Acts 7
1 Titia maha purohit pora hudise, “Etu kotha khan hosa ase?
Then said the high priest, Are these things so?
2 Titia Stephen koise, “Bhai khan aru baba khan, moi laga kotha huni bhi: Isor laga mohima baba Abraham logote ahise jitia tai Mesopotamia te thakise, tai Haran te nathaka age pora;
And he said, Men, brethren, and fathers, hearken; The God of glory appeared unto our father Abraham, when he was in Mesopotamia, before he dwelt in Charran,
3 aru taike koise, ‘Tumi laga mati aru ghor manu khan pora ulai jabi, aru moi jun jaga tumike dikha bo ta te jabi.’
And said unto him, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and come into the land which I shall shew thee.
4 Titia Abraham pora Chaldea laga desh chari kene Haran te thaki jaise; aru tai laga baba mora pichete, Isor pora taike etu jagate loi anise, jun jagate tumikhan etiya thaki ase.
Then came he out of the land of the Chaldæans, and dwelt in Charran: and from thence, when his father was dead, he removed him into this land, wherein ye now dwell.
5 Kintu Tai taike etu jaga diya nai, tai laga theng rakhibole bhi diya nai. Kintu Isor pora taike aru tai laga khandan ke, ekta jaga dibo koi kene kosom dise, tai laga bacha nathaka hoilebi.
And he gave him none 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 seed after him, when [as yet] he had no child.
6 Kintu Isor pora taike eneka koise, tai laga khandan khan dusra desh te alag manu hoi kene thakibo, aru etu jaga laga manu khan taikhan ke nokor bonai rakhibo aru charsoh saal tak bisi dukh dibo.
And God spake on this wise, That his seed should sojourn in a strange land; and that they should bring them into bondage, and entreat [them] evil four hundred years.
7 ‘Aru,’ Isor koise, ‘jun jati taikhan ke nokor banabo, utu jati khan ke moi bisar koribo, titia taikhan ulai ahi kene moike etu jagate mohima koribo.’
And the nation to whom they shall be in bondage will I judge, said God: and after that shall they come forth, and serve me in this place.
8 Titia Isor pora Abraham ke sunnot laga kosom dise, titia Abraham, Isaac laga baba hoise aru ath-dinte Isaac ke sunnot korise; aru Isaac pora Jacob laga baba hoise, aru Jacob pora baroh ta bacha paise aru etu khandan laga baba hoise.
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.
9 Kintu Joseph laga bhai khan tai uporte ke suku jolise, aru taike Egypt te bikiri kori dise; kintu Isor tai logote thakise.
And the patriarchs, moved with envy, sold Joseph into Egypt: but God was with him,
10 Aru Isor pora tai laga dukh sob pora bachai loise. Tai laga gyaan pora Egypt raja Pharaoh laga mon jiti loise, aru raja pora taike Egypt aru tai laga ghor uporte Governor bonai dise.
And delivered him out of 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.
11 Titia Egypt aru Canaan desh te akaal ahise, aru bisi dukh paise, aru amikhan laga baba khan khabole panai.
Now there came a dearth over all the land of Egypt and Chanaan, and great affliction: and our fathers found no sustenance.
12 Kintu jitia Jacob hunise Egypt te dhaan ase koi kene, tai amikhan laga baba khan ke ta te pathaise.
But when Jacob heard that there was corn in Egypt, he sent out our fathers first.
13 Aru dusra bar Joseph nijor bhai khan ke tai kun ase utu janibole dise, aru Pharaoh bhi Joseph laga ghor manu khan ke jani loise.
And at the second [time] Joseph was made known to his brethren; and Joseph’s kindred was made known unto Pharaoh.
14 Titia Joseph tai laga kokai khan logote manu pathai kene Jacob aru tai logote pachatar jonke loi kene Egypt te anibole pothaise.
Then sent Joseph, and called his father Jacob to [him], and all his kindred, threescore and fifteen souls.
15 Titia Jacob Egypt te jaise, Jacob aru amikhan laga baba khan sob ta te morise.
So Jacob went down into Egypt, and died, he, and our fathers,
16 Aru taikhan laga mora gaw to Shechem te loijai kene kote Abraham pora Hamor bacha khan logote poisa dikene mati kini rakhise ta te kobor dise.
And were carried over into Sychem, and laid in the sepulchre that Abraham bought for a sum of money of the sons of Emmor [the father] of Sychem.
17 Jitia Isor pora Abraham logote kosom khai kene rakha homoi ahise- etu kosom juntu Isor he Abraham logote korise- Egypt te manu bisi hoi jaise.
But when the time of the promise drew nigh, which God had sworn to Abraham, the people grew and multiplied in Egypt,
18 Joseph ke najana ekjon raja Egypt te ulaise.
Till another king arose, which knew not Joseph.
19 Tai amikhan laga manu ke thogai dise, aru jiman notun jonom huwa bacha khan ase taikhan ke ulai anibole koise ta te taikhan eitu khan ke jinda thaki bole nadibo.
The same dealt subtilly with our kindred, and evil entreated our fathers, so that they cast out their young children, to the end they might not live.
20 Etu homoi te Moses jonom hoise; tai Isor nimite bisi sundur thakise, aru taike tin mohina tak tai baba ghor te rakhise.
In which time Moses was born, and was exceeding fair, and nourished up in his father’s house three months:
21 Kintu jitia taike bahar te rakhise, Pharaoh laga swali pora taike loi kene nijor bacha nisena palise.
And when he was cast out, Pharaoh’s daughter took him up, and nourished him for her own son.
22 Aru Moses ke Egypt laga gyaan aru niyom sob sikhai dise, aru tai kotha aru kaam te bhi bisi takot thakise.
And Moses was learned in all the wisdom of the Egyptians, and was mighty in words and in deeds.
23 Kintu jitia tai chalis saal hoi jaise, tai nijor Israel bhai khan ke lok kori bole mon korise.
And when he was full forty years old, it came into his heart to visit his brethren the children of Israel.
24 Aru ek din, jitia Israel manu ekjon ke dukh pai thaka dikhise, Moses etu manu ke modot kori bole jaise, aru etu dikhi kene Moses pora etu Egypt manu ke morai dise.
And seeing one [of them] suffer wrong, he defended [him], and avenged him that was oppressed, and smote the Egyptian:
25 Tai bhabisele, tai laga bhai khan bujhi bo paribo, Isor he taikhan ke bachai dibo nimite taike pathaise, kintu taikhan etu bujhi bo para nai.
For he supposed his brethren would have understood how that God by his hand would deliver them: but they understood not.
26 Aru dusra dinte duijon Israel manu jhagara kori thaka homoi te tai ponchise, aru ekjon-ekjon logote shanti rakhibole koise, ‘Bhai khan, kele nijor bhai kokai majote jhagara kori ase?’
And the next day he shewed himself unto them as they strove, and would have set them at one again, saying, Sirs, ye are brethren; why do ye wrong one to another?
27 Kintu jun tai usorte manu logot jhagara kori thakise, Moses ke pichete dhakai kene, koise, ‘Tumike kun pora amikhan uporte hukum chola bole dise?
But he that did his neighbour wrong thrust him away, saying, Who made thee a ruler and a judge over us?
28 Juwa kali ekjon Egypt manu ke morai diya nisena, moike bhi mora bole mon ase?’
Wilt thou kill me, as thou diddest the Egyptian yesterday?
29 Etu kotha huni kene Moses polai jaise, aru Median laga desh te alag desh manu hoi kene thaki jaise, aru ta te tai duita chokra bacha laga baba hoi jaise.
Then fled Moses at this saying, and was a stranger in the land of Madian, where he begat two sons.
30 Aru jitia chalis saal paar hoi jaise, Probhu laga sorgodoth Sinai Pahar laga jongol te jui nisena kori kene tai usorte ahise.
And when forty years were expired, there appeared to him in the wilderness of mount Sina an angel of the Lord in a flame of fire in a bush.
31 Jitia Moses jui dikhise, tai etu dikhi kene bisi asurit hoise, aru usor pora sabole jaise, titia Probhu laga awaj hunise.
When Moses saw [it], he wondered at the sight: and as he drew near to behold [it], the voice of the Lord came unto him,
32 ‘Moi tumi laga baba khan laga Isor ase, Abraham, Isaac aru Jacob laga Isor.’ Titia Moses kapi kene bhoi pora ta te phale sabole para nai.
[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 durst not behold.
33 Titia Probhu taike koise, ‘Tumi laga theng pora juta ulai rakhi dibi, kelemane kuntu jagate tumi khara ase etu jaga Pobitro ase.
Then said the Lord to him, Put off thy shoes from thy feet: for the place where thou standest is holy ground.
34 Ami laga manu khan Egypt te dukh kori thaka Moi dikhise, aru taikhan kandi thaka awaj hunise, aru taikhan ke bacha bole nimite Moi ahise; etu karone ahibi, Moi tumike Egypt te pathabo.’
I have seen, I have seen the affliction of my people which is in Egypt, and I have heard their groaning, and am come down to deliver them. And now come, I will send thee into Egypt.
35 Etu Moses, junke Israel manu khan pora grohon kora nai, tai koise, ‘Kun he tumike moi khan uporte cholawta koribo dise?’- Tai ekjon thakise junke Isor pora cholawta bonaise aru bachai dibole nimite pathaise- aru sorgodoth hath pora Moses ke jongol te dikhai dise.
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 which appeared to him in the bush.
36 Moses pora he Egypt pora taikhan ke ulai anise, aru sob asurit kaam khan Egypt laga matite dikhai thakise aru Ghar laga Samundar te, aru jongol majot pora taikhan ke chalis saal tak cholai kene loi jaise.
He brought them out, after that he had shewed wonders and signs in the land of Egypt, and in the Red sea, and in the wilderness forty years.
37 Etu Moses he ase, jun Israel khan ke koise, ‘Isor pora tumikhan nimite tumikhan laga bhai kokai khan majot pora ekjon moi nisena bhabobadi ulai dibo.’
This is that Moses, which said unto the children of Israel, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear.
38 Etu tai ase, jongol te thaka homoi te, Sinai Pahar te sorgodoth logot kotha korise, aru kun amikhan baba laga baba khan logot asele, aru utu tai ase jun pora jinda kotha paikene amikhan ke ponchai dise.
This is he, that was in the church in the wilderness with the angel which spake to him in the mount Sina, and [with] our fathers: who received the lively oracles to give unto us:
39 Etu manu laga kotha moi khan laga baba laga baba khan mani bole mon kora nai, kintu taike hatai dise, aru taikhan laga mon Egypt phale jai jaise.
To whom our fathers would not obey, but thrust [him] from them, and in their hearts turned back again into Egypt,
40 Aru Aaron koise, ‘Amikhan nimite murti khan bonai dibi jun amikhan ke loi kene age jabo. Aru etu Moses, jun he amikhan ke Egypt pora loi anise, taike ki hoise amikhan najane.’
Saying unto Aaron, Make us gods to go before us: for [as for] this Moses, which brought us out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is become of him.
41 Titia taikhan ekta goru bacha bonaise, aru hath pora bona laga murti ke kiba ani kene boli dise, aru khushi manai thakise.
And they made a calf in those days, and offered sacrifice unto the idol, and rejoiced in the works of their own hands.
42 Kintu Isor taikhan ke chari kene akas aru tara khan ke puja kori bole dise, jineka bhabobadi khan laga kitab te likha ase, ‘Tumikhan moike janwar laga boli diya nai Chalis saal jongol te thaka homoi te, tumi Israel manu khan kotha manise?
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 [by the space of] forty years in the wilderness?
43 Apuni khan Molech laga tambu ke mani loise, Aru tumikhan laga bhagwan Rephan laga tara bhi, aru murti bonai kene puja kori bole loi jaise karone: Moi tumikhan ke Babylon pora bisi dur te loi rakhidibo.’
Yea, ye took up the tabernacle of Moloch, and the star of your god Remphan, figures which ye made to worship them: and I will carry you away beyond Babylon.
44 Ami laga baba laga baba khan logot sakhi laga tambu ase, jineka taike dikhaise jongol te, tineka bona bole koise, aru thik tineka bonai loise.
Our fathers had the tabernacle of witness in the wilderness, as he had appointed, speaking unto Moses, that he should make it according to the fashion that he had seen.
45 Etu ase tombu ghor juntu amikhan baba khan pora paikene Joshua hath pora loi yate anise, jitia taikhan desh khan ke gheri loi kene kabja kori loise, jun khan Isor he amikhan laga baba khan usor pora khedai dise, aru David raja laga homoi tak thakise,
Which also our fathers that came after brought in with Jesus into the possession of the Gentiles, whom God drave out before the face of our fathers, unto the days of David;
46 jun Isor itcha te paise, tai mangise Jacob laga Isor ke thaki bole ekta jagah karone.
Who found favour before God, and desired to find a tabernacle for the God of Jacob.
47 Kintu Solomon he Isor karone ekta ghor bonai dise.
But Solomon built him an house.
48 Kintu, Mohan Isor to manu pora bonai diya ghor te nathake, bhabobadi pora kowa nisena,
Howbeit the most High dwelleth not in temples made with hands; as saith the prophet,
49 ‘Sorgo to Ami laga singhason, aru prithibi Ami laga theng rakha jaga. Probhu koise, tumi Moi karone ghor bonai dibo? Aru Ami laga aram kora jaga to kote hobo?
Heaven [is] my throne, and earth [is] my footstool: what house will ye build me? saith the Lord: or what [is] the place of my rest?
50 Moi he nijor hath pora etu sob bona nai naki?’
Hath not my hand made all these things?
51 Tumikhan phutani aru mon aru kaan te sunnot nakora khan, tumikhan Pobitro Atma laga hinsa kori thake, tumikhan baba laga baba khan kori aha nisena, tineka apuni khan bhi kore.
Ye stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, ye do always resist the Holy Ghost: as your fathers [did], so [do] ye.
52 Eneka kun bhabobadi ase junke tumikhan laga baba pora dukh diya nai? Taikhan pora ahibole thaka Dharmik Jon Jisu laga kotha kowa manu khan ke bhi morai dise, aru tumikhan bhi morai diya aru thogai diya khan hoi jaise,
Which of the prophets have not your fathers persecuted? and they have slain them which shewed before of the coming of the Just One; of whom ye have been now the betrayers and murderers:
53 Tumikhan sorgodoth khan pora diya Isor laga niyom luwa khan, hoilebi tumikhan manibo para nai.”
Who have received the law by the disposition of angels, and have not kept [it.]
54 Jitia taikhan etu kotha hunise, sabha laga manu khan monte bisi khong hoise, aru dath kamuri kene Stephen uporte khong uthise.
When they heard these things, they were cut to the heart, and they gnashed on him with [their] teeth.
55 Kintu tai Pobitro Atma te bhorta hoi kene, sorgote saise, aru Isor laga mohima aru Jisu to Isor laga dyna hath phale khara thaka dikhi paise.
But he, being full of the Holy Ghost, looked up stedfastly into heaven, and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God,
56 Stephen pora hala kori kene koise, “Sabi, sorgo khuli thaka dikhi ase, aru Manu laga Putro Isor laga dyna hath phale khara kori ase.”
And said, Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing on the right hand of God.
57 Titia taikhan untcha awaj pora hala korise, aru kaan bondh kori kene sob eke logot tai usorte polai ahise.
Then they cried out with a loud voice, and stopped their ears, and ran upon him with one accord,
58 Aru taikhan taike sheher bahar te loijai kene taike pathor mari dise, aru gawahi khan taikhan laga kapra loise aru jawan manu ekjon naam Saul laga bhori te rakhise.
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.
59 Aru taikhan jitia Stephen ke pathor mari thakise, tai Isor ke mati kene koise, “Probhu Jisu, moi laga Atma loi lobi.”
And they stoned Stephen, calling upon [God], and saying, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.
60 Titia tai athukarikena jor awaj pora koise, “Probhu, taikhan ke etu paap laga bisar nokoribi.” Etu koi kene tai ghumai jaise.
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.
