Acts 7
1 And the chief priest said, “Are then these things so?”
Adudagi Purohitlenna Stephen-da hanglak-i, “Nangonda siriba maralsing asi achumbra?”
2 And he said, “Men, brothers, and fathers, listen! The God of glory appeared to our father Abraham, being in Mesopotamia, before his dwelling in Haran,
Maduda Stephen-na khumlak-i, “Eigi ichil-inaosa amadi ipa ipansa, eina haijaba tabiyu! Eikhoigi ipa ipu oiriba Abraham-na Haran-da leitringei, Mesopotamia-da leiringeida matik mangalgi Tengban Mapuna mangonda uhanbikhi.
3 and He said to him, Go forth out of your land, and out of your relatives, and come to a land that I will show you.
Aduga Tengban Mapuna mangonda hairak-i, ‘Nahakki nareibak amadi nahakki mari matasingbu thadoktuna eina nangonda utpi-gadouriba leibak aduda chatlu.’
4 Then having come forth out of the land of the Chaldeans, he dwelt in Haran, and from there, after the death of his father, He removed him to this land wherein you now dwell,
Maram aduna mahakna Chaldea machasinggi lam adu thadoklaga Haran-da leirammi. Mahakki mapa leikhidraba matungda Tengban Mapuna mahakpu nakhoina houjik leiriba mapham asida thabirakkhi.
5 and He gave him no inheritance in it, not even a footstep, and promised to give it to him for a possession, and to his seed after him—he having no child.
Adubu Tengban Mapuna mapham asida mangonda phangpham thokpa lam machet ama phaoba pikhide, adubu matam aduda Abraham-gi macha amata leitrabasu Tengban Mapuna mangonda mapham asi mahak amadi mahakki tunggi charol surolda pibigani haina wasakpikhi.
6 And God spoke thus, that his seed will be sojourning in a strange land, and they will cause it to serve, and will do it evil [for] four hundred years.
Tengban Mapuna mangonda asumna hai, ‘Nahakki charol surolna mireibakta leigani aduga mapham aduda makhoi minai oigani amadi makhoibu chahi chamari tathi-tawoina toubigani.
7 And the nation whom they will serve I will judge, said God; And after these things they will come forth and will do Me service in this place.
Adubu makhoina minai oirugadaba phurup adubu eina wayen-gani amasung madugi matungda nahakki charol surolna leibak adudagi thorakkani aduga mapham asida makhoina eihakpu khurumjagani.’
8 And He gave to him a covenant of circumcision, and so he begot Isaac, and circumcised him on the eighth day, and Isaac [begot] Jacob, and Jacob—the twelve patriarchs;
Aduga Tengban Mapuna Abraham-da un-kakpagi walepnaba adu pibikhi. Maram aduna Abraham-na Isaac pokpa matung numit ni panni subada mahakpu un-kakkhi; Isaac-na mahakki machanupa Jacob-pu un-kakkhi aduga Jacob-na mahakki machanupasing aduga eikhoigi masak nairaba ipa ipusing makhoi taranithoibu un-kakkhi.”
9 and the patriarchs, having been moved with jealousy, sold Joseph to Egypt, and God was with him,
“Jacob-ki machasing aduna makhoigi machin manao oiriba Joseph-pu kallakpadagi mahakpu Egypt-ta minai oina yonkhi. Adubu Tengban Mapuna mahakpu loinabikhi
10 and delivered him out of all his tribulations, and gave him favor and wisdom before Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he set him—governor over Egypt and all his house.
aduga mahakki khudongthiba awa-ana pumnamaktagi Tengban Mapuna mahakpu kanbikhi. Egypt ningthougi mamangda Joseph-na leppa matamda Tengban Mapuna mangonda changkhonba matou amasung lousing pibirammi adudagi ningthou aduna Joseph-pu Egypt leibak amadi konung apumbagi leingak mapu oihanbikhi.
11 And there came a scarcity on all the land of Egypt and Canaan, and great tribulation, and our fathers were not finding sustenance,
Adudagi Egypt amadi Canaan-gi leibak apumbada chak tangba thoktuna yamna awa ana thoklammi. Eikhoigi ipa ipusing adu chanaba chinjak amata phanglamde.
12 and Jacob having heard that there was grain in Egypt, sent forth our fathers a first time;
Egypt-ta chanaba mahei marong lei haiba Jacob-na tabada mahakki machanupasing haibadi eikhoigi ipa ipusing oiriba makhoibu ahanba khongchat oina mapham aduda tharammi.
13 and at the second time was Joseph made known to his brothers, and Joseph’s family became disclosed to Pharaoh,
Anisuba khongchattadi Joseph-na mahakki machin manaosing aduda mahak kanano haiba masak khanghalle amasung Egypt-ki ningthouna Joseph-ki imung manunggi maramda khanglaklammi.
14 and Joseph having sent, called for his father Jacob, and all his relatives—with seventy-five souls—
Maram aduna Joseph-na mahakki mapa Jacob-ta pao thaduna mahak amadi mahakki imung manunggi mi apumba haibadi mioi humphutara-manga adu Egypt-ta lakpinaba kourammi.
15 and Jacob went down to Egypt, and died, himself and our fathers,
Adudagi Jacob-na Egypt-ta chatlammi, mapham aduda mahak amadi mahakki machanupasing sikhi.
16 and they were carried over into Shechem, and were laid in the tomb that Abraham bought for a price in money from the sons of Emmor, of Shechem.
Makhoigi hakchangsing adu Shechem tanna puraklaga Abraham-na Hamor-gi machanupasingdagi sel khara piduna leikhiba mongpham aduda leirol chankhi.”
17 And according as the time of the promise was drawing near, which God swore to Abraham, the people increased and multiplied in Egypt,
“Tengban Mapuna Abraham-da wasakpikhiba adu thunghannaba matam adu naksillaklabada Egypt-ta eikhoigi misinggi masing yamna yamkhatlakkhi.
18 until another king rose, who had not known Joseph;
Mameithangda Joseph-ki maramda karisu khangdaba ningthou amana Egypt-ta pallammi.
19 this one, having dealt subtly with our family, did evil to our fathers, causing to expose their babies, that they might not live;
Mahakna eikhoigi ipa ipusingbu lounam toukhi amadi makhoigi nouna pokpa angangsingbu sinanaba namduna langthok-handuna thina toukhi.
20 in which time Moses was born, and he was fair to God, and he was brought up [for] three months in the house of his father;
Matam aduda Moses pokkhi, mahak yamna phajaba angang ama oirammi. Mahakki mapagi yumda tha ahum yokpi thakpirammi.
21 and he having been set outside, the daughter of Pharaoh took him up, and reared him to herself for a son;
Mahakpu mahakki yumgi mapanda thamlabada, ningthou adugi machanupina mahakpu louduna mahak masagi machanupa oina yokkhatlakkhi.
22 and Moses was taught in all wisdom of the Egyptians, and he was powerful in words and in works.
Mahakpu Egypt-ki lousing pumnamak tambikhi aduga mahak waheida amadi thabakta matik leiba mi ama oirakkhi.”
23 And when forty years were fulfilled to him, it came on his heart to look after his brothers, the sons of Israel;
“Mahak chahi niphu surammi, mahakna mahakki Israel-gi misingbu kamdouna loinabiri haiba yengge leplammi.
24 and having seen a certain one suffering injustice, he defended, and did justice to the oppressed, having struck the Egyptian;
Makhoigi maraktagi amabu Egypt-ki mi amana thina touba urammi. Maram aduna mahakna mahakpu mateng pangnaba changlammi aduga Egypt-ki mi adubu hattuna laman khumlammi.
25 and he was supposing his brothers to understand that God gives salvation through his hand; and they did not understand.
Makhoibu kanbinaba Tengban Mapuna mahakpu sijinnaribani haiba mahakki misingna khangbigani haina Moses-na khallammi adubu makhoina madu khanglamde.
26 On the succeeding day, also, he showed himself to them as they are striving, and urged them to peace, saying, Men, you are brothers, why do you do injustice to one another?
Mathanggi numitta Israel-gi macha ani khatnariba adu ubada makhoibu taisinnanaba hotnarammi. Mahakna hairak-i, ‘Ibungokhoi, nakhoi nachil nanaosingni. Karigi nakhoina asumna khatnaribano?’
27 And he who is doing injustice to the neighbor, thrusted him away, saying, Who set you a ruler and a judge over us?
Thina touriba mi aduna Moses-pu inthoklaga hairak-i, ‘Nahakpu eikhoigi ithakta mapu amadi wayel mapu oina kanana happage?’
28 Do you wish to kill me, as you killed the Egyptian yesterday?
‘Ngarang nangna Egypt-ki mi adu hatpagumna eibusu hatpa pamlibra?’
29 And Moses fled at this word, and became a sojourner in the land of Midian, where he begot two sons,
Moses-na masi tabada Egypt-tagi chenkhiduna Midian-gi lamda lamlanba oina leirammi. Mapham aduda machanupa ani phangkhi.”
30 and forty years having been fulfilled, there appeared to him in the wilderness of Mount Sinai [the] Messenger of the LORD, in a flame of fire of a bush,
“Chahi niphu houkhraba matungda Sinai ching manakki leikanglada achakpa mongsong amagi meirilakta dut amana Moses-ta uhanbirammi.
31 and Moses having seen, wondered at the sight; and he drawing near to behold, there came a voice of the LORD to him,
Mahakna uriba adu Moses ngaklammi, henna ningthina unaba mongsong adugi manakta changsillammi. Adubu mahakna Mapu Ibungogi khonjel tarammi:
32 I [am] the God of your fathers; the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. And Moses having become terrified, did not dare behold,
‘Eihak nahakki napa napusinggi Tengban Mapuni, Abraham, Isaac amadi Jacob-ki Tengban Mapuni.’ Maduda Moses-na kibana niklammi amadi mahakna yengbagi thouna leiramde.
33 and the LORD said to him, Loose the sandal of your feet, for the place in which you have stood is holy ground;
Adudagi MAPU IBUNGO-na mangonda hairak-i, ‘Nahakki khong-up louthok-u maramdi nahakna lepliba mapham adu asengba maphamni.
34 seeing I have seen the affliction of My people that [is] in Egypt, and I heard their groaning, and came down to deliver them; and now come, I will send you to Egypt.
Egypt-ta eigi misingbu ot neiba adu eina ure. Makhoigi naheba adu eina tare amasung makhoibu kanbinaba eihak kumtharaklabani. Houjik lak-u, eina nangbu Egypt-ta thagani.’”
35 This Moses, whom they refused, saying, Who set you a ruler and a judge? This one God sent [as] a ruler and a redeemer, by the hand of [the] Messenger who appeared to him in the bush;
“Hairiba Moses asimakni Israel-gi misingna yakhidaba mahak adu. ‘Nahakpu eikhoigi ithakta mapu amadi wayel mapu oina kanana happage?’ haiduna makhoina mangonda hangkhi. Achakpa mongsongda uhanbikhiba dut adugi mapanna Israel-gi misinggi mathakta pannanaba amadi makhoibu ningtamhanbinaba Tengban Mapuna thabikhiba adu mahakni.
36 this one brought them forth, having done wonders and signs in the land of Egypt, and in the Red Sea, and in the wilderness forty years;
Mahakna makhoibu Egypt-tagi chingbirakkhi, angakpa thabaksing amadi khudamsing Egypt-ta amasung Angangba Ipakta aduga chahi niphu lamjao lamhangda toukhi.
37 this is the Moses who said to the sons of Israel: The LORD your God will raise up to you a Prophet out of your brothers, like to me, Him will you hear.
‘Eibu thabirakpagumna Tengban Mapugi wa phongdokpiba maichou ama Tengban Mapuna thabirakkani aduga mahak nakhoigi naraktagi mi oigani’ haina Israel-gi misingda haikhiba mahak adu Moses asini.
38 This is he who was in the assembly in the wilderness, with the Messenger who is speaking to him in Mount Sinai, and with our fathers who received the living oracles to give to us;
Lamjao lamhangda Israel-gi misingna punna leiba aduda leiminnaramba adu mahak asini. Mapham aduda mahak eikhoigi ipa ipusingga loinana amasung Sinai chingda mangonda wa ngangbiba dut aduga leiminnarammi aduga eikhoida pinaba Tengban Mapugi ahingba waheising adu mahakna phangjakhi.”
39 to whom our fathers did not wish to become obedient, but thrusted away, and turned back in their hearts to Egypt,
“Adubu eikhoigi ipa ipusingna mahakna haiba illu yakhide, makhoina mahakpu inthoktuna makhoigi thamoinadi Egypt-ta amuk hankhi.
40 saying to Aaron, Make to us gods who will go on before us, for this Moses, who brought us forth out of the land of Egypt, we have not known what has happened to him.
Maram aduna makhoina Aaron-da hairak-i, ‘Eikhoibu chingbinaba laising sabiyu. Eikhoibu Egypt-tagi chinglakpa nupa Moses aduda kari thokkhrabano haiba eikhoina khangde.’
41 And they made a calf in those days, and brought a sacrifice to the idol, and were rejoicing in the works of their hands,
Matam adudani makhoina sannao ama saduna maduda iratpot katkhi aduga makhoigi khutna saba pot aduda makhoina haraokhi.
42 and God turned, and gave them up to do service to the host of Heaven, according as it has been written in the scroll of the Prophets: Did you offer slain beasts and sacrifices to Me forty years in the wilderness, O house of Israel?
Maram aduna Tengban Mapuna makhoidagi mai leithokkhiduna atiyada leiriba numit, tha amadi thawanmichaksingbu makhoina khurumnaba makhoibu thadoklammi. Tengban Mapugi wa phongdokpiba maichousinggi lairikta asumna ikhibagumbani: ‘Israel-gi misa! Lamjao lamhangda chahi niphu nakhoina sasing hattuna katkhiba adu eingonda katpa natte.
43 And you took up the dwelling place of Moloch, and the star of your god Remphan—the figures that you made to worship them, and I will remove your dwelling beyond Babylon.
Molech laigi phi-sang adu nakhoina pui, aduga nakhoigi thawanmichak lai Rephan-gi murti pui; murtising adu nakhoina khurumnaba sabani. Maram aduna eina nakhoibu Babylon-gi wangmada loi thagani.’”
44 The Dwelling Place of the Testimony was among our fathers in the wilderness, according as He directed, who is speaking to Moses, to make it according to the figure that he had seen;
“Tengban Mapuna loinabibagi Phi-sang adu eikhoigi ipa ipusingna lamjao lamhangda makhoiga loinana thamlammi. Madu Tengban Mapuna Moses-ta haikhiba amadi Moses-ta utpikhiba mawong adugi matung inna sabani.
45 which also our fathers having in succession received, brought in with Joshua, into the possession of the nations whom God drove out from the presence of our fathers, until the days of David,
Phi-sang adu phangjaraba matungda, Tengban Mapuna makhoigi mangda tanthokkhraba phurupsing adudagi lousinkhraba lam aduda Joshua-gi luching makhada makhoina phi-sang adu purakkhi. Aduga phi-sang adu lam aduda David-ki matam phaoba leirammi.
46 who found favor before God, and requested to find a dwelling place for the God of Jacob;
David-na Tengban Mapugi thoujal phangjaduna Jacob-ki Tengban Mapugi leipham ama mahakna sajanabagidamak nijarammi.
47 and Solomon built Him a house.
Adubu Ibungogidamak yum sajakhiba adu Solomon-nani.”
48 But the Most High does not dwell in sanctuaries made with hands, according as the prophet says:
“Adum oinamak Wangthoiraba Tengban Mapudi mioibagi khutna saba yumda leite. Tengban Mapugi wa phongdokpiba maichouna asumna haikhi,
49 Heaven [is] My throne, And the earth My footstool, What house will you build to Me? Says the LORD; Or what [is] the place of My rest?
‘MAPU IBUNGO-na hai, swargadi eigi phambalni aduga malemna eigi khongnetphamni. Eigidamak nakhoina karamba yum sagadage? Nattraga eina leigada mapham kadaidano?
50 Has My hand not made all these things?
Eigi khutna pot pumnamaksing asi semkhiba nattra?’”
51 You stiff-necked and uncircumcised in heart and in ears! You always resist the Holy Spirit; as your fathers—also you;
Stephen-na makha tarak-i, “Nakhoisi kayada nangak kallibano! Nakhoigi thamoidi kayada Tengban Mapu khangdaba thamoi oiriba aduga Tengban Mapugi waheida nakhoigi nana kayada kalliba! Nakhoi nakhoigi napa napusing aduga chap manei: nakhoisu matam pumbada Thawai Asengbabu yeknei!
52 which of the prophets did your fathers not persecute? And they killed those who declared before about the coming of the Righteous One, of whom you have now become betrayers and murderers,
Tengban Mapugi wa phongdokpiba maichou amata nakhoigi napa napusingna ot-neikhidaba yaobra? Achumba chatpa Ibungo adu lakkani haina hanna phongdokpasing adu makhoina hatkhi. Aduga houjikti nakhoina Ibungo mahakpu pithokle amasung hatle.
53 who received the Law by arrangement of messengers, and did not keep [it].”
Swargadutsinggi mapanna piramba Tengban Mapugi wayel yathang adu nakhoina phangle adubu nakhoina madu ngakte.”
54 And hearing these things, they were cut to the hearts, and gnashed the teeth at him;
Makhoina masi tabada Stephen-gi mathakta mei houna saorammi amadi maya krak krak chiklammi.
55 and being full of the Holy Spirit, having looked steadfastly to the sky, he saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God,
Adubu Thawai Asengbana thalladuna Stephen-na swargada yengkhatle aduga Tengban Mapugi matik mangal amadi Jisuna Tengban Mapugi yet thangbada lepliba adu urammi.
56 and he said, “Behold, I see the heavens having been opened, and the Son of Man standing on the right hand of God.”
Maduda mahakna hairak-i, “Yeng-u, swarga hangdokpa amadi Migi Machanupa aduna Tengban Mapugi yet thangbada lepliba asi eina ujare!”
57 And they, having cried out with a loud voice, stopped their ears, and rushed with one accord on him,
Masida makhoina makhoigi manakong makhutna mensillaga akanba khonjelna laoraduna makhoi pumnamakna Stephen tamna chensillammi
58 and having cast him forth outside of the city, they were stoning [him]—and the witnesses put down their garments at the feet of a young man called Saul—
aduga mahakpu sahargi wangmada chingthoklaga mahakpu nungna thaba hourammi. Sakhi oiribasing aduna makhoigi maphising adu Saul kouba naha oiriba nupa amagi makhongda thamlammi.
59 and they were stoning Stephen, [as he was] calling and saying, “Lord Jesus, receive my spirit”;
Makhoina Stephen-bu nungna tharingeida mahakna Tengban Mapuda haijarak-i, “Ibungo Jisu, eigi thawai lousinbiyu.”
60 and having bowed the knees, he cried with a loud voice, “LORD, may You not lay to them this sin”; and having said this, he fell asleep.
Adudagi mahakna khuru khudak kunduna ahouba khonjelda laorak-i, “Mapu Ibungo, pap asi makhoigi mathakta singthanabiganu.” Masi hairamlaga mahak sikhre.
