Kitetidayta Ootho 6

1 Ammanizayta qooday dari dari biza wode girkke biittafe yida ayhuda asati yudan diza ayhuda asa bolla garssara zigiretida, gasooykka wursio wode miza kaathi gishishe ammiista wudan yegontta aggida gishasiko.

Now, in these days, the number of the disciples being multiplied, there arose a murmuring of the Hellenists that is, Jews who used the Greek language against the Hebrews, because their widows were neglected in the daily ministrations.

2 Hessa gish nu taammane namm7u kittetidayti ammaniza harata issi bolla shishshidi “Nuni kaathi gishshetho ooson gellidi Xoossa qaala tammariso agganas beesena” gida.

And the twelve, having called the multitude of the disciples together, said, It is by no means agreeable, that we should leave the word of God to attend tables;

3 Hessa gish nu ishshato inte garssafe ciniccata, xiillo ayanan kummidaytane loo7o markkateeth dizayta lappun asi doorte, hayssa halafeteth nu isttas immana.

therefore, brethren, look out from among yourselves seven men of an attested character, full of spirit and wisdom, whom we may set over this business;

4 Nuni gidiko wossanine qaala yooton minnana.

we will constantly attend to prayer, and to the ministry of the word.

5 Istti gida yoyi siyidayta uhaaththaayssides, Ammanonine xiillo ayanan kummidayt Isxxifanose, Philliphosa, Phirisqqorossa, Niqqarona, ximmona, Pharmmenane Yudatethan gellida anxxokiya dere asa gidida Niqqolossa doorda.

And the speech was pleasing to all the multitude, and they elected Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit, and Philip, and Prochorus, and Nichanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicholas, a proselyte of Antioch;

6 Heyta ehidi kittetidayta sinthth shishshida, istikka ba kushshe istta bolla wothidi isttas wossida.

whom they presented before the Apostles; and they, having prayed, laid hands on them.

7 Xoossa qaalay aakki aakki bides, ammannizayta qooday yerussalamen dari dari bides, qeessistape darooti ammanida.

And the word of God grew; and the number of disciples in Jerusalem was greatly multiplied; and a great multitude of the priests became obedient to the faith.

8 He wode isxxifanosey Xoossa immotethanine wolqan kummid dereza garssan giitta malalisiza malatata ooththides.

And Stephen, full of grace and power, wrought many miracles, and great signs among the people.

9 Wozeetida Ayhudata woossa keeth geeteti xeeygetizasope yida asi gidida Qarenappene Iskkinddriyape; qassekka Kilqqiyappene Issiya awurajjatappe yida asatikka wuri Isxxifanosera marshetida.

Then there arose some of the synagogue, which is called that of the Libertines, and of the Cyrenians, and Alexandrians, and of them of Cilicia and Asia, disputing with Stephen.

10 Gido attin cinccatethan izi hasa7iza hasa7ane izan diza Ayana eqqistanas danda7ibeyteena.

And they were not able to resist the wisdom and spirit with which he spoke.

11 Hessa gish “Isxxifanosey Musene Xoossu cayishin nu siydos” giza asata guyera gigisida.

Then they suborned men to say, We heard him speak reproachful words against Moses, and against God.

12 Hessa wode dereza, dere cimmatane woga tammarisizayta denthethidanne Isxxifanose oyththidi dere duullatako shishshida.

And they stirred up the people, and the elders, and the scribes, and setting upon him, they dragged him away with them, and brought him to the Sanhedrim.

13 Iza bolla “Hayssi addezi Haysa geesha sooza bollane woga bolla cashsha qaala hasa7a mullekka aggibeyna.

And they set up false witnesses, who said, This man is incessantly speaking against this holy place, and the law:

14 Gasooykka haysi addezi Nazirete Yesussay hayssa Xoossa keethth dhayssana gishinnine nu mussepe ekkida woga laammana gi hasa7ishin nu siyidos” gi wordora markkatiza asata shishshi markkasida.

for we have heard him say, that this Jesus of Nazareth shall destroy this place, and shall change its customs, which Moses delivered to us.

15 Duullata uttida asay wuri Isxxifanose tiishi histti xeellishin iza ayfesoy isttas kittancha ayfeso millati beetides.

And all that sat in the Sanhedrim, fixing their eyes upon him, saw his countenance like the countenance of an angel.
