Acts 7
1 Then the High Priest asked him, "Are these statements true?"
Markaasaa wadaadkii sare wuxuu yidhi, Waxanu ma saasaa?
2 The reply of Stephen was, "Sirs--brethren and fathers--listen to me. God Most Glorious appeared to our forefather Abraham when he was living in Mesopotamia, before he settled in Haran,
Markaasuu ku yidhi, Walaalo iyo aabbayaalow, dhegaysta, Ilaaha Ammaantu wuxuu u muuqday awoweheen Ibraahim markuu Mesobotamiya joogay intuusan Haaraan degin,
3 and said to him, "'Leave your country and your relatives, and go into whatever land I point out to you.'
oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Ka soo kac waddankaaga iyo dadkaaga, oo kaalay dalka aan ku tusi doono.
4 "Thereupon he left Chaldaea and settled in Haran till after the death of his father, when God caused him to remove into this country where you now live.
Markaasuu ka soo kacay dalkii reer Kaldayiin oo wuxuu soo degay Haaraan; oo markuu aabbihiis dhintay ayaa Ilaah meeshaas isaga ka soo wareejiyey oo keenay dalkan aad haatan deggan tihiin,
5 But he gave him no inheritance in it, no, not a single square yard of ground. And yet He promised to bestow the land as a permanent possession on him and his posterity after him--and promised this at a time when Abraham was childless.
oo dhaxalna kama uu siin, xataa meel uu cagtiisa dhigo; laakiin wuxuu isaga ka ballanqaaday inuu dalka mulki u siiyo isaga iyo farcankiisa ka dambeeyaba, in kastoo uusan dhal lahayn.
6 And God declared that Abraham's posterity should for four hundred years make their home in a country not their own, and be reduced to slavery and be oppressed.
Ilaah sidan buu u hadlay, in farcankiisu degi doono dal shisheeye, oo iyaga la addoonsan doono, oo afar boqol oo sannadood la dhibi doono.
7 "'And the nation, whichever it is, that enslaves them, I will judge,' said God; 'and afterwards they shall come out, and they shall worship Me in this place.'
Ilaah wuxuu yidhi, Quruunta iyagu ay u addoonsamaan ayaan xukumi doonaa; markaas dabadeed ayay ka soo bixi doonaan oo meeshan iigu adeegi doonaan.
8 "Then He gave him the Covenant of circumcision, and under this Covenant he became the father of Isaac--whom he circumcised on the eighth day. Isaac became the father of Jacob, and Jacob became the father of the twelve Patriarchs.
Oo wuxuu isaga siiyey axdiga gudniinta; haddaba Ibraahim wuxuu dhalay Isxaaq, oo maalintii siddeedaad ayuu guday isaga; Isxaaqna wuxuu dhalay Yacquub; Yacquubna wuxuu dhalay laba-iyo-tobankii aynu ka soo farcannay.
9 "The Patriarchs were jealous of Joseph and sold him into slavery in Egypt. But God was with him
Kuwii aan ka soo farcannayna intay Yuusuf ka masayreen ayay waxay ka iibiyeen Masar;
10 and delivered him from all his afflictions, and gave him favour and wisdom when he stood before Pharaoh, king of Egypt, who appointed him governor over Egypt and all the royal household.
laakiin Ilaah baa isaga la jiray oo dhibaatadiisii oo dhan ka samatabbixiyey, oo axsaan iyo xigmad ka siiyey Fircoon, oo ahaa boqorkii Masar; markaasuu isaguna wuxuu isagii taliye uga dhigay Masar iyo reerkiisii oo dhan.
11 But there came a famine throughout the whole of Egypt and Canaan--and great distress--so that our forefathers could find no food.
Haddaba waxaa Masar iyo Kancaan oo dhan ka wada dhacay abaar iyo dhibaato weyn; awowayaasheenna dhuuni bay ka waayeen.
12 When, however, Jacob heard that there was wheat to be had, he sent our forefathers into Egypt; that was the first time.
Laakiin markii Yacquub maqlay in Masar sarreen jiro, ayuu markii ugu horraysay awowayaasheen diray.
13 On their second visit Joseph made himself known to his brothers, and Pharaoh was informed of Joseph's parentage.
Oo markii labaad waxaa walaalihiis la aqoonsiiyey Yuusuf; markaasaa Fircoon wuxuu gartay Yuusuf qoladiisii.
14 Then Joseph sent and invited his father Jacob and all his family, numbering seventy-five persons, to come to him,
Markaasaa Yuusuf cid u diray oo u yeedhay aabbihiis Yacquub iyo dadkiisii oo dhan oo ahaa shan iyo toddobaatan qof.
15 and Jacob went down into Egypt. There he died, and so did our forefathers,
Markaasaa Yacquub Masar tegey. Isaga qudhiisii waa dhintay iyo awowayaasheenba;
16 and they were taken to Shechem and were laid in the tomb which Abraham had bought from the sons of Hamor at Shechem for a sum of money paid in silver.
waxaana la geeyey Shekem oo la dhigay xabaashii Ibraahim qiimaha lacagta ah kaga iibsaday wiilashii Xamoor oo Shekem joogay.
17 "But as the time drew near for the fulfilment of the promise which God had made to Abraham, the people became many times more numerous in Egypt,
Laakiin markuu soo dhowaaday wakhtigii ballankii Ilaah kula ballamay Ibraahim, ayay dadkii ku soo kordheen oo ku bateen Masar,
18 until there arose a foreign king over Egypt who knew nothing of Joseph.
tan iyo intii boqor kale oo aan Yuusuf oqooni Masar ka kacay.
19 He adopted a crafty policy towards our race, and oppressed our forefathers, making them cast out their infants so that they might not be permitted to live.
Isaguna waa khiyaaneeyey dadkeenna, awowayaasheenna wuu xumeeyey, oo wuxuuna ku qasbay inay ilmahoodii yaryaraa iska tuuraan si ayan u sii noolaan.
20 At this time Moses was born--a wonderfully beautiful child; and for three months he was cared for in his father's house.
Muusena wakhtigaasuu dhashay, oo wuxuu ahaa wax qurux badan; oo saddex bilood ayaa gurigii aabbihiis lagu hayay;
21 At length he was cast out, but Pharaoh's daughter adopted him, and brought him up as her own son.
markii la tuurayna, Fircoon gabadhiisii ayaa qaadatay oo sidii wiilkeedii oo kale u korsatay.
22 So Moses was educated in all the learning of the Egyptians, and possessed great influence through his eloquence and his achievements.
Muusena waxaa la baray xigmaddii Masriyiinta oo dhan; hadalladiisa iyo falimihiisana xoog buu ku lahaa.
23 "And when he was just forty years old, it occurred to him to visit his brethren the descendants of Israel.
Laakiin markuu gaadhay afartan sannadood oo buuxa ayaa waxaa qalbigiisa gashay inuu walaalihiis oo reer binu Israa'iil ahaa soo booqdo.
24 Seeing one of them wrongfully treated he took his part, and secured justice for the ill-treated man by striking down the Egyptian.
Oo markuu arkay midkood oo lagu gardarroonayo, ayuu ka celiyey, oo intuu kii la dulmayay uu aarguday, ayuu Masrigii dilay;
25 He supposed his brethren to be aware that by him God was sending them deliverance; this, however, they did not understand.
oo wuxuu u malaynayay in walaalihiis garteen sida Ilaah gacantiisa iyaga ugu samatabbixinayo, laakiin ma ay garan.
26 The next day, also, he came and found two of them fighting, and he endeavoured to make peace between them. "'Sirs,' he said, 'you are brothers. Why are you wronging one another?'
Oo maalintii ku xigtay ayuu iyagoo diriraya u yimi, oo wuxuu damcay inuu heshiisiiyo, markaasuu yidhi, Niman yahow, walaalaad tihiine; maxaad isu dulmaysaan?
27 "But the man who was doing the wrong resented his interference, and asked, "'Who appointed you magistrate and judge over us?
Laakiin kii deriskiisii dulmayay, ayaa isaga iska riixay oo ku yidhi, Yaa nooga kaa dhigay taliye iyo xaakin?
28 Do you mean to kill me as you killed the Egyptian yesterday?'
Ma waxaad doonaysaa inaad ii dishid sidaad Masrigii shaalay u dishay?
29 "Alarmed at this question, Moses fled from the country and went to live in the land of Midian. There he became the father of two sons.
Markaasaa Muuse hadalkaas aawadiis cararay, oo sidii ajanabi buu dalka Midyaan u degganaa, meeshaasna laba wiil buu ku dhalay.
30 "But at the end of forty years there appeared to him in the Desert of Mount Sinai an angel in the middle of a flame of fire in a bush.
Markii afartan sannadood dhammaatay dabadeed ayaa waxaa isagii Buur Siinay cidladeedii uga muuqatay malaa'ig ku dhex jirta geed dab ka ololayo.
31 When Moses saw this he wondered at the sight; but on his going up to look further, the voice of the Lord was heard, saying,
Oo markii Muuse arkay ayuu wuxuu arkay la yaabay, oo intuu u soo dhowaanayay inuu arko, ayaa waxaa u yimid codkii Rabbiga oo leh,
32 "'I am the God of your forefathers, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob.' "Quaking with fear Moses did not dare gaze.
Anigu waxaan ahay Ilaaha awowayaashaa, Ilaaha Ibraahim iyo Ilaaha Isxaaq iyo Ilaaha Yacquub. Markaasaa Muuse gariiray oo ku dhici waayay inuu eego.
33 "'Take off your shoes,' said the Lord, 'for the spot on which you are standing is holy ground.
Markaasaa Rabbigu isaga ku yidhi, Kabaha cagahaaga ka furfur; maxaa yeelay, meesha aad ku taagan tahay waa dhul quduus ah.
34 I have seen, yes, I have seen the oppression of My people who are in Egypt and have heard their groans, and I have come down to deliver them. And now I will send you to Egypt.'
Dadkayga Masar jooga rafaadkooda waan arkay, taahoodana waan maqlay, oo waxaan u imid inaan samatabbixiyo; haddaba kaalay, Masar baan kuu diri doonaaye.
35 "The Moses whom they rejected, asking him, 'Who appointed you magistrate and judge?' --that same Moses we find God sending as a magistrate and a deliverer by the help of the angel who appeared to him in the bush.
Muusahakan ay diideen oo ku yidhaahdeen, Yaa kaa dhigay taliye iyo xaakin? Isagaa Ilaah ugu soo diray gacanta malaa'igtii geedka uga soo muuqatay inuu ahaado taliye iyo samatabbixiye.
36 This was he who brought them out, after performing marvels and signs in Egypt and at the Red Sea, and in the Desert for forty years.
Kanaa iyaga Masar ka soo saaray, oo yaabab iyo calaamooyin ku sameeyey Masar, iyo Badda Cas, iyo cidlada afartan sannadood.
37 This is the Moses who said to the descendants of Israel, "'God will raise up a Prophet for you, from among your brethren, just as He raised me up.'
Kanu waa Muusihii ku yidhi reer binu Israa'iil, Ilaah wuxuu walaalihiin idiinka dhex kicin doonaa nebi sidayda oo kale.
38 'This is he who was among the Congregation in the Desert, together with the angel who spoke to him on Mount Sinai and with our forefathers, who received ever-living utterances to hand on to us.
Kanu waa kii ku dhex jiray kiniisaddii cidlada oo la jiray malaa'igtii isaga kala hadashay Buur Siinay iyo awowayaasheen, kii la siiyey hadallada nool inuu ina siiyo.
39 "Our forefathers, however, would not submit to him, but spurned his authority and in their hearts turned back to Egypt.
Isaga awowayaasheen ma ay doonaynin inay addeecaan, laakiin intay iska riixeen ayay qalbigooda geliyeen inay Masar dib ugu jeestaan,
40 They said to Aaron, "'Make gods for us, to march in front of us; for as for this Moses who brought us out of the land of Egypt, we do not know what has become of him.'
oo waxay Haaruun ku yidhaahdeen, Inoo samee ilaahyo ina hor socda; maxaa yeelay, Muusihii inaga soo kaxeeyey dhulka Masar garan mayno waxa ku dhacay.
41 "Moreover they made a calf at that time, and offered a sacrifice to the idol and kept rejoicing in the gods which their own hands had made.
Markaasay waxay wakhtigaas sameeyeen weyl, oo sanamkii waxay u keeneen allabari, oo waxay ku farxeen shuqulkii gacmahoodu sameeyeen.
42 So God turned from them and gave them up to the worship of the Host of Heaven, as it is written in the Book of the Prophets, "'Were they victims and sacrifices which you offered Me, forty years in the Desert, O House of Israel?
Laakiin Ilaah baa ka jeestay, oo wuxuu faraha uga qaaday inay u adeegaan guutada samada; sida ay ugu qoran tahay kitaabka nebiyada, Bal reer binu Israa'iilow, afartankii sannadood oo aad cidlada joogteen, Ma anigaad i siiseen xoolo qalan iyo allabaryo?
43 Yes, you lifted up Moloch's tent and the Star of the God Rephan--the images which you made in order to worship them; and I will remove you beyond Babylon.'
Weliba waxaad qaadateen taambuuggii Molokh Iyo xiddigtii ilaaha Remfan, Oo ah waxyaalihii aad u samaysateen inaad caabuddaan. Haddaba waxaan idiin kaxayn doonaa Baabuloon shishadeeda.
44 "Our forefathers had the Tent of the Testimony in the Desert, built as He who spoke to Moses had instructed him to make it in imitation of the model which he had seen.
Awowayaasheen waxay cidlada ku hayeen taambuuggii maragga, sidii kii Muuse la hadlay ugu amray isaga inuu u sameeyo sidii qaabkii uu arkay.
45 That Tent was bequeathed to the next generation of our forefathers. Under Joshua they brought it with them when they were taking possession of the land of the Gentile nations, whom God drove out before them. So it continued till David's time.
Kaas ayaa awowayaasheen markoodii la soo qaadeen Yashuuca markay galeen oo qaateen dhulkii quruumihii Ilaah awowayaasheen hortooda ku eryay, ilaa waagii Daa'uud.
46 David obtained favour with God, and asked leave to provide a dwelling-place for the God of Jacob.
Daa'uudna Ilaah hortiis ayuu wanaag ka helay, oo wuxuu weyddiistay inuu Ilaahii Yacquub u helo meel uu dego.
47 But it was Solomon who built a house for Him.
Laakiinse Sulaymaan baa guri u dhisay.
48 Yet the Most High does not dwell in buildings erected by men's hands. But, as the Prophet declares,
Hase ahaatee Kan ugu sarreeya ma dego guryo gacmo lagu sameeyo; sida nebigu leeyahay,
49 "'The sky is My throne, and earth is the footstool for My feet. What kind of house will you build for Me, says the Lord, or what resting place shall I have?
Samadu waa carshigayga, Dhulkuna waa meeshaan cagaha saarto, Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Guri caynmaad ii dhisi doontaan? Ama maxay tahay meeshaan ku nastaa?
50 Did not My hand form this universe.'
Miyaan gacantaydu samayn waxyaalahan oo dhan?
51 "O stiff-necked men, uncircumcised in heart and ears, you also are continually at strife with the Holy Spirit--just as your forefathers were.
Idinkan madaxa adag oo aan qalbiga iyo dhegaha laga gudinow, weligiinba Ruuxa Quduuska ah waad hor joogsataan. Sidii awowayaashiin yeeli jireen oo kale ayaad idinna yeeshaan.
52 Which of the Prophets did not your forefathers persecute? Yes, they killed those who announced beforehand the advent of the righteous One, whose betrayers and murderers you have now become--
Bal nebiyada kee baan awowayaashiin silcin? Xataa iyagu waxay dileen kuwii hore u sheegay imaatinka Kan xaqa ah; kan idinku aad haatan gacangeliseen oo disheen.
53 you who received the Law given through angels, and yet have not obeyed it."
Waxaad sharciga u hesheen sidii wax malaa'igahu hagaajiyeen, laakiinse ma aydnaan xajin.
54 As they listened to these words, they became infuriated and gnashed their teeth at him.
Haddaba markay waxyaalahaas maqleen way ka xanaaqeen oo u ilka jirriqsadeen isaga.
55 But, full of the Holy Spirit and looking up to Heaven, Stephen saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at God's right hand.
Laakiin isagoo Ruuxa Quduuska ahu ka buuxo ayuu samada aad u fiiriyey, oo wuxuu arkay ammaanta Ilaah iyo Ciise oo midigta Ilaah taagan,
56 "I can see Heaven wide open," he said, "and the Son of Man standing at God's right hand."
oo wuxuu yidhi, Bal eega, waxaan arkayaa samooyinkii oo la furay iyo Wiilkii Aadanaha oo midigta Ilaah taagan.
57 Upon this, with a loud outcry they stopped their ears, rushed upon Stephen in a body,
Laakiin markaasay cod weyn ku qayliyeen oo dhegaha furaysteen, oo iyagoo isku wada qalbi ah ku yaaceen isagii.
58 dragged him out of the city, and stoned him, the witnesses throwing off their outer garments and giving them into the care of a young man called Saul.
Markaasay intay magaalada ka soo saareen dhagxiyeen; kuwii maragga ahaana dharkoodii waxay ag dhigteen nin dhallinyaro ah oo la odhan jiray Sawlos.
59 So they stoned Stephen, while he prayed, "Lord Jesus, receive my spirit."
Markaasay dhagxiyeen Istefanos oo Rabbiga baryaya oo ku leh, Rabbi Ciisow, ruuxayga qaado.
60 Then, rising on his knees, he cried aloud, "Lord, do not reckon this sin against them." And with these words he fell asleep.
Markaasuu jilba joogsaday oo cod weyn ku qayliyey oo ku yidhi, Rabbiyow, dembigan dushooda ha ka dhigin. Oo markuu sidaas yidhi, ayuu dhintay.
