Ngalezonsuku inani labafundi lisanda, amaJuda esiGrikhi ayephakathi kwabo akhonona kulabo ababengamaHebheru ngoba abafelokazi babo babengananzwa nxa kusabiwa ukudla ngezinsuku zonke.
2 Enti, asomafoɔ dumienu no frɛɛ asuafoɔ no nyinaa ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Ɛnsɛ sɛ yɛgyae Onyankopɔn asɛnka kɔkyɛ aduane.

Umbono lo walithokozisa ixuku lonke. Bakhetha uStefane, indoda eyayigcwele ukukholwa loMoya oNgcwele; uFiliphu, uPhrokhorusi, uNikhanori, uThimoni, uPhamenasi loNikholasi wase-Antiyokhi, ikholwa elaphendukela enkolweni yesiJuda.
6 Wɔde saa nnipa yi kyerɛɛ asuafoɔ no maa wɔbɔɔ mpaeɛ de wɔn nsa guu wɔn so.
Amadoda la ethulwa kubapostoli, abakhuleka bawabeka izandla.
7 Nnipa pii gyee asɛm no diiɛ maa wɔn mu dodoɔ no ara bɛkaa wɔn ho. Yudafoɔ no mu pii nso gyee wɔn nkyerɛkyerɛ no diiɛ.
Ngakho ilizwi likaNkulunkulu lamemetheka. Inani labafundi eJerusalema landa ngokuphangisa, kwathi lenani elikhulu labaphristi layilandela inkolo.
8 Stefano a Onyankopɔn adom ne tumi ahyɛ no ma no yɛɛ anwanwadeɛ ahodoɔ bebree wɔ asafo no mu.
Kwathi uStefane, indoda eyayigcwele umusa kaNkulunkulu, lamandla, yenza izimanga lemimangaliso phakathi kwabantu.
9 Nanso, da koro bi nnipa bi a wɔfiri Yudafoɔ hyiadan bi a wɔfrɛ no “Ahofadifoɔ Hyiadan” no mu a wɔyɛ Yudafoɔ a wɔfiri Kirene ne Aleksandria ne wɔn a wɔfiri Kilikia ne Asia no ne Stefano gyee akyinnyeɛ.
Kwasekuvela umona usuka emalungeni eSinagogu yabaKhululekileyo (njengokubizwa kwakhona) bengamaJuda aseKhureni le-Alekizandriya kanye lasemikhonweni yaseSilisiya le-Ezhiya. Abantu laba basuka basebephikisana loStefane,
10 Nanso, Honhom no maa Stefano nyansa maa ɔde kasaeɛ a obiara antumi anka hwee.
kodwa behluleka ukumelana lenhlakanipho yakhe kumbe uMoya ayekhuluma ngawo.
11 Ɛno enti wɔka hyɛɛ nkurɔfoɔ bi ano sɛ, “Yɛtee sɛ ɔreka abususɛm atia Mose ne Onyankopɔn.”
Basebefunza abanye abantu amazwi ngasese ukuthi bathi, “Simzwile uStefane ekhuluma amazwi ahlambaza uMosi kanye loNkulunkulu.”
12 Wɔnam saa ɛkwan yi so maa nnipa no ne mpanin no ne Atwerɛsɛm no akyerɛkyerɛfoɔ no sɔre tiaa Stefano. Wɔbɛkyeree Stefano de no kɔɔ badwafoɔ anim.
Ngaleyondlela badungulula abantu labadala kanye labafundisi bomthetho. Bambopha uStefane bamletha phambi kweSanihedrini.
13 Afei, wɔde nnipa ba bɛdii adansekurumu tiaa Stefano sɛ, “Daa, saa onipa yi ka abususɛm tia yɛn asɔredan kronkron no ne Mose Mmara no.
Baveza ofakazi bamanga abafakaza bathi, “Indoda le kayikhawuli ukukhuluma kubi ngendawo engcwele langomthetho.
14 Yɛtee mpo sɛ ɔreka sɛ, saa Yesu Nasareni no bɛdwiri yɛn asɔredan no agu na wasesa yɛn amanneɛ a Mose de maa yɛn no!”
Ngoba sesimuzwe esithi uJesu lo waseNazaretha uzayibhidliza indawo le njalo aguqule imikhuba uMosi asipha yona.”
15 Nnipa a na wɔte badwa mu hɔ no nyinaa hwɛɛ Stefano anim, na wɔhunuiɛ sɛ nʼanim ayɛ te sɛ ɔsoro ɔbɔfoɔ anim.
Bonke ababehlezi phakathi kweSanihedrini bamnanzelela uStefane babona ukuthi ubuso bakhe babufana lobuso bengilosi.
