Kau ʻAposetolo 6

1 Pea ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia, ʻi he tupu ʻo tokolahi ʻae kau ākonga, naʻe tupu ʻi he kau ʻElinisitō ʻae lāunga ki he kau Hepelū, koeʻuhi naʻe taʻetokangaʻi ʻenau kau fefine kuo mate honau husepāniti, ʻi he tufa naʻe fai ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē.

A wadannan kwanaki, yawan almajiran ya ci gaba da ribanbanya, sai Yahudawan da suke zama a kasar Helanawa suka fara gunaguni game da Yahudawan Isra'ila, domin basu damu da gwamrayensu, wajen raba abinci da ake yi kullum.

2 Pea naʻe fekau ʻe he toko hongofulu ma toko ua ke fakataha mai ʻae kau ākonga, ʻonau pehē, “ʻOku ʻikai taau ke mau liʻaki ʻae folofola ʻae ʻOtua, kae tokonaki ki he ngaahi keinangaʻanga.

Manzannin nan sha biyu suka kira taron almajiran suka ce masu, ''Bai kamata mu bar maganar Allah mu shiga hidimar rabon abinci ba.

3 Pea ko eni, ʻe kāinga, mou fili meiate kimoutolu ʻae kau tangata ongoongoleleiʻia ʻe toko fitu, ʻoku pito ʻi he Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni mo e poto, ke mau fakanofo ʻakinautolu ki he ngāue ni.

Don haka ku zabi 'yan'uwa maza daga cikinku, mutane bakwai wadanda a ke ganin su da daraja, cike da Ruhu da kuma hikima, wadanda za mu zaba suyi wannan hidima.

4 Ka te mau tuku ʻakimautolu maʻuaipē ki he lotu, pea mo e malangaʻaki ʻae folofola.”

Mu kuwa mu ci gaba da da addu'a da kuma hidimar kalmar.''

5 Pea naʻe lelei ʻae lea ko ia ki he kakai kotoa pē: pea naʻa nau fili ʻa Setiveni, ko e tangata naʻe pito ʻi he tui mo e Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni, mo Filipe, mo Pikolo, mo Nikanoolo, mo Taimoni mo Pamina, mo Nikola ko e ului ki he [lotu fakaSiu ]mei ʻAniteoke:

Maganar su kuwa ta farantawa dukan jama'a rai sosai. Sai suka zabi Istifanus, shi kuwa mutum ne cike da bangaskiya kuma da Ruhu Mai Tsarki da Filibus, da Birokoros, da Nikanar, da Timan, da Barminas, da kuma Nikolas, mutmin Antakiya wanda ya yi tuban Yahudanci.

6 ‌ʻAia naʻa nau omi ki he ʻao ʻoe kau ʻaposetolo: pea hili ʻenau lotu, naʻe ʻai honau nima kiate kinautolu.

Masu bin kuwa suka gabatar da wadannan mutanen a gaban manzannin, su kuwa suka yi masu addu'a suka kuma dora hannuwansu a kansu.

7 Pea naʻe mafola ʻae folofola ʻae ʻOtua; pea naʻe fakatokolahi ʻaupito ʻae kau ākonga ʻi Selūsalema; pea talangofua ki he tui ʻae fuʻu tokolahi ʻoe kau taulaʻeiki.

Sai maganar Allah ta yawaita; yawan almajiran kuwa ya rubanbanya matuka a Urushalima; firistoci da yawa na Yahudawa suka bada gaskiya.

8 Pea kuo pito ʻa Setiveni ʻi he tui mo e mālohi, naʻe fai ʻe ia ʻae meʻa fakaofo mo e ngaahi mana lahi, ʻi he ʻao ʻoe kakai.

Sai Istifanus, cike da alheri da iko, ya rika yin ayyukan ban mamaki da alamu a cikin jama'a.

9 Pea naʻe tuʻu ʻae niʻihi ʻi he falelotu, ʻaia ʻoku ui [ko e falelotu ]ʻoe Lipataine, mo e kau Sailine, mo e kau ʻAlekisānitia, mo kinautolu mei Silisia, mo ʻEsia, pea naʻa nau fakakikihi mo Setiveni.

Amma sai ga wadansu mutane daga wata majami'a da ake kira majami'ar Yantattu, wato su Kuramiyawa da Iskandariyawa, da kuma wasu daga kasar Kilikiya da Asiya. Wadannan mutanen kuwa suna muhawara da Istifanus.

10 Pea naʻe ʻikai te nau faʻa tali ʻae poto mo e loto naʻa ne leaʻaki.

Amma suka kasa yin tsayayya da Istifanus, saboda irin hikima da Ruhun da Istifanus ya ke magana da shi.

11 Pea naʻa nau toki fakalotoʻi ʻae kau tangata, ke nau pehē, “Kuo mau fanongo ki heʻene leaʻaki ʻae lea kovi kia Mōsese, pea mo e ʻOtua.”

Sai a asirce suka zuga wasu mutane su je su ce, ''Ai munji Istifanus yana maganganun sabo game da Musa da kuma Allah.''

12 Pea naʻa nau ueʻi ʻae kakai, mo e mātuʻa, mo e kau tangata tohi, ke nau feʻohofi ʻo puke ia, ʻo ʻomi ki he kau fakamaau,

Sai suka zuga mutanen, har da dattawa da marubuta suka tunkari Istifanus, suka kama shi, suka kawo shi gaban majalisa.

13 Pea naʻa nau ʻomi ʻae kau fakamoʻoni loi, ke nau pehē, “ʻOku ʻikai tuku ʻe he tangata ni ʻene lea kovi ki he potu māʻoniʻoni, pea mo e fono:

Suka kawo masu shaidar karya suka ce, ''Wannan mutumin har yanzu bai dena maganganun gaba akan wannan wuri mai tsarki da kuma shari'a ba.

14 He kuo mau fanongo ki heʻene pehē, Ko e Sisu ni ʻo Nāsaleti, ʻe fakaʻauha ʻe ia ʻae potu ni, pea fakakehe ʻae ngaahi ngāue naʻe foaki ʻe Mōsese kiate kitautolu.”

Domin kuwa mun ji shi, yana cewa wannan Yesu Banazarat zai rushe wannan wuri zai kuma canza al'adun da muka gada daga wurin Musa.''

15 Pea ko kinautolu kotoa pē naʻe nofo ʻi he fakamaau, naʻa nau sio fakamamaʻu kiate ia, ʻonau vakai ki hono mata kuo hangē ko e mata ʻo ha ʻāngelo.

Dukan wadanda suke zaune a majalisar suka zuba masa ido, sai suka ga fuskarsa kamar ta mala'ika.
