Hojii 21
1 Erga isaaniin gargar baanee booddees dooniidhaan kaanee utuu mirgaa bitaatti hin gorin Qoositti qajeelle. Guyyaa itti aanutti Roodees dhaqnee achii immoo Phaaxaraatti dabarre.
And when it came to pass, that we having been farewelled by them, embarked, sailing straight forward, we arrived at Cos, and on the following day to Rhodes, and thence to Patara.
2 Doonii Finiiqeetti ceʼu tokkos argannee isa yaabbannee adeemsa itti fufne.
And finding a ship sailing into Phoenicia, having embarked, we moved out.
3 Yommuu Qophiroosin arguu dandeenyetti, harka bitaatti ishee dhiifnee Sooriyaatti qajeelle; nus iddoo dooniin keenya feʼiisa isaa itti buufachuuf ture Xiiroositti irraa buune.
And coming in sight of Cyprus, and leaving it on the left, we sailed to Syria, and disembarked at Tyre: for there the ship was delivering her cargo.
4 Achitti barattoota argannee guyyaa torba isaan bira turre. Isaanis akka Phaawulos Yerusaalem hin dhaqneef Hafuura Qulqulluun isa akeekkachiisan.
And finding disciples, we tarried there seven days: who continued to say to Paul through the Spirit, that he should not go to Jerusalem.
5 Garuu yeroon keenya dhumnaan achii kaanee deemsa keenya itti fufne; barattoonni hundinuu niitota isaaniitii fi ijoollee isaanii wajjin magaalattii keessaa nu baasanii nu geggeessan; nus qarqara galaanaatti jilbeenfannee kadhanne.
And when it came to pass that we refitted during those days, having come out, we departed, all sending us forth, along with the women and children, out of the city: and putting down the knees on the shore, having prayed,
6 Erga nagaatti waliin jennee booddees doonii yaabbanne; isaan immoo mana isaaniitti deebiʼan.
we farewelled one another, and went up into the ship; and they returned to their own homes.
7 Xiiroosii kaanee adeemsa keenya itti fufuudhaan Phitolemaayisitti galle; achittis obboloota dubbifnee guyyaa tokko isaan bira oolle.
And we continuing our voyage from Tyre, we arrived at Ptolemais, and having saluted the brethren, we remained with them one day.
8 Guyyaa itti aanutti achii kaanee Qiisaariyaa geenye; achittis mana lallabaa wangeelaa tokkoo mana Fiiliphoos isa warra torbaan keessaa tokko ture sanaa dhaqnee isa bira turre.
And on the following day, having come out, we came into Caesarea: and having entered into the house of Philip the evangelist, being one of the seven, we abode with him.
9 Innis ijoollee durbaa kanneen hin heerumin afur qaba ture; isaanis raajii dubbatu turan.
And there were to him four virgin daughters, prophesying.
10 Erga nu guyyaa hedduu achi turree booddee raajiin Agaaboos jedhamu tokko Yihuudaadhaa gad buʼe.
And we remaining many days, a certain prophet, by name Agabus, came down from Judea;
11 Innis gara keenya dhufee sabbata Phaawulos fuudhee harkaa fi miilla ofii isaa hidhee, “Hafuurri Qulqulluun, ‘Yihuudoonni Yerusaalem jiraatan abbaa sabbata kanaa akkanatti hidhanii dabarsanii Namoota Ormaatti isa kennu’ jedha” jedhe.
and having come to us, and taking the girdle of Paul, binding his own feet and hands, said, These things says the Holy Ghost, The man whose girdle this is, will the Jews in Jerusalem bind and deliver into the hands of the Gentiles.
12 Nus yommuu waan kana dhageenyetti akka Phaawulos Yerusaalemitti ol hin baaneef namoota achi jiran wajjin isa kadhanne.
And when we heard these words, both we, and the citizens, exhorted him not to go up to Jerusalem.
13 Phaawulos immoo deebisee, “Isin maaliif boossanii garaa na raaftu? Ani maqaa Gooftaa Yesuusiitiif jedhee Yerusaalemitti hidhamuu qofa utuu hin taʼin duʼuuf illee qophaaʼeeraatii” jedhe.
Then Paul responded and said, What are you doing, weeping and breaking my heart? for I am ready not only to be bound, but to die in Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus.
14 Yommuu inni nuu sarmuu didettis, “Fedhiin Gooftaa haa taʼu” jennee dhiifne.
And he not being persuaded, we acquiesced, saying, Let the will of the Lord be done.
15 Guyyoota kanneen booddees qophoofnee Yerusaalemitti ol baane.
And after those days, taking our luggage, we went up to Jerusalem:
16 Barattoonni Qiisaariyaa keessaa tokko tokko nu miiltessanii gara mana Minaason nu geessan; innis nama Qophiroos kan barattoota durii keessaa tokko turee dha.
and some of the disciples from Caesarea went along with us, bringing Mnason a certain Cyprian, an old disciple, with whom we should lodge.
17 Yommuu nu Yerusaalem geenyetti obboloonni gammachuudhaan nu simatan.
And we being in Jerusalem, the brethren received us gladly.
18 Guyyaa itti aanuttis Phaawulos nu wajjin Yaaqoob bira dhaqe; jaarsoliin hundinuus achi turan.
And on the following day, Paul goes with us to James; and all the elders assembled.
19 Phaawulosis nagaa isaan gaafatee waan Waaqni tajaajila inni kenneen Namoota Ormaa keessatti hojjete hunda tokko tokkoon isaanii ibse.
And having saluted them, he related each one of those things which God did among the Gentiles through his ministry.
20 Isaan yommuu waan kana dhagaʼanitti Waaqa galateeffatan. Phaawulosiinis akkana jedhan; “Yaa obboleessa, ati akka Yihuudoonni kuma hedduun amanan ni argita; hundi isaaniis hinaaffaa seeraaf qabu.
And they hearing, continued to glorify God, and said to him, You see, brother, how many myriads there are of those who believe; and they are all zealots of the law:
21 Ati akka Yihuudoonni Namoota Ormaa keessa jiraatan hundinuu ilmaan isaanii dhagna hin qabnee fi akka isaan akka duudhaa keenyaatti hin jiraanne itti himtee akka isaan seera Musee irraa gara galan barsiisuun kee isaanitti himameera.
and they have been informed concerning thee, that thou art teaching all the Jews who are among the Gentiles apostasy from Moses, saying that they are not to circumcise their children, nor to walk according to the customs.
22 Isaan akka ati dhufte dhugumaan ni dhagaʼu; egaa maal gochuu wayya?
Then what is it? it is altogether necessary that the multitude come together: for they will hear that you have come.
23 Kanaaf ati waan nu sitti himnu godhi; namoonni wareega of irraa qaban afur nu bira jiru.
Therefore do this which we tell thee. There are four men among us having a vow upon them;
24 Akka isaan mataa isaanii haaddataniif namoota kanneen ofitti fuudhiitii isaan wajjin of qulqulleessiitii baasii isaanii ati baasi. Kanaanis namoonni hundinuu akka oduun waaʼee kee odeeffame sun dhugaa hin taʼin, akka ati mataan kee iyyuu seeraaf ajajamtee jiraattu ni beeku.
taking them, be purified along with them, and be at charges for them, that they may shave their head: and all shall know that there is nothing of those things they have been informed concerning thee; but that thyself art walking, keeping the law.
25 Waaʼee Namoota Ormaa kanneen amananii immoo akka isaan nyaata waaqota tolfamoof aarsaa dhiʼeeffame, dhiiga, foon horii hudhamee duʼeetii fi sagaagalummaa lagataniif nu murtii keenya isaaniif barreessineerra.”
But concerning the Gentiles who have believed, we have sent to them, adjudicating that they keep themselves from idolatry, and blood, and strangulation, and fornication.
26 Phaawulosis guyyaa itti aanutti namoota sana ofitti fuudhee isaan wajjin of qulqulleesse; ergasii immoo gaafa guyyoonni qulqullaaʼummaa sun itti xumuramanii fi yeroo itti aarsaan maqaa tokkoo tokkoo isaaniitiin dhiʼeeffamuu malu beeksisuuf mana qulqullummaa seene.
Then Paul, having taken the men, the next day being purified along with them, enters into the temple, proclaiming the fulfillment of the days of purification, until an offering may be made for each one of them.
27 Yommuu guyyoonni torban sun xumuramuu gaʼanitti Yihuudoonni biyya Asiyaatii dhufan tokko tokko Phaawulosin mana qulqullummaa keessatti argan. Isaanis nama hundumaa kakaasanii isa qaban.
And when the seven days were about to have an end, the Jews from Asia, seeing him in the temple, stirred up the whole multitude, and laid hands on him, crying out,
28 Iyyaniis, “Yaa namoota Israaʼel nu gargaaraa! Namichi kun nama saba keenyaan mormaa, seera keenyaa fi mana qulqullummaa mormaa nama hunda iddoo hundatti barsiisuu dha. Kana malees inni Giriikota mana qulqullummaatti ol galchee iddoo qulqulluu kana xureesseera” jedhan.
Israelitish men, help: this is the man, teaching all everywhere against the people, and the law, and this place, and he has even yet led Greeks into the temple, and polluted this holy place.
29 Isaan waan duraan namicha Efesoon kan maqaan isaa Xiroofiimoos jedhamu tokko Phaawulos biratti magaalaa keessatti arganii turaniif, waan Phaawulos mana qulqullummaatti ol isa galche seʼaniitii.
For they saw Trophimus the Ephesian in the city with him, whom they supposed that Paul led into the temple.
30 Magaalaan sunis guutummaatti ni raafamte; namoonnis karaa hundumaan fiigaa dhufan. Isaanis Phaawulosin qabanii lafa irra harkisaa mana qulqullummaatii gad baasan; yommusuma karroonni cufaman.
And the whole city was excited, and there was a commotion of the people: and taking Paul, they dragged him out of the temple; and immediately the doors were closed.
31 Utuu isaan isa ajjeesuu yaalanuu akka magaalaan Yerusaalem guutummaatti raafamaa jirtu oduun ajajaa waraana Roomaa gaʼe.
And seeking to kill him, the report went up to the chiliarch of the band, that all Jerusalem is in commotion;
32 Innis yeruma sana loltootaa fi ajajjuuwwan dhibbaa tokko tokko fudhatee fiigichaan isaanitti gad buʼe. Isaanis yommuu ajajaa sanaa fi loltoota isaa arganitti Phaawulosin tumuu dhiisan.
who immediately, taking soldiers and centurions, ran to them: and they, seeing the chiliarch and the soldiers, ceased beating Paul.
33 Ajajaan sunis dhufee isa qabe; akka inni foncaa lamaan hidhamus ajaje; akka inni eenyu taʼee fi akka inni maal hojjechaa tures isa gaafate.
Then the chiliarch, having come nigh, took Paul, and commanded that he should be bound with two chains; and was making inquiry who he might be, and what he had done.
34 Tuuta sana keessaas garri tokko waan tokko jedhanii iyyaa, garri kaan immoo waan biraa jedhanii iyyaa turan; ajajaan sunis sababii waca namaatiif waan mirkana taʼe argachuu waan dadhabeef akka Phaawulos gara qubata loltootaatti geeffamu ajaje.
And they continued to cry aloud in the multitude, some one thing, and some another: and he, being unable to know the certainty on account of the uproar, commanded that he should be led into the castle.
35 Phaawulos gulantaa ittiin gad baʼan bira geenyaan sababii goolii namootaatiif loltoonni isa baatan.
Then when he was on the threshold, it happened that he was carried by the soldiers, on account of the violence of the mob;
36 Namoonni hedduunis, “Isa ajjeesi!” jedhanii iyyaa duukaa buʼan.
for the multitude of the people were following, crying out, Take him away.
37 Phaawulos yommuu loltoonni isa fuudhanii qubata loltootaatti ol isa galchuuf jedhanitti, ajajaa sanaan, “Akka ani waa sitti himu naa eeyyamtaa?” jedhee gaafate. Ajajaan sun immoo deebisee akkana jedhe; “Ati afaan Giriik ni dubbattaa?
And Paul, being about to be led into the castle, says to the chiliarch, Is it lawful for me to say something to thee? And he said, Do you speak Greek?
38 Ati namicha biyya Gibxi kan dhiʼeenya kana goolii kaasee shororkeessitoota 4,000 fudhatee gammoojjiitti gale sana mitii?”
Are you not that Egyptian who before these days rising up and leading away into the desert four hundred men of daggers?
39 Phaawulosis, “Ani Yihuudii Xarsees magaalaa beekamtuu Kiilqiyaa keessaa sanaa ti. Maaloo, akka ani namoota kanatti dubbadhu naa eeyyami” jedhee deebise.
But Paul said, I am indeed a Jewish man, a Tarsean, a citizen of Cilicia, no mean city: but, I pray you, permit me to speak to the people.
40 Phaawulos akkuma eeyyama ajajaa sanaa argateen gulantaa sana irra dhaabatee akka namoonni calʼisaniif harkaan mallattoo kenne; yommuu isaan hundinuu calʼisanitti immoo afaan Araamaayikiitiin akkana jedheen.
And he permitting, Paul, standing on the threshold, beckoned with his hand to the people: and there being great silence, he spoke to them in the Hebrew tongue, saying:
