Acts 25
1 Now when Festus was come into the province, after three days he ascended from Cæsarea to Jerusalem.
Fisxxossay ba ayssiza dere Qissariya gellidi hedzdzu gallas aqqetidi heppe Yerusalame bides.
2 Then the high priest and the chief of the Jews informed him against Paul, and besought him,
Hen diza qeessata hallaqatine issi issi Ayhudista garssafe gita gita asati Phawulossa bolla ba mooto shishshida; “Phawulossa ha Yerusalame ehidi nus loo7o ooso oththarkki” giidi wossida; istti hessa giday Phawulossa naagidi oge bolla wodhdhanas kooyda gishaskko.
3 And desired favour against him, that he would send for him to Jerusalem, laying wait in the way to kill him.
4 But Festus answered, that Paul should be kept at Cæsarea, and that he himself would depart shortly thither.
Gido attin Fisxxossay “Phawulossay Qissariyan qachcho keeththan naggetes; takka ha7i elle simmada he izakko baana.
5 Let them therefore, said he, which among you are able, go down with me, and accuse this man, if there be any wickedness in him.
Inte garssafe dannateth dizaytti tanara Qissariya beeto; Phawulossay oththida qohoy diza gidikko hen mooteto” gides.
6 And when he had tarried among them more than ten days, he went down unto Cæsarea; and the next day sitting on the judgment seat commanded Paul to be brought.
Fisxxossay osppun woykko tammu gaallassafe daroontta wode isttara gamm7idi guye Qissariya bides; He gakkida mala wonttetha gallas pirda wombbora bolla uttidi Phawulossa izakko shishshana mala azazides.
7 And when he was come, the Jews which came down from Jerusalem stood round about, and laid many and grievous complaints against Paul, which they could not prove.
Phawulossay iza sinthth shiiqin Yerussalamepe yida Ayhudati Phawulossa giddothidi markkay bayndda daroo deexxo mooto iza bolla shishshida.
8 While he answered for himself, Neither against the law of the Jews, neither against the temple, nor yet against Cæsar, have I offended any thing at all.
Phawulossaykka “Tani Ayhuda woga bolla gidin Xoossa keeththa bolla woykko Rome kawoo Qessare bollaka gaaththida qoohoy deena” giidi istta mootoza shaariza mallththe isttas immides.
9 But Festus, willing to do the Jews a pleasure, answered Paul, and said, Wilt thou go up to Jerusalem, and there be judged of these things before me?
Gido attin Fisxxossay Ayhudata uhaaththaayssanas koyidi Phawulossa “Ne Yerusalame baada hayssa yooza hen ta sinththan pirdistana koyazii?” gides.
10 Then said Paul, I stand at Cæsar’s judgment seat, where I ought to be judged: to the Jews have I done no wrong, as thou very well knowest.
Phawulossay qasse hizzgidi izas zaarides “Hekko ta pirdistanas tas bessiza Qessare pirda wombbara sinththan eqqadis; nekka loo7etha erriza mala ta Ayhudata bolla ooththida aykko qoohoy deena.
11 For if I be an offender, or have committed any thing worthy of death, I refuse not to die: but if there be none of these things whereof these accuse me, no man may deliver me unto them. I appeal unto Cæsar.
Ta qoohida gidikko woykko tana hayqqos gaaththiza qooho ta ooththida gidikko ta hayqoppe attana giike; Gido attin istti shishshiza mootoy mela hada gidiko oonikka tana isttas aththi immanas dandda7ena; Takka ta yooy Qeessare sinthth shiiqana mala yigibaayne gadis.”
12 Then Festus, when he had conferred with the council, answered, Hast thou appealed unto Cæsar? unto Cæsar shalt thou go.
Hessa wode Fisxxossay bena zoorizayitara hasa7etidi “ne Qeessareko yigibaayne giza gidiko Qeessareko baanddassa” gides.
13 And after certain days king Agrippa and Bernice came unto Cæsarea to salute Festus.
Guuththa gaallassatape guye kawoo Agirphphayne Barniqey Fisxxossa “Hashshu loo7on yadassa” gi mokkanas gede Qissariya bida.
14 And when they had been there many days, Festus declared Paul’s cause unto the king, saying, There is a certain man left in bonds by Felix:
Istti hen daroo galas uttida gish Fisxxossay Phawulossa yooza kawoo Agirphphas hizzgi yootides “Filkisey qaachcho kethan yegi agiida issadey haan dees.
15 About whom, when I was at Jerusalem, the chief priests and the elders of the Jews informed me, desiring to have judgment against him.
Ta Yerusalamen bida wode qeessista hallaqatinne Ayhudata ciimmati ha addeza yoo taako ehidi ta iza bolla pirdana mala oychchida.
16 To whom I answered, It is not the manner of the Romans to deliver any man to die, before that he which is accused have the accusers face to face, and have licence to answer for himself concerning the crime laid against him.
Ta qasse mootetidadey mootizayta sinththan eqqidi bena mootiza yoozas beessiza malththe immontta dishin mootetidade aththi immooy Rome kawootethas woga gidena” gaada zaaradis.
17 Therefore, when they were come hither, without any delay on the morrow I sat on the judgment seat, and commanded the man to be brought forth.
Hessa gish iza mootizayti shiiqetidi yida mala herakka wonttetha gallas pirda wombboran uttada Phawulossa ta sinthth shishshana mala azazadis.
18 Against whom when the accusers stood up, they brought none accusation of such things as I supposed:
Iza mootizayti iza achchan eqqida wode istti iza bolla shishshida mootoy ta baggara izi iitta oothontta agena gaada qopida mala gidibeyna.
19 But had certain questions against him of their own superstition, and of one Jesus, which was dead, whom Paul affirmed to be alive.
Gido attin istti izara mootetizay ba ammano gishshine Phawulossay issi hayqqidade (Paxa dees) giza Yesussa gish gidides.
20 And because I doubted of such manner of questions, I asked him whether he would go to Jerusalem, and there be judged of these matters.
Takka hessa mala yoo qora xeellanas tana metida gish Phawulossa (Ne Yerusalame baada heyssa yooza hen pirdistana koyyaz?) gadis.
21 But when Paul had appealed to be reserved unto the hearing of Augustus, I commanded him to be kept till I might send him to Cæsar.
Hizzgin izi qasse yoozi Rome kawoo sinththan beyistana mala koyidi (ta yooy Qeessare sinthth shiiqana mala oychchayss) gida gish iza yoo Qeessarekko ta yeeddana gakkanaas izi qachcho keeththan gamm77ana mala azazadis.”
22 Then Agrippa said unto Festus, I would also hear the man myself. To morrow, said he, thou shalt hear him.
Agirphphay Fisxxossa “Takka izi giza siyana koyayss” gides; Fisxxossaykka “Wontto siyanddassa” gides.
23 And on the morrow, when Agrippa was come, and Bernice, with great pomp, and was entered into the place of hearing, with the chief captains, and principal men of the city, at Festus’ commandment Paul was brought forth.
Hessa gish wonttetha gallas Agirphphayne Barniqey kawooti mayiza mayo maydine daro bonchora ola asa halaqatarane he kaataman diza giita asatan azhabbeti yiidi pirda keeth gellida. Hessafe guye Fisxxossay Phawulossa xeeyigisides.
24 And Festus said, King Agrippa, and all men which are here present with us, ye see this man, about whom all the multitude of the Jews have dealt with me, both at Jerusalem, and also here, crying that he ought not to live any longer.
Fisxosay hizzgides “Kawoo Agirphpha! qass nunara diza asato; Ayhuda asati wuri (hayssi addezi hayssafe guye paxxa daana beessena) giidi wassishe Yerussalamenkka haanikka iza bolla pirdistana mala istti tana oychchizay hayssa inte beeyiza addeza gishshaskko.
25 But when I found that he had committed nothing worthy of death, and that he himself hath appealed to Augustus, I have determined to send him.
Ta ta boggara iza hayqqos gaaththiza issi balakka iza bolla demmabeyikke. Izi ta yooy Rome kawoo sinthth shiiqi beeyeto gida gish ta iza he yeeddanas qachchadis.
26 Of whom I have no certain thing to write unto my lord. Wherefore I have brought him forth before you, and specially before thee, O king Agrippa, that, after examination had, I might have somewhat to write.
Gido attin iza gish ta ta godas xaahaaththaana giza errettida yoy deena; Hessa gish iza issi issi pacce oychchota oychchiko tas xaahaaththaanaysi daanakkone gaada inteko; harapekka kawoo Agirphpha neekko shishshadis.
27 For it seemeth to me unreasonable to send a prisoner, and not withal to signify the crimes laid against him.
Gasooykka qachcho assi puude bollattiza dhoqqa dannakko bishin izi mootetiza yo qonccisontta aggoy asa eyya kessizayssi tas bettides.”
