Hojii 15
1 Namoonni tokko tokko Yihuudaa gara Anxookiiyaatti gad buʼanii, “Isin yoo akkuma seera Museetti dhagna qabachuu baattan fayyuu hin dandeessan” jedhanii obboloota barsiisaa turan.
And certain men who came down from Judea, taught the brethren, [and said], Except ye be circumcised after the manner of Moses, ye cannot be saved.
2 Kunis akka Phaawulosii fi Barnaabaas jara wajjin wal diddaa fi wal morkii cimaa keessa seenan isaan godhe; kanaaf Phaawulosii fi Barnaabaas waaʼee dubbii kanaatiif jedhanii akka Yerusaalemitti ol baʼanii ergamootaa fi maanguddoota bira dhaqaniif amantoota tokko tokko wajjin filataman.
When therefore Paul and Barnabas had no small dissension and disputation with them, they determined that Paul and Barnabas, and certain others of them, should go to Jerusalem to the apostles and elders about this question.
3 Waldaan kiristaanaas isaan ergite; isaanis akka Namoonni Ormaa Waaqatti deebiʼan odeessaa Finiiqee fi Samaariyaa keessa darban. Oduun kunis obboloota hunda akka malee gammachiise.
And being brought on their way by the church, they passed through Phenice, and Samaria, declaring the conversion of the Gentiles: and they caused great joy to all the brethren.
4 Yommuu isaan Yerusaalem gaʼanitti waldaan kiristaanaa, ergamoonnii fi maanguddoonni isaan simatan; isaanis waan Waaqni karaa isaaniitiin hojjete hunda jaratti himan.
And when they had come to Jerusalem, they were received by the church, and by the apostles and elders, and they declared all things that God had done with them.
5 Amantoonni garee Fariisotaa tokko tokko garuu kaʼanii dhaabatanii, “Namoonni Ormaa dhagna qabachuu qaban; akka seera Musee eeganiifis itti himamuu qaba” jedhan.
But there rose certain of the sect of the Pharisees, who believed, saying, That it was needful to circumcise them, and to command [them] to keep the law of Moses.
6 Ergamoonnii fi maanguddoonni dubbii kana ilaaluuf walitti qabaman.
And the apostles and elders came together to consider of this matter.
7 Phexrosis falmii guddaan booddee kaʼee dhaabatee akkana isaaniin jedhe; “Yaa obboloota, isin akka Waaqni yeroo gabaabaan dura akka Namoonni Ormaa afaan koo irraa dubbii wangeelaa dhagaʼanii amananiif jedhee isinuma keessaa na filate beektu.
And when there had been much disputing, Peter rose and said to them, Men, brethren, ye know that a good while ago, God made choice among us, that the Gentiles, by my mouth should hear the word of the gospel, and believe.
8 Waaqni yaada garaa namaa beeku sun akkuma nuuf kenne sanatti isaaniifis Hafuura Qulqulluu kennuudhaan akka isaan simate mirkaneesse.
And God, who knoweth the hearts, bore them witness, giving to them the Holy Spirit, even as [he did] to us:
9 Innis sababii garaa isaanii amantiin qulqulleesseef, nuu fi isaan gidduutti garaa garummaa tokko illee hin goone.
And put no difference between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith.
10 Yoos maaliif waanjoo nus abbootiin keenyas baachuu hin dandaʼin morma barattootaa irra kaaʼuudhaan Waaqa qortu ree?
Now therefore why tempt ye God, to put a yoke upon the neck of the disciples, which neither our fathers nor we were able to bear?
11 Nu akka ayyaana Gooftaa keenya Yesuusiitiin fayyinu ni amanna; isaanis akkasuma ni fayyu.”
But we believe, that through the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, we shall be saved even as they.
12 Yommuu Barnaabaasii fi Phaawulos waaʼee mallattoo fi dinqii Waaqni harka isaaniitiin Namoota Ormaa keessatti hojjete sanaa dubbatanitti yaaʼiin guutuun calʼisee isaan dhagaʼaa ture.
Then all the multitude kept silence, and gave audience to Barnabas and Paul, declaring what miracles and wonders God had wrought by them among the Gentiles.
13 Erga isaan dubbatanii fixanii booddees Yaaqoob akkana jedhe; “Yaa obboloota, mee na dhaggeeffadhaa!
And after they held their peace, James answered, saying, Men, brethren, hearken to me.
14 Simoonis akka Waaqni duraan dursee Namoota Ormaa keessaa saba tokko ofii isaatii filachuun jaalala isaa argisiise nutti himeera.
Simeon hath declared how God at the first visited the Gentiles to take from among them a people for his name.
15 Dubbiin raajotaas waan kana wajjin walii gala; innis akkana jedhamee barreeffameera:
And to this agree the words of the prophets; as it is written,
16 “‘Kana booddee ani nan deebiʼa; dunkaana Daawit kan kufe sana deebisee nan ijaara; diigamaa isaa immoo deebisee nan ijaara; deebisees nan dhaaba;
After this I will return, and will build again the tabernacle of David which is fallen down; and I will build again the ruins of it; and I will set it up:
17 kunis akka namoonni hafan jechuunis, Namoonni Ormaa warri maqaa kootiin waamaman hundinuu gooftaa barbaadaniif’
That the residue of men may seek after the Lord, and all the Gentiles, upon whom my name is called, saith the Lord, who doeth all these things.
Known to God are all his works from the beginning of the world. (aiōn g165)
19 “Kanaaf nu akka murtii kootiitti Namoota Ormaa kanneen Waaqatti deebiʼan rakkisuu hin qabnu.
Wherefore my sentence is, that we trouble not them, who from among the Gentiles are turned to God:
20 Qooda kanaa akka isaan nyaata waaqonni tolfamoon xureessan, sagaagalummaa, foon horii hudhamee duʼeetii fi dhiiga lagataniif xalayaa barreessinee itti himuu qabna.
But that we write to them that they abstain from pollutions of idols, and [from] lewdness, and [from] things strangled, and [from] blood.
21 Seerri Musee dhaloota duriitii jalqabee magaalaa hunda keessatti lallabamaa ture; manneen sagadaa keessattis Sanbata Sanbata ni dubbifama.”
For Moses of old time hath in every city them that preach him, being read in the synagogues every sabbath.
22 Yommus ergamoonnii fi maanguddoonni miseensota waldaa kiristaanaa guutuu wajjin tokko taʼanii namoota isaanii keessaa tokko tokko filatanii Phaawulosii fi Barnaabaas wajjin gara Anxookiiyaatti erguu murteessan; isaanis namoota lama jechuunis Yihuudaa isa Barsiyaan jedhamuu fi Siilaas kanneen obboloota keessatti dura buʼoota turan sana filatan.
Then it pleased the apostles and elders, with the whole church, to send chosen men of their own company to Antioch, with Paul and Barnabas; [namely], Judas surnamed Barsabas, and Silas, chief men among the brethren:
23 Xalayaa armaan gad jiru kanas isaanitti ergan: Obboloota keessan, ergamootaa fi maanguddoota irraa; Gara Namoota Ormaa kanneen amanan warra Anxookiiyaa, Sooriyaa fi Kiilqiyaa keessa jiraataniitti; Nagaa isinii dhaamna.
And they wrote [letters] by them after this manner; The apostles, and elders, and brethren, [send] greeting to the brethren who are of the Gentiles in Antioch, and Syria, and Cilicia.
24 Nu akka namoonni tokko tokko eeyyama keenya malee nu biraa baʼanii waan dubbataniin qalbii isin raasanii isin jeeqan dhageenyeerra.
Forasmuch as we have heard, that certain who went out from us, have troubled you with words, subverting your souls, saying, [Ye must] be circumcised, and keep the law; to whom we gave no [such] commandment:
25 Kanaafuu nu hundi namoota tokko tokko filannee obboloota keenya jaallatamoo Barnaabaasii fi Phaawulos jechuunis
It seemed good to us, being assembled with one accord, to send chosen men to you, with our beloved Barnabas and Paul:
26 namoota maqaa Gooftaa keenya Yesuus Kiristoosiitiif jedhanii jireenya isaanii kennan isinitti erguuf walii galle.
Men that have hazarded their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
27 Kanaafuu akka isaan waanuma nu barreessine sana dubbii afaaniitiin isinii mirkaneessaniif jennee Yihuudaa fi Siilaasin ergineerra.
We have sent therefore Judas and Silas, who will also tell [you] the same things by mouth.
28 Waan barbaachisaa armaan gad jiru kana malee akka nu baʼaa tokko illee isin irra hin keenye Hafuurri Qulqulluun jaallateera; nus itti gammanneerra;
For it seemed good to the Holy Spirit, and to us, to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things;
29 kunis akka isin nyaata waaqota tolfamoof aarsaa dhiʼeeffamu, dhiiga, foon horii hudhamee duʼeetii fi sagaagalummaa lagattanii dha. Isin yoo waan kana irraa of eegdan, waan qajeelaa hojjettan. Nagaatti.
That ye abstain from things offered to idols, and from blood, and from things strangled, and from lewdness: from which if ye keep yourselves, ye will do well. Fare ye well.
30 Jarri sunis ergamanii Anxookiiyaatti gad buʼan; achittis amantoota walitti qabanii xalayaa sana itti kennan.
So when they were dismissed, they came to Antioch: and when they had convened the multitude, they delivered the epistle.
31 Amantoonnis yommuu xalayaa sana dubbisanitti gorsa jajjabeessaa sanatti ni gammadan.
[Which] when they had read, they rejoiced for the consolation.
32 Yihuudaa fi Siilaas warri mataan isaanii iyyuu raajota turan sun dubbii baayʼeen obboloota gorsanii jajjabeessan.
And Judas and Silas, being prophets also themselves, exhorted the brethren with many words, and confirmed [them].
33 Erga isaan yeroo gabaabaa achi turanii booddees, obboloonni akka isaan warra isaan erganitti deebiʼaniif nagaan isaan geggeessan. [
And after they had tarried [there] a time, they were dismissed in peace from the brethren to the apostles.
34 Siilaas immoo achumatti hafuu murteesse.]
Notwithstanding, it pleased Silas to abide there still.
35 Phaawulosii fi Barnaabaas garuu Anxookiiyaatti hafanii namoota biraa hedduu wajjin dubbii Gooftaa barsiisan; ni lallabanis.
Paul also and Barnabas continued in Antioch, teaching and preaching the word of the Lord, with many others also.
36 Phaawulosis bultii gabaabduu booddee Barnaabaasiin, “Mee kottu, magaalaawwan itti dubbii Gooftaa lallabne hundatti deebinee obboloota dubbifnaa; haala isaan keessa jiranis ni ilaallaa!” jedhe.
And some days after, Paul said to Barnabas, Let us go again and visit our brethren, in every city where we have preached the word of the Lord, [and see] how they do.
37 Barnaabaasis Yohannis isa Maarqos jedhamu sana isaan wajjin fudhatee deemuu barbaade.
And Barnabas determined to take with them John, whose surname was Mark.
38 Phaawulos garuu sababii Maarqos isaan wajjin hojiitti fufuu didee Phamfiliyaatti isaan dhiisee deemeef akka inni isaan wajjin deemu hin jaallanne.
But Paul thought not good to take him with them, who departed from them from Pamphylia, and went not with them to the work.
39 Kana irratti waldhabiisni guddaan gidduu isaaniitti uumamnaan gargar baʼan; Barnaabaasis Maarqosin fudhatee dooniidhaan Qophiroositti qajeele.
And the contention was so sharp between them, that they departed, separating one from the other: and so Barnabas took Mark, and sailed to Cyprus.
40 Phaawulos immoo Siilaasin filatee erga obboloonni dabarsanii ayyaana gooftaatti isa kennanii booddee kaʼee deeme.
And Paul chose Silas, and departed, being commended by the brethren to the grace of God.
41 Innis waldoota kiristaanaa jajjabeessaa Sooriyaa fi Kiilqiyaa keessa darbe.
And he went through Syria and Cilicia, confirming the churches.
