Maatewos 4
1 Ergasii Yesuus akka diiyaabiloosiin qoramuuf Hafuuraan gammoojjiitti geeffame.
Then Jesus was led by the spirit into the desert, to be tempted by the devil.
2 Innis erga guyyaa afurtamaa fi halkan afurtama soomee booddee ni beelaʼe.
And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, afterwards he was hungry.
3 Inni nama qoru sun gara isaa dhufee, “Ati yoo Ilma Waaqaa taate, akka dhagoonni kunneen buddeena taʼan ajaji” jedheen.
And the tempter coming said to him: If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread.
4 Yesuus immoo deebisee, “‘Namni dubbii afaan Waaqayyootii baʼu hundaan malee buddeena qofaan hin jiraatu’jedhamee barreeffameera” jedheen.
Who answered and said: It is written, Not in bread alone doth man live, but in every word that proceedeth from the mouth of God.
5 Ergasii diiyaabiloos gara magaalaa qulqulluutti isa geessee fiixee mana qulqullummaa irra dhaabachiise.
Then the devil took him up into the holy city, and set him upon the pinnacle of the temple,
6 Akkanas jedheen; “Ati yoo Ilma Waaqaa taate, gad of darbadhu. Akkana jedhamee barreeffameeraatii: “‘Inni ergamoota isaa siif ni ajaja; isaanis akka ati miilla keetiin dhagaatti hin buuneef, harka isaaniitiin ol si fuudhu.’”
And said to him: If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down, for it is written: That he hath given his angels charge over thee, and in their hands shall they bear thee up, lest perhaps thou dash thy foot against a stone.
7 Yesuus immoo deebisee, “‘Waaqa kee Goofticha hin qorin’jedhamee barreeffameera” jedheen.
Jesus said to him: It is written again: Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.
8 Ammas diiyaabiloos tulluu akka malee ol dheeraa tokkotti ol isa baasee mootummoota addunyaa hundaa fi ulfina isaanii isatti argisiise.
Again the devil took him up into a very high mountain, and shewed him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them,
9 Akkanas jedheen; “Yoo ati gad jettee naaf sagadde, waan kana hundumaa siifin kenna.”
And said to him: All these will I give thee, if falling down thou wilt adore me.
10 Yesuusis, “Seexana nana, narraa fagaadhu! ‘Waaqa kee Gooftichaaf sagadi; isuma qofa tajaajili’jedhamee barreeffameeraatii” jedheen.
Then Jesus saith to him: Begone, Satan: for it is written, The Lord thy God shalt thou adore, and him only shalt thou serve.
11 Diiyaabiloosis isa dhiisee deeme; ergamoonni immoo dhufanii isa tajaajilan.
Then the devil left him; and behold angels came and ministered to him.
12 Yesuus yommuu akka Yohannis mana hidhaatti galfame dhagaʼetti Galiilaatti deebiʼe.
And when Jesus had heard that John was delivered up, he retired into Galilee:
13 Innis Naazreetii baʼee gara Qifirnaahom ishee biyya Zebuuloonii fi Niftaalem keessatti qarqara galaanaatti argamtu sanaa dhaqee achi jiraate;
And leaving the city Nazareth, he came and dwelt in Capharnaum on the sea coast, in the borders of Zabulon and Nephthalim;
14 kunis akka dubbiin karaa Isaayyaas raajichaatiin dubbatame sun raawwatamuuf taʼe; dubbichis akkana jedha:
That it might be fulfilled which was said by Isaias the prophet:
15 “Biyyi Zebuuloonii fi biyyi Niftaalem kanneen Yordaanos gama, qarqara Daandii Galaanaa irra jiran, Galiilaan Namoota Ormaas,
Land of Zabulon and land of Nephthalim, the way of the sea beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles:
16 sabni dukkana keessa jiraatu, ifa guddaa argeera; warra biyya gaaddidduu duʼaa keessa jiraataniifis, ifni baʼeera.”
The people that sat in darkness, hath seen great light: and to them that sat in the region of the shadow of death, light is sprung up.
17 Yesuus yeroo sanaa jalqabee, “Mootummaan samii dhiʼaateeraatii qalbii jijjiirradhaa” jedhee lallabuutti kaʼe.
From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say: Do penance, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
18 Yesuus utuu qarqara Galaana Galiilaa irra deemaa jiruu, obboloota lama jechuunis Simoon isa Phexros jedhamuu fi obboleessa isaa Indiriiyaasin arge. Isaanis qurxummii qabdoota waan taʼaniif kiyyoo galaanatti darbachaa turan.
And Jesus walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brethren, Simon who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea (for they were fishers).
19 Yesuusis, “Kottaa, na duukaa buʼaa; anis akka isin qabduu namootaa taataniif isin nan erga” jedheen.
And he saith to them: Come ye after me, and I will make you to be fishers of men.
20 Isaanis yommusuma kiyyoo isaanii dhiisanii isa duukaa buʼan.
And they immediately leaving their nets, followed him.
21 Innis utuu achii kaʼee deemuu obboloota gara biraa lama jechuunis Yaaqoob ilma Zabdewoosii fi obboleessa isaa Yohannisin arge. Isaanis abbaa isaanii Zabdewoos wajjin kiyyoo isaanii qopheeffachaa bidiruu keessa turan. Yesuusis isaan waame;
And going on from thence, he saw other two brethren, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in a ship with Zebedee their father, mending their nets: and he called them.
22 isaanis yommusuma bidiruu sanaa fi abbaa isaanii dhiisanii isa duukaa buʼan.
And they forthwith left their nets and father, and followed him.
23 Yesuus manneen sagadaa isaanii keessatti barsiisaa, wangeela mootummaa lallabaa, dhibee fi dhukkuba saba keessa jiru hunda fayyisaa Galiilaa guutuu keessa deeme.
And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom: and healing all manner of sickness and every infirmity, among the people.
24 Oduun waaʼee isaas Sooriyaa hunda keessatti dhagaʼame; namoonnis warra dhukkuba garaa garaatiin qabaman, warra dhukkuba hamaan dhiphatan, warra hafuura hamaan qabaman, warra dhukkuba gaggabdootiin dhiphatanii fi warra dhagni irratti duʼe isatti fidan; innis isaan fayyise.
And his fame went throughout all Syria, and they presented to him all sick people that were taken with divers diseases and torments, and such as were possessed by devils, and lunatics, and those that had palsy, and he cured them:
25 Tuunni namoota baayʼees Galiilaadhaa, Magaalaa Kurnanii, Yerusaalemii, Yihuudaa fi biyya Yordaanos gamaatii isa duukaa buʼe.
And much people followed him from Galilee, and from Decapolis, and from Jerusalem, and from Judea, and from beyond the Jordan.
