Hojii 12
1 Baruma sana keessa Heroodis mootichi isaan ariʼachuuf jedhee miseensota waldaa kiristaanaa tokko tokko qabe.
Now about that time Herod the king put forth his hands to afflict certain of the church.
2 Innis Yaaqoob obboleessa Yohannis goraadeen ajjeese.
And he killed James the brother of John with the sword.
3 Yommuu akka wanni kun Yihuudoota gammachiise argettis, ittuma fufee Phexrosinis qabsiise. Wanni kunis yeroo Ayyaana Maxinoo keessa taʼe.
And when he saw that it pleased the Jews, he proceeded to seize Peter also. And [those] were the days of unleavened bread.
4 Erga isa qabee booddee akka isaan isa eeganiif jedhee gareewwan loltootaa afur kanneen tokkoon tokkoon isaanii loltoota afur afur of keessaa qabanitti dabarsee isa kennuudhaan, mana hidhaa keessa isa buuse; kanas ayyaana Faasiikaa booddee fuula uummataa duratti dhiʼeessee isa qoruuf godhe.
And when he had taken him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four quaternions of soldiers to guard him; intending after the Passover to bring him forth to the people.
5 Kanaafuu Phexros mana hidhaa keessatti eegamaa ture; waldaan kiristaanaa garuu jabeessitee waaʼee isaatiif Waaqa kadhachaa turte.
Peter therefore was kept in the prison: but prayer was made earnestly of the church unto God for him.
6 Edumtii guyyaa Heroodis itti Phexrosin dhiʼeessuuf ture sanaa Phexros foncaa lamaan hidhamee loltoota lama gidduu rafaa ture; loltoonni kaanis balbala dura dhaabatanii mana hidhaa sana eegaa turan.
And when Herod was about to bring him forth, the same night Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains: and guards before the door kept the prison.
7 Akkuma tasaas, ergamaan Gooftaa tokko mulʼate; kutaa mana hidhaa sana keessattis ifni ife; ergamaan sunis cinaacha Phexros tuqee isa dammaqsuudhaan, “Dafii kaʼi!” jedheen. Foncaan sunis harka isaa irraa harcaʼe.
And behold, an angel of the Lord stood by him, and a light shined in the cell: and he smote Peter on the side, and awoke him, saying, Rise up quickly. And his chains fell off from his hands.
8 Ergamaan Waaqaa sunis, “Uffata kee uffadhu; kophee kees kaaʼadhu” jedheen. Phexrosis akkasuma godhe. Ergamaan sunis, “Wayyaa kee marxifadhuutii na faana buʼi” jedheen.
And the angel said unto him, Gird thyself, and bind on thy sandals. And he did so. And he saith unto him, Cast thy garment about thee, and follow me.
9 Phexrosis isa duukaa buʼee mana hidhaatii baʼe; innis waan mulʼata argu seʼe malee akka wanni ergamaan Waaqaa hojjechaa ture sun dhugaa taʼe hin beekne.
And he went out, and followed; and he knew not that it was true which was done by the angel, but thought he saw a vision.
10 Isaanis waardiyyaa duraatii fi isa lammaffaa bira darbanii balbala sibiilaa kan magaalaatti gad baasu bira gaʼan; balballi sunis ofumaan banameef; isaanis gad baʼanii utuu daandii tokko irra gad buʼaa jiranuu ergamaan sun isa biraa sokke.
And when they were past the first and the second guard, they came unto the iron gate that leadeth into the city; which opened to them of its own accord: and they went out, and passed on through one street; and straightway the angel departed from him.
11 Phexrosis qalbii isaatti deebiʼee, “Ani amma akka Gooftaan ergamaa isaa ergee harka Heroodisii fi waan Yihuudoonni natti yaadaa turan hunda jalaa na baase shakkii malee beekeera” jedhe.
And when Peter was come to himself, he said, Now I know of a truth, that the Lord hath sent forth his angel and delivered me out of the hand of Herod, and from all the expectation of the people of the Jews.
12 Innis erga waan kana hubatee booddee mana Maariyaam haadha Yohannis isa Maarqos jedhamu sanaa iddoo itti namoonni baayʼeen walitti qabamanii kadhachaa turan dhaqe.
And when he had considered [the thing], he came to the house of Mary the mother of John whose surname was Mark; where many were gathered together and were praying.
13 Yommuu Phexros balbala alaa rurrukutetti intalli hojjettuun Roodaa jedhamtu tokko ilaaluu dhufte.
And when he knocked at the door of the gate, a maid came to answer, named Rhoda.
14 Isheenis yommuu sagalee Phexros hubattetti akka malee gammadde; balbala banuu dhiiftees fiigdee ol deebitee akka Phexros balbala dura dhaabatu himte.
And when she knew Peter’s voice, she opened not the gate for joy, but ran in, and told that Peter stood before the gate.
15 Isaanis, “Ati maraatteerta!” jedhaniin; isheen garuu cimsitee akka wanni kun akkasuma taʼe dubbatte; isaan immoo, “Yoos ergamaa isaa ti!” jedhan.
And they said unto her, Thou art mad. But she confidently affirmed that it was even so. And they said, It is his angel.
16 Phexros garuu ittuma fufee balbalicha rurrukute; isaanis yommuu bananitti, isa arganii dinqifatan.
But Peter continued knocking: and when they had opened, they saw him, and were amazed.
17 Phexrosis akka isaan calʼisaniif harkaan itti hime; akka itti Gooftaan mana hidhaatii isa baases isaanitti odeesse; innis, “Waan kana Yaaqoobii fi obbolootatti himaa” isaaniin jedhe; achii kaʼees lafa biraa dhaqe.
But he, beckoning unto them with the hand to hold their peace, declared unto them how the Lord had brought him forth out of the prison. And he said, Tell these things unto James, and to the brethren. And he departed, and went to another place.
18 Yommuu bariʼetti raafamni guddaan isaa loltoota gidduutti uumame; isaanis, “Phexros maal taʼe?” jedhanii wal gaggaafatan.
Now as soon as it was day, there was no small stir among the soldiers, what was become of Peter.
19 Heroodisis cimsee barbaadee isa dhabnaan eegdota sana jabeessee qoree akka isaan ajjeefaman ajaje. Heroodis Yihuudaadhaa kaʼee Qiisaariyaatti gad buʼee xinnoo achi jiraate.
And when Herod had sought for him, and found him not, he examined the guards, and commanded that they should be put to death. And he went down from Judæa to Cæsarea, and tarried there.
20 Innis warra Xiiroosii fi Siidoonaatti akka malee aare; isaanis tajaajilaa mootichaa amanamaa Bilaasxoos jedhamu tokko michoomfatanii tokkummaan gara mootichaa dhaqanii araara kadhatan; biyyi isaanii biyya mooticha sanaa irraa midhaan nyaataa argachaa jiraatteetii.
Now he was highly displeased with them of Tyre and Sidon: and they came with one accord to him, and, having made Blastus the king’s chamberlain their friend, they asked for peace, because their country was fed from the king’s country.
21 Guyyaa beellamaattis Heroodis uffata mootii uffatee teessoo isaa irra taaʼe; uummatattis dubbate.
And upon a set day Herod arrayed himself in royal apparel, and sat on the throne, and made an oration unto them.
22 Namoonnis, “Kun sagalee Waaqaati malee sagalee namaa miti” jedhanii iyyan.
And the people shouted, [saying], The voice of a god, and not of a man.
23 Heroodisis waan Waaqaaf ulfina hin kenniniif yeruma sana ergamaan Waaqaa tokko isa dhaʼe; innis raammoodhaan nyaatamee duʼe.
And immediately an angel of the Lord smote him, because he gave not God the glory: and he was eaten of worms, and gave up the ghost.
24 Dubbiin Waaqaa garuu ittuma fufee guddachaa, babalʼachaas deeme.
But the word of God grew and multiplied.
25 Barnaabaasii fi Saaʼol erga ergama isaanii fixatanii booddee Yohannis isa Maarqos jedhamu sana fudhatanii Yerusaalemii deebiʼan.
And Barnabas and Saul returned from Jerusalem, when they had fulfilled their ministration, taking with them John whose surname was Mark.
