Acts 28
1 Our lives having been thus preserved, we discovered that the island was called Malta.
Nus nagumaan qarqara galaanaatti baanee akka biyyi bishaaniin marfamte sun Malaaxiyaa jedhamtu beekne.
2 The strange-speaking natives showed us remarkable kindness, for they lighted a fire and made us all welcome because of the pelting rain and the cold.
Namoonni biyya bishaaniin marfamte sana irra jiraatanis gara laafina dinqisiisaa nu argisiisan. Isaanis sababii roobnii fi dhaamochi tureef ibidda bobeessanii hunda keenya simatan.
3 Now, when Paul had gathered a bundle of sticks and had thrown them on the fire, a viper, driven by the heat, came out and fastened itself on his hand.
Utuu Phaawulos hanxaxii qoraanii walitti qabee ibiddatti naqaa jiruu buutiin sababii hoʼaatiin gad baate tokko harka isaatti maxxantee gad dhiisuu didde.
4 When the natives saw the creature hanging to his hand, they said to one another, "Beyond doubt this man is a murderer, for, though saved from the sea, unerring Justice does not permit him to live."
Warri biyya bishaaniin marfamte sana irra jiraatan sunis buutii harka isaatti rarraatu arganii, “Namichi kun nama nama ajjeese taʼuu hin oolu; inni yoo balaa galaanaa jalaa baʼe illee Murtiin Qajeelaan akka inni jiraatu hin eeyyamneef” waliin jedhan.
5 He, however, shook the reptile off into the fire and was unhurt.
Phaawulos buutii sana ibidda keessa of irraa buuse; miidhaa tokko malees hafe.
6 They expected him soon to swell with inflammation or suddenly fall down dead; but, after waiting a long time and seeing no harm come to him, they changed their minds and said that he was a god.
Namoonni sunis, “Inni ni dhiitaʼa yookaan akkuma tasaa kufee duʼa” jedhanii eegan; garuu yommuu yeroo dheeraa eeganii akka inni waa tokko illee hin taʼin arganitti yaada geeddaratanii, “Inni waaqa” jedhan.
7 Now in the same part of the island there were estates belonging to the Governor, whose name was Publius. He welcomed us to his house, and for three days generously made us his guests.
Bulchaan biyya bishaaniin marfamtee kan Phubiliyoos jedhamu tokkos naannoo sanaa lafa qotiisaa qaba ture; innis mana isaatti nu simatee guyyaa sadii jaalalaan nu keessumsiise.
8 It happened, however, that his father was lying ill of dysentery aggravated by attacks of fever; so Paul went to see him, and, after praying, laid his hands on him and cured him.
Abbaan Phubiliyoos dhukkuba dhagna nama gubuu fi garaa nama kaasuun qabamee ciisaa ture; Phaawulosis isa gaafachuuf ol seenee erga kadhatee booddee harka irra kaaʼee isa fayyise.
9 After this, all the other sick people in the island came and were cured.
Yommuu wanni kun taʼetti dhukkubsattoonni biyya bishaaniin marfamte sana irra jiraatan biraa hundi dhufanii fayyan.
10 They also loaded us with honours, and when at last we sailed they put supplies on board for us.
Isaanis karaa baayʼeedhaan ulfina nuu kennan; yommuu nu dooniin deemuuf kaanettis waan nu barbaachisu hunda nuuf kennan.
11 Three months passed before we set sail in an Alexandrian vessel, called the 'Twin Brothers,' which had wintered at the island.
Nus jiʼa sadii booddee doonii Iskindiriyaa kan biyya bishaaniin marfamte sana irratti yeroo gannaa dabarse tokkoon kaanee deemsa jalqabne; dooniin sunis asxaa waaqota lakkuu Kastoorii fi Paaluksi adda isaa irraa qaba ture.
12 At Syracuse we put in and stayed for two days.
Seraakuus geenyees bultii sadii achi turre.
13 From there we came round and reached Rhegium; and a day later, a south wind sprang up which brought us by the evening of the next day to Puteoli.
Achiis kaanee Reegiyuumitti galle; guyyaa tokko booddees waan bubbeen kibbaa bubbiseef guyyaa itti aanutti Putiyooluus geenye.
14 Here we found brethren, who invited us to remain with them for a week; and so we reached Rome.
Achitti obboloota tokko tokko arganne; isaanis akka nu bultii torba isaan bira turru nu kadhatan. Nus akkasiin Roomaatti galle.
15 Meanwhile the brethren there, hearing of our movements, came as far as the Market of Appius and the Three Huts to meet us; and when Paul saw them he thanked God and felt encouraged.
Obboloonni achi turanis yommuu dhufaatii keenya dhagaʼanitti hamma iddoo gabaa Aphiyuusiittii fi iddoo “Lafa Bultoo Sadii” jedhamuutti nu simachuu dhufan; Phaawulosis isaan argee Waaqa galateeffate; ofii isaatiis ni jajjabaate.
16 Upon our arrival in Rome, Paul received permission to live by himself, guarded by a soldier.
Yommuu nu Roomaa geenyetti Phaawulos akka loltuu isa eegu tokko wajjin kophaa isaa jiraatu eeyyamameef.
17 After one complete day he invited the leading men among the Jews to meet him; and, when they were come together, he said to them, "As for me, brethren, although I had done nothing prejudicial to our people or contrary to the customs of our forefathers, I was handed over as a prisoner from Jerusalem into the power of the Romans.
Phaawulosis guyyaa sadii booddee dura buʼoota Yihuudootaa walitti waame; yommuu isaan walitti qabamanittis akkana jedheen; “Yaa obboloota ko, ani utuu waan saba keenyaan yookaan duudhaa abbootii keenyaatiin mormu tokko illee hin hojjetin Yerusaalem keessatti qabamee dabarfamee harka warra Roomaatti kennameera.
18 They, after they had sharply questioned me, were willing to set me at liberty, because they found no offence in me for which I deserve to die.
Isaanis erga na qoranii booddee sababii ani yakka duʼa namatti mursiisu tokko illee hin qabaatiniif gad na dhiisuu barbaadan.
19 But, at last, the opposition of the Jews compelled me to appeal to Caesar; not however that I had any charge to bring against my nation.
Ani garuu yoo waan ittiin saba koo himadhu tokko iyyuu hin qabaatin illee yommuu Yihuudoonni mormanitti akka Qeesaaritti ol iyyadhu nan dirqame.
20 For these reasons, then, I have invited you here, that I might see you and speak to you; for it is for the sake of Him who is the hope of Israel that this chain hangs upon me."
Wanni ani isin arguu fi isin wajjin haasaʼuu kadhadheefis kanuma. Ani sababuma abdii Israaʼeliif jedhee foncaa kanaan hidhameera.”
21 "For our part," they replied, "we have not received any letters from Judaea about you, nor have any of our countrymen come here and reported or stated anything to your disadvantage.
Isaanis akkana jedhanii deebisan; “Nu xalayaa waaʼee kee dubbatu tokko illee biyya Yihuudaatii hin arganne; obboloota achii dhufan keessaas namni tokko iyyuu waaʼee kee waan hamaa hin dubbanne; nuttis hin himne.
22 But we should be glad to hear from you what it is that you believe; for as for this sect all we know is that it is everywhere spoken against."
Nu garuu yaadni kee maal akka taʼe sirraa dhagaʼuu barbaanna; nu akka namoonni iddoo hunda jiran garee kanaan morman ni beeknaatii.”
23 So they arranged a day with him and came to him in considerable numbers at the house of the friends who were entertaining him. And then, with solemn earnestness, he explained to them the subject of the Kingdom of God, endeavouring from morning till evening to convince them about Jesus, both from the Law of Moses and from the Prophets.
Isaanis guyyaa itti Phaawulos wajjin wal argan qabatanii, akka malee baayʼatanii lafa inni jiraachaa ture dhaqan; innis ganamaa jalqabee hamma galgalaatti waaʼee mootummaa Waaqaa isaanii ibsaa, lallabaas ture; waaʼee Yesuusiis Seera Museetii fi Kitaabota Raajotaa keessaa eeree isaan amansiisuu yaalaa ture.
24 Some were convinced; others refused to believe.
Isaan keessaa warri tokko tokko waan inni jedhe ni fudhatan; warri kaan immoo amanuu didan.
25 Unable to agree among themselves, they at last left him, but not before Paul had spoken a parting word to them, saying, "Right well did the Holy Spirit say to your forefathers through the Prophet Isaiah:
Isaan gidduutti waldhabiisni uumamnaan kaʼanii deemuu jalqaban; kunis erga Phaawulos akkana jedhee dubbii dhumaa dubbatee booddee; “Hafuurri Qulqulluun yeroo karaa Isaayyaas raajichaatiin abbootii keessanitti dubbate sana dhugaa isaa dubbate; innis akkana jedhe:
26 "'Go to this people and tell them, you will hear and hear, and by no means understand; and will look and look, and by no means see.
“‘Gara saba kanaa dhaqiitii akkana jedhi; “Dhagaʼuu inuma dhageessu; garuu hin hubattan; ilaaluus inuma ilaaltu; garuu hin qalbeeffattan.”
27 For this people's mind has grown callous, their hearing has become dull, and their eyes they have closed; to prevent their ever seeing with their eyes, or hearing with their ears, or understanding with their minds, and turning back, so that I might cure them.'
Qalbiin saba kanaa doomeeraatii; gurri isaanii sirriitti hin dhagaʼu; ija isaaniis dunuunfataniiru; utuu akkas taʼuu baatee silaa ija isaaniitiin arganii, gurra isaaniitiin dhagaʼanii, qalbii isaaniitiinis hubatanii, ni deebiʼu turan; anis isaan nan fayyisa ture.’
28 "Be fully assured, therefore, that this salvation--God's salvation--has now been sent to the Gentiles, and that they, at any rate, will give heed."
“Kanaafuu ani akka fayyisuun Waaqaa gara Namoota Ormaatti ergame akka isin beektan nan barbaada! Isaanis ni dhagaʼu.” [
Yihuudoonnis erga inni waan kana dubbatee booddee jabeessanii waliin mormaa achii deeman.]
30 After this Paul lived for fully two years in a hired house of his own, receiving all who came to see him.
Phaawulosis waggaa lama guutuu mana ofii isaatii kireeffate keessa jiraachaa, warra isa dubbisuu dhufan hundas simachaa ture.
31 He announced the coming of the Kingdom of God, and taught concerning the Lord Jesus Christ without let or hindrance.
Innis ija jabinaan, gufuu tokko malees mootummaa Waaqaa lallabaa, waaʼee Gooftaa Yesuus Kiristoosis barsiisaa ture.
