1Eta egun hetan nola discipuluac multiplicatzen baitziraden, eguin cedin Grecoén murmuratzebat Hebraicoén contra ceren menospreciatzen baitziraden cerbitzu ordinarioan hayén emazte alhargunac.
1And in these days, the disciples multiplying, there came a murmuring of the Hellenists at the Hebrews, because their widows were being overlooked in the daily ministration,
2Halacotz hamabiéc discipuluzco compainiá deithuric, erran ceçaten, Ezta raçoin guc Iaincoaren hitza vtziric mahainac cerbitza ditzagun.
2and the twelve, having called near the multitude of the disciples, said, `It is not pleasing that we, having left the word of God, do minister at tables;
3Hautaitzaçue beraz, anayeác, çuetaric çazpi guiçon testimoniage onetacoric, Spiritu sainduaz eta sapientiaz betheac, eta cargu haur emanen baitrauègu.
3look out, therefore, brethren, seven men of you who are well testified of, full of the Holy Spirit and wisdom, whom we may set over this necessity,
4Eta guçaz den becembatean orationeari eta hitzaren administrationeari iarreiquiren gniaizquió.
4and we to prayer, and to the ministration of the word, will give ourselves continually.`
5Eta propos haur compainia guciaren gogaraco içan cen: eta elegi citzaten Esteben, guiçon fedez eta Spiritu sainduaz bethea, eta Philippe, eta Prochoro, eta Nicanor, eta Timon, eta Parmenas, eta Nicolas proselyto Antiocheanoa:
5And the thing was pleasing before all the multitude, and they did choose Stephen, a man full of faith and the Holy Spirit, and Philip, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicolaus, a proselyte of Antioch,
6Hauc presenta citzaten Apostoluén aitzinera, eta hec othoitze eguinic escuac gainean paussa cietzén.
6whom they did set before the apostles, and they, having prayed, laid on them [their] hands.
7Eta Iaincoaren hitza aitzinaratzen cen, eta haguitz multiplicatzen cen discipuluén contua Ierusalemen: Sacrificadoretaric-ere tropel handiac fedea obeditzen çuen.
7And the word of God did increase, and the number of the disciples did multiply in Jerusalem exceedingly; a great multitude also of the priests were obedient to the faith.
8Eta Estebenec betheric fedez eta botherez, eguiten çuen miraculu eta signo handiric populuan.
8And Stephen, full of faith and power, was doing great wonders and signs among the people,
9Eta altcha citecen batzu, Libertinén, eta Cyreneanoén eta Alexandrianoén, eta Ciliciaco eta Asiaco diradenén deitzen den synagogatic, disputatzen ciradela Estebenequin.
9and there arose certain of those of the synagogue, called of the Libertines, and Cyrenians, and Alexandrians, and of those from Cilicia, and Asia, disputing with Stephen,
10Eta ecin resisti ceçaqueoten sapientiari eta hura minça eraciten çuen Spirituari.
10and they were not able to resist the wisdom and the spirit with which he was speaking;
11Orduan suborna citzaten guiçon batzu erraiten çutenic, Ençun dugu hori erraiten hitz blasphemiotacoric Moysesen eta Iaincoaren contra.
11then they suborned men, saying — `We have heard him speaking evil sayings in regard to Moses and God.`
12Eta moui citzaten populua eta Ancianoac eta Scribác: eta oldarturic harrapa ceçaten hura, eta eraman ceçaten conseillura.
12They did stir up also the people, and the elders, and the scribes, and having come upon [him], they caught him, and brought [him] to the sanhedrim;
13Eta presenta citzaten testimonio falsuac erraiten çutenic, Guiçon haur ezta ichiltzen blasphemiotaco hitz erraitetic leku saindu hunen, eta Leguearen contra.
13they set up also false witnesses, saying, `This one doth not cease to speak evil sayings against this holy place and the law,
14Ecen ençun vkan dugu haur erraiten, ecen Iesus Nazareno horrec deseguinen duela leku haur, eta muthaturen dituela Moysesec eman drauzquigun ordenançác.
14for we have heard him saying, That this Jesus the Nazarean shall overthrow this place, and shall change the customs that Moses delivered to us;`
15Eta beguiac harenganat egotziric, conseilluan iarriric ceuden guciéc ikus ceçaten haren beguithartea quasi Aingueru baten beguithartea beçalaco.
15and gazing at him, all those sitting in the sanhedrim saw his face as it were the face of a messenger.
