Hawaareta Oosuwa 17
1 Phawuloosaranne Sillaasera Amfiphoolisaranne Apholoniyara aadhdhidi Teselonqe bidosona. Yan Ayhude Woosa Keethi de7ees.
Now when they had passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where there was a Jewish synagogue.
2 Phawuloosi kaseyssada yaa gelis. Hessan heedzu saamintta Xoossaa qaalappe asaas odis.
Paul, as was his custom, went in to them, and for three Sabbath days reasoned with them from the Scriptures,
3 Kiristtoosi waaye ekkanawunne hayqoppe denddanaw besseyssa enttaw qonccisidi odishe, “Yesuusi ha taani hinttew odeyssi Kiristtoosa” yaagis.
explaining and demonstrating that the Messiah had to suffer and rise again from the dead, and saying, "This Yeshua, whom I proclaim to you, is the Messiah."
4 Enttafe issoti issoti oday tuma gideyssa ma77idi Phawuloosaranne Sillaasera issifidosona. Hessadakka, Xoossaa goynniya daro Girike asaynne daro bonchchettida maccasatikka enttara issifidosona.
Some of them were persuaded, and joined Paul and Silas, as did a large number of the devout Greeks, and not a few of the prominent women.
5 Shin Ayhudeti qanaattidi issi issi oosoy baynna iita asata ogeppe shiishidosona. Kataman buqethi kessidosona; Phawuloosanne Sillaase asaas aathi immanaw koyidi Yaasona keethaa teqqidosona.
But the Jews, being moved with jealousy, took along some wicked men from the marketplace, and gathering a crowd, set the city in an uproar. Assaulting the house of Jason, they sought to bring them out to the people.
6 Phawuloosinne Sillaasi enttaw benttonna ixxin, Yaasonanne issi issi ammaneyssata katamaa halaqatakko goochchi efidi, “Hayssati biitta ubbaa buqeyssati ha77i nuukko yidosona.
When they did not find them, they dragged Jason and certain brothers before the rulers of the city, crying, "These who have turned the world upside down have come here also,
7 Yaasoni entta ba son wothis. Hayssati, ‘Yesuusa giya hara kawoy de7ees’ gidi Qeesara kiitaa menthosona” yaagidi dhoqqu gida qaalan odidosona.
whom Jason has received. These all act contrary to the decrees of Caesar, saying that there is another king, Yeshua."
8 Shiiqida asaynne katamaa halaqati hessa si7idi hananabaa dhayidosona.
The crowd and the rulers of the city were troubled when they heard these things.
9 Halaqati Yaasonanne harata waasen birshshidosona.
When they had taken security from Jason and the rest, they let them go.
10 Ammaneysati Phawuloosanne Sillaase qammara Beeriya yeddidosona. Beeriya gakkidi, Ayhude Woosa Keethi gelidosona.
The brothers immediately sent Paul and Silas away by night to Beroea. When they arrived, they went into the Jewish synagogue.
11 Beeriya asati Teselonqe asatappe aadhdhida suureta. Entti qaala kumetha wozanaappe ekkidosona; Phawuloosi gidayssi tuma gideyssa shaakki eranaw gallas gallas Geeshsha Gaxaafata xanna7oosona.
Now these were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of the mind, examining the Scriptures daily to see whether these things were so.
12 Hessa gisho, enttafe daroti, Giriketappeka bonchchettida daro maccasatinne daro addeti ammanidosona.
Many of them therefore believed; also of the prominent Greek women, and not a few men.
13 Shin Teselonqen de7iya Ayhudeti Phawuloosi Xoossaa qaala Beeriyankka odidayssa si7ida wode Beeriya yidi asaa buqidosona.
But when the Jews of Thessalonica had knowledge that the word of God was proclaimed by Paul at Beroea also, they came there likewise, inciting and disturbing the crowds.
14 Hessafe guye, ammaneyssati ellesidi Phawuloosa abbaa mati yeddidosona. Shin Sillaaseynne Ximotiyoosi Beeriyan attidosona.
Then the brothers immediately sent out Paul to go as far as the sea, and Silas and Timothy still stayed there.
15 Phawuloosa moyzida asati Ateena gathidosona. He asati Sillaaseynne Ximotiyoosi banttaw dandda7ettida mela ellesidi baakko yaana mela Phawuloosi kiittida kiitaa ekkidi Beeriya simmidosona.
But those who escorted Paul brought him as far as Athens. Receiving a commandment to Silas and Timothy that they should come to him very quickly, they departed.
16 Phawuloosi Ateenan Sillaasenne Ximotiyoosa naagishe, kataman eeqi kumidayssa be7idi yilotis.
Now while Paul waited for them at Athens, his spirit was provoked within him as he saw the city full of idols.
17 Hessa gisho, Ayhude Woosa Keethan Ayhudetaranne Xoossaa goynniya Ayhude gidonna asatara qassi baara gayttiya asatara ubba gallas palamees.
So he reasoned in the synagogue with the Jews and the devout persons, and in the marketplace every day with those who met him.
18 Eppiqoroosanne Istoyke geetettiya cugetappe issi issi eranchchoti Phawuloosara palamidosona. Enttafe issoti issoti, “Ha yooyamay ay odanaw koyii?” yaagidosona. Harati Phawuloosi Yesuusabaanne hayqoppe I denddidayssa banttaw odida gisho, “Ooratha xoossatabaa odiya daanees” yaagidosona.
Some of the Epicurean and Stoic philosophers also were conversing with him. Some said, "What does this babbler want to say?" Others said, "He seems to be advocating foreign deities," because he preached Yeshua and the resurrection.
19 Phawuloosa oykkidi Aryoospaagosa giya shiiqo bessaa efidi, “Ha neeni tamaarssiya oorathabay aybeekko nuna erisikkii?
They took hold of him, and brought him to the Areopagus, saying, "May we know what this new teaching is, which is spoken by you?
20 Ays giikko, neeni nuus oorathabaa odaasa; hiza hessi aybeekko nuuni eranaw koyoos” yaagidosona.
For you bring certain strange things to our ears. We want to know therefore what these things mean."
21 Ateena asay ubbaynne hessan de7iya imathati oorathabaa odettonnanne si7onna pee7okkona.
Now all the Athenians and the strangers living there spent their time in nothing else, but either to tell or to hear some new thing.
22 Phawuloosi Aryoospaagosa sinthan eqqidi, “Ateena asato, xoossatas ubbaban hintte daro yayyeyssa taani be7ays.
Paul stood in the middle of the Areopagus, and said, "You men of Athens, I perceive that you are very religious in all things.
23 Taani hintte katamaara yuuyashe hintte goynniya bessata be7iya wode, ‘Erettonna Xoossaas’ geetetti xaafettida yarshsho bessaa demmas. Ha hintte eronnashin goynneyssa taani hinttew odays.
For as I passed along, and observed the objects of your worship, I found also an altar with this inscription: 'TO AN UNKNOWN GOD.' What therefore you worship in ignorance, this I announce to you.
24 Sa7aanne sa7an de7iya ubbabaa medhdhida Xoossay, saluwanne sa7aa Goday, asi keexida keethan deenna.
The God who made the world and all things in it, he, being Lord of heaven and earth, does not dwell in temples made with hands,
25 I de7o, shempponne ubbabaa asa ubbaas immiya gisho paci de7iya asada asa maade koyenna.
neither is he served by human hands, as though he needed anything, seeing he himself gives to all life and breath, and all things.
26 Xoossay asa zerethi ubbaa issi addiyafe medhdhidi biitta ubban wothis. Yaatidi entti de7ana wodiyasinne bessaas zawa immis.
He made from one blood every nation of mankind to dwell on all the surface of the earth, having determined appointed seasons, and the boundaries of their dwellings,
27 I hessa oothiday asi iya koyana melanne pilggidi demmana melassa. Hanikkoka I nuuppe geemmibeenna.
that they should seek God, if perhaps they might reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us.
28 Hinttefe issi issi yexxeyssati, ‘Nuuni iya nayta’ gidayssada, ‘Nuuni iyan paxa de7oos, qaaxoos.’
'For in him we live, and move, and have our being.' As some of your own poets have said, 'For we are also his offspring.'
29 Hiza, nuuni Xoossaa nayta gidiya gisho, ‘Xoossay asa hiillatethaninne qofan worqqafe woykko birappe woykko shuchchafe oosettidabaa daanees’ yaagidi qoppanaw bessenna.
Being then the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Divine Nature is like gold, or silver, or stone, engraved by human art and design.
30 Hessa gisho, Xoossay kase wode asay eronna oothidayssa aggidi aadhdhis, shin ha77i ubbason de7iya asi ubbay nagaraappe simmana mela kiittees.
The times of ignorance therefore God overlooked. But now he commands that all people everywhere should repent,
31 Ays giikko, Xoossay ba doorida addiyan sa7an de7iya asa ubbaa bolla xillo pirdda pirddanaw qamma giigisi wothis. Iya hayqoppe denthidi hessa asa ubbaas tumayis” yaagis.
because he has appointed a day in which he will judge the world in righteousness by the man whom he has ordained; of which he has given assurance to everyone by raising him from the dead."
32 Enttafe issi issi asati hayqoppe denddobaa Phawuloosappe si7idi, iya bolla qelqisidosona. Shin harati, “Nuuni hessa neeppe gujjidi si7anaw koyoos” yaagidosona.
Now when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked; but others said, "We want to hear you again concerning this."
33 Hessa gisho, Phawuloosi entta giddofe keyis.
Thus Paul went out from among them.
34 Shin issi issi addeti Phawuloosara gaakettidi ammanidosona. Entta giddofe Aryoospaagosan shiiquwan de7iya Diyonasyoos giya addey, Damarsso giya issi maccasiyanne harati de7oosona.
But some people joined with him, and believed, among whom also was Dionysius the Areopagite, and a woman named Damaris, and others with them.
