Acts 19
1 And it came to pass, that, while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul having passed through the upper country came to Ephesus, and found certain disciples:
Utuu Apholoos Qorontos keessa jiruu Phaawulos immoo biyya ol aanu keessa baʼee Efesoon dhufe; achittis barattoota tokko tokko argate.
2 and he said unto them, Did ye receive the Holy Spirit when ye believed? And they [said] unto him, Nay, we did not so much as hear whether the Holy Spirit was [given].
Innis, “Isin yeroo amantanitti Hafuura Qulqulluu argattaniirtuu?” jedhee gaafate. Isaan immoo deebisanii, “Hin arganne; nu akka Hafuurri Qulqulluun jiru iyyuu takkumaa hin dhageenye” jedhan.
3 And he said, Into what then were ye baptized? And they said, Into John’s baptism.
Phaawulosis, “Yoos cuuphaa kami cuuphamtan ree?” jedhee gaafate. Isaanis, “Cuuphaa Yohannis” jedhan.
4 And Paul said, John baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people that they should believe on him that should come after him, that is, on Jesus.
Phaawulosis, “Cuuphaan Yohannis cuuphaa qalbii jijjiirrannaa ti; Yohannis akka isaan kan isa duubaan dhufaa jirutti, jechuunis Yesuusitti amananiif namootatti hima ture” jedhe.
5 And when they heard this, they were baptized into the name of the Lord Jesus.
Isaanis waan kana dhagaʼanii maqaa Gooftaa Yesuusitti cuuphaman.
6 And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Spirit came on them; and they spake with tongues, and prophesied.
Yommuu Phaawulos harka isaan irra kaaʼetti Hafuurri Qulqulluun isaan irra buʼe; isaanis afaan haaraadhaan dubbatan; raajiis ni dubbatan.
7 And they were in all about twelve men.
Isaanis walumatti gara nama kudha lamaa turan.
8 And he entered into the synagogue, and spake boldly for the space of three months, reasoning and persuading [as to] the things concerning the kingdom of God.
Phaawulosis mana sagadaa seenee waaʼee mootummaa Waaqaa isaan wajjin falmaa, akka isaan amananiifis yaalaa, jiʼa sadii sodaa malee dubbachaa ture.
9 But when some were hardened and disobedient, speaking evil of the Way before the multitude, he departed from them, and separated the disciples, reasoning daily in the school of Tyrannus.
Isaan keessaa tokko tokko garuu mata jabeeyyii taʼan; amanuus didanii waaʼee karaa sanaa uummata duratti waan hamaa dubbatan; kanaaf Phaawulos isaan dhiisee deeme; barattootas ofitti fudhatee mana barumsaa Xiraanoos keessatti guyyuma guyyaan isaan wajjin mariʼachaa ture.
10 And this continued for the space of two years; so that all they that dwelt in Asia heard the word of the Lord, both Jews and Greeks.
Kunis waggaa lama itti fufe; kanaaf Yihuudoonnii fi Giriikonni biyya Asiyaa keessa jiraatan hundinuu dubbii Gooftaa dhagaʼan.
11 And God wrought special miracles by the hands of Paul:
Waaqni harka Phaawulosiitiin hojii dinqii kan akka malee dinqisiisu hojjechaa ture.
12 insomuch that unto the sick were carried away from his body handkerchiefs or aprons, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out.
Kanaaf maarrabiin yookaan marxoon dhagna isaa tuqe iyyuu dhukkubsattootatti geeffama ture; isaanis ni fayyu; hafuurri hamaanis isaan keessaa baʼa ture.
13 But certain also of the strolling Jews, exorcists, took upon them to name over them that had the evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, I adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preacheth.
Yihuudoonni biyya keessa nanaannaʼanii hafuurota xuraaʼoo nama keessaa baasan tokko tokkos namoota hafuura hamaan qabaman irratti maqaa Gooftaa Yesuus waamuu yaalan; isaanis, “Ani maqaa Yesuus kan Phaawulos lallabu sanaan sin ajaja” jedhan.
14 And there were seven sons of one Sceva, a Jew, a chief priest, who did this.
Ilmaan Iskoyaas, isa luba hangafa Yihuudootaa ture sanaa torbanis waan kana hojjetaniiru.
15 And the evil spirit answered and said unto them, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye?
Hafuurri hamaan sun garuu, “Ani Yesuusin beeka; waaʼee Phaawulosis beeka; isin immoo eenyu?” jedhee deebiseef.
16 And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, and mastered both of them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded.
Namichi hafuura hamaan qabame sunis isaanitti utaale; hunda isaaniis moʼate; ni tumes; isaanis madaaʼanii qullaa isaanii mana keessaa baʼanii baqatan.
17 And this became known to all, both Jews and Greeks, that dwelt at Ephesus; and fear fell upon them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified.
Kunis Yihuudootaa fi Giriikota Efesoon keessa jiraatan hunda biratti beekame; isaan hundis sodaan guutaman; maqaan Gooftaa Yesuusis baayʼee kabajame.
18 Many also of them that had believed came, confessing, and declaring their deeds.
Warra amanan keessaas baayʼeen isaanii dhufanii hojii isaanii hamaa sana ifatti baasanii himachaa turan.
19 And not a few of them that practised magical arts brought their books together and burned them in the sight of all; and they counted the price of them, and found it fifty thousand pieces of silver.
Warra falfala hojjechaa turan keessaas namoonni baayʼeen kitaabota isaanii walitti qabanii fuula uummataa duratti guban; gatiin kitaabota sanaas yommuu shallagametti gara meetii kuma shantama taʼe.
20 So mightily grew the word of the Lord and prevailed.
Haala kanaanis dubbiin Gooftaa akka malee babalʼate; humnaanis guddate.
21 Now after these things were ended, Paul purposed in the spirit, when he had passed through Macedonia and Achaia, to go to Jerusalem, saying, After I have been there, I must also see Rome.
Erga wanni kun hundinuu taʼee booddee Phaawulos Maqedooniyaa fi Akaayaa keessa darbee Yerusaalem dhaquu murteeffate; innis, “Ani ergan achi gaʼee booddee Roomaas dhaquun qaba” jedhe.
22 And having sent into Macedonia two of them that ministered unto him, Timothy and Erastus, he himself stayed in Asia for a while.
Innis gargaartota isaa keessaa nama lama jechuunis Xiimotewosii fi Erisxoosin Maqedooniyaatti ergee ofii immoo yeroof biyya Asiyaa keessa ture.
23 And about that time there arose no small stir concerning the Way.
Gidduma sana waaʼee karaa sanaa irratti gooliin guddaan uumame.
24 For a certain man named Demetrius, a silversmith, who made silver shrines of Diana, brought no little business unto the craftsmen;
Tumtuun meetii kan Dimeexiroos jedhamu tokko fakkii mana qulqullummaa Arxemiisi meetii irraa hojjechuun ogeeyyii hojii harkaatiif galii guddaa galchaa ture.
25 whom he gathered together, with the workmen of like occupation, and said, Sirs, ye know that by this business we have our wealth.
Innis isaan hundaa fi namoota hojii akkasii qaban kaan walitti waamee akkana jedheen; “Yaa namoota nana, akka nu hojii kana irraa galii guddaa argannu ni beektu.
26 And ye see and hear, that not alone at Ephesus, but almost throughout all Asia, this Paul hath persuaded and turned away much people, saying that they are no gods, that are made with hands:
Isin akka namichi Phaawulos jedhamu kun utuu Efesoon qofatti hin taʼin guutummaa biyya Asiyaa gara caalu keessattis akka waaqonni harka namaatiin tolfaman waaqota hin taʼin dubbachuudhaan nama hedduu amansiisee karaa irraa balleesse ni argitu; ni dhageessus.
27 and not only is there danger that this our trade come into disrepute; but also that the temple of the great goddess Diana be made of no account, and that she should even be deposed from her magnificence whom all Asia and the world worshippeth.
Kanaafuu akka maqaan hojii keenyaa inni gaariin sun badu sodaan jira; garuu kana qofa utuu hin taʼin manni sagadaa Arxemiisi waaqittii guddoo sanaa iyyuu ni salphata; waaqittiin biyya Asiyaa guutuu fi addunyaa keessatti waaqeffatamtu mataan ishee iyyuu ulfina waaqummaa ishee ni dhabdi.”
28 And when they heard this they were filled with wrath, and cried out, saying, Great [is] Diana of the Ephesians.
Isaanis yommuu waan kana dhagaʼanitti akka malee aaranii, “Arxemiisiin warra Efesoon guddoo dha!” jedhanii iyyan.
29 And the city was filled with the confusion: and they rushed with one accord into the theatre, having seized Gaius and Aristarchus, men of Macedonia, Paul’s companions in travel.
Yommusuma magaalattiin ni raafamte; namoonni sunis miiltota Phaawulos kanneen Maqedooniyaadhaa dhufan jechuunis Gaayoosii fi Arisxirokoosin qabanii akkuma nama tokkootti gara iddoo itti tapha argisiisanii girrisanii fiigan.
30 And when Paul was minded to enter in unto the people, the disciples suffered him not.
Phaawulos uummatatti mulʼachuu barbaade; barattoonni garuu hin eeyyamneef.
31 And certain also of the Asiarchs, being his friends, sent unto him and besought him not to adventure himself into the theatre.
Qondaaltota biyya Asiyaa warra michoota Phaawulos turan keessaas tokko tokko nama isatti erganii akka inni iddoo itti tapha argisiisan sana hin dhaqne isa kadhatan.
32 Some therefore cried one thing, and some another: for the assembly was in confusion; and the more part knew not wherefore they were come together.
Yaaʼichis wacaan guutame: Garri tokko waan tokko, garri kaan waan biraa iyye. Garri caalaan isaanii immoo waan achitti walitti qabamaniif illee hin beekne.
33 And they brought Alexander out of the multitude, the Jews putting him forward. And Alexander beckoned with the hand, and would have made a defence unto the people.
Yihuudoonnis Iskindiroosin dhiibanii fuula uummataa duratti baafnaan, namoonni tokko tokko uummata keessaa iyyanii gorsa kennaniif; innis uummata duratti falmachuuf jedhee akka namoonni calʼisaniif harkaan mallattoo kenne.
34 But when they perceived that he was a Jew, all with one voice about the space of two hours cried out, Great [is] Diana of the Ephesians.
Yommuu akka inni Yihuudii taʼe hubatanitti garuu isaan hundinuu sagalee tokkoon, “Arxemiisiin warra Efesoon guddoo dha!” jedhanii gara saʼaatii lamaa iyyaa turan.
35 And when the townclerk had quieted the multitude, he saith, Ye men of Ephesus, what man is there who knoweth not that the city of the Ephesians is temple-keeper of the great Diana, and of the [image] which fell down from Jupiter?
Barreessaan magaalaa sanaas uummata calʼisiisee akkana jedhe; “Yaa namoota Efesoon, akka magaalaan Efesoon kun eegduu mana sagadaa Arxemiisi guddittiitii fi fakkii ishee kan samii irraa buʼe sanaa taate namni hin beekne jiraa?
36 Seeing then that these things cannot be gainsaid, ye ought to be quiet, and to do nothing rash.
Kanaaf waan namni dhugaa kana falmu hin jirreef isin calʼisuu qabdu; waan tokko illee jarjarsuun hojjechuu hin qabdan.
37 For ye have brought [hither] these men, who are neither robbers of temples nor blasphemers of our goddess.
Isaan mana sagadaa saamuu yookaan waaqittii keenya arrabsuu baatan illee isin jara kana as fiddaniirtu.
38 If therefore Demetrius, and the craftsmen that are with him, have a matter against any man, the courts are open, and there are proconsuls: let them accuse one another.
Kanaaf Dimeexiroosii fi ogeeyyiin isa wajjin jiran sun yoo waan ittiin nama tokko iyyuu himatan qabaatan manneen murtii banaa dha; bulchitoonni biyyaas jiru. Isaan himata qaban achitti haa dhiʼeeffatan.
39 But if ye seek anything about other matters, it shall be settled in the regular assembly.
Yoo wanni biraa kan isin dhiʼeeffachuu barbaaddan tokko iyyuu jiraate garuu wanni sun yaaʼii seera qabeessa irratti ilaalama.
40 For indeed we are in danger to be accused concerning this day’s riot, there being no cause [for it]: and as touching it we shall not be able to give account of this concourse.
Nu wal gaʼii kanaaf sababii dhiʼeeffachuu dandeenyu waan hin qabneef goolii harʼa taʼe kanatti akka gaafatamnu sodaa qabna.”
41 And when he had thus spoken, he dismissed the assembly.
Innis erga waan kana dubbatee booddee waldaa sana gad lakkise.
