Katwa Nono Katwa 7
1 Nin nanin ku prist kudawe tirino Istifanu ku,”ilemone na ant alele din belu kite fe kiden are?
Then the high priest said, “Are these things so?”
2 Istifanus nin kawa, “Nua nanin a Yahudawa nin na didawe, lanzannin! Kutelle kudewe na tidin ruugye, wa zuru nin cifi bite Ibrahim na wa dutu nanya kusarin Mesopotamia, kafin adak kusarin ka gwirin Haran.
And Stephen said: “Noble brothers and fathers, listen. The God of glory appeared to our father Abraham, when he was in Mesopotamia, before he stayed in Haran.
3 Kutelle nin woeo gye, cino mmin mone na uduku nan na iyayife, duku, udu mmin mona ima dursu fi.
And God said to him, ‘Depart from your country and from your kindred, and go into the land that I will show to you.’
4 Amini Abrahem tina acino mmim mone, na Chaldia, amini wa dak Uharan anin soo kikane. Nin kidung ucif me kuu, Kutelle nin belingye anuzu mmimn mone na sosinku.
Then he went away from the land of the Chaldeans, and he lived at Haran. And later, after his father was dead, God brought him into this land, in which you now dwell.
5 Kubi kone Kutelle wadi asa naa Abraham mmin lisosin me ba. Vat nin nanin Kutelle su gye likawali ama nigye mming mona amasoku nin nisudu me, sa ligan. Nin nanin ma Abraham kubu kone awa dinin nin gono kana ama su ugadu me ba.
And he gave him no inheritance in it, not even the space of one step. But he promised to give it to him as a possession, and to his offspring after him, though he did not have a son.
6 Nin bung Kutelle belle Abraham, 'Isudu fe masuo kipin limara. ima suo kikane udu akus akalin anas, lisosin mine kikane lin ma yitu licin ari.
Then God told him that his offspring would be a settler in a foreign land, and that they would subjugate them, and treat them badly, for four hundred years.
7 Men ba nani ulada umugunta mine na itaa nono nin son, mba nin nutun min, nin kidun isudu fe madak ida usujaida [lidurun] nan mmin mone.
‘And the nation whom they will serve, I will judge,’ said the Lord. ‘And after these things, they shall depart and shall serve me in this place.’
8 Kutelle nin dokace Abraham, asu nono ni lime me[mboo] ukaciya, nanin anit ma yinu inin nono Kutelle ari, Nin mbung ame Abraham se gono lisame Ishaku, kube na Ishaku wa tii ayira kulir, [8days] Abraham su gye ubo[ukaciya] nin mbung ame Ishaku mara gono me lisame Yakubu, Yakubu yita ucif nono likure, alena aYahudawe din yici nanin akune na cif bit.
And he gave him the covenant of circumcision. And so he conceived Isaac and circumcised him on the eighth day. And Isaac conceived Jacob, and Jacob, the twelve Patriarchs.
9 Iyiru gono ki kune Yakube laza ayi bara ucifime wa yiru Yusufuku ataa gye kinnayi me. Inanin wa lewu gye nacara nanan kasau, inanin wa yiru gye udu Umasar, kikane amini suo unan licin. Vat nanin Kutelle mini na bung Yusufu ku.
And the Patriarchs, being jealous, sold Joseph into Egypt. But God was with him.
10 Amini wasugye ukariya kikana anit wani uwahala. Amini wa nigye uhikima kan, amini watii Firaun, ogo Masar, asu umong icine kitenen Yusufu. Nin nanin Firauna nin nin yira gye asu umulki nanya Masar nin yenju kuturan Firauna.
And he rescued him from all his tribulations. And he gave him grace and wisdom in the sight of Pharaoh, the king of Egypt. And he appointed him as governor over Egypt and over all his house.
11 Dana Yusufu wadin su kata kane, iduru kon kubi na umonli wasali nanya mmin Masar nin Kaana, Anit wa di tikanci kan. Kubi kone Yakubu nin nonome na iwa dinin ni mmonli ba
Then a famine occurred in all of Egypt and Canaan, and a great tribulation. And our fathers did not find food.
12 Dana Yakubu lanza imonli lesu din Masar, amini wa tuu nuono me udu Umasarinan di seru imonli li, inanin wa duo idi seru imonli kitin Yusufu, inanin wa yinin Yusufu ku b, inanin wa kpilin kilari.
But when Jacob had heard that there was grain in Egypt, he sent our fathers first.
13 Kubi kona nuona Yusufu duo iseri ni monli unbe kikanere, anin benle nanin ame ari. Nin nanere Firauna nin yino an Yusufu a Yahudaweri, nin anit ale na idaa unuzu Kaana nuona mere.
And on the second occasion, Joseph was recognized by his brothers, and his ancestry was made manifest to Pharaoh.
14 Nanin nin kidun na Yusufu tuo nuona me kilari, inin benle ucif mine Yakubu Yusuf dinin us me nin iyalime idak Umasar ida suo k. Kubi kone Yakube nin nono me wadi akut kuzor nin kutochin
Then Joseph sent for and brought his father Jacob, with all his kindred, seventy-five souls.
15 Dana Yakubu lanza nani, ame nin lilari me yga udu Umasar. Nin kidun Yakube kuu kikane, nin na mong akune bit, nin nono me kuu kikane
And Jacob descended into Egypt, and he passed away, and so did our fathers.
16 Inanin wa yiru abi niwo mine idamu kutin bit kikane ikasa nanin kikana ucif bit Abraham naseru nanya kagbirin Shechem.
And they crossed over into Shechem, and they were placed in the sepulcher which Abraham bought for a sum of money from the sons of Hamor, the son of Shechem.
17 Akune bite taa gbardan kubi kona Kutelle wa dinin su utucu mine kiti na Msrawe, nafo na ana su Abraham ku ualkawali.
And when the time of the Promise that God had revealed to Abraham drew near, the people increased and were multiplied in Egypt,
18 Umong ugo da a suumulki Umasar, na ame yiru Yusufu ku ba na amere wabun nanin kubikona awadi mulkeba,
even until another king, who did not know Joseph, rose up in Egypt.
19 Ugo ne rusuzonanin kurun asu uzalamci kit na kune bite ana nin uwahalakang. Amini wa tii nanin itusu nono nibebene mine idas ni lari mine inan kuzu.
This one, encompassing our kindred, afflicted our fathers, so that they would expose their infants, lest they be kept alive.
20 Kubi konere iwa maru Musa k, Kutelle, nin yene gye gono ki gigimeri kan. Nin nanin acif me nashe gye nanya kilai nanya tipui ti tat
In the same time, Moses was born. And he was in the grace of God, and he was nourished for three months in the house of his father.
21 Inanin wa ce ghe idas kilare, bara ushonon Ifirauna nan nin seghe ibiu kigawa, amini wa minghe nafo gono mere.
Then, having been abandoned, the daughter of Pharaoh took him in, and she raised him as her own son.
22 Iwa dursuza Muse ku vat ukoyo na ani Masarawe yiru mu, amini wa gunjo asu imong ezikiki kan
And Moses was instructed in all the wisdom of the Egyptians. And he was mighty in his words and in his deeds.
23 In lonliri kubi kona Musa wa di akus akut kutochin, amini yina kibinai me ama di lisu anit me, a Israila
But when forty years of age were completed in him, it rose up in his heart that he should visit his brothers, the sons of Israel.
24 Amini wa yene ku Masarawa di fuo ku Israila. Bara nanin amini wa tinin adi buno ku Israila, atina amolo ku Masarawe.
And when he had seen a certain one suffering injury, he defended him. And striking the Egyptian, he wrought a retribution for him who was enduring the injury.
25 Muse wa suso ku Israila maynnu Kutelle na tuu ghe ada bolu nanin nanya lichin Masaraware. Bara nani ne inin wa yinin ba.
Now he supposed that his brothers would understand that God would grant them salvation through his hand. But they did not understand it.
26 Nin kuiy, Muse yene ku Israila din fuo atimine. Amini wa cina ukosu nani, Anit, anin na biye li nwana a Israila! Bara yanghari idin fuo ani mine?
So truly, on the following day, he appeared before those who were arguing, and he would have reconciled them in peace, saying, ‘Men, you are brothers. So why would you harm one another?’
27 Ame ulena awa lanza gwana me ukule turno Museku kusari ani benle ''aa ghari taa fi kulauya kiti bit!
But he who was causing the injury to his neighbor rejected him, saying: ‘Who has appointed you as leader and judge over us?
28 Udinin suu umoli nafo na una molu ku Masarawe ilenghe?
Could it be that you want to kill me, in the same way that you killed the Egyptian yesterday?’
29 Dana Musa lanza nanin atin na achino u Masarawe acoo udu mmin Midiniawa. Amini wa ti akus kikane. amini wa suu ilima kikan iwane mara ghe nono niba.
Then, at this word, Moses fled. And he became a foreigner in the land of Midian, where he produced two sons.
30 lon lir akus akuta nas nin kidun, Kutelle seeghe nanya gono kadura me udu kiti Musa. Ani see Musa ku nanya galtun kushoo kona kuwandin jujuki dawo nanya kushoo kukau ku popo likup.
And when forty years were completed, there appeared to him, in the desert of Mount Sinai, an Angel, in a flame of fire in a bush.
31 Dana Musa yene nanin asu umamaki, bara ula wadin lii kushe amana kushoo juju kidawo ba, dana ada kupopo kushoo anan yen, amini wa tini alanaza liwui Kutelle yichu ghe,
And upon seeing this, Moses was amazed at the sight. And as he drew near in order to gaze at it, the voice of the Lord came to him, saying:
32 'Men Kutelleri ulena akunefe na zazu. Men Kutelle Abraham, Ishaku, nin Yakubu na ina zazu. Musa lanza fiu kan atina ketuzu. Alanza fiu yeju kushoo tutun.
‘I am the God of your fathers: the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.’ And Moses, being made to tremble, did not dare to look.
33 Nanin Kutelle woroghe akala akwatak me auro sa udin daukaki. Bara kika na uduku kiti kilauwari kinaniari.
But the Lord said to him: ‘Loosen the shoes from your feet. For the place in which you stand is holy ground.
34 Imali yenu elemon na ann Masarawa di ni anit nin ti kanci. Ilanza aniti nin kubi kona idin ghilu. men daa ida bolu nanin nachara na Marawa. Nene fita, bara idin chinu utufi nanya Masar,
Certainly, I have seen the affliction of my people who are in Egypt, and I have heard their groaning. And so, I am coming down to free them. And now, go forth and I will send you into Egypt.’
35 Musa amere wa bung nono Israila, ulena iwa narighe, inin woro, aa ahri na tifi un kulau kitibit! Musare Kutelle na tuu ghe asu umulki mine ani bolu nanin nanyaa lichin amere ule na gono kadura gye kushe walin ghe suu imene.
This Moses, whom they rejected by saying, ‘Who has appointed you as leader and judge?’ is the one God sent to be leader and redeemer, by the hand of the Angel who appeared to him in the bush.
36 Musa amere wa nutun akunebite in Masar. aamini wa wasu imong eziki gbardan, nanya Masar bara ana dura Kutelle wa di nin ghe, kurawa kku shine nin akus akuta nas anit Israila nadi nanya kushoo.
This man led them out, accomplishing signs and wonders in the land of Egypt, and at the Red Sea, and in the desert, for forty years.
37 Ule Musare na awa benli anit Israila, 'Ktelle maa dani nin mong nanya na nit mine asuo kuannabit nafo men.
This is Moses, who said to the sons of Israel: ‘God will raise up for you a prophet like me from your own brothers. You shall listen to him.’
38 Ule unitere Musa na awadi nanya na Israila na awadi nanghinu nannya kushoo; amere gono kadure Kutelle wadi nin ghe likup Sinai. Amere Musa na Kutelle na nighetidokoki bite, amere ulena abelin akune bite tipipin tona unan kadure wa belin. Amere ulena ana seru tipipin Kutelle udu kiti bite dana tidin belu nari tusu lisosin linsali ligan udu kusari bit.
This is he who was in the Church in the wilderness, with the Angel who was speaking to him on Mount Sinai, and with our fathers. It is he who received the words of life to give to us.
39 Vat nin nani akune bite wa nari lanzu Muse k, inani wa nari asuo nani udia mine, inani wa dinin suu i kpilin udu Masarawa.
It is he whom our fathers were not willing to obey. Instead, they rejected him, and in their hearts they turned away toward Egypt,
40 Bara nani inani wa beli yayame Haruna, 'kele nari kudodo kono kuma suo nari kutelle ayiru nari udu Umasar. Bara ame Muse na tiyiru yeri se ghe ba.
saying to Aaron: ‘Make gods for us, which may go before us. For this Moses, who led us away from the land of Egypt, we do not know what has happened to him.’
41 Inani wa kee kutelle kaluka. inani wa nakpiza tihadayu mine mbung kaluke inan zazin kudode, inani wa suu afu nin niwawa bara ilemong na inin kele.
And so they fashioned a calf in those days, and they offered sacrifices to an idol, and they rejoiced in the works of their own hands.
42 Bara nani Kutelle tina chino ukelu nani. Amini chino nani isuu uwui, upoi nin niyin, kitene kitene kane usujaida. ulele di daidai nin tipipi too umong ku uan liru nuu Kutelle n yertin: Kutelle na belin, Anun anit Israila, kubi kona na iwa libun molsu ina nin nakpizu tihadaya mine nanya akus akut anas na iwadi nanya kushoo, inani wa nakpiza meghari ku tihadaye?
Then God turned, and he handed them over, to subservience to the armies of heaven, just as it was written in the Book of the Prophets: ‘Did you not offer victims and sacrifices to me for forty years in the desert, O house of Israel?
43 Bada nanin iwayiru kudaga udu niniti kona kuwa di nin aloli kutelle Molech inani wa suu ghe usujaida. Inan tutun iwa yiru usufa fiyin ulena iwa yichu ghe Rephan. alelere akunki alena iwa kiye inani wa suu manin usujaida na menba. bara nani ima tii ida yiru nilari pii udu kankagbiri dana kadi pii dana ka ta Ubabila.
And yet you took up for yourselves the tabernacle of Moloch and the star of your god Rephan, figures which you yourselves formed in order to adore them. And so I will carry you away, beyond Babylon.’
44 Kube na achif biteiwa di nanya kushoo, inani wa suu Kutelle ku usujaida nanya kudaga nafo awadi nanghinu. Inani wa kiye kudaga nafo na Kutelle na belin Muse ku. kuwa di nafo kona Muse wa yene kitene likupe.
The tabernacle of the testimony was with our fathers in the desert, just as God ordained for them, speaking to Moses, so that he would make it according to the form that he had seen.
45 Udak kidun, ukon kunebit ayira kutent kone kubi kona Joshua wa dak nin ghinu nanya mminghe. Kubi konere iwa bolu mmin mone, kubi kona Kutelle wa nutun anite alena iwa di nanya mminmone, att nain inuzu. Bara nani Israila kifo mmin moneiman taa min mine, Kudanaghe wadi nanya mine ni duu ayiri ugo Dauda.
But our fathers, receiving it, also brought it, with Joshua, into the land of the Gentiles, whom God expelled before the face of our fathers, even until the days of David,
46 Duda taa ayi Kutelle man amini wa tirin Kutelle ku sa akeeghe kilari kika na ame nin vat anit Israila ima suu ghe sujaida.
who found grace before God and who asked that he might obtain a tabernacle for the God of Jacob.
47 Bara nani Kutelle nin woro Dauda ku uson fere Sulaimanu ma keyi kilari kika na anit ma suu usujaida.
But it was Solomon who built a house for him.
48 ''Bara nani, iyiru kitele katin likara koyan. Na awngya asuo kilari kana ani kiye ba. nafo na Ishaya una liru nuu Kutelle wa nyertin:
Yet the Most High does not live in houses built by hands, just as he said through the prophet:
49 Kutelle woro ''kitene ukursiyi nighari, kutin tutun kiti patilu nin ghari musu kiyapin kilari imaa keyi mugha? Men litini ina kie imong vat kitene nin kutin.
‘Heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool. What kind of house would you build for me? says the Lord. And which is my resting place?
50 Bara anun anit ari iwaya kelai kilari kana men wanya isuu nanya kinin ba?
Has not my hand made all these things?’
51 Anun anit atimine di gagan kitime! idi nafo akune minere! iani naru Ufunu lauwe, nafo na ini suu!
Stiff-necked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, you ever resist the Holy Spirit. Just as your fathers did, so also do you do.
52 akune mine watii anan liru nuu Kutelle ti kanchi kan. Inani wa molu alena iwa beli ubelen dakin Kristi, amere ma chas ana nonko kibinai Kutelle man. Kristi une na malin dak! Amere ule na na ina kpilin nanan ni vira meinani na yisi imolughe!
Which of the Prophets have your fathers not persecuted? And they killed those who foretold the advent of the Just One. And you have now become the betrayers and murderers of him.
53 Anughere anite na ina seru tidokoki Kutelle. Too tidokore Kutelle nani gono kadura me ani acif bite, vat nanma na ina durtu ti dokokeba.
You received the law by the actions of Angels, and yet you have not kept it.”
54 Kube na anan ma wucuwucu na Yahudawe nin saure lanza vat elemon na Istifanus benle, inani wa lanza ayii ka. Inani wa din talu na yini mine bara ilemong na Istifanu benle nanin!
Then, upon hearing these things, they were deeply wounded in their hearts, and they gnashed their teeth at him.
55 bara nani Ufunu ulau tin nonko kibinai Istifanus. Amini tii iyizime kitene kane atina ayene ikanan laa Kutelle. Amini wa yene Yesu ku yisin mbung chara ulime Kutelle.
But he, being filled with the Holy Spirit, and gazing intently toward heaven, saw the glory of God and Jesus standing at the right hand of God.
56 ''Yene,''aworo'' iyene kutenle puno, imini yene gono nit yisin kusari chara ulime Kutelle
And he said, “Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing at the right hand of God.”
57 Dana anan ma wucuwucu na Yahudawe nin usaura mine lanza. inani watii inteed kan. Inani wa tursu atuf mine ninna chara bara na iwa lanza ghe ba, sa umolukubi itinna imuna tii kiti me.
Then they, crying out with a loud voice, blocked their ears and, with one accord, rushed violently toward him.
58 Inani iwa wunun gh udu udas kagbire Urshalima tina tauzu ghe nin na tala. Anit alena iwa suu kinu kitene me itina kala alituk mine ichau kupopo ko kunyana lisamw Shawulu amini wa suu uhaa nalituk ke.
And driving him out, beyond the city, they stoned him. And witnesses placed their garments beside the feet of a youth, who was called Saul.
59 Dana ilau ubun tauzu ghe nin natale, Stifanus taa nlira,''Ucikilari nin Yesu sere ifip nighe!
And as they were stoning Stephen, he called out and said, “Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.”
60 Nin nani Stifanus tin na adeu kitin ani jartin, Cikilari, na uwa kifo nani kulapi kona ba! Nin kidun na benle nani, atina kuu.
Then, having been brought to his knees, he cried out with a loud voice, saying, “Lord, do not hold this sin against them.” And when he had said this, he fell asleep in the Lord.
