Kohhran hmasa hruaitute zinga mi pakhat chu a hming Stephena a ni a. Mi hming ṭha, finna leh Thlarau Thianghlima khat a ni. Stephena chuan thilmak tam tak a ti a, mite chu awihawm takin Isua chu ring turin a sawipui ṭhin.

An thin a rim ta em em a, sakhaw hruaitute hnênah Stephena chungchang chu dawtin an hêk ta a. Anni chuan, “Pathian leh Mosia a sawichhiat thu kan hria!” an ti a. Tichuan, sakhaw hruaitute chuan Stephena chu an man a, puithiam lalber leh Juda hruaitu dangte hnênah an kalpui a, chutah chuan a hma aia tam zawk hretu derte chuan Stephena chu dawtin an hek ta a ni.

Puithiam lalber chuan Stephena hnênah, “Hengte hi a dik em?” tiin a zawt a.

Chumi ni chuan Jerusalema mi tamtakin Isua zuitute chu an tiduhdah ṭan ta a, tichuan, ringtute chu hmun dangahte an tlanchhe ta a.
