Acts 28
1 And having been saved, then they knew that the island is called Melita,
Nuuni gaxa saro keyida wode gakkida haathan teqettida biittay Maltta geetetteyssa erida.
2 and the foreigners were shewing us no ordinary kindness, for having kindled a fire, they received us all, because of the pressing rain, and because of the cold;
Maltta asay nuus daro keeha keehidosona. Iri bukkiya gishonne meeggiya gisho tama eethidi nuna ubbaa mokkidosona.
3 but Paul having gathered together a quantity of sticks, and having laid [them] upon the fire, a viper — out of the heat having come — did fasten on his hand.
Phawuloosi daro afira shiishidi taman wothishin, shooshi seelaa gisho keyidi iya kushiya bolla xaaxettidi iya dukkis.
4 And when the foreigners saw the beast hanging from his hand, they said unto one another, 'Certainly this man is a murderer, whom, having been saved out of the sea, the justice did not suffer to live;'
Maltta asay shooshi Phawuloosa kushen xaaxettidayssa be7ida wode issoy issuwako, “Tuma ha uray shemppo wodhida asi; hari attoshin abbaafe I attinkka xoossa pirddafe attidi paxa daanaw dandda7ibeenna” yaagidosona.
5 he then, indeed, having shaken off the beast into the fire, suffered no evil,
Shin Phawuloosi ba kushiyappe shooshaa wuxarkkidi, taman yeggis; iya aykkoka qohibeenna.
6 and they were expecting him to be about to be inflamed, or to fall down suddenly dead, and they, expecting [it] a long time, and seeing nothing uncommon happening to him, changing [their] minds, said he was a god.
Entti, “Iya bollay kixxees, woykko akeekonna kunddidi hayqqees” gidi iya naagoosona. Shin daro wode naagidi iya bollan aybikka dummattidabay dhayin, “Hessi xoosse” yaagidi bantta qofaa laammidosona.
7 And in the neighbourhood of that place were lands of the principal man of the island, by name Publius, who, having received us, three days did courteously lodge [us];
He heeran haathan teqettida biittaa halaqay Pupliyoosa geyssas gadey de7ees; heedzu gallas gakkanaw i nuna siiqon mokkis.
8 and it came to pass, the father of Publius with feverish heats and dysentery pressed, was laid, unto whom Paul having entered, and having prayed, having laid [his] hands on him, healed him;
Pupliyoosa aaway qoxo, mishanne ulo uttison harggettidi zin77idi de7ees. Phawuloosi iya soo gelidi iyaw Xoossaa woossis; ba kushiya iya bolla wothidi pathis.
9 this, therefore, being done, the others also in the island having infirmities were coming and were healed;
Hessafe guye, Maltan de7iya harggiya hara asatikka yidi paxidosona.
10 who also with many honours did honour us, and we setting sail — they were lading [us] with the things that were necessary.
Entti nuna daro bonchcho bonchchidosona; nuuni markkaben baanaw denddida wode oges koshshiyabaa nuus immidosona.
11 And after three months, we set sail in a ship (that had wintered in the isle) of Alexandria, with the sign Dioscuri,
Heedzu ageenappe guye, Maltan balggo aathida Iskkinddiriya markkaben baanaw denddida. He markkabiya bolla Diyosqoroosa giya mentte eeqata misiley de7ees.
12 and having landed at Syracuse, we remained three days,
Sirakuuse giya katamaa gelidi yan heedzu gallas uttida.
13 thence having gone round, we came to Rhegium, and after one day, a south wind having sprung up, the second [day] we came to Puteoli;
Yaappe denddidi Regiyume giya katamaa gakkida. Issi gallasappe guye, dugeha bagga carkkoy carkkin, wonttetha gallas Putiyoole giya katamaa gakkida.
14 where, having found brethren, we were called upon to remain with them seven days, and thus to Rome we came;
Yan nuuni issi issi ammaniyaa asata demmin, banttara saamintta gam77ana mela nuna woossidosona. Hessafe guye, Roome bida.
15 and thence, the brethren having heard the things concerning us, came forth to meet us, unto Appii Forum, and Three Taverns — whom Paul having seen, having given thanks to God, took courage.
Roomen de7iya ammaniyaa asati nubaa si7idi, Afiyoosa Giyaan, Heedzu Aqiyaso giya bessaa gakkanaw nuna mokkanaw yidosona. Phawuloosi entta be7ida wode Xoossaa galatidi minettis.
16 And when we came to Rome, the centurion delivered up the prisoners to the captain of the barrack, but Paul was suffered to remain by himself, with the soldier guarding him.
Nuuni Roome gelida wode Phawuloosi bana naagiya wotaaddariyara barkka de7o geetettis.
17 And it came to pass after three days, Paul called together those who are the principal men of the Jews, and they having come together, he said unto them: 'Men, brethren, I — having done nothing contrary to the people, or to the customs of the fathers — a prisoner from Jerusalem, was delivered up to the hands of the Romans;
Heedzu gallasappe guye, Phawuloosi Ayhudeta halaqata baakko xeegisis. Entti shiiqida wode enttako, “Ta ishato, taani nu asaa woykko nu aawata wogaa bolla aybi qohokka oothabiikke, shin tana Yerusalaamen qachchidi Roome asaas aathidi immidosona.
18 who, having examined me, were wishing to release [me], because of their being no cause of death in me,
Entti ta mootuwa be7idi hayqos gathiyabaa ta bolla aybibaakka demmiboonna gisho tana billanaaw qoppidosona.
19 and the Jews having spoken against [it], I was constrained to appeal unto Caesar — not as having anything to accuse my nation of;
Shin Ayhudeti hessa ixxida wode, ‘Tabaa Qeesarey pirddo’ yaagasippe attin taani ta deriya mootiyabay de7in gidenna.
20 for this cause, therefore, I called for you to see and to speak with [you], for because of the hope of Israel with this chain I am bound.'
Taani hinttena xeegisiday hinttena be7anawunne hinttew hayssa odanaassa. Taani ha santhalaatan qashettiday Isra7eele asay naagiya ufayssaa gishossa” yaagis.
21 And they said unto him, 'We did neither receive letters concerning thee from Judea, nor did any one who came of the brethren declare or speak any evil concerning thee,
Ayhude halaqati Phawuloosakko, “Nuus Yihudappe nebaa xaafettida dabddaabbey gakkibeenna. Yaappe yida asatappe issoykka nebaa iita odiday baawa.
22 and we think it good from thee to hear what thou dost think, for, indeed, concerning this sect it is known to us that everywhere it is spoken against;'
Shin ha ne kaalliya ammanuwa dumma dumma bessan asay ixxeyssa nuuni eriya gisho ne qofaa si7anaw koyoos” yaagidosona.
23 and having appointed him a day, they came, more of them unto him, to the lodging, to whom he was expounding, testifying fully the reign of God, persuading them also of the things concerning Jesus, both from the law of Moses, and the prophets, from morning till evening,
Entti bantta yaana gallas Phawuloosas qaxaridi, he gallas daridi i de7iyasuwa yidosona. I wonttafe omarssi gakkanaw Xoossaa kawotethaabaa enttaw markkattis. Qassi entti Yesuusabaa ammanana mela Muse higgiyafenne nabeta maxaafappe qonccisidi entta tamaarssis.
24 and, some, indeed, were believing the things spoken, and some were not believing.
Issoti issoti Phawuloosi gidayssa ammanidosona, shin harati ammanibookkona.
25 And not being agreed with one another, they were going away, Paul having spoken one word — 'Well did the Holy Spirit speak through Isaiah the prophet unto our fathers,
Entti bantta giddon oda ma77onna ixxida wode Phawuloosi issibaa gidaappe guye bidosona. I hayssada yaagis: “Geeshsha Ayyaanay nu aawatas nabiya Isayaasa doonan odidayssi tuma.
26 saying, Go on unto this people and say, With hearing ye shall hear, and ye shall not understand, and seeing ye shall see, and ye shall not perceive,
‘Neeni he asaakko bada, hintte sissaa si7eeta, shin hinttew gelenna; hintte be7o be7eeta, shin demmeketa.
27 for made gross was the heart of this people, and with the ears they heard heavily, and their eyes they did close, lest they may see with the eyes, and with the heart may understand, and be turned back, and I may heal them.
Ays giikko, ha deriya wozanay muumis; entta haythay tullis; entta ayfeykka goozettis. Hessi baynneeko, entti bantta ayfiyaan be7idi, bantta haythan si7idi, bantta wozanan akeekidi, entti taakko simmana; takka entta pathanashin’ yaaga” yaagis.
28 'Be it known, therefore, to you, that to the nations was sent the salvation of God, these also will hear it;'
“Hiza, hayssi Xoossaa atotethaa kiitay Ayhude gidonnayssatas gideyssa ereeta. Enttika si7ana” yaagis.
29 and he having said these things, the Jews went away, having much disputation among themselves;
Phawuloosi hessa gidaappe guye, Ayhudeti bantta giddon daro palamishe keyidi bidosona.
30 and Paul remained an entire two years in his own hired [house], and was receiving all those coming in unto him,
Phawuloosi kera keethan nam77u laythi kumethi de7is; yan de7ishe baakko yaa ubbaa mokkees.
31 preaching the reign of God, and teaching the things concerning the Lord Jesus Christ with all boldness — unforbidden.
Yashshi baynnanne oonikka diggonnashin Xoossaa kawotethaabaa sabbakis; Godaa Yesuus Kiristtoosabaa qonccisidi tamaarssees.
