¹Zvino mupristi mukuru akati: Zvinhu izvi zvakadai here?

¹O baro rashai phushlia katar o Stephen te si chaches.

²Zvino akati: Varume, hama nemadzibaba, teererai. Mwari wekubwinya wakaonekwa kuna baba vedu Abhurahamu vari muMesopotamia, vasati vagara Harani,

²O Stephen phendia, "Manushale, murhe phral, ai murhe dada ashunen: O Del le putierako sikadilo amare dadeske o Abraham kana sas ande Mesopotamia, mai anglal sar te beshel ando Haran, ai phendia leske.

³akati kwavari: Buda munyika yako nekuhama dzako, uuye kunyika yandichakuratidza.

³Zhatar anda cho them, ai mek che niamuria, ai zha ando them kai sikavava tuke.

⁴Zvino vakabuda munyika yevaKaradhia, vakagara muHarani; zvino kubva ipapo shure kwekufa kwababa vavo, wakavabvisira kunyika iyi yamunogara imwi ikozvino;

⁴Antunchi gelo anda them kai sas le Chaldeans, ai avilo ando Haran; ai kotsar, kana mulo lesko dat, O Del andia les ando them kai san tume akana.

⁵asi haana kuvapa nhaka mairi, kwete kunyange chitsiko chetsoka, asi wakavavimbisa kuvapa iyo ive yavo, neyembeu yavo shure kwavo, vasati vava nemwana.

⁵O Del chi dia les kotse chi iek kher, chi phuv te tho o punrho. Numa O Del shinadia ke dela les o them, ai kodola kai avena pala leste avela vi lengo them kana wo merela, inker ande kodia vriama o Abraham nas les glati.

⁶Mwari ndokutaura seizvi, kuti mbeu yavo ichava vatorwa kunyika yeumweni, uye ichaiita nhapwa nekuibata zvakaipa makore mazana mana;

⁶Ai eta so phendia lesko O Del, kodola kai avena pala tute traiina andek them, ai won avena slugi, ai chinuina le shtar shela bersh.

⁷asi rudzi urwo rwavachava varanda kwarwuri ndicharwutonga ini, wakadaro Mwari; uye shure kweizvozvo vachabuda vagondishumira panzvimbo ino.

⁷Numa o them kai chinuisardia le, me dava les pe kris, phendia O Del, ai porme pala kodia anklen avri, ai podaina man katse.

⁸Zvino akavapa sungano yedzingiso, naizvozvo vakabereka Isaka, vakamudzingisa zuva rerusere; naIsaka Jakobho; naJakobho mateteguru gumi nemaviri.

⁸O Del dia o Abraham o kontrakto le shinimasko: O Abraham sas les iek shav o Isaak ai shindia lesko boriko le oxtoto dies. Ai o Isaak sas o dat le Iakovosko; ai o Iakov sas les desh u dui shave.

⁹Mateteguru akazadzwa negodo, vakatengesa Josefa kuEgipita; asi Mwari waiva naye.

⁹Numa le phral le Josephoske xolaile po Joseph, ai bichinde les te avel sluga ande Egypt. Numa O Del sas lesa,

¹⁰Akamusunungura pamatambudziko ake ose, akamupa nyasha nenjere pamberi paFarao mambo weEgipita; ndokumuita mutungamiriri pamusoro peEgipita neimba yake yose.

¹⁰ai ankalavelas les anda sa leske baiuria, ai dia les te avel gojaver, ai o Joseph pelo drago le Pharaohnoske kai sas o amperato le Egyptako; ai thodia le Josephos te lel pesko vas te avel baro pe Egypt ai pe sa o kher le Pharaohnosko.

¹¹Zvino kwakauya nzara panyika yose yeEgipita neKanani, nedambudziko guru; madzibaba edu akasawana chikafu.

¹¹Rimosaile e phuv ai chi mai bariolas xaben ande Egypt ai vi ando Canaan, ai sas baro nekazo; ai amare dada chi mai arakhenas xaben te pravarenpe.

¹²Asi Jakobho wakati anzwa kuti kwaiva nezviyo kuEgipita, wakatuma madzibaba edu kwekutanga.

¹²O Iakov ashundia ke sas jiv ande Egypt, ai tradia amare daden e pervo data.

¹³Zvino kwechipiri Josefa wakaziviswa kuvanakomana vababa vake; uye rudzi rwaJosefa rwukaziviswa kuna Farao.

¹³Ai e duito data le phral le Josefoske prinzharde les; ai o Pharaohono diape gor anda che familia sas o Josef.

¹⁴Zvino Josefa akatumira akadana baba vake Jakobho nehama dzake dzose, vane mweya makumi manomwe nemishanu.

¹⁴Porme o Josef tradia te anen le Iakovos kai sas lesko dat, ai sa peska niamon kai sas eftavardesh tai panzh zhene.

¹⁵Zvino Jakobho akaburukira Egipita, ndokufa iye nemadzibaba edu;

¹⁵O Iakov avilo ande Egypt, ai mulo kotse, ai vi amare dada.

¹⁶uye vakatakurirwa Shekemi, vakaradzikwa paguva Abhurahamu raakange atenga nemutengo wesirivheri kuvanakomana vaEmori weShekemi.

¹⁶Ai angerde le ando Shechem, ai thode le ando groposhevo kai o Abraham chindiasas lovensa katar le shave le Hamoroske, o dat le Shechemosko.

¹⁷Zvino nguva yechivimbiso yakati yaswedera Mwari chaakange apikira kuna Abhurahamu, vanhu vakakura, vakawanda muEgipita,

¹⁷E vriama pasholas kai trobulas te kerdiol so O Del shinadia sas le Abrahamoske, ai o narodo butiolas ande Egypt,

¹⁸kusvikira umwe mambo amuka wakange asingazivi Josefa.

¹⁸zhi kai kerdilia aver amperato kai chi zhanelas le Josefos.

¹⁹Ndiye wakabata rudzi rwedu nemanomano, akatambudza madzibaba edu, chivarasisa vacheche vavo kuti varege kurarama.

¹⁹Kodo amperato xoxadia amare narodos, ai chinuisardia amare narodos, kana phendia lenge pe zor te meken tsinorhen te meren.

²⁰Munguva iyoyo Mozisi wakaberekwa, uye wakange akanaka kuna Mwari; ndokurerwa mumba mababa vake mwedzi mitatu.

²⁰Ande kodia vriama o Moses biandilo, ai wo sas drago ai lasho angla iakha le Devleske, sas pravardo trin shon ando kher peske dadesko;

²¹Zvino wakati araswa, mukunda waFarao akamunonga, akazvirerera iye kuti ave mwanakomana.

²¹ai kana mekle les, e shei le Pharoahnoske lia les, ai bariardia les sar ta avino lako shav.

²²Mozisi akadzidziswa muuchenjeri hwese hwevaEgipita; akava nesimba pamashoko nepamabasa.

²²O Moses sas sichardo ande sa e goji le Egyptonge, ai zuralo sas kana divinilas ai kana kerel vari so.

²³Zvino makore makumi mana akati asvika kwaari, zvakasvika mumoyo make kushanyira hama dzake, vana vaIsraeri.

²³Shtarvardesh bershengo sas kana avilia leske po ilo te zhal te dikhel peske phralen kai sas Zhiduvuria.

²⁴Zvino achiona umwe achiitirwa zvisakarurama, akamurwira ndokutsivira wakange achitambudzwa, akarova muEgipita;

²⁴Dikhlia sar marenas iekes, ai mardia pe wo anda kuko kai sas mardo, ai dia iek le Egyptianos.

²⁵zvino waifunga kuti hama dzake dzichanzwisisa kuti Mwari unovapa ruponeso neruoko rwake; asi havana kunzwisisa.

²⁵Wo gindilas ke leske phral le Zhiduvuria haliarenas ke O Del si te tradel lenge o skepimos katar o Moses; numa won chi haliarde.

²⁶Zvino zuva raitevera wakazvionesa kwavari vachirwa, akavayananisa nesimba achiti: Varume, imwi muri hama; munoitiranirei zvisakarurama?

²⁶Pe terharin o Moses arakhlia duie Zhidovon kai marenaspe, ai wo manglia te aterdiarel le, ai mothol lenge, "Murhe vortacha, tume phral san, sostar maren tume?" Numa iek anda lende kai marelas pe kukulesa, spidia le Mosesos,

²⁷Zvino iye wakange achiitira umwe wake zvakaipa wakamusundidzira achiti: Ndiani wakuita mutungamiriri nemutongi pamusoro pedu?

²⁷ai phenel, "Kon thodia tu baro ai te des ame kris tu?"

²⁸Iwe unoda kundiuraya, sezvo wakauraya muEgipita zuro here?

²⁸Ai phendia leske, "Manges te mudares i man sar mudardia arachi le Egyptianos?"

²⁹Zvino neshoko iri Mozisi wakatiza, ndokuva mutorwa munyika yeMidhiani, kwaakabereka vanakomana vaviri.

²⁹Kana ashundia o Moses kodola vorbi liape an nashlo, ai gelo andek them kai bushol Midian, ai kotse sas les dui shave.

³⁰Zvino makore makumi mana akati azadziswa, kwakaonekwa kwaari murenje regomo Sinai mutumwa waIshe mumurazvo wemoto wemugwenzi.

³⁰Shtarvardesh bersh pala kodia, iek angelo sikadilo leske ande pusta kai sas o plai kai busholas Sinai ande parha kai sas ande krenzha kai phabolas.

³¹Mozisi wakati aona, akashamisika nechionekwa ichi; zvino paaiswedera kunocherekedza, inzwi raIshe rikasvika kwaari richiti:

³¹Kana dikhlia kodia o Moses, chudisailo anda so dikhlia, ai sar pasholas o glaso le Devlesko, ashundilia leske, phenelas,

³²Ndini Mwari wemadzibaba ako, Mwari waAbhurahamu, naMwari waIsaka, naMwari waJakobho. Zvino Mozisi akadedera akasashinga kucherekedza.

³²"Me sim O Del che dadengo, O Del le Abrahamosko, ai O Del le Isaakosko, ai O Del le Iakovosko. "O Moses izdralas, ai chi tromalas te dikhel.

³³Zvino Ishe akati kwaari: Kurura shangu patsoka dzako, nekuti nzvimbo yaumire pairi ivhu dzvene.

³³O Del phenel leske, "Le le papucha anda che punrhe, ke po phuv kai beshes swuntsola.

³⁴Ndaonesesa dambudziko revanhu vangu vari muEgipita, ndikanzwa kugomera kwavo, zvino ndaburuka kuzovasunungura; ikozvino uya, ndichakutuma kuEgipita.

³⁴Dikhlem o nekazo murhe narodosko kai si ande Egypt, ashundem lengo tsipimos, ai hulistem akana te ankalavav le avri. Akana zha, Me tradava tu ande Egypt.

³⁵Uyu Mozisi wavakaramba vachiti: Ndiani wakakuita mutungamiri nemutongi? ndiye Mwari waakatuma kuva mutungamiriri nemudzukunuri neruoko rwemutumwa, wakaonekwa kwaari mugwenzi.

³⁵Sa kodo Moses kai le Zhiduvuria gonisarde les, ai phende leske, "Kon thodia tu baro ai te des kris?" O Del tradia les sar baro ai skepitori la putierasa le angeloski kai sikadilia sas leske ande krenzha.

³⁶Iye akavabudisa, aita zvishamiso nezviratidzo munyika yeEgipita nemuGungwa Dzvuku, nemurenje makore makumi mana.

³⁶O Moses si kai ankaladia le Zhidovon andai Egypt, ai kai kerdia mirakluria ai semnuria ande kodo them, kai pai e loli, ai ande pusta shtarvardesh bersh.

³⁷Ndiye uya Mozisi wakati kuvana vaIsraeri: Ishe Mwari wenyu uchakumutsirai Muporofita pahama dzenyu, wakafanana neni; muchamunzwa iye.

³⁷Ai pale o Moses phendia le Zhidovonge, O Del tradela tumenge iek profeto sar mande kei avela iek anda tumaro narodo.

³⁸Uyu ndiye wakange ari mukereke murenje, ane mutumwa wakataura naye mugomo Sinai uye nemadzibaba edu; wakagamuchira mashoko mapenyu kuti atipe.

³⁸Wo si kai sas mashkar le Zhiduvuria kai sas chidine ande pusta, wo sas amare dadensa ai le angelosa kai delas duma lesa pe plaiing kai bushol Sinai, ai o Moses phendia le vorbi ka amare daden, ai lia le vorbi le Devleske te anel le amende;

³⁹Ndiye madzibaba edu wavakange vasingadi kuteerera; asi vakamusundidzira parutivi, vakadzokera kuEgipita mumoyo yavo.

³⁹Numa amare dada chi mangle te lenpe pala leste, chi mangle kodo zakono ai ande pengo ilo mangenas te zhan palpale ande Egypt.

⁴⁰Vachiti kuna Aroni: Tiitire vamwari vachatitungamirira; nekuti Mozisi uyu wakatibudisa munyika yeEgipita, hatizivi zvamuwira.

⁴⁰Ai phende ieke manusheske kai busholas Aaron, ker amenge dela kai phiren angla amende ke o Moses kai ankaladia ame avri andai Egypt, chi zhanas so kerdilia ande leste.

⁴¹Zvino vakaita mhuru mumazuva iwayo, vakauisa chibayiro kuchifananidzo, vakafara nemabasa emaoko avo.

⁴¹Ai kerde ande kodola diesa iek vitselo sumnakuno, ai mudarde ieke zhegania ai phende te avel angla vitselo, ai raduisaile savorhe anda so kerde ande penge vas.

⁴²Zvino Mwari akafuratira, akavakumikidza kuti vashumire hondo yekudenga, sezvakanyorwa mubhuku revaporofita, zvichinzi: Ko makauisa kwandiri here zvibairo nezvipo makore makumi mana murenje, imwi imba yaIsraeri?

⁴²Antunchi O Del durilo lendar, ai meklia len te rhuginpe kal chererhaia ai kal shunuto ai kal dieli kai si ando cheri; sar si ramome ande klishka le profetonge, tume narodo andai Israel, mange si kai dian le zhigenien ai ande murho anav kai mudardian le shtarvardesh bersh ande pusta?

⁴³Uye makatakura tende raMoroki, nenyeredzi yamwari wenyu Remifani, zvifananidzo zvamakaita kuti muzvinamate; uye ndichakutamisirai mberi kweBhabhironi.

⁴³Nichi, numa angerdian e tsera le Devleski kai busholas Moloch, ai e chererhai kai sas tumaro Del o Remphan, kodola patreturia kai tume kerdian te rhugin tume lende; anda kodia angerava tume mai dur de sar e Babylon.

⁴⁴Madzibaba edu aiva netende reuchapupu murenje, sekuraira kwaiye wakataura naMozisi kuti aiite nemufananidzo waakange aona;

⁴⁴Ande pusta amare dada sas le iek tsera kai sas andre ramome le zakonuria. Kodia tsera sas kerdi sar O Del phendia, sas le Mosesoske te kerel la, ai phendia sas le Mosesoske te kerel saikfielo sai kodia tsera kai dikhlia;

⁴⁵yakatiwo madzibaba edu aitevera aigamuchira, akaipinza pamwe naJoshua munhumbi dzevahedheni, Mwari vaakadzinga pamberi pechiso chemadzibaba edu, kusvika kumazuva aDhavhidhi;

⁴⁵Kodia tsera sas dini ka amaro narodo kai avilo pala amende, ai angerde la pensa kana sas o Josef o baro line o them katar le thema kai O Del gonisardia anda lende. Ai beshlo zhi kai avilo o David.

⁴⁶wakawana nyasha pamberi paMwari, akakumbira kuwanira Mwari waJakobho tende.

⁴⁶O David sas drago le Devleske, ai manglia te kerel ek kher le Devleske, pala O Del o Iakovosko.

⁴⁷Asi Soromoni wakamuvakira imba.

⁴⁷Numa o Solomon kerdia o kher le Devlesko.

⁴⁸Asi Wekumusoro-soro haagari mutembere dzakaitwa nemaoko, sezvinoreva muporofita achiti:

⁴⁸Numa O Del chi beshel anda so sas kerdo andel vas le manusheske, sar mothol o profeto.

⁴⁹Denga chigaro changu cheushe, nenyika chitsiko chetsoka dzangu; muchandivakira imba yakadini? ndizvo zvinoreva Ishe; kana nzvimbo yezororo rangu ndeipi?

⁴⁹O rhaio si murhi amperetsia ai e phuv si kai phirav savestar kher kerena mange? Mothol O Del. Vai kai avela o than kai hodiniva?

⁵⁰Ruoko rwangu haruna kuita zvinhu izvi zvose here?

⁵⁰Pate nai murho vas kai kerdia sa kadala bucha?

⁵¹Imwi vemitsipa mikukutu uye vasina kudzingiswa pamoyo nenzeve, imwi munogara muchipikisa Mweya Mutsvene; semadzibaba enyu saizvozvo imwi.

⁵³Imwi vakagamuchira murairo neurongwa hwevatumwa, asi mukasauchengeta.

⁵³Tume kai sas tume dino o zakono le Devlesko katar le angeluria, ai chi lian tume pa kado zakono.

⁵⁴Zvino vanzwa zvinhu izvi vakabayiwa pamoyo yavo, vakamugedera-gedera meno.

⁵⁴Kana ashunde kodala vorbi, xolaile, ai kristsiinas andal dand pe leste.

⁵⁵Asi iye azere neMweya Mutsvene, akatarisisa kudenga, akaona kubwinya kwaMwari, naJesu amire kuruoko rwerudyi rwaMwari,

⁵⁵Numa o Stephen kai sas pherdo Swunto Duxo, vazdia le iakha karing o rhaio, ai dikhlia o barimos le Devlesko, ai le Kristos ande punrhende sar beshelas pe rik e chachi le Devleski.

⁵⁶akati: Tarirai, ndinoona matenga akazaruka, neMwanakomana wemunhu amire kuruoko rwerudyi rwaMwari.

⁵⁶Ai phendia, "Eta, Dikhav o cheri sar si phuterdo, ai O Shav le Manushesko ande punrhende pe rik e chachi le Devleski."

⁵⁷Zvino vakadanidzira nenzwi guru, vakadzivira nzeve dzavo, vakamhanyira paari nemoyo umwe;

⁵⁷Savorhe tsipinas, ai phandade penge khan, ai savorhe xokle pe leste, ai angerde les avri anda foro, ai shude bax anda leste te mudaren les; le manush kai shudenas bax anda leste dine penge tsalia ka terno manush te garavel le, wo busholas Saul.

⁵⁸vakamubudisira kunze kweguta, ndokumutaka nemabwe; nezvapupu zvikaisa nguvo dzazvo patsoka dzejaya rainzi Sauro.

⁵⁹Ande kodia kai shudenas le baxensa anda leste o Stephen, rhugilaspe ai motholas, "Devla, le murho traio tute."

⁵⁹Zvino vakataka Sitefano nemabwe, achidana achiti: Ishe Jesu, gamuchirai mweya wangu.

⁶⁰Porme pelo ande changende, ai tsipisardia zurales, "Devla, na xoliavol pe lende anda so kerde," ai kana phendia kodola vorbi mulo.

⁶⁰Zvino wakafugama, akadanidzira nenzwi guru, achiti: Ishe, musavaverengera chivi ichi. Zvino wakati areva izvi, akarara.
