Acts 1
1 In my first book, O Theophilus, I wrote about all that Jesus began to do and to teach,
Yaa Tewofilos, ani waan Yesuus hojjechuu fi barsiisuu jalqabe hunda kitaaba koo kan jalqabaa keessatti barreesseera.
2 until the day He was taken up to heaven, after giving instructions through the Holy Spirit to the apostles He had chosen.
Wanni kunis waan erga Yesuus ergamoota filate sanaaf karaa hafuura qulqulluutiin ajaja kennee booddee hamma gaafa inni Samiitti ol fudhatameetti taʼee dha.
3 After His suffering, He presented Himself to them with many convincing proofs that He was alive. He appeared to them over a span of forty days and spoke about the kingdom of God.
Innis duʼa isaa booddee namoota kanatti of argisiisee waan akka inni jiraataa taʼe mirkaneessu baayʼees dhiʼeesse; bultii afurtama isaanitti mulʼatee waaʼee mootummaa Waaqaa dubbate.
4 And while they were gathered together, He commanded them: “Do not leave Jerusalem, but wait for the gift the Father promised, which you have heard Me discuss.
Utuu isaan wajjin jiruus akkana jedhee isaan ajaje; “Waadaa Abbaa kootii kan waaʼee isaa narraa dhageessan sana eeggadhaa malee Yerusaalemii hin baʼinaa.
5 For John baptized with water, but in a few days you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.”
Yohannis bishaaniin cuupheetii; isin garuu bultii xinnoo booddee Hafuura Qulqulluudhaan ni cuuphamtu.”
6 So when they came together, they asked Him, “Lord, will You at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?”
Isaanis yommuu walitti qabamanitti, “Yaa Gooftaa, ati yeroo kanatti Israaʼeliif mootummaa ni deebiftaa?” jedhanii isa gaafatan.
7 Jesus replied, “It is not for you to know times or seasons that the Father has fixed by His own authority.
Inni immoo akkana isaaniin jedhe; “Yeroo yookaan guyyaa Abbaan aangoo isaatiin murteesse beekuun hojii keessan miti.
8 But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you, and you will be My witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”
Yeroo hafuurri Qulqulluun isin irra buʼutti garuu humna ni argattu; isinis Yerusaalem keessatti, Yihuudaa hundaa fi Samaariyaa keessatti, hamma qarqara lafaattis dhuga baatota koo ni taatu.”
9 After He had said this, they watched as He was taken up, and a cloud hid Him from their sight.
Erga inni waan kana dubbatee booddee utuma isaan ilaalanuu ol fudhatame; duumessis ija isaanii duraa isa dhokse.
10 They were looking intently into the sky as He was going, when suddenly two men dressed in white stood beside them.
Yeroo inni ol baʼaa turettis, utuma isaan xiyyeeffatanii gara Samii ilaalaa jiranuu namoonni uffata adaadii uffatan lama isaan bira dhadhaabatan.
11 “Men of Galilee,” they said, “why do you stand here looking into the sky? This same Jesus, who has been taken from you into heaven, will come back in the same way you have seen Him go into heaven.”
Akkanas jedhaniin; “Yaa namoota Galiilaa, isin maaliif as dhadhaabattanii gara Samii ilaaltu? Yesuus innumti isin biraa samiitti ol fudhatame kun, akkuma isin utuu inni samiitti ol baʼuu argitan kana deebiʼee ni dhufa.”
12 Then they returned to Jerusalem from the Mount of Olives, which is near the city, a Sabbath day’s journey away.
Isaanis gaara Tulluu Ejersaa jedhamu irraa Yerusaalemitti deebiʼan; gaarri kunis Yerusaalem irraa gara deemsa guyyaa Sanbata tokkoo fagaata.
13 When they arrived, they went to the upper room where they were staying: Peter and John, James and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James son of Alphaeus, Simon the Zealot, and Judas son of James.
Isaanis yommuu Yerusaalem gaʼanitti kutaa darbii kan keessa jiraachaa turan sanatti ol baʼan; isaanis: Phexrosii fi Yohannis, Yaaqoobii fi Indiriiyaas, Fiiliphoosii fi Toomaas, Bartaloomewoosii fi Maatewos, Yaaqoob ilma Alfewoos, Simoon isa Hinaafticha jedhamuu fi Yihuudaa ilma Yaaqoob turan.
14 With one accord they all continued in prayer, along with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with His brothers.
Hundi isaaniis dubartootaa fi Maariyaam haadha Yesuus wajjin, obboloota isaa wajjinis utuu gargar hin kutin yaada tokkoon kadhannaatti jabaachaa turan.
15 In those days Peter stood up among the brothers (a gathering of about a hundred and twenty) and said,
Gidduma sana Phexros kaʼee amantoota gara 120 taʼan gidduu dhaabate.
16 “Brothers, the Scripture had to be fulfilled which the Holy Spirit foretold through the mouth of David concerning Judas, who became a guide for those who arrested Jesus.
Akkanas jedhe; “Yaa obboloota, dubbiin kitaabaa kan Hafuurri Qulqulluun yeroo dheeraan dura waaʼee Yihuudaa isa warra Yesuusin qaban fide sanaa afaan Daawitiitiin dubbate sun raawwatamuu qaba.
17 He was one of our number and shared in this ministry.”
Innis miseensa keenyaa fi nama akka tajaajila kana keessatti qooda qabaatuuf filatame ture.”
18 (Now with the reward for his wickedness Judas bought a field; there he fell headlong and burst open in the middle, and all his intestines spilled out.
Yihuudaan horii hammina hojjetee argate sanaan lafa bitate; innis mataan kufee qixxee lamaanitti tarsaʼe; marʼumaan isaa hundinuus keessaa jige.
19 This became known to all who lived in Jerusalem, so they called that field in their own language Akeldama, that is, Field of Blood.)
Namoonni Yerusaalem keessa jiraatan hundinuus waan kana dhagaʼan; lafa sanas afaan isaaniitiin Akeldaamaa jedhanii waaman. Akeldaamaa jechuun “Lafa Dhiigaa” jechuu dha.
20 “For it is written in the book of Psalms: ‘May his place be deserted; let there be no one to dwell in it,’ and, ‘May another take his position.’
Phexrosis akkana jedhe; “Kitaaba faarfannaa keessatti akkana jedhamee barreeffameeraatii: “‘Qeʼeen isaa haa onu; namni keessa jiraatu tokko iyyuus hin hafin’ akkasumas “‘Aangoo isaa namni biraa haa fudhatu.’
21 Therefore it is necessary to choose one of the men who have accompanied us the whole time the Lord Jesus went in and out among us,
Kanaaf warra yeroo gooftaa Yesuus nu gidduu baʼee galaa ture hundumaa nu wajjin turan keessaa nama tokko filachuun barbaachisaa dha;
22 beginning from John’s baptism until the day Jesus was taken up from us. For one of these must become a witness with us of His resurrection.”
namni filatamu kun nama cuuphaa Yohannisii jalqabee hamma gaafa Yesuus nu biraa samiitti ol fudhatameetti nu wajjin ture taʼuu qaba. Namoota kanneen keessaa tokko nu wajjin dhuga baatuu duʼaa kaʼuu Yesuus taʼuu qabaatii.”
23 So they proposed two men: Joseph called Barsabbas (also known as Justus) and Matthias.
Kanaafis namoota lama dhiʼeessan; isaanis Yoosef isa Barsaabaas jedhamu kan Yoosxoos jedhamee beekamu tokkoo fi Maatiyaas.
24 And they prayed, “Lord, You know everyone’s heart. Show us which of these two You have chosen
Akkanas jedhanii Waaqa kadhatan; “Yaa Gooftaa garaa nama hundumaa beektu, ati namoota kanneen lamaan keessaa isa kam akka filatte nutti argisiisi;
25 to take up this ministry and apostleship, which Judas abandoned to go to his rightful place.”
kunis akka inni tajaajilaa fi ergamtummaa Yihuudaan dhiisee gara iddoo ofii isaatti gara gale sana fudhatuuf.”
26 Then they cast lots, and the lot fell to Matthias; so he was added to the eleven apostles.
Isaanis ixaa buusan; ixaan sunis Maatiyaasiif baʼe. Kanaafuu inni ergamoota kudha tokkotti dabalame.
