And Saul was consenting and participating in his death. And there was, in that day, a great persecution against the church that was at Jerusalem; and they were all dispersed, except the legates, among the villages of Judaea and likewise among the Samaritans.
2 Eta eraman ceçaten Esteben ohorztera Iaincoaren beldurra çuten guiçon batzuc, eta nigar handi eguin ceçaten haren gainean.
And believing men gathered up and buried Stephen. And they lamented over him greatly.

And Saul persecuted the church of God, entering houses, and dragging forth men and women and committing them to prison.
4 Bada barreyatu içan ciradenac baçabiltzan hara huna, Iaincoaren hitza denunciatzen çutela.
And they who were dispersed, travelled about and preached the word of God.
5 Eta Philippec iautsiric Samariaco hiri batetara, predica ciecén Christ.
And Philip went down to a city of the Samaritans, and preached concerning the Messiah.
6 Eta populua gogo batez behatzen çayon Philippec erraiten çuenari, ençuten eta ikusten cituztela eguiten cituen signoac.
And when the people who were there heard his discourse, they gave ear to him, and acquiesced in all that he said; because they saw the signs which he wrought.
7 Ecen spiritu satsuác, heçaz eduquiten ciradenetaric anhitzetaric ilkiten ciraden, ocengui oihuz ceudela: eta anhitz paralytico eta maingu senda cedin.
For many who were possessed by unclean spirits, cried with a loud voice, and came out of them: and others, who were paralytic and lame, were healed.
8 Eta alegrança handi eguin cedin hiri hartan.
And there was great joy in that city.
9 Eta Simon deitzen cen guiçombat cen, lehendanic hirian encantamenduz vsatzen çuenic, eta Samariaco populua encantatu çuenic, cioela bere buruäz cembeit personage handi cela.
And there was a certain man there, whose name was Simon, who had resided in that city a long time, and who seduced the people of the Samaritans by his sorceries, magnifying himself, and saying, I am a great personage.
10 Ceini behatzen baitzaizquión chipienetic handieneranoco guciac, cioitela, Haur da Iaincoaren verthute handi hura.
And they all inclined towards him, great and small; and they said, This is the mighty power of God.
11 Eta hari beha çaizcan ceren dembora lucez encantamenduz adimendutaric erauci baitzituen.
And they acquiesced in him, because for a long time he had astonished them by his sorceries.
12 Baina Philippe sinhetsi çutenean, ceinec denuntiatzen baitzituen Iaincoaren resumari eta Iesus Christen icenari appertenitzen çaizcan gauçác, batheyatzen ciraden bay guiçonac bay emazteac.
But when they gave credence to Philip, as he preached the kingdom of God, in the name of our Lord Jesus Messiah; they were baptized, both men and women.
13 Eta Simonec berac-ere sinhets ceçan, eta batheyatuz gueroztic Philipperen aldetic etzén higuitzen: eta eguiten ciraden signoac eta verthuteac ikusten cituenean, spantatzen cen.
And Simon himself also believed, and was baptized, and adhered to Philip. And when he saw the signs and mighty deeds which were wrought by his hand, he was surprised and astonished.
14 Eta ençun çutenean Ierusalemen ciraden Apostoluéc, nola Samariac recebitu çuen Iaincoaren hitza, igor citzaten hetara Pierris eta Ioannes.
And when the legates at Jerusalem, heard that the people of the Samaritans had received the word of God, they sent out to them Simon Cephas and John.
15 Hauc hara iautsi içan ciradenean othoitz eguin ceçaten hecgatic, recebi leçatençát Spiritu saindua.
And they went down, and prayed over them, that they might receive the Holy Spirit.
16 (Ecen oraino hetaric batetara-ere etzén iautsi içan, baina solament batheyatuac ciraden Iesus Iaunaren icenean)
For he was not yet on any one of them; and they had only been baptized in the name of our Lord Jesus.
17 Guero paussa citzaten escuac hayén gainean, eta recebi ceçaten Spiritu saindua.
Then they laid the hand on them; and they received the Holy Spirit.
18 Orduan ikussiric Simonec ecen Apostoluen escuen paussatzez emaiten cela Spiritu saindua, diru presenta ciecén.
And when Simon saw that, by the imposition of a hand of the legates, the Holy Spirit was given, he offered them money,
19 Erraiten çuela, Indaçue niri-ere bothere hori, nori-ere escuac gainean paussaturen baitrautzat, recebi deçan Spiritu saindua.
saying: Give me also this prerogative, that he on whom I impose a hand, may receive the Holy Spirit.
20 Baina Pierrisec erran cieçón, Hire diruä hirequin gal dadila, ceren estimatu baituc Iaincoaren dohaina dirutan conquestatzen dela.
Simon Cephas said to him: Thy money go with thee to perdition! because thou hast supposed, that the gift of God may be purchased by a worldly substance.
21 Eztuc hic parteric ez heretageric eguiteco hunetan: ecen hire bihotza eztuc chuchen Iaincoaren aitzinean.
Thou hast no part nor lot in this faith; because thy heart is not right before God.
22 Emendadi bada eure malitia horretaric, eta Iaincoari othoitz eguióc, eya, aguian barka lequidianez eure bihotzeco pensamendua.
Nevertheless, repent of this thy wickedness, and entreat of God, if perhaps the guile of thy heart may be forgiven thee.
23 Ecen behaçun gucizco karminean, eta iniquitatezco estecailluan aicela badiacussát.
For I perceive that thou art in the bitter gall and in the bonds of iniquity.
24 Orduan ihardesten çuela Simonec erran ceçan, Othoitz eguioçue çuec enegatic Iaunari, erran dituçuen gaucetaric batre guertha eztaquidançát,
Simon answered and said: Intercede ye with God for me, that nothing of which ye have mentioned may come upon me.
25 Hec bada testificaturic eta denuntiaturic Iaunaren hitza, itzul citecen Ierusalemera, eta anhitz Samaritanoén burgutan Euangelioa predica ceçaten.
And Simon and John, when they had testified, and had taught them the word of God, returned to Jerusalem. And they had preached in many villages of the Samaritans.
26 Guero Iaunaren Aingueruä minça cequión Philipperi, cioela, Iaiqui adi, eta habil Egu-erdi alderát, Ierusalemetic Gazara iausten den bidera: hura duc desert:
And the angel of the Lord spake with Philip, and said to him: Arise, go to the south, along the desert way that leadeth down from Jerusalem to Gaza.
27 Eta iaiquiric ioan cedin, eta huná, guiçon Ethiopiano Eunuchobat, Ethiopianoén reguina Candaceren azpian manamendu gucia çuenic, cein baitzén haren onhassun guciaren gaineco: eta ethorri içan cen adoratzera Ierusalemera:
And he arose and went. And there met him a eunuch, who had come from Cush, an officer of Candace, queen of the Cushites, who had charge of all her treasure; and he had come to worship at Jerusalem.
28 Eta itzultzen cen iarriric cegoela bere carriot gainean, eta iracurtzen çuen Esaias prophetá.
And as he turned to go, he was sitting in his chariot, and was reading in Isaiah the prophet.
29 Orduan erran cieçón Spirituac Philipperi, Hurbil adi, eta hers aquio carriot horri.
And the Holy Spirit said to Philip: Go near, and join thyself to the chariot.
30 Eta Philippec laster eguinic ençun ceçan hura, iracurtzen çuela Esaias prophetá: eta erran cieçón, Baina aditzen duc iracurtzen duana?
And when he came near, he heard him reading in Isaiah the prophet; and he said to him: Understandest thou what thou readest?
31 Eta harc dio, Eta nola ahal neçaque, baldin norbeitec guida ezpaneça? Eta othoitz eguin cieçon Philipperi iganic iar ledin harequin.
And he said: How can I understand, unless some one instruct me? And he requested of Philip, that he would come up and sit with him.
32 Eta Scripturaco passage iracurtzen çuena, haur cen, Ardibat beçala heriotzera eraman içan da: eta nola bildots-bat motzen duenaren aitzinean mutu baita, hala eztu irequi vkan bere ahoa
And the section of scripture in which he was reading, was this: As a lamb to the slaughter he was led away, and as a sheep before the shearer is silent, so also he in his humility opened not his mouth.
33 Haren beheratzean haren iugemendua goratu içan da: baina haren irautea norc contaturen du? ecen altchatzen da lurretic haren vicia.
From prison and from judgment he was carried: and his generation, who will declare? for his life is taken away from the earth.
34 Eta ihardesten ceraucala Eunuchoac Philipperi, erran ceçan, Othoitz eguiten drauat, norçaz Prophetác erraiten du haur? bere buruäz, ala cembeit bercez?
And the eunuch said to Philip: I pray thee, of whom speaketh the prophet this? of himself, or of some other person?
35 Orduan irequiric Philippec bere ahoa eta hassiric Scriptura hunetaric denuntia cieçon Iesus.
Then Philip opened his mouth and, from that scripture, began to preach to him concerning our Lord Jesus.
36 Eta bidean ioaiten ciradela, ethor citecen vr batetara: orduan dio Eunuchoac, Huna vra: cerc empatchatzen nau batheyatu içatetic?
And as they proceeded on the way, they came to a certain place in which there was water. And the eunuch said: Lo, here is water; what doth forbid, that I should be baptized?
37 Eta erran ceçan Philippec, Baldin sinhesten baduc eure bihotz guciaz, ahal aite. Eta ihardesten çuela harc erran ceçan, Sinhesten diat Iaincoaren Semea dela Iesus Christ.
And Philip said: If thou believest with all thy heart, it is allowable. And he answered, and said: I believe that Jesus Messiah is the Son of God.
38 Eta mana ceçan carriota gueldin ledin: eta iauts citecen biac vrera, Philippe eta Eunuchoa: eta batheya ceçan hura.
And he commanded the chariot to stop; and they both went down to the water, and Philip baptized the eunuch.
39 Eta igan ciradenean vretic, Iaunaren Spirituac harrapa ceçan Philippe, eta guehiagoric etzeçan ikus hura Eunuchoac: eta bere bideaz ioaiten cen alegueraric.
And when they came up from the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Philip; and the eunuch saw him no more; but he went on his way rejoicing.
40 Baina Philippe eriden cedin Azot-en: eta iragaitean predica ceçan Euangelioa hiri gucietan Cesareara hel leiteno.
And Philip was found at Azotus; and from there he travelled about, and preached in all the cities, until he came to Caesarea.
