Testamenta Marra (Dieri New Testament)
1And in those days, the number of the disciples increasing, there arose a murmuring of the Greeks against the Hebrews, for that their widows were neglected in the daily ministration.
1Tanangupini ditjini mili morla marapu pantjinani, Grieka kana buljubuljurina wonti Juda kanani, ngangau tanali tanani mangawaru kuritarana wonti ditji pratjanaia jinkini.
2Then the twelve calling together the multitude of the disciples, said: It is not reason that we should leave the word of God, and serve tables.
2Marapratjana ja mandrujeli mili wolara jela karkana wonti ja jatana wonti: „Jenia wata ngumu nganai, ngaiana Godaia jaura worani patanani ja kurlia mili ngamanani.
3Wherefore, brethren, look ye out among you seven men of good reputation, full of the Holy Ghost and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business.
3Ngatata worajai! Materi mara wora ja mandru jurangundru wontianau, tanangundru kana ngumu jatai, Jaolali kulikirieli ja kirieli manamiri, tanana ngaiana kurananto nunkangupini manginani.
4But we will give ourselves continually to prayer, and to the ministry of the word.
4Ngaiana milingeru ngatjinanto ja Godaia jauraia ngamalkijiribananto.“
5And the saying was liked by all the multitude. And they chose Stephen, a man full of faith, and of the Holy Ghost, and Philip, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicolas, a proselyte of Antioch.
5Ja mili wolarali ninapini jaura ngantjana wonti; ja tanali Stephanus, kana kulno morlalu ngundrani, ja Jaolali kulikirieli manamiri, kalkalkana wonti, ja Philippus ja Prochorus ja Nikanor ja Timon ja Parmenas, ja Juda kanaia kamaneli Nikolaus Antiochiala.
6These they set before the apostles; and they praying, imposed hands upon them.
6Tananapini tanali Apostel worangu terkibana wonti, ja tanali matja ngatjina, tanali tanangu mara kuraterina wonti.
7And the word of the Lord increased; and the number of the disciples was multiplied in Jerusalem exceedingly: a great multitude also of the priests obeyed the faith.
7Ja Godaia jaura punkana wonti, ja mili pirna marapurina wonti Jerusalemani, ja bakana Priesta marapujeli morlalu ngundranani pankina wonti. (Dakani jaura Stephani ditjini.)
8And Stephen, full of grace and fortitude, did great wonders and signs among the people.
8Stephanulu, morlalu ngundranali ja ngurulali manamiri, pirnala ja malka pirna kana wolarani ngankana wonti.
9Now there arose some of that which is called the synagogue of the Libertines, and of the Cyrenians, and of the Alexandrians, and of them that were of Cilicia and Asia, disputing with Stephen.
9Palpa terkakana wonti tanangundru, tana Libertinaia ja Kyrenaia ja Alexandrinaia jaura pungandru nganana wonti, ja tanangundru, tana Ciliciala ja Asiala nganana wonti, Stephanusungu tjurbuwijiribamalila.
10And they were not able to resist the wisdom and the spirit that spoke.
10Ja tana ngandandarina wonti tjakakala kirilani ja jaolani, waninali nulu kaukaubana wonti.
11Then they suborned men to say, they had heard him speak words of blasphemy against Moses and against God.
11Ngadani tanali palpali manawalkurali jinkina wonti, tana jatananto: „Ngaiani ninaia ngarana warai ngirkibani jaura jatanani Mosingu ju Godangu.“
12And they stirred up the people, and the ancients, and the scribes; and running together, they took him, and brought him to the council.
12Ja tanali kana wolara ja pinaru ja jaura jinkinietja patijiritjibana wonti, ja wokarana wonti, ja tanali nina diadialkana wonti, ja nina kana kaparani wapalkana wonti,
13And they set up false witnesses, who said: This man ceaseth not to speak words against the holy place and the law.
13Ja tanali jedikantji tinkari ngankanietja terkibana wonti, tana jatana wonti: „Nulupini kanali wata mudai ngirkibani jaura jatala nunkangupini piri kulikirini ja jirijiribani jaurani.
14For we have heard him say, that this Jesus of Nazareth shall destroy this place, and shall change the traditions which Moses delivered unto us.
14Ngangau ngaiani ninaia ngarana warai jatanani: Nulupini Jesujeli Nazarethalali ninapini piri tampuribala nganai, ja tananapini mangani, tanana ngaianangu Mosili jinkina wonti, pilki kurala nganai.“
15And all that sat in the council, looking on him, saw his face as if it had been the face of an angel.
15Ja pratjana, tana kana kaparani ngamana wonti, nina ngurutalpana najina wonti, ja tanali mudla nunkani najina wonti angelaia mudla jeribaka.
