Acts 6
1 Now in those days, when the number of the disciples was multiplying, a complaint arose from the Hellenists against the Hebrews, because their widows were neglected in the daily service.
Henu katika magono agha, idadi jhe bhanafunzi jhijhogeseka, lalamiko lya bhayahudi bha kiyunani lyajhandili dhidi jha Baebrania kwa ndabha bhajane bha bhene bhajhela bhiyebhelibhwa mu mgao bhwa khila ligono bhwa kyakulya.
2 The twelve summoned the multitude of the disciples and said, “It is not appropriate for us to forsake the word of God and serve tables.
Mitume kumi ni bhabhele bhabhakutili kusanyiku lyoha lya bhanafunzi ni kujobha, “Sahihi lepi kwa tete kulileka lilobhi lya K'yara ni kuhudumila pa meza.
3 Therefore, select from among you, brothers, seven men of good report, full of the Holy Spirit and of wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business.
Kwa hiyo ndongo, muchagulayi bhagosi saba, kuhomela miongoni mwa muenga bhanu bhema, bhabhamemili roho ni hekima ambabho twibhwesya kubhakabidhi huduma ejhe.
4 But we will continue steadfastly in prayer and in the ministry of the word.”
Ni tete tubeta kujhendelela mu maombi ni mu huduma jha lilobhi.”
5 These words pleased the whole multitude. They chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit, Philip, Prochorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, and Nicolaus, a proselyte of Antioch,
Hotuba jha bhene jhabhupendisi mkutano bhuoha. Hivyo bhakan'chagula stefano, munu jha ojhe ni imani ni Roho mtakatifu, ni Filipo, Prokoro, Nikanori, Timoni, Parmena, na Nikolai, mwongofu kuhoma Antiokia.
6 whom they set before the apostles. When they had prayed, they laid their hands on them.
Bhaumini bhabhaletili bhanu abha mbele jha bhamitume, bhabhas'okili ni baadaye bhada bhabhekela mabhoko gha bhene.
7 The word of God increased and the number of the disciples greatly multiplied in Jerusalem. A great company of the priests were obedient to the faith.
Hivyo, lilobhi lya K'yara liaenili ni idadi jhe bhanafunzi, jhajhongesiki, okho Yerusalemu; ni idadi mbaha jha makuhani bhakaitii imani.
8 Stephen, full of faith and power, performed great wonders and signs among the people.
Ni Stefano, jhaamemili neema ni nghofu, akifanya maajabu ni ishara mbaha miongoni mwa bhanu.
9 But some of those who were of the synagogue called “The Libertines”, and of the Cyrenians, of the Alexandrians, and of those of Cilicia and Asia arose, disputing with Stephen.
Lakini apu bhajhinuiki baadhi jha bhanu bhafuasi bha sinagogi lya likutibhweghe sinagogi lya mahuru, ni la Bhakerene ni la Bhaeskandaria, ni baadhi kuhoma Kilikia ni Asia. Bhanu abha bha jhele bhihojiana ni Stefano.
10 They weren’t able to withstand the wisdom and the Spirit by which he spoke.
Lakini bbwabhwesilepi kusindana ni hekima sya Roho ambajho Stefano ajhe itumila mu malongesi.
11 Then they secretly induced men to say, “We have heard him speak blasphemous words against Moses and God.”
Kisha bhabhashawishi baadhi jha bhanu kwa siri kujobha, “Tup'eliki Stefano ilongela malobhi gha kufuru dhidi jha Musa ni dhidi jha K'yara.”
12 They stirred up the people, the elders, and the scribes, and came against him and seized him, then brought him in to the council,
Bhabhashurutishi bhanu, bhaseya, ni bhaandishi, ni kun'dotela Stefano bhakan'kamula ni kundeta mbele jha baraza.
13 and set up false witnesses who said, “This man never stops speaking blasphemous words against this holy place and the law.
Bhakabhaleta mashahidi bha bhudesi, bhabhajobhili, “Munu ojho ilekalepi kujobha malobhi manofulepi dhidi jha lieneo ele takatifu ni sheria.
14 For we have heard him say that this Jesus of Nazareth will destroy this place, and will change the customs which Moses delivered to us.”
Kwani tup'eliki ijobha kujha ojho Yesu ghwa Nazareth ibeta kupa haribu mahali apa ni kusibadilisya desturi sya tukabisibhu ni Musa.”
15 All who sat in the council, fastening their eyes on him, saw his face like it was the face of an angel.
Khila mmonga jha ajhe mu baraza, akajhelekesya mihu gha muene kundanga Stefano, nabhane bhakaubhona uso bhwa muene bhwajhele kama bhwa malaika.
