1 Utuu Phexrosii fi Yohannis namootatti dubbachaa jiranuu, luboonni, ajajaan eegdota mana qulqullummaatii fi Saduuqonni isaanitti dhufan.
And while they were talking to the people, the priests and the captain of the Temple and the Sadducees came up to them,
2 Sababii ergamoonni sun namoota barsiisanii duʼaa kaʼuu karaa Yesuusiitiin argamu labsaniifis akka malee aaran.
Being greatly troubled because they were teaching the people and preaching Jesus as an example of the coming back from the dead.
3 Isaanis Phexrosii fi Yohannisin qabanii hamma guyyaa itti aanuutti mana hidhaatti isaan galchan; galgalaaʼee tureetii.
And they took them and put them in prison till the morning, for it was now evening.
4 Warra dubbicha dhagaʼan keessaas baayʼeetu amane; baayʼinni warra amanees gara kuma shaniitti ol kaʼe.
But a number of those who gave hearing to the word had faith; and they were now about five thousand.
5 Guyyaa itti aanuttis bulchitoonni, maanguddoonnii fi barsiistonni seeraa Yerusaalemitti wal gaʼan.
And on the day after, the rulers and those in authority and the scribes came together in Jerusalem;
6 Haannaas lubichi ol aanaan, isa wajjin immoo Qayyaaffaan, Yohannis, Iskindiroosii fi namoonni maatii lubicha ol aanaa taʼan kaan hundi achi turan.
And Annas, the high priest, was there, and Caiaphas and John and Alexander, and all the relations of the high priest.
7 Isaanis Phexrosii fi Yohannisin gidduu isaanii dhaabanii, “Isin humna maaliitiin yookaan maqaa eenyuutiin waan kana gootan?” jedhanii gaafachuu jalqaban.
Then sending for Peter and John, they said, By what power and in whose name have you done this?
8 Phexrosis Hafuura Qulqulluudhaan guutamee akkana isaaniin jedhe; “Isin yaa bulchitootaa fi maanguddoota uummataa!
Then Peter, being full of the Holy Spirit, said to them, O you rulers of the people and men of authority,
9 Harʼa waaʼee waan gaarii nama naafa tokkoof godhameetii fi akka inni itti fayyifame yoo nu gaafattan,
If we are questioned today about a good work done to a man who was ill, as to how he has been made well,
10 isinii fi namoonni Israaʼel hundinuu waan kana beekaa; namichi kun maqaa Yesuus Kiristoos nama Naazreeti kan isin fanniftanii Waaqni immoo warra duʼan keessaa isa kaase sanaatiin fayyee fuula keessan dura dhaabata.
Take note, all of you, and all the people of Israel, that in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you put to death on the cross, whom God gave back from the dead, even through him is this man now before you completely well.
11 Yesuusis, “‘Dhagaa isin ijaartonni tuffattan kan dhagaa golee taʼee dha.’
He is the stone which you builders had no use for, but which has been made the chief stone of the building.
12 Fayyinni nama biraa tokko irraa iyyuu hin argamu; maqaan nu ittiin fayyifamnu kan samii gaditti namootaaf kenname biraa tokko iyyuu hin jiruutii.”
And in no other is there salvation: for there is no other name under heaven, given among men, through which we may have salvation.
13 Namoonni sunis yommuu ija jabina Phexrosii fi Yohannis arganii akka isaan warra barumsa hin qabnee fi warra hin beekamne taʼan hubatanitti ni dinqisiifatan; akka isaan Yesuus wajjin turanis ni qalbeeffatan.
Now when they saw that Peter and John were without fear, though they were men of no education or learning, they were greatly surprised; and they took note of them that they had been with Jesus.
14 Garuu namicha fayyifame sana isaa isaanuma wajjin achi dhaabatu arganii waan dubbatan dhaban.
And, seeing that the man who had been made well was there with them, they were not able to say anything against it.
15 Kanaaf akka isaan waldaa keessaa gad baʼan ajajanii wajjin mariʼachuu jalqaban.
But when they had given them orders to go out of the Sanhedrin, they had a discussion among themselves,
16 Akkanas jedhan; “Jara kana maal haa goonu? Akka isaan dinqii guddaa hojjetan namni Yerusaalem keessa jiraatu hundi ni beeka; nus waan kana waakkachuu hin dandeenyu.
Saying, What are we to do with these men? for certainly it is clear to all who are living in Jerusalem that a most important sign has been done by them, and it is not possible to say that it is not so.
17 Garuu akka wanni kun hammana caalaa uummata keessa hin babalʼanneef nu akka jarri kun siʼachi maqaa kanaan nama tokkotti illee hin dubbanne isaan of eeggachiisuu qabna.”
But so that it may not go farther among the people, let us put them in fear of punishment if they say anything in future in this name.
18 Isaanis jara waamanii akka isaan gonkumaa maqaa Yesuusiitiin hin dubbanne yookaan hin barsiifne isaan ajajan.
And they sent for them, and gave them orders not to make statements or give teaching in the name of Jesus.
19 Phexrosii fi Yohannis garuu deebisanii akkana jedhan; “Qooda Waaqaa isiniif ajajamuun fuula Waaqaa duratti akka qajeelaa taʼee fi akka hin taʼin mee isinuu ilaalaa!
But Peter and John in answer said to them, It is for you to say if it is right in the eyes of God to give attention to you more than to God:
20 Nu waan arginee fi waan dhageenye dubbachuu dhiisuu hin dandeenyuutii.”
For it is not possible for us to keep from saying what we have seen and have knowledge of.
21 Isaanis erga ittuma fufanii doorsisanii booddee jara gad dhiisan. Waan namoonni sababii waan hojjetame sanaatiif Waaqa galateeffachaa turaniifis akka itti jara adaban murteeffachuu hin dandeenye.
And when they had said more sharp words to them, they let them go, not seeing what punishment they might give them, because of the people; for all men were giving praise to God for what had taken place.
22 Umuriin namicha karaa dinqiitiin fayyifame sanaa waggaa afurtamaa ol tureetii.
For the man on whom this act of power was done was more than forty years old.
23 Phexrosii fi Yohannis yeroo gad dhiifamanitti gara saba isaanii dhaqanii waan luboonni hangafoonnii fi maanguddoonni jedhaniin hundumaa isaanitti himan.
And when they had been made free, they came back to their friends, and gave an account of all the things which the chief priests and the authorities had said to them.
24 Isaanis yommuu waan kana dhagaʼanitti kadhannaadhaan sagalee isaanii tokkummaan Waaqatti ol fuudhanii akkana jedhan; “Yaa Gooftaa Waan Hundaa Olii, situ samii, lafa, galaanaa fi waan isaan keessa jiru hunda uume.
And hearing it, they all, with one mind, made prayer to God and said, O Lord, maker of heaven and earth and the sea and all things in them:
25 Ati Hafuura Qulqulluun karaa afaan tajaajilaa kee abbaa keenya Daawitiitiin akkana jettee dubbatteerta; “‘Namoonni maaliif akkanumaan mariʼatu? Saboonnis maaliif waan faayidaa hin qabne yaadu?
Who has said, by the Holy Spirit, through the mouth of our father David your servant, Why are the nations so violently moved, and why are the thoughts of the people so foolish?
26 Mootonni lafaa kaʼanii, bulchitoonnis Gooftichaa fi dibamaa isaatiin mormuuf walitti qabaman.’
The kings of the earth were lifted up, the rulers came together, against the Lord, and against his Christ:
27 Dhugumaan Heroodisii fi Phonxoos Phiilaaxoos Namoota Ormaatii fi uummata Israaʼel wajjin hojjetaa kee isa qulqulluu, Yesuus isa ati dibdetti mariʼachuuf jedhanii magaalaa kana keessatti walitti qabaman.
For, truly, in this town, against your holy servant, Jesus, who was marked out by you as Christ, Herod, and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles and the people of Israel, came together,
28 Isaanis waanuma humnii fi fedhiin kee akka wanni kun taʼuuf duraan dursanii murteessan sana hojjetan.
To do that which had been fixed before by your hand and your purpose.
29 Yaa Gooftaa, egaa doorsisa isaanii ilaaliitii akka garboonni kee ija jabinaan dubbii kee dubbataniif dandeettii kenniif.
And now, Lord, take note of their cruel words, and give your servants power to be preachers of your word without fear,
30 Nama fayyisuu fi maqaa tajaajilaa kee qulqullichaa, maqaa Yesuusiitiin mallattoo fi dinqii hojjechuuf harka kee diriirfadhu.”
While your hand is stretched out to do works of mercy; so that signs and wonders may be done through the name of your holy servant Jesus.
31 Erga isaan Waaqa kadhatanii booddee lafti isaan itti wal gaʼan sun ni sosochoote; isaan hundinuus hafuura qulqulluudhaan guutamanii ija jabinaan dubbii Waaqaa dubbatan.
And when their prayer was ended, the place where they were was violently moved, and they all became full of the Holy Spirit, preaching the word of God without fear.
32 Amantoonni hundinuus garaa tokkoo fi yaada tokko qabu turan; waan qaban hundas walumaan qoodachaa turan malee namni tokko iyyuu akka waan qabeenyi inni qabu kam iyyuu kan mataa isaa qofa taʼeetti hin lakkoofne.
And all those who were of the faith were one in heart and soul: and not one of them said that any of the things which he had was his property only; but they had all things in common.
33 Ergamoonnis duʼaa kaʼuu Gooftaa Yesuus humna guddaadhaan dhugaa baʼaa turan; ayyaanni guddaanis hunduma isaanii irra ture.
And with great power the Apostles gave witness of the coming back of the Lord Jesus from the dead; and grace was on them all.
34 Rakkataan tokko iyyuu isaan gidduu hin turre. Warri lafa yookaan mana qaban hundinuu gurguranii maallaqa fidanii,
And no one among them was in need; for everyone who had land or houses, exchanging them for money, took the price of them,
35 miilla ergamootaa bira kaaʼu turan; maallaqni sunis nama rakkina qabu kamiif iyyuu ni qoodama ture.
And put it at the feet of the Apostles for distribution to everyone as he had need.
36 Yoosef namni gosa Lewwii kan Qophiroositti dhalate, inni ergamoonni Barnaabaas jedhaniin tokkos achi ture. Barnaabaas jechuun “ilma jajjabinaa” jechuu dha.
And Joseph, who was given by the Apostles the name of Barnabas (the sense of which is, Son of comfort), a Levite and a man of Cyprus by birth,
37 Innis lafa qotiisaa ofii isaa gurguree horii isaa fidee miilla ergamootaa bira kaaʼe.
Having a field, got money for it and put the money at the feet of the Apostles.
