Acts 6

1 But, in these days, the disciples, multiplying, there arose a murmuring of the Grecian Jews against the Hebrews, in that, their widows, were being overlooked in the daily ministry.

Tua hun sung, nungzui te hong khan ciang in, Greek te in Hebrew te langpan in kamtam na hong piang hi, banghangziam cile Greek meingong te sia nisim an a hawm uh ciang in ki ngaingonsak hi.

2 And the Twelve, calling near the throng of the disciples, said—It doth not seem, right, that, we, forsaking the word of God, should be ministering unto tables.

Tua zawkcing in sawltak sawm le ni te in nungzui mihonpi te amate kung ah sam a, kote Pathian thu nusia in an ka hawm tu uh sia lungkim huai ngawl hi.

3 But look out for yourselves, brethren, seven men from among you, who can be well-attested, full of Spirit and wisdom, —whom we will appoint over this need;

Tua ahikom, suapui te awng, noma sung pan in a belcing minpha, Tha Thiangtho le ciimna taw a kidim mi sali hong zong tavun a, hi nasep sia amate i ap tu hi.

4 But, we, unto prayer and unto the ministry of the word, will give constant attention.

Ahihang kote sia thungen le Pathian thu sung ah a tawntung in ka kipumpiak tu uh hi, ci uh hi.

5 And the word was pleasing in the sight of all the throng; and they selected Stephen, a man full of faith and Holy Spirit, and Philip and Prochorus and Nicanor and Timon and Parmenas and Nicholaus, a proselyte of Antioch;

Taciang amate sonbang in mihonpi theampo lungkim uh a: amate in, upna le Tha Thiangtho taw a kidim Stephen, Philip, Prochorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas le Antioch khua mi Judah biakna ah a tum Nicolas te teal uh hi.

6 Whom they set before the Apostles, and, praying, they laid upon them their hands.

Amate sia sawltak te mai ah dingsak uh a, thu a ngetsak uh ciang in, amate lutung ah a khut nga uh hi.

7 And, the word of God, went on growing, and the number of the disciples in Jerusalem continued to multiply exceedingly; a great multitude of the priests also, were becoming obedient unto the faith.

Taciang Pathian thu hong khang a; Jerusalem ah nungzui te nasiatak in hong ki belap hi; taciang thiampi tampi te in upna thu zui uh hi.

8 Now, Stephen, full of favour and power, began to do great wonders and signs among the people.

Taciang upna le vangletna taw a kidim Stephen in, mite sung ah a lian mama nalamdang le lim tumdang lianpi te vawt hi.

9 But there rose up certain of those out of the synagogue which is called [the synagogue] of them of Libertium and Cyrene and Alexandria, and certain of them from Cilicia and Asia, —disputing with Stephen;

Tua zawkciang in A Suaktate synagogue a kici, synagogue sung ah Cyrene mite, Alexandria mite, Cilicia mite le Asia mite sia Stephen taw thu kinial uh hi.

10 And they could not withstand the wisdom and the Spirit with which he was speaking,

Amate in Stephen i ciimna le thaa taw a pauna te a nalh zo bua uh hi.

11 Then, they set on men who were saying—We have heard him speaking profane things against Moses and God.

Tua zawkciang in amate in mite sia sumnguk pia ku uh a, tua te in, hisia pa in Moses le Pathian langpan in mindaisak na kammal te a pau sia kote in ka za uh hi, ci uh hi.

12 And they stirred up the people and the elders and the scribes; and, coming upon him, they caught him away, and led him into the high-council.

Taciang amate in mihonpi te, upa te le thukhamhil te hol uh a, Stephen kung ah hongpai uh hi, taciang Sanhedrin te kung ah paipui uh a,

13 And they set up false witnesses, who said—This man, ceaseth not speaking things against this holy place and the law;

Hisia pa in mun thiangtho le thukham langpan in mindaisak na kammal te tatsat ngawl in pau hi, tabang in leilot tetti tampi koi uh hi.

14 For we have heard him saying—This Jesus the Nazarene, will overthrow this place, and will change the customs which, Moses, delivered unto us.

Banghangziam cile, Nazareth mi Jesus in hi mun sia susia tu a, Moses i hongpiak thukham te lai tu hi, ci in hisia pa in a son ka za uh hi, ci uh hi.

15 And, looking steadfastly at him, all they who were sitting in the high-council, saw his face, as if the face of a messenger;

Sanhedrin te thukhen na mun ah a to theampo in, Stephen sia phatak in sal uh a, a maitang sia vantungmi te maitang bang in mu uh hi.
