Acts 6
1 And in these days, the disciples multiplying, there came a murmuring of the Hellenists at the Hebrews, because their widows were being overlooked in the daily ministry,
Itungili mu mahiku aya, matungo i ngele a amanyisigwa nai ikatulaa i kongeeleka, u witushi nua Ayahudi nia ki Yunani ai landilye ku a Ebrania, kunsoko ahimbi ao ai atulaa akiwa mu womolang'yi nua kila luhiku nua ndya.
2 and the Twelve, having called near the multitude of the disciples, said, “It is not pleasing that we, having left the word of God, minister at tables;
Itumi ikumi na abiili ai aitangile u milundo wihi nua amanyisigwa nu kuligitya, “Shanga iziza kita itu kululeka u lukani nulang'wa Itunda nu kua aiilya mu meza.
3 look out, therefore, brothers, seven men of you who are testified well of, full of the Holy Spirit and wisdom, whom we may set over this necessity,
Ku lulo anyandugu, holang'yi, agoha mupungati, kupuma mukati anyu, antu akende, ni izue u Ng'wau Ng'welu nua upolo, naza kuhumile kuinkiilya u uailya uwu.
4 and we to prayer, and to the ministry of the word, will give ourselves continually.”
Nu sese, ku ulongoleka ikali kulompa nu mu uailya nua lukani.
5 And the thing was pleasing before all the 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 Nicolaus, a proselyte of Antioch,
Uganuli nuao ukaliloeelya ianza lihi. Iti gwa ikamuholania uStefano, muntu nuizuee uhuiili nu Ng'wau Ng'welu, nu Filipo, Prokoro, Nikanori, Timoni, Parmena, nu Nikolao, muokole kupuma ku Antiokia.
6 whom they set before the apostles, and they, having prayed, laid [their] hands on them.
Ahuiili ai a aletile i antu awa ntongeela a itumi, nai alompile ni panyambele aka aikiilya i mikono ao.
7 And the word of God increased, and the number of the disciples multiplied in Jerusalem exceedingly; a great multitude of the priests were also obedient to the faith.
Iti gwa, lukani nulang'wa Itunda likenela; ni ngele a amanyisigwa ai ikiile kongeeleka uko ku Yerusalemu; ni ngele nkulu a akuhani aka ukulya u uhuiili.
8 And Stephen, full of faith and power, was doing great wonders and signs among the people,
Nu Stefano, nai wizuee u ukende ni ngulu, ai watulaa ukituma ukuilwa ni ilingasiilyo ikulu mukati ao mu antu.
9 and there arose certain of those of the synagogue, the [one] called Libertines (and Cyrenians, and Alexandrians, and of those from Cilicia, and Asia), disputing with Stephen,
Kuiti pang'wanso akanyansuka ang'wi ao a antu atyatiili itekeelo ni litangwaa itekeelo nila Mahulu, ni la a Kirene hangi la Aesksnderia, ni ang'wi kupuma ku Kilikia ni Asia. Antu awa ai atulaa akikolenkeelya nu Stefano
10 and they were not able to resist the wisdom and the Spirit with which he was speaking;
Kuiti, shanga ai ahumile ki kilya nu upolo nua Ng'wau Ng'welu naiza uStefano ai watulaa ukutumila mu witambuili.
11 then they suborned men, saying, “We have heard him speaking slanderous sayings in regard to Moses and God.”
Uugwa ai uapembeseeye ang'wi a antu ku kinkunku kuligitya, “Kigulye uStefano ukuligitya makani a kimeli kung'wa Musa ni kung'wa Itunda.”
12 They also stirred up the people, and the elders, and the scribes, and having come on [him], they caught him, and brought [him] to the Sanhedrin;
Ai a asingilye i antu, anyampala, ni amanyi, nu kumuhanga uStefano, akamuamba, nu kumuleta ntongeela i anza,
13 they also set up false witnesses, saying, “This one does not cease to speak evil sayings against this holy place and the Law,
aka aleta ia kuiili nia uteele, azeligitya, “umuntu uyu shanga ukuleka kitunta i makani ni mabii ku kianza iki ni kelu ni ilagiilyo.
14 for we have heard him saying that this Jesus the Nazarean will overthrow this place, and will change the customs that Moses delivered to us”;
Ku iti kumigulye ukuligitya kina uyu uYesu nua ku Nazareti ukubipya i nkika apa nu kuikaila i ntendo nai kinkiigwe nu Musa.”
15 and gazing at him, all those sitting in the Sanhedrin saw his face as it were the face of a messenger.
Kila ung'wi nai ukoli mi ananza, akatunja i miho akwe kumugozeela uStefano, ni enso akihenga u usu nuakwe ai watulaa anga usu wang'wa malaika.
