Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1I A manawa, i ka wa i mahuahua'i na haumana, ohumu iho la ka poe Helene i ka poe Hebera; no ka mea, ua malama ole ia ko lakou poe wahinekanemake i ka manawalea ana i kela la i keia la.
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.
2Alaila, hoakoakoa iho la ka umikumamalua i na haumana a pau, i mai la, Aole e pono ia makou, ke waiho wale i ka olelo a ke Akua, a e malama i na papa ai.
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.
3No ia mea, e imi oukou, e na hoahanau, i mau kanaka i ehiku iwaena o oukou, a i ike pono ia, a piha hoi i ka Uhane Hemolele, a me ke akamai, a e hoonoho kakou ia lakou maluna o keia oihana.
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.
4A e hooikaika mau makou i ka pule, a me ka hoike olelo.
4But we will give ourselves continually to prayer, and to the ministry of the word.
5Ua pono keia olelo imua o na kanaka a pau; a wae mai la lakou ia Setepano, he kanaka piha loa i ka manaoio a me ka Uhane Hemolele, a me Pilipo, a me Perokoro, a me Nikanora, a me Timona, a me Paremena, a me Nikolao ka mea i huli mai no Anetioka.
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.
6Hoonohoia iho la lakou imua o ka poe lunaolelo; a pule ae la lakou, a kau iho la i na lima maluna o lakou.
6These they set before the apostles; and they praying, imposed hands upon them.
7Hoolahaia ae ka olelo a ke Akua, a mahuahua nui aku la ka poe haumana ma Ierusalema; a he nui no na mea o ka poe kahuna i manaoio.
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.
8A ua piha o Setepano i ka manaoio a me ka mana, hana no ia i na mea mana, a me na mea kupanaha loa, iwaena o na kanaka.
8And Stephen, full of grace and fortitude, did great wonders and signs among the people.
9Aka, ku mai la kekahi poe no ka halehalawai i kapaia o na Liberetino, a me ko Kurene, a me ko Alekanederia, a me ko Kilikia, a me ko Asia, hoopaapaa mai la lakou ia Setepano.
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.
10Aole nae i hiki ia lakou ke ku imua o ke akamai a me ke koikoi o kana olelo ana.
10And they were not able to resist the wisdom and the spirit that spoke.
11Alaila, hoowalewale aku la lakou i mau kanaka, e olelo mai penei, Ua lohe makou ia ia nei e olelo ana i na olelo hoino ia Mose, a me ke Akua.
11Then they suborned men to say, they had heard him speak words of blasphemy against Moses and against God.
12Hookonokono ae la lakou i na kanaka, a me na lunakahiko, a me ka poe kakauolelo, a lele mai la lakou, a hopu iho la ia ia, a alakai aku la imua o ka ahalunakanawai.
12And they stirred up the people, and the ancients, and the scribes; and running together, they took him, and brought him to the council.
13A hoonoho mai la lakou i mau mea hoike wahahee: i mai la lakou, Aole hooki keia kanaka i ka olelo ana i na olelo hoino i keia wahi hoano, a me ke kanawai:
13And they set up false witnesses, who said: This man ceaseth not to speak words against the holy place and the law.
14No ka mea, ua lohe no makou ia ia e olelo ana, O Iesu no Nazareta, e hoohiolo no ia i keia wahi, a e hoololi hou no ia i na oihana a Mose i haawi mai ai na kakou.
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.
15A o ka poe a pau o noho ana ma kahi hookolokolo, haka pono aku la ia ia, a ike iho la i kona maka me he maka anela la.
15And all that sat in the council, looking on him, saw his face as if it had been the face of an angel.
