¹And having passed through Amphipolis, and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where was the synagogue of the Jews,

¹Haddaba markay sii dhex mareen Amfibolis iyo Abollooniya ayay waxay yimaadeen Tesaloniika meeshaas oo sunagogga Yuhuuddu ahaa;

²and according to the custom of Paul, he went in unto them, and for three sabbaths he was reasoning with them from the Writings,

²oo Bawlos sidii caadadiisu ahayd, ayuu iyagii u galay, oo saddex sabtiyoodna ayuu Qorniinka kala hadlay,

³opening and alleging, `That the Christ it behoved to suffer, and to rise again out of the dead, and that this is the Christ — Jesus whom I proclaim to you.`

³isagoo caddaynaya oo muujinaya inay waajib ahayd in Masiixu silco oo ka soo sara kaco kuwii dhintay, wuxuuna yidhi, Ciisahan aan idinku wacdiyey waa Masiixa.

⁴And certain of them did believe, and attached themselves to Paul and to Silas, also of the worshipping Greeks a great multitude, of the principal women also not a few.

⁴Oo waxaa la rumaysiiyey oo Bawlos iyo Silas isku daray qaar iyaga ka mid ah oo ahaa Gariig fara badan oo cibaadaysan iyo dumarka madaxda ah oo aan fara yarayn.

⁵And the unbelieving Jews, having been moved with envy, and having taken to them of the loungers certain evil men, and having made a crowd, were setting the city in an uproar; having assailed also the house of Jason, they were seeking them to bring [them] to the populace,

⁵Laakiin Yuhuuddii oo ka masayrsan ayaa nimanka suuqa ka soo kaxaysatay kuwo shar leh, urur bayna isu keeneen, oo magaaladii bay buuq ka dhigeen; oo markay gurigii Yasoon weerareen ayay waxay dooneen inay iyagii dadka u soo saaraan.

⁶and not having found them, they drew Jason and certain brethren unto the city rulers, calling aloud — `These, having put the world in commotion, are also here present,

⁶Oo markay waayeen, ayay Yasoon iyo kuwo walaalo ah ku hor jiideen taliyayaashii magaalada iyagoo ku qaylinaya oo leh, Kuwii dunida rogay ayaa halkanna yimid,

⁷whom Jason hath received; and these all do contrary to the decrees of Caesar, saying another to be king — Jesus.`

⁷iyagoo uu Yasoon martiggeliyey; kuwaas oo dhanna waxay falaan wax ka gees ah amarrada Kaysar, iyagoo leh, Waxaa jira boqor kale oo Ciise ah.

⁸And they troubled the multitude and the city rulers, hearing these things,

⁸Markaasay dhib geliyeen dadkii badnaa iyo taliyayaashii magaalada oo waxyaalahaas maqlay.

⁹and having taking security from Jason and the rest, they let them go.

⁹Oo kolkay Yasoon iyo kuwii kale dammiin ka qaadeen, ayay sii daayeen.

¹⁰And the brethren immediately, through the night, sent forth both Paul and Silas to Berea, who having come, went to the synagogue of the Jews;

¹⁰Oo markiiba walaalihii waxay habeennimo Bawlos iyo Silas u direen Beroya, kuwaas oo kolkay meeshaas yimaadeen galay sunagogga Yuhuudda.

¹¹and these were more noble than those in Thessalonica, they received the word with all readiness of mind, every day examining the Writings whether those things were so;

¹¹Haddaba kuwaasu waa ka sharaf badnaayeen kuwii Tesaloniika joogay, maxaa yeelay, ereygay aqbaleen iyagoo xiiso weyn u qaba oo maalin kasta baadhaya Qorniinka inay hubsadaan waxyaalahaasi inay sidaas yihiin iyo in kale.

¹²many, indeed, therefore, of them did believe, and of the honourable Greek women and men not a few.

¹²Sidaas darteed kuwa badan oo iyaga ka mid ah baa rumaystay iyo dumar Gariig ah oo sharaf leh iyo niman aan fara yarayn.

¹³And when the Jews from Thessalonica knew that also in Berea was the word of God declared by Paul, they came thither also, agitating the multitudes;

¹³Laakiin kolkii Yuhuuddii Tesaloniika joogtay ogaatay in Bawlos ereyga Ilaah Beroya ku wacdiyey, ayay meeshaasna yimaadeen oo qas iyo dhib geliyeen dadkii badnaa.

¹⁴and then immediately the brethren sent forth Paul, to go on as it were to the sea, but both Silas and Timothy were remaining there.

¹⁴Markaasaa walaalihii kolkiiba Bawlos u direen inuu tago ilaa badda; Silas iyo Timoteyosna halkaasay weli joogeen.

¹⁵And those conducting Paul, brought him unto Athens, and having received a command unto Silas and Timotheus that with all speed they may come unto him, they departed;

¹⁵Laakiin kuwii Bawlos ambabbixiyey waxay isagii keeneen ilaa Ateenay; markaasay ka tageen iyagoo Silas iyo Timoteyos amar u qaadaya inay degdeg u yimaadaan.

¹⁶and Paul waiting for them in Athens, his spirit was stirred in him, beholding the city wholly given to idolatry,

¹⁶Haddaba Bawlos intuu Ateenay ku sugayay iyagii, ruuxiisu waa kacay markuu arkay magaalada oo sanamyo ka buuxaan.

¹⁷therefore, indeed, he was reasoning in the synagogue with the Jews, and with the worshipping persons, and in the market-place every day with those who met with him.

¹⁷Saas daraaddeed ayuu Yuhuuddii iyo nimankii cibaadaysnaa kula xaajooday sunagogga, suuqa dhexdiisana ayuu maalin walba kula xaajooday kuwii kula kulmayba.

¹⁸And certain of the Epicurean and of the Stoic philosophers, were meeting together to see him, and some were saying, `What would this seed picker wish to say?` and others, `Of strange demons he doth seem to be an announcer;` because Jesus and the rising again he did proclaim to them as good news,

¹⁸Waxaana la kulmay isagii kuwo ka mid ah faylosuufiinta Ebikuriyiin iyo Istoo'ikiin ah. Qaar baa waxay yidhaahdeen, Ninkan dawdarka ihi muxuu odhan doonaa? Qaar kalena waxay yidhaahdeen, Wuxuu u eg yahay nin ilaahyo qalaad wax ka sheega; maxaa yeelay, wuxuu dadkii ku wacdiyey Ciise iyo sarakicidda.

¹⁹having also taken him, unto the Areopagus they brought [him], saying, `Are we able to know what [is] this new teaching that is spoken by thee,

¹⁹Markaasay isagii qabteen, oo waxay u kaxeeyeen Are'obagos iyagoo ku leh, Ma ogaan karnaa waxay tahay waxbariddan cusub oo aad ku hadlaysid?

²⁰for certain strange things thou dost bring to our ears? we wish, then, to know what these things would wish to be;`

²⁰Waayo, waxaad dhegahayaga maqashiisaa waxyaalo qalaad. Sidaa darteed waxaannu doonaynaa inaannu ogaanno waxyaalahanu waxay yihiin.

²¹and all Athenians, and the strangers sojourning, for nothing else were at leisure but to say something, and to hear some newer thing.

²¹(Haddaba reer Ateenay oo dhammi iyo dadkii qalaad oo halkaas degganaa, wakhtigooda wax kale kuma ay dhaafin inay sheegaan ama maqlaan wax cusub mooyaane.)

²²And Paul, having stood in the midst of the Areopagus, said, `Men, Athenians, in all things I perceive you as over-religious;

²²Markaasaa Bawlos oo Are'obagos dhex taagan wuxuu yidhi, Nimankiinan reer Ateenay ahow, wax kasta waxaan idinku garanayaa inaad tihiin kuwo ilaahyada ka cabsada.

²³for passing through and contemplating your objects of worship, I found also an erection on which had been inscribed: To God — unknown; whom, therefore — not knowing — ye do worship, this One I announce to you.

²³Waayo, markaan soo socday oo aan arkay waxyaalaha aad caabuddaan waxaan soo arkay oo kale meel allabari oo lagu qoray, Waxaa leh ilaah aan la oqoon. Haddaba waxaad oqoonla'aanta ku caabuddaan ayaan wax idiinka sheegayaa.

²⁴`God, who did make the world, and all things in it, this One, of heaven and of earth being Lord, in temples made with hands doth not dwell,

²⁴Ilaaha sameeyey dunida iyo waxyaalaha ku jira oo dhanba, oo ah Rabbiga samada iyo dhulka, ma deggana macbudyo gacmo lagu sameeyey,

²⁵neither by the hands of men is He served — needing anything, He giving to all life, and breath, and all things;

²⁵gacmo dadna looguma adeego sidii isagoo wax u baahan, maxaa yeelay, dhammaan isagaa siiya nolosha iyo neefta iyo wax walbaba;

²⁶He made also of one blood every nation of men, to dwell upon all the face of the earth — having ordained times before appointed, and the bounds of their dwellings —

²⁶oo quruun kasta oo bini-aadmi ah ayuu isaga mid dhigay inay dunida dusheeda oo dhan degganaadaan isagoo gooyay xilliyaduu hore u diyaarshay iyo xadadka degmooyinkooda;

²⁷to seek the Lord, if perhaps they did feel after Him and find, — though, indeed, He is not far from each one of us,

²⁷inay Ilaah doondoonaan, in hadday suurtowdo ay haabhaabtaan oo ay helaan isaga, in kastoo uusan ka fogayn midkeen kasta;

²⁸for in Him we live, and move, and are; as also certain of your poets have said: For of Him also we are offspring.

²⁸maxaa yeelay, isagaynu ku nool nahay, kuna soconnaa, kuna jirnaa; sidaasoo kuwo ka mid ah gabayayaashiinnu ay yidhaahdeen, Weliba innaguna waxaynu nahay farcankiisa.

²⁹`Being, therefore, offspring of God, we ought not to think the Godhead to be like to gold, or silver, or stone, graving of art and device of man;

²⁹Haddaba innagoo ah Ilaah farcankiis waa inaynaan ka fikirin in Ilaahnimadu ay la mid tahay dahab ama lacag ama dhagax oo lagu xardhay sancada iyo farsamada dadka.

³⁰the times, indeed, therefore, of the ignorance God having overlooked, doth now command all men everywhere to reform,

³⁰Haddaba wakhtiyadii oqoonla'aanta Ilaah baa dhaafay, laakiin hadda wuxuu dadka ku amrayaa in dhammaantood meel kastaba ha joogeene ay soo toobad keenaan;

³¹because He did set a day in which He is about to judge the world in righteousness, by a man whom He did ordain, having given assurance to all, having raised him out of the dead.`

³¹maxaa yeelay, wuxuu dhigay maalin uu dunida si xaq ah ugu xukumi doono ninkuu doortay, taasoo uu dhammaan ugu caddeeyey sarakicidda uu isagii ka soo sara kiciyey kuwii dhintay.

³²And having heard of a rising again of the dead, some, indeed, were mocking, but others said, `We will hear thee again concerning this;`

³²Haddaba kolkay maqleen wax ku saabsan ka soo sarakicidda kuwii dhintay, qaar waa ku qosleen, laakiin qaar kale waxay yidhaahdeen, Mar kale ayaannu waxan kaa maqli doonnaa.

³³and so Paul went forth from the midst of them,

³³Haddaba Bawlos waa ka dhex tegey iyagii.Laakiin niman baa raacay isagii oo rumaystay; kuwaasoo ay ka mid ahaayeen Diyonusiyos ki Are'obagos, iyo haweenay la odhan jiray Damaris, iyo kuwo kale oo la socdayba.

³⁴and certain men having cleaved to him, did believe, among whom [is] also Dionysius the Areopagite, and a woman, by name Damaris, and others with them.

³⁴Laakiin niman baa raacay isagii oo rumaystay; kuwaasoo ay ka mid ahaayeen Diyonusiyos ki Are'obagos, iyo haweenay la odhan jiray Damaris, iyo kuwo kale oo la socdayba.
