Hawaareta Oosuwa 1
1 Tewofiloosa, Yesuusi ba oosuwa oykkida wodeppe salo bida gallasaa gakkanaw, oothidabaanne tamaarssidabaa ubbaa taani ta koyro maxaafan xaafas. Salo baanappe sinthe I ba doorida hawaareta Geeshsha Ayyaanan kiittis.
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 I ba waayiyappe guye hayqoppe denddidayssa sidhey baynna qonccisidi enttaw bana bessis. Oytamu gallas enttaw qonccidi Xoossaa kawotethaabaa entta tamaarssis.
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 Issi wode enttara issife mishe entta hayssada yaagidi kiittis; “Ta hinttew odida, ta Aaway immana gida ufayssaa qaala naagiteppe attin Yerusalaameppe keyoppite.
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 Ays giikko, Yohaannisi haathan xammaqis, shin guutha wodeppe guye Geeshsha Ayyaanan hintte xammaqettana” yaagis.
Because John indeed immersed in water, but ye will be immersed in the Holy Spirit after not many of these days.
6 Hawaareti Yesuusara gayttida wode iyaakko, “Godaw, Isra7eeletas ne kawotethaa zaarana wodey hayssee?” yaagidi oychchidosona.
Indeed therefore having come together, they questioned him, saying, Lord, do thou restore the kingdom to Israel at this time?
7 Yesuusi enttako, “Ta Aaway ba maatan oothiya wodiyanne laythaa hintte eranaw dandda7ekketa.
And he said to them, It is not for you to know times or seasons, which the Father established in his own authority.
8 Shin Geeshsha Ayyaanay hintte bolla wodhdhiya wode, hintte wolqqan kumana. Yaani simmidi, Yerusalaamen, Yihuda biitta ubban, Samaareninne sa7aa gaxa gakkanaw taw markkatta gidana” yaagis.
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 gidayssafe guye entti xeellishin, dhoqqu dhoqqu gidi, saluwa bin shaaraykka iya entta ayfiyaappe geenthis.
And having said these things, as they were watching, he was taken up, and a cloud received him from their eyes.
10 Yesuusi biya wode entti salo tishshi oothidi xeellishin, bootha ma7o ma77ida nam77u asati akeekonna entta matan eqqidi,
And while they were gazing at his going into the sky, behold, two men had also stood by them in white apparel,
11 “Galiila asato, salo xeellishe, hintte ays eqqideti? Ha hintte be7ishin salo bida Yesuusi hessadakka simmidi yaana” yaagidosona.
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, hawaareti Shamaho Deriyappe Yerusalaame simmidosona. Shamaho Derey Yerusalaames matan de7ees.
Then they returned to Jerusalem from the mountain called Olivet, which is near Jerusalem having a sabbath day journey.
13 Entti Yerusalaame gelidi, bantta de7iya bessaa pooqiya bolla keyidosona. Enttika: Phexiroosa, Yohaannisa, Yayqooba, Inddiriyasa, Filiphphoosa, Toomasa, Bartolomiyoosa, Maatoosa, Ilfiyoosa na7aa Yayqooba, ba biittaas mishettiya Simoonanne Yayqooba na7aa Yihuda.
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 Hayssati ubbay maccasatara, Yesuusa aaye Mayraamiranne Yesuusa ishatara ubbay issi wozanan gididi minthidi woossosona.
All these men were continuing with one accord in prayer and supplication, with women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brothers.
15 He wode, Phexiroosi xeetanne laatama gidiya ammaniyaa asay shiiqida bessan denddi eqqidi, hayssada yaagis:
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 “Asaw, Yesuusa oykkidayssata kaalethida Yihudabaa Geeshsha Ayyaanay kase Dawite doonan odida Xoossaa qaalay polettanaw bessees.
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 Yihudi nuura issife ha oosuwa oothanaw doorettida asi.”
because he was numbered with us, and received a share of this ministry.
18 Shin Yihudi ba iita oosuwan demmida miishen gade shammis. I gufannidi kunddin, iya uloy daakettis; iya maraacey ubbay kare keyis.
(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 Yihuda bolla hanidabaa Yerusalaamen de7iya asa ubbay si7is. Hessa gisho, he gadiya bantta qaalan Akelddaama (Suutha gade) gidi xeegidosona.
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 “Hessika mazmure maxaafan, ‘Iya keethay kallo atto; oonikka iyan de7oppo. Qassi iya shuumatethaa hari ekko’ geetetti xaafettis.
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 gisho, Godaa Yesuusi nu giddon simerettida wode ubban nuura de7eyssatappe,
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 qassi Xammaqiya Yohaannisa wodiyappe doomidi Godaa Yesuusi salo bida gallas gakkanaw nuura de7eyssatappe issi asi iya dendduwas nuura markka gidanaw bessees” yaagis.
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 gisho, asay dooruwas Yosxoosa giya Barssaabasa geetettiya Yoosefanne Maatiyasa nam77a shiishidosona.
And they put forward two, Joseph called Barsabbas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias.
24 Hessafe guye, Xoossaa woossishe, “Asa ubbaa wozana eriya Godaw, ha nam77atappe ne oona dooridaakko nuna bessa.
And having prayed, they said, Thou, Lord, knowing the hearts of all men, show which one of these two thou have chosen
25 Yihudi ba bessaa bidi, aggida oosuwanne hawaaretetha oosuwa ekkana mela hayssatappe nuus qonccisa” yaagidosona.
to take the place in this ministry and apostleship from which Judas transgressed to go to his own place.
26 Entta bolla saama yeggidosona. Saamay Maatiyasa bolla wodhdhin Maatiyasi tammanne issi hawaareta bolla guzhettis.
And they gave their lots, and the lot fell upon Matthias, and he was numbered with the eleven apostles.
