Imisebenzi 17
1 Kwathi sebedabule iAmfipholi leApoloniya, bafika eThesalonika, lapho okwakukhona isinagoge lamaJuda;
Isaanis Amfiipholiisii fi Apholooniyaa keessa darbanii Tasaloniiqee iddoo manni sagadaa Yihuudootaa ture dhufan.
2 njalo njengomkhuba kaPawuli wangena kuwo, wakhulumisana lawo ngokuvela emibhalweni okwamasabatha amathathu,
Phaawulosis akkuma amala isaa mana sagadaa seenee guyyaa Sanbataa sadii dubbii kitaabaa irratti isaan wajjin dudubbachaa,
3 evula etshengisa ukuthi kwakufanele uKristu ahlupheke avuke kwabafileyo, lokuthi: UJesu lo, mina engimtshumayela kini, unguKristu.
akka Kiristoos dhiphachuu fi warra duʼan keessaa kaʼuu qabu addeessaa, mirkaneessaas ture. Innis, “Yesuus ani amma isinitti himu kun Kiristoosii dha” jedhe.
4 Labanye babo bakholwa, bazihlanganisa loPawuli loSilasi, njalo ixuku elikhulu lamaGriki akhonzayo, lakwabesifazana abadumileyo abangabalutshwana.
Yihuudoota keessaa tokko tokko, Giriikota Waaqa sodaatan keessaas namoonni akka malee baayʼatanii fi dubartoonni bebeekamoon hedduun amananii Phaawulosii fi Siilaasitti dabalaman.
5 Kodwa amaJuda angakholwayo aba lomona, athatha amanye amadoda amabi angamavila emdangeni, enza ixuku, adunga umuzi; ahlasela indlu kaJasoni, edinga ukubakhuphela ebantwini;
Yihuudoonni garuu hinaaffaan guutaman; isaanis iddoo gabaatii kashlabboota tokko tokko walitti qabatanii, uummatas kakaasanii magaalaa keessatti goolii uuman; Phaawulosii fi Siilaasinis fuula uummataa duratti dhiʼeessuuf jedhanii isaan barbaacha mana Yaasonitti fiigan.
6 kwathi engabatholi, adonsela uJasoni labazalwane abathile kubaphathi bomuzi, ememeza esithi: Laba abayaluzelisa umhlaba, bona sebefikile lalapha,
Yommuu jara dhabanitti immoo Yaasonii fi obboloota tokko tokko harkisaa fuula qondaaltota magaalaa duratti dhiʼeessanii akkana jedhanii iyyan; “Namoonni addunyaa hunda rakkisaa turan kunneen amma kunoo as dhufaniiru;
7 uJasoni abemukeleyo; lalaba bonke benza okuphambene lemithetho kaKesari, besithi kukhona enye inkosi, enguJesu.
Yaasonis mana isaatti isaan simateera. Hundi isaaniis, ‘Mootiin biraa kan Yesuus jedhamu tokko jira’ jedhanii labsii Qeesaariin mormu.”
8 Asedunga ixuku labaphathi bomuzi besizwa lezizinto.
Uummannii fi qondaaltonni magaalaa sanaas yommuu waan kana dhagaʼanitti ni raafaman.
9 Kwathi sebethethe isibambiso kuJasoni lakwabanye, abakhulula.
Isaanis Yaasonii fi warra kaan irraa qabsiisa fuudhanii gad isaan dhiisan.
10 Njalo abazalwane bahle basusa uPawuli loSilasi babathuma eBeriya ebusuku; okwathi sebefikile khona basuka baya esinagogeni lamaJuda.
Obboloonnis yeruma sana Phaawulosii fi Siilaasin halkaniin Beeriyaatti ergan; isaanis yommuu achi gaʼanitti mana sagadaa Yihuudootaa seenan.
11 Lawo ayelungile kulalawo aweThesalonika, emukela ilizwi ngokuvuma konke, ehlolisisa imibhalo insuku ngensuku, ukuthi zinjalo yini lezizinto.
Yihuudoonni Beeriyaa Yihuudoota Tasaloniiqee irra qalbii qabeeyyii turan; isaanis fedhii guddaan dubbii sana fudhatanii akka wanni Phaawulos jedhe sun dhugaa taʼee fi akka dhugaa hin taʼin ilaaluuf jedhanii guyyuma guyyaan Katabbiiwwan Qulqulluu qorachaa turaniitii.
12 Ngakho amanengi kuwo akholwa, lakwabesifazana abahloniphekayo abangamaGriki lakwabesilisa abangabalutshwana.
Kanaaf Yihuudoota keessaa baayʼeen ni amanan; akkasumas dubartoonni Giriik beekamoon hedduunii fi dhiironni Giriik hedduun ni amanan.
13 Kodwa kwathi amaJuda eThesalonika esekwazi ukuthi ilizwi likaNkulunkulu liyatshunyayelwa nguPawuli leBeriya, eza lakhona enyakazelisa amaxuku.
Yihuudoonni Tasaloniiqee yommuu akka Phaawulos Beeriyaa keessattis dubbii Waaqaa lallabaa ture dhagaʼanitti achis dhaqanii rakkoo uumanii uummata kakaasan.
14 Njalo ngalesosikhathi abazalwane bahle bamthuma uPawuli kungathi uya elwandle; kodwa uSilasi loTimothi basala khona.
Obboloonni immoo yommusuma Phaawulosin gara qarqara galaanaatti ergan; Siilaasii fi Xiimotewos garuu Beeriyaatti hafan.
15 Lalabo ababephelekezela uPawuli, bamfikisa eAtene; sebemukele umlayezelo oya kuSilasi loTimothi, ukuthi beze kuye ngokuphangisa okukhulu, basuka bahamba.
Namoonni Phaawulosin geggeessanis Ateenaan isa gaʼanii akka Siilaasii fi Xiimotewos hamma isaanii dandaʼametti dafanii Phaawulos bira dhaqaniif ajaja fuudhaniifii deebiʼan.
16 Kwathi uPawuli esabalindele eAtene, umoya wakhe wakhathazeka phakathi kwakhe, ebona umuzi ugcwele izithombe.
Phaawulos utuu Ateenaa keessatti isaan eegaa jiruu akka magaalaan sun waaqota tolfamoodhaan guutamte argee akka malee gadde.
17 Ngakho waphikisana lamaJuda esinagogeni labanye abakhonzayo, lasemdangeni insuku zonke lalabo ahlangana labo.
Kanaaf mana sagadaa keessatti Yihuudootaa fi Giriikota Waaqa sodaatan wajjin, iddoo gabaatti immoo guyyuma guyyaan warra achitti argaman wajjin falmaa ture.
18 Labathile kuzo izazi zamaEpikuri lamaStoyiki baphikisana laye. Labanye bathi: Uwumane lolu lufuna ukuthini? Kodwa abanye bathi: Kungathi ungotshumayela onkulunkulu bezizweni; ngoba ngevangeli watshumayela kubo uJesu lokuvuka kwabafileyo.
Gareen falaasamtoota Efiiqoroosiitii fi Istoʼiki tokkos isaan falmaa ture; isaan keessaa tokko tokko, “Namichi legellegaan kun maal jedha?” jedhan. Warri kaan immoo, “Inni waaʼee waaqota ormaa labsa fakkaata” jedhan. Phaawulos waaʼee Yesuusii fi waaʼee duʼaa kaʼuu lallabaa tureetii.
19 Basebemthatha, bamusa eAreyopagu besithi: Singazi yini ukuthi iyini limfundiso entsha oyifundisayo?
Isaanis isa qabanii gara wal gaʼii Ariyoosphaagositti geessan; achittis akkana jedhaniin; “Barsiisni haaraan ati fidde kun maal akka taʼe beekuu dandeenyaa?
20 Ngoba uletha indaba ezimangalisayo ezithile endlebeni zethu; ngakho sifisa ukwazi ukuthi lezizinto ziyini.
Ati waan nu takkumaa hin dhagaʼin nutti himaa jirta; kanaaf nu akka wanni kun maal jechuu taʼe beekuu feena.”
21 Ngoba bonke abeAtene lezethekeli ezihlala khona babechitha isikhathi kungeyisikho ngolutho olunye, ngaphandle kokutshela lokuzwa into entsha.
Warri Ateenaa hundii fi namoonni biyya ormaa kanneen achi jiraatan yeroo isaanii waan haaraa dhagaʼuu fi odeessuu irratti malee waan biraa irratti hin balleessan ture.
22 Kwathi uPawuli esima phakathi kweAreyopagu, wathi: Madoda maAtene, ngiyabona ukuthi ezintweni zonke kungathi lilenkolelo enkulu.
Phaawulosis wal gaʼii Ariyoosphaagos walakkaa dhaabatee akkana jedhe; “Yaa namoota Ateenaa! Ani akka isin karaa hundaanuu warra amantaa taatan nan hubadha.
23 Ngoba ngithe ngidabula ngikhangela izinto zenu elizikhonzayo, ngasengifica ilathi elilotshwe ukuthi: KUNKULUNKULU ONGAZIWAYO. Lowo-ke elimkhonza lingamazi, nguye mina engimtshumayela kini.
Ani yommuun nanaannaʼee waan isin waaqeffattan ilaaletti iddoo aarsaa kan katabbii, Waaqa hin Beekamneef, jedhu of irraa qabu argeeraatii. Egaa amma waan isin utuu hin beekin waaqeffattan kana isinittin hima.
24 UNkulunkulu owenza umhlaba lakho konke okukuwo, yena, oyiNkosi yezulu lomhlaba, kahlali emathempelini enziwe ngezandla,
“Waaqni addunyaa fi waan ishee keessa jiru hunda uume sun Gooftaa samiitii fi lafaa ti; inni mana qulqullummaa kan harka namaatiin hojjetame keessa hin jiraatu.
25 futhi kakhonzwa ngezandla zabantu, njengoswela ulutho, ngoba yena uqobo lwakhe uyabapha bonke impilo lokuphefumula lazo zonke izinto;
Inni mataan isaa sababii jireenya hafuura baafatamuu fi waan biraa hunda nama hundaaf kennuuf akka waan waa dhabeetti harka namaatiin hin tajaajilamu.
26 njalo wazenza zonke izizwe zabantu zivela egazini linye, ukuthi zihlale ebusweni bonke bomhlaba, wazimisela izikhathi eziqunyiweyo ngaphambili lemingcele yokuhlala kwazo;
Inni saboota hunda nama tokko irraa uumee akka isaan lafa hunda irra jiraatan godhe; bara jireenyaa kan isaanii kennamee fi daarii lafa isaan jiraatanii murteesse.
27 ukuze zidinge iNkosi, ukuthi mhlawumbe sibili zimuzwe zimthole, njalo kanti kakhatshana kulowo lalowo wethu.
Waaqni yoo tokkoo tokkoo keenya irraa fagoo jiraachuu baate iyyuu akka namoonni isa barbaadanii, tarii carraaqaniis isa argataniif jedhee waan kana godhe.
28 Ngoba kuye siphila njalo sihamba futhi sikhona; njengoba lembongi ezithile zakini zithe: Ngoba futhi siyinzalo yakhe.
Akkuma beektonni keessan tokko tokko, ‘Nu ilmaan isaa ti’ jedhan sana ‘Nu isa keessa jiraanna; isa keessa sochoona; eenyummaa keenya illee isa keessatti qabaannaatii.’
29 Ngakho lokhu siyinzalo kaNkulunkulu, kakufanele ukuthi sinakane ukuthi ubuNkulunkulu bunjengegolide kumbe isiliva loba ilitshe, okubazwe ngeminwe langokunakana kwabantu.
“Kanaafuu nu waan ilmaan Waaqaa taaneef Waaqni waan akka warqee yookaan meetii yookaan dhagaa jechuunis waan ogummaa fi beekumsa namaatiin hojjetame fakkaata jennee yaaduu hin qabnu.
30 Ngakho izikhathi zokungazi uNkulunkulu kazinanzanga, kodwa khathesi uyalaya bonke abantu endaweni zonke ukuthi baphenduke;
Waaqni bara wallaalummaa durii hin ilaalu ture; amma garuu akka namni iddoo hunda jiru hundi qalbii jijjiirratu ajaja.
31 ngoba umisile usuku, azakwahlulela ngalo umhlaba ngokulunga, ngendoda ayimisileyo, waqinisa kubo bonke, ngokuyivusa kwabafileyo.
Innis guyyaa itti harka namicha filate sanaatiin qajeelummaadhaan addunyaatti muru murteesseeraatii; kanas warra duʼan keessaa isa kaasuun nama hundumaaf mirkaneesseera.”
32 Kwathi besizwa ngokuvuka kwabafileyo, abanye bahleka usulu; kodwa abanye bathi: Sizaphinda sikuzwe ngalokhu.
Isaan keessaa namoonni tokko tokko yommuu waaʼee duʼaa kaʼuu warra duʼanii dhagaʼanitti ni qoosan; warri kaan immoo, “Nu ammas dubbii kana sirraa dhagaʼuu barbaanna” jedhan.
33 Langokunjalo uPawuli waphuma phakathi kwabo.
Kana irratti Phaawulos isaan keessaa baʼee deeme.
34 Kodwa amadoda athile anamathela kuye, akholwa; phakathi kwawo kwakukhona loDiyonisiyu umAreyopagu, lowesifazana obizo lakhe nguDamari, labanye kanye labo.
Namoonni tokko tokko garuu gama Phaawulos goranii amanan; isaan keessaas namichi Diiyonaasiyoos jedhamu kan miseensa Ariyoosphaagos ture tokko, dubartiin Damaariis jedhamtuu fi namoonni biraas isaan wajjin turan.
