1 Corinthians 9
1 Am not I free? Am not I an apostle? Have not I seen Christ Jesus our Lord? Are not you my work in the Lord?
Ni ba yantacce bane? Ni ba Manzo ba ne? Ban ga Ubangijinmu Yesu ba? ba ku ne aikin hannuna cikin Ubangiji ba?
2 And if unto others I be not an apostle, but yet to you I am. For you are the seal of my apostleship in the Lord.
Idan ni ba Manzo ba ne ga wadansu, hakika ni Manzo ne a gare ku. Ai kune shedar manzanci na cikin Ubangiji.
3 My defence with them that do examine me is this.
Ga kariya ta zuwa masu zargi na,
4 Have not we power to eat and to drink?
Ba mu da 'yanci mu ci mu sha?
5 Have we not power to carry about a woman, a sister, as well as the rest of the apostles, and the brethren of the Lord, and Cephas?
Ba mu da 'yanci mu dauki mace mai bada gaskiya kamar sauran manzanni da Kefas da 'yan'uwan Ubangiji?
6 Or I only and Barnabas, have not we power to do this?
ko ni da Barnabas ne kawai muka cancanci aiki?
7 Who serveth as a soldier at any time, at his own charges? Who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? Who feedeth the flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock?
Wake aikin soja daga aljihunsa? Wake shuka gonar inabi baya ci daga 'ya'yan ta ba? Ko kuwa wake kiwon tumaki ba ya shan madarasu?
8 Speak I these things according to man? Or doth not the law also say these things?
Ina wannan zance da ikon mutum ne? Doka bata fadi haka ba?
9 For it is written in the law of Moses: Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen?
Gama a rubuce yake a attaura ta Musa cewa, Takarkari mai tattake hatsi kada a sa masa takunkumi. Amma shanu ne Ubangiji ke zance a kai?
10 Or doth he say this indeed for our sakes? For these things are written for our sakes: that he that plougheth, should plough in hope; and he that thrasheth, in hope to receive fruit.
Ba don mu yake magana ba? An rubuta domin mu ne. Domin wanda yake noma, yayi cikin bege. mai tattake hatsi kuma yayi da begen samu.
11 If we have sown unto you spiritual things, is it a great matter if we reap your carnal things?
Idan mun yi shuka ta ruhaniya a rayuwarku, mai wuya ne mu girbi kayan ku na jiki?
12 If others be partakers of this power over you, why not we rather? Nevertheless, we have not used this power: but we bear all things, lest we should give any hindrance to the gospel of Christ.
Idan wadansu sun mori wannan 'yanci a gurin ku, ba mu fi su cancanta ba? duk da haka bamu yi amfani da wannan 'yancin ba, maimakon haka, mun yi jimriya da duk abin da zaya hana bisharar Yesu Almasihu.
13 Know you not, that they who work in the holy place, eat the things that are of the holy place; and they that serve the altar, partake with the altar?
Baku sani ba masu bauta a haikali suna samun abincinsu ne daga haikalin? Baku sani ba masu bauta a bagadi, suna da rabo daga abin da ake kawowa kan bagadin?
14 So also the Lord ordained that they who preach the gospel, should live by the gospel.
Haka kuma Ubangiji ya umarta masu aikin bishara zasu ci abincinsu ta hanyar bishara.
15 But I have used none of these things. Neither have I written these things, that they should be so done unto me: for it is good for me to die, rather than that any man should make my glory void.
Amma ban yi amfani da wannan 'yanci ba, ba kuma ina rubuta maku domin ayi mani wani abu bane, na gwanmace in mutu maimakon wani ya hana ni wannan fahariya.
16 For if I preach the gospel, it is no glory to me, for a necessity lieth upon me: for woe is unto me if I preach not the gospel.
Ko nayi shelar bishara, ba ni da dalilin fahariya domin ya zama dole in yi. Kaito na idan ban yi shelar bishara ba
17 For if I do this thing willingly, I have a reward: but if against my will, a dispensation is committed to me:
Idan na yi hidimar nan da yardar zuciyata, ina da sakamako, idan kuma ba da yaddar zuciyata ba, harwa yau akwai nauwaya akai na.
18 What is my reward then? That preaching the gospel, I may deliver the gospel without charge, that I abuse not my power in the gospel.
To menene sakamako na? shi ne in yi shelar bishara kyauta, da haka ba zan yi amfani the 'yanci na cikin bishara ba
19 For whereas I was free as to all, I made myself the servant of all, that I might gain the more.
Ko da shike ni 'yantacce ne ga duka, amma na mai da kaina bawan kowa domin in ribato masu yawa,
20 And I became to the Jews, a Jew, that I might gain the Jews:
Ga yahudawa, na zama bayahude, domin in ribato yahudawa, ga wadanda ke karkashin shari'a, na maishe kaina kamarsu, domin in ribato wadanda ke karkashinta. Na aikata wannan ko da shike bana karkashin shari'a
21 To them that are under the law, as if I were under the law, (whereas myself was not under the law, ) that I might gain them that were under the law. To them that were without the law, as if I were without the law, (whereas I was not without the law of God, but was in the law of Christ, ) that I might gain them that were without the law.
Ga wadanda basu karkashin shari'a, na maishe kaina kamar su. Ko da shike ban rabu da shari'ar Allah ba. Amma ina karkashin dokar Almasihu. Na yi haka ne domin in ribato wadanda ba sa karkashin shari'a.
22 To the weak I became weak, that I might gain the weak. I became all things to all men, that I might save all.
Ga marasa karfi, na maishe kaina kamar marar karfi, domin in ribato raunana. Na mai da kaina dukan abu ga dukan mutane domin in sami zarafin da zan ribato wadansu zuwa ceto.
23 And I do all things for the gospel’s sake: that I may be made partaker thereof.
Ina dukan abu sabili da bishara, domin kuma in sami albarkar da ke cikinta
24 Know you not that they that run in the race, all run indeed, but one receiveth the prize? So run that you may obtain.
Baku sani ba mutane da dama suna shiga tsere amma daya neke karbar sakamakon, saboda haka ku yi tsere domin ku karbi sakamako.
25 And every one that striveth for the mastery, refraineth himself from all things: and they indeed that they may receive a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible one.
Dan wasa yana motsa jiki da kame kansa. Yana yi saboda ya karbi wannan sakamako mai lalacewa, amma muna tsere domin mu karbi sakamako marar lalacewa.
26 I therefore so run, not as at an uncertainty: I so fight, not as one beating the air:
Saboda haka ba na tsere ko fada haka nan kamar mai bugun iska.
27 But I chastise my body, and bring it into subjection: lest perhaps, when I have preached to others, I myself should become a castaway.
Amma ina matse jiki na in maishe shi bawa, kada bayan na yi wa wadansu wa'azi ni kuma a karshe a fitar da ni.
