Acts 6
1 But in those days, the disciples multiplying in number, there arose a murmuring of the Hellenists against the Hebrews because their widows were overlooked in the daily ministration.
Bara sana keessa yommuu baayʼinni barattootaa dabalamaa deemetti Yihuudoonni Giriikota keessa jiraatan Ibrootatti guunguman; haadhonni hiyyeessaa Yihuudootaa nyaata guyyaa guyyaan hiramu keessatti hacuucamanii turaniitii.
2 And the twelve, having called the multitude of the disciples to [them], said, It is not right that we, leaving the word of God, should serve tables.
Kanaaf ergamoonni kudha lamaan barattoota hunda walitti qabanii akkana jedhaniin; “Maaddii tajaajiluuf jennee dubbii Waaqaa barsiisuu dhiisuun nuuf qajeelaa miti.
3 Look out therefore, brethren, from among yourselves seven men, well reported of, full of [the] [Holy] Spirit and wisdom, whom we will establish over this business:
Kanaaf yaa obboloota isin namoota maqaa gaarii qaban kanneen Hafuura Qulqulluu fi ogummaan guutaman torba gidduu keessanii filadhaa. Nus itti gaafatama kana isaanitti kenninee,
4 but we will give ourselves up to prayer and the ministry of the word.
Waaqa kadhachuu fi dubbii isaa barsiisuutti jabaannaa.”
5 And the saying pleased the whole multitude: and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and [the] Holy Spirit, and Philip, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicolas, a proselyte of Antioch,
Wanni isaan jedhanis tuuta sana hunda gammachiise. Isaanis Isxifaanos namicha amantii fi Hafuura Qulqulluudhaan guutame tokko, akkasumas Fiiliphoosii fi Phirookoroosin, Niiqaaroonaa fi Xiimoonaa, Pharmeenaa fi Niqoolaas namicha Anxookiiyaa isa amantii Yihuudootaatti gale sana filatan.
6 whom they set before the apostles; and, having prayed, they laid their hands on them.
Isaanis jara kana fuula ergamootaa dura dhaaban; ergamoonnis Waaqa kadhataniifii harka isaan irra kaaʼan.
7 And the word of God increased; and the number of the disciples in Jerusalem was very greatly multiplied, and a great crowd of the priests obeyed the faith.
Dubbiin Waaqaa ni babalʼate; baayʼinni barattootaas Yerusaalem keessatti akka malee dabalame; luboonni hedduun amantii kanaaf ajajaman.
8 And Stephen, full of grace and power, wrought wonders and great signs among the people.
Isxifaanos ayyaanaa fi humna Waaqaatiin guutamee dinqii fi mallattoo gurguddaa namoota gidduutti hojjette.
9 And there arose up certain of those of the synagogue called of freedmen, and of Cyrenians, and of Alexandrians, and of those of Cilicia and Asia, disputing with Stephen.
Miseensonni mana sagadaa warra, “Namoota bilisooman” jedhamanii, jechuunis Yihuudoonni Qareenaa fi Iskindiriyaadhaa dhufan akkasumas Yihuudoonni Kiilqiyaa fi Asiyaadhaa dhufan tokko tokko Isxifaanosiin mormuu jalqaban.
10 And they were not able to resist the wisdom and the Spirit with which he spoke.
Isaan garuu ogummaa isaa yookaan Hafuura Qulqulluu inni ittiin dubbatu sanaan mormuu hin dandeenye.
11 Then they suborned men, saying, We have heard him speaking blasphemous words against Moses and God.
Kanaafuu akka isaan, “Nu utuu Isxifaanos Musee fi Waaqa irratti dubbii arrabsoo dubbatuu dhageenyeerra” jedhaniif dhoksaan namoota tokko tokko sossobatan.
12 And they roused the people, and the elders, and the scribes. And coming upon [him] they seized him and brought [him] to the council.
Isaanis uummata, maanguddootaa fi barsiistota seeraa kakaasan. Isxifaanosiinis qabanii fuula waldaa Yihuudootaa duratti isa dhiʼeessan.
13 And they set false witnesses, saying, This man does not cease speaking words against the holy place and the law;
Dhuga baatota sobduus qopheeffatan; isaanis akkana jedhan; “Namichi kun iddoo qulqulluu kanaa fi seeraan mormuu takkumaa hin dhiifne.
14 for we have heard him saying, This Jesus the Nazaraean shall destroy this place, and change the customs which Moses taught us.
Nu isaa, ‘Yesuus namni Naazreeti kun iddoo kana ni diiga; seera Museen nuu kennes ni geeddara’ jedhu dhageenyeerra.”
15 And all who sat in the council, looking fixedly on him, saw his face as [the] face of an angel.
Warri waldaa sana keessa turan hundi ija babaasanii Isxifaanosin ilaalanii akka fuuli isaa akkuma fuula ergamaa Waaqaa taʼe argan.
