Falimaha Rasuullada 7
1 Markaasaa wadaadkii sare wuxuu yidhi, Waxanu ma saasaa?
Then the high priest said, “Are these things so?”
2 Markaasuu ku yidhi, Walaalo iyo aabbayaalow, dhegaysta, Ilaaha Ammaantu wuxuu u muuqday awoweheen Ibraahim markuu Mesobotamiya joogay intuusan Haaraan degin,
And Stephen said: “Noble brothers and fathers, listen. The God of glory appeared to our father Abraham, when he was in Mesopotamia, before he stayed in Haran.
3 oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Ka soo kac waddankaaga iyo dadkaaga, oo kaalay dalka aan ku tusi doono.
And God said to him, ‘Depart from your country and from your kindred, and go into the land that I will show to you.’
4 Markaasuu ka soo kacay dalkii reer Kaldayiin oo wuxuu soo degay Haaraan; oo markuu aabbihiis dhintay ayaa Ilaah meeshaas isaga ka soo wareejiyey oo keenay dalkan aad haatan deggan tihiin,
Then he went away from the land of the Chaldeans, and he lived at Haran. And later, after his father was dead, God brought him into this land, in which you now dwell.
5 oo dhaxalna kama uu siin, xataa meel uu cagtiisa dhigo; laakiin wuxuu isaga ka ballanqaaday inuu dalka mulki u siiyo isaga iyo farcankiisa ka dambeeyaba, in kastoo uusan dhal lahayn.
And he gave him no inheritance in it, not even the space of one step. But he promised to give it to him as a possession, and to his offspring after him, though he did not have a son.
6 Ilaah sidan buu u hadlay, in farcankiisu degi doono dal shisheeye, oo iyaga la addoonsan doono, oo afar boqol oo sannadood la dhibi doono.
Then God told him that his offspring would be a settler in a foreign land, and that they would subjugate them, and treat them badly, for four hundred years.
7 Ilaah wuxuu yidhi, Quruunta iyagu ay u addoonsamaan ayaan xukumi doonaa; markaas dabadeed ayay ka soo bixi doonaan oo meeshan iigu adeegi doonaan.
‘And the nation whom they will serve, I will judge,’ said the Lord. ‘And after these things, they shall depart and shall serve me in this place.’
8 Oo wuxuu isaga siiyey axdiga gudniinta; haddaba Ibraahim wuxuu dhalay Isxaaq, oo maalintii siddeedaad ayuu guday isaga; Isxaaqna wuxuu dhalay Yacquub; Yacquubna wuxuu dhalay laba-iyo-tobankii aynu ka soo farcannay.
And he gave him the covenant of circumcision. And so he conceived Isaac and circumcised him on the eighth day. And Isaac conceived Jacob, and Jacob, the twelve Patriarchs.
9 Kuwii aan ka soo farcannayna intay Yuusuf ka masayreen ayay waxay ka iibiyeen Masar;
And the Patriarchs, being jealous, sold Joseph into Egypt. But God was with him.
10 laakiin Ilaah baa isaga la jiray oo dhibaatadiisii oo dhan ka samatabbixiyey, oo axsaan iyo xigmad ka siiyey Fircoon, oo ahaa boqorkii Masar; markaasuu isaguna wuxuu isagii taliye uga dhigay Masar iyo reerkiisii oo dhan.
And he rescued him from all his tribulations. And he gave him grace and wisdom in the sight of Pharaoh, the king of Egypt. And he appointed him as governor over Egypt and over all his house.
11 Haddaba waxaa Masar iyo Kancaan oo dhan ka wada dhacay abaar iyo dhibaato weyn; awowayaasheenna dhuuni bay ka waayeen.
Then a famine occurred in all of Egypt and Canaan, and a great tribulation. And our fathers did not find food.
12 Laakiin markii Yacquub maqlay in Masar sarreen jiro, ayuu markii ugu horraysay awowayaasheen diray.
But when Jacob had heard that there was grain in Egypt, he sent our fathers first.
13 Oo markii labaad waxaa walaalihiis la aqoonsiiyey Yuusuf; markaasaa Fircoon wuxuu gartay Yuusuf qoladiisii.
And on the second occasion, Joseph was recognized by his brothers, and his ancestry was made manifest to Pharaoh.
14 Markaasaa Yuusuf cid u diray oo u yeedhay aabbihiis Yacquub iyo dadkiisii oo dhan oo ahaa shan iyo toddobaatan qof.
Then Joseph sent for and brought his father Jacob, with all his kindred, seventy-five souls.
15 Markaasaa Yacquub Masar tegey. Isaga qudhiisii waa dhintay iyo awowayaasheenba;
And Jacob descended into Egypt, and he passed away, and so did our fathers.
16 waxaana la geeyey Shekem oo la dhigay xabaashii Ibraahim qiimaha lacagta ah kaga iibsaday wiilashii Xamoor oo Shekem joogay.
And they crossed over into Shechem, and they were placed in the sepulcher which Abraham bought for a sum of money from the sons of Hamor, the son of Shechem.
17 Laakiin markuu soo dhowaaday wakhtigii ballankii Ilaah kula ballamay Ibraahim, ayay dadkii ku soo kordheen oo ku bateen Masar,
And when the time of the Promise that God had revealed to Abraham drew near, the people increased and were multiplied in Egypt,
18 tan iyo intii boqor kale oo aan Yuusuf oqooni Masar ka kacay.
even until another king, who did not know Joseph, rose up in Egypt.
19 Isaguna waa khiyaaneeyey dadkeenna, awowayaasheenna wuu xumeeyey, oo wuxuuna ku qasbay inay ilmahoodii yaryaraa iska tuuraan si ayan u sii noolaan.
This one, encompassing our kindred, afflicted our fathers, so that they would expose their infants, lest they be kept alive.
20 Muusena wakhtigaasuu dhashay, oo wuxuu ahaa wax qurux badan; oo saddex bilood ayaa gurigii aabbihiis lagu hayay;
In the same time, Moses was born. And he was in the grace of God, and he was nourished for three months in the house of his father.
21 markii la tuurayna, Fircoon gabadhiisii ayaa qaadatay oo sidii wiilkeedii oo kale u korsatay.
Then, having been abandoned, the daughter of Pharaoh took him in, and she raised him as her own son.
22 Muusena waxaa la baray xigmaddii Masriyiinta oo dhan; hadalladiisa iyo falimihiisana xoog buu ku lahaa.
And Moses was instructed in all the wisdom of the Egyptians. And he was mighty in his words and in his deeds.
23 Laakiin markuu gaadhay afartan sannadood oo buuxa ayaa waxaa qalbigiisa gashay inuu walaalihiis oo reer binu Israa'iil ahaa soo booqdo.
But when forty years of age were completed in him, it rose up in his heart that he should visit his brothers, the sons of Israel.
24 Oo markuu arkay midkood oo lagu gardarroonayo, ayuu ka celiyey, oo intuu kii la dulmayay uu aarguday, ayuu Masrigii dilay;
And when he had seen a certain one suffering injury, he defended him. And striking the Egyptian, he wrought a retribution for him who was enduring the injury.
25 oo wuxuu u malaynayay in walaalihiis garteen sida Ilaah gacantiisa iyaga ugu samatabbixinayo, laakiin ma ay garan.
Now he supposed that his brothers would understand that God would grant them salvation through his hand. But they did not understand it.
26 Oo maalintii ku xigtay ayuu iyagoo diriraya u yimi, oo wuxuu damcay inuu heshiisiiyo, markaasuu yidhi, Niman yahow, walaalaad tihiine; maxaad isu dulmaysaan?
So truly, on the following day, he appeared before those who were arguing, and he would have reconciled them in peace, saying, ‘Men, you are brothers. So why would you harm one another?’
27 Laakiin kii deriskiisii dulmayay, ayaa isaga iska riixay oo ku yidhi, Yaa nooga kaa dhigay taliye iyo xaakin?
But he who was causing the injury to his neighbor rejected him, saying: ‘Who has appointed you as leader and judge over us?
28 Ma waxaad doonaysaa inaad ii dishid sidaad Masrigii shaalay u dishay?
Could it be that you want to kill me, in the same way that you killed the Egyptian yesterday?’
29 Markaasaa Muuse hadalkaas aawadiis cararay, oo sidii ajanabi buu dalka Midyaan u degganaa, meeshaasna laba wiil buu ku dhalay.
Then, at this word, Moses fled. And he became a foreigner in the land of Midian, where he produced two sons.
30 Markii afartan sannadood dhammaatay dabadeed ayaa waxaa isagii Buur Siinay cidladeedii uga muuqatay malaa'ig ku dhex jirta geed dab ka ololayo.
And when forty years were completed, there appeared to him, in the desert of Mount Sinai, an Angel, in a flame of fire in a bush.
31 Oo markii Muuse arkay ayuu wuxuu arkay la yaabay, oo intuu u soo dhowaanayay inuu arko, ayaa waxaa u yimid codkii Rabbiga oo leh,
And upon seeing this, Moses was amazed at the sight. And as he drew near in order to gaze at it, the voice of the Lord came to him, saying:
32 Anigu waxaan ahay Ilaaha awowayaashaa, Ilaaha Ibraahim iyo Ilaaha Isxaaq iyo Ilaaha Yacquub. Markaasaa Muuse gariiray oo ku dhici waayay inuu eego.
‘I am the God of your fathers: the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.’ And Moses, being made to tremble, did not dare to look.
33 Markaasaa Rabbigu isaga ku yidhi, Kabaha cagahaaga ka furfur; maxaa yeelay, meesha aad ku taagan tahay waa dhul quduus ah.
But the Lord said to him: ‘Loosen the shoes from your feet. For the place in which you stand is holy ground.
34 Dadkayga Masar jooga rafaadkooda waan arkay, taahoodana waan maqlay, oo waxaan u imid inaan samatabbixiyo; haddaba kaalay, Masar baan kuu diri doonaaye.
Certainly, I have seen the affliction of my people who are in Egypt, and I have heard their groaning. And so, I am coming down to free them. And now, go forth and I will send you into Egypt.’
35 Muusahakan ay diideen oo ku yidhaahdeen, Yaa kaa dhigay taliye iyo xaakin? Isagaa Ilaah ugu soo diray gacanta malaa'igtii geedka uga soo muuqatay inuu ahaado taliye iyo samatabbixiye.
This Moses, whom they rejected by saying, ‘Who has appointed you as leader and judge?’ is the one God sent to be leader and redeemer, by the hand of the Angel who appeared to him in the bush.
36 Kanaa iyaga Masar ka soo saaray, oo yaabab iyo calaamooyin ku sameeyey Masar, iyo Badda Cas, iyo cidlada afartan sannadood.
This man led them out, accomplishing signs and wonders in the land of Egypt, and at the Red Sea, and in the desert, for forty years.
37 Kanu waa Muusihii ku yidhi reer binu Israa'iil, Ilaah wuxuu walaalihiin idiinka dhex kicin doonaa nebi sidayda oo kale.
This is Moses, who said to the sons of Israel: ‘God will raise up for you a prophet like me from your own brothers. You shall listen to him.’
38 Kanu waa kii ku dhex jiray kiniisaddii cidlada oo la jiray malaa'igtii isaga kala hadashay Buur Siinay iyo awowayaasheen, kii la siiyey hadallada nool inuu ina siiyo.
This is he who was in the Church in the wilderness, with the Angel who was speaking to him on Mount Sinai, and with our fathers. It is he who received the words of life to give to us.
39 Isaga awowayaasheen ma ay doonaynin inay addeecaan, laakiin intay iska riixeen ayay qalbigooda geliyeen inay Masar dib ugu jeestaan,
It is he whom our fathers were not willing to obey. Instead, they rejected him, and in their hearts they turned away toward Egypt,
40 oo waxay Haaruun ku yidhaahdeen, Inoo samee ilaahyo ina hor socda; maxaa yeelay, Muusihii inaga soo kaxeeyey dhulka Masar garan mayno waxa ku dhacay.
saying to Aaron: ‘Make gods for us, which may go before us. For this Moses, who led us away from the land of Egypt, we do not know what has happened to him.’
41 Markaasay waxay wakhtigaas sameeyeen weyl, oo sanamkii waxay u keeneen allabari, oo waxay ku farxeen shuqulkii gacmahoodu sameeyeen.
And so they fashioned a calf in those days, and they offered sacrifices to an idol, and they rejoiced in the works of their own hands.
42 Laakiin Ilaah baa ka jeestay, oo wuxuu faraha uga qaaday inay u adeegaan guutada samada; sida ay ugu qoran tahay kitaabka nebiyada, Bal reer binu Israa'iilow, afartankii sannadood oo aad cidlada joogteen, Ma anigaad i siiseen xoolo qalan iyo allabaryo?
Then God turned, and he handed them over, to subservience to the armies of heaven, just as it was written in the Book of the Prophets: ‘Did you not offer victims and sacrifices to me for forty years in the desert, O house of Israel?
43 Weliba waxaad qaadateen taambuuggii Molokh Iyo xiddigtii ilaaha Remfan, Oo ah waxyaalihii aad u samaysateen inaad caabuddaan. Haddaba waxaan idiin kaxayn doonaa Baabuloon shishadeeda.
And yet you took up for yourselves the tabernacle of Moloch and the star of your god Rephan, figures which you yourselves formed in order to adore them. And so I will carry you away, beyond Babylon.’
44 Awowayaasheen waxay cidlada ku hayeen taambuuggii maragga, sidii kii Muuse la hadlay ugu amray isaga inuu u sameeyo sidii qaabkii uu arkay.
The tabernacle of the testimony was with our fathers in the desert, just as God ordained for them, speaking to Moses, so that he would make it according to the form that he had seen.
45 Kaas ayaa awowayaasheen markoodii la soo qaadeen Yashuuca markay galeen oo qaateen dhulkii quruumihii Ilaah awowayaasheen hortooda ku eryay, ilaa waagii Daa'uud.
But our fathers, receiving it, also brought it, with Joshua, into the land of the Gentiles, whom God expelled before the face of our fathers, even until the days of David,
46 Daa'uudna Ilaah hortiis ayuu wanaag ka helay, oo wuxuu weyddiistay inuu Ilaahii Yacquub u helo meel uu dego.
who found grace before God and who asked that he might obtain a tabernacle for the God of Jacob.
47 Laakiinse Sulaymaan baa guri u dhisay.
But it was Solomon who built a house for him.
48 Hase ahaatee Kan ugu sarreeya ma dego guryo gacmo lagu sameeyo; sida nebigu leeyahay,
Yet the Most High does not live in houses built by hands, just as he said through the prophet:
49 Samadu waa carshigayga, Dhulkuna waa meeshaan cagaha saarto, Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Guri caynmaad ii dhisi doontaan? Ama maxay tahay meeshaan ku nastaa?
‘Heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool. What kind of house would you build for me? says the Lord. And which is my resting place?
50 Miyaan gacantaydu samayn waxyaalahan oo dhan?
Has not my hand made all these things?’
51 Idinkan madaxa adag oo aan qalbiga iyo dhegaha laga gudinow, weligiinba Ruuxa Quduuska ah waad hor joogsataan. Sidii awowayaashiin yeeli jireen oo kale ayaad idinna yeeshaan.
Stiff-necked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, you ever resist the Holy Spirit. Just as your fathers did, so also do you do.
52 Bal nebiyada kee baan awowayaashiin silcin? Xataa iyagu waxay dileen kuwii hore u sheegay imaatinka Kan xaqa ah; kan idinku aad haatan gacangeliseen oo disheen.
Which of the Prophets have your fathers not persecuted? And they killed those who foretold the advent of the Just One. And you have now become the betrayers and murderers of him.
53 Waxaad sharciga u hesheen sidii wax malaa'igahu hagaajiyeen, laakiinse ma aydnaan xajin.
You received the law by the actions of Angels, and yet you have not kept it.”
54 Haddaba markay waxyaalahaas maqleen way ka xanaaqeen oo u ilka jirriqsadeen isaga.
Then, upon hearing these things, they were deeply wounded in their hearts, and they gnashed their teeth at him.
55 Laakiin isagoo Ruuxa Quduuska ahu ka buuxo ayuu samada aad u fiiriyey, oo wuxuu arkay ammaanta Ilaah iyo Ciise oo midigta Ilaah taagan,
But he, being filled with the Holy Spirit, and gazing intently toward heaven, saw the glory of God and Jesus standing at the right hand of God.
56 oo wuxuu yidhi, Bal eega, waxaan arkayaa samooyinkii oo la furay iyo Wiilkii Aadanaha oo midigta Ilaah taagan.
And he said, “Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing at the right hand of God.”
57 Laakiin markaasay cod weyn ku qayliyeen oo dhegaha furaysteen, oo iyagoo isku wada qalbi ah ku yaaceen isagii.
Then they, crying out with a loud voice, blocked their ears and, with one accord, rushed violently toward him.
58 Markaasay intay magaalada ka soo saareen dhagxiyeen; kuwii maragga ahaana dharkoodii waxay ag dhigteen nin dhallinyaro ah oo la odhan jiray Sawlos.
And driving him out, beyond the city, they stoned him. And witnesses placed their garments beside the feet of a youth, who was called Saul.
59 Markaasay dhagxiyeen Istefanos oo Rabbiga baryaya oo ku leh, Rabbi Ciisow, ruuxayga qaado.
And as they were stoning Stephen, he called out and said, “Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.”
60 Markaasuu jilba joogsaday oo cod weyn ku qayliyey oo ku yidhi, Rabbiyow, dembigan dushooda ha ka dhigin. Oo markuu sidaas yidhi, ayuu dhintay.
Then, having been brought to his knees, he cried out with a loud voice, saying, “Lord, do not hold this sin against them.” And when he had said this, he fell asleep in the Lord.
