Acts 7
1 Then said the high priest, Are these things so?
Basa ma malangga monaeꞌ agama Yahudi natane Stefanus nae, “Ara kalaak ho naa, tebꞌe, do hokoꞌ?”
2 And he said, Men, brethren, and fathers, hearken; The God of glory appeared to our father Abraham, when he was in Mesopotamia, before he dwelt in Haran,
Stefanus nataa nae, “Amaꞌ no toronoo nggare! Rena au dei. Dalahulu na, hita baꞌi na Abraham nda feꞌe lao hela kambo na sa, te Lamatualain mana seliꞌ, natudꞌu ao na neu e. Ana parenda e nae, ‘Lao hela nusa ma ia, ma bobꞌonggi mara. Lao leon, misiꞌ nusaꞌ esa dei fo au utudꞌu neu nggo!’ Naa de baꞌi Abraham lao mia rae Mesopotamia, fo lali nisiꞌ kota Haran.
3 And said to him, Depart from thy country, and from thy kindred, and come into the land which I shall show thee.
4 Then he came from the land of the Chaldeans, and dwelt in Haran: and from there, when his father was dead, he removed him into this land, in which ye now dwell.
No taꞌo naa, ana lao hela atahori Kasdim ra nusa na, de lali nisiꞌ kota Haran. Ama bꞌonggi na mate ma, Lamatualain no e nisiꞌ nusaꞌ Kanaꞌan. Nusaꞌ Kanaꞌan ia, rae fo amaꞌ ra ro toronooꞌ ra leoꞌ ia.
5 And he gave him no inheritance in it, no, not so much as to set his foot on: yet he promised that he would give it to him for a possession, and to his offspring after him, when as yet he had no child.
Leleꞌ naa Lamatualain nda banggi rae hangga esa saꞌ boe fo dadꞌi baꞌi Abraham pusaka na sa. Te Lamatualain helu nae dei fo fee rae ia neu baꞌi Abraham tititi-nonosi nara fo dadꞌi rae pusaka. Te leleꞌ naa baꞌi Abraham nda feꞌe ma anaꞌ sa.
6 And God spoke in this way, That his offspring should sojourn in a foreign land; and that they should bring them into bondage, and oppress them four hundred years.
Te Lamatualain olaꞌ no e nae, ‘Tititi-nonosi mara dei fo leo sia atahori feaꞌ ra nusa na. Boe ma atahori naa ra tuni-ndeni se, losa tao se dadꞌi ata nara ma tao se nda maloleꞌ sa losa too natun haa.
7 And the nation to whom they shall be in bondage will I judge, said God: and after that they shall come forth, and serve me in this place.
Dei fo au huku-doki hatahori mana tao tititi-nonosi mara dadꞌi ate. Boe ma tititi-nonosi mara lao hela nusaꞌ naa, ma baliꞌ risiꞌ rae Kanaꞌan ia fo hule-oꞌe roꞌe makasi neu Au.’
8 And he gave him the covenant of circumcision: and so Abraham begat Isaac, and circumcised him the eighth day; and Isaac begat Jacob; and Jacob begat the twelve patriarchs.
Lamatualain olaꞌ basa ma, Ana tao hehelu-fufuliꞌ no sunat fo dadꞌi bukti oi Abraham se dadꞌi Lamatualain atahori Na ena. Naa de, leleꞌ Abraham ana na Isak, feꞌe fai falu, ana sunat e. Basa de Isak sunat ana na Yakob. Yakob o sunat ana tou ka sanahulu rua nara, leleꞌ ara feꞌe fai beꞌe faluꞌ. Basa se ia ra, hita atahori Yahudi ra bei-baꞌi nara.
9 And the patriarchs, moved with envy, sold Joseph into Egypt: but God was with him,
Lao esa ma, hita bei-baꞌi nara rala nara mera mbali odi nara Yusuf. De ara seo e dadꞌi ate sia rae Masir. Te Lamatualain nda lao hela e sa.
10 And delivered him from all his afflictions, and gave him favour and wisdom in the sight of Pharaoh king of Egypt; and he made him governor over Egypt and all his house.
Ana mboꞌi e mia basa sususaꞌ ra, ma fee ne mahineꞌ fo nahine dalaꞌ naeꞌ. Huu naa, mane Masir a sue e, de soꞌu e dadꞌi lima onan sia rae Masir. Ana o toꞌu koasa sia maneꞌ a ume panggat na.
11 Now there came a famine over all the land of Egypt and Canaan, and great affliction: and our fathers found no sustenance.
Basa naa ma fai ndoes nema laꞌe rae Masir ma rae Kanaꞌan. Fai ndoes, naseliꞌ tebꞌe, de atahori hetar susasona sia bee-bꞌee. Naa de hita bei-baꞌi nara nda hambu raa saa saꞌ boe.
12 But when Jacob heard that there was grain in Egypt, he sent out our fathers first.
Te baꞌi Yakob rena oi nanaat sia rae Masir. Boe ma ana denu ana nara, fo hita bei-bai nara, reu hasa nanaat sia naa.
13 And at the second time Joseph was made known to his brethren; and Joseph’s kindred was made known to Pharaoh.
Ara hasa basa ma, ara baliꞌ. Ara raa hendi basa nanaat ra ma, Yakob denu se reu hasa seluꞌ sia Masir. Dei de Yusuf feꞌe nafadꞌe se nae, eni sira odꞌi bonggi na. Ma fee mane Masir a nahine se.
14 Then Joseph sent, and called his father Jacob to him, and all his kindred, seventy and five souls.
Basa naa ma, Yusuf noꞌe ama na no odꞌi-aꞌa nara lali Masir reu. Basa se atahori hitu nulu lima.
15 So Jacob went down into Egypt, and died, he, and our fathers,
De Yakob se lali Masir reu. Basa de, hita bei-baꞌi nara mate mia naa.
16 And were carried over into Shechem, and laid in the sepulchre that Abraham bought for a sum of money of the sons of Emmor the father of Shechem.
Dꞌoo na seli dei de, ara rendi baliꞌ bei-baꞌiꞌ ra rui nara risiꞌ kambo Sikem. Ara raꞌoi ruiꞌ naa ra sia mamana rates fo maꞌahulu na baꞌi Abraham hasa mia Hemor tititi-nonosi nara.”
17 But when the time of the promise drew near, which God had sworn to Abraham, the people grew and multiplied in Egypt,
Stefanus olaꞌ nakandoo nae, “Basa ia ra dadꞌi, huu Lamatualain helu basa nae, dei fo Eni fee mamanaꞌ naa neu Abraham dadꞌi rae pusaka. Deka fai fo Lamatualain natetuꞌ helu-fuli Na naa, hita atahori Yahudi ra boe ramaheta sia rae Masir ena.
18 Till another king arose, who knew not Joseph.
Leleꞌ naa, mane feuꞌ sa toꞌu parendaꞌ sia Masir. Te nda nahine Yusuf sa.
19 The same dealt treacherously with our kindred, and oppressed our fathers, so that they cast out their young children, to the end they might not live.
Maneꞌ naa tabꞌu-roroo hita atahori nara. Ma ana tuni-ndeni hita bei-baꞌi nara. Ana o parenda se no deres fo nggari hendi ana mana bꞌonggi feu nara, fo ara mate.
20 In which time Moses was born, and was exceeding fair, and nourished in his father’s house three months:
Leleꞌ naa, baꞌi Musa ina na bonggi e. Aꞌo na meulau na seli. Ama-ina na nda tungga maneꞌ a parenda na sa. Ara raꞌaboi raꞌafuniꞌ e sia ume losa fula telu.
21 And when he was cast out, Pharaoh’s daughter took him up, and nourished him for her own son.
Basa ma ara nda afiꞌ raꞌafuniꞌ rala e sia ume sa ena, de mboꞌi hendiꞌ e. Te mane Masir ana feto na nita e, de naꞌabꞌoi e onaꞌ ana bonggi na.
22 And Moses was learned in all the wisdom of the Egyptians, and was mighty in words and in deeds.
Naa de atahori Masir ra ranori sira mahine nara basa se neu Musa. De ana dadꞌi atahori manaseliꞌ, mahineꞌ ma masiꞌet boe.
23 And when he was full forty years old, it came into his heart to visit his brethren the children of Israel.
Musa too haa nulu boe ma, ana nae neu nahine atahori Israꞌel nara.
24 And seeing one of them suffer wrong, he defended him, and avenged him that was oppressed, and smote the Egyptian:
Ana neu ma nita atahori Masir esa momoko atahori Israꞌel sa. Ana neu tulun eni atahori na, ma nisa atahori Masir a.
25 For he supposed his brethren to understand that God by his hand would deliver them: but they understood not.
Ana duꞌa nae neꞌo atahori nara bubꞌuluꞌ Lamatualain denu eni, fo neu tulu-fali se mia sususaꞌ. Te ara nda feꞌe bubꞌuluꞌ sa.
26 And the next day he showed himself to them as they were fighting, and would have constrained them to be at peace again, saying, Sirs, ye are brethren; why do ye wrong one to another?
Mbila ma, Musa neu seꞌu seluꞌ atahori nara. Ana nita atahori nara rua rafetu. De ana sobꞌa nadꞌameꞌ ruꞌa se nae, “Wee! Hei ruꞌa nggi, odꞌi-aꞌa. Te taꞌo bee de mifetu taꞌo ia?”
27 But he that did his neighbour wrong thrust him away, saying, Who made thee a ruler and a judge over us?
Te atahori mana momoko nonoo na timba baꞌi Musa nisiꞌ suuꞌ neu, de nae, ‘Seka soꞌu nggo dadꞌi hai malangga ma? Ma seka soꞌu nggo dadꞌi hai mana maꞌetuꞌ dedꞌeat ma?
28 Wilt thou kill me, as thou didst the Egyptian yesterday?
Mbei ma ho mae misa au, onaꞌ ho misa atahori Masir a afis a, do?’
29 Then Moses fled at this saying, and was a stranger in the land of Midian, where he begat two sons.
Musa rena taꞌo naa, ma ana fela lao hela Masir. Ana neu leo sia atahori Median ra nusa na. Basa ma, ana sao sia naa, de bonggi ana touꞌ rua.
30 And when forty years had passed, there appeared to him in the wilderness of mount Sinai an angel of the Lord in a flame of fire in a bush.
Too haa nulu boe ma, Musa nisiꞌ mamana madꞌaꞌ esa deka no leteꞌ sa, naran lete Sinai. Sia naa Lamatualain ate Na esa mia sorga neu nandaa no e mia ai sia hau anaꞌ sa rala. Hau a nenelalanggeꞌ, te nda kadꞌe sa.
31 When Moses saw it, he wondered at the sight: and as he drew near to behold it, the voice of the Lord came to him,
Musa nita ma, ana ndii-ndiiꞌ a. Ana neu deka fo nae nahine saa sia naa. Aiboiꞌ ma, ana rena Lamatualain olaꞌ mia ai rala nae,
32 Saying, I am the God of thy fathers, the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. Then Moses trembled, and dared not behold.
‘Au ia, bei-baꞌi mara Lamatualain na. Baꞌim Abraham, Isak, ma Yakob beꞌutee neu Au.’ Musa rena ma, ana namatau de ao na nggeꞌe-nggeꞌe, ma nda nambarani botiꞌ mata na fo mete hau mana lalanggeꞌ naa sa.
33 Then said the Lord to him, Put off thy shoes from thy feet: for the place where thou standest is holy ground.
Boe ma Lamatualain olaꞌ seluꞌ nae, ‘We Musa! Ho ririi sia rae meumareꞌ. De olu hendi laopei ma!
34 I have seen, I have seen the affliction of my people who are in Egypt, and I have heard their groaning, and am come down to deliver them. And now come, I will send thee into Egypt.
Seꞌu te mae Au liliiꞌ Au atahori Israꞌel ngga sia Masir a. Hokoꞌ! Au feꞌe usunedꞌa se. Au bubꞌuluꞌ doidꞌoso nara ma rena hara hule-oꞌe nara. De Au ae mboꞌi se. Uma dei! Au ae denu baliꞌ nggo Masir muu.’
35 This Moses whom they refused, saying, Who made thee a ruler and a judge? the same did God send to be a ruler and a deliverer by the hand of the angel who appeared to him in the bush.
No taꞌo naa, Lamatualain natudꞌu ao Na mia ai rala ma parenda Musa fo baliꞌ Masir neu. Lamatualain dudꞌu e neu mboꞌi atahori Israꞌel mia doidꞌoso nara. Musa ia, fo maꞌahulu na atahori ra ratane rae, ‘Seka soꞌu nggo dadꞌi hai malangga ma?’ Ia naa Lamatualain mana soꞌu e!
36 He brought them out, after he had showed wonders and signs in the land of Egypt, and in the Red sea, and in the wilderness forty years.
Basa naa boe ma, Musa baliꞌ Masir neu. Ana tao mana dadꞌiꞌ ra seli sia naa. Basa ma, ana no atahori Israꞌel ra lao hela Masir. Ara lao tungga Tasi Mbilas, ma laoꞌ ndule mamana rouꞌ ra losa too haa nulu.
37 This is that Moses, who said to the children of Israel, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up to you of your brethren, like me; him shall ye hear.
Musa nafadꞌe atahori Israꞌel ra rae, ‘Dei fo Lamatualain soꞌu atahori sa sia hei taladꞌa ma, fo dadꞌi mana ola-ola Na, onaꞌ Ana soꞌu au ia.
38 This is he, that was in the church in the wilderness with the angel who spoke to him on the mount Sinai, and with our fathers: who received the living oracles to give to us:
Musa naꞌabꞌue no hita atahori Israꞌel nara sia mamana rouꞌ ra. Ana dadꞌi leleteꞌ fee hita bei-baꞌi nara ro Lamatualain ate Na mia sorga. Ate naa naꞌondaꞌ Lamatualain Dedꞌea-oꞌola Na neu Musa sia lete Sinai. Dedꞌea-oꞌolaꞌ naa, mana natudꞌu hita dala masodꞌaꞌ ndos.
39 Whom our fathers would not obey, but thrust him from them, and in their hearts turned back again into Egypt,
Mae taꞌo naa o, hita bei-baꞌi nara nda nau rena Musa sa. Ara nda simbo e sa, de rae baliꞌ Masir reu.
40 Saying to Aaron, Make us gods to go before us: for as for this Moses, who brought us out of the land of Egypt, we know not what is become of him.
Basa naa ma, ara reu kokoe Harun rae, ‘Amaꞌ odꞌi na Musa no hai lao hela rae Masir. Te ia naa, hai nda bubꞌuluꞌ ana sia bee saꞌ boe. Dadꞌi hai moꞌe fo amaꞌ tao fee hai sosonggoꞌ, fo ana mana nalalao hai.’
41 And they made a calf in those days, and offered sacrifice to the idol, and rejoiced in the works of their own hands.
De ara tao sosonggoꞌ, mata na onaꞌ sapi anaꞌ. Ara tunu-hotu banda ma feta-dote fee sosonggoꞌ a. Ara maꞌahee ro saa fo sira tao ao nara.
42 Then God turned, and gave them up to worship the host of heaven; as it is written in the book of the prophets, O ye house of Israel, have ye offered to me slain beasts and sacrifices for forty years in the wilderness?
Lamatualain nita taꞌo naa ma nasadꞌea se. De ara songgo sudꞌi a saa sia lalai onaꞌ relo, fulan, ma nduuꞌ. Onaꞌ o Lamatualain hela se taꞌo a naa ena. Naa ndaa no saa fo Lamatualain mana ola-ola nara suraꞌ mia dalahulu na rae, ‘We! Atahori Israꞌel re! To haa nulu hei laoꞌ ndule mamana rouꞌ ra, ma tunu-hotu banda fo beꞌutee neu Au, do, neu se?
43 Yea, ye took up the tabernacle of Molech, and the star of your god Remphan, figures which ye made to worship them: and I will carry you away beyond Babylon.
Hei nda koa-kio Au sa! Tungga fai hei songgo neuꞌ a sosonggo mara. Hei hiiꞌ a masoꞌ kalua nitu Molok ume sosonggo na. Hei o hii songgo nduuꞌ esa nitu na, naran Refan. Dadꞌi hei hiiꞌ a songgo neu saa fo hei tao ao mara! Dei fo Au nggari nggi miꞌidꞌodꞌooꞌ seli Babel mi’.
44 Our fathers had the tabernacle of testimony in the wilderness, as he had appointed, speaking to Moses, that he should make it according to the fashion that he had seen.
Stefanus olaꞌ nakandoo nae, “Lamatualain natudꞌu baꞌi Musa mamana Hule-Oꞌeꞌ esa rupa na. De Musa se rafefela Lalaat Hule-Oꞌeꞌ esa mia banda rouꞌ no temeꞌ tungga rupaꞌ naa. Basa naa ma, atahori Israꞌel ra reu hule-oꞌe neu Lamatualain sia naa. Mete ma ara lali mamanaꞌ, naa ara ofe Lalaat Hule-Oꞌeꞌ a, ara paꞌa e, de rendi e nisi ꞌ mamana feuꞌ. Losa naa, ara rafefela seluꞌ Lalaat a.
45 Which also our fathers that came after brought in with Joshua into the possession of the Gentiles, whom God drove out before the face of our fathers, to the days of David;
Dꞌodꞌoo ma, leleꞌ Yosua se ratati ro atahori feaꞌ sia nusa Kanaꞌan ma, Lamatualain oi hendi atahori naa ra. Basa de, Lamatualain babꞌanggi nusaꞌ naa neu hita bei-baꞌi nara. Leleꞌ ara rambas rala nusaꞌ naa, ara o rendi Lalaa Hule-Oꞌe a neu boe. Lalaat a nambariiꞌ sia naa losa mane Daud toꞌu parendaꞌ.
46 Who found favour before God, and desired to find a tabernacle for the God of Jacob.
Mane Daud ia, hule-oꞌe neu Lamatualain onaꞌ hita baꞌi Yakob na no ume isi nara. Daud tao namahoꞌo Lamatualain rala Na, de Lamatualain pala banggi fee ne papala-babꞌanggiꞌ. Daud o noꞌe Lamatualain fo eni mana nafefela Ume Hule-Oꞌe feuꞌ.
47 But Solomon built for him an house.
Te ana na Soleman mana nafefela Ume Hule-Oꞌe Huuꞌ a.
48 Yet the most High dwelleth not in temples made with hands; as saith the prophet,
Hita bubꞌuluꞌ tae, Lamatualain leo sia mamanaꞌ nanarun seli. Ana nda leo sia ume fo atahori taoꞌ sa. Huu maꞌahulu na, mana ola-ola Na esa suraꞌ hela rae,
49 Heaven is my throne, and earth is my footstool: what house will ye build for me? saith the Lord: or what is the place of my rest?
‘Lalai a, Au kadera parenda ngga. Raefafoꞌ a, Au ei tatabu ngga. Taꞌo bee de hei mae mifefela ume esa nandaa Au leo sia naa? Nda bisa sa.
50 Hath not my hand made all these things?
Te lalai no raefafoꞌ isi na, Au mana uꞌudꞌadꞌadꞌiꞌ!’”
51 Ye stiff-necked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, ye do always resist the Holy Spirit: as your fathers did, so do ye.
Stefanus olaꞌ seluꞌ, ma bua se nae, “Hei langga fatu mara seli! Onaꞌ atahori nda mana rahine Lamatualain sa, ma nda nau rena E sa. Hei akaꞌ labꞌan E, onaꞌ bei-baꞌiꞌ mara mana rasadꞌea E. Ia naa hei feꞌe mae labꞌan Dula-dale Meumare Na, do?
52 Which of the prophets have not your fathers persecuted? and they have slain them who showed before of the coming of the Just One; of whom ye have been now the betrayers and murderers:
Hei bei-baꞌi mara raꞌasususaꞌ Lamatualain mana ola-ola Nara. Mifadꞌe sobꞌa: mana ola-olaꞌ bee fo ara nda raꞌasususaꞌ e sa? Nda hambu sa, to? Maꞌahulu na mana ola-olaꞌ Nara rafadꞌe memaꞌ oi, Lamatualain nae haitua Atahori Meumare Na. Te hei bei-baꞌi mara risa Lamatualain mana ola-olaꞌ nara. Losa hei o sangga dalaꞌ pake atahori feaꞌ fo risa Lamatualain Atahori Meumare Na.
53 Who have received the law by the disposition of angels, and have not kept it.
Lamatualain ate Nara mia sorga o rendi basa atoran adat fo Lamatualain nae fee hita, te hei nda toe sa.”
54 When they heard these things, they were cut to the heart, and they gnashed on him with their teeth.
Atahori mana endoꞌ sia mamana nggero dedꞌeat a rena Stefanus oꞌola na, ma rahine rae ana fee salaꞌ neu se. De rala nara mera ma rangginggio.
55 But he, being full of the Holy Spirit, looked up steadfastly into heaven, and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God,
Te Lamatualain Dula-dale Meumare Na dai Stefanus ena. Ana oroꞌa mete lalai a. De nita Lamatualain mandete-masaꞌan, no Lamatuaꞌ Yesus nambariiꞌ sia Lamatualain bobꞌoa ona Na, sia mamana nenefee hadat naa.
56 And said, Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing on the right hand of God.
Ana olaꞌ nae, “Ama nggare. Au ita lalai a sii, ma Atahori Matetuꞌ a nambariiꞌ sia mamana nenefee hadat sia Lamatualain bobꞌoa ona Na.”
57 Then they cried out with a loud voice, and stopped their ears, and ran upon him with one accord,
Atahori mana endoꞌ sia naa ra rena ma, ara oꞌoo ndiki nara. Ara nggasi denu Stefanus oꞌoo bafa na. Basa se teteek fo rae aꞌame Stefanus.
58 And cast him out of the city, and stoned him: and the witnesses laid down their clothes at a young man’s feet, whose name was Saul.
Ara lea rendi e nisiꞌ kota a deaꞌ. Sakasi ra olu badꞌu nara, de fee ana soruꞌ esa nara na Saulus toꞌu. Ana dadꞌi sira mana natatale na. Boe ma reu mbia Stefanus.
59 And they stoned Stephen, calling upon God, and saying, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.
Ara feꞌe mbia Stefanus, ma ana randu nahereꞌ nae, “Lamatuaꞌ Yesus! Au fai ngga deka ena. Simbo mala au!”
60 And he kneeled down, and cried with a loud voice, Lord, lay not this sin to their charge. And when he had said this, he fell asleep.
Boe ma ana naꞌaloli napadilu neu lululangga na, de randu nahereꞌ seluꞌ nae, “Amaꞌ, afiꞌ fee se lemba-dꞌoi salaꞌ ia!” Basa ma, hahae na etu, ma ana mate.
