< Acts 11 >

1 And the apostles and brethren that were in Judea, heard that the Gentiles also had received the word of God.
Hawaaretinne Yihuda ubban de7iya ammaneyssati, Ayhude gidonnayssatikka Xoossaa qaala ekkidayssa si7idosona.
2 And when Peter went up to Jerusalem, those who were of the circumcision contended with him,
Phexiroosi Yerusalaame bida wode qaxxarettida ammaneyssati,
3 saying: You went in to uncircumcised men, and ate with them.
iyaakko, “Neeni qaxxarettiboonayssatakko gelada enttara kathi ays maaddii?” yaagidosona.
4 And Peter began, and laid the matter before them in order, saying:
Shin Phexiroosi hanidabaa koyroppe doomidi maaran maaran odis:
5 I was in the city of Joppa, praying; and, while in a trance, I saw a vision, some vessel like a great sheet, descending, let down from heaven by the four corners; and it came even to me.
“Taani Yoophe kataman Xoossaa woossashe qonccethi be7as. Gita afila daaniyabay oyddu baggara oykettidi saloppe wodhdhishe taakko yis.
6 When I had looked attentively into it, I observed and saw four-footed beasts of the earth, and wild beasts and creeping things and birds of the air.
Taani tishshi ootha iya giddo xeelliya wode oyddu tohora de7iya meheta, wora do7ata, ulora gooshettiya medhetethatanne salo kafota be7as.
7 And I heard a voice saying to me, Rise, Peter, kill and eat.
‘Phexiroosaa, dendda, shukkada ma’ giya qaala taani si7as.
8 But I said, By no means, Lord; for nothing common or unclean has ever entered my mouth.
“Shin taani, ‘Godaw, akkay, tunabay woykko geeyonnabay ubbaka ta doonaakko shiiqi erenna’ yaagas.
9 But the voice answered me a second time from heaven, What God has cleansed, you must not call common.
“‘Xoossay geeshshidayssa neeni tuna gooppa’ yaagiya qaalay nam77antho saloppe yis.
10 This was done the third time, and all was drawn up again into heaven.
“Hessi heedzu toho hanin, wurssethan ubbabay salo pude ekettis.
11 And behold, three men who had been sent to me from Cæsarea, immediately came to the house where I was.
He saatenkka heedzu asati Qisaariyappe taakko kiitettidi taani de7iya keetha gakki aggidosona.
12 And the Spirit commanded me to go with them without hesitation. And these six brethren accompanied me. And we entered the man’s house:
Sidhonna enttara bana mela Ayyaanay taw odis. Qassi ha usuppun ishati Yoophefe taara Qisaariya bidayssatara Qornneliyoosa soo gelida.
13 and he told us how he had seen an angel in his house, standing and saying to him, Send to Joppa and call for Simon, who is surnamed Peter;
Kiitanchchoy iya son eqqidi iyaakko, ‘Yoophe kiittada Phexiroosa geetettiya Simoona xeegisa.
14 he will tell you words by which you and all your house shall be saved.
Nenanne ne soo asa ubbaa ashshiya qaala I new odana’ gidayssa Qornneliyoos nuus odis.
15 And as I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell on them, as on us at the beginning.
“Taani haasaya doomiya wode Geeshsha Ayyaanay koyro nu bolla wodhdhidayssada entta bollaka wodhdhi aggis.
16 Then I remembered the word of the Lord, as he said, John immersed in water, but you shall be immersed in the Holy Spirit.
He wode, ‘Yohaannisi haathan xammaqis, shin hintte Geeshsha Ayyaanan xammaqettana’ yaagida Godaa qaalay taw qofettis.
17 If, then, God gave them the like gift that he gave to us who believed on the Lord Jesus Christ, what was I, that I could withstand God?
Xoossay nuus Godaa Yesuus Kiristtoosa ammanidayssatas immida imotaa Ayhude gidonnayssataska immiko, yaatin Xoossaa digganaw taani oonee?” yaagis.
18 And when they heard these things, they ceased to contend; and they glorified God, saying: Then, indeed, has God given to the Gentiles also repentance in order to life.
Entti hessa si7ida wode bantta palamaa aggidi, “Yaatin, Xoossay Ayhude gidonnayssatikka nagaraappe simmidi de7on daanada qaada immis” yaagidi Xoossaa galatidosona.
19 Now those who had been dispersed by the persecution that arose after the death of Stephen, traveled as far as Phenicia and Cyprus and Antioch, speaking the word to none but Jews.
Isxifaanose hayqos gathida gooda gaason laalettida ammaneyssati qaala Ayhudeta xalaalas odishe Finqqe, Qoophirosanne Anxookiya gakkanaw yuuyidosona.
20 But some of them were men of Cyprus and Cyrene, who, when they had come to Antioch, spoke to the Grecians, preaching the Lord Jesus.
Shin Qoophirosappenne Qerenappe yida issi issi ammaniyaa asati Anxookiya bidi, Godaa Yesuusa Wonggelaa Girike asaaskka odidosona.
21 And the hand of the Lord was with them, and a great number believed, and turned to the Lord.
Godaa wolqqay enttara de7ees; qassi daro asay ammanidi Godaakko simmidosona.
22 And the report concerning them came to the ears of the church that was in Jerusalem; and they sent out Barnabas to go as far as Antioch.
He odaa Yerusalaamen de7iya woosa keethay si7ida gisho Barnnabaasa Anxookiya kiittis.
23 When he had come, and had seen the grace of God, he rejoiced; and he exhorted them all to remain, with purpose of heart, faithful to the Lord.
Barnnabaasi Anxookiya bida wode Xoossaa aadho keehatethaa oosuwa be7idi ufayttis. Entti ubbay bantta kumetha wozanan Godan minnidi daana mela entta zoris.
24 For he was a good man, and full of the Holy Spirit and of faith. And a great multitude was added to the Lord.
Barnnabaasi Geeshsha Ayyaanaynne ammanoy kumida lo77o asi gidiya gisho daro asay Godaa ammanidosona.
25 And Barnabas went to Tarsus, to seek for Saul;
Hessafe guye, Barnnabaasi Saa7ola koyanaw Terseese bis.
26 and when he had found him, he brought him to Antioch. And it came to pass, that they met together in the church for a whole year, and taught a great multitude; and the disciples were called Christians first at Antioch.
Yan Saa7ola demmida wode Anxookiya ekkidi yis. Barnnabaasinne Saa7oli woosa keetha asaara laythi kumethi uttidi daro asaa tamaarssidosona. Ammaneyssati Anxookiyan “Kiristtaane” geetettidi koyro xeegettidosona.
27 In those days prophets came from Jerusalem to Antioch.
He wode issi issi nabeti Yerusalaameppe Anxookiya wodhdhidosona.
28 And one of them, named Agabus, rose and made known, by the Spirit, that a great famine was about to come on the whole habitable land; which took place in the days of Claudius.
Entta giddofe Agaboosa geyssi denddidi biitta ubban gita koshi keyanayssa Ayyaana wolqqan tinbbite odis. Hessi haniday Roome Kawuwa Qalawudiyoosa wodena.
29 And every one of the disciples determined, as he had the means, to send relief to the brethren that dwelt in Judea;
Ammaneyssati huu7en huu7en bantta wolqqaa mela miishe kessidi Yihudan de7iya ammaneyssatas maade yeddanaw qofa qachchidosona.
30 which also they did; and they sent it to the elders by the hands of Barnabas and Saul.
Entti hessada oothidi, miishiya Barnnabaasa bollanne Saa7ola bolla woosa keethaa cimatas yeddidosona.
