Falimaha Rasuullada 22

1 Walaalayaal iyo aabbayaalow, maqla isdaafacidda aan imminka idiin sheegayo.

MEN, brethren, and fathers, hear ye my apology which I now offer unto you.

2 Kolkay maqleen inuu af Cibraaniga kula hadlay, ayay sidii hore ka sii aamuseen. Markaasuu ku yidhi,

Then when they heard that he spoke unto them in the Hebrew tongue, they kept the more silence: and he said,

3 Waxaan ahay nin Yuhuudi ah oo ku dhashay Tarsos oo ku taal Kilikiya, laakiin magaaladan baa laygu koriyey anoo Gamalii'eel hoostiisa wax laygu baray sidii caadadii adkayd oo sharcigii awowayaasheen, anigoo Ilaah qiiro u leh sida aad dhammaantiin maanta tihiin.

I am indeed a Jewish man, born in Tarsus of Cilicia, but educated in this city at the feet of Gamaliel, instructed accurately in the law of our fathers, being zealous for God, as ye all are this day:

4 Jidkanna waan silcin jiray tan iyo dhimasho, anigoo xidhaya oo xabsiga geeynaya rag iyo dumarba.

so much so that I persecuted this way unto death, binding and delivering up to prisons both men and women.

5 Sidatan ayay iigu markhaati furayaan wadaadka sare iyo waayeelladii oo dhammuba, kuwaasoo aan warqado uga helay walaalaha, oo aan Dimishaq u sodcaalay inaan kuwa halkaas joogayna, iyagoo xidhxidhan, Yeruusaalem keeno si loo ciqaabo.

As also the high-priest will bear me witness, and all the body of elders: from whom also having received letters unto the brethren, I went unto Damascus, to bring those who were there in chains unto Jerusalem, that they might be punished.

6 Oo waxaa dhacday, intaan sodcaalayay oo Dimishaq u soo dhowaanayay, iyadoo duhur ah, in dhaqsiba iftiin weyn oo samada ka yimid hareerahayga ka iftiimay.

But as I went and drew nigh to Damascus, at noon-day, suddenly there shone a great light from heaven around me.

7 Markaasaan dhulka ku dhacay, oo waxaan maqlay cod igu leh, Sawlosow, Sawlosow, maxaad ii silcinaysaa?

And I fell to the ground, and heard a voice saying to me, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?

8 Markaasaan u jawaabay oo ku idhi, Yaad tahay, Sayidow? Markaasuu igu yidhi, Waxaan ahay Ciisaha reer Naasared oo aad silcinaysid.

And I answered, Who art thou, Lord? And he said to me, I am Jesus the Nazarean, whom thou persecutest.

9 Oo kuwii ila joogayna runtii waxay arkeen iftiinkii, laakiin ma ay maqlin kii ila hadlay codkiisii.

Now they who were with me saw the light indeed, and were terrified; but the voice of him that spake to me heard they not.

10 Markaasaan ku idhi, Maxaan sameeyaa, Rabbiyow? Kolkaasaa Rabbigu igu yidhi, Kac oo Dimishaq gal; meeshaasaana laguugu sheegi doonaa waxa ku saabsan waxyaalihii lagu amray inaad samaysid oo dhan.

Then I said, What shall I do, Lord? And the Lord said to me, Arise, go into Damascus; and there information shall be given thee of all things which are ordained for thee to do.

11 Markaan waxba arki waayay dhalaalkii iftiinka aawadiis, kuwii ila joogay ayaa gacanta igu hagay oo waxaan imid Dimishaq.

Then as I could no longer see through the dazzling brightness of that light, led by the hand of those who were with me, I came to Damascus.

12 Oo mid la odhan jiray Ananiyas, oo nin cibaadaysan ahaa sida sharcigu leeyahay, oo ahaa mid Yuhuuddii halkaas joogtay oo dhanba marag wanaagsan u furtay,

And one Ananias, a religious man according to the law, and in high repute with all the Jews dwelling there,

13 ayaa ii yimid oo iskay ag taagay isagoo igu leh, Walaal Sawlosow, araggaaga hel. Oo saacaddiiba waan arkay isagii.

came to me, and standing by me, said, Brother Saul, recover sight. And the same hour I looked up at him.

14 Markaasuu igu yidhi, Ilaaha awowayaasheen ayaa ku doortay inaad doonistiisa ogaatid, iyo inaad Kan Xaqa ah aragtid oo aad afkiisa cod ka maqashid.

And he said, The God of our fathers hath predestinated thee to know his will, and to see the Just One, and to hear a voice from his mouth.

15 Maxaa yeelay, dadka oo dhan hortiisa waxaad isaga uga markhaati furaysaa waxaad aragtay oo aad maqashay.

For thou shalt be a witness for him to all men, of the things which thou hast seen and heard.

16 Haddaba maxaad u sugaysaa? Kac ha lagu baabtiiso, oo dembiyadaada iska maydh, adoo magiciisa ku baryaya.

And now why delay? arise, to be baptised, and wash away thy sins, calling upon the name of the Lord.

17 Oo waxaa dhacday, markaan Yeruusaalem ku soo noqday dabadeed, intaan macbudka ku tukanayay, inaan riyooday,

Now it came to pass, that, when I had returned to Jerusalem, and was praying in the temple, that I was in a trance;

18 oo waxaan arkay isagoo igu leh, Degdeg, oo dhaqso Yeruusaalem uga bax; maxaa yeelay, markhaatigaad ii furaysid kaama ay aqbali doonaan.

and beheld him saying to me, Make haste, and depart quickly from Jerusalem: for they will not receive thy testimony of me.

19 Markaasaan idhi, Rabbiyow, iyaga qudhoodu way og yihiin inaan xidhxidhay oo aan sunagog walba ku garaacay kuwa ku rumaystay;

And I said, Lord, they know that I was imprisoning and scourging from synagogue to synagogue those who believe on thee:

20 oo markii la daadshay dhiigga Istefanos oo ahaa markhaatigaaga, aniguna waan ag taagnaa oo u oggolaanayay oo haynayay kuwii isagii dilay dharkoodii.

and when the blood of Stephen thy martyr was shed, I myself even stood by, and took delight in his execution, and guarded the garments of those who slew him.

21 Markaasuu igu yidhi, Tag, maxaa yeelay, waxaan kuu dirayaa meel fog inaad dadka aan Yuhuudda ahayn ugu tagtid.

And he said to me, Go: for I will send thee forth to the Gentiles afar off.

22 Wayna dhegaysteen ilaa hadalkaas; markaasay codkoodii sare u qaadeen iyagoo leh, Dhulka ka fogee ninka caynkan ah, maxaa yeelay, ma qummana inuu noolaado.

And they gave him audience to this sentence, and lifted up their voice, saying, Away with such a fellow from the earth: for it is not fit that he should live.

23 Oo markay qaylinayeen oo dharka iska xoorayeen oo siigo hawada ku tuurayeen,

So when they began raising a vast clamour, and stripping off their garments, and casting dust into the air,

24 ayaa sirkaalkii sare wuxuu amray in isagii qalcaddii la soo geliyo, oo wuxuu u sheegay in karbaash lagu imtixaamo si uu ku ogaado sababtii ay sidaas ugu qaylinayeen isagii.

the military tribune commanded him to be brought into the fortress, ordering that he should be put to the question by scourging; that he might know for what cause they clamoured so loudly against him.

25 Oo markay suumanka ku xidheen dabadeed ayaa Bawlos wuxuu ku yidhi boqol-u-taliyihii oo ag taagnaa, Ma qaynuun baa inaad karbaashtaan nin reer Rooma ah oo aan la xukumin?

So as they were tying him up for the thongs, Paul said to the centurion standing by him, Is it lawful for you to scourge a man who is a Roman citizen, and uncondemned?

26 Markii boqol-u-taliyihii taas maqlayna, wuxuu u tegey sirkaalkii sare oo u sheegay, isagoo leh, Maxaad samaynaysaa? Waayo, ninkanu waa nin reer Rooma ah.

And when the centurion heard this, he came and told the military tribune, saying, Consider what you are going to do: for this man is a Roman citizen.

27 Markaasaa sirkaalkii sare u yimid oo ku yidhi isagii, Ii sheeg, ma nin reer Rooma ah baad tahay? Markaasuu yidhi, Haah.

Then the tribune came, and said to him, Tell me, art thou a Roman citizen? And he said, Yes.

28 Kolkaasaa sirkaalkii sare u jawaabay oo ku yidhi, Waddaninimadan waxaan siistay lacag badan. Laakiin Bawlos wuxuu ku yidhi, Anigu reer Rooma ayaan u dhashay.

And the tribune replied, With a large sum of money I purchased this citizenship. And Paul said, But I enjoy it as my birthright.

29 Haddaba kuwii doonayay inay isagii imtixaamaan markiiba way ka tageen, xataa sirkaalkii sarena waa cabsaday markuu ogaaday inuu yahay reer Rooma, maxaa yeelay, wuu xidhay.

Immediately then they who were about to put him to the question, withdrew from him: and indeed the tribune dreaded the consequences, when he knew that he was a Roman citizen, that he had even gone so far as to bind him.

30 Laakiin maalintii dambe, isagoo doonaya inuu hubsado waxa Yuhuuddu ku dacwaysay, ayuu isagii furay, oo wuxuu wadaaddadii sare iyo shirka oo dhan ku amray inay isu yimaadaan, markaasuu Bawlos hoos u keenay oo soo hor taagay iyagii.

So on the morrow, desirous to know of a certainty what it was of which he was accused by the Jews, he loosed him from the bonds, and commanded the high-priest and all the sanhedrim to appear, and bringing Paul down, set him before them.
