< Acts 7 >

1 The high priest said, “Are these things so?”

Ochai Inlaltak han Stephan kôm, “hi chong hi adik mo?” a tia.

2 He said, “Brothers and fathers, listen. The God of glory appeared to our father Abraham when he was in Mesopotamia, before he lived in Haran,

Stephan'n, “Ka lâibungngei ka pangei rangâi roi, ei richibul Abraham hah Haran khuoa ava om mân, Mesopotamia rama aom lâihan, roiinpuina Pathien hah a kôm ânlâra.

3 and said to him, ‘Get out of your land and away from your relatives, and come into a land which I will show you.’

‘Na ram le ni insûngmingei mâksan inla, ram nang ka la min mûna rang tieng se roh,’ a tipea.

4 Then he came out of the land of the Chaldaeans and lived in Haran. From there, when his father was dead, God moved him into this land where you are now living.

Masikin, a ram renga ânphêta, Harana om rangin a sea. Abraham a pa thi suole, ha mun renga atûna nin omna rama hin Pathien'n nangni a min thon ani.

5 He gave him no inheritance in it, no, not so much as to set his foot on. He promised that he would give it to him for a possession, and to his offspring after him, when he still had no child.

Pathien'n ite mun luorang, a ke sirna rang dôr luo pêk maka, aniatachu ama le anûka a richisuonpârngei tena pêk rangin ânkhâm ani. Pathien'n ha chong ânkhâm lâihan Abraham chu nâi la dôn mak.

6 God spoke in this way: that his offspring would live as aliens in a strange land, and that they would be enslaved and mistreated for four hundred years.

Pathien'n hi anghin a tia, ‘Nin richisuonpârngei chu mi rama khuolmi la nîng an ta, kum raza minli mi suoka omin asân dûkmintong la nîng an tih.

7 ‘I will judge the nation to which they will be in bondage,’ said God, ‘and after that they will come out and serve me in this place.’

Hannirese suoka tuong rang mingei chu keiman jêk ka ta; masuole jôk an tih, hi muna hin ni la biek an tih,’ a tia.

8 He gave him the covenant of circumcision. So Abraham became the father of Isaac, and circumcised him the eighth day. Isaac became the father of Jacob, and Jacob became the father of the twelve patriarchs.

Pathien'n Abraham kôm chonginkhitin an sertan rangin chong a pêk zoi. Masikin Abraham han a nâipasal Isaac hah sûn sari suoleh a ser a tanpea; Isaac'n a nâi Jakob a tanpe nôka, Jakob'n a nâi sômleinik ei richibulngei inthang ngei a tanpe nôka.

9 “The patriarchs, moved with jealousy against Joseph, sold him into Egypt. God was with him

“Jakob nâipasalngeiin an lâibungpa Joseph hah an narsa zoia, Egypt rama suok rangin an juora, hannirese, Pathien'n a ompuia.

10 and delivered him out of all his afflictions, and gave him favor and wisdom before Pharaoh, king of Egypt. He made him governor over Egypt and all his house.

Intak a tuongna murdia a san minjôka, Egypt rama Rêng Pharoah mitmua mi vârtak le midit omtak a min nia; Pharaoh han Egypt ram le a ina mi murdi chunga râiôt ni rangin a min changa.

11 Now a famine came over all the land of Egypt and Canaan, and great affliction. Our fathers found no food.

Hanchu Egypt le Canaan ram pumpuia mâitâm achula, asân intak an tuonga, ei richibulngei han sâk le nêk rang reng man khâimak ngeia.

12 But when Jacob heard that there was grain in Egypt, he sent out our fathers the first time.

Jakob'n Egypt rama bu aom ti a rietin chu a nâingei a tîra, ma hah an se phutna tak alei ni.

13 On the second time Joseph was made known to his brothers, and Joseph’s family was revealed to Pharaoh.

Avoinikna an se han Joseph han a lâibungngei le inrietna a lei thopui ngeia, Egypt Rêng han khom Joseph insungmingei a lei riet zoia.

14 Joseph sent and summoned Jacob his father and all his relatives, seventy-five souls.

Hanchu, Joseph han a pa Jakob le a insûngmingei murdi Egypt rama om rangin a koia, an rêngin sômsari-leirangnga anni.

15 Jacob went down into Egypt and he died, himself and our fathers;

Hanchu Jakob hah Egypt rama a va sea ha muna han ama le a nâipasalngei chu an thi zoia.

16 and they were brought back to Shechem and laid in the tomb that Abraham bought for a price in silver from the children of Hamor of Shechem.

A ruok hah Shechem khuo an hong chôia, Hamor rûingei renga Abraham'n suma a rochôk thâna han an phûm zoi.

17 “But as the time of the promise came close which God had sworn to Abraham, the people grew and multiplied in Egypt,

“Abraham kôma Pathien chongkhâm ahongtung rang zora ahong nâi tena ha mingei hah Egypt rama an hong pung zoia.

18 until there arose a different king who didn’t know Joseph.

Anûktaka Egypt rama han rêng dang Joseph riet loi ahong inlal zoia.

19 The same took advantage of our race and mistreated our fathers, and forced them to abandon their babies, so that they wouldn’t stay alive.

Ama han ei richibulngei hah a huong ngeia, dûk amintong ngeia, nâitesenngei ring loina rangin an suok suo pêntieng pai rangin rangrâtin chong a pêka.

20 At that time Moses was born, and was exceedingly handsome to God. He was nourished three months in his father’s house.

Ma zora tak han Moses ajuon zira nâitesen mêl satak a nia. A pa ina thân thum an donsuia,

21 When he was abandoned, Pharaoh’s daughter took him up and reared him as her own son.

an in renga an pai suo nûkin, Pharaoh nâinupangin a lâka a nâipasal rangin a vâia.

22 Moses was instructed in all the wisdom of the Egyptians. He was mighty in his words and works.

Moses hah Egypt rama vârna murdi an minchua, hanchu chongril theitak le sinthothei tak a hongni zoi.

23 But when he was forty years old, it came into his heart to visit his brothers, the children of Israel.

“Kum sômminli a hong nînchu, a mulung sûnga a sungsuok Israel champuingei kho angin mo an om mu rang nuomin ava pana.

24 Seeing one of them suffer wrong, he defended him and avenged him who was oppressed, striking the Egyptian.

A va sên chu mi inkhat Egypt min dûk amintong lâi ava mua, masikin a sanna, dûktongpu chunga han phûba a laka Egypt mipa hah a thata.

25 He supposed that his brothers understood that God, by his hand, was giving them deliverance; but they didn’t understand.

(Moses han, ama mangin Pathien'n a mingei mojôk atih ti a sungsuok ngeiin an riet mini tiin a bôka hannirese riet mak ngei.)

26 “The day following, he appeared to them as they fought, and urged them to be at peace again, saying, ‘Sirs, you are brothers. Why do you wrong one another?’

Anangtûka chu Isreal mi inik insuol lâitak ava tonga ava sel ngeia, ‘Rangâita u sûngsuokngei,’ lâibungrêng kêng nin ni, ithomo hima anga nin insuola? tiin min sûk ngei rang a bôka.

27 But he who did his neighbor wrong pushed him away, saying, ‘Who made you a ruler and a judge over us?

A theiloi uolpu han Moses hah a nampaia, ‘Kin chunga ruoipu le roijêkpu rangin tumo nang phun?’ a tia.

28 Do you want to kill me as you killed the Egyptian yesterday?’

‘Majâna Egypt mi na that angdên han ni that nôk rang no bôk mo?’ a tia.

29 Moses fled at this saying, and became a stranger in the land of Midian, where he became the father of two sons.

Ma chong hah a riet lehan, Moses a rota, Midian rama ava oma, mahan nâipasal inik a neia.

30 “When forty years were fulfilled, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in the wilderness of Mount Sinai, in a flame of fire in a bush.

“Kum sômminli avun suole chu, Sinai Muol ramchâr kôla chîmbuk akângna han vântîrton a kôm ânlâra.

31 When Moses saw it, he wondered at the sight. As he came close to see, the voice of the Lord came to him,

Moses'n a neinun mu hah a kamâm tataka, minthâr rang bôkin a va nâia, Pumapa rôl a rieta:

32 ‘I am the God of your fathers: the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.’ Moses trembled and dared not look.

‘Keima hih ni richibulngei Pathien, Abraham Pathien Isaac Pathien, Jakob Pathien hah ki ni,’ a lei tia, Moses hah ichîn ânnîka en ngam khâi maka.

33 The Lord said to him, ‘Take off your sandals, for the place where you stand is holy ground.

Pumapa'n, a kôm, ‘Ne kekokngei ha khek roh, nên dingna mun hah mun inthieng kêng.

34 I have surely seen the affliction of my people who are in Egypt, and have heard their groaning. I have come down to deliver them. Now come, I will send you into Egypt.’

Egypt rama ki mi omngei dengthei tie ku mua, an inrûmnangei khom ki rieta anni ngei minjôk rangin ku juong ani. Hong ta; Egypt rama nang lei tîr rong,’ a tia.

35 “This Moses whom they refused, saying, ‘Who made you a ruler and a judge?’—God has sent him as both a ruler and a deliverer by the hand of the angel who appeared to him in the bush.

“Ha Moses kôma ruoipu le roijêkpu rangin tumo nang phun? tia an makhal hah chîmbuk kângna taka vântîrton a kôma inlâr han a sanna, Pathien'n ama lele hah ruoipu le sanminjôkpu ni rangin ai tîr ani.

36 This man led them out, having worked wonders and signs in Egypt, in the Red Sea, and in the wilderness for forty years.

Ama han anni hah a ruoisuoka Egypt rama, tuipui sena, ramchâra kum sômminli sûng han Kamânruoi le sininkhêl tamtak thôn a ruoi ngeia.

37 This is that Moses who said to the children of Israel, ‘The Lord our God will raise up a prophet for you from among your brothers, like me.’

Moses hah Israel mingei kôm, ‘Pathien'n keima, mi tîr angin nin sûngsuokngei lâia om dêipu nangni la minchang pe atih,’ tipu hah ani.

38 This is he who was in the assembly in the wilderness with the angel that spoke to him on Mount Sinai, and with our fathers, who received living revelations to give to us,

Ama hah ani ramchâra Israel mi intûp ngei lâia oma; ei richibulngei kôma le Sinai muola a chongpuipu vântîrton kôma, eini mi pêk ranga Pathien chong ring lâkpu hah ani.

39 to whom our fathers wouldn’t be obedient, but rejected him and turned back in their hearts to Egypt,

“Hannirese ei richibulngei han a chong jôm nuom mak ngeia; ama hah an nampaia male Egypt ram tieng kîr nôk an nuoma.

40 saying to Aaron, ‘Make us gods that will go before us, for as for this Moses who led us out of the land of Egypt, we don’t know what has become of him.’

Masikin Aaron kôm, ‘Kin moton ruoipu rangin pathienngei mi sin pe roh. Moses Egypt ram renga mi ruoipu laka a thurchi reng riet khâi mak meh,’ an tia.

41 They made a calf in those days, and brought a sacrifice to the idol, and rejoiced in the works of their hands.

Masuole chu, ma ngei han serât chalte rimil an sina, a rimil hah sa thatin an bieka, male an kut suoka han mirit thonân ruolhoi an thoa an râi an minsâna.

42 But God turned away and gave them up to serve the army of the sky, as it is written in the book of the prophets, ‘Did you offer to me slain animals and sacrifices forty years in the wilderness, O house of Israel?

Hanchu, Pathien'n anni hah nûk a song ngeia, invâna ârsingei an biek theina rangin a rotsan ngeia, dêipu lekhabua: ‘Israel insung mingei! kum sômminli sûngin ramchâra han inbôlna sa thatin nin pêk ngâi hah keima ni mu ung.

43 You took up the tabernacle of Moloch, the star of your god Rephan, the figures which you made to worship, so I will carry you away beyond Babylon.’

Molech pathien puon-in nin chôia nin pathien le Rephan nin ârsi pathien; rimilngei hah chubaimûk rangin nin sin ngei hah an ni. Masikin Babylon khêl tieng nangni min tâng ki tih, tia ânziek anghan.’

44 “Our fathers had the tabernacle of the testimony in the wilderness, even as he who spoke to Moses commanded him to make it according to the pattern that he had seen;

“Ramchâra han ei richibulngeiin Pathien omna Puon-in an neia, ma in hah Pathien'n Moses kôm sin rangin a bea, a rimil a min mu lam taka sin ani.

45 which also our fathers, in their turn, brought in with Joshua when they entered into the possession of the nations whom God drove out before the face of our fathers to the days of David,

Ha ngei hah ei richibulngei khomin an hong dôn banga, Pathien'n ei richibulngei motona ai not pai nâmngei rama an luo lâihan Joshua lût zorân an lûtpui ani. David a zora tena a oma.

46 who found favor in the sight of God, and asked to find a habitation for the God of Jacob.

Ha David hah Pathien mitmua miditin a hong oma, Jacob Pathien ta ranga omna rang sin pe rangin a zonga.

47 But Solomon built him a house.

Hannirese, in hah chu Solomon'n kêng a sin pe zoi.

48 However, the Most High doesn’t dwell in temples made with hands, as the prophet says,

“Nikhomrese, Ânchungtak Pathien chu kuta sin in ngeia om ngâi mak; Dêipu'n,

49 ‘heaven is my throne, and the earth a footstool for my feet. What kind of house will you build me?’ says the Lord. ‘Or what is the place of my rest?

‘Pumapa'n, invân ke Rêngsukmun ania pilchung ke ke sirna ani. I anga in mo mi ni sin pe rang? Khotieng mo kên ngamna rang mun khom aom?

50 Didn’t my hand make all these things?’

Hi neinun murdi hih keima ki sin nimak mo?’

51 “You stiff-necked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, you always resist the Holy Spirit! As your fathers did, so you do.

“Khodôra mulung ngar mo nin ni! Mulungrîl le kuor in-ongloi sertanloingei anga, nin richibulngei tho ngâi lam angin Ratha Inthieng nin dem tita!

52 Which of the prophets didn’t your fathers persecute? They killed those who foretold the coming of the Righteous One, of whom you have now become betrayers and murderers.

Nin richibulngeiin, dêipungei lâia tumo dûkmintong loia an dar? midik tak juong rang lei juong ril Pathien tîrtonngei hah an thata, atûn nangni hih mi min sûrpu le a thatpu nin ni hi.

53 You received the law as it was ordained by angels, and didn’t keep it!”

Nangni hi Pathien balam, vântîrtonngeiin an juong thak muchaka jômloi ngei nin ni!” a tia.

54 Now when they heard these things, they were cut to the heart, and they gnashed at him with their teeth.

Roijêkpungei han Stephan chong hah an rietin chu an takasia, a chunga an rakam an tâta.

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,

Hannirese, Stephan hah Ratha Inthienga sip ania, invân tieng a en ngita, Pathien roiinpuina le a changtienga Jisua inding a mua.

56 and said, “Behold, I see the heavens opened and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God!”

“En ta u! invân in-ong ku mua, Pathien changtienga Miriem Nâipasal inding ku mu!” a tia.

57 But they cried out with a loud voice and stopped their ears, then rushed at him with one accord.

Hanchu, roijêkpungei han inringtakin an inieka, an kutngei leh an kuorngei an hîpa. Hanchu ha renghan a tieng an tâna.

58 They threw him out of the city and stoned him. The witnesses placed their garments at the feet of a young man named Saul.

Khopuilien sûng renga an mojôk paia, lungin an dênga rietpuipungei han ruotharte inkhat a riming Sual an tih kôm han an puon an mâka.

59 They stoned Stephen as he called out, saying, “Lord Jesus, receive my spirit!”

Lungin an dêng lâiin Stephan'n Pumapa a koia, “Pumapa Jisua ka Ratha lâk ta roh,” a tia.

60 He kneeled down and cried with a loud voice, “Lord, don’t hold this sin against them!” When he had said this, he fell asleep.

Khûk ânbila, rôl inringtakin ânieka, “Pumapa! hi an sietna hih riet pe ngei khâi no roh!” a tia. Ha chongbâi hah a ti suole chu a thi zoi.
