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.
The former treatise, O Theophilus, I made concerning all that Jesus undertook both to do and to teach;
till the day in which He was taken up, after He had by the holy Spirit given instructions to the apostles whom He had chosen:
3 I ba waayiyappe guye hayqoppe denddidayssa sidhey baynna qonccisidi enttaw bana bessis. Oytamu gallas enttaw qonccidi Xoossaa kawotethaabaa entta tamaarssis.
to whom also He presented Himself alive, after He had suffered, by many certain proofs; being seen among them for forty days, and speaking of the things relating to 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 meeting them together He commanded them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for the promise of the Father, which, said He, ye have heard from me;
5 Ays giikko, Yohaannisi haathan xammaqis, shin guutha wodeppe guye Geeshsha Ayyaanan hintte xammaqettana” yaagis.
for John indeed baptized with water, but ye shall within a few days be baptized with the holy Spirit.
6 Hawaareti Yesuusara gayttida wode iyaakko, “Godaw, Isra7eeletas ne kawotethaa zaarana wodey hayssee?” yaagidi oychchidosona.
Being therefore come together they asked Him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?
7 Yesuusi enttako, “Ta Aaway ba maatan oothiya wodiyanne laythaa hintte eranaw dandda7ekketa.
And He said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or seasons, which the Father hath reserved in his own power.
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 shall receive power from the holy Spirit coming upon you: and ye shall be my witnesses both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea, and Samaria, and to the uttermost part 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 looking upon Him, He was lifted up, and a cloud received Him out of their sight.
10 Yesuusi biya wode entti salo tishshi oothidi xeellishin, bootha ma7o ma77ida nam77u asati akeekonna entta matan eqqidi,
And while they were looking stedfastly toward heaven, as He went up, behold two men in white stood by them;
11 “Galiila asato, salo xeellishe, hintte ays eqqideti? Ha hintte be7ishin salo bida Yesuusi hessadakka simmidi yaana” yaagidosona.
who said, Ye men of Galilee, why do ye stand gazing up to heaven? This Jesus who is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in the manner ye have seen Him going into heaven.
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 from Jerusalem a sabbath-day's 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 were come in to the city, they went up into an upper room, where Peter, and James, and John, and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew, and Matthew, James the son of Alpheus, and Simon the zealot, and Jude the brother of James, usually abode.
14 Hayssati ubbay maccasatara, Yesuusa aaye Mayraamiranne Yesuusa ishatara ubbay issi wozanan gididi minthidi woossosona.
These all persevered with one accord in prayer and supplication with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and his brethren.
15 He wode, Phexiroosi xeetanne laatama gidiya ammaniyaa asay shiiqida bessan denddi eqqidi, hayssada yaagis:
And in these days Peter stood up in the midst of the disciples, (now the number of the persons that were together was about an hundred and twenty, )
16 “Asaw, Yesuusa oykkidayssata kaalethida Yihudabaa Geeshsha Ayyaanay kase Dawite doonan odida Xoossaa qaalay polettanaw bessees.
and said, Men and brethren, it was necessary that this scripture should be fulfilled, which the holy Ghost spake by the mouth of David, concerning Judas, who was guide to them that apprehended Jesus:
17 Yihudi nuura issife ha oosuwa oothanaw doorettida asi.”
for he was numbered with us, and had obtained a part of this ministry.
18 Shin Yihudi ba iita oosuwan demmida miishen gade shammis. I gufannidi kunddin, iya uloy daakettis; iya maraacey ubbay kare keyis.
(Now this man purchased a field with the reward of iniquity; and falling down on his face, burst asunder 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 was known to all the inhabitants of Jerusalem, so that the field is called in their own dialect, Aceldama, 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 be desolate, and let none dwell in it; and again, Let another take his office.)
21 “Hessa gisho, Godaa Yesuusi nu giddon simerettida wode ubban nuura de7eyssatappe,
Wherefore it is necessary that one of these men, who have been conversant with us all the time that the Lord Jesus came in and 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.
from the baptism of John, till the day that He was taken up from us, should be joined with us as a witness of his resurrection.
23 Hessa gisho, asay dooruwas Yosxoosa giya Barssaabasa geetettiya Yoosefanne Maatiyasa nam77a shiishidosona.
And they proposed two, Joseph called Barsabas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias.
24 Hessafe guye, Xoossaa woossishe, “Asa ubbaa wozana eriya Godaw, ha nam77atappe ne oona dooridaakko nuna bessa.
And they prayed and said, Thou, Lord, who knowest the hearts of all, shew us, which of these two Thou hast chosen,
25 Yihudi ba bessaa bidi, aggida oosuwanne hawaaretetha oosuwa ekkana mela hayssatappe nuus qonccisa” yaagidosona.
to take part of this ministry and apostleship, from which Judas is fallen by his transgression, that he might go to his own place.
26 Entta bolla saama yeggidosona. Saamay Maatiyasa bolla wodhdhin Maatiyasi tammanne issi hawaareta bolla guzhettis.
And they gave out their lots, and the lot fell upon Matthias, and he was numbered with the apostles.
