Falimaha Rasuullada 8
1 Sawlosna raalli buu ka ahaa diliddiisa. Oo maalintaas kiniisaddii Yeruusaalem ku tiil aad baa loo silciyey; oo dhammaantoodna rasuulladii mooyaane waxay ku kala firdheen dalalka Yahuudiya iyo Samaariya.
Saul approved of his being put to death. On that very day a great persecution broke out against the church which was in Jerusalem; and its members, with the exception of the apostles, were all scattered over the districts of Judea and Samaria.
2 Markaasaa niman cibaado leh Istefanos aaseen oo aad ugu baroorteen.
Some religious men buried Stephen, with loud lamentations for him.
3 Laakiin Sawlos aad buu kiniisadda u rafaadiyey, oo intuu guri walba galay, ayuu rag iyo dumarba ka soo jiiday, oo xabsi ku riday.
But Saul began to devastate the church; he entered house after house, dragged out men and women alike, and threw them into prison.
4 Haddaba kuwii kala firidhsanaa, meel walba oo ay mareenba ereygii bay ku wacdiyeen.
Now those who were scattered in different directions went from place to place proclaiming the good news.
5 Markaasaa Filibos wuxuu tegey magaalada Samaariya, oo wuxuu dadka ku wacdiyey Masiixa.
Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and there began to preach the Christ.
6 Oo dadkii badnaa, iyagoo isku wada qalbi ah, ayay dhegaysteen wuxuu Filibos ku hadlay markay waxyaalahaas maqleen oo ay arkeen calaamooyinkuu sameeyey.
The people, one and all, listened attentively to what Philip told them, when they heard of, and saw, the miracles which he was working.
7 Waayo, kuwo badan oo jinniyo wasakh leh qabay, jinniyadii oo cod weyn ku qaylinaya ayaa ka soo baxay, oo kuwo badan oo curyaan ahaa iyo laangadhayaashiiba waa la bogsiiyey.
For there were many instances of people with foul spirits, where the spirits, with loud screams, came out of them; and many who were paralysed or lame were cured,
8 Magaaladaasna aad baa looga farxay.
so that there was great rejoicing throughout that city.
9 Waxaa jiray nin Simoon la odhan jiray oo markii hore magaalada wax ku sixri jiray oo dadka reer Samaariya ka yaabin jiray, isagoo isugu sheegaya inuu yahay nin weyn.
There was staying in the city a man named Simon, who had been practicing magic there and mystifying the Samaritan people, giving himself out to be some great being.
10 Isagay dhammaantood, yar iyo weynba, wada dhegaysan jireen oo odhan jireen, Ninkanu waa xooggii Ilaah oo la odhan jiray Weyne.
Everyone, high and low, paid attention to him. “This man,” they used to say, “must be that power of God which people call ‘The Great Power.’”
11 Sababtii ay u dhegaysteenna waxay ahayd inuu wakhti dheer iyaga sixirkiisa kaga yaabiyey.
And they paid attention to him because they had for a long time been mystified by his magic arts.
12 Laakiin markay rumaysteen injiilka boqortooyada Ilaah iyo magaca Ciise Masiix oo Filibos ku wacdiyey ayaa iyaga rag iyo dumarba la baabtiisay.
However, when they came to believe Philip, as he told them the good news about the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.
13 Simoon qudhiisuna waa rumaystay, oo markii la baabtiisay dabadeed, had iyo goorba wuxuu la socon jiray Filibos, wuuna la yaabay markuu arkay calaamooyinkii iyo yaababkii waaweynaa oo uu sameeyey.
Even Simon believed, and after his baptism attached himself to Philip, and was in his turn mystified at seeing signs and great miracles constantly occurring.
14 Haddaba markii rasuulladii Yeruusaalem joogay maqleen in Samaariya ereygii Ilaah aqbashay, ayay waxay u soo direen Butros iyo Yooxanaa,
When the apostles at Jerusalem heard that the Samaritans had welcomed God’s message, they sent Peter and John to them;
15 kuwaasoo markay yimaadeen, u duceeyey iyaga inay Ruuxa Quduuska ah helaan;
and they, on their arrival, prayed that the Samaritans might receive the Holy Spirit.
16 maxaa yeelay, midkoodna weli kuma uu soo degin; laakiinse magaca Rabbi Ciise oo keliya ayaa lagu baabtiisay.
(As yet the Spirit had not descended on any of them; they had only been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus).
17 Markaasay gacmahooda saareen, oo waxay heleen Ruuxa Quduuska ah.
Then Peter and John placed their hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit.
18 Haddaba Simoon markuu arkay in markii rasuulladu gacmahooda saareen, waxaa la siiyey Ruuxa Quduuska ah, ayuu lacag u taagay,
When Simon saw that it was through the placing of the apostles’ hands on them that the Spirit was given, he brought them a sum of money and said,
19 isagoo leh, Anigana i siiya xooggan in nin kastoo aan gacmahayga saaroba, uu helo Ruuxa Quduuska ah.
‘Give me also this power of yours, so that, if I place my hands on anyone, he may receive the Holy Spirit.’
20 Laakiin Butros baa wuxuu ku yidhi, Lacagtaadu ha kula baabba'do, maxaa yeelay, waxaad u malaysay in hadiyadda Ilaah lacag lagu helo.
‘A curse on you and on your silver,’ Peter exclaimed, ‘for thinking that God’s free gift can be bought with money!
21 Xaalkan kuma lihid ama qayb ama badh; maxaa yeelay, qalbigaagu Ilaah hortiisa kuma qummana.
You have no share or part in our message, for your heart is not right with God.
22 Sidaas aawadeed xumaantaadan ka toobadkeen, Rabbigana ka bari in fikirka qalbigaaga lagaa cafiyo.
Therefore repent of this wickedness of yours, and pray to the Lord, that, if possible, you may be forgiven for such a thought;
23 Waayo, waxaan arkaa adigoo ku jira xammeetida qadhaadhnimada, kuna xidhan xaqdarrada.
for I see that you have fallen into the bitterness of envy and the fetters of sin.’
24 Markaasaa Simoon u jawaabay oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Rabbiga ii barya inaan waxyaalahaas aad ku hadasheen midkoodna igu dhicin.
‘Pray to the Lord for me, all of you,’ Simon answered, ‘so that none of the things you have spoken of may happen to me.’
25 Haddaba iyagu markay marag fureen oo Rabbiga ereygiisa ku hadleen, waxay ku noqdeen Yeruusaalem, waxayna tuulooyin badan oo reer Samaariya ah ku wacdiyeen injiilka.
Peter and John, having borne their testimony and delivered the Lord’s message, returned to Jerusalem, telling the good news, as they went, in many Samaritan villages.
26 Laakiin Rabbiga malaa'igtiisa ayaa waxay la hadashay Filibos, iyadoo ku leh, Kac oo aad xagga koonfureed, oo waxaad raacdaa jidka Yeruusaalem ka taga ilaa Gaasa taasoo cidla ah.
Meanwhile an angel of the Lord had said to Philip, ‘Set out on a journey southwards, along the road that runs down from Jerusalem to Gaza.’ (It is now deserted).
27 Wuuna u kacay oo aaday; oo waxaana ku soo baxay nin bohon oo Xabashi ah oo amar weyn ka hoos hayay Kandake boqoraddii Xabashida, wuuna u talin jiray maalkeeda oo dhan, wuxuuna Yeruusaalem u yimid inuu Ilaah caabudo.
So Philip set out on a journey; and on his way he came on an official of high rank, in the service of Candace, Queen of the Abyssinians. He was her treasurer, and had been to Jerusalem to worship,
28 Kolkuu ka soo noqonayay, ayuu ku fadhiyey gaadhifaraskiisa, oo wuxuu akhriyeyey kitaabka nebi Isayos.
and was now on his way home, sitting in his carriage and reading the prophet Isaiah.
29 Ruuxuna wuxuu Filibos ku yidhi, Ku dhowow, oo gaadhigan raac.
The Spirit said to Philip, ‘Go up to the carriage over there and keep close to it.’
30 Oo Filibos markuu ku orday, wuxuu maqlay isagoo akhriyaya kitaabka nebi Isayos, wuxuuna ku yidhi, Ma garanaysaa waxaad akhriyaysid?
So Philip ran up, and he heard the Abyssinian reading the prophet Isaiah. ‘Do you understand what you are reading?’ he asked.
31 Kolkaasuu yidhi, Sidee baan ku garan karaa in lay toosiyo mooyaane? Markaasuu Filibos ka baryay inuu soo fuulo oo la fadhiisto.
‘How can I,’ the other answered, ‘unless someone will explain it to me?’ and he invited Philip to get up and sit by his side.
32 Haddaba meeshuu Qorniinka ka akhriyeyey waa tan, Isaga sidii wan la qalayo baa loo kaxeeyey; Oo sidii lax ku aamusan ninka dhogorta ka xiira hortiisa, Isagu afkiisa ma uu furo;
The passage of scripture which he was reading was this – “Like a sheep, he was led away to slaughter, and as a lamb is dumb in the hands of its shearer, so he refrains from opening his lips.
33 Intuu is-hoosaysiiyey baa gartiisii laga qaaday; Farcankiisii yaa sheegi doona? Maxaa yeelay, noloshiisa dhulkaa laga qaaday.
He was humiliated and justice was denied him. Who will tell the story of his generation? For his life is cut off from earth.”
34 Bohonku wuxuu Filibos u jawaabay oo ku yidhi, Waxaan kaa baryayaa, Nebigu yuu ka hadlayaa? Ma isaga qudhiisaa mise waa mid kale?
‘Now,’ said the Treasurer, addressing Philip, ‘tell me, of whom is the prophet speaking? Of himself, or of someone else?’
35 Filibos baa afkiisa furay, oo intuu Qorniinkan ka bilaabay ayuu isaga ku wacdiyey Ciise.
Then Philip began, and, taking this passage as his text, told him the good news about Jesus.
36 Kolkay waddada marayeen waxay yimaadeen meel biyah, bohonkuna wuxuu yidhi, Bal eeg, waa biyo. Maxaa iga celinaya in lay baabtiiso?
Presently, as they were going along the road, they came to some water, and the Treasurer exclaimed, ‘Look! Here is water; what is to prevent my being baptized?’
37 Oo Filibos wuxuu ku yidhi, Haddaad qalbigaaga oo dhan ka rumaysatid, waa suurtowdaa. Wuuna u jawaabay oo yidhi, Waxaan rumaysanahay in Ciise Masiix yahay Wiilka Ilaah.
38 Markaasuu amray in gaadhigu joogsado; labadooduna biyahay galeen, Filibos iyo bohonkuba, oo wuu baabtiisay isaga.
So he ordered the carriage to stop, and they went down into the water – both Philip and the Treasurer – and Philip baptized him.
39 Oo markay biyihii ka soo baxeen, ayuu Ruuxii Rabbigu dhuftay Filibos, bohonkuna mar dambe ma uu arkin isagii, maxaa yeelay, jidkiisii ayuu iska qaaday isagoo faraxsan.
But, when they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught Philip away, and the Treasurer saw no more of him; for he continued his journey with a joyful heart.
40 Laakiin Filibos waxaa laga helay Asootos, oo magaalooyinkuu dhex marayay oo dhan wuxuu ku wacdiyey injiilka ilaa intuu gaadhay Kaysariya.
But Philip was found at Ashdod, and, as he went on his way, he told the good news in all the towns through which he passed, until he came to Caesarea.
