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.
Now there were in the church that was at Antioch certain prophets and teachers; as Barnabas, and Simeon that was called Niger, and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manaen, who had been brought up with 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.
As they ministered to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Spirit said, Separate for 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.
And when they had fasted and prayed, and laid [their] hands on them, they sent [them] away.
4 Isaan lachuu Hafuura Qulqulluudhaan ergamanii Seluuqiyaatti gad buʼan; achiis kaʼanii dooniin Qophiroos dhaqan.
So they being sent forth by the Holy Spirit, departed to Seleucia; and from thence they sailed to Cyprus.
5 Yommuu Salaamiis gaʼanittis manneen sagadaa Yihuudootaa keessatti dubbii Waaqaa lallaban; Yohannisis isaan gargaaruuf isaan bira ture.
And when they were at Salamis, they preached the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews. And they had also John for [their] minister.
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 when they had gone through the isle to Paphos, they found a certain sorcerer, a false prophet, a Jew, whose name [was] Barjesus:
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 the deputy of the country, Sergius Paulus, a prudent man; who called for Barnabas and Saul, and desired 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 sorcerer (for so is his name by interpretation) withstood them, seeking to turn away the deputy from the faith.
9 Saaʼol inni Phaawulos jedhamu sun garuu Hafuura Qulqulluudhaan guutamee Eelimaasin hubatee ilaalee akkana jedheen;
Then Saul (who also [is called] Paul) filled with the Holy Spirit, set 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?
And said, O full of all subtilty, and all mischief, [thou] child of the devil, [thou] enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?
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 season. And immediately there fell on him a mist and a darkness; and he went about seeking some to lead him by the hand.
12 Bulchaan biyyaa sunis waan kana arginaan amane; barsiisa waaʼee Gooftaa dinqifatee tureetii.
Then the deputy, when he saw what was done, believed, being astonished at the doctrine of the Lord.
13 Phaawulosii fi miiltonni isaa Phaafoosii bidiruudhaan kaʼanii Phergeen ishee Phamfiliyaa sana dhaqan; Yohannisis achitti isaan dhiisee Yerusaalemitti deebiʼe.
Now when Paul and his company loosed from Paphos, they came to Perga in Pamphylia. And John departing from them, returned to Jerusalem.
14 Isaan garuu Phergeenii kaʼanii gara Anxookiiyaa ishee Phisiidiyaatti argamtuu dhufan; guyyaa Sanbataas mana sagadaa seenanii tataaʼan.
But when they departed from Perga, they came to Antioch in Pisidia, and went into the synagogue on the sabbath, and 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 rulers of the synagogue sent to them, saying, Men, brethren, if ye have any word of exhortation for the people, speak.
16 Phaawulos kaʼee dhaabatee harkaan mallattoo argisiisee akkana jedhe; “Yaa namoota Israaʼel, isin warri Waaqa sodaattanis mee na dhagaʼaa!
Then Paul stood up, and beckoning with [his] hand, said, Men of Israel, and ye that fear God, give audience.
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 when they dwelt as strangers in the land of Egypt, and with a high arm he brought them out of it.
18 gammoojjii keessattis gara waggaa afurtamaa isaanii obse.
And about the time of forty years he suffered their manners in the wilderness.
19 Biyya Kanaʼaan keessaas saboota torba balleessee lafa isaanii akka dhaalaatti saba isaatiif kenne.
And when he had destroyed seven nations in the land of Canaan, he divided their land to them by lot.
20 Wanni kun hundinuu gara waggaa 450 fudhatte. “Kana booddees Waaqni hamma bara Saamuʼeel raajichaatti abbootii murtii isaaniif kenne.
And after that he gave [to them] judges, about the space of four hundred and fifty years, until 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 afterward they desired a king: and God gave to them Saul the son of Kish, a man of the tribe of Benjamin, by the space of 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 when he had removed him, he raised up to them David to be their king: to whom also he gave testimony, and said, I have found David the [son] of Jesse, a man after my own heart, who shall fulfill all my will.
23 “Waaqnis akkuma abdachiise sana, sanyii nama kanaa keessaa Yesuus fayyisaa saba Israaʼeliif fide.
Of this man's offspring hath God, according to [his] promise, raised up to Israel a Savior, Jesus:
24 Yohannis dhufaatii Yesuus duratti cuuphaa qalbii jijjiirrannaa saba Israaʼel hundumatti lallabee ture.
John having first preached, before his coming, the baptism of repentance to all the people of Israel.
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 as John fulfilled his course, he said, Whom think ye that I am? I am not [he]. But behold, there cometh one after me, whose shoes of [his] feet I am not worthy to loose.
26 “Obboloota, yaa ijoollee Abrahaam, isin warri Waaqa sodaattanis, dubbiin fayyina kanaa nuu ergame.
Men, brethren, children of the stock of Abraham, and whoever among you feareth God, to you is the word of this salvation 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 they that dwell at Jerusalem, and their rulers, because they knew him not, nor yet the words of the prophets which are read every sabbath, they have fulfilled [them] in condemning [him].
28 Isaanis yoo sababii duʼa isatti mursiisuu dandaʼu argachuu baatan illee akka Yesuus ajjeefamuuf Phiilaaxoosin kadhatan.
And though they found no cause of death [in him], yet they desired Pilate that he should be put to death.
29 Erga waan waaʼee isaa barreeffame hunda guutatanii booddees fannoo irraa gad buusanii awwaala keessa isa kaaʼan.
And when they had fulfilled all that was written concerning him, they took [him] down from the tree, and laid [him] in a sepulcher.
30 Waaqni garuu warra duʼan keessaa isa kaase.
But 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.
And he was seen many days by them who came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses to the people.
32 “Nus oduu nama gammachiisu isinitti odeessina; oduun kunis: Waaqni waan abbootii keenya abdachiise sana,
And we declare to you the glad tidings, that 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.’
God hath fulfilled the same to us their children, in that he hath raised up Jesus again; as it is also written in the second psalm, 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 as concerning that he raised him from the dead, [now] no more to return to corruption, he said on this wise, I will give you the sure mercies of David.
35 Akkasumas iddoo biraatti akkana jedha: “‘Qulqullichi kee akka tortoru hin gootu.’
Wherefore he saith also in another [psalm], 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, after he had served his own generation by the will of God, fell asleep, and was laid to his fathers, and saw corruption:
37 Inni Waaqni warra duʼan keessaa isa kaase sun garuu hin tortorre.
But he whom God raised again, saw no corruption.
38 “Kanaaf yaa obboloota ko, isin akka karaa Yesuusiitiin dhiifamni cubbuu isinitti lallabame akka beektan nan fedha.
Be it known to you therefore, men, brethren, that through this man is preached to you the forgiveness of sins;
39 Namni amanu hundinuu waan seera Museetiin furamuu hin dandaʼin hunda irraa karaa Yesuusiitiin furamuu ni dandaʼa.
And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses.
40 Isinis akka wanni raajonni dubbatan sun isin irra hin geenyeef of eeggadhaa; innis akkana jedha:
Beware therefore, lest that come upon you which is spoken in the prophets;
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 perish: for I work a work in your days, a work which ye will in no wise believe, though a man declare 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 when the Jews had gone out of the synagogue, the Gentiles besought that these words might be preached to them 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.
Now when the congregation was broken up, many of the Jews and religious proselytes followed Paul and Barnabas; who speaking to them, persuaded them to continue in the grace of God.
44 Sanbata itti aanutti nama muraasa malee uummanni magaalaa sanaa guutuun dubbii Gooftaa dhagaʼuuf walitti qabame.
And the next sabbath came almost the whole city together to hear the word of God.
45 Yihuudoonni garuu uummata baayʼee arganii hinaaffaan guutaman; Phaawulosinis arrabsanii waan inni dubbateen morman.
But when the Jews saw the multitudes, they were filled with envy, and spoke against those things which were uttered 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)
Then Paul and Barnabas became bold, and said, It was necessary that the word of God should first be spoken to you: but seeing ye reject it, and judge yourselves unworthy of everlasting life, lo, we 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 so hath the Lord commanded us, [saying], I have set thee to be a light of the Gentiles, that thou shouldst be for salvation to the ends 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 when the Gentiles heard this, they were glad, and glorified the word of the Lord: and as many as were ordained to eternal life, believed. (aiōnios g166)
49 Dubbiin Gooftaas naannoo sana hunda keessatti facaafame.
And the word of the Lord was published throughout all the region.
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.
But the Jews stirred up the devout and honorable women, and the chief men of the city, and raised persecution against Paul and Barnabas, and expelled them from their borders.
51 Isaan garuu akka akeekkachiisa isaaniif taʼuuf, awwaara miilla isaanii dhadhaʼatanii Iqooniyoonitti qajeelan.
But they shook off the dust of their feet against them, and came to Iconium.
52 Barattoonnis gammachuu fi Hafuura Qulqulluudhaan guutaman.
And the disciples were filled with joy and with the Holy Spirit.
