1وَفِي تِلْكَ ٱلْأَيَّامِ إِذْ تَكَاثَرَ ٱلتَّلَامِيذُ، حَدَثَ تَذَمُّرٌ مِنَ ٱلْيُونَانِيِّينَ عَلَى ٱلْعِبْرَانِيِّينَ أَنَّ أَرَامِلَهُمْ كُنَّ يُغْفَلُ عَنْهُنَّ فِي ٱلْخِدْمَةِ ٱلْيَوْمِيَّةِ.
1In those days when the disciples were increasing in number, the Grecian Jews among them began to grumble against the Hebraic Jews because their widows were being overlooked in the daily distribution of food.
2فَدَعَا ٱلِٱثْنَا عَشَرَ جُمْهُورَ ٱلتَّلَامِيذِ وَقَالُوا: «لَا يُرْضِي أَنْ نَتْرُكَ نَحْنُ كَلِمَةَ ٱللهِ وَنَخْدِمَ مَوَائِدَ.
2So the Twelve summoned all the disciples and said, “It is unacceptable for us to neglect the word of God in order to wait on tables.
3فَٱنْتَخِبُوا أَيُّهَا ٱلْإِخْوَةُ سَبْعَةَ رِجَالٍ مِنْكُمْ، مَشْهُودًا لَهُمْ وَمَمْلُوِّينَ مِنَ ٱلرُّوحِ ٱلْقُدُسِ وَحِكْمَةٍ، فَنُقِيمَهُمْ عَلَى هَذِهِ ٱلْحَاجَةِ.
3Therefore, brothers, select from among you seven men confirmed to be full of the Spirit and wisdom. We will appoint this responsibility to them
4وَأَمَّا نَحْنُ فَنُواظِبُ عَلَى ٱلصَّلَاةِ وَخِدْمَةِ ٱلْكَلِمَةِ».
4and will devote ourselves to prayer and to the ministry of the word.”
5فَحَسُنَ هَذَا ٱلْقَوْلُ أَمَامَ كُلِّ ٱلْجُمْهُورِ، فَٱخْتَارُوا ٱسْتِفَانُوسَ، رَجُلًا مَمْلُوًّا مِنَ ٱلْإِيمَانِ وَٱلرُّوحِ ٱلْقُدُسِ، وَفِيلُبُّسَ وَبُرُوخُورُسَ وَنِيكَانُورَ وَتِيمُونَ وَبَرْمِينَاسَ وَنِيقُولَاوُسَ دَخِيلًا أَنْطَاكِيًّا.
5This proposal pleased the whole group. They chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit, as well as Philip, Prochorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, and Nicolas from Antioch, a convert to Judaism.
6الَّذِينَ أَقَامُوهُمْ أَمَامَ ٱلرُّسُلِ، فَصَلُّوا وَوَضَعُوا عَلَيْهِمِ ٱلْأَيَادِيَ.
6They presented these seven to the apostles, who prayed and laid their hands on them.
7وَكَانَتْ كَلِمَةُ ٱللهِ تَنْمُو، وَعَدَدُ ٱلتَّلَامِيذِ يَتَكَاثَرُ جِدًّا فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَجُمْهُورٌ كَثِيرٌ مِنَ ٱلْكَهَنَةِ يُطِيعُونَ ٱلْإِيمَانَ.
7So the word of God continued to spread. The number of disciples in Jerusalem grew rapidly, and a great number of priests became obedient to the faith.
8وَأَمَّا ٱسْتِفَانُوسُ فَإِذْ كَانَ مَمْلُوًّا إِيمَانًا وَقُوَّةً، كَانَ يَصْنَعُ عَجَائِبَ وَآيَاتٍ عَظِيمَةً فِي ٱلشَّعْبِ.
8Now Stephen, who was full of grace and power, was performing great wonders and signs among the people.
9فَنَهَضَ قَوْمٌ مِنَ ٱلْمَجْمَعِ ٱلَّذِي يُقَالُ لَهُ مَجْمَعُ ٱللِّيبَرْتِينِيِّينَ وَٱلْقَيْرَوَانِيِّينَ وَٱلْإِسْكَنْدَرِيِّينَ، وَمِنَ ٱلَّذِينَ مِنْ كِيلِيكِيَّا وَأَسِيَّا، يُحَاوِرُونَ ٱسْتِفَانُوسَ.
9But resistance arose from what was called the Synagogue of the Freedmen, including Cyrenians, Alexandrians, and men from the provinces of Cilicia and Asia. They began to argue with Stephen,
10وَلَمْ يَقْدِرُوا أَنْ يُقَاوِمُوا ٱلْحِكْمَةَ وَٱلرُّوحَ ٱلَّذِي كَانَ يَتَكَلَّمُ بِهِ.
10but they could not stand up to his wisdom or the Spirit by whom he spoke.
11حِينَئِذٍ دَسُّوا لِرِجَالٍ يَقُولُونَ: «إِنَّنَا سَمِعْنَاهُ يَتَكَلَّمُ بِكَلَامِ تَجْدِيفٍ عَلَى مُوسَى وَعَلَى ٱللهِ».
11Then they prompted some men to say, “We heard Stephen speak words of blasphemy against Moses and against God.”
12وَهَيَّجُوا ٱلشَّعْبَ وَٱلشُّيُوخَ وَٱلْكَتَبَةَ، فَقَامُوا وَخَطَفُوهُ وَأَتَوْا بِهِ إِلَى ٱلْمَجْمَعِ،
12So they stirred up the people, elders, and scribes and confronted Stephen. They seized him and brought him before the Sanhedrin,
13وَأَقَامُوا شُهُودًا كَذَبَةً يَقُولُونَ: «هَذَا ٱلرَّجُلُ لَا يَفْتُرُ عَنْ أَنْ يَتَكَلَّمَ كَلَامًا تَجْدِيفًا ضِدَّ هَذَا ٱلْمَوْضِعِ ٱلْمُقَدَّسِ وَٱلنَّامُوسِ،
13where they presented false witnesses who said, “This man never stops speaking against this holy place and against the law.
14لِأَنَّنَا سَمِعْنَاهُ يَقُولُ: إِنَّ يَسُوعَ ٱلنَّاصِرِيَّ هَذَا سَيَنْقُضُ هَذَا ٱلْمَوْضِعَ، وَيُغَيِّرُ ٱلْعَوَائِدَ ٱلَّتِي سَلَّمَنَا إِيَّاهَا مُوسَى».
14For we have heard him say that Jesus of Nazareth will destroy this place and change the customs that Moses handed down to us.”
15فَشَخَصَ إِلَيْهِ جَمِيعُ ٱلْجَالِسِينَ فِي ٱلْمَجْمَعِ، وَرَأَوْا وَجْهَهُ كَأَنَّهُ وَجْهُ مَلَاكٍ.
15All who were sitting in the Sanhedrin looked intently at Stephen, and they saw that his face was like the face of an angel.
