1 Thessalonians 3
1 Therefore when we couldn’t stand it any longer, we thought it good to be left behind at Athens alone,
Kanaafuu nu waan hammana caalaa obsuu dadhabneef kophaa keenya Ateenaatti hafuun gaarii nutti fakkaate.
2 and sent Timothy, our brother and God’s servant in the Good News of Messiah, to establish you and to comfort you concerning your faith,
Nus obboleessa keenya Xiimotewos, tajaajilaa Waaqaa isa wangeela Kiristoosiitti hojjetaa hidhata keenya taʼe sana, akka inni amantii keessanitti isin cimsuu fi isin jajjabeessuuf ergineerra;
3 that no one would be moved by these afflictions. For you know that we are appointed to this task.
kunis akka namni tokko iyyuu dhiphina kanaan hin jeeqamneef. Isinis akka nu waan kanaaf filatamne sirriitti beektu.
4 For most certainly, when we were with you, we told you beforehand that we are to suffer affliction, even as it happened, and you know.
Yeroo isin bira turretti akka dhiphinni nurra gaʼu isinitti himaa turreetii. Innis akkuma isin beektan sana taʼe.
5 For this cause I also, when I couldn’t stand it any longer, sent that I might know your faith, for fear that by any means the tempter had tempted you, and our labour would have been in vain.
Sababii kanaaf ani yommuun kana caalaa obsuu dadhabetti waaʼee amantii keessanii baruuf jedheen isa erge. Tarii inni nama qoru sun isin qoree dadhabbiin keenyas faayidaa malee hafeera jedheen sodaadhe.
6 But Timothy has just now come to us from you, and brought us glad news of your faith and love, and that you have good memories of us always, longing to see us, even as we also long to see you.
Amma garuu Xiimotewos isin biraa gara keenya dhufee waaʼee amantii keessaniitii fi waaʼee jaalala keessanii oduu gaarii nutti himeera. Akkasumas akka isin yeroo hunda yaada gaariidhaan nu yaaddanii fi akkuma nu isin arguu hawwinu sana akka isinis nu arguu hawwitan nutti himeera.
7 For this cause, brothers, we were comforted over you in all our distress and affliction through your faith.
Kanaaf yaa obboloota, nu dhiphinaa fi ariʼatama keenya hunda keessatti amantii keessaniin waaʼee keessan jajjabaanneerra.
8 For now we live, if you stand fast in the Lord.
Yoo isin Gooftaatti cimtanii dhaabatan nu dhugumaan ni jiraannaatii.
9 For what thanksgiving can we render again to God for you, for all the joy with which we rejoice for your sakes before our God,
Gammachuu sababii keessaniin fuula Waaqa keenyaa duratti qabnu hundaaf waaʼee keessaniif hammam Waaqa galateeffachuu dandeenya?
10 night and day praying exceedingly that we may see your face and may perfect that which is lacking in your faith?
Nu akka deebinee isin arginuu fi waan amantii keessan keessaa hirʼates akka isinii guutuu dandeenyuuf halkanii guyyaa cimsinee kadhanna.
11 Now may our God and Father himself, and our Lord Yeshua the Messiah, direct our way to you.
Ammas Waaqni keenyaa fi Abbaan keenya mataan isaa, Gooftaan keenya Yesuusis akka nu gara keessan dhufnu karaa nuuf haa qajeelchu.
12 May the Lord make you to increase and abound in love towards one another and towards all men, even as we also do towards you,
Akkuma jaalalli nu isinii qabnu dabalaa deemu sana Gooftaan jaalala isin walii keessanii fi nama hundaaf qabdan isinii haa guddisuu; haa baayʼisus.
13 to the end he may establish your hearts blameless in holiness before our God and Father at the coming of our Lord Yeshua with all his holy ones.
Akka isin yommuu Gooftaan keenya Yesuus qulqulloota isaa hunda wajjin dhufutti fuula Waaqa keenyaatii fi Abbaa keenyaa duratti warra mudaa hin qabnee fi qulqulloota taataniifis inni garaa keessan haa jajjabeessu.
