1 H addaba Feestos markuu soo galay gobolkii, ayuu saddex maalmood dabadeed Kaysariya ka tegey, oo wuxuu aaday Yeruusaalem.

Now when Festus had entered into his own province, after three days he went up from Caesarea to Jerusalem.

2 M arkaasaa wadaaddadii sare iyo raggii Yuhuudda u waaweynaa waxay isagii u sheegeen wax Bawlos ka gees ah, wayna baryeen

And the chief priests and the principal men of the Jews laid charges before him against Paul, and they kept begging and urging him,

3 o o axsaan ka weyddiisteen inuu isaga Yeruusaalem u soo diro; iyagoo shirqool u dhigaya inay jidka ku dilaan.

Asking as a favor that he would have him brought to Jerusalem; they were planning an ambush to slay him on the way.

4 H abase yeeshee Feestos wuxuu ugu jawaabay in Bawlos lagu dhawrayo Kaysariya, iyo in isaga qudhiisuba dhaqsiyo halkaas u aadayo.

Festus answered that Paul was in custody in Caesarea and that he himself planned to leave for there soon.

5 O o wuxuu ku yidhi, Haddaba kuwa idinku jira oo amarka lahu aniga ha ila tageen, oo haddii ninkaasu wax qallooc ah leeyahay, iyagu ha dacweeyeen isaga.

So, said he, let those who are in a position of authority and are influential among you go down with me, and if there is anything amiss or criminal about the man, let them so charge him.

6 O o markuu iyagii dhex joogay in aan ka badnayn siddeed ama toban maalmood, ayuu wuxuu aaday Kaysariya, kolkaasuu maalintii dambe fadhiistay kursigii xukumaadda, oo wuxuu amray in Bawlos la keeno.

So when Festus had remained among them not more than eight or ten days, he went down to Caesarea, took his seat the next day on the judgment bench, and ordered Paul to be brought before him.

7 O o kolkuu yimid, Yuhuuddii Yeruusaalem ka timid ayaa hareerihiisii soo istaagtay, oo waxay keeneen dacwooyin badan oo waaweyn, oo ayan iyagu xaqiijin karin.

And when he arrived, the Jews who had come down from Jerusalem stood all around him, bringing many grave accusations against him which they were not able to prove.

8 M arkii Bawlos isdaafacayay, ayuu wuxuu yidhi, Anigu innaba kuma dembaabin sharciga Yuhuudda ama macbudka iyo Kaysar toona.

Paul declared in defense, Neither against the Law of the Jews, nor against the temple, nor against Caesar have I offended in any way.

9 L aakiin Feestos isagoo doonaya inuu Yuhuudda kaga farxiyo, ayuu wuxuu ku jawaabay oo Bawlos ku yidhi, Ma doonaysaa inaad Yeruusaalem tagto oo waxyaalahan halkaas hortayda lagugu xukumo?

But Festus, wishing to ingratiate himself with the Jews, answered Paul, Are you willing to go up to Jerusalem and there be put on trial '> before the Jewish Sanhedrin] in my presence concerning these charges?

10 L aakiin Bawlos wuxuu yidhi, Anigu waxaan hor taaganahay kursigii xukumaadda oo Kaysar; halkanay igu waajib tahay in laygu xukumo. Anigu Yuhuudda innaba xumaan kuma aan samayn, sidaad aad ugu og tahay.

But Paul replied, I am standing before Caesar’s judgment seat, where I ought to be tried. To the Jews I have done no wrong, as you know better.

11 H addaba haddii aan xumaan falay oo aan galay wax dhimasho istaahila, geeri diidi maayo; laakiin waxyaalahan ay kuwanu igu dacwaynayaan haddii aan wax run ah lagu arag, ninna iima gacangelin karo iyaga. Waxaan u ashtakoonayaa Kaysar.

If then I am a wrongdoer and a criminal and have committed anything for which I deserve to die, I do not beg off and seek to escape death; but if there is no ground for their accusations against me, no one can give me up and make a present of me '> give me up freely] to them. I appeal to Caesar.

12 M arkaasaa Feestos, markuu shirka la tashaday, ayuu wuxuu ku jawaabay, Kaysar baad u ashtakootay; Kaysar baad u tegaysaa. Agribba Iyo Bernikee

Then Festus, when he had consulted with the '> men who formed his] council, answered, You have appealed to Caesar; to Caesar you shall go.

13 H addaba kolkii dhawr maalmood la soo dhaafay ayaa waxaa Kaysariya yimid oo Feestos soo salaamay boqor Agribba iyo Bernikee.

Now after an interval of some days, Agrippa the king and Bernice arrived at Caesarea to pay their respects to Festus.

14 O o kolkii ay maalmo badan halkaas joogeen ayaa Feestos wuxuu boqorkii hor dhigay dacwadii Bawlos, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Waxaa jira nin Feelikos ka tegey isagoo maxbuus ah;

And while they remained there for many days, Festus acquainted the king with Paul’s case, telling him, There is a man left a prisoner in chains by Felix;

15 k aasoo waagii aan Yeruusaalem joogay ay wadaaddadii sare iyo waayeelladii Yuhuuddu igu soo dacweeyeen iyagoo doonaya in la xukumo isagii.

And when I was at Jerusalem, the chief priests and the elders of the Jews informed me about him, petitioning for a judicial hearing and condemnation of him.

16 I yagii waxaan ugu jawaabay oo ku idhi, Ma aha caadada reer Rooma in ninna xukumaad loo dhiibo intaan mudduciyaasha layska hor keenin muddacalayga oo la siin fursad uu isaga daafaco xaalka lagu ashtakeeyey.

But I replied to them that it was not the custom of the Romans to give up freely any man for punishment before the accused had met the accusers face to face and had opportunity to defend himself concerning the charge brought against him.

17 H addaba markii ay halkan wada yimaadeen, anigu innaba siima aan raagin ee maalintii dambe ayaan waxaan ku fadhiistay kursigii xukumaadda, oo waxaan amray in ninka la keeno.

So when they came here together, I did not delay, but on the morrow took my place on the judgment seat and ordered that the man be brought before me.

18 L aakiin markii ay mudduciyaashii istaageen, ma ay keenin innaba wax xumaan ah oo u eg wixii aan filanayay;

when the accusers stood up, they brought forward no accusation of any such misconduct as I was expecting.

19 l aakiin waxay lahaayeen su'aalo isaga ka gees ah oo ku saabsan diintooda iyo mid Ciise la odhan jiray oo dhintay, laakiin Bawlos leeyahay inuu nool yahay.

Instead they had some points of controversy with him about their own religion or superstition and concerning one Jesus, Who had died but Whom Paul kept asserting to be alive.

20 H addaba anigoo ka shakiyaya sidii aan waxyaalahan u sii haybin lahaa, ayaan waxaan isagii weyddiistay bal inuu Yeruusaalem tegayo oo meeshaas lagu xukumo waxyaalahan iyo in kale.

And I, being puzzled to know how to make inquiries into such questions, asked whether he would be willing to go to Jerusalem and there be tried regarding them.

21 L aakiin markii Bawlos doonayay in la sii hayo ilaa boqorku gar gooyo, waxaan amray in la sii hayo ilaa aan isaga Kaysar u diro.

But when Paul had appealed to have his case retained for examination and decision by the emperor, I ordered that he be detained until I could send him to Caesar.

22 M arkaasaa Agribba wuxuu Feestos ku yidhi, Aniguba waxaan jeclaan lahaa inaan ninka maqlo. Markaasuu yidhi, Berritaad maqlaysaa.

Then Agrippa said to Festus, I also desire to hear the man myself. Tomorrow, replied, you shall hear him.

23 S idaas daraaddeed maalintii dambe ayaa Agribba iyo Bernikee waxay la yimaadeen bandhig weyn, oo waxay soo galeen maxkamaddii, iyaga iyo nimankii sare iyo raggii magaalada ugu waaweynaa. Markaasaa Feestos wuxuu amray in Bawlos loo keeno.

So the next day Agrippa and Bernice approached with great display, and they went into the audience hall accompanied by the military commandants and the prominent citizens of the city. At the order of Festus Paul was brought in.

24 M arkaasaa Feestos wuxuu yidhi, Boqor Agribba iyo ragga kale oo halkan nala jooga oo dhammow, waxaad arkaysaan ninkan Yuhuudda badan oo dhammu ay iiga soo cabteen Yeruusaalem iyo halkanba, iyagoo ku qaylinaya, Waajib ma aha in ninkanu sii noolaado.

Then Festus said, King Agrippa and all the men present with us, you see this man about whom the whole Jewish people came to me and complained, both at Jerusalem and here, insisting and shouting that he ought not to live any longer.

25 L aakiin waxaan ogaaday inuusan samayn innaba wax dhimasho istaahila; oo isaga qudhiisuba wuxuu u ashtakooday boqorka, sidaas daraaddeed waxaan goostay inaan isaga diro.

But I found nothing that he had done deserving of death. Still, as he himself appealed to the emperor, I determined to send him to Rome.

26 H addaba anigu ma hayo wax xaqiiqa ah oo ninkan ku saabsan oo aan sayidkayga u qoro. Sidaas daraaddeed ayaan isaga hortiinna u keenay, iyo khusuusan adiga hortaada, boqor Agribbow, in kolkii loo imtixaamo dabadeed aan helo wax aan qoro.

I have nothing in particular and definite to write to my lord concerning him. So I have brought him before all of you, and especially before you, King Agrippa, so that after examination has been made, I may have something to put in writing.

27 W aayo, waxay ila eg tahay caqliyaraan in maxbuus la diro iyadoo aan aad loo xaqiijin wixii lagu ashtakeeyey.

For it seems to me senseless and absurd to send a prisoner and not state the accusations against him.
