1 Tasaloniiqee 1
1 Phaawulos, Silwaanosii fi Xiimotewos irraa, Gara waldaa kiristaanaa warra Tasaloniiqee kan Waaqa Abbaatii fi kan Gooftaa Yesuus Kiristoos taateetti: Ayyaannii fi nagaan isiniif haa taʼu.
Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy to the church of the Thessalonians in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. May grace and peace be to you.
2 Nu kadhannaa keenya keessatti maqaa keessan dhoofnee yeroo hunda waaʼee hunda keessaniitiif Waaqa ni galateeffanna.
We always give thanks to God for all of you, as we mention you in our prayers.
3 Nu hojii amantii keessanii, dadhabbii jaalala keessanii fi obsa abdii keessanii kan Gooftaa keenya Yesuus Kiristoositti qabdan sana Waaqa keenyaa fi Abbaa keenya duratti ittuma fufnee ni yaadanna.
We remember without ceasing before our God and Father your work of faith, labor of love, and steadfastness of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ.
4 Yaa obboloota Waaqaan jaallatamtan, nu akka inni isin filate beeknaatii;
Brothers loved by God, we know he has chosen you,
5 wangeelli keenya humnaan, Hafuura Qulqulluu fi amansiisa guddaan malee dubbii afaanii qofaan gara keessan hin dhufneetii. Nu isiniif jennee akkamitti akka isin gidduu jiraanne ni beektu.
because our gospel came to you not in word only, but also in power, in the Holy Spirit, and in much assurance. In the same way, you also know what kind of men we were among you for your sake.
6 Isinis fakkeenya keenyaa fi fakkeenya Gooftaa duukaa buutaniirtu; utuma dhiphina guddaa keessa jirtanuus gammachuu Hafuurri Qulqulluun isinii kennuun dubbicha fudhattaniirtu.
You became imitators of us and of the Lord, as you received the word in much hardship with joy from the Holy Spirit.
7 Kanaanis amantoota Maqedooniyaa fi Akaayaa jiran hundaaf fakkeenya taatanii jirtan.
As a result, you became an example to all in Macedonia and Achaia who believe.
8 Dubbiin Gooftaa isin biraa baʼee Maqedooniyaa fi Akaayaa qofatti hin dhagaʼamne; amantiin isin Waaqatti qabdanis lafa hunda gaʼeera. Kanaafuu waaʼee isaa homaa dubbachuu nu hin barbaachisu;
For from you the word of the Lord has rung out, and not only in Macedonia and Achaia—everywhere your faith in God has gone out. Therefore we do not need to say anything about it.
9 isin simannaa akkamii akka nuu gootan isaanuu ni dubbatuutii. Isaan akkamitti akka isin Waaqa jiraataa fi Waaqa dhugaa tajaajiluuf jettanii waaqota tolfamoo irraa gara Waaqaatti deebitanis ni himu;
For they themselves report what kind of coming we had among you. They tell how you turned to God from the idols to serve the living and true God.
10 akkasumas Ilma isaa isa inni warra duʼan keessaa kaase jechuunis Yesuus isa dheekkamsa dhufu jalaa nu baasu sana akka samii irraa eeggattan ni himu.
They report that you are waiting for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead. This is Jesus, who frees us from the wrath to come.
