< Acts 28 >
1 Once we were safely ashore, we learned that the island was called Malta.
Sa'adda muka sauka lafiya, sai muka ji cewa sunan tsibirin Malita.
2 The islanders showed us extraordinary kindness. They kindled a fire and welcomed all of us because it was raining and cold.
Mutanen garin sun nuna mana alheri matuka don sun hura wuta don mu ji dimi, saboda ruwan sama da sanyin da ake yi.
3 Paul gathered a bundle of sticks, and as he laid them on the fire, a viper, driven out by the heat, fastened itself to his hand.
Amma sa'adda Bulus ya tara kiraruwa don hura wuta, sai maciji saboda zafin wuta, ya fito ya nade hannuwansa.
4 When the islanders saw the creature hanging from his hand, they said to one another, “Surely this man is a murderer. Although he was saved from the sea, Justice has not allowed him to live.”
Da mazaunan garin suka ga maciji ya nade hannuwansa, sai suka cema junansu, “Ba shakka wannan mutumin mai kisan kai ne, koda shike ya tsira daga Teku, sharia baza ta barshi da rai ba”.
5 But Paul shook the creature off into the fire and suffered no ill effects.
Amma ya karkade macijin cikin wuta ba tare da ya cutar da shi ba.
6 The islanders were expecting him to swell up or suddenly drop dead. But after waiting a long time and seeing nothing unusual happen to him, they changed their minds and said he was a god.
Sun saurara su gani ko zai kumbura ko ya fadi matacce. Amma da suka jira dan lokaci basu ga wata matsala ta same shi ba sai suka canza tunaninsu sukace shi wani allah ne.
7 Nearby stood an estate belonging to Publius, the chief official of the island. He welcomed us and entertained us hospitably for three days.
A kusa da wannan wurin tsibirin akwai wasu gonakin wani babban mutumin tsibirin, mai suna Babiliyas. Ya karbe mu ya biya bukatun mu har kwana uku.
8 The father of Publius was sick in bed, suffering from fever and dysentery. Paul went in to see him, and after praying and placing his hands on him, he healed the man.
Ana nan ashe mahaifin Babiliyas yana fama da zazzabi da atuni. Bulus ya shiga, yayi masa addu'a, ya dibiya masa hannu, ya sami warkarwa.
9 After this had happened, the rest of the sick on the island came and were cured as well.
Sa'adda wannan ya faru, sauran marasa lafiya da ke tsibirin sun zo sun sami warkarwa.
10 The islanders honored us in many ways and supplied our needs when we were ready to sail.
Mutanen sun mutunta mu kwarai. Yayin da muke shirin tafiya, sun bamu duk abinda muke bukata.
11 After three months we set sail in an Alexandrian ship that had wintered in the island. It had the Twin Brothers as a figurehead.
Bayan watanni uku, mun shiga jirgin Iskandariya wanda tun da hunturu yake a tsibirin mai zane kamannin Tagwaye Maza.
12 Putting in at Syracuse, we stayed there three days.
Bayan saukar mu a birnin Sirakus, mun yi kwana uku a wurin.
13 From there we weighed anchor and came to Rhegium. After one day, a south wind came up, and on the second day we arrived at Puteoli.
Daga nan sai muka tafi, har muka zo birnin Rigiyum. Bayan kwana daya iska mai karfi daga kudu ta taso, a cikin kwana biyu muka iso Butiyoli.
14 There we found some brothers who invited us to spend the week with them. And so we came to Rome.
A can muka iske wasu 'yan'uwa suka roke mu mu zauna tare da su har kwana bakwai. Ta wannan hanyar ce muka zo Roma.
15 The brothers there had heard about us and traveled as far as the Forum of Appius and the Three Taverns to meet us. When Paul saw them, he was encouraged and gave thanks to God.
Daga can da 'yan'uwa suka ji labarin mu, suka fito don su tarbe mu tun daga Kasuwar Abiyas da kuma Rumfuna Uku. Da Bulus ya gan su, ya yi wa Allah godiya ya kuma sami karfafawa.
16 When we arrived in Rome, Paul was permitted to stay by himself, with a soldier to guard him.
Sa'adda muka shiga Roma, aka yardar wa Bulus ya zauna shi kadai tare da sojan da ke tsaronsa.
17 After three days, he called together the leaders of the Jews. When they had gathered, he said to them, “Brothers, although I have done nothing against our people or the customs of our fathers, I was taken prisoner in Jerusalem and handed over to the Romans.
Ana nan bayan kwana uku, Bulus ya kira shugabannin Yahudawa. Bayan da suka taru, sai ya ce masu, “Yan'uwa, ko da shike ban yi wa kowa laifi ko keta al'adun Ubanninmu ba, duk da haka an bashe ni daurarre tun daga Urushalima zuwa ga hannunwan mutanen Roma.
18 They examined me and wanted to release me, because there was no basis for a death sentence against me.
Bayan tuhumata, sun yi kudirin saki na, domin ban yi laifin da ya cancanci mutuwa ba.
19 But when the Jews objected, I was compelled to appeal to Caesar, even though I have no charge to bring against my nation.
Amma da Yahudawa suka tsaya a kan ra'ayin su, ya zama dole in daukaka kara zuwa ga Kaisar, ba domin ina da wani dalilin da zan yi karar al'ummata ba ne.
20 So for this reason I have called to see you and speak with you. It is because of the hope of Israel that I am bound with this chain.”
Saboda wannan ne na bukaci ganinku in yi magana da ku. Saboda begen da Isra'ila suke da shi ya sa nake daure da wannan sarkar”.
21 The leaders replied, “We have not received any letters about you from Judea, nor have any of the brothers from there reported or even mentioned anything bad about you.
Sai suka ce masa, “Bamu karbi wasiku daga Yahudiya game da kai ba, babu kuma wani daga cikin 'yan'uwa wanda ya kawo mana wani rahoto ko wata magana game da kai.
22 But we consider your views worth hearing, because we know that people everywhere are speaking against this sect.”
Amma muna so mu ji daga gare ka abin da kayi tunani ka kuma gani game da wannan darikar, gama mun sani ana kushenta a ko'ina.”
23 So they set a day to meet with Paul, and many people came to the place he was staying. He expounded to them from morning to evening, testifying about the kingdom of God and persuading them about Jesus from the Law of Moses and the Prophets.
Sa'adda suka sa masa rana, mutane da dama suka same shi a masaukinsa. Ya gabatarda zantattukan a gare su, yana tabbatar da bayyanuwar mulkin Allah. Har ya nemi ya rinjaye su a kan zancen Yesu, tun daga attaurat ta Musa zuwa litattafan annabawa, ya yi wannan tun daga safiya har yamma.
24 Some of them were convinced by what he said, but others refused to believe.
Wasu sun kawar da shakkar abin da aka fada, amma wadansu basu gaskanta ba.
25 They disagreed among themselves and began to leave after Paul had made this final statement: “The Holy Spirit was right when He spoke to your fathers through Isaiah the prophet:
Da shike ba su yarda da junansu ba, sai suka tafi bayan da Bulus ya fadi kalma daya, “Ruhu Mai Tsarki ya yi magana ta bakin annabi Ishaya zuwa ga kakanninku.
26 ‘Go to this people and say, “You will be ever hearing but never understanding; you will be ever seeing but never perceiving.”
Ya ce, 'Jeka wurin al'umman nan ka ce, cikin ji zaku ji amma ba zaku fahimta ba; zaku gani amma ba zaku gane ba.
27 For this people’s heart has grown callous; they hardly hear with their ears, and they have closed their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their hearts, and turn, and I would heal them.’
Amma zuciyar mutanen nan ta yi kanta, kunnuwansu sun ji da kyar, sun rufe idanunsu; don kada su gani su gane, su kuma ji da kunuwansu, kuma su fahimta da zuciyarsu, domin su juyo ni kuma in warkar da su.”
28 Be advised, therefore, that God’s salvation has been sent to the Gentiles, and they will listen!”
Saboda haka, sai ku sani cewa wannan ceto na Allah an aikar da shi zuwa ga Al'ummai, za su kuma saurara.”
[Sa'adda ya fadi wannan zantattuka, Yahudawa suka tashi, suna gardama da junansu.]
30 Paul stayed there two full years in his own rented house, welcoming all who came to visit him.
Bulus ya zauna shekaru biyu a cikin gidan hayarsa, yana marabtar duk wadanda suka zo wurinsa.
31 Boldly and freely he proclaimed the kingdom of God and taught about the Lord Jesus Christ.
Yana wa'azin mulkin Allah, yana koyarwa da al'amuran Ubangiji Yesu Kristi gaba gadi. Ba wanda ya hana shi.
