¹Now in these days, when the number of the disciples was multiplying, there arose a murmuring of the Grecian Jews against the Hebrews, because their widows were neglected in the daily ministration.

¹Ai antunchi le slugi mai butionas, le Zhiduvuria kai denas duma grekchisko vachinas pe pal Zhiduvuria kodole themeske, ke lenge zhuvlia kai sas phivlia chidenas le so trobulas le swako dies.

²And the twelve called the multitude of the disciples unto them, and said, It is not fit that we should forsake the word of God, and serve tables.

²Le desh u dui disipluria chide andek than sa le kolavre slugen ai phende lenge, nai mishto te terduas te mothas po Del ai te la sama katar o xabe.

³Look ye out therefore, brethren, from among you seven men of good report, full of the Spirit and of wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business.

³Anda kodia murhe phral, alon mashkar tumende efta mursh, kai zhal pa lende shukar xiro, ai kai si pherdo Swunto Duxo ande lende, ai gojaver, ai dasa lende kadia buchi.

⁴But we will continue stedfastly in prayer, and in the ministry of the word.

⁴Ai ame rodasa te das mai but vriama ka rhugimos, ai kai vorba le Devleski.

⁵And the saying pleased the whole multitude: and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit, and Philip, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicolaus a proselyte of Antioch;

⁵So phende pa kodola bucha sa o narodo drago sas lenge; ai thode iekes kai busholas Stephen, kodo manush sas pherdo pachamos ai O Swunto Duxo, ai vi o Philip, ai Prochorus, ai Nicanor, ai Timon, ai Parmenas, ai Nicolas, iek manush andai Antioch kai mai anglal wo pachalaspe sar le Zhiduvuria.

⁶whom they set before the apostles: and when they had prayed, they laid their hands upon them.

⁶Andine le kal slugi kai kana rhugisaile thode le vas pe lende.

⁷And the word of God increased; and the number of the disciples multiplied in Jerusalem exceedingly; and a great company of the priests were obedient to the faith.

⁷E Vorba le Devleski zhalas mai dur ai mai dur, ai le slugi mai butionas but anda Jerusalem; ai but andal rasha vi won, dine pe le Devleske.

⁸And Stephen, full of grace and power, wrought great wonders and signs among the people.

⁸O Stephen, kai sas pherdo lashimos ai pherdo putiera, kerelas bari bucha andel Devlesko anav, ai bare mirakluria mashkar o narodo.

⁹But there arose certain of them that were of the synagogue called [the synagogue] of the Libertines, and of the Cyrenians, and of the Alexandrians, and of them of Cilicia and Asia, disputing with Stephen.

⁹Uni manush nas dakordo le Stephenosa, won sas andai synagogue, won bushonas Libertianes ai Cyrenians, ai Alexandrians, le Zhiduvonsa andai Cilicia ai andai Asia.

¹⁰And they were not able to withstand the wisdom and the Spirit by which he spake.

¹⁰Numa nashtinas te inkeren pala leski goji ai pala Swunto Duxo kai delas duma pa lesko mui.

¹¹Then they suborned men, who said, We have heard him speak blasphemous words against Moses, and [against] God.

¹¹Antunchi pochinde avre manushenge, te mothon, "Ashundiam leste ke delas duma ai marelas mui katar o Moses, ai katar O Del."

¹²And they stirred up the people, and the elders, and the scribes, and came upon him, and seized him, and brought him into the council,

¹²Xoliarde o narodos, ai le mai phure, ai kodola kai ramonas o zakono, ai porme pashile pashai Stephen, ai line les, ai angerde les kal mai bare.

¹³and set up false witnesses, who said, This man ceaseth not to speak words against this holy place, and the law:

¹³Ai andine manushen kai xoxavenas ai thonas dosh pe leste intaino, won mothonas, "Kado manush marel mui katar amari Swunto tampla, ai katar o zakono le Mosesosko;

¹⁴for we have heard him say, that this Jesus of Nazareth shall destroy this place, and shall change the customs which Moses delivered unto us.

¹⁴Ke ame ashundiam leste, kai phendia ke O Jesus kai sas andai Nazareth peravela kadia tampla, ai parhuvel o zakono kai dia ame o Moses."

¹⁵And all that sat in the council, fastening their eyes on him, saw his face as it had been the face of an angel.

¹⁵Sa le manush kai sas kotse ande kodo than, dikhenas po Stephen, ai dikhle ke lesko mui sas sar ieke angelosko.
