Acts 19
1 And it came to pass, that, while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul having passed through the upper coasts came to Ephesus: and finding certain disciples,
Lokacin da Afollos yake a Korint, Bulus ya bi hanyar da ta ratsa ta Asiya ya zo Afisa. A can ya sadu da waɗansu almajirai,
2 He said unto them, Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed? And they said unto him, We have not so much as heard whether there be any Holy Ghost.
sai ya tambaye, su ya ce, “Kun karɓi Ruhu Mai Tsarki sa’ad da kuka gaskata?” Suka amsa suka ce, “A’a, ba mu ma san akwai Ruhu Mai Tsarki ba.”
3 And he said unto them, Unto what then were ye baptized? And they said, Unto John’s baptism.
Saboda haka Bulus ya yi tambaya ya ce, “To, wace baftisma aka yi muku?” Suka ce, “Baftismar Yohanna.”
4 Then said Paul, John verily baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they should believe on him which should come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus.
Bulus ya ce, “Ai, baftismar Yohanna, baftisma ce ta tuba. Ya ce wa mutane su gaskata a wani wanda yake zuwa bayansa, wato, Yesu.”
5 When they heard [this], they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.
Da ji wannan, sai aka yi musu baftisma a cikin sunan Ubangiji Yesu.
6 And when Paul had laid [his] hands upon them, the Holy Ghost came on them; and they spake with tongues, and prophesied.
Da Bulus ya ɗibiya musu hannuwansa, sai Ruhu Mai Tsarki ya sauka musu, suka kuwa yi magana da harsuna, suka kuma yi annabci.
7 And all the men were about twelve.
Mutane kuwa su wajen mutum goma sha biyu ne.
8 And he went into the synagogue, and spake boldly for the space of three months, disputing and persuading the things concerning the kingdom of God.
Bulus ya shiga majami’a ya yi magana gabagadi a can na watanni uku, yana muhawwara yana kuma rinjayarsu game da mulkin Allah.
9 But when divers were hardened, and believed not, but spake evil of that way before the multitude, he departed from them, and separated the disciples, disputing daily in the school of one Tyrannus.
Amma waɗansunsu suka taurara; suka ƙi su gaskata kuma a gaban jama’a suka yi baƙar magana game da Hanyar. Bulus kuwa ya bar su. Ya tafi tare da almajirai ya dinga tattaunawa da su kullum a babban ɗakin jawabi na Tirannus.
10 And this continued by the space of two years; so that all they which dwelt in Asia heard the word of the Lord Jesus, both Jews and Greeks.
Wannan ya ci gaba har shekara biyu, sai da ya sa dukan Yahudawa da Hellenawa da suke zaune a lardin Asiya suka ji maganar Ubangiji.
11 And God wrought special miracles by the hands of Paul:
Allah ya yi ayyukan banmamakin da suka wuce misali ta hannu Bulus,
12 So that from his body were brought unto the sick handkerchiefs or aprons, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out of them.
har ma ana kai hankicif da adikan da suka taɓa jikinsa wa marasa lafiya, suka kuwa warke daga cututtukansu mugayen ruhohi kuma suka rabu da su.
13 Then certain of the vagabond Jews, exorcists, took upon them to call over them which had evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preacheth.
Waɗansu Yahudawa masu yawo gari-gari suna fitar da mugayen ruhohi suka yi ƙoƙari su yi amfani da sunan Ubangiji Yesu a kan waɗanda suke da aljanu. Suna cewa, “A cikin sunan Yesu wanda Bulus yake wa’azi, na umarce ku, ku fito.”
14 And there were seven sons of [one] Sceva, a Jew, [and] chief of the priests, which did so.
’Ya’ya bakwai maza na Sikeba, wani babban firist na Yahudawa, suna yin haka.
15 And the evil spirit answered and said, Jesus I know, and Paul I know; but who are ye?
Wata rana mugun ruhu ya amsa musu ya ce, “Yesu kam na sani, Bulus kuma na sani, amma ku kuma su wane ne?”
16 And the man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, and overcame them, and prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded.
Sai mutumin da yake da mugun ruhun ya fāɗa musu ya sha ƙarfinsu duka. Ya yi musu dūkan tsiya har suka fita a guje daga gidan tsirara jini yana zuba.
17 And this was known to all the Jews and Greeks also dwelling at Ephesus; and fear fell on them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified.
Da Yahudawa da Hellenawan da suke zama a Afisa suka ji wannan labari sai duk tsoro ya kama su, aka kuwa darjanta sunan Ubangiji Yesu ƙwarai.
18 And many that believed came, and confessed, and shewed their deeds.
Da yawa cikin waɗanda suka gaskata yanzu suka zo a fili suka furta mugayen ayyukansu.
19 Many of them also which used curious arts brought their books together, and burned them before all [men]: and they counted the price of them, and found [it] fifty thousand [pieces] of silver.
Waɗansu masu yin sihiri suka kawo naɗaɗɗun littattafansu wuri ɗaya suka kuwa ƙone su a gaban jama’a. Sa’ad da aka lissafta yawan kuɗin naɗaɗɗun littattafan nan, sai jimillar ta kai darik dubu hamsin.
20 So mightily grew the word of God and prevailed.
Ta haka maganar Ubangiji ta bazu ko’ina ta kuma yi ƙarfi.
21 After these things were ended, Paul purposed in the spirit, when he had passed through Macedonia and Achaia, to go to Jerusalem, saying, After I have been there, I must also see Rome.
Bayan dukan wannan ya faru, sai Bulus ya yanke shawara ya ratsa Makidoniya da Akayya in za shi Urushalima. Ya kuma ce, “Bayan na tafi can, dole in ziyarci Roma ita ma.”
22 So he sent into Macedonia two of them that ministered unto him, Timotheus and Erastus; but he himself stayed in Asia for a season.
Sai ya aiki biyu daga cikin masu taimakonsa, Timoti da Erastus, zuwa Makidoniya, yayinda shi kuwa ya ɗan dakata a lardin Asiya.
23 And the same time there arose no small stir about that way.
Kusan wannan lokaci sai aka yi wani babban hargitsi game da wannan Hanyar.
24 For a certain [man] named Demetrius, a silversmith, which made silver shrines for Diana, brought no small gain unto the craftsmen;
Wani maƙerin azurfa, mai suna Demetiriyus wanda yake ƙera siffar ɗakunan tsafin Artemis da azurfa, ba ƙaramin ciniki yake kawo wa mutane masu sana’an nan ba.
25 Whom he called together with the workmen of like occupation, and said, Sirs, ye know that by this craft we have our wealth.
Sai ya tara su wuri ɗaya, tare da masu irin wannan sana’ar ya ce, “Ku jama’a, kun san muna samun kuɗin shiga sosai daga wannan sana’a.
26 Moreover ye see and hear, that not alone at Ephesus, but almost throughout all Asia, this Paul hath persuaded and turned away much people, saying that they be no gods, which are made with hands:
Kuma kuna ji kuna gani yadda Bulus ɗin nan ya shawo kan mutane da yawa ya kuma sa suka bauɗe a nan a Afisa da dukan lardin Asiya. Yana cewa alloli da mutum ya ƙera ba alloli ba ne ko kaɗan.
27 So that not only this our craft is in danger to be set at nought; but also that the temple of the great goddess Diana should be despised, and her magnificence should be destroyed, whom all Asia and the world worshippeth.
Akwai hatsari, ba kawai cewa sana’armu za tă rasa sunanta mai daraja ba, amma za a yi banza da ɗakin tsafin Artemis alliyarmu mai girma, alliyar kanta wadda ake bauta a ko’ina a yankin Asiya da kuma duniya, za a raba ta da darajarta.”
28 And when they heard [these sayings], they were full of wrath, and cried out, saying, Great [is] Diana of the Ephesians.
Da suka ji haka, sai suka yi fushi ƙwarai suka fara ihu suna cewa, “Girma ta tabbata ga Artemis ta Afisawa!”
29 And the whole city was filled with confusion: and having caught Gaius and Aristarchus, men of Macedonia, Paul’s companions in travel, they rushed with one accord into the theatre.
Jim kaɗan sai hayaniya ta tashi a dukan birnin. Sai mutane suka cafke Gayus da Aristarkus, abokan tafiyar Bulus daga Makidoniya, suka ruga da zuwa fili da nufi ɗaya.
30 And when Paul would have entered in unto the people, the disciples suffered him not.
Bulus ya so ya bayyana a gaban taron, amma almajirai ba su bar shi ba.
31 And certain of the chief of Asia, which were his friends, sent unto him, desiring [him] that he would not adventure himself into the theatre.
Har waɗansu shugabannin lardin ma, abokan Bulus, suka aika masa suna roƙonsa kada yă kuskura ya shiga filin nan.
32 Some therefore cried one thing, and some another: for the assembly was confused; and the more part knew not wherefore they were come together.
Taron kuwa ya ruɗe. Waɗansu suna ihu suna ce abu kaza, waɗansu kuma wani abu dabam. Yawancin mutane kuma ba su ma san abin da ya sa suke a wurin ba.
33 And they drew Alexander out of the multitude, the Jews putting him forward. And Alexander beckoned with the hand, and would have made his defence unto the people.
Yahudawa suka tura Alekzanda gaba, sai waɗansu a taron suka riƙa yin masa ihu. Sai ya ɗaga hannu don a yi shiru don yă kāre kansa a gaban mutane.
34 But when they knew that he was a Jew, all with one voice about the space of two hours cried out, Great [is] Diana of the Ephesians.
Amma sa’ad da suka gane shi mutumin Yahuda ne, sai duk suka yi ihu gaba ɗaya na kusa sa’a biyu, suna cewa, “Girma ta tabbata ga Artemis ta Afisawa!”
35 And when the townclerk had appeased the people, he said, [Ye] men of Ephesus, what man is there that knoweth not how that the city of the Ephesians is a worshipper of the great goddess Diana, and of the [image] which fell down from Jupiter?
Sai magatakardar birnin ya sa taron su yi shiru, sa’an nan ya ce, “Mutanen Afisa, ashe duk duniya ba tă san cewa birnin Afisa ce mai lura da haikalin Artemis mai girma da kuma siffarta da ya fāɗi daga sama ba?
36 Seeing then that these things cannot be spoken against, ye ought to be quiet, and to do nothing rashly.
Saboda haka, da yake ba dama a yi mūsun wannan gaskiya, ya kamata ku natsu kada ku yi kome da garaje.
37 For ye have brought hither these men, which are neither robbers of churches, nor yet blasphemers of your goddess.
Kun kawo mutanen nan a nan, gashi kuwa ba su yi fashin haikali ba, ba su kuwa saɓa wa alliyarmu ba.
38 Wherefore if Demetrius, and the craftsmen which are with him, have a matter against any man, the law is open, and there are deputies: let them implead one another.
To, in haka ne, in Demetiriyus da abokan sana’arsa suna da wata magana game da wani ai, kotuna suna nan a buɗe, akwai kuma muƙaddasai. Suna iya kai ƙara.
39 But if ye enquire any thing concerning other matters, it shall be determined in a lawful assembly.
In kuma akwai wani abu har yanzu da kuke so ku kawo, dole a daidaita shi a majalisa.
40 For we are in danger to be called in question for this day’s uproar, there being no cause whereby we may give an account of this concourse.
Yadda yake a yanzu, muna a hatsarin amsa zargin ta da hargitsi saboda abin da ya faru yau. Da yake ba za mu iya ba da dalilin da ya sa aka yi wannan hargitsi ba.”
41 And when he had thus spoken, he dismissed the assembly.
Bayan da ya faɗi haka, sai ya sallami taron.
