< Malachi 1 >
1 The burden of the word of Yhwh to Israel by Malachi.
Annabci, wannan ita ce maganar Ubangiji ga Isra’ila ta wurin Malaki.
2 I have loved you, saith Yhwh. Yet ye say, Wherein hast thou loved us? Was not Esau Jacob’s brother? saith Yhwh: yet I loved Jacob,
“Na ƙaunace ku, in ji Ubangiji. “Amma sai kuka ce, ‘Yaya ka ƙaunace mu?’ “Isuwa ba ɗan’uwan Yaƙub ba ne?” In ji Ubangiji. “Duk da haka na ƙaunaci Yaƙub,
3 And I hated Esau, and laid his mountains and his heritage waste for the dragons of the wilderness.
amma na ƙi Isuwa, na kuma mai da ƙasarsa da take kan duwatsu kango, na ba da gādonsa ga dilolin hamada.”
4 Whereas Edom saith, We are impoverished, but we will return and build the desolate places; thus saith Yhwh of Armies, They shall build, but I will throw down; and they shall call them, The border of wickedness, and, The people against whom Yhwh hath indignation for ever.
Edom zai iya cewa, “Ko da yake an ragargaza mu, ai, za mu sāke gina kufanmu.” Amma ga abin da Ubangiji Maɗaukaki ya ce, “Za su iya gini, amma zan rushe. Za a ce da su Muguwar Ƙasa, mutane da kullum suke a ƙarƙashi fushin Ubangiji.
5 And your eyes shall see, and ye shall say, Yhwh will be magnified from the border of Israel.
Za ku ga wannan da idanunku ku kuma ce, ‘Ubangiji da girma yake, har gaba da iyakokin Isra’ila ma!’
6 A son honoureth his father, and a servant his master: if then I be a father, where is mine honour? and if I be a master, where is my fear? saith Yhwh of Armies unto you, O priests, that despise my name. And ye say, Wherein have we despised thy name?
“Ɗa yakan girmama mahaifinsa, bawa kuma yakan girmama maigidansa. In ni mahaifi ne, ina girman da ya dace da ni? In ni maigida ne, ina girman da ya dace da ni?” In ji Ubangiji Maɗaukaki. “Ku firistoci, ku ne kuka rena sunana. “Amma sai kuka ce, ‘Yaya muka rena sunanka?’
7 Ye offer polluted bread upon mine altar; and ye say, Wherein have we polluted thee? In that ye say, The table of Yhwh is contemptible.
“Kun ajiye abinci mai ƙazanta a kan bagadena. “Sai kuka ce, ‘Yaya muka ƙazantar da kai?’ “Ta wurin cewa teburin Ubangiji abin reni ne.
8 And if ye offer the blind for sacrifice, is it not evil? and if ye offer the lame and sick, is it not evil? offer it now unto thy governor; will he be pleased with thee, or accept thy person? saith Yhwh of Armies.
Sa’ad da kuka kawo makauniyar dabba don ku miƙa mini hadaya, wannan daidai ne? Sa’ad da kuka miƙa gurguwar dabba ko marar lafiya, wannan daidai ne? Ku gwada ba wa gwamnanku irin wannan ku gani! Kuna gani zai ji daɗinku? Zai karɓe ku ne?” In ji Ubangiji Maɗaukaki.
9 And now, I pray you, beseech God that he will be gracious unto us: this hath been by your means: will he regard your persons? saith Yhwh of Armies.
“To, firistoci yanzu ku gwada ku roƙi Allah yă yi mana alheri. Da irin hadayun nan a hannuwanku ne zai ji ku?” In ji Ubangiji Maɗaukaki.
10 Who is there even among you that would shut the doors for nought? neither do ye kindle fire on mine altar for nought. I have no pleasure in you, saith Yhwh of Armies, neither will I accept an offering at your hand.
“Kash, da ma wani daga cikinku ya rufe ƙofofin haikali don kada ku shiga, ku hura wuta marar amfani a bisa bagadena! Ba na jin daɗinku, ba zan kuwa karɓi hadaya daga hannuwanku ba” in ji Ubangiji Maɗaukaki.
11 For from the rising of the sun even unto the going down of the same my name shall be great among the Gentiles; and in every place incense shall be offered unto my name, and a pure offering: for my name shall be great among the heathen, saith Yhwh of Armies.
Sunana zai zama mai girma a cikin al’ummai, daga fitowar rana har zuwa fāɗuwarta. A kowane wuri za a miƙa wa sunana turare da tsabtacciyar hadaya domin sunana zai zama mai girma a cikin al’ummai, in ji Ubangiji Maɗaukaki.
12 But ye have profaned it, in that ye say, The table of Yhwh is polluted; and the fruit thereof, even his meat, is contemptible.
“Amma kun ƙazantar da sunana ta wurin cewa ‘Teburin Ubangiji ya ƙazantu,’ kuka kuma yi magana a kan abincinsa kuna cewa, ‘Abin reni ne.’
13 Ye said also, Behold, what a weariness is it! and ye have snuffed at it, saith Yhwh of Armies; and ye brought that which was torn, and the lame, and the sick; thus ye brought an offering: should I accept this of your hand? saith Yhwh.
Kun kuma ce, ‘Mun gaji da irin wannan wahala!’ Kuna hura mini hancin reni,” in ji Ubangiji Maɗaukaki. “Sa’ad da kuka kawo raunannu, gurguntattun dabbobi, ko kuma dabbobi masu fama da cuta, kuka kuma miƙa su hadaya, kuna gani zan karɓi wannan daga gare ku?” In ji Ubangiji.
14 But cursed be the deceiver, which hath in his flock a male, and voweth, and sacrificeth unto the Lord a corrupt thing: for I am a great King, saith Yhwh of Armies, and my name is dreadful among the heathen.
“La’ananne ne macucin da yake da lafiyayyiyar dabba namiji a garkensa wadda ya yi alkawari zai bayar, amma sai ya miƙa hadayar dabba mai aibi ga Ubangiji. Gama ni babban sarki ne, za a kuma ji tsoron sunana a cikin al’ummai,” in ji Ubangiji Maɗaukaki.
