Falimaha Rasuullada 21
1 Oo waxaa dhacday, markaannu iyagii ka tagnay oo dhoofnay dabadeed, inaannu toos u nimid Koos, maalintii dambena waxaannu nimid Rodos, meeshaasna waxaannu ka aadnay Batara;
[After] we said goodbye to the elders [from Ephesus], we [got on the ship and] sailed to Cos [Island, where the ship stopped for the night]. The next day we sailed from Cos to Rhodes [Island, where the ship stopped again. The day after] that we sailed to Patara [town, where the ship stopped. This was on Patara Island].
2 oo markaannu helnay doonni Foynike u sii dhaafaysa ayaannu fuulnay oo ku dhoofnay.
[At Patara we left that ship, and someone told us that] there was a ship that would be going to Phoenicia [region. So] we got on that ship, and it left.
3 Oo kolkii Qubrus noo muuqatay, ayaannu dhinaca bidixda ka marnay oo u dhoofnay Suuriya, oo waxaannu ku degnay Turos, maxaa yeelay, meeshaasaa doonnidu shixnaddeedii ku dejin lahayd.
[We sailed until] we could see Cyprus [Island]. We passed to the south of the island and continued sailing until we arrived at [Phoenicia region, in] Syria [province]. We arrived at Tyre [city. The ship was going to stay there several days, because its workers] had to unload the cargo.
4 Oo markaannu xertii ka helnay, ayaannu meeshaas joognay toddoba maalmood; oo kuwaasu waxay Ruuxa ugu sheegeen Bawlos inaanu Yeruusaalem cag saarin.
[Someone told us] where the believers in Tyre lived, so we [(exc) went and] stayed with them for seven days. Because [God’s] Spirit revealed to them ([that people would cause Paul to suffer/Paul would suffer]) [in Jerusalem], they told Paul that he should not go there.
5 Oo markii maalmahaasu noo dhammaadeen ayaannu ka tagnay oo sii soconnay; oo dhammaantood, iyaga iyo dumarkoodii iyo carruurtoodiiba, ayay na sii ambabbixiyeen ilaa magaalada dibaddeeda; markaasaannu xeebta ku jilba joogsannay oo tukannay,
But when it was time [for the ship to leave again], we [prepared to] continue going [to Jerusalem]. When we left [Tyre], all the believers, including their wives and children, went with us [to the edge of the sea]. We all knelt down there on the sand/shore and prayed.
6 oo isnabadgelyaynay; kolkaasaannu doonnidii fuulnay, iyaguse guryahoodii bay ku noqdeen.
After we all said goodbye, Paul and we [his companions] got on the ship, and the [other] believers returned to their own homes.
7 Oo markii dhoofkii aannu Turos ka soo dhoofnay noo dhammaaday, waxaannu nimid Botolemays; markaasaannu walaalihii soo salaannay oo maalin la joognay iyagii.
After we [(exc)] left Tyre, we continued on [that ship] to Ptolemais [city]. There were believers there, and we greeted them and stayed with them that night.
8 Maalintii dambena waannu ka tagnay, oo waxaannu nimid Kaysariya; markaasaannu galnay gurigii Filibos oo ahaa kii wax wacdiyi jiray oo toddobadii ka mid ahaa, oo isagaannu la joognay.
The next day we left [Ptolemais] and sailed to Caesarea [city], where we stayed in the home of Philip, who [spent his days] telling others how to become disciples of Jesus. He was one of the seven [men whom the believers in Jerusalem had chosen to care for the widows].
9 Ninkanu wuxuu lahaa afar gabdhood oo bikrado ah oo wax sheegi jiray.
He had four daughters who were not married. Each of them [frequently] spoke messages that the Holy Spirit had revealed to them.
10 Kolkaannu maalmo badan meeshaas joognay, waxaa Yahuudiya ka yimid nebi la odhan jiray Agabos.
After [we(exc) had been in Philip’s house for] several days, a believer whose name was Agabus came down from Judea [district] and arrived [in Caesarea]. He [frequently] spoke messages that the Holy Spirit had told him.
11 Oo markuu noo yimid ayuu qaatay Bawlos dhex-xidhkiisii oo ku xidhxidhay gacmihiisii iyo cagihiisii isagoo leh, Ruuxa Quduuska ahu sidaasuu leeyahay, Yuhuudda Yeruusaalem joogtaa sidaasay u xidhi doonaan ninka dhex-xidhkan leh, oo waxay isagii u gacangelin doonaan dadka aan Yuhuudda ahayn.
Coming over to where we were, he took off Paul’s belt. Then he tied his own feet and hands with it and said, “The Holy Spirit says, ‘The Jewish [leaders] [SYN] in Jerusalem will tie up [the hands and feet of] the owner of this belt, like this, and they will hand him over to non-Jewish people [as a prisoner].’”
12 Annaga iyo kuwii meeshaas joogayba, markaannu waxyaalahaas maqalnay, waxaannu isagii ka barinnay inuusan Yeruusaalem tegin.
When [the rest of] us heard that, we and [other] believers there repeatedly pled with Paul, “Please do not go up to Jerusalem!”
13 Markaasaa Bawlos u jawaabay oo ku yidhi, Maxaad samaynaysaan oo aad u ooyaysaan oo ii qalbi jebinaysaan? Maxaa yeelay, diyaar uma ihi inaan xidhnaado oo keliya, laakiinse waxaan u diyaarahay inaan Yeruusaalem ku dhinto magaca Rabbi Ciise aawadiis.
But Paul replied, “(Please stop crying and trying to discourage me [IDM] [from going!]/Why are you crying and trying to discourage me [IDM] [from going]?) [RHQ] I am willing to be put {[for people] to put me} in prison and also to be killed {[for them] to kill me} in Jerusalem because I [serve] [MTY] the Lord Jesus.”
14 Oo markii la yeelsiin waayay, waannu iska daynay, oo waxaannu nidhi, Rabbiga doonistiisu ha noqoto.
When [we(exc) realized that] he was determined [to go to Jerusalem], we did not try [any longer] to persuade him [not to go]. We said, “May (the Lord [God] do what he wants/the Lord’s will be done)!”
15 Maalmahaas dabadeedna, alaabtayadii baannu diyaarsannay, oo waxaannu tagnay Yeruusaalem.
After those days [in Caesarea], we [(exc)] prepared [our things] and [left to] go [by land] up to Jerusalem.
16 Oo waxaa na raacay qaar ka mid ahaa xerta Kaysariya iyagoo wada mid Manasoon la odhan jiray oo reer Qubrus ahaa oo xertii hore ka mid ahaa, kaasoo aannu u hoyan lahayn.
Some of the believers from Caesarea also went with us. [On the way to Jerusalem], we stayed [one night] in the house of [a man whose name was] Mnason. He was from Cyprus [Island], and he had believed [in Jesus] when people were first beginning to hear the message [about him].
17 Markaannu Yeruusaalem nimidna walaalihii farxad bay nagu soo dhoweeyeen.
When we arrived in Jerusalem, [a group of] the believers greeted us happily.
18 Maalintii ku xigtayna Bawlos oo nala socda ayaannu waxaannu u tagnay Yacquub; waayeelladii oo dhammuna way joogeen.
The next day Paul and the rest of us went to speak with James, [who was the leader of the congregation there]. All of the [other] leaders/elders [of the congregation in Jerusalem] were also there.
19 Markuu iyagii salaamay dabadeedna, mid mid buu ugu sheegay waxyaalihii Ilaah dadka aan Yuhuudda ahayn dhexdooda kaga sameeyey shuqulkiisa.
Paul greeted them, and then he reported all of the things that God had enabled him to do among the non-Jewish people.
20 Iyaguna, kolkay taas maqleen, ayay Ilaah ammaaneen; oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen isagii, Walaalow, waad aragtaa intay yihiin kumanyaalka rumaystay oo Yuhuudda ku dhex jira; kulligoodna sharcigay ku kulul yihiin.
When they heard that, James and the other elders said, “Praise the Lord!” Then [one of] them said to Paul, “Brother/Friend, you [(sg)] know that there are very many thousands of us [(inc)] Jewish people [here] who have believed [in the Lord Jesus]. Also, you know that we [(inc)] all continue very carefully to obey the laws [that Moses gave us].
21 Iyagana waa loo sheegay wax kugu saabsan inaad Yuhuudda quruumaha ku dhex jirta bartid inay Muuse ka tagaan adigoo u sheegaya inaanay carruurtooda gudin oo aanay caadooyinka ku socon.
[But our fellow Jewish believers] have been told {have heard [people say]} that when you are among non-Jews, you tell the Jewish believers who live there that they should stop obeying [the laws] [MTY] ([of] Moses/[that] Moses [received from God]). [People say that] you tell [those Jewish believers] not to circumcise their sons and not to practice our [other] customs. [We(exc) do not believe that this is true].
22 Haddaba waa maxay? Way wada maqli doonaan inaad timid.
But our fellow [Jewish] believers will certainly hear that you have arrived, [and they will be angry with you]. So [you] need to do something [RHQ] [to show them that what they heard about you is not true].
23 Sidaas darteed waxaannu kuu sheegayno yeel. Waxaa nala jooga afar nin oo nidar galay;
So you should do what we suggest to you. There are four men among us who have strongly promised [to God] about [something].
24 kuwaas kaxee oo isla daahiri oo kharashka iyaga ka bixi inay madaxa xiirtaan; markaasay dhammaan waxay wada ogaan doonaan inaanay waxba ahayn waxyaalihii lagaa sheegay, laakiin inaad adiga qudhaadu si hagaagsan u socotid oo aad sharciga dhawrtid.
Go with these men [to the Temple] and [ritually] purify yourself along with them. Then, [when it is time for them to offer the sacrifices for that ritual], pay for what they offer [as sacrifices]. After that, they can shave their heads [to show that they have done what they promised to do. And when people see you in the courts of the Temple with those men], they will know that what they have been told {what people have told them} about you is not true. Instead, all of them will know that you obey all our Jewish laws [and rituals].
25 Laakiin wax ku saabsan dadkii aan Yuhuudda ahayn oo rumaystay ayaannu qornay, annagoo ku amrayna inay iska ilaaliyaan waxa sanamyada loo sadqeeyo, iyo dhiigga, iyo waxa la ceejiyo, iyo sinada.
As for the non-Jewish believers, [we elders here in Jerusalem have talked] about [which of our laws] they [should obey, and] we [(exc)] wrote them [a letter, telling them] what we decided. [We wrote] that they should not eat meat that people have offered as a sacrifice to any idol, [that they should not eat] blood [from animals], and that [they should not eat] meat from animals [that people have killed by] strangling [them. We also told them that] they should not have sex with someone to whom they are not married.”
26 Markaasaa Bawlos nimankii kaxeeyey, oo maalintii dambena intuu iyagii isla daahiriyey ayuu macbudka galay, isagoo caddaynaya maalmihii isdaahirinta dhammaadkoodii, ilaa intii sadqada loo sadqeeyey mid kasta oo iyagii ka mid ahaa.
So Paul [agreed to do what they asked], and the next day he took the [four] men, and together they ritually purified themselves. After that, Paul went to the Temple [courts and] told [the priest] what day they would [finish] purifying themselves [ritually] and when [they] would offer [the animals as sacrifices] for each of them.
27 Oo kolkii toddobadii maalmood u dhowayd inay dhammaadaan ayaa Yuhuuddii Aasiya ka timid isagii macbudka ku aragtay, markaasay dadkii oo dhan kiciyeen, wayna qabteen isagii,
When the seven days [for purifying themselves] were nearly finished, Paul [returned] to the Temple [courtyard]. Some Jews from Asia [province] saw him there, [and they were very angry at him]. On another day they had seen Paul [walking around] in Jerusalem with Trophimus, who was a non-Jew. Their laws did not permit non-Jews to be in the Temple, and they thought that Paul had brought Trophimus into the Temple [courtyard that day. So] they called out to many other Jews [who were in the Temple courtyard] to [help them] seize [MTY] Paul. They shouted, “Fellow Israelites, come and help [us punish this] man! This is the one who is [constantly] teaching people wherever [he goes that they] should despise the [Jewish] people. [He teaches people that they should no longer obey] the laws [of Moses] nor respect this holy [Temple]. He has even brought non-Jews here into [the court of] our Temple, causing God to consider it no longer holy!”
28 iyagoo qaylinaya oo leh, Nimankii reer binu Israa'iilow, na caawiya. Kanu waa ninka bara dadka oo dhan oo meel kasta jooga inay ka gees noqdaan dadka iyo sharciga iyo meeshan. Weliba wuxuu macbudka keenay dad Gariig ah, meeshan quduuska ahna xaaraan buu ka dhigay.
29 Maxaa yeelay, mar hore waxay magaalada kula arkeen Torofimos oo reer Efesos ahaa, kaasoo ay u maleeyeen in Bawlos macbudka keenay.
30 Markaasaa magaaladii oo dhammu kacday, dadkuna waa isku soo yaacay; kolkaasay Bawlos qabteen oo macbudka ka jiideen; oo markiiba albaabbadii waa la xidhay.
[People] throughout [MTY] the city heard that there was trouble [at the Temple courtyard], and they came running there. They grabbed Paul and dragged him outside of the Temple [area]. The gates [to the Temple courtyard were shut] {[The Temple guards] shut the doors [to the Temple courts]} immediately, [so that the people would not riot inside the Temple area].
31 Markay damceen inay isagii dilaan ayaa war u yimid sirkaalkii ka sarreeyey ciidankii in Yeruusaalem oo dhan rabshaysan tahay.
While they were trying to kill Paul, someone [ran to the fort near the Temple] and told the Roman commander that many [HYP] people [MTY] in Jerusalem were rioting [at the Temple].
32 Markaasuu wuxuu watay askar iyo kuwo boqol askari u taliya, hoos buuna u soo orday; iyaguna, markay arkeen sirkaalkii sare iyo askartii, ayay Bawlos garaacidda ka daayeen.
The commander quickly took some officers and [a large group of] soldiers and ran to [the Temple area where] the crowd was. When the crowd of people [who were yelling and beating Paul] saw the commander and the soldiers [coming], they stopped beating him.
33 Markaasaa sirkaalkii sare ku soo dhowaaday oo qabtay isagii, oo wuxuu ku amray in lagu xidho laba silsiladood; waana weyddiiyey ninkuu yahay iyo wuxuu sameeyey.
The commander came to [where Paul was and] seized him. He [commanded soldiers] to fasten a chain to [each of] Paul’s [arms]. Then he asked [the people in the crowd], “Who is this man, and what has he done?”
34 Qaar waxay ku qayliyeen wax, qaarna wax kale, dadkii badnaa dhexdiis, oo markuu runtii garan kari waayay rabshaddii aawadeed ayuu ku amray in qalcaddii la geeyo.
Some of the many people there were shouting one thing, [and] some were shouting something else. Because they continued shouting so loudly, the commander could not understand [what they were shouting. So] he [commanded] that Paul be taken {[the soldiers] to take Paul} into the barracks [so that he could question him there].
35 Oo markii Bawlos sallaankii fuulay, waxaa dhacay in askartii kor u qaadday isagii dadkii badnaa xooggooda aawadiis,
[The soldiers] led Paul to the steps [of the barracks], but many people continued to follow them, trying to kill [Paul. So the commander told] the soldiers to carry Paul [up the steps into the barracks].
36 waayo, dadkii faraha badnaa waa daba socday, iyagoo qaylinaya oo leh, Naga fogeeya.
The crowd that followed kept shouting, “Kill him! Kill him!”
37 Markay u dhowayd in Bawlos qalcaddii la keeno ayuu sirkaalkii sare ku yidhi, Ma ii suurtowdaa inaan wax ku idhaahdo? Markaasuu ku yidhi, Af Gariig ma taqaan?
As Paul was about to be taken {[the soldiers] were about to take Paul} into the barracks, he said [in Greek] to the commander, “May I speak to you?” The commander said, “(I am surprised that you can speak the Greek [language]!/Can you [(sg)] speak the Greek [language]?)” [RHQ]
38 Haddana miyaanad ahayn Masrigii maalmahan hortoodii rabshad kiciyey oo afarta kun oo nin oo dhiigqabayaal ah cidlada u kaxeeyey?
“(I [thought] that you [(sg)] were that fellow/Are you not that fellow) from Egypt [RHQ] who wanted to rebel [against the government not long ago], and who took 4,000 violent terrorists [with him] out into the desert, [so that we could not catch him]?”
39 Laakiin Bawlos wuxuu ku yidhi, Anigu waxaan ahay nin Yuhuudi ah oo reer Tarsos ah taasoo Kilikiya ku taal, oo waxaan ahay magaalo aan yarayn waddanigeed. Waxaan kaa baryayaa inaad ii fasaxdid inaan dadka la hadlo.
Paul answered, “[No, I am not!] I am a Jew. I [was born] in Tarsus, which is an important [LIT] city in Cilicia [province]. I ask that you [(sg)] let me speak to the people.”
40 Oo kolkuu fasaxayna, Bawlos isagoo sallaankii taagan, ayuu dadkii gacan u taagay; oo markii aad loo aamusay, ayuu af Cibraaniga kula hadlay iyagii, isagoo leh,
Then the commander permitted Paul [to speak. So] Paul stood on the steps and motioned with his hand [for the crowd to be quiet. And after] the people in the crowd became quiet, Paul spoke to them in [their own] Hebrew language [MTY].
