Katwa Nono Katwa 6
1 Nanya kubi, anit gbarda wa yininsa uyenu. Alena na Ayahudaweri ba tin na kugbunlu nin na lena ina mari nanin Israila. Bara na awani alena alesu mine nakuu imonle wadaci kitimine kole me liri.
In those days, as the number of disciples was increasing, there occurred a murmuring of the Greeks against the Hebrews, because their widows were treated with disdain in the daily ministration.
2 Nin nani, nin kidung nono kadure lanza ilemong na iwadin bele, inanin wa pitirin anite vat kitikirum nanya Urshalima “na tima su gigime ba andi ti cino kata dursuzu nin nunu Uliru Kutelle ti nin kifo ukosuzu ni monli kiti nanit.
And so the twelve, calling together the multitude of the disciples, said: “It is not fair for us to leave behind the Word of God to serve at tables also.
3 Bara nanin linuana na tifere anit kuzor anan Ufunu Ulau, anan nibinai ni lau nin nanan yinu kang. Ninnanin, ti dursu nanin usu kata kane.
Therefore, brothers, search among yourselves for seven men of good testimony, filled with the Holy Spirit and with wisdom, whom we may appoint over this work.
4 Bara arik ma su anfani ni kubi kone ti liiubung usun lira nin dursuzu anit uliru kitene Yesu.
Yet truly, we will be continually in prayer and in the ministry of the Word.”
5 Ilemong na anan nono kadure benle annyinusa uyenu yina mung. Bara nanin itin na ifere Istifanus ku unit ulena anayinannin Kutelle kan, ulena Ufunu Ulau di nanya kang. inani wa fere Philibus nin Porokorus nin Nikolas, Timon nin Pamilas nin Nikolas. Ulena iwadi ka gbirin Antiok. Nikolas wa yinin nin na dini na Yahudawa kafin anin yinin nin Yesu.
And the plan pleased the entire multitude. And they chose Stephen, a man filled with faith and with the Holy Spirit, and Philip and Prochorus and Nicanor and Timon and Parmenas and Nicolas, a new arrival from Antioch.
6 Ananyinu sa uyenu tin na inutun anit kuzor taa nanin lira nin taa nanin tarda acara mine kite na timine kogya anan su kata kane.
These they set before the sight of the Apostles, and while praying, they imposed hands on them.
7 Bara nani ananyinu sauyenu tin na ilau ubun dursuzu nanit uliru Kutelle. Ingbardan nana yinu sa uyenu nanya Urshalima kpina ka. Nanya mine among aYahudawe a Prist yina nin liru itin yina nin Yesu.
And the Word of the Lord was increasing, and the number of disciples in Jerusalem was multiplied exceedingly. And even a large group of the priests were obedient to the faith.
8 Kutelle wa ni Istifanus ku likara anan su kata ka zikiki nanya nanite anna nuna iliru kitene Yesu.
Then Stephen, filled with grace and fortitude, wrought great signs and miracles among the people.
9 nin nanin wan among wa yinin nin Istifanu ku ba. Iwa di lipin na Yahudawari iwa di ligowe nin na iwa yicu nanin Freed man kitin lira nin tutu anit unuzu kusari Siriya nin Alazandara nin kusari Silisiya au Asiya inin tin na su magazan nin Istiufanus ku.
But certain ones, from the synagogue of the so-called Libertines, and of the Cyrenians, and of the Alexandrians, and of those who were from Cilicia and Asia rose up and were disputing with Stephen.
10 Vat nin nanin na iwa yinin usu unasara ningye b, bara Ufunu Ulau Kutelle di nin gye amini wa yinin uliru kan.
But they were not able to resist the wisdom and the Spirit with which he was speaking.
11 Inanin wa tinin ise among anit nayiru usun Istifanus ku kinu, anit ane nin woro,”tilaza adin belu uliru unaza kite ne Musa nin Kutelle”
Then they suborned men who were to claim that they had heard him speaking words of blasphemy against Moses and against God.
12 Inin taa a Yahudawe ayi mine nanakan kitin Istifanu, umunu a kune nin anan dursuzu adu mine. Inanin tin na ikifo Istifanus ku itin ida ningye kiti mawucuwucu na Yahudawa.
And thus did they stir up the people and the elders and the scribes. And hurrying together, they seized him and brought him to the council.
13 Inani tutun daa nin namon anit ini taa Istifanus ku kinu. Ale anite nin woro,”Ka gwane din belu imong inanzan kitene kutin kulau kunlira bit nin kitene adu Musa na ana seru kiti Kutelle.
And they set up false witnesses, who said: “This man does not cease to speak words against the holy place and the law.
14 Ilemong na tidin bele unare ti lanza gye adin duu ule Yesu na ana nuzu kusarin Nazareth ama turnu kutii lira kone amini daa nin adu alena tiyirumu alena anit kune bit na durariba.
For we have heard him saying that this Jesus the Nazarene will destroy this place and will change the traditions, which Moses handed down to us.”
15 Vat anit nanya kutii mawucuwucu yene Istifanus ku inin yene umurome na fo umuro ngono kadura Kutelle.
And all those who were sitting in the council, gazing at him, saw his face, as if it had become the face of an Angel.
