Kitetidayta Ootho 1
1 Tofilosa, Yesussay oothanasine tammarissanas oykidayssa wursia ta nes koyro maxaafan xaafadis.
I indeed made the former treatise, O Theophilus, about all things that Jesus began both to do and to teach,

until a day in which he was taken up, having commanded, through the Holy Spirit, the apostles whom he chose,
3 Izi daro waye be7idappe guye istakko shiqidi hayqope denddanayssa haytannitas daroo markkara qonccisishe oydu tamu gaalas gakkanaas isttas gaalas galas beetishe Xoossa kawootetha gish yootides.
to whom he also presented himself living, after his suffering, by many infallible proofs, being seen by them during forty days, and speaking the things about the kingdom of God.
4 Isttara isife maadan uttidishe istta hizzgi azazides “Yerussalamepe kezoppite, gido attin ta intes yootishin inte siydayssa ta aaway immida uhaaththaayssa naagitte.
And being assembled together, he commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for the promise of the Father, Which, he said, ye heard from me.
5 Yanissay haththan xaamaqqides shin inte qass guuththa wodeppe guye xiillo ayanan xammaqistana.
Because John indeed immersed in water, but ye will be immersed in the Holy Spirit after not many of these days.
6 Isttika issibolla shiqetti uttidishe “Godo! isiraelista kawootethi zaarada hai essane?” gi oychchida.
Indeed therefore having come together, they questioned him, saying, Lord, do thou restore the kingdom to Israel at this time?
7 Izika isttas “aaway ba sheenen woththida wode errooy intes immetibeeyna.
And he said to them, It is not for you to know times or seasons, which the Father established in his own authority.
8 Gido attin xiillo Ayanay inte bolla wodhdhida wode inte wolliiqa ekkana, Yerussalamenika Yudanika Sammariyanika wursoson biita gaxxa gakkanaas inte tas markkata gidana” gides.
But ye will receive the power of the Holy Spirit that comes upon you. And ye will be witnesses to me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and as far as of the extremity of the earth.
9 Hessa gi yootidape guye istti xeellishin pude salo denddides, salo sharayika istta ayfepe iza genththides.
And having said these things, as they were watching, he was taken up, and a cloud received him from their eyes.
10 Izi biishin istti iza tish histi pude salo xeelishin booththa mayo mayida namm7u asati qoponnita istta achchan eqqidi;
And while they were gazing at his going into the sky, behold, two men had also stood by them in white apparel,
11 “inteno Galila asato! inte pude salo xeellishe hayssan aazas eqqidetii? Haysi inte maatappe pude salo dennidishin inte beeyza Yesussay salo keezishin inte beeyda mala hessaththoka izi simmi yaana” gida.
who also said, Men, Galileans, why stand ye gazing into the sky? This Jesus who was taken up from you into the sky will so come, in that same way as ye saw him going into the sky.
12 Hessafe guye Dabirezayite giza zumma bollafe wodhdhid Yerusalame simmida, he zummayka yerussalameppe issi killo mittire mala hakkes.
Then they returned to Jerusalem from the mountain called Olivet, which is near Jerusalem having a sabbath day journey.
13 Gede kaatamayo gellida wode kase ba diza keeththa fooqe bolla keziida, heyttikka Phixxirossa, Yanissa, Yaqoobe, Inddarassa, Philliphossa, Toomassa, Barttelomossa, Matossa, Illifossa na Yaqoobe, ba bagga maddizade geetettiza Simmonane yaqoobe na Yuuda.
And when they came in, they went up into the upper floor where they were lodging, including, Peter and James and John and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon the Zealot, and Judas son of James.
14 Heyti wurikka maccashatappe Yesussa aayoo marammira hessathokka iza ishshatara issi wozinnan issi bolla qanxxontta minni woossida.

And in those days, Peter, having stood up in the midst of the disciples (and there was a multitude of names at the same place, about a hundred twenty), he said,
16 Hizzgides “ta ishshato! Yesussa oykkida asata kaalleth oyththida, yuda gish xiillo ayanay kassetidi dawute dunnan hasa7iida geesha maxaafa qaalay polistanas koshiza gishiko.
Men, brothers, it was necessary for this scripture to be fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit foretold through the mouth of David about Judas, who became a guide to those who arrested Jesus,
17 Izikka nuuppe issade mala taybeettidi hayssa ha oosozan gellanas exxa demmides.
because he was numbered with us, and received a share of this ministry.
18 Shin hayssadey ba iitta ooson demmida miishshan gade shammides. Hennikka ba liiphon gufanni kunnidin iza asatathay giidofe phalliqeti wodhdhides; iza maraccey biita bolla zazetides.
(Indeed therefore this man obtained a field from the reward of his unrighteousness, and having become headlong, he burst open in the middle and all his bowels gushed out.
19 Hesikka yerussalamen diza asas wursios siyetides. Biitaykka istta qaalara “akeelidama” geetetides; Birishechayika suththa biita gusa.
And it became known to all those dwelling at Jerusalem, so as to call that field in their own dialect, Akeldama, that is, The field of blood.)
20 Gujjidikka Phixxirossay “mazzimmure maaxaafan (iza biittay mela atto, iza biittan assi doopo qassekka iza dannatethi hara assi eekko) geeteti xaafetides.
For it is written in the book of Psalms, Let his habitation become desolate, and let no man be dwelling in it, and, Let another take his office.
21 Hessa gish Goda Yesusay nunara diza wode wurson nunara isife dizayta gidofe nu issade dorannas koshshes.
It is necessary therefore, of the men who accompanied us during all the time during which the Lord Jesus went in and went out among us,
22 Hesikka Yanisa xiinqqateppe ha simmin Yesussay nuppe shakeetidi dendi bana gakkanaas nunara dizade gidannas beeses. Gasoykka ha asatappe issadey nunara Yesussa denththas markka gidana koshshes” gides.
having begun from the immersion of John to the day that he was taken up from us, for one of these to become a witness with us of his resurrection.
23 Hessa gish Barissabasa woykko Yosixxossa geetettiza Yosehaaththaonne Matiyassa namm7ata shishshidi;
And they put forward two, Joseph called Barsabbas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias.

And having prayed, they said, Thou, Lord, knowing the hearts of all men, show which one of these two thou have chosen
25 Yuuday yeggi bidason ha ooththa ooththanadene haware gidanade ne doora” gida.
to take the place in this ministry and apostleship from which Judas transgressed to go to his own place.
