Ebhikolwa bhya Jintumwa 7
1 Omugabhisi omukuru naika, “amagambo ganu ni ge chimari?”
And the chief of the priests demanded if these (things) were so?
2 Stephano naika, “Bhaili na bhalata bhani, muntegereshe anye: Nyamuanga wa rikusho amusoromokeye lata weswe Abrahamu omwanya gunu aliga ali Mesopotamia, anu aliga achali kwikara Harani,
But he said, Men, brethren, and fathers, hear! The God of glory appeared to our father Abraham while he was between the rivers, he had not yet come to dwell in Charan,
3 'namubhwira, 'Soka mu chalo chao no luganda lwao ugende mu chalo chinu nilakwelesha'.
and said to him, Go forth from thy country and from (being) with the sons of thy family, and come to the land that I will show thee.
4 Eile nasoka mu chalo Bhukaldayo nekala Harani, okusoka ao, anu esemwene ejile afwa, Nyamuanga namuleta mu chalo chinu, bhekayemo wori.
Then went forth Abraham from the land of the Kaldoyee, and came and dwelt in Charan: and from thence, his father being dead, Aloha caused him to pass into this land in which you dwell to-day.
5 Atamuyanile chone chone kuti mugabho gwaye, litabheyeo ebhara ryo kutulao nolwo kuguru. Nawe Abrahamu namuraga omurago gwo kumuyana okuitunga insi anu aliga achali kwibhula omwana ati kayabhwa omwene no rwibhulo lwaye.
And (yet) he gave him no inheritance in it, nor a place of the feet, but he promised to give it to him for an heritage to himself and to his seed, while as yet he had not a son.
6 Nyamuanga aikile nage kutya, ati orwibhulo lwaye abhekara munsi yo bhugenyi, na lindi abhekasi bhendeyo abhabhakora kubha bhagaya bhebhwe no kubhakorera kubhibhi mu masinja ge myaka magana gana.
And Aloha spake with him, telling him that his seed should be a sojourner in a strange land, and that they would enslave and ill-treat them four hundred years.
7 Ka Nyamuanga naika ati, eniliramura liyanga linu elibhakora bhagaya, okusokerera ao abhamba okundamya mwi bhara linu.
And the nation whom they will serve (in) bondage will I judge, saith Aloha: and afterward they shall come forth and serve me in this place.
8 Namuyana Abrahamu liragano lyo okusalwa, ku lwejo Abrahamu nabha lata wa Isaka namusala ku rusiku lwa munana; Isaka nabha lata wa Yakobo, na Yakobo nabha lata wa bhasaja bheswe ekumi na bhabhili.
And he gave to him the covenant of circumcision. And then begat he Ishok, and circumcised him on the eighth day, and Ishok begat Jakub, and Jakub begat our twelve fathers.
9 Bhasaja bheswe nibhamukorera lifua Yusufu mbamugusha mu chalo cha Misiri, na Nyamuanga aliga ali amwi nage,
And these our fathers were incited against Jauseph, and sold him into Mitsreen. And Aloha was with him:
10 namukisha mu nyako jaye, namuyana obhwekisi no bhwengeso imbele ya Farao omukama wa Misiri. Farao namukora kubha mutungi inguru ya Misiri na inguru ya inyumba yae yone.
and he delivered him from all his afflictions, and gave him grace and wisdom before Pherun king of Mitsreen, and he appointed him prince over Mitsreen, and over all his house.
11 Mbe nibhao injara nene na jinyako nyafu mu chalo cha Misiri na Kanani, mbe bhalata bheswe bhatabhwene ebhiryo.
AND there was a famine and great affliction in all Mitsreen, and in the land of Kenaan, and our fathers had nothing to satisfy them.
12 Mbe nawe Yakobo ejile ongwa ati bhiliyo ebhiryo Misiri, nabharagirira bhalata bheswe ku lwo kwamba.
And when Jakub heard that there was corn in Mitsreen, he sent forth our fathers before.
13 Mu rugendo lwa kabhili Yusufu neyeresha ku bhaili bhaye, imbaga ya Yusufu nimenyekana ku Farao.
And when they had gone the second time, Jauseph made himself known to his brethren, and the family of Jauseph were made known unto Pherun.
14 Yusufu nabharagirira abhaili bhaye bhagende okumubhwira Yakobo lata webhwe agende Misiri, amwi no ruganda lwaye, obhukumi bhwebhwe abhanu makumi musanju ne tanu.
And Jauseph sent and brought his father Jakub and all his family, and they were in number seventy and five souls.
15 Ku lwejo Yakobo neka Misiri; neya nafwa omwene amwi na bhalata bheswe.
And Jakub went down into Mitsreen and died there; he and our fathers.
16 Nibhagegwa okugenda Shekemu mbasikwa mu chituro echo Abrahamu agulile ne bhibhara bhya jimpirya okusoka ku bhana bha Hamori eyo Shekemu.
And he was removed to Shechem, and laid in the sepulchre that Abraham bought with silver from the B'nai Chamur.
17 Akatungu kaliya ako omurago ogwo Nyamuanga alagire Abrahamu gwejire gwerira, abhanu bhaliga bheyongesishe eyo Misiri,
And when was come the time of that which Aloha promised with an oath unto Abraham, the people had multiplied and increased in Mitsreen
18 akatungu ako emukireyo omukama undi inguru ya Misiri, omukama unu atamumenyaga Yusufu.
until another king had arisen over Mitsreen, who knew not Jauseph,
19 Omukama oundi oyo nabhajiga abhanu bheswe no kubhakorera amabhibhi bhalata bheswe, no kubhesa abhana bhebhwe abharera korereki bhatabha bhaanga.
and he dealt fraudulently against our kindred, and shamefully entreated our fathers, and commanded that their children should be cast away, that they might not live.
20 Mu masinja ago Musa ebhuywe; aliga ali we kisi ku Nyamuanga, nalelwa mesi gasatu munyumba ya lata waye.
In that time Musha was born, and was beloved of Aloha, and was brought up three months in the house of his father.
21 Mu katungu kanu eselwe, omuyansha wa Farao namugega namulela lwo mwana waye.
And when he was outcast from his people, the daughter of Pherun found him, and brought him up unto her for a son.
22 Musa eigisibhwe ameigisho gone ge chi Misiri; aliga ali na managa mu kwaika ne bhikorwa.
And Musha was instructed in all the wisdom of the Mitsroyee, and was excellent in words (and) also in deeds.
23 Mbe nawe ejile akumisha myaka makumi gana, nongwa mu mwoyo gwaye okubhalibhatira abhaili bhaye, abhana bha Israeli.
And when he became a son of forty years, it arose upon his heart to visit his brethren the sons of Israel.
24 Ejire amurora omwisraeli nakorerwa amabhibhi, Musa namwimako nasubhya risungu kuyo aliga namwibhonera kwo kumubhuma Omumisiri:
And he saw one of the sons of his tribe treated with violence, and he avenged him, and did him justice, and he killed the Mitsroya who had offended him and
25 neganirisha ati abhaili bhaye abhamenya ati Nyamuanga kabhakisha no kubhoko kwaye, mbe nawe bhatamenyere.
hoped that his brethren, the sons of Israel, would understand that Aloha by his hand would give them deliverance; but they understood not.
26 Orusiku runu lwarubhire nagenda ku bhamwi bha Bhaisraeli bhanu bhaliga nibharwana; naregeja okubhagwatanya; naika ati, 'Bhamura, Emwe muri bhaili; kubhaki omurwana emwe bhenera kwa bhene?'
And the day after he appeared to them while they strove one with another: and he persuaded them to be pacified, saying, Men, you are brethren; why offend you one the other?
27 Mbe nawe unu amukaiye omwikashanya waye m/namusindika kura, naika ati, “Niga unu akukorere kubha mutungi no muramusi weswe?
But he who had offended his neighbour removed himself from him, and said to him, Who appointed thee over us a prince and a judge?
28 Awe owenda okunyita, lwa kutyo wameta Omumisiri ligoro?”
Seekest thou to kill me as thou killedst the Mitsroya yesterday?
29 Musa nabhirima ejile ongwa kutyo; nabha mugenyi munsi ya Midiani, ao abheye lata wa bhana bhabhili.
And Musha fled at that word, and became a sojourner in the land of Median, and there were to him two sons.
30 Jejire jaturao myaka makumi gana, malaika namusoromokera mwi bhara lye chima cha Sinai, mwi bhesi lyo muriro agati ya lisaka.
AND when forty years were there fulfilled to him, there appeared to him in the desert of Mount Sinai the angel of the Lord in a flame that burned in a bush.
31 Mu katungu kanu Musa ejire arora omuriro, narugura muno no kutang'ang'ara kulwe bhiroro ebhyo alorere, mbe nawe ejire alegeja okwirira yei korereki arore, obhuraka bhwa Katabhugenyi nibhumujako nibhwaika ati,
And while Musha looked, he wondered at the sight. And as he drew near to gaze, the Lord spake to him with the voice:
32 'Anye nanye Nyamuanga wa bhesomwana bhao, Nyamuanga wa Abrahamu, no wa Isaka, no wa Yakobo.' Musa nayarara atasubhire kurorayo.
I am the God of thy fathers, the God of Abraham and of Ishok and of Jakub. And Musha, trembling, dared not look upon the sight.
33 Latabhugenyi namubhwira, 'Nufure ebhirato bhyao, libhara linu wimereguyu ni bhara lyeru.
And the Lord said to him, Loose thy sandals from thy feet: for the ground on which thou standest is holy.
34 Nalorere jinyako ja bhanu bhani bhanu Misiri; enungwa okulwara kwebhwe, anye neka korereki nibhakishe; olyanu ija, nikutume awe Misiri.'
Seeing I have seen the affliction of my people who in Mitsreen, and his groaning I have heard, and I have descended that I may deliver them. And now come, I will send thee into Mitsreen.
35 Musa unu bhamuremere, omwanya gunu bhaikile ati, 'niga unu akukorere kubha mutungi no muramusi weswe?' Oyo niwe oyo Nyamuanga amutumire kwo kubhoko kwa malaika oyo amusoromokee Musa mwisaka.
This Musha whom they denied, when they said, Who appointed thee over us a prince and a judge? this, sent Aloha unto them a prince and a deliverer by the hand of the angel who appeared to him at the bush.
36 Musa abhatangasishe okusoka Misiri anu akorere amarebha ne bhibharikisho mu charo cha Misiri na munyanja ya Shamu, na mwibhara kwa masinja ga myaka makumi gana.
This brought them out, when he had wrought signs and wonders and mighty deeds in the land of Mitsreen, and at the Sea of Suph, and in the desert forty years.
37 Musa unu niwe abhabhwiriye abhana bha Israeli ati, 'Nyamuanga keja okwimusha omuragi okusoka mubhamwi bha bhaili bhanyu, omuragi lwanye.'
THIS is that Musha, who said to the sons of Israel, A Prophet will Aloha the Lord raise up unto you from your brethren, like me; him shall you hear.
38 Unu niwe omunu unu aliga ali mwikofyanya lya mwibhara na malaika unu aromere nage mu chima cha Sinai. Unu niwe omunu oyo aliga ali na bhalata bheswe, unu ni munu unu aramiye omusango gunu guri muanga no kuchiyana eswe.
This is he who was with the congregation in the desert, with the angel himself who spake with him and with our fathers at the mountain of Sinai; and he it was who received the words of life to give (them) to us.
39 Unu niwe omunu unu bhalata bheswe bharemere okumungwa; nibhamusindikira kura, na mumyoyo jebhwe nibhaindukira Misiri.
And our fathers willed not to give heed to him, but left him, and in their hearts turned back to Mitsreen,
40 Mu masinja ago nibhamubhwira Haruni, 'nuchikonjere ebhiungu bhinu bhilachitangasha. Musa oyo, aliga nachitangasha okusoka mu charo cha Misiri, chitakumenya jinu jamubhona.'
saying to Aharun, Make us alohee that may go before us, because this Musha, who brought us forth from the land of Mitsreen, we know not what is become of him.
41 Kutyo nibhakonja inana mu nsiku ejo na nibhasosha jisadaka ku chisusano echo nibhakondelwa kwo kubha ni milimu ja mabhoko gebhwe.
And he made them the calf in those days, and they sacrificed sacrifices to idols, and were delighted with the work of their hands.
42 Mbe nawe Nyamuanga abhainduye nabhayana bharamye jinyota ja murwire, lwa kutyo jandikilwe mu chitabho cha bharagi, 'Angu mwansosisishe anye jisadaka ja jintyanyi jinu mwabhagire mwi bhara mu masinja ge myaka makumi gana, inyumba ya Israeli?
And Aloha turned, and delivered them up to be worshippers of the hosts of heaven; as it is written in the book of the prophets, Forty years in the desert Victims or sacrifices did you offer to me, Sons of Israel?
43 Mwekirisishe liyema lya Moleki na inyota ya mungu refani, ebhisusano bhinu mwekonjee no kubhiramya ebhyo: mbe nawe enija obhasira arera kura Babeli.'
But you took up the tabernacle of Malkum, And the star of the god of Raphan, Images you have made to worship them; I will remove you beyond Babel.
44 Bhalata bheswe bhaliga bhali na liyema lyo kwikofyanyisha lwo bhubhambasi mwi bhara, lwa kutyo Nyamuanga aragirie anu aromere na Musa, ati akakonjere lwe chijejekanyo chinu alorere.
BEHOLD, the tabernacle of testimony of our fathers was in the desert, as He who spake with Musha had commanded to make it after the pattern which he had seen.
45 Linu ni yema linu bhalata bheswe, kwa masinja gebhwe, bhaleterwe mu charo na Joshua. Jinu jabhonekere mwisinja linu bhengiye okutunga liyanga linu Nyamuanga abhirimishe anu bhaliga bhachali kubhao bhalata bheswe. Jinu jabhee kutyo kukinga mu nsiku ja Daudi,
And this tabernacle also our fathers bringing brought in with Jeshu to the land which Aloha had given to them, an inheritance from those peoples whom he had expelled from before them, and it was carried until the days of David;
46 unu abhwene okwikirisibhwa mu meso ga Nyamuanga, nasabhwa okuyenja obhwikaro ku Nyamuanga wa Yakobo.
who found favour before Aloha, and asked to find a tabernacle for the God of Jakub.
47 Mbe nawe Selemani amumbakiye inyumba ya Nyamuanga.
But Shelemun builded the house.
48 Nolwo kutiyo unu ali inguru atakwikara mu nyumba jinu jumbakilwe na mabhoko; inu ni kutyo omuragi aikire,
But the Most High dwelleth not in the work of hands, as saith the prophet,
49 Orwire ni chitebhe chani cho bhukama, na insi ni bhara lyo kutako amaguru gani. Inyumba nisusana kutiki inu omunyumbakira? Kaika Omukama: amwi ni bharaki lyani lyo kwisishako omwoyo?
Heaven is my throne, And earth the footstool beneath my feet: What house will you build me? saith the Lord: Or what is the place of my rest?
50 Kutari kubhoko kwani kunu kukorere ebhinu bhinu bhyona?
Hath not my hand made all these?
51 Emwe abhanu bhe bhicha bhikomeye bhanu mutatenderwe emyoyo na matwi, bhuli katungu omumurema Omwoyo Omweru, omukora lwa kutyo bhesomwana bhakorere.
O, hardened of neck and uncircumcised in your hearts and in your hearing, you at all times against the Spirit of Holiness stand up; as your fathers, so you also.
52 Ni muragiki mu bharagi unu bhesomwana bhatamunyasishe? Bhabhetire abharagi bhone bhanu bhejire anu aliga achali kwija owo bhulengeresi, ka wolyanu mwabheye bharomesi bha niku na bheti bhaye,
For which of the prophets have not your fathers persecuted and slain? they who before announced the coming of the Righteous; him whom you delivered up and slew.
53 emwe abhanu bhanu mwaramiye echiragiro chiliya charagiriwe na malaika mbe nawe murema okuchigwata.
And you have received the law by the precept of angels. and have not kept it.
54 Anu abhe chinyanjo bhejire bhongwa amagambo ganu, nibharumwa mu myoyo jebhwe, nibhamugugunila ameno Stefano.
AND when they heard these they were filled with wrath in themselves, and they gnashed their teeth upon him.
55 Mbe nawe omwene ejuye Omwoyo Omweru, nararamira mu rwire nekeneke narora rikusho lya Nyamuanga, namurora Yesu emereguyu mu kubhoko kwo bhuryo kwa Nyamuanga.
And he, being full of faith and of the Spirit of Holiness, looked up to heaven, and saw the glory of Aloha, and Jeshu standing at the right hand of Aloha.
56 Stefano naika ati, “Rora narora orwire rwigukire, no Mwana wo Munu emereguyu mu kubhoko kwe bhuryo kwa Nyamuanga.”
And he said, Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing at the right hand of Aloha.
57 Mbe nawe abhe chinyanjo nibhayogana no bhuraka bhwa inguru, nibhasibhya amatwi gebhwe, nibhamubhirimira bhona amwi,
And they cried with a high voice, and stopped their ears, and rushed upon him, all of them,
58 nibhamwesa anja yo musi nibhamubhuma na mabhwiyi: abharoresi nibhafura emyenda jebhwe ja anja nibhatura mu maguru go musigaji oyo abhirikirwaga Sauli.
and seizing they brought him out of the city and stoned him. And they who witnessed against him laid their garments before the feet of a certain young man named Shaol.
59 Anu bhaliga nibhamubhuma amabhwiyi Stefano, agendeleye okumubhirikira Omukama naika ati, “Omukama Yesu, ramira omwoyo gwani.”
And they stoned Estephanos, (he) praying and saying, Our Lord Jeshu, receive my spirit.
60 Nafung'ama ebhiju no kubhirikira kwo bhuraka bhunene, “Omukama, utabhabharira echibhibhi chinu.” Ejile aika kutyo, nabhutura omwoyo.
And kneeling down, he cried with a high voice, and said, Our Lord, let not this sin arise against them. And when this he had said, he slept.
