pilnam loh Egypt ah rhoeng uh tih ping uh.
18 Till another King arose, which knewe not Ioseph.
Te vaengah Joseph aka ming mueh manghai pakhat te Egypt ah phoe.
19 The same dealt subtilly with our kindred, and euill entreated our fathers, and made them to cast out their yong children, that they should not remaine aliue.
Anih loh mamih namtu he a hoilae tih a pa rhoek a phaep. Cahni rhoek te hing boel saeh tila a saii tih a voeih sak.
20 The same time was Moses borne, and was acceptable vnto God, which was nourished vp in his fathers house three moneths.
Te vaeng tue ah Moses thaang tih Pathen taengah khaw sakthen la om. Anih te a napa im ah hla thum a cun.
21 And when he was cast out, Pharaohs daughter tooke him vp, and nourished him for her owne sonne.
Anih te a phap vaengah Pharaoh canu loh a rhuh tih a ca la a cun.
22 And Moses was learned in all the wisdome of the Egyptians, and was mightie in wordes and in deedes.
Te dongah Moses tah Egypt kah cueihnah cungkuem neh a toel tih a olka neh bitat dongah a yoeikoek la om.
23 Nowe when he was full fourtie yeere olde, it came into his heart to visite his brethren, the children of Israel.
Tedae kum sawmli a cup vaengah, a manuca, Israel ca rhoek te hip hamla a thinko ah a cuen pah.
24 And whe he saw one of them suffer wrong, he defended him, and auenged his quarell that had the harme done to him, and smote the Egyptian.
Te vaengah hlang pakhat a hnueih te a hmuh tih a rhun. Te dongah a vueinan te kutthungnah a saii pah tih Egypt te a boh.
25 For hee supposed his brethren would haue vnderstand, that God by his hande should giue them deliuerance: but they vnderstoode it not.
Pathen loh amih ham khangnah te anih kut dongah a paek te a manuca rhoek loh a hmuhming tila a poek dae a hmuhkming uh pawh.
26 And the next day, he shewed himselfe vnto them as they stroue, and woulde haue set them at one againe, saying, Syrs, ye are brethren: why doe ye wrong one to another?
Tedae a vuen khohnin ah amamih a hnueih uh thae te a hmuh. Te dongah, “Ka hlang rhoek, manuca la na om uh ta, balae khat neh khat thae na saii uh,” a ti nah tih rhoepnah ham amih te a sim.
27 But he that did his neighbour wrong, thrust him away, saying, Who made thee a prince, and a iudge ouer vs?
Tedae imben a hnueih loh a tueihno tih, “Kaimih soah boei neh laitloek la nang u long n'tuek.
28 Wilt thou kill mee, as thou diddest the Egyptian yesterday?
Hlaem kah Egypt na ngawn vaengkah a longim bangla kai he ngawn ham na ngaih pawt nim?” a ti nah.
29 Then fled Moses at that saying, and was a stranger in the land of Madian, where he begate two sonnes.
Tekah ol dongah Moses khaw rhaelrham tih Midian kho ah yinlai la poeh. Te ah te capa panit a sak.
30 And when fourtie yeres were expired, there appeared to him in the wildernes of mout Sina, an Angel of the Lord in a flame of fire, in a bush.
Kum sawmli a cup vaengah puencawn te Sinai tlang kah khosoek ah anih ham tangpuem hmai hmaitak khuiah a phoe pah.
31 And when Moses sawe it, hee wondred at the sight: and as he drew neere to consider it, the voyce of the Lord came vnto him, saying,
A mangthui te a hmuh vaengah Moses loh a ngaihmang. Te dongah hmat hamla a paan hatah,
32 I am the God of thy fathers, the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Iacob. Then Moses trembled, and durst not behold it.
Kai tah na pa rhoek kah Pathen, Abraham, Isaak, Jakob kah Pathen ni,” tila Boeipa ol thoeng. Te dongah Moses tah a thuen neh om tih a hmat ham ngaingaih pawh.
33 Then the Lord said to him, Put off thy shoes from thy feete: for the place where thou standest, is holy ground.
Tedae anih te Boeipa loh, “Na kho dongkah khokhom te duul laeh. Na pai nah hmuen he diklai cim ni.
34 I haue seene, I haue seene the affliction of my people, which is in Egypt, and I haue heard their groning, and am come downe to deliuer them: and nowe come, and I will sende thee into Egypt.
Egypt ah ka pilnam kah thakkhoeihnah te ka sawt ka sawt tih a hueinah te ka yaak coeng. Amih hlawt ham ka rhum coeng dongah halo laeh Egypt la nang kan tueih pawn eh,” a ti nah.
35 This Moses whome they forsooke, saying, Who made thee a prince and a iudge? the same God sent for a prince, and a deliuerer by the hand of the Angel, which appeared to him in the bush.
Moses te, 'Boei neh laitloek la nang u long n'tuek,’ a ti uh tih hnawt uh cakhaw, tangpuem khuiah anih taengla aka phoe puencawn kut dongah anih te boei neh tlankung la Pathen loh a tueih.
36 Hee brought them out, doing wonders, and miracles in the land of Egypt, and in the red sea, and in the wildernes fourtie yeeres.
Anih loh amih te a mawt vaengah khobae rhambae neh miknoek te Egypt kho neh Tuipuei Sen ah khaw, khosoek kah kum sawmli khuiah khaw a saii.
37 This is that Moses, which saide vnto the children of Israel, A Prophet shall the Lord your God raise vp vnto you, euen of your brethren, like vnto me: him shall ye heare.
Israel ca rhoek taengah, “Na ming manuca khui lamloh kai bang tonghma pakhat te Pathen loh nangmih ham a phoe sak ni, “aka ti khaw Moses amah ni.
38 This is he that was in the Congregation, in the wildernes with the Angell, which spake to him in mount Sina, and with our fathers, who receiued the liuely oracles to giue vnto vs.
khosoek kah hlangboel taengah, Sinai tlang ah anih aka voek puencawn neh a pa rhoek taengah aka om khaw amah ni. Mamih taengah paek ham aka hing olrhuh khaw anih long ni a doe.
39 To whom our fathers would not obey, but refused, and in their hearts turned backe againe into Egypt:
A pa rhoek loh anih taengah olngai la om ham ngaih uh pawt tih a tueihno uh. Te dongah a thinko khuiah Egypt la mael uh.
40 Saying vnto Aaron, Make vs gods that may goe before vs: for we knowe not what is become of this Moses that brought vs out of the land of Egypt.
Aaron te khaw, “Mamih ham pathen saii lamtah anih te mamih hmaiah lamhma saeh. Moses loh Egypt kho lamkah mamih m'mawt sut amah te metla a om khaw m'ming uh moenih,” a ti uh.
41 And they made a calfe in those dayes, and offered sacrifice vnto the idole, and reioyced in the workes of their owne handes.
Amah tekah khohnin vaengah vaito muei a hlawn uh tih mueirhol taengah hmueih a nawn uh. Tedae amamih kah kutsai nen ni a. hmae uh.
42 Then God turned himselfe away, and gaue them vp to serue the host of heauen, as it is written in the booke of the Prophets, O house of Israel, haue ye offred to me slaine beasts and sacrifices by the space of fourtie yeres in the wildernes?
Te dongah Pathen loh a mael tak tih vaan caempuei bawk sak ham amih te a voeih. Tonghma rhoek kah cabu dongah a daek bangla, Israel imkhui loh khosoek kah kum sawmli te kai taengah saha neh hmueih nang khuen moenih.
43 And ye tooke vp the tabernacle of Moloch, and the starre of your god Remphan, figures, which ye made to worship them: therefore I will carie you away beyond Babylon.
Molokh kah dap neh na pathen Rhemphan aisi ni na puen uh. Amih te bawk ham a muei na saii uh. Te dongah nangmih te Babylon rhalvangan la kan thak ni.
44 Our fathers had the tabernacle of witnes, in the wildernes, as hee had appointed, speaking vnto Moses, that he should make it according to the fashion that he had seene.
Laipai kah dap tah khosoek kah a pa rhoek taengah khaw om coeng. A uen bangla a mueimae a hmuh tarhing ah saii ham ni Moses taengah a thui.
45 Which tabernacle also our fathers receiued, and brought in with Iesus into the possession of the Gentiles, which God draue out before our fathers, vnto the dayes of Dauid:
Te te a khuen uh tih David tue duela a pa rhoek kah mikhmuh ah Pathen loh a khawkkhek namtom rhoek kah khoyo khuila a pa rhoek neh Joshua loh a pak.
46 Who found fauour before God, and desired that hee might finde a tabernacle for the God of Iacob.
David tah Pathen hmaiah lungvatnah a dang dongah Jakob imkhui te rhaehim hmuh sak ham a bih.
47 But Salomon built him an house.
Te dongah ni a im khaw Solomon loh a sak.
48 Howbeit the most High dwelleth not in temples made with handes, as saith the Prophet,
Tedae tonghma loh a thui bangla Khohni tah kutsai dongah kho a sak moenih.
49 Heauen is my throne, and earth is my footestoole: what house wil ye build for me, saith the Lord? or what place is it that I should rest in?
Vaan ke ka ngolkhoel ni, diklai khaw ka kho ham khotloeng ni. Mebang im nim kai ham na sak uh, Boeipa loh, “melae ka duemnah hmuen,” a ti.
50 Hath not mine hand made all these things?
A cungkuem he ka kut loh a saii moenih a?
51 Ye stiffenecked and of vncircumcised heartes and eares, ye haue alwayes resisted the holy Ghost: as your fathers did, so do you.
Na thinko neh na hna te a maltalh neh a dul la om. Nangmih loh Mueihla Cim te na tloelh ninoe tih nangmih khaw na pa rhoek bangla na omuh.
52 Which of the Prophets haue not your fathers persecuted? and they haue slaine them, which shewed before of the comming of that Iust, of whome ye are now the betrayers and murtherers,
Tonghma rhoek te na pa rhoek loh a hnaemtaek uh moenih a? Hlang dueng aka lo kawng aka thui rhoek te khaw a ngawn uh. Tahae ah nangmih khaw hlangyoi neh hlang aka ngawn la na om uh.
53 Which haue receiued the Lawe by the ordinance of Angels, and haue not kept it.
Anih loh puencawn kah hoihaengnah neh olkhueng a dang dae na tuem uh pawh,” a ti nah.
54 But when they heard these thinges, their heartes brast for anger, and they gnashed at him with their teeth.
Te te a yaak uh vaengah a thinko ah paeng uh tih a no a rhueng uh.
55 But he being full of the holy Ghost, looked stedfastly into heauen, and sawe the glory of God, and Iesus standing at the right hand of God,
Tedae Mueihla Cim neh a bae la a om dongah vaan la a hmaitang vaenghah Pathen kah thangpomnah neh Pathen bantang ah aka pai Jesuh te a hmuh.
56 And said, Beholde, I see the heauens open, and the Sonne of man standing at the right hand of God.
Te dongah, “Vaan ke ong uh tih hlang capa loh Pathen bantang ah a pai te ka hmuh ke,” a ti.
57 Then they gaue a shoute with a loude voyce, and stopped their eares, and ranne vpon him violently all at once,
Te vaengah ol ue la pang uh tih a hna te a buem uh. Te phoeiah anih soah huek cu uh.
58 And cast him out of the citie, and stoned him: and the witnesses layd downe their clothes at a yong mans feete, named Saul.
Te phoeiah khopuei kah a voel la a sol uh tih a dae uh. Laipai rhoek long khaw a himbai te Saul la a khue cadong kah kho ah a pit uh.
59 And they stoned Steuen, who called on God, and said, Lord Iesus, receiue my spirit.
A dae uh vaengah Stephen loh Pathen a khue tih, “Boeipa Jesuh, ka mueihla he doe lah,” a ti.
60 And he kneeled downe, and cried with a loude voyce, Lord, laye not this sinne to their charge. And when he had thus spoken, he slept.
Te phoeiah khuklu cungkueng tih ol ue la pang. Boeipa, tholhnah he amih taengah pai sak boeh,” a ti tih mawt ip.
