Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1And in those days, when the number of the disciples was multiplied, there arose a murmuring of the Grecians against the Hebrews, because their widows were neglected in the daily ministration.
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.
2Then the twelve called the multitude of the disciples unto them , and said, It is not reason that we should leave the word of God, and serve tables.
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.
3Wherefore, brethren, look ye out among you seven men of honest report, full of the Holy Ghost and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business.
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.
4But we will give ourselves continually to prayer, and to the ministry of the word.
4A e hooikaika mau makou i ka pule, a me ka hoike olelo.
5¶ And the saying pleased the whole 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:
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.
6Whom they set before the apostles: and when they had prayed, they laid their hands on them.
6Hoonohoia iho la lakou imua o ka poe lunaolelo; a pule ae la lakou, a kau iho la i na lima maluna o lakou.
7And the word of God increased; and the number of the disciples multiplied in Jerusalem greatly; and a great company of the priests were obedient to the faith.
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.
8And Stephen, full of faith and power, did great wonders and miracles among the people.
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.
9¶ Then there arose certain of the synagogue, which is called the synagogue of the Libertines, and Cyrenians, and Alexandrians, and of them of Cilicia and of Asia, disputing with Stephen.
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.
10And they were not able to resist the wisdom and the spirit by which he spake.
10Aole nae i hiki ia lakou ke ku imua o ke akamai a me ke koikoi o kana olelo ana.
11Then they suborned men, which said, We have heard him speak blasphemous words against Moses, and against God.
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.
12And they stirred up the people, and the elders, and the scribes, and came upon him , and caught him, and brought him to the council,
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.
13And set up false witnesses, which said, This man ceaseth not to speak blasphemous words against this holy place, and the law:
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:
14For we have heard him say, that this Jesus of Nazareth shall destroy this place, and shall change the customs which Moses delivered us.
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.
15And all that sat in the council, looking stedfastly on him, saw his face as it had been the face of an angel.
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.
