Acts 6
1 But in those days, when the number of the disciples was multiplying, there arose a murmuring of the Hellenists against the Hebrews, because their widows were neglected in the daily ministration.
Mbe oli munsiku ejo, ao obhukumi bhwa bheigisibhwa bhwaliga nibhukanya, lilalamiko lya bhayaudi bhe chiyunani nilingira mubhaebrania, kunjuno abhasigwa bhebhwe bhaliga mbabharabhirwa mumugabho gwe bhiryo bhya bhuli lusiku.
2 And the twelve called the multitude of the disciples to them, and said, It doth not seem to us proper, that we should leave the word of God, and provide for tables.
Jintumwa ekumi ne bhili bhabhilikiye likofyanya lyona lya bheigisibhwa mbaika ati, “Itali kisi okusiga omusango gwa Nyamuanga no kufurubhenda kumeja.
3 Therefore, brethren, look out among you seven men of good repute, full of the Spirit and of wisdom, whom we will appoint over this business;
Mbe oli, bhasu, musole, abharume musanju, okusoka agati yemwe, abhanu bhekisi, abho bhejuye Omwoyo no bhwengeso, abho echitura okuyana obhufurubhendi bhunu.
4 but we will give ourselves closely to prayer, and to the ministry of the word.
Eswona, echigenderera mwisabhwa no musango gwa Nyamuanga.”
5 And what was said pleased the whole multitude. And they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit, and Philip, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicolaus a proselyte of Antioch,
Inyaika yebhwe nikonderesha likofyanya ryona. Kurwejo, mbamusola Stefano, omunu oyo ejuye elikirisha no Mwoyo Omweru, na Filipo, Prokoro, Nikanori, Timoni, Parmena, na Nikolao, omuchuguki okusoka Antiokia.
6 whom they set before the apostles; and when they had prayed, they laid their hands on them.
Abhekirisha mbabhaleta abhanu bhanu imbele ya jintumwa, mbasabhwa na mbamara mbabhatelako amabhoko gebhwe.
7 And the word of God increased; and the number of the disciples in Jerusalem was greatly enlarged; and a great multitude of the priests were obedient to the faith.
Kurwejo, omusango gwa Nyamuanga gwasuganile; no bhukumi bhwa bheigisibhwa mbukanya okwiyongesha eyo Yerusalemu; no bhukumi bhwanfu bhwa bhabhambasi mbalamila elikirisha.
8 And Stephen, full of grace and power, wrought great wonders and signs among the people.
Na Stefano, oyo ejuye echigongo na managa, aliga nakora ebhiruguro ne bhibharikisho bhyanfu mubhumwi bhwa bhanu.
9 But some of those who belonged to the so-called synagogue of the Freedmen, and of the Cyrenaeans and Alexandrians, and of those from Cilicia and Asia, arose and disputed with Stephen;
Mbe nawe ao mbemuka abhanu abhandi bhali bhayemba bha lisinagogi ndibhilikirwa lisinagogi rya Mahuru, ne rya Bhakirene ne rya Bhaeskanderia, na bhandi okusoka Kilikia na Asia. Abhanu bhanu bhaliga mbabhushanya na Stefano.
10 and they were not able to resist the wisdom and the Spirit with which he spoke.
Mbe nawe, bhatatulire okubhambashanya no bhwengeso no Mwoyo ogwo Stefano aliga nakorera okuroma.
11 Then they suborned men, who said, We have heard him speak blasphemous words against Moses, and God.
Mbamara mbakongya abhanu okuroma imbisike ati, “Chamongwa Stefano naroma emisango jo kugaya obhukumi bhwa Musa no bhwa Nyamuanga.”
12 And they stirred up the people, and the elders, and the scribes, and came upon him, and seized him, and brought him to the council,
Mbabhayatika abhanu, abhakaruka, na bhandiki, no kumulubha Stefano, mbamugwata, no kumusila imbele ya libharaja.
13 and set up false witnesses, who said, This man ceaseth not to speak words against the holy place, and the Law.
Mbaleta abhabhambasi bho rulimi, abho bhaikire, “omunu unu atakusiga kwaika emisango emibhibhi jitasikene ne chalo chinu echeru ne bhiragiro.
14 For we have heard him say, This Jesus the Nazarene will destroy this place, and change the customs which Moses delivered to us.
Kwo kubha chamunguwe naika ati Yesu unu wa Nazareti kanyamula orukiji lunu no kuyindura ebhwitonde bhinu chayanilwe na Musa.”
15 And all that sat in the council, looking steadily upon him, saw his face like the face of an angel.
Bhuli umwi oyo aliga ali mwibharaja, nalosha ameso gaye okumurorera Stefano, mbabhurora obhusu bhwaye bhuli nko bhwa malaika.
