1 Namni Anaaniyaas jedhamu tokko niitii isaa Safiiraa wajjin lafa gurgurate.
And a certain man, Ananias by name, with Sapphira his wife, sold an estate
2 Innis utuma niitiin isaa beektuu horii sana irraa gartokko ofii isaatii hambifatee kan hafe immoo geessee miilla ergamootaa bira kaaʼe.
and kept back a part from the price, his wife knowing it along with him; and having brought a certain part, laid it at the feet of the apostles.
3 Phexros garuu akkana jedhe; “Yaa Anaaniyaas, akka ati Hafuura Qulqulluu sobdee horii lafa gurgurattee argate irraa gartokko hambifattuuf seexanni maaliif akkas garaa kee guute?
But Peter said, Ananias, wherefore hath Satan filled thy heart to lie to the Holy Ghost, and keep back a part from the price of the land?
4 Lafti sun utuu hin gurguramin iyyuu kan kee ture mitii? Erga gurguramee booddees horiin sun harkuma kee hin turree? Yoos akka ati waan akkasii gootu maalitu si yaachise? Ati Waaqa sobde malee nama hin sobne.”
Remaining with thee did it not belong to thee; and having been sold, was it not still in thy control? why hast thou placed this thing in thy heart? thou hast not lied to men, but to God.
5 Anaaniyaasis yommuu waan kana dhagaʼetti kufee duʼe. Warri waan kana dhagaʼan hundinuus sodaa guddaan qabaman.
And Ananias hearing these words, having fallen down, breathed out his soul. And great fear came on all hearing;
6 Dargaggoonnis dhufanii, reeffa isaa kafanan; gad baasaniis isa awwaalan.
and the young men, rising up, took him, and having carried him out, buried him.
7 Gara saʼaatii sadii booddee niitiin isaa utuu waan taʼe hin beekin dhuftee ol seente.
And an interval of about three hours supervened, and his wife, not having known what had taken place, came in.
8 Phexrosis, “Gatiin isin Anaaniyaas wajjin lafa gurgurattan sana irraa argattan kanumaa? Mee natti himi!” jedhee ishee gaafate. Isheenis, “Eeyyee kanuma” jette.
And Peter responded to her, Tell me if you sold the place for so much? And she said; Yes, for so much.
9 Phexrosis, “Isin akkam Hafuura Gooftaa qoruuf walii galuu dandeessan? Ilaa! miilli warra dhirsa kee awwaalanii balbala dura gaʼeera; sis gad si baasu” jedheen.
And Peter said to her; Why has it been agreed with you to tempt the Spirit of the Lord? behold, the feet of those having buried thy husband are at the door, and they will carry thee out.
10 Isheenis yeruma sana miilla isaa jalatti lafa dhooftee duute; dargaggoonni sunis ol seenanii reeffa ishee argan; gad baasaniis dhirsa ishee biratti ishee awwaalan.
And immediately she fell at his feet, and breathed out her soul; and the young men having come in found her dead, and having carried her out, buried her with her husband.
11 Waldaan kiristaanaa hundi, warri waan kana dhagaʼan hundinuus sodaa guddaan qabaman.
And great fear came on all the church, and on all those hearing these things.
12 Ergamoonnis mallattoo fi dinqii baayʼee uummata gidduutti hojjetan. Amantoonni hundinuus iddoo gardaafoo Solomoon jedhamutti walitti qabamu turan.
And many miracles and wonders were wrought by the hands of the apostles among the people. And they were all of one accord in Solomon's porch.
13 Warra hafan keessaa namni tokko iyyuu isaanitti dabalamuuf ija hin jabaanne, uummanni garuu akka malee isaan ulfeessa ture.
And no one of the rest dared to attach himself to them; but the people were magnifying them;
14 Hamma duraa caalaas dhiironnii fi dubartoonni hedduun Gooftaatti amananii amantootatti dabalaman.
but believers were the more added to the Lord, a multitude both of men and women,
15 Kanaafis akka yommuu Phexros achiin darbutti gaaddiddumti isaa iyyuu isaan keessaa tokko tokko irra buʼuuf jedhanii namoonni dhukkubsattoota karaatti baasanii siree fi itillee irra ciciibsan.
so that they were carrying the sick into the streets, and placing them on couches and beds, in order that the shadow of Peter passing along might cast a shadow on some one of them.
16 Namoonnis magaalaawwan naannoo Yerusaalem jiran keessaa warra dhukkubsatanii fi warra hafuura xuraaʼaan dhiphatan fidanii achitti wal gaʼan; warri geeffaman hundinuus ni fayyifaman.
Then a multitude, of the cities around about Jerusalem, came together, carrying their sick and those tormented by unclean spirits, who were all being healed.
17 Lubni ol aanaanii fi miseensonni garee Saduuqotaa warri isa wajjin turan hundinuu hinaaffaan guutaman.
And the high priest and all those being with him, being the sect of the Sadducees, were filled with rage,
18 Isaanis ergamoota qabanii mana hidhaa uummataa keessa buusan.
and laid hands on the apostles, and placed them in the public prison.
19 Garuu ergamaan Gooftaa tokko halkaniin balbala mana hidhaa banee gad isaan baase.
And the angel of the Lord, having opened the doors of the prison during the night, and leading them out said,
20 Innis, “Dhaqaa mana qulqullummaa keessa dhadhaabadhaatii, dubbii jireenya haaraa kana hunda isaa uummatatti himaa” jedheen.
Go, and standing in the temple, speak to the people all the words of this life.
21 Isaanis akkuma isaanitti himame sanatti ganama barii mana qulqullummaa seenanii uummata barsiisuu jalqaban. Lubni ol aanaanii fi warri isa wajjin turan yommuu achi gaʼanitti waldaa Yihuudootaatii fi yaaʼii maanguddoota Israaʼel walitti waaman; akka ergamoota sana fidaniifis mana hidhaatti namoota ergan.
And hearing, they came into the temple at daydawn, and were teaching. And the high priest coming and those with him, called together the sanhedrim and all the eldership of the children of Israel, and sent to the prison to bring them.
22 Qondaaltonni ergaman sun garuu yommuu mana hidhaa gaʼanitti jara achitti hin arganne; kanaafis deebiʼanii,
And the officers arriving found them not in the prison; and having returned, reported,
23 “Mana hidhaa sana isaa sirriitti qollofamee jiru, eegdotas, utuu isaan balbala dura dhaabatanii jiranuu argine; yeroo bannetti garuu nama tokko illee achi keessatti hin arganne” jedhan.
saying; We found the prison closed with all safety, and the guards standing at the doors, and having opened, we found no one within.
24 Ajajaan eegdota mana qulqullummaatii fi luboonni hangafoonni yommuu oduu kana dhagaʼanitti dinqifachuudhaan waan jedhan wallaalanii, “Maaltu dhalate immoo?” jedhan.
And when the captain of the temple, and the chief priests heard these words, they were at a loss concerning them, what this might be.
25 Yommus namichi tokko dhufee, “Jarri isin mana hidhaatti galchitan sun kunoo, mana qulqullummaa keessa dhadhaabatanii uummata barsiisaa jiru!” jedhe.
And a certain one coming announced to them, Behold, the men whom you placed in the prison are standing in the temple and teaching the people.
26 Kana irratti ajajaan sun qondaaltota wajjin dhaqee ergamoota sana fide; isaanis sababii uummanni dhagaan nu tuma jedhanii sodaataniif humnatti hin fayyadamne.
Then the captain along with the officers, having gone away, led them, not with violence, for they feared the people lest they might be stoned.
27 Ergamootas fidanii, akka lubni ol aanaan isaan qoruuf fuula yaaʼii Yihuudootaa dura isaan dhadhaabachiisan.
And leading them, they placed them in the council, and the chief priests asked them, saying,
28 Lubichi ol aanaanis, “Nu akka isin maqaa kanaan hin barsiisne jabeessinee isin ajajnee turre; isin garuu barsiisa keessaniin Yerusaalem guuttaniirtu; akka nu itti gaafatamtoota dhiiga namicha kanaa taanu nu gochuu barbaaddu” jedhe.
With commandment we commanded you not to teach in this name; and behold, you have filled Jerusalem with your teaching; and you are determined to bring upon us the blood of this man.
29 Phexrosii fi ergamoonni kaan garuu akkana jedhanii deebisan; “Nu namaaf ajajamuu irra Waaqaaf ajajamuu qabna!
But Peter and the apostles responding said, It behooves us to obey God rather than men.
30 Yesuus isa isin fannoo irratti fanniftanii ajjeeftan sana Waaqni abbootii keenyaa warra duʼan keessaa isa kaaseera.
The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom you have slain, hanging him on the wood;
31 Waaqni akka inni Israaʼeliif qalbii jijjiirrachuu fi dhiifama cubbuu kennuuf jedhee bulchaa fi Fayyisaa godhee mirga ofiitti ol ol isa qabe.
Him hath God exalted at His own right hand, a Prince and a Savior, to give repentance and remission of sins to Israel.
32 Nu dhuga baatota waan kanaa ti; akkasumas Hafuurri Qulqulluun Waaqni warra isaaf ajajamaniif kenne sun dhuga baʼaa waan kanaa ti.”
And we are witnesses of these words, and the Holy Ghost, whom God has given to those who obey him.
33 Isaanis yommuu waan kana dhagaʼanitti akka malee aariidhaan guggubatanii ergamoota ajjeesuuf mariʼatan.
And hearing, they were cut through and were minded to kill them.
34 Fariisichi Gamaaliyaal jedhamu, barsiisaan seeraa kan namni hundi kabaju tokko garuu waldaa Yihuudootaa keessa dhaabatee akka ergamoonni sun yeroof gad baafaman ajaje.
But a certain Pharisee, Gamaliel by name, a teacher of the law, honorable to all the people, rising in the sanhedrim command them to put the men out for a short time,
35 Innis akkana isaaniin jedhe; “Yaa namoota Israaʼel, waan jara kana gochuuf deemtan keessatti of eeggadhaa.
and he said to them; Israelitish men, take heed to yourselves in reference to these men what you are about to do.
36 Bara dheeraan dura Toyidaas akka waan nama guddaa taʼeetti of ilaalee kaanaan namoonni gara dhibba afuriitti hedaman isa faana buʼan; inni ni ajjeefame; duuka buutonni isaa ni bittinneeffaman; akkasumaan badanis.
For before these days Theudas arose, saying that he was somebody, to whom a number of men, about four hundred, adhered, who were slain, and all, so many as confided in him, were dispersed, and came to nothing.
37 Namicha kana booddee immoo Yihuudaan, namni Galiilaa bara lakkoobsa sabaa keessa kaʼee nama baayʼee ofitti kutate; innis ni ajjeefame; warri isa faana buʼanis ni bittinnaaʼan.
After him Judas the Galilean arose, in the days of the enrollment, and led the people after him; he also perished, and all, so many as confided in him, were scattered abroad.
38 Kanaafuu dubbii kana keessatti ani isinittin hima; namoota kana gad dhiisaa! Haa deemani! Mariin isaanii yookaan hojiin isaanii kun yoo waan nama irraa dhufe taʼe ni bada.
And I now say this to you: Stand aloof from these men, and let them alone; for if this counsel or this work be of men, it will come to naught;
39 Yoo waan Waaqa irraa dhufe taʼe garuu jara kana dhowwuu hin dandeessan; isin mataan keessan iyyuu akka utuu Waaqaan wal loltanuu hin argamne of eeggadhaa!”
but if it be of God, you will not be able to destroy them, lest perchance you may also be found fighting against God.
40 Isaanis gorsa isaa fudhatan; ergamoota sanas ol waamanii garafan; akka isaan maqaa Yesuusiitiin waa hin dubbannes ajajanii gad isaan dhiisan.
And they obeyed him, and having called the apostles, beating them, they commanded them not to speak in the name of Jesus, and sent them away.
41 Ergamoonnis akka maqaa sanaaf jedhanii qaanaʼaniif waan gaʼumsa argataniif akka malee gammadaa fuula waldaa duraa deeman.
Then they departed from the face of the sanhedrim, rejoicing indeed, because they were counted worthy to suffer dishonor for the sake of his name.
42 Isaanis guyyuma guyyaan mana qulqullummaatti, mana namaattis utuu gargar hin kutin akka Yesuus Kiristoos taʼe barsiisaa, lallabaas turan.
And all day in the temple, and from house to house, they ceased not teaching and preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ.
