Falimaha Rasuullada 24
1 Kolkaasaa shan maalmood dabadeed waxaa yimid Ananiyas oo ahaa wadaadkii sare oo wata kuwo waayeellada ah iyo mid codkar ah oo Tertullos la odhan jiray; oo waxay taliyihii u sheegeen wax Bawlos ka gees ah.
Five days afterwards the high priest Ananias came down with some of the elders and a barrister named Tertullus. They laid an information with the Governor against Paul;
2 Oo markii loo yeedhay ayaa Tertullos wuxuu bilaabay inuu isagii dacweeyo, oo wuxuu yidhi, Adiga daraaddaa waxaannu ku raaxaysannaa nabad badan, oo dhaqaalahaaga aawadiisna xumaatooyinka waa laga hagaajiyaa quruuntan.
and, when the hearing came on, Tertullus began his speech for the prosecution.
3 Annaguna si walba iyo meel walba ayaannu ku aqbalnaa, adigan Feelikos ah oo sharafka weyn lahow, oo aad iyo aad ayaannu ugu mahadnaqaynaa.
‘We owe it to your Excellency,’ he said, ‘that we are enjoying profound peace, and we owe it to your foresight that this nation is constantly securing reforms – advantages which we very gratefully accept at all times and places.
4 Laakiin si aanan kuu sii daalin, waxaan kaa baryayaa inaad raxmaddaada nooga maqashid dhawr eray.
But – not to be tedious – I beg you, with your accustomed fairness, to listen to a brief statement of our case.
5 Maxaa yeelay, waxaannu aragnay in ninkanu yahay nin baas oo fidmad ka dhex kiciya Yuhuudda dunida joogta oo dhan, waana kan horgalaha u ah dariiqada Naasaraaniyiinta;
We have found this man a public pest; he is one who stirs up disputes among our people all the world over, and is a ringleader of the Nazarene heretics.
6 oo wuxuu aad ugu dadaalay inuu macbudka nijaaseeyo; oo weliba annagu waan soo qabannay isagii, oo waxaannu ku xukumi lahayn wax sharcigayaga ku saabsan.
He even attempted to desecrate the Temple itself, but we caught him;
7 Laakiin waxaa yimid sirkaalkii sare oo Lusiyas la yidhaahdo, oo gacantayada xoog kaga baxshay isagii,
8 oo wuxuu kuwii soo dacwaynayay ku amray inay hortaada yimaadaan. Isaga markaad adiga qudhaadu imtixaantid waad ka ogaan kari doontaa waxyaalahan aannu isaga ku dacwaynayno oo dhan.
and you will be able, by examining him on all these points, to satisfy yourself as to the charges which we are bringing against him.’
9 Oo Yuhuuddiina way ku darmadeen dacwadii iyagoo adkaynaya in waxyaalahaasu saas yihiin.
The Jewish crowd also joined in the attack and bore out his statements.
10 Oo markii taliyuhu u gacan haadiyey inuu hadlo, ayaa Bawlos u jawaabay oo wuxuu yidhi. Anigu waan ogahay inaad sannado badan quruuntan xaakin u ahayd, sababtaas daraaddeed anigoo aad u faraxsan ayaan isdaafacayaa.
On a sign from the Governor, Paul made this reply: ‘Knowing, as I do, for how many years you have acted as judge to this nation, it is with confidence that I undertake my own defence.
11 Adigu waad ogaan karaysaa inayan laba iyo toban maalmood ka badnayn kolkii aan Yeruusaalem caabudidda u tegey.
For you can easily verify that it is not more than twelve days ago that I went up to worship at Jerusalem,
12 Anigoo qof la doodaya ama dad badan kicinaya laygama helin ama macbudka ama sunagogyada ama magaalada.
where my prosecutors never found me holding discussions with anyone, or causing a crowd to collect – either in the Temple, or in the synagogues, or about the city;
13 Kuumana ay caddayn karaan waxyaalihii ay imminka igu dacwaynayaan.
and they cannot establish the charges which they are now making against me.
14 Laakiin tan baan kuu qiranayaa, inaan Ilaaha awowayaashayo ugu adeego sida Jidka ay yidhaahdaan dariiqo bidcinimo ah, anigoo rumaysan waxyaalaha sharcigu leeyahay oo dhan iyo waxyaalaha lagu qoray kitaabbadii nebiyada.
This, however, I do acknowledge to you, that it is as a believer in the Way which they call heretical, that I worship the God of my ancestors. At the same time, I believe everything that is in accordance with the Law and that is written in the prophets;
15 Oo waxaan xagga Ilaah ka rajaynayaa waxyaalaha ay kuwan qudhooduba filanayaan, waana inay jiri doonto sarakicidda ay kuwa xaqa ah iyo kuwa aan xaqa ahayn soo sara kici doonaan.
and I have a hope that rests in God – a hope which they also cherish – that there will one day be a resurrection of good and bad alike.
16 Tan ayaan ku dadaalayaa inaan had iyo goorba qabo qalbi aan xumaan u keenin xagga Ilaah iyo xagga dadba.
This being so, I strive at all times to keep my conscience clear before both God and people.
17 Haddaba sannado badan dabadeed ayaan waxaan u imid inaan quruuntayda u keeno sadaqooyin iyo qurbaanno.
After some years’ absence I had come to bring charitable gifts to my nation, and to make offerings;
18 Markaan kuwaas keenayay ayay macbudka iga heleen, anigoo daahirsamay, oo aan dad badan la joogin, oo aan buuq ku jirin; laakiin waxaa joogay kuwo Yuhuud ah oo Aasiya ka yimid
and it was while engaged in this that they found me in the Temple, after completing a period of purification, but not with any crowd or disorder.
19 kuwaasoo ay waajib ahayd inay halkan hortaada joogaan oo ay i dacweeyaan haddii ay wax igu haystaan.
There were, however, some Jews from Roman Asia who ought to have been here before you, and to have made any charge that they may have against me –
20 Haddii kalese nimankan qudhoodu ha sheegeen xaqdarradii ay igu heleen markii aan shirka hor istaagay,
Or else let my opponents here say what they found wrong in me when I was before the Council,
21 haddii ayan ahayn codkan keliya oo aan ku dhawaaqay markaan iyaga dhex taagnaa oo idhi, Wax ku saabsan sarakicidda kuwii dhintay ayaad maanta igu xukumaysaan.
except as to the one sentence that I shouted out as I stood among them – “It is about the resurrection of the dead that I am on my trial before you today”.’
22 Laakiin Feelikos oo aad u sii garanaya wax ku saabsan Jidka ayaa xaajadoodii dib u dhigay oo yidhi, Kolkii sirkaalka sare oo Lusiyas ah yimaado ayaan xaajadiinna dhammaan u garan doonaa.
Felix, however, adjourned the case – though he had a fairly accurate knowledge of all that concerned the Way – with the promise, ‘When Lysias, the commanding officer, comes down, I will give my decision in your case.’
23 Markaasuu boqol-u-taliyihii ku amray in la ilaaliyo isagoo aan xidhnayn oo aan saaxiibbadiis laga joojin inay u adeegaan.
So he gave orders to the centurion in charge of Paul to keep him in custody, but to relax the regulations, and not to prevent any of his personal friends from attending to his wants.
24 Laakiin dhawr maalmood dabadeed ayaa Feelikos yimid isagoo ay naagtiisa Darusilla oo Yahuudiyad ahayd la socoto, oo wuxuu u cid dirsaday Bawlos, oo wuxuu ka maqlay wax ku saabsan rumaysadkuu rumaystay Ciise Masiix.
Some days later Felix came with his wife Drusilla, who was Jewish, and, sending for Paul, listened to what he had to say about faith in Christ Jesus.
25 Oo intuu kala hadlayay xaqnimada iyo iscelinta iyo xukunka imanaya, ayaa Feelikos cabsaday oo u jawaabay oo ku yidhi, Haatan iska tag; oo markaan wakhti wanaagsan helo ayaan kuu yeedhan doonaa.
But, while Paul was speaking at length about righteousness, self-control, and the coming judgment, Felix became terrified, and interrupted him – ‘Go for the present, but, when I find an opportunity, I will send for you again.’
26 Wuxuu rajaynayay in Bawlos lacag siiyo isagii, sidaas daraaddeed ayuu marar badan u soo cid diray oo la hadlay isagii.
He was hoping, too, for a bribe from Paul, and so he used to send for him frequently and talk with him.
27 Laakiin markii laba sannadood dhammaatay waxaa Feelikos jagadiisa qaatay Borkiyos Feestos; Feelikosna isagoo doonaya inuu Yuhuuddii ka farxiyo ayuu Bawlos daayay isagoo xidhan.
But, after the lapse of two years, Felix was succeeded by Porcius Festus; and, wishing to gain popularity with the Jewish leaders, he left Paul a prisoner.
