¹But in those days, the disciples multiplying in number, there arose a murmuring of the Hellenists against the Hebrews because their widows were overlooked 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, having called the multitude of the disciples to [them], said, It is not right that we, leaving the word of God, should 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 out therefore, brethren, from among yourselves seven men, well reported of, full of [the] [Holy] Spirit and wisdom, whom we will establish 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 give ourselves up to prayer and 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 [the] Holy Spirit, and Philip, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicolas, 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, having prayed, they laid their hands on 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 in Jerusalem was very greatly multiplied, and a great crowd of the priests obeyed 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 wonders and great 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.

⁹And there arose up certain of those of the synagogue called of freedmen, and of Cyrenians, and of Alexandrians, and of those 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 resist the wisdom and the Spirit with which he spoke.

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

¹¹Then they suborned men, saying, We have heard him speaking blasphemous words against Moses and God.

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

¹²And they roused the people, and the elders, and the scribes. And coming upon [him] they seized him and brought [him] to 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 they set false witnesses, saying, This man does not cease speaking words against the 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 saying, This Jesus the Nazaraean shall destroy this place, and change the customs which Moses taught 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 who sat in the council, looking fixedly on him, saw his face as [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.
