Acts 6
1 Now in those days, when the number of the talmidim was multiplying, a complaint arose from the Hellenists against the Hebrews, because their widows were neglected in the daily service.
Erah lih ang ano, heliphante loong ah jaatjaang ih wang rumta, Grik jengjengte Jehudi loong nyia hanok dowa Jehudi loong ah nengneng laktung ni changrook waangti ang rumta. Grik jengjengte Jehudi loong ih liita jootiinuh adoleh thaknuh loong ah ih saarep chotheng phaksat ah rapniine ih tachoh rumka.
2 So the twelve summoned the full number of the talmidim and said, "It is not appropriate for us to forsake the word of God and serve tables.
Erah thoidi asih wanyi kaamwah loong ah ih hanpiite loong ah lompoon rum ano baat rumta, “Ngun thiin raangtaan ih Rangte jengkhaap nyootsoot ah seng loong ah tami phaangdat ke.
3 Therefore select from among you, brothers, seven men of good report, full of the Ruach and of wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business.
Phoh ano loong, erah raangtaan ih, seng loongdung dowa o sak ni Esa Chiiala adoleh mongtham ese jeela erah likhiik mih ah ngun thiinte danje theng.
4 But we will continue steadfastly in prayer and in the ministry of the word."
Eno juuba Rangte tiit ah rangsoom rangphoong ih jen nyootsoot ih.”
5 And these words pleased the whole gathering. They chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Ruach ha-Kodesh, Philip, Prochorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, and Nicolaus, a proselyte of Antioch;
Heliphante loong ih renbaat rumta mongtham ah kap ih rum ano, mina loong ah ih, kamkam tuumaangte nyia moongte chaangte Stephen, Philip, Prokoras, Nikanor, Timon, Parmenas, nyia Entiok nawa Nikolas maangdi Jehudi angta loong ah danje rumta.
6 whom they set before the emissaries. When they had prayed, they laid their hands on them.
Arah miloong asuh heliphante loong ah ih neng khoh nah taajoh rum ano rang toom soomkoh rum ah ngeh ih neng reeni wangthuk rumta.
7 The word of God increased and the number of the talmidim multiplied greatly in Jerusalem; and a large group of the cohanim were obedient to the faith.
Erah thoidi Rangte jengkhaap ah noongrep ni ruurang roh eta. Heliphante loong ah Jerusalem ni weewe jaatjaat eta, erah damdi romwah hantek ih Jisu laalom tiit ah hanpi rumta.
8 Stephen, full of grace and power, performed great wonders and signs among the people.
Stephen suh Rangte ih chaan aphaan ah koh ano, miloong dung dowa mih paatjaajih loong ah noisok ih thukta.
9 But some of those who were of the synagogue called "The Libertines," and of the Cyrenians, of the Alexandrians, and of those of Cilicia and Asia arose, disputing with Stephen.
Enoothong Jehudi rangsoomnok nawa Dalang saachoi (ngeh ih men rumta), mararah mina loong ah Stephen damdi daanmui e rumta, erah di Kiren nyia Alekjendria nawa Jehudi nok hah nep angta. Silisia nyia Esia hah nawa Jehudi loong ah nep ih Stephen damdi jengmui rumta.
10 They weren't able to withstand the wisdom and the Ruach by which he spoke.
Enoothong moong achaang ih Stephen suh erah likhiik chaan kota, heh jeng kano o uh tami daanjeng rumta.
11 Then they secretly induced men to say, "We have heard him speak blasphemous words against Moses and God."
Erah raangtaan ih mararah mih asuh tiit hu baatthuk rumta, “Seng ih bah Moses nyia Rangte kaanju arah chaat hi!”
12 They stirred up the people, the elders, and the scribes, and came against him and seized him, and brought him in to the council,
Emah ih diip mokwaan rum ano, noksong nyia mihak phokhoh loong, hootthe nyootsootte loong ah khat thuk rumta. Neng loong ah ih Stephen ah jorum ano Ngoongthum theng ni siitwan rumta.
13 and set up false witnesses who said, "This man never stops speaking blasphemous words against this holy place and the Law.
Eno mih wajombaji ih tiit hu baat thuk suh ngeh ih waksiit rumta. “Arah mih,” ah ih “saarookwet seng Rangteenok nyia Moses Hootthe tiit ah pak thetbaat ha.
14 For we have heard him say that this Yeshua the Natzrati will destroy this place, and will change the customs which Moses delivered to us."
Seng ih emah jeng arah chaat hi, Najaret dowa Jisu ih Rangteenok ah thaak haat ih ah eno Moses jiin nawa neem arang loong ah elek et ah!”
15 All who sat in the council, fastening their eyes on him, saw his face like it was the face of an angel.
Ngoongthum theng ni tongte loong ah ih Stephen taangko sok rum adi, hethe hekhoh ah rangsah the akhoh likhiik ih japtup rumta.
