¹And Saul, yet breathing of threatening and slaughter to the disciples of the Lord, having gone to the chief priest,

¹Laakiin Sawlos oo weli dhaaranaya inuu cabsiiyo oo dilo xerta Rabbiga, ayuu wuxuu u tegey wadaadkii sare,

²did ask from him letters to Damascus, unto the synagogues, that if he may find any being of the way, both men and women, he may bring them bound to Jerusalem.

²oo weyddiistay warqado uu la tago Dimishaq ilaa sunagogyada, si hadduu helo dadkii Jidka, ha ahaadeen rag ama dumarba, uu iyagoo xidhxidhan Yeruusaalem u keeno.

³And in the going, he came nigh to Damascus, and suddenly there shone round about him a light from the heaven,

³Oo kolkuu sodcaalay, waxaa dhacday inuu Dimishaq u soo dhowaaday; oo dhaqsiba waxaa hareerihiisa ka iftiimay iftiin samada ka yimid.

⁴and having fallen upon the earth, he heard a voice saying to him, `Saul, Saul, why me dost thou persecute?`

⁴Markaasuu dhulka ku dhacay, oo wuxuu maqlay cod isaga ku leh, Sawlosow, Sawlosow, maxaad ii silcinaysaa?

⁵And he said, `Who art thou, Lord?` and the Lord said, `I am Jesus whom thou dost persecute; hard for thee at the pricks to kick;`

⁵Markaasuu ku yidhi, Yaad tahay, Sayidow? Wuxuuna ku yidhi, Waxaan ahay Ciisaha aad silcinaysid;

⁶trembling also, and astonished, he said, `Lord, what dost thou wish me to do?` and the Lord [said] unto him, `Arise, and enter into the city, and it shall be told thee what it behoveth thee to do.`

⁶laakiin kac oo magaalada gal, oo waxaa laguu sheegi doonaa wixii kugu waajib ah inaad samaysid.

⁷And the men who are journeying with him stood speechless, hearing indeed the voice but seeing no one,

⁷Nimankii la sodcaalayayna hadalla'aan bay istaageen, iyagoo codkii maqlaya laakiin aan ninna arkaynin.

⁸and Saul arose from the earth, and his eyes having been opened, he beheld no one, and leading him by the hand they brought him to Damascus,

⁸Markaasaa Sawlos dhulkii ka kacay; markii indhihiisii furmeenna, waxba ma uu arkin; markaasay gacanta ku hageen oo Dimishaq keeneen.

⁹and he was three days without seeing, and he did neither eat nor drink.

⁹Saddex maalmood ayuu aragla'aan joogay, waxbana ma cunin, waxbana ma cabbin.

¹⁰And there was a certain disciple in Damascus, by name Ananias, and the Lord said unto him in a vision, `Ananias;` and he said, `Behold me, Lord;`

¹⁰Haddaba waxaa Dimishaq joogay nin xer ah oo la odhan jiray Ananiyas; oo Rabbigu wuxuu kula hadlay riyo, isagoo ku leh, Ananiyasow. Isna wuxuu ku yidhi, Waa i kan, Rabbiyow.

¹¹and the Lord [saith] unto him, `Having risen, go on unto the street that is called Straight, and seek in the house of Judas, [one] by name Saul of Tarsus, for, lo, he doth pray,

¹¹Markaasaa Rabbigu wuxuu ku yidhi, Kac oo aad jidka la yidhaahdo Toosane, oo waxaad guriga Yuudas ka doontaa nin la yidhaahdo Sawlos oo reer Tarsos ah; oo bal eeg, waa tukanayaaye;

¹²and he saw in a vision a man, by name Ananias, coming in, and putting a hand on him, that he may see again.`

¹²oo wuxuu arkay nin la yidhaahdo Ananiyas isagoo u soo gelaya oo gacmihiisa dul saaraya inuu araggiisii helo.

¹³And Ananias answered, `Lord, I have heard from many about this man, how many evils he did to Thy saints in Jerusalem,

¹³Laakiin Ananiyas baa u jawaabay oo ku yidhi, Rabbiyow, waxaan dad badan ka maqlay ninkanu intuu shar badan u gaystay quduusiintaada Yeruusaalem jooga;

¹⁴and here he hath authority from the chief priests, to bind all those calling on Thy name.`

¹⁴halkanna wuxuu wadaaddada sare ka haystaa amar inuu xidhxidho kuwa magacaaga kuugu yeedha oo dhan.

¹⁵And the Lord said unto him, `Be going on, because a choice vessel to Me is this one, to bear My name before nations and kings — the sons also of Israel;

¹⁵Laakiin Rabbigu wuxuu ku yidhi, Soco, maxaa yeelay, wuxuu ii yahay weel aan doortay inuu magacayga hor geeyo dadka aan Yuhuudda ahayn iyo boqorrada iyo reer binu Israa'iil;

¹⁶for I will shew him how many things it behoveth him for My name to suffer.`

¹⁶maxaa yeelay, waxaan tusi doonaa waxyaalaha waajib ku ah inuu u silco magacaygii dartiis.

¹⁷And Ananias went away, and did enter into the house, and having put upon him [his] hands, said, `Saul, brother, the Lord hath sent me — Jesus who did appear to thee in the way in which thou wast coming — that thou mayest see again, and mayest be filled with the Holy Spirit.`

¹⁷Markaasaa Ananiyas tegey oo gurigii galay, oo intuu gacmihiisa dul saaray, ayuu wuxuu ku yidhi, Walaal Sawlosow, Rabbi Ciise oo kuugu muuqday jidkaad ku timid baa ii soo diray inaad araggaaga heshid iyo in Ruuxa Quduuska ahu kaa buuxsamo.

¹⁸And immediately there fell from his eyes as it were scales, he saw again also presently, and having risen, was baptized,

¹⁸Oo markiiba waxaa indhihiisa ka soo dhacay wax xuubab u eg, wuuna helay araggiisii; markaasuu kacay oo waa la baabtiisay;

¹⁹and having received nourishment, was strengthened, and Saul was with the disciples in Damascus certain days,

¹⁹cunto buuna cunay, waana xoogaystay. Haddaba dhawr maalmood ayuu la joogay xertii Dimishaq joogtay.

²⁰and immediately in the synagogues he was preaching the Christ, that he is the Son of God.

²⁰Oo markiiba sunagogyada dhexdooda ayuu dadka kaga dhex wacdiyey Ciise inuu yahay Wiilka Ilaah.

²¹And all those hearing were amazed, and said, `Is not this he who laid waist in Jerusalem those calling on this name, and hither to this intent had come, that he might bring them bound to the chief priests?`

²¹Dadkii maqlay oo dhammuna waa yaabeen, oo waxay yidhaahdeen, Kanu sow ma aha kii Yeruusaalem ku layn jiray kuwa magacaas ugu yeedhi jiray? Oo sababtaas ayuu halkan u yimid inuu iyagoo xidhxidhan hor keeno wadaaddada sare.

²²And Saul was still more strengthened, and he was confounding the Jews dwelling in Damascus, proving that this is the Christ.

²²Laakiin Sawlos xooggiisii baa u sii kordhay, wuuna wareeriyey Yuhuuddii Dimishaq joogtay isagoo caddaynaya inuu kanu yahay Masiixa.

²³And when many days were fulfilled, the Jews took counsel together to kill him,

²³Oo markii maalmo badan dhaafeen, ayay Yuhuuddu ku tashadeen inay dilaan;

²⁴and their counsel against [him] was known to Saul; they were also watching the gates both day and night, that they may kill him,

²⁴laakiin Sawlos waa ogaaday tashigoodii. Haddaba habeen iyo maalinba irdaha magaalada bay ka fiirin jireen inay dilaan;

²⁵and the disciples having taken him, by night did let him down by the wall, letting down in a basket.

²⁵laakiin xertiisii baa habeen qaadday oo derbiga ka sii daysay iyagoo dambiil ku dejinaya.

²⁶And Saul, having come to Jerusalem, did try to join himself to the disciples, and they were all afraid of him, not believing that he is a disciple,

²⁶Oo kolkuu Yeruusaalem yimid, wuxuu isku dayay inuu xertii ku darsamo; dhammaantoodse waa ka cabsadeen, maxaa yeelay, ma ay rumaysnayn inuu xer yahay.

²⁷and Barnabas having taken him, brought [him] unto the apostles, and did declare to them how in the way he saw the Lord, and that he spake to him, and how in Damascus he was speaking boldly in the name of Jesus.

²⁷Laakiin Barnabas baa kaxeeyey, oo wuxuu u geeyey rasuulladii oo u sheegay siduu Rabbiga ugu arkay jidka, iyo inuu la hadlay, iyo siduu Dimishaq geesinimo ugu wacdiyey magaca Ciise.

²⁸And he was with them, coming in and going out in Jerusalem,

²⁸Markaasuu iyagii la joogay, isagoo la gelaya, kalana baxaya Yeruusaalem, geesinimona dadka ugu wacdiyaya magaca Rabbiga;

²⁹and speaking boldly in the name of the Lord Jesus, he was both speaking and disputing with the Hellenists, and they were taking in hand to kill him,

²⁹wuxuuna la hadlay oo la dooday Yuhuuddii Gariigta ahayd; iyaguse waxay doondooneen inay dilaan.

³⁰and the brethren having known, brought him down to Cesarea, and sent him forth to Tarsus.

³⁰Kolkii walaalihii garteen, waxay keeneen Kaysariya, oo waxay u sii direen Tarsos.

³¹Then, indeed, the assemblies throughout all Judea, and Galilee, and Samaria, had peace, being built up, and, going on in the fear of the Lord, and in the comfort of the Holy Spirit, they were multiplied.

³¹Sidaas darteed kiniisaddii ku tiil Yahuudiya iyo Galili iyo Samaariya oo dhan nabad bay lahayd, waana dhisantay oo badatay iyadoo ku socota cabsida Rabbiga iyo gargaarka Ruuxa Quduuska ah.

³²And it came to pass that Peter passing throughout all [quarters], came down also unto the saints who were dwelling at Lydda,

³²Oo waxaa dhacay intuu Butros marayay dhinacyada oo dhan inuu u yimid quduusiintii Ludda degganayd.

³³and he found there a certain man, Aeneas by name — for eight years laid upon a couch — who was paralytic,

³³Halkaasna wuxuu ka helay nin la odhan jiray Ayne'as, kaas oo siddeed sannadood sariirtiisa jiifay, maxaa yeelay, curyaan buu ahaa.

³⁴and Peter said to him, `Aeneas, heal thee doth Jesus the Christ; arise and spread for thyself;` and immediately he rose,

³⁴Markaasaa Butros wuxuu ku yidhi, Ayne'asow, Ciise Masiix baa ku bogsiinaya; kac oo sariirtaada gogol. Oo markiiba wuu kacay.

³⁵and all those dwelling at Lydda, and Saron saw him, and did turn to the Lord.

³⁵Kuwii Ludda iyo Sharoon degganaana waa arkeen, oo Rabbigay u soo jeesteen.

³⁶And in Joppa there was a certain female disciple, by name Tabitha, (which interpreted, is called Dorcas,) this woman was full of good works and kind acts that she was doing;

³⁶Haddaba waxaa Yaafaa joogi jirtay naag xer ah oo la odhan jiray Tabita taasoo micneheedu yahay Dorkas. Naagtaas waa camal wanaagsanayd, sadaqooyinna waa bixin jirtay.

³⁷and it came to pass in those days she, having ailed, died, and having bathed her, they laid her in an upper chamber,

³⁷Wakhtigaas waxaa dhacday inay bukootay, wayna dhimatay, kolkay maydheenna waxay dhigeen qollad sare.

³⁸and Lydda being nigh to Joppa, the disciples having heard that Peter is in that [place], sent two men unto him, calling on him not to delay to come through unto them.

³⁸Dhowaantii ay Ludda u dhowayd Yaafaa aawadeed, xertii markay maqleen in Butros halkaas joogo, waxay u direen laba nin iyagoo ka baryaya oo leh, Ha ka raagin inaad noo timaadid.

³⁹And Peter having risen, went with them, whom having come, they brought into the upper chamber, and all the widows stood by him weeping, and shewing coats and garments, as many as Dorcas was making while she was with them.

³⁹Markaasaa Butros kacay oo raacay iyagii. Oo kolkuu yimidna, waxay geeyeen qolladdii sare; carmalladii oo dhammina waa ag taagnaayeen iyagoo ooyaya oo tusaya garbageliyaashii iyo dharkii Dorkas samaysay intay la joogi jirtay iyaga.

⁴⁰And Peter having put them all forth without, having bowed the knees, did pray, and having turned unto the body said, `Tabitha, arise;` and she opened her eyes, and having seen Peter, she sat up,

⁴⁰Laakiin Butros baa dhammaantood dibadda u saaray, markaasuu jilba joogsaday oo duceeyey, oo intuu meydka xaggiisa u jeestay ayuu ku yidhi, Tabitay, kac. Markaasay indhihii kala qaadday; oo markay Butros aragtayna way fadhiisatay.

⁴¹and having given her [his] hand, he lifted her up, and having called the saints and the widows, he presented her alive,

⁴¹Markaasuu gacan siiyey oo kiciyey; oo markuu u yeedhay quduusiintii iyo carmalladiiba, iyadoo nool ayuu hor taagay.

⁴²and it became known throughout all Joppa, and many believed on the Lord;

⁴²Taasna waa laga wada ogaaday Yaafaa oo dhan; kuwa badanna waa rumaysteen Rabbiga.Waxaana dhacday inuu maalmo badan Yaafaa la joogay nin la yidhaahdo Simoon oo megdeeye ah.

⁴³and it came to pass, that he remained many days in Joppa, with a certain one, Simon a tanner.

⁴³Waxaana dhacday inuu maalmo badan Yaafaa la joogay nin la yidhaahdo Simoon oo megdeeye ah.
