¹Peter and John were going up into the temple at the hour of prayer, the ninth hour 3:00 PM .

¹ጴጥሮስና ዮሐንስም በጸሎት ጊዜ በዘጠኝ ሰዓት ወደ መቅደስ ይወጡ ነበር።

²A certain man who was lame from his mother’s womb was being carried, whom they laid daily at the door of the temple which is called Beautiful, to ask gifts for the needy of those who entered into the temple.

²ወደ መቅደስም ከሚገቡት ምጽዋት ይለምን ዘንድ፥ ሰዎች ተሸክመው መልካም በሚሉአት በመቅደስ ደጅ በየቀኑ ያስቀምጡት የነበሩ ከእናቱ ማኅፀን ጀምሮ አንካሳ የሆነ አንድ ሰው ነበረ።

³Seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple, he asked to receive gifts for the needy.

³እርሱም ጴጥሮስና ዮሐንስ ወደ መቅደስ ሊገቡ እንዳላቸው ባየ ጊዜ፥ ምጽዋትን ለመናቸው።

⁴Peter, fastening his eyes on him, with John, said, “Look at us.”

⁴ጴጥሮስም ከዮሐንስ ጋር ትኵር ብሎ ወደ እርሱ ተመልክቶ። ወደ እኛ ተመልከት አለው።

⁵He listened to them, expecting to receive something from them.

⁵እርሱም አንድ ነገር ከእነርሱ እንዲቀበል ሲጠብቅ ወደ እነርሱ ተመለከተ።

⁶But Peter said, “Silver and gold have I none, but what I have, that I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, get up and walk!”

⁶ጴጥሮስ ግን። ብርና ወርቅ የለኝም፤ ይህን ያለኝን ግን እሰጥሃለሁ፤ በናዝሬቱ በኢየሱስ ክርስቶስ ስም ተነሣና ተመላለስ አለው።

⁷He took him by the right hand, and raised him up. Immediately his feet and his ankle bones received strength.

⁷በቀኝ እጁም ይዞ አስነሣው፤ በዚያን ጊዜም እግሩና ቍርጭምጭምቱ ጸና፥

⁸Leaping up, he stood, and began to walk. He entered with them into the temple, walking, leaping, and praising God.

⁸ወደ ላይ ዘሎም ቆመ፥ ይመላለስም ጀመር፤ እየተመላለሰም እየዘለለም እግዚአብሔርንም እያመሰገነ ከእነርሱ ጋር ወደ መቅደስ ገባ።

⁹All the people saw him walking and praising God.

⁹ሕዝቡም ሁሉ እግዚአብሔርን እያመሰገነ ሲመላለስ አዩት፤

¹⁰They recognized him, that it was he who used to sit begging for gifts for the needy at the Beautiful Gate of the temple. They were filled with wonder and amazement at what had happened to him.

¹⁰መልካምም በሚሉአት በመቅደስ ደጅ ስለ ምጽዋት ተቀምጦ የነበረው እርሱ እንደ ሆነ አወቁት፤ በእርሱም ከሆነው የተነሣ መደነቅና መገረም ሞላባቸው።

¹¹As the lame man who was healed held on to Peter and John, all the people ran together to them in the porch that is called Solomon’s, greatly wondering.

¹¹እርሱም ጴጥሮስንና ዮሐንስን ይዞ ሳለ፥ ሕዝቡ ሁሉ እየተደነቁ የሰሎሞን ደጅ መመላለሻ በሚባለው አብረው ወደ እነርሱ ሮጡ።

¹²When Peter saw it, he responded to the people, “You men of Israel, why do you marvel at this man? Why do you fasten your eyes on us, as though by our own power or godliness we had made him walk?

¹²ጴጥሮስም አይቶ ለሕዝቡ እንዲህ ሲል መለሰ። የእስራኤል ሰዎች ሆይ፥ በዚህ ስለ ምን ትደነቃላችሁ? ወይስ በገዛ ኃይላችን ወይስ እግዚአብሔርን በመፍራታችን ይህ ይመላለስ ዘንድ እንዳደረግነው ስለ ምን ትኵር ብላችሁ ታዩናላችሁ?

¹³The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the God of our fathers, has glorified his Servant Jesus, whom you delivered up, and denied in the presence of Pilate, when he had determined to release him.

¹³የአብርሀምና የይስሐቅ የያዕቆብም አምላክ፥ የአባቶቻችን አምላክ፥ እናንተ አሳልፋችሁ የሰጣችሁትንና ሊፈታው ቈርጦ ሳለ በጲላጦስ ፊት የካዳችሁትን ብላቴናውን ኢየሱስን አከበረው።

¹⁴But you denied the Holy and Righteous One, and asked for a murderer to be granted to you,

¹⁴እናንተ ግን ቅዱሱን ጻድቁንም ክዳችሁ ነፍሰ ገዳዩን ሰው ይሰጣችሁ ዘንድ ለመናችሁ፥

¹⁵and killed the Prince of life, whom God raised from the dead, to which we are witnesses.

¹⁵የሕይወትንም ራስ ገደላችሁት፤ እርሱን ግን እግዚአብሔር ከሙታን አስነሣው፥ ለዚህም ነገር እኛ ምስክሮች ነን።

¹⁶By faith in his name, his name has made this man strong, whom you see and know. Yes, the faith which is through him has given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all.

¹⁶በስሙም በማመን ይህን የምታዩትንና የምታውቁትን የእርሱ ስም አጸናው፥ በእርሱም በኩል የሆነው እምነት በሁላችሁ ፊት ይህን ፍጹም ጤና ሰጠው።

¹⁷“Now, brothers The word for “brothers” here may be also correctly translated “brothers and sisters” or “siblings.” , I know that you did this in ignorance, as did also your rulers.

¹⁷አሁንም፥ ወንድሞቼ ሆይ፥ እናንተ እንደ አለቆቻችሁ ደግሞ ባለማወቅ እንዳደረጋችሁት አውቄአለሁ፤

¹⁸But the things which God announced by the mouth of all his prophets, that Christ should suffer, he thus fulfilled.

¹⁸እግዚአብሔር ግን ክርስቶስ መከራ እንዲቀበል አስቀድሞ በነቢያት ሁሉ አፍ የተናገረውን እንዲሁ ፈጸመው።

¹⁹“Repent therefore, and turn again, that your sins may be blotted out, so that there may come times of refreshing from the presence of the Lord,

¹⁹እንግዲህ ከጌታ ፊት የመጽናናት ዘመን እንድትመጣላችሁ አስቀድሞም ለእናንተ የመረጠውን ኢየሱስ ክርስቶስን እንዲልክላችሁ፥ ኃጢአታችሁ ይደመሰስ ዘንድ ንስሐ ግቡ ተመለሱም።

²⁰and that he may send Christ Jesus, who was ordained for you before,

²¹እግዚአብሔር ከጥንት ጀምሮ በቅዱሳን ነቢያቱ አፍ የተናገረው፥ ነገር ሁሉ እስከሚታደስበት ዘመን ድረስ ሰማይ ይቀበለው ዘንድ ይገባልና።

²¹whom heaven must receive until the times of restoration of all things, which God spoke long ago by the mouth of his holy prophets.

²²ሙሴም ለአባቶች። ጌታ አምላክ እኔን እንዳስነሣኝ ነቢይን ከወንድሞቻችሁ ያስነሣላችኋል፤ በሚነግራችሁ ሁሉ እርሱን ስሙት።

²²For Moses indeed said to the fathers, ‘The Lord God will raise up a prophet for you from among your brothers, like me. You shall listen to him in all things whatever he says to you.

²³ያንም ነቢይ የማትሰማው ነፍስ ሁሉ ከሕዝብ ተለይታ ትጠፋለች አለ።

²³It will be, that every soul that will not listen to that prophet will be utterly destroyed from among the people.’ Deuteronomy 18:15,18-19

²⁴ሁለተኛም ከሳሙኤል ጀምሮ ከእርሱም በኋላ የተናገሩት ነቢያት ሁሉ ደግሞ ስለዚህ ወራት ተናገሩ።

²⁴Yes, and all the prophets from Samuel and those who followed after, as many as have spoken, they also told of these days.

²⁵እናንተ የነቢያት ልጆችና እግዚአብሔር ለአብርሃም። በዘርህ የምድር ወገኖች ሁሉ ይባረካሉ ብሎ፥ ከአባቶቻችን ጋር ያደረገው የኪዳን ልጆች ናችሁ።

²⁵You are the children of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying to Abraham, ‘In your seed will all the families of the earth be blessed.’ Genesis 22:18; 26:4

²⁶ለእናንተ አስቀድሞ እግዚአብሔር ብላቴናውን አስነሥቶ፥ እያንዳንዳችሁን ከክፋታችሁ እየመለሰ ይባርካችሁ ዘንድ፥ ሰደደው።

²⁶God, having raised up his servant, Jesus, sent him to you first, to bless you, in turning away everyone of you from your wickedness.”
