Orekma 7
1 Mwet Tol Fulat el siyuk sel Stephen, “Ya pwaye ma mwet inge fahk keim uh?”
The high priest said, "Are these things so?"
2 Ac Stephen el fahk, “Mwet lili ac papa an, kowos porongeyu! Meet liki Abraham, papa matu tumasr, el tuh som ac muta lac Haran, God lun wolana El sikyang nu sel in acn Mesopotamia,
He said, "Brothers and fathers, listen. The God of glory appeared to our father Avraham, when he was in Mesopotamia, before he lived in Haran,
3 ac fahk nu sel, ‘Tuyak ac fahla liki facl sum ac mwet lom, ac som nu ke sie acn su nga ac fah akkalemye nu sum.’
and said to him, 'Go out from your land and from your relatives, and come into a land which I will show you.'
4 Na el som liki facl sel, su ma lun mwet Chaldea, ac muta in siti se pangpang Haran. Tukun papa tumal Abraham ah misa, God El sap elan tuku nu in acn se ma kowos muta we inge.
Then he came out of the land of the Kasdim, and lived in Haran. From there, after his father died, he moved him into this land, where you are now living.
5 God El tiana sang kutu srisrik ipin acn inge nu sel Abraham in pacl sac tuh in ma lal. Tusruktu God El tuh wuleang mu El ac fah sang acn inge lal, oayapa nu sin fwilin tulik natul. In pacl se God El orala wulela se inge, wangin tulik natul Abraham.
He gave him no inheritance in it, no, not so much as to set his foot on. He promised that he would give it to him for a possession, and to his descendants after him, when he still had no child.
6 Pa inge ma God El fahk nu sel: ‘Fita lom uh ac fah muta in sie facl sac, yen elos ac fah mwet kohs we, ac elos ac fah akkeokyeyuk ke lusen yac angfoko.
But God spoke in this way, 'His descendants will live as strangers in a foreign land, and that they will be slaves and mistreated, for four hundred years.
7 Tusruk nga ac fah nununku mwet ma ac akkeokyalos uh, na tok elos ac illa liki facl se ingo ac alu nu sik in facl se inge.’
But I will judge the nation to which they will be in bondage,' said God, 'and after that will they come out, and serve me in this place.'
8 Na God El sang nu sel Abraham sie mwe akul nu ke wulela sac, pa kosrala. Ouinge Abraham el kosralla Isaac ke el len oalkosr matwa, ac Isaac el kosralla Jacob, ac Jacob el kosrala wen singoul luo natul, su mwet matu pwengpeng lun sou lasr uh.
He gave him the covenant of circumcision. So Avraham became the father of Iskhaq, and circumcised him the eighth day. Iskhaq became the father of Yaquv, and Yaquv became the father of the twelve patriarchs.
9 “Joseph el sie sin mwet matu pwengpeng lasr, ac tamulel lal elos sok sel ac kukakunulla tuh elan sie mwet kohs in acn Egypt. Tusruktu, God El welul
"The patriarchs, moved with jealousy against Yauseph, sold him into Egypt; and God was with him,
10 ac karinganulang ke mwe ongoiya nukewa nu sel. Ke Joseph el utukyak nu ye mutal Pharoah, tokosra lun Egypt, God El sang ohi ac lalmwetmet nu sel, na tokosra sac el oakilya Joseph tuh elan governor fin acn we, ac oayapa fin mwet nukewa inkul fulat lun tokosra.
and delivered him out of all his afflictions, and gave him favor and wisdom before Pharaoh, king of Egypt. He made him governor over Egypt and all his house.
11 Na oasr sracl na lulap se sikyak fin acn Egypt nufon oayapa in facl Canaan, su pwanang keok lulap nu in acn we. Mwet matu lasr elos tuh tia ku in konauk mwe mongo,
Now a famine came over all Egypt and Canaan, and great affliction, and our fathers found no food.
12 ac ke Jacob el lohngak lah oasr wheat in acn Egypt, el supwala wen natul, aok papa matu tumasr, ke fahsr se meet lalos nu we.
But when Yaquv heard that there was grain in Egypt, he sent out our fathers the first time.
13 Ke fahsr se akluo lalos ah, Joseph el sifacna fahkulak nu sin mwet lel, ouinge tokosra Egypt el tufah etu ke sou lal Joseph.
On the second time Yauseph was made known to his brothers, and Joseph's family became known to Pharaoh.
14 Na Joseph el sapla nu sel Jacob, papa tumal, ac fahk tuh el ac sou lal in tuku nu Egypt — mwet itngoul limekosr nufon.
Then Yauseph sent, and summoned Yaquv, his father, and all his relatives, seventy-five souls.
15 Na Jacob el oatula som nu Egypt, yen ma el, ac papa matu tumasr, misa we.
Yaquv went down into Egypt, and he died, himself and our fathers,
16 Manolos utukla nu Shechem, ac pukpuki ke kulyuk se ma Abraham el tuh molela sin mwet in sruf lal Hamor.
and they were brought back to Shechem, and placed in the tomb that Avraham bought for a price in silver from the children of Hamor in Shechem.
17 “Ke apkuran me pacl se ma God El tuh wuleang kac nu sel Abraham ah, pisen mwet lasr in acn Egypt arulana puseni.
"But as the time of the promise came close which God had made to Avraham, the people grew and multiplied in Egypt,
18 Fahsr nwe sie tokosra su tia etu kacl Joseph el mutawauk in leum fin acn Egypt.
until 'there arose a different king over Egypt, who did not know Yauseph.'
19 El kiapwela mwet matu lasr, ac arulana sulallal nu selos, ac el orek sap ku nu selos in sisla tulik fusr natulos liki lohm selos elos in misa.
The same took advantage of our race, and mistreated our fathers, and forced them to throw out their babies, so that they would not stay alive.
20 Pa inge pacl se Moses el isusla, ac el sie tulik na oasku. Mwet in lohm sel uh liyalang ke malem tolu,
At that time Mushe was born, and was exceedingly handsome. He was nourished three months in his father's house.
21 ac ke sisila el liki lohm sel ah, acn se natul tokosra nutella ac tufahlla oana in ma na natul.
When he was thrown out, Pharaoh's daughter took him up, and reared him as her own son.
22 Lutiyuk el ke kain in etauk nukewa lun mwet Egypt, ac el sie mwet arulana pah in kas ac ku ke orekma.
Mushe was instructed in all the wisdom of the Egyptians. He was mighty in his words and works.
23 “Ke Moses el yac angngaul matwal, el nunkauk in som liye lah mwet Israel wial uh fuka.
But when he was forty years old, it came into his heart to visit his brothers, the people of Israyel.
24 Ke el som el liye lah sie selos tuh orek arulana koluk sin mwet Egypt se, sruk wangin mwatal. Ouinge Moses el som in kasrel, na el foloksak nu sin mwet Egypt sac ac unilya. (
Seeing one of them suffer wrong, he defended him, and avenged him who was oppressed, striking the Egyptian.
25 El nunku mu mwet lal uh ac kalem kac lah God El orekmakunul in aksukosokyalosla, tuh elos tiana kalem kac.)
He supposed that his brothers understood that God, by his hand, was giving them deliverance; but they did not understand.
26 In len tok ah el liye ke mwet Israel luo anwuk, na el srike in akmisyeltalla, ac el fahk nu seltal, ‘Porongeyu. Komtal kewa mwet Israel, na efu ku komtal anwuk angan?’
"The day following, he appeared to them as they fought, and urged them to be at peace again, saying, 'Men, you are brothers. Why do you wrong one another?'
27 Tusruktu mwet se ma oru koluk mwet se ngia el sinukunulla Moses ac siyuk sel, ‘Su oru kom in leum facsr ac nununkekut uh?
But he who did his neighbor wrong pushed him away, saying, 'Who made you a ruler and a judge over us?
28 Ya kom lungse uniyuwi, oana ke kom uniya mwet Egypt se ekea ah?’
Do you want to kill me, as you killed the Egyptian yesterday?'
29 Ke Moses el lohng kas inge, el kaingla liki acn Egypt ac som muta in facl Midian. Ke el muta we, oasr wen luo natul we.
Mushe fled at this saying, and became a stranger in the land of Medyan, where he became the father of two sons.
30 “Tukun yac angngaul, lipufan se sikyang nu sel Moses liki e se ma firir in sak srisrik soko in acn mwesis apkuran nu fineol Sinai.
"When forty years were fulfilled, an angel appeared to him in the wilderness of Mount Sinai, in a flame of fire in a bush.
31 Moses el arulana lut ke ma se el liye inge, ac el kalukyang nu kac elan liye in wo. Na el lohngak pusren Leum, ke El fahk:
When Mushe saw it, he wondered at the sight. As he came close to see, a voice of the Lord came,
32 ‘Nga God lun papa matu tomom somla — God lal Abraham, Isaac, ac Jacob.’ Moses el rarrar ke sangeng, ac tia ku in ngetang nu kac.
'I am the God of your fathers, the God of Avraham, and of Iskhaq, and of Yaquv.' Mushe trembled, and dared not look.
33 Ac Leum God El fahk nu sel, ‘Eisla fahluk lom an, tuh acn se kom tu we inge acn mutal se.
The Lord said to him, 'Take your sandals off of your feet, for the place where you stand is holy ground.
34 Nga liye lupan ongoiya lun mwet luk in acn Egypt. Nga lohng sasao lalos, ac inge nga oatui in molelosla. Fahsru, ac nga fah supwekomla nu Egypt.’
I have surely seen the affliction of my people that is in Egypt, and have heard their groaning. I have come down to deliver them. Now come, I will send you to Egypt.'
35 “Moses se inge pa mwet Israel tuh srangesr lohngol, ac fahk nu sel mu, ‘Su oru kom in leum facsr ac nununkekut uh?’ El pa mwet se ma God El supwala in tuh kol mwet uh, ac molelosla ke kasru lun lipufan se su sikyang nu sel in e se ma firir in sak srisrik soko ah.
"This Mushe, whom they refused, saying, 'Who made you a ruler and a judge?'—God has sent him as both a ruler and a deliverer by the hand of the angel who appeared to him in the bush.
36 El kolla mwet uh liki acn Egypt, orek mwenmen ac ma sakirik in acn Egypt ac in Meoa Srusra, ac oayapa in acn mwesis uh ke yac angngaul.
This man led them out, having worked wonders and signs in Egypt, in the Red Sea, and in the wilderness for forty years.
37 Moses se inge pa mwet se ma tuh fahk nu sin mwet Israel, ‘God El ac fah supwama mwet palu se nu suwos, oana ke El tuh supweyume, ac el ac fah mau sie mwet in mutunfacl suwos.’
This is that Mushe, who said to the people of Israyel, 'God will raise up a prophet for you from among your brothers, like me.'
38 El pa tuh wi u na lulap se lun mwet Israel su toeni in acn mwesis; el tuh wi mwet matu lasr muta we, ac wi pac lipufan se ma tuh kaskas nu sel fineol Sinai, ac el tuh eis kas moul lun God in tafwema nu sesr.
This is he who was in the assembly in the wilderness with the angel that spoke to him on Mount Sinai, and with our fathers, who received words of life to give to us,
39 “Tusruktu mwet matu lasr elos tia lungse aksol Moses. Elos sisella ac kena folokla nu Egypt.
to whom our fathers would not be obedient, but rejected him, and turned back in their hearts to Egypt,
40 Ouinge elos fahk nu sel Aaron, ‘Orala kutu god ah in kol kut. Kut tiana etu lah mea acnu sikyak nu sin mwet se Moses uh, su uskutme liki acn Egypt ah.’
saying to Ahrun, 'Make us gods that will go before us, for as for this Mushe, who led us out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has become of him.'
41 In pacl sac pa elos tuh orala ma sruloala se in luman cow mukul soko, ac orek kisa nu kac, ac orek kufwa in akfulatye ma se elos sifacna orala.
They made a calf in those days, and brought a sacrifice to the idol, and rejoiced in the works of their hands.
42 Ke sripa se inge God El tuh ngetla lukelos, ac eisalosyang in alu nu ke itu inkusrao uh, oana ma fahkak in Ma Simusla lun mwet palu uh, su fahk: ‘Kowos mwet Israel! Ma kowos uniya ac kisakin Ke yac angngaul in acn mwesis ah, Kowos tia oru nu sik.
But God turned, and gave them over to worship the host of heaven, as it is written in the book of the prophets, 'Did you offer to me sacrifices and offerings forty years in the wilderness, O house of Israyel?
43 Lohm nuknuk lal god Molech ah pa kowos tuh us forfor ah, Ac ma sruloala in lumal Rephan, god itu lowos; Ma inge kewa ma sruloala ma kowos orala tuh kowos in alu nu kac. Ouinge nga ac fah supwekowosla nu in sruoh nu in sie acn loes liki acn Babylon.’
You took up the tabernacle of Moloch, and the star of your god Rephan, the images that you made to worship them. Therefore I will exile you beyond Babylon.'
44 “Mwet matu lasr elos tuh us Lohm Nuknuk su Nien Muta lun Leum God welulos yen mwesis ah. Tuh orekla oana ke God El fahk nu sel Moses, ac fal nu ke srikasrak ma itukyang Moses el liye ah.
"Our fathers had the tabernacle of the testimony in the wilderness, even as he who spoke to Mushe commanded him to make it according to the pattern that he had seen;
45 Tok, mwet matu lasr elos tuh eis lohm nuknuk sacna, ma papa tumalos tuh sang nu selos, ac elos us welulos ke elos tuh welul Joshua sruokya acn sin mutanfahl ma God El tuh lusak ye mutalos. Na lohm nuknuk sac oanna we nwe ke pacl lal David.
which also our fathers, in their turn, brought in with Joshua when they entered into the possession of the nations, whom God drove out before the face of our fathers, to the days of Dawid,
46 God El tuh insewowo sel David, ac David el siyuk God Elan lela nu sel in musai sie lohm sin God lal Jacob.
who found favor in the sight of God, and asked to find a habitation for the God of Yaquv.
47 Tuh tia el, a Solomon pa tuh musaela lohm se nu sel ah.
But Shelemun built him a house.
48 “Tusruktu God Fulatlana El tia muta in lohm ma orekla ke poun mwet; oana ke mwet palu el fahk,
However, the Most High does not dwell in temples made with hands, as the prophet says,
49 ‘Leum God El fahk, Kusrao nien muta fulat luk, Ac faclu ma loangeyen niuk. Lohm fuka se kowos ac musaela sik an? Pia acn nga ac muta we uh?
'Heaven is my throne, and the earth a footstool for my feet. What kind of house will you build me?' says the Lord; 'or what is the place of my rest?
50 Ya tia nga pa orala ma inge nukewa uh?’”
Did not my hand make all these things?'
51 Ac Stephen el fahk, “Seyal kowos arulana likkeke ac lohsr insiowos! Kowos mwet srangesr lohng kas sin God me! Kowos wi pac lain Ngun Mutal oana mwet matu lowos somla!
"You stiff-necked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, you always resist the Rukha d'Qudsha. As your fathers did, so you do.
52 Ku oasr mwet palu ma mwet matu lowos ah tuh tia akkeokye? Elos tuh uniya mwet utuk kas lun God su fahkak oemeet ke Mwet Kulansap suwoswos se lun God su ac tuku. Ac inge kowos tukakunulak ac unilya.
Which of the prophets did not your fathers persecute? They killed those who foretold the coming of the Righteous One, of whom you have now become betrayers and murderers.
53 Kowos pa tuh eis Ma Sap lun God su tutafme sin lipufan ah — ne ouinge, a kowos tiana akos!”
You received the Law as it was ordained by angels, and did not keep it."
54 Ke Un Mwet Pwapa Fulat elos lohng kas lal Stephen, elos arulana foloyak ac ngalseni wihselos ke kasrkusrak lalos sel.
Now when they heard these things, they were furious, and they ground their teeth at him.
55 Tusruktu Stephen el sesseslana ke Ngun Mutal. El ngetak nu inkusrao ac liye wolana lun God, ac Jesus el tu lac po layot sin God.
But he, being full of the Rukha d'Qudsha, looked up steadfastly into heaven, and saw the glory of God, and Yeshua standing on the right hand of God.
56 Na el fahk, “Ngetak liye! Nga liye kusrao ikakla, ac Wen nutin Mwet el tu lac po layot sin God!”
And he said, "Look, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God."
57 Un Mwet Pwapa Fulat uh wola ke sie pusra lulap ac fonosya insraclos. Na elos nufon tukenina yuyang nu sel,
But they shouted out with a loud voice, and stopped their ears, and rushed at him with one accord.
58 sisella nu likin siti uh, ac mutawauk in tanglal. Mwet orek loh lainul elos filiya nuknuk lik lalos yurin sie mwet fusr pangpang Saul.
They threw him out of the city, and stoned him. The witnesses placed their garments at the feet of a young man named Shaul.
59 Elos nuna tanglal na Stephen ke el pang nu sin Leum ac fahk, “Leum Jesus, eis ngunik!”
They stoned Astapanos as he called out, saying, "Lord Yeshua, receive my spirit."
60 El sikukmutuntei, ac wowoyak ke sie pusra lulap ac fahk, “Leum, nimet filiya mwatan ma koluk se inge nu faclos!” Tukun el fahk ma inge, na el misa.
He kneeled down, and shouted out, "Lord, do not hold this sin against them." When he had said this, he fell asleep.
