Hojii 13
1 Waldaa kiristaanaa Anxookiiyaa keessa Raajotaa fi barsiistotatu ture; isaanis Barnaabaas, Simiʼoon isa Niiger jedhamu, Luukiyoos nama Qareenaa, Maanaaʼen isa Heroodis bulchaa sana wajjin guddatee fi Saaʼol faʼa.
And there were prophets and teachers in the church at Antioch; Barnabas, and Symeon called Niger, and Lucius the Cyrenean, and Manahem, the foster-brother of Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.
2 Utuu isaan Gooftaa tajaajilaa, soomaas jiranuu Hafuurri Qulqulluun, “Barnaabaasii fi Saaʼolin hojii ani itti isaan waammadheef naa filaa” jedhe.
And they ministering to the Lord, and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, Now separate unto me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them.
3 Kanaaf isaan erga soomanii kadhatanii booddee harka isaanii jara irra kaaʼanii isaan ergan.
Then they having fasted and prayed, and laid hands on them, sent them away.
4 Isaan lachuu Hafuura Qulqulluudhaan ergamanii Seluuqiyaatti gad buʼan; achiis kaʼanii dooniin Qophiroos dhaqan.
Then they indeed, having been sent away by the Holy Ghost, came down to Seleucia; and thence sailed away to Cyprus.
5 Yommuu Salaamiis gaʼanittis manneen sagadaa Yihuudootaa keessatti dubbii Waaqaa lallaban; Yohannisis isaan gargaaruuf isaan bira ture.
And being in Salamis, they preached the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews: and they also had John as their helper.
6 Isaanis yommuu biyyoota bishaaniin marfaman sana hundumaa keessa baʼanii hamma Phaafoositti dhufanitti, Yihuudii falfaltichaa fi raajii sobaa kan maqaan isaa Baaryesuus jedhamu tokkotti dhufan.
And having gone through the whole island to Paphos, they found a certain man, a magician, a Jewish false prophet, to whom was the name of Bar-Jesus:
7 Innis namicha hubataa bulchaa biyyaa taʼe kan Sergiyoos Phaawulos jedhamu tokko wajjin ture. Bulchaan sunis waan dubbii Waaqaa dhagaʼuu barbaadeef nama ergee Barnaabaasii fi Saaʼolin waamsifate.
who was with Sergius Paulus, the proconsul, an intelligent man. He, having called Barnabas and Saul, sought to hear the word of God;
8 Eliimaas falfaltichi kan hiikkaan maqaa isaa afaan Giriikiin akkasuma taʼe sun garuu bulchaa biyyaa sana amantii irraa deebisuuf jedhee isaaniin morme.
but Elymas the magician (for thus his name is interpreted) opposed them, seeking to turn away the proconsul from the faith.
9 Saaʼol inni Phaawulos jedhamu sun garuu Hafuura Qulqulluudhaan guutamee Eelimaasin hubatee ilaalee akkana jedheen;
And Saul, (who is also Paul), being filled with the Holy Ghost, fixing his eyes on him,
10 “Ati ilma diiyaabiloosii fi diina qajeelummaa hundaa ti! Sobaa fi gowwoomsaa gosa hundaatiinis guutamteerta. Ati karaa Gooftaa isa qajeelaa sana jalʼisuu hin dhiiftuu?
said, O thou full of all guile and rascality, thou son of the devil, thou enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease perverting the right ways of God?
11 Kunoo amma harki Gooftaa sitti kaʼeera; atis jaamtee yeroof ifa aduu arguu ni dadhabda.” Yeruma sana hurrii fi dukkanni isa irra buʼe; innis nama harka qabee isa qajeelchu barbaaduu jalqabe.
And now, behold, the hand of the Lord is upon thee, and thou shalt be blind, not seeing the sun for a time. And immediately there fell on him a mist and darkness; and going about he was seeking people to lead him by the hand.
12 Bulchaan biyyaa sunis waan kana arginaan amane; barsiisa waaʼee Gooftaa dinqifatee tureetii.
Then the deputy, seeing that which took place, believed; being delighted with the teaching of the Lord.
13 Phaawulosii fi miiltonni isaa Phaafoosii bidiruudhaan kaʼanii Phergeen ishee Phamfiliyaa sana dhaqan; Yohannisis achitti isaan dhiisee Yerusaalemitti deebiʼe.
And those around Paul having sailed from Paphos, came into Perge of Pamphylia: and John having departed from them returned to Jerusalem.
14 Isaan garuu Phergeenii kaʼanii gara Anxookiiyaa ishee Phisiidiyaatti argamtuu dhufan; guyyaa Sanbataas mana sagadaa seenanii tataaʼan.
And they having come from Perge, arrived into Picidian Antioch, and having come into the synagogue on the Sabbath day, they sat down.
15 Bulchitoonni mana sagadaa sanaas erga kitaabonni Seeraatii fi Raajotaa dubbifamanii booddee nama isaanitti erganii, “Yaa obboloota, yoo dubbii gorsaa uummataaf qabaattan mee dubbadhaa” jedhaniin.
And after the reading of the law and the prophets, the chief rulers of the synagogue sent to them, saying, Men, brethren, if there is any word of consolation to the people in you, speak.
16 Phaawulos kaʼee dhaabatee harkaan mallattoo argisiisee akkana jedhe; “Yaa namoota Israaʼel, isin warri Waaqa sodaattanis mee na dhagaʼaa!
And Paul, rising up, and beckoning with his hand said; Israelitish men, and those fearing God, hear.
17 Waaqni saba Israaʼel abbootii keenya filate; innis yeroo isaan biyya Gibxi jiraachaa turanitti sabicha saba guddaa godhe; irree jabaanis achii isaan baase;
The God of this people Israel chose our fathers, and exalted the people during their sojourn in the land of Egypt, and with a strong arm led them out of it;
18 gammoojjii keessattis gara waggaa afurtamaa isaanii obse.
and when he supported them about the time of forty years in the wilderness,
19 Biyya Kanaʼaan keessaas saboota torba balleessee lafa isaanii akka dhaalaatti saba isaatiif kenne.
and having destroyed seven nations in the land of Canaan, he gave them the inheritance of the land about four hundred and fifty years.
20 Wanni kun hundinuu gara waggaa 450 fudhatte. “Kana booddees Waaqni hamma bara Saamuʼeel raajichaatti abbootii murtii isaaniif kenne.
And after these things he gave them judges, till Samuel the prophet.
21 Yommuu isaan akka inni mootii kennuufiif isa kadhatanitti Waaqni gosa Beniyaam keessaa Saaʼol ilma Qiishi isaaniif kenne; Saaʼolis waggaa 40 isaan bulche.
And then they asked for a king: and God gave them Saul the son of Kish, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, forty years;
22 Waaqni Saaʼolin mootummaa irraa buusee Daawitin mootii isaanii godhe; innis, ‘Ani nama akka garaa koo Daawit ilma Isseey argadheera; inni waan ani akka inni hojjetu fedhu hunda ni hojjeta’ jedhee waaʼee Daawit rageesseera.
and having deposed him, he raised up to them David for a king; to whom witnessing he also said, I have found David the son of Jesse, a man according to my own heart, who will do all my wishes.
23 “Waaqnis akkuma abdachiise sana, sanyii nama kanaa keessaa Yesuus fayyisaa saba Israaʼeliif fide.
From whose seed according to the promise he led forth Jesus, the Savior, to Israel:
24 Yohannis dhufaatii Yesuus duratti cuuphaa qalbii jijjiirrannaa saba Israaʼel hundumatti lallabee ture.
and John having preached the baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel, before the face of his coming.
25 Yohannisis utuu ergama isaa guutachaa jiruu, ‘Isin eenyu na seetu? Ani isa isin eeggachaa jirtan miti. Garuu namni ani kophee isaa illee hiikuu hin malle tokko na duubaan ni dhufa’ jedhe.
And when John fulfilled his course, he said, What do you consider me to be? I am not he: but, behold, there comes one after me, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to loose.
26 “Obboloota, yaa ijoollee Abrahaam, isin warri Waaqa sodaattanis, dubbiin fayyina kanaa nuu ergame.
Men, brethren, sons of the race of Abraham, and those among you fearing God, unto us the word of this salvation was sent.
27 Warra Yerusaalem keessa jiraatanii fi bulchitoonni isaanii waan Yesuusin hin beekiniif yookaan dubbii raajotaa isa Sanbata Sanbata dubbifamu waan hin hubatiniif isatti muruudhaan dubbii raajotaa sana guutan.
For those dwelling in Jerusalem, and the rulers, having rejected him, condemning him, have
28 Isaanis yoo sababii duʼa isatti mursiisuu dandaʼu argachuu baatan illee akka Yesuus ajjeefamuuf Phiilaaxoosin kadhatan.
fulfilled the voices of the prophets which are read every Sabbath; and having found no cause of death, asked Pilate that he should be executed;
29 Erga waan waaʼee isaa barreeffame hunda guutatanii booddees fannoo irraa gad buusanii awwaala keessa isa kaaʼan.
and when they perfected all the things which had been written concerning him, taking him down from the cross, placed him in a sepulchre.
30 Waaqni garuu warra duʼan keessaa isa kaase.
And God raised him from the dead;
31 Innis warra isa wajjin Galiilaadhaa gara Yerusaalemitti ol baʼanitti guyyaa hedduu mulʼate; isaanis amma saba keenya duratti dhuga baatota isaa ti.
who appeared to those coming up with him to Jerusalem from Galilee many days, who are now his witnesses to the people.
32 “Nus oduu nama gammachiisu isinitti odeessina; oduun kunis: Waaqni waan abbootii keenya abdachiise sana,
And we preach unto you the promise, which was made to the fathers,
33 Yesuusin duʼaa kaasuudhaan nuu ijoollee isaaniitiif guuteera. Kunis akkuma faarfannaa lammaffaa keessatti akkana jedhamee barreeffamee dha; “‘Ati ilma koo ti; ani harʼa si dhalcheera.’
that God has fulfilled this unto our children, raising up Jesus, as in the second Psalm it has been written, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee.
34 Wanni Waaqni, akka inni gonkumaa hin tortorreef jedhee warra duʼan keessaa isa kaaseef akkana jedhamee dubbii kana keessatti barreeffameera; “‘Ani eebba qulqulluu fi mirkanaaʼaa, isa Daawit abdachiifame sana isiniif nan kenna.’
And because he raised him up from the dead, no longer about to return to corruption, He has thus said, I will give unto you the faithful mercies of David.
35 Akkasumas iddoo biraatti akkana jedha: “‘Qulqullichi kee akka tortoru hin gootu.’
Therefore He also says in another place, Thou wilt not suffer thy Holy One to see corruption.
36 “Daawitis bara isaa keessa fedhii Waaqaa tajaajilee boqote; abbootii isaa biratti awwaalame; dhagni isaas ni tortore.
For David, indeed having served his own generation according to the will of God, went to sleep, and did see corruption:
37 Inni Waaqni warra duʼan keessaa isa kaase sun garuu hin tortorre.
but he, whom God raised up, did not see corruption.
38 “Kanaaf yaa obboloota ko, isin akka karaa Yesuusiitiin dhiifamni cubbuu isinitti lallabame akka beektan nan fedha.
Then let it be known unto you, men brethren, that through this one remission of sins is preached:
39 Namni amanu hundinuu waan seera Museetiin furamuu hin dandaʼin hunda irraa karaa Yesuusiitiin furamuu ni dandaʼa.
and in him every one believing is justified from all things from which ye were not able to be justified by the law of Moses.
40 Isinis akka wanni raajonni dubbatan sun isin irra hin geenyeef of eeggadhaa; innis akkana jedha:
Then beware, lest the word which has been spoken by the prophets may come upon you;
41 “‘Ilaalaa, isin qoostota nana; dinqisiifadhaa; dhumaas; ani bara keessan keessa waan isin yoo namni tokko isinitti hime illee hin amanne tokko nan hojjedha.’”
Behold, ye despisers, and wonder, and vanish away: because I work a work in your days, a work which you may not believe, though one may proclaim it to you.
42 Utuu Phaawulosii fi Barnaabaas mana sagadaatii baʼuutti jiranuu namoonni sun akka isaan Sanbata itti aanu illee deebiʼanii dubbii sana lallabaniif isaan kadhatan.
And they going out, they continued to entreat them that these words should be spoken to them on the next Sabbath.
43 Erga wal gaʼiin mana sagadaa bittinnaaʼee booddee, Yihuudoonnii fi namoonni amantii Yihuudootaa fudhatanii itti bulan baayʼeen isaan duukaa buʼan; Phaawulosii fi Barnaabaasis jara sana wajjin dudubbatanii akka isaan ayyaana Waaqaatti jiraataniif cimsanii isaan gorsan.
And the synagogue having been adjourned, many of the Jews and pious proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas, who, speaking with them, continued to persuade them to abide in the grace of God.
44 Sanbata itti aanutti nama muraasa malee uummanni magaalaa sanaa guutuun dubbii Gooftaa dhagaʼuuf walitti qabame.
And on the following Sabbath almost all the city came together to hear the word of the Lord.
45 Yihuudoonni garuu uummata baayʼee arganii hinaaffaan guutaman; Phaawulosinis arrabsanii waan inni dubbateen morman.
And the Jews seeing the multitudes, were filled with jealousy, and contradicted the word spoken by Paul, contradicting and blaspheming.
46 Phaawulosii fi Barnaabaasis akkana jedhanii sodaa malee deebii kennaniif; “Nu duraan dursinee dubbii Waaqaa isinitti himuu qabna ture; isin garuu dubbii sana diddanii akka jireenyi bara baraa isiniif hin malleetti waan of heddaniif kunoo, nu amma gara Namoota Ormaatti gara galla. (aiōnios g166)
And Paul and Barnabas speaking boldly, said, It was necessary that the word of God should first be spoken to you: since you have rejected it, and judge yourselves not worthy of eternal life, behold we now turn to the Gentiles. (aiōnios g166)
47 Gooftaan akkana jedhee nu ajajeeraatii; “‘Ani akka ati Namoota Ormaatiif ifa taatee, hamma qarqara lafaatti fayyina geessituuf si filadheera.’”
For thus the Lord has commanded us, I have placed thee for a light of the Gentiles, that thou shalt be for salvation unto the extremity of the earth.
48 Namoonni Ormaas yommuu waan kana dhagaʼanitti gammadanii dubbii Gooftaa ulfeessan; warri jireenya bara baraatiif filataman hundinuus ni amanan. (aiōnios g166)
And the Gentiles hearing, rejoiced, and glorified the word of the Lord: and so many as had been ordained unto eternal life believed: (aiōnios g166)
49 Dubbiin Gooftaas naannoo sana hunda keessatti facaafame.
and the word of the Lord was carried throughout all the country.
50 Yihuudoonni garuu dubartoota bebeekamoo Waaqa sodaatanii fi dura buʼoota magaalattii isaanitti tuttuqan; isaanis Phaawulosii fi Barnaabaas irratti ariʼatama kaasanii biyya isaanii keessaa isaan baasan.
And the Jews stirred up the noble godly women, and the first men of the city, and they raised a persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and expelled them from their borders.
51 Isaan garuu akka akeekkachiisa isaaniif taʼuuf, awwaara miilla isaanii dhadhaʼatanii Iqooniyoonitti qajeelan.
And having cast off the dust from their feet against them, they came into Iconium.
52 Barattoonnis gammachuu fi Hafuura Qulqulluudhaan guutaman.
And the disciples were filled with joy, and the Holy Ghost.
