Hawaareta Oosuwa 15
1 Issi issi asati Yihudappe Anxookiya bidi, “Muse wogaatho hintte qaxxarettonna ixxiko attanaw dandda7ekketa” gidi ammaneyssata tamaarsso doomidosona.
Then some men arrived from Judea who started teaching the believers, “Unless you're circumcised according to the rules set down by Moses, you can't be saved.”
2 Hessi Phawuloosanne Barnnabaasa enttara daro palamanaadanne kaccanaada oothis. Hessa gisho, Anxookiyan de7iya issi issi asati Phawuloosaranne Barnnabaasara Yerusalaame bidi Hawaaretaranne cimatara gayttidi he odaa billanaw qofay qashettis.
Paul and Barnabas had many arguments and debates with them. So Paul and Barnabas and some others were appointed to go to Jerusalem and talk to the apostles and leaders there about this issue.
3 Woosa keethay entta kiittin bidosona. Entti Finqeranne Samaarera aadhdhishe Ayhude gidonnayssati Xoossako waanidi simmidaakko odidosona. Hessi ammaneyssata ubbaa daro ufayssis.
The church sent them on their way, and as they traveled through Phoenicia and Samaria, they explained how foreigners were being converted, which made all the believers very happy.
4 Entti Yerusalaame gakkida wode woosa keethay, Hawaaretinne cimati entta mokkidosona. Xoossay banttara oothidabaa ubbaa odidosona.
When they arrived in Jerusalem they were welcomed by the church members, the apostles, and the elders. They explained everything God had done through them.
5 Shin Farisaaweta baggafe ammanida issi issi asati denddi eqqidi, “Ayhude gidonnashin ammanida asati qaxxaretanawunne Muse higgiya naaganaw bessees” yaagidosona.
But they were opposed by some of the believers who belonged to the Pharisee faction. They said, “These converts have to be circumcised, and instructed to observe the law of Moses.”
6 Hawaaretinne cimati hessa zorettanaw shiiqidosona.
The apostles and elders met together to discuss the issue.
7 Keehi haasayidayssafe guye, Phexiroosi denddi eqqidi, “Ta ishato, Ayhude gidonnayssati Wonggelaa qaala ta doonappe si7idi ammanana mela kasetidi tana Xoossay hintte giddofe dooridayssa hintte ereeta.
After much debate, Peter stood up and said to them, “Brothers, you know that some time ago God chose me from among you so that the foreigners could hear the message of good news and trust in Jesus.
8 Asa wozana eriya Xoossay Geeshsha Ayyaana nuus immidayssada enttawuka immidi tumays.
God, who knows thewhat we're thinking, has shown that he accepts them, giving them the Holy Spirit just as he did to us.
9 Ammanon entta wozanaa geeshshida gisho nu giddoninne entta giddon dummatethi wothibeenna.
He doesn't make any distinction between us and them—he cleansed their thoughts as they trusted in him.
10 Hessa gisho, nu aawatinne nuuni tookkanaw dandda7iboonna qambbara ammaneyssata morggen wothidi ha77i ays hintte Xoossaa paacetii?
So why do you want to oppose God and put a burden on the believers that our fathers weren't able to bear, and we can't either?
11 Godaa Yesuus Kiristtoosa aadho keehatethan entti attidayssada nukka attidayssa ammanoos” yaagis.
We're convinced that we're saved through the grace of the Lord Jesus, in the same way they are.”
12 Asay si7i gidi, Barnnabaasinne Phawuloosi Ayhude gidonna asaa giddon bantta baggara Xoossay oothida malaatatanne oorathabaa ubbaa odishin si7oosona.
Everyone listened attentively to Barnabas and Paul as they explained the miraculous signs that God had performed through them among the foreigners.
13 Entti haasaya onggidaappe guye Yayqoobi, “Ishato, ta geyssa si7ite.
After they had finished speaking, James spoke up, saying, “Brothers, listen to me.
14 Xoossay Ayhude gidonnayssata giddofe ba ase dooranaw koyidi enttana koyro waattidi qoppidaakko Simooni odis.
Simon has described how God first revealed his concern for the foreigners by taking from them a people committed to him.
15 Nabeta qaalay hayssara ginees. Geeshsha Maxaafan,
This is in accordance with the words of the prophets, as it's written,
16 ‘Hayssafe guye taani simmana, kunddida Dawite kawotethaa denthana. Laattida keethaka zaara essana.
‘In the future I will return, and I will rebuild the fallen house of David; I will rebuild its ruins and set it straight.
17 Attida asay ubbay taakko yaana, taani xeegida Ayhude gidonna asay ubbay tana koyana.
I will do this so that those who are left may come to the Lord, including the foreigners who call on my name.
This is what the Lord says, who revealed these things long ago.’ (aiōn g165)
19 “Hessa gisho, ta qofay Xoossako simmiya Ayhude gidonnayssata nuuni waaysonnaako lo77o.
So my decision is that we shouldn't make it difficult for foreigners who turn to God.
20 Shin entti eeqas yarshshettidi tunidabaa moonna mela, laymatonna mela, bawuta moonna melanne suuthi uyonna mela enttaw nuuni dabddaabbiya xaafanaw koshshees.
We should write to them and tell them to avoid food sacrificed to idols, sexual immorality, meat of animals that have been strangled, and from consuming blood.
21 Muse higgey benippe doomidi Sambbaatan Sambbaatan Ayhude Woosa Keethatan nabbabettishe katama ubban sabbakettees” yaagis.
For the law of Moses has been taught in every town for a long, long time—it's read in the synagogues every Sabbath.”
22 Hessafe guye, hawaaretinne cimati woosa keethaa asa ubbaara issife bantta giddofe guutha asata dooridi Phawuloosaranne Barnnabaasara Anxookiya yeddanaw qofa qachchidosona. Entti daro bonchchettida nam77u asata Barssaaba geetettiya Yihudanne Sillaase dooridosona.
Then the apostles and elders, together with the whole church, decided it would be good to choose some representatives and send them to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas. They chose Judas Barsabbas and Silas, leaders among the brothers,
23 Hayssada geetetti xaafettida dabddaabbiya entta bolla yeddidosona: “Nuuni hawaaretinne cimati hintte ishati, Anxookiyan, Sooriyaninne Kilqiyan de7iya Ayhude gidonna ishatas nu sarothuwa kiittoos.
and sent them with this letter: “Greetings from us, the apostles and elders and brothers, to the non-Jewish brothers in Antioch, Syria, and Cilicia:
24 “Nuuni kiittonna asati nu giddofe bidi, ‘Hintte qaxxarettanawunne higgiya naaganaw bessees’ gidi, hinttena waaysidayssanne yiloyidayssa si7ida.
We have heard that some from our group have confused you with their teachings, causing you trouble. We certainly didn't tell them to do this!
25 Nuuni dosiya Barnnabaasanne Phawuloosa doorettida asatara issife hintteko kiittanaw issi wozanan nu qofaa qachchida.
So we have agreed to choose some representatives and send them to you together with our much-loved brothers Barnabas and Paul,
26 Entti nu Godaa Yesuus Kiristtoosa gisho bantta de7uwa aathi immidosona.
who have risked their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
27 Hessa gisho, nuuni xaafidayssa entti bantta doonan gujjidi hinttew odana mela Yihudanne Sillaase kiittida.
So we are sending to you Judas and Silas who can verbally confirm what we're saying.
28 “Ha koshsheyssatappe attin hara tooho hinttena toossonna mela nunne Geeshsha Ayyaanay oda qachchida.
It seemed best to the Holy Spirit and to us not to place on you any heavier burden than these important requirements.
29 Eeqas yarshshettidi tunidabaa mooppite, suuthu uyoppite, bawuta mooppite, laymatoppite. Ha ubbaafe hintte huu7iya naagikko hintte lo77obaa ootheeta. Hiza, saro de7ite” yaagidosona.
You should avoid: anything sacrificed to idols; blood; meat from strangled animals; and sexual immorality. You will do well to observe these requirements. God bless you.”
30 Hessa gisho, kiitettidayssati moyzettidi Anxookiya bidi ammaniyaa asaa shiishidi, dabddaabbiya immidosona.
The men were sent on their way to Antioch. When they arrived they called everybody together and delivered the letter.
31 Entti he minthethiya dabddaabbiya nabbabida wode ufayttidosona.
After they had read it, the people were so happy for the encouraging message.
32 Qassi Yihudinne Sillaasey bantta huu7en nabe gidiya gisho ammaneyssata loythi zoridi minthethidosona.
Judas and Silas, who were also prophets, encouraged the brothers, explaining many things, and strengthening them.
33 Entti Anxookiyan guutha gallas uttidaappe guye ishati lo77ora moyzin banttana kiittidayssatakko simmidosona.
After spending some time there they were sent back by the brothers with their blessing to the believers in Jerusalem.
34 [Shin Sillaasey yan attanaw koyis.]
35 Qassi Phawuloosinne Barnnabaasi hara daro asatara issife Godaa qaalaa tamaarssishenne Wonggelaa odishe Anxookiyan gam77idosona.
But Paul and Barnabas stayed in Antioch, teaching and proclaiming the word of God along with many others.
36 Guutha gallasappe guye Phawuloosi Barnnabaasako, “Nuuni Godaa qaala odida katama ubban nu ammaneysati waanidi de7iyakko guye simmishe xomoosi be7oos” yaagis.
Some time later Paul said to Barnabas, “Let's go back and visit the believers in every town where we shared the word of the Lord, and see how they're doing.”
37 Barnnabaasi Marqqoosa geetettiya Yohaannisa banttara efanaw koyis.
Barnabas planned to take along John Mark too.
38 Shin Phawuloosi Marqqoosa banttara efanaw koyibeenna. Gaasoykka, I Phinfiliyan shaakettidi enttara oothanaw bibeenna.
But Paul didn't think it was a good idea to take him with them, since he'd left them in Pamphylia and hadn't continued working with them.
39 Entta giddon iita ooshshi keyin issoy issuwafe shaakettidosona. Barnnabaasi Marqqoosa ekkidi markkabera Qoophirosa bis.
They had such a strong disagreement that they separated. Barnabas took Mark with him and sailed to Cyprus.
40 Shin Phawuloosi Sillaase dooris; ammaneysati Phawuloosa Xoossaa aadho keehatethaas hadara immidaappe guye i keyidi bis.
Paul chose Silas, and as they left, the believers committed them to the grace of the Lord.
41 Yaatidi, woosa keethata minthethishe Sooriyaranne Kilqiyara aadhdhis.
Paul traveled through Syria and Cilicia, encouraging the churches there.
