< Acts 7 >

1 And the chief priest said, “Are then these things so?”
Basa ma malangga monaeꞌ agama Yahudi natane Stefanus nae, “Ara kalaak ho naa, tebꞌe, do hokoꞌ?”
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,
Stefanus nataa nae, “Amaꞌ no toronoo nggare! Rena au dei. Dalahulu na, hita baꞌi na Abraham nda feꞌe lao hela kambo na sa, te Lamatualain mana seliꞌ, natudꞌu ao na neu e. Ana parenda e nae, ‘Lao hela nusa ma ia, ma bobꞌonggi mara. Lao leon, misiꞌ nusaꞌ esa dei fo au utudꞌu neu nggo!’ Naa de baꞌi Abraham lao mia rae Mesopotamia, fo lali nisiꞌ kota Haran.
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.
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,
No taꞌo naa, ana lao hela atahori Kasdim ra nusa na, de lali nisiꞌ kota Haran. Ama bꞌonggi na mate ma, Lamatualain no e nisiꞌ nusaꞌ Kanaꞌan. Nusaꞌ Kanaꞌan ia, rae fo amaꞌ ra ro toronooꞌ ra leoꞌ ia.
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.
Leleꞌ naa Lamatualain nda banggi rae hangga esa saꞌ boe fo dadꞌi baꞌi Abraham pusaka na sa. Te Lamatualain helu nae dei fo fee rae ia neu baꞌi Abraham tititi-nonosi nara fo dadꞌi rae pusaka. Te leleꞌ naa baꞌi Abraham nda feꞌe ma anaꞌ sa.
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.
Te Lamatualain olaꞌ no e nae, ‘Tititi-nonosi mara dei fo leo sia atahori feaꞌ ra nusa na. Boe ma atahori naa ra tuni-ndeni se, losa tao se dadꞌi ata nara ma tao se nda maloleꞌ sa losa too natun haa.
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.
Dei fo au huku-doki hatahori mana tao tititi-nonosi mara dadꞌi ate. Boe ma tititi-nonosi mara lao hela nusaꞌ naa, ma baliꞌ risiꞌ rae Kanaꞌan ia fo hule-oꞌe roꞌe makasi neu Au.’
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;
Lamatualain olaꞌ basa ma, Ana tao hehelu-fufuliꞌ no sunat fo dadꞌi bukti oi Abraham se dadꞌi Lamatualain atahori Na ena. Naa de, leleꞌ Abraham ana na Isak, feꞌe fai falu, ana sunat e. Basa de Isak sunat ana na Yakob. Yakob o sunat ana tou ka sanahulu rua nara, leleꞌ ara feꞌe fai beꞌe faluꞌ. Basa se ia ra, hita atahori Yahudi ra bei-baꞌi nara.
9 and the patriarchs, having been moved with jealousy, sold Joseph to Egypt, and God was with him,
Lao esa ma, hita bei-baꞌi nara rala nara mera mbali odi nara Yusuf. De ara seo e dadꞌi ate sia rae Masir. Te Lamatualain nda lao hela e sa.
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.
Ana mboꞌi e mia basa sususaꞌ ra, ma fee ne mahineꞌ fo nahine dalaꞌ naeꞌ. Huu naa, mane Masir a sue e, de soꞌu e dadꞌi lima onan sia rae Masir. Ana o toꞌu koasa sia maneꞌ a ume panggat na.
11 And there came a scarcity on all the land of Egypt and Canaan, and great tribulation, and our fathers were not finding sustenance,
Basa naa ma fai ndoes nema laꞌe rae Masir ma rae Kanaꞌan. Fai ndoes, naseliꞌ tebꞌe, de atahori hetar susasona sia bee-bꞌee. Naa de hita bei-baꞌi nara nda hambu raa saa saꞌ boe.
12 and Jacob having heard that there was grain in Egypt, sent forth our fathers a first time;
Te baꞌi Yakob rena oi nanaat sia rae Masir. Boe ma ana denu ana nara, fo hita bei-bai nara, reu hasa nanaat sia naa.
13 and at the second time was Joseph made known to his brothers, and Joseph’s family became disclosed to Pharaoh,
Ara hasa basa ma, ara baliꞌ. Ara raa hendi basa nanaat ra ma, Yakob denu se reu hasa seluꞌ sia Masir. Dei de Yusuf feꞌe nafadꞌe se nae, eni sira odꞌi bonggi na. Ma fee mane Masir a nahine se.
14 and Joseph having sent, called for his father Jacob, and all his relatives—with seventy-five souls—
Basa naa ma, Yusuf noꞌe ama na no odꞌi-aꞌa nara lali Masir reu. Basa se atahori hitu nulu lima.
15 and Jacob went down to Egypt, and died, himself and our fathers,
De Yakob se lali Masir reu. Basa de, hita bei-baꞌi nara mate mia naa.
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.
Dꞌoo na seli dei de, ara rendi baliꞌ bei-baꞌiꞌ ra rui nara risiꞌ kambo Sikem. Ara raꞌoi ruiꞌ naa ra sia mamana rates fo maꞌahulu na baꞌi Abraham hasa mia Hemor tititi-nonosi nara.”
17 And according as the time of the promise was drawing near, which God swore to Abraham, the people increased and multiplied in Egypt,
Stefanus olaꞌ nakandoo nae, “Basa ia ra dadꞌi, huu Lamatualain helu basa nae, dei fo Eni fee mamanaꞌ naa neu Abraham dadꞌi rae pusaka. Deka fai fo Lamatualain natetuꞌ helu-fuli Na naa, hita atahori Yahudi ra boe ramaheta sia rae Masir ena.
18 until another king rose, who had not known Joseph;
Leleꞌ naa, mane feuꞌ sa toꞌu parendaꞌ sia Masir. Te nda nahine Yusuf sa.
19 this one, having dealt subtly with our family, did evil to our fathers, causing to expose their babies, that they might not live;
Maneꞌ naa tabꞌu-roroo hita atahori nara. Ma ana tuni-ndeni hita bei-baꞌi nara. Ana o parenda se no deres fo nggari hendi ana mana bꞌonggi feu nara, fo ara mate.
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;
Leleꞌ naa, baꞌi Musa ina na bonggi e. Aꞌo na meulau na seli. Ama-ina na nda tungga maneꞌ a parenda na sa. Ara raꞌaboi raꞌafuniꞌ e sia ume losa fula telu.
21 and he having been set outside, the daughter of Pharaoh took him up, and reared him to herself for a son;
Basa ma ara nda afiꞌ raꞌafuniꞌ rala e sia ume sa ena, de mboꞌi hendiꞌ e. Te mane Masir ana feto na nita e, de naꞌabꞌoi e onaꞌ ana bonggi na.
22 and Moses was taught in all wisdom of the Egyptians, and he was powerful in words and in works.
Naa de atahori Masir ra ranori sira mahine nara basa se neu Musa. De ana dadꞌi atahori manaseliꞌ, mahineꞌ ma masiꞌet boe.
23 And when forty years were fulfilled to him, it came on his heart to look after his brothers, the sons of Israel;
Musa too haa nulu boe ma, ana nae neu nahine atahori Israꞌel nara.
24 and having seen a certain one suffering injustice, he defended, and did justice to the oppressed, having struck the Egyptian;
Ana neu ma nita atahori Masir esa momoko atahori Israꞌel sa. Ana neu tulun eni atahori na, ma nisa atahori Masir a.
25 and he was supposing his brothers to understand that God gives salvation through his hand; and they did not understand.
Ana duꞌa nae neꞌo atahori nara bubꞌuluꞌ Lamatualain denu eni, fo neu tulu-fali se mia sususaꞌ. Te ara nda feꞌe bubꞌuluꞌ sa.
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?
Mbila ma, Musa neu seꞌu seluꞌ atahori nara. Ana nita atahori nara rua rafetu. De ana sobꞌa nadꞌameꞌ ruꞌa se nae, “Wee! Hei ruꞌa nggi, odꞌi-aꞌa. Te taꞌo bee de mifetu taꞌo ia?”
27 And he who is doing injustice to the neighbor, thrusted him away, saying, Who set you a ruler and a judge over us?
Te atahori mana momoko nonoo na timba baꞌi Musa nisiꞌ suuꞌ neu, de nae, ‘Seka soꞌu nggo dadꞌi hai malangga ma? Ma seka soꞌu nggo dadꞌi hai mana maꞌetuꞌ dedꞌeat ma?
28 Do you wish to kill me, as you killed the Egyptian yesterday?
Mbei ma ho mae misa au, onaꞌ ho misa atahori Masir a afis a, do?’
29 And Moses fled at this word, and became a sojourner in the land of Midian, where he begot two sons,
Musa rena taꞌo naa, ma ana fela lao hela Masir. Ana neu leo sia atahori Median ra nusa na. Basa ma, ana sao sia naa, de bonggi ana touꞌ rua.
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,
Too haa nulu boe ma, Musa nisiꞌ mamana madꞌaꞌ esa deka no leteꞌ sa, naran lete Sinai. Sia naa Lamatualain ate Na esa mia sorga neu nandaa no e mia ai sia hau anaꞌ sa rala. Hau a nenelalanggeꞌ, te nda kadꞌe sa.
31 and Moses having seen, wondered at the sight; and he drawing near to behold, there came a voice of the LORD to him,
Musa nita ma, ana ndii-ndiiꞌ a. Ana neu deka fo nae nahine saa sia naa. Aiboiꞌ ma, ana rena Lamatualain olaꞌ mia ai rala nae,
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,
‘Au ia, bei-baꞌi mara Lamatualain na. Baꞌim Abraham, Isak, ma Yakob beꞌutee neu Au.’ Musa rena ma, ana namatau de ao na nggeꞌe-nggeꞌe, ma nda nambarani botiꞌ mata na fo mete hau mana lalanggeꞌ naa sa.
33 and the LORD said to him, Loose the sandal of your feet, for the place in which you have stood is holy ground;
Boe ma Lamatualain olaꞌ seluꞌ nae, ‘We Musa! Ho ririi sia rae meumareꞌ. De olu hendi laopei ma!
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.
Seꞌu te mae Au liliiꞌ Au atahori Israꞌel ngga sia Masir a. Hokoꞌ! Au feꞌe usunedꞌa se. Au bubꞌuluꞌ doidꞌoso nara ma rena hara hule-oꞌe nara. De Au ae mboꞌi se. Uma dei! Au ae denu baliꞌ nggo Masir muu.’
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;
No taꞌo naa, Lamatualain natudꞌu ao Na mia ai rala ma parenda Musa fo baliꞌ Masir neu. Lamatualain dudꞌu e neu mboꞌi atahori Israꞌel mia doidꞌoso nara. Musa ia, fo maꞌahulu na atahori ra ratane rae, ‘Seka soꞌu nggo dadꞌi hai malangga ma?’ Ia naa Lamatualain mana soꞌu e!
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;
Basa naa boe ma, Musa baliꞌ Masir neu. Ana tao mana dadꞌiꞌ ra seli sia naa. Basa ma, ana no atahori Israꞌel ra lao hela Masir. Ara lao tungga Tasi Mbilas, ma laoꞌ ndule mamana rouꞌ ra losa too haa nulu.
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.
Musa nafadꞌe atahori Israꞌel ra rae, ‘Dei fo Lamatualain soꞌu atahori sa sia hei taladꞌa ma, fo dadꞌi mana ola-ola Na, onaꞌ Ana soꞌu au ia.
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;
Musa naꞌabꞌue no hita atahori Israꞌel nara sia mamana rouꞌ ra. Ana dadꞌi leleteꞌ fee hita bei-baꞌi nara ro Lamatualain ate Na mia sorga. Ate naa naꞌondaꞌ Lamatualain Dedꞌea-oꞌola Na neu Musa sia lete Sinai. Dedꞌea-oꞌolaꞌ naa, mana natudꞌu hita dala masodꞌaꞌ ndos.
39 to whom our fathers did not wish to become obedient, but thrusted away, and turned back in their hearts to Egypt,
Mae taꞌo naa o, hita bei-baꞌi nara nda nau rena Musa sa. Ara nda simbo e sa, de rae baliꞌ Masir reu.
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.
Basa naa ma, ara reu kokoe Harun rae, ‘Amaꞌ odꞌi na Musa no hai lao hela rae Masir. Te ia naa, hai nda bubꞌuluꞌ ana sia bee saꞌ boe. Dadꞌi hai moꞌe fo amaꞌ tao fee hai sosonggoꞌ, fo ana mana nalalao hai.’
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,
De ara tao sosonggoꞌ, mata na onaꞌ sapi anaꞌ. Ara tunu-hotu banda ma feta-dote fee sosonggoꞌ a. Ara maꞌahee ro saa fo sira tao ao nara.
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?
Lamatualain nita taꞌo naa ma nasadꞌea se. De ara songgo sudꞌi a saa sia lalai onaꞌ relo, fulan, ma nduuꞌ. Onaꞌ o Lamatualain hela se taꞌo a naa ena. Naa ndaa no saa fo Lamatualain mana ola-ola nara suraꞌ mia dalahulu na rae, ‘We! Atahori Israꞌel re! To haa nulu hei laoꞌ ndule mamana rouꞌ ra, ma tunu-hotu banda fo beꞌutee neu Au, do, neu se?
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.
Hei nda koa-kio Au sa! Tungga fai hei songgo neuꞌ a sosonggo mara. Hei hiiꞌ a masoꞌ kalua nitu Molok ume sosonggo na. Hei o hii songgo nduuꞌ esa nitu na, naran Refan. Dadꞌi hei hiiꞌ a songgo neu saa fo hei tao ao mara! Dei fo Au nggari nggi miꞌidꞌodꞌooꞌ seli Babel mi’.
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;
Stefanus olaꞌ nakandoo nae, “Lamatualain natudꞌu baꞌi Musa mamana Hule-Oꞌeꞌ esa rupa na. De Musa se rafefela Lalaat Hule-Oꞌeꞌ esa mia banda rouꞌ no temeꞌ tungga rupaꞌ naa. Basa naa ma, atahori Israꞌel ra reu hule-oꞌe neu Lamatualain sia naa. Mete ma ara lali mamanaꞌ, naa ara ofe Lalaat Hule-Oꞌeꞌ a, ara paꞌa e, de rendi e nisi ꞌ mamana feuꞌ. Losa naa, ara rafefela seluꞌ Lalaat a.
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,
Dꞌodꞌoo ma, leleꞌ Yosua se ratati ro atahori feaꞌ sia nusa Kanaꞌan ma, Lamatualain oi hendi atahori naa ra. Basa de, Lamatualain babꞌanggi nusaꞌ naa neu hita bei-baꞌi nara. Leleꞌ ara rambas rala nusaꞌ naa, ara o rendi Lalaa Hule-Oꞌe a neu boe. Lalaat a nambariiꞌ sia naa losa mane Daud toꞌu parendaꞌ.
46 who found favor before God, and requested to find a dwelling place for the God of Jacob;
Mane Daud ia, hule-oꞌe neu Lamatualain onaꞌ hita baꞌi Yakob na no ume isi nara. Daud tao namahoꞌo Lamatualain rala Na, de Lamatualain pala banggi fee ne papala-babꞌanggiꞌ. Daud o noꞌe Lamatualain fo eni mana nafefela Ume Hule-Oꞌe feuꞌ.
47 and Solomon built Him a house.
Te ana na Soleman mana nafefela Ume Hule-Oꞌe Huuꞌ a.
48 But the Most High does not dwell in sanctuaries made with hands, according as the prophet says:
Hita bubꞌuluꞌ tae, Lamatualain leo sia mamanaꞌ nanarun seli. Ana nda leo sia ume fo atahori taoꞌ sa. Huu maꞌahulu na, mana ola-ola Na esa suraꞌ hela rae,
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?
‘Lalai a, Au kadera parenda ngga. Raefafoꞌ a, Au ei tatabu ngga. Taꞌo bee de hei mae mifefela ume esa nandaa Au leo sia naa? Nda bisa sa.
50 Has My hand not made all these things?
Te lalai no raefafoꞌ isi na, Au mana uꞌudꞌadꞌadꞌiꞌ!’”
51 You stiff-necked and uncircumcised in heart and in ears! You always resist the Holy Spirit; as your fathers—also you;
Stefanus olaꞌ seluꞌ, ma bua se nae, “Hei langga fatu mara seli! Onaꞌ atahori nda mana rahine Lamatualain sa, ma nda nau rena E sa. Hei akaꞌ labꞌan E, onaꞌ bei-baꞌiꞌ mara mana rasadꞌea E. Ia naa hei feꞌe mae labꞌan Dula-dale Meumare Na, do?
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,
Hei bei-baꞌi mara raꞌasususaꞌ Lamatualain mana ola-ola Nara. Mifadꞌe sobꞌa: mana ola-olaꞌ bee fo ara nda raꞌasususaꞌ e sa? Nda hambu sa, to? Maꞌahulu na mana ola-olaꞌ Nara rafadꞌe memaꞌ oi, Lamatualain nae haitua Atahori Meumare Na. Te hei bei-baꞌi mara risa Lamatualain mana ola-olaꞌ nara. Losa hei o sangga dalaꞌ pake atahori feaꞌ fo risa Lamatualain Atahori Meumare Na.
53 who received the Law by arrangement of messengers, and did not keep [it].”
Lamatualain ate Nara mia sorga o rendi basa atoran adat fo Lamatualain nae fee hita, te hei nda toe sa.”
54 And hearing these things, they were cut to the hearts, and gnashed the teeth at him;
Atahori mana endoꞌ sia mamana nggero dedꞌeat a rena Stefanus oꞌola na, ma rahine rae ana fee salaꞌ neu se. De rala nara mera ma rangginggio.
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,
Te Lamatualain Dula-dale Meumare Na dai Stefanus ena. Ana oroꞌa mete lalai a. De nita Lamatualain mandete-masaꞌan, no Lamatuaꞌ Yesus nambariiꞌ sia Lamatualain bobꞌoa ona Na, sia mamana nenefee hadat naa.
56 and he said, “Behold, I see the heavens having been opened, and the Son of Man standing on the right hand of God.”
Ana olaꞌ nae, “Ama nggare. Au ita lalai a sii, ma Atahori Matetuꞌ a nambariiꞌ sia mamana nenefee hadat sia Lamatualain bobꞌoa ona Na.”
57 And they, having cried out with a loud voice, stopped their ears, and rushed with one accord on him,
Atahori mana endoꞌ sia naa ra rena ma, ara oꞌoo ndiki nara. Ara nggasi denu Stefanus oꞌoo bafa na. Basa se teteek fo rae aꞌame Stefanus.
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—
Ara lea rendi e nisiꞌ kota a deaꞌ. Sakasi ra olu badꞌu nara, de fee ana soruꞌ esa nara na Saulus toꞌu. Ana dadꞌi sira mana natatale na. Boe ma reu mbia Stefanus.
59 and they were stoning Stephen, [as he was] calling and saying, “Lord Jesus, receive my spirit”;
Ara feꞌe mbia Stefanus, ma ana randu nahereꞌ nae, “Lamatuaꞌ Yesus! Au fai ngga deka ena. Simbo mala au!”
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.
Boe ma ana naꞌaloli napadilu neu lululangga na, de randu nahereꞌ seluꞌ nae, “Amaꞌ, afiꞌ fee se lemba-dꞌoi salaꞌ ia!” Basa ma, hahae na etu, ma ana mate.
