Acts 9
1 And Saul, as yet breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest,
He wode Saa7oli Godaa kaalleyssata wodhanaw manddidi kahine halaqaakko bis.
2 And asked of him letters to Damascus, to the synagogues: that if he found any men and women of this way, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem.
Godaa ogiya kaalliya addetanne maccata demmiko, qachchishe Yerusalaame ehanaw, Damasqqon de7iya Ayhude Woosa Keethatas dabddaabbiya baw xaafanaw iya woossis.
3 And as he went on his journey, it came to pass that he drew nigh to Damascus; and suddenly a light from heaven shined round about him.
I bidi, Damasqqo katamaa gakkanaw matishin, qopponna saloppe wolqqaama poo7oy iya yuushuwan poo7is.
4 And falling on the ground, he heard a voice saying to him: Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?
I sa7an kunddidashin, “Saa7olaa, Saa7olaa, ays tana goodday?” giya qaala si7is.
5 Who said: Who art thou, Lord? And he: I am Jesus whom thou persecutest. It is hard for thee to kick against the goad.
Saa7oli, “Godaw, neeni oonee?” yaagidi oychchis. “Taani, neeni gooddiya Yesuusa” yaagis.
6 And he trembling and astonished, said: Lord, what wilt thou have me to do?
Shin Saa7oli kokkorishenne malaalettishe, “Godaw, taani ay oothana mela koyay?” yaagis. Goday iyaakko, “Denddada katamaa gela; neeni oothanaw bessiyabay yan new odettana” yaagis.
7 And the Lord said to him: Arise, and go into the city, and there it shall be told thee what thou must do. Now the men who went in company with him, stood amazed, hearing indeed a voice, but seeing no man.
Saa7olara ogiya biya asati aykkoka odettonna eqqi attidosona. Qaalaa si7oosona, shin oonakka be7ibookkona.
8 And Saul arose from the ground; and when his eyes were opened, he saw nothing. But they leading him by the hands, brought him to Damascus.
Saa7oli kunddida bessaafe denddidi xeelliya wode iya ayfey demmonna ixxis. Hessa gisho, entti iya kushiya oykkidi kaalethidi Damasqqo gelssidosona.
9 And he was there three days, without sight, and he did neither eat nor drink.
Heedzu gallas gakkanaw I xeellanaw dandda7ibeenna; aykkoka mibeenna; uyibeenna.
10 Now there was a certain disciple at Damascus, named Ananias. And the Lord said to him in a vision: Ananias. And he said: Behold I am here, Lord.
Damasqqon issi Hananiya giya Yesuusa tamaarey de7ees. Goday qonccethan, “Hananiya” yaagidi xeegis. Hananey zaaridi, “Ta Godaw, hayssan de7ays” yaagis.
11 And the Lord said to him: Arise, and go into the street that is called Stait, and seek in the house of Judas, one named Saul of Tarsus. For behold he prayeth.
Goday iyaakko, “Denddada Suure geetettiya ogiya bada, Yihuda son Saa7ola giya terseseppe yida uraa koya; Saa7oli woossees.
12 (And he saw a man named Ananias coming in, and putting his hands upon him, that he might receive his sight.)
Qassi Hananiya giya addey gelidi, Saa7oli nam77antho xeellana mela ba kushiya iya bolla wothishin qonccethan be7is” yaagis.
13 But Ananias answered: Lord, I have heard by many of this man, how much evil he hath done to thy saints in Jerusalem.
Hananey zaaridi, “Godaw, Yerusalaamen ne geeshsha asaa bolla he uray ay mela iitabaa oothidaakko taani daro asaappe si7as.
14 And here he hath authority from the chief priests to bind all that invoke thy name.
Qassi Damasqqon ne sunthaa xeegeyssata ubbaa qachchanaw, kahine halaqati iyaw maata immidosona” yaagis.
15 And the Lord said to him: Go thy way; for this man is to me a vessel of election, to carry my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel.
Shin Goday iyaakko, “Saa7oli Ayhude gidonna asaa sinthan, kawota sinthaninne Isra7eele asaa sinthan, ta sunthaa erisanawunne taw oothanaw doorettida miishe gidiya gisho neeni iyaakko ba.
16 For I will shew him how great things he must suffer for my name’s sake.
Ays giikko, ta sunthaa gisho, I ay mela waaye ekkanaw bessiyako taani iya bessana” yaagis.
17 And Ananias went his way, and entered into the house. And laying his hands upon him, he said: Brother Saul, the Lord Jesus hath sent me, he that appeared to thee in the way as thou camest; that thou mayest receive thy sight, and be filled with the Holy Ghost.
Hananey bidi, soo gelidi, ba kushiya Saa7ola bolla wothidi, “Ta ishaa Saa7ola, neeni yaa ogiyan new benttida Yesuusi, neeni xeellana melanne Geeshsha Ayyaanan kumana mela Goday tana kiittis” yaagis.
18 And immediately there fell from his eyes as it were scales, and he received his sight; and rising up, he was baptized.
Ellesidi, Saa7ola ayfiyaappe issi poqo melabay wodhdhin, Saa7oli nam77antho xeellis. Qassi denddidi xammaqettis.
19 And when he had taken meat, he was strengthened. And he was with the disciples that were at Damascus, for some days.
Kathi midi xaalidi, Damasqqon de7iya ammaneyssatara guutha gallas gam77is.
20 And immediately he preached Jesus in the synagogues, that he is the Son of God.
Ellesidi Saa7oli, “Yesuusi Xoossaa Na7a” yaagidi Damasqqon de7iya Ayhude Woosa Keethatan qaala tamaarssis.
21 And all that heard him, were astonished, and said: Is not this he who persecuted in Jerusalem those that called upon this name: and came hither for that intent, that he might carry them bound to the chief priests?
Hessa si7ida ubbay malaalettidi, “Hayssi Yerusalaamen Yesuusa sunthaa xeegeyssata qachcheyssa gidenneyye? Qassi ha yiday entta qachchidi, kahine halaqata sinthe efanaassa gidennee?” yaagidosona.
22 But Saul increased much more in strength, and confounded the Jews who dwelt at Damascus, affirming that this is the Christ.
Shin Saa7oli qaala odon minni minni bis. Yesuusi, I Kiristtoosa gideyssa qonccisidi odida gisho Damasqqon de7iya Ayhudeti iyaw zaariyaba dhayidosona.
23 And when many days were passed, the Jews consulted together to kill him.
Daro gallasappe guye Ayhudeti shiiqidi, Saa7ola wodhanaw zorettidosona.
24 But their laying in wait was made known to Saul. And they watched the gates also day and night, that they might kill him.
Shin Ayhudeti bana wodhanaw qoppidayssa Saa7oli si7is. Entti iya wodhanaw qammanne gallas katamaa penggiyan naagoosona.
25 But the disciples taking him in the night, conveyed him away by the wall, letting him down in a basket.
Shin iya tamaareti iya qamma efidi, gimbbe dirssaa maskkotiyara daachchora wodhisidosona.
26 And when he was come into Jerusalem, he essayed to join himself to the disciples; and they all were afraid of him, not believing that he was a disciple.
Saa7oli Yerusalaame gakkida wode ammaneyssatara gayttanaw koyis. Shin I Kiristtoosa ammanidayssi enttaw tuma daanonna ixxin iyaw yayyidosona.
27 But Barnabas took him, and brought him to the apostles, and told them how he had seen the Lord, and that he had spoken to him; and how in Damascus he had dealt confidently in the name of Jesus.
Shin Barnnabaasi Saa7ola hawaaretakko efis. Ogen Goday waanidi qonccidaakkonne haasayisidaakko, qassi Saa7oli Damasqqon Yesuusa sunthan yayyonna waattidi qaala odidaakko enttaw geeshshidi odis.
28 And he was with them coming in and going out in Jerusalem, and dealing confidently in the name of the Lord.
Saa7oli Yerusalaamen yuuyidi Godaa sunthan yayyonna qaala odishe, hawaaretara issife de7is.
29 He spoke also to the Gentiles, and disputed with the Greeks; but they sought to kill him.
Qassi Saa7oli Girike qaala haasayiya Ayhudetara odettishe palamees. Shin entti iya wodhanaw koyidosona.
30 Which when the brethren had known, they brought him down to Caesarea, and sent him away to Tarsus.
Ammaniya asati hessa si7idi, Saa7ola Qisaariya efidi Terseese yeddidosona.
31 Now the church had peace throughout all Judea, and Galilee, and Samaria; and was edified, walking in the fear of the Lord, and was filled with the consolation of the Holy Ghost.
Yihudan, Galiilaninne Samaare ubban de7iya woosa keethati sarotethaan de7idosona. Qassi minnidosona; Godaas yayyishe Geeshsha Ayyaana minthethuwan dari dari bidosona.
32 And it came to pass that Peter, as he passed through, visiting all, came to the saints who dwelt at Lydda.
Phexiroosi biitta ubbaa yuuyishe Liidan de7iya ammaniyaa asatakko gakkis.
33 And he found there a certain man named Eneas, who had kept his bed for eight years, who was ill of the palsy.
Yan hosppun laythi kumethi gunddidi arssan zin77idi de7iya Eeniya giya addiya demmis.
34 And Peter said to him: Eneas, the Lord Jesus Christ healeth thee: arise, and make thy bed. And immediately he arose.
Phexiroosi, “Eeniya, Yesuus Kiristtoosi nena pathana; denddada ne hiixa dentha” yaagis. Ikka ellesidi denddi eqqis.
35 And all that dwelt at Lydda and Saron, saw him: who were converted to the Lord.
Liidaninne Saaronan de7iya asay ubbay Eeniya be7idi, Godaakko simmidosona.
36 And in Joppe there was a certain disciple named Tabitha, which by interpretation is called Dorcas. This woman was full of good works and almsdeeds which she did.
Yoophe kataman issi Xaabito giya ammaniyaara de7awusu. (Xaabito guussay gen77e guussu) Iya ba de7ida wode ubban lo77obaa oothashenne manqota maaddashe de7asu.
37 And it came to pass in those days that she was sick, and died. Whom when they had washed, they laid her in an upper chamber.
He wode iya harggada hayqqin, asay I ahaa meeccidi, pooqiya bolla kessidi zin77isidosona.
38 And forasmuch as Lydda was nigh to Joppe, the disciples hearing that Peter was there, sent unto him two men, desiring him that he would not be slack to come unto them.
Liidi Yoophes mata. Ammaneyssati Phexiroosi Liidan de7eyssa si7idi, “Hayyana nuukko ellessada ya” yaagiya kiitaa nam77u asata bolla iyaakko kiittidosona.
39 And Peter rising up, went with them. And when he was come, they brought him into the upper chamber. And all the widows stood about him weeping, and shewing him the coats and garments which Dorcas made them.
Hessa gisho, Phexiroosi denddidi, enttara bis. Yaa gakkin, pooqiya bolla de7iya kifiliya iya gelssidosona. Am77eti Phexiroosa yuushuwan eqqidi yeekkishe Dorqqa enttara paxa de7ashe oothida qamisetanne afilata ubbaa Phexiroosa bessidosona.
40 And they all being put forth, Peter kneeling down prayed, and turning to the body, he said: Tabitha, arise. And she opened her eyes; and seeing Peter, she sat up.
Phexiroosi entta ubbaa kare kessidi, gulbbatidi Xoossaa woossis. Qassi ahaako simmidi, “Xaabite, dendda” yaagis. Xaabita ba ayfiyaa dooyada Phexiroosa be7ada, dendda uttasu.
41 And giving her his hand, he lifted her up. And when he had called the saints and the widows, he presented her alive.
Phexiroosi iyo ba kushiyan maaddidi denthi essis. Hessafe guye, ammaneyssatanne am77eta xeegidi, denddidaaro entta sinthe shiishis.
42 And it was made known throughout all Joppe; and many believed in the Lord.
Ha oday Yoophe katama ubbaa gakkis. Daro asay Godaa ammanidosona.
43 And it came to pass, that he abode many days in Joppe, with one Simon a tanner.
Phexiroosi Yoophen Simoona giya galbba haasheyssa son daro gallas gam77is.
