Acts 8
1 And Saul was assenting to his death, and there came in that day a great persecution on the Assembly in Jerusalem, all were also scattered abroad in the regions of Judea and Samaria, except the apostles;
Shawulu kuwa yana can, yana tabbatar da mutuwarsa. A wannan rana wani babban tsanani ya auka wa ikkilisiyar da take a Urushalima, sai duka suka warwatsu ko’ina a Yahudiya da Samariya, manzanni kaɗai ne suka rage.
2 and devout men carried Stephen away, and made great lamentation over him;
Mutane masu tsoron Allah suka binne Istifanus suka kuma yi makoki ƙwarai dominsa.
3 and Saul was making havoc of the Assembly, entering into every house, and dragging away men and women, giving them up to prison;
Amma Shawulu ya fara hallaka ikkilisiya. Yana shiga gida-gida, yana jan maza da mata yana jefa su cikin kurkuku.
4 they then indeed, having been scattered, went abroad proclaiming good news—the word.
Waɗanda aka wartsar suka yi ta wa’azin maganar a duk inda suka tafi.
5 And Philip having gone down to a city of Samaria, was preaching the Christ to them;
Filibus ya gangara zuwa wani birni a Samariya ya kuma yi shelar Kiristi a can.
6 the multitudes were also giving heed to the things spoken by Philip, with one accord, in their hearing and seeing the signs that he was doing,
Sa’ad da taron mutane suka ji Filibus suka kuma ga abubuwan banmamakin da ya yi, sai duk suka mai da hankali sosai ga abin da ya faɗa.
7 for unclean spirits came forth from many who were possessed, crying with a loud voice, and many who have been paralytic and lame were healed,
Mugayen ruhohi suka fiffito suna kururuwa daga cikin mutane da yawa, shanyayyu da guragu masu yawa suka sami warkarwa.
8 and there was great joy in that city.
Saboda haka aka yi farin ciki ƙwarai a birnin.
9 And a certain man, by name Simon, was previously in the city using magic, and amazing the nation of Samaria, saying himself to be a certain great one,
To, akwai wani mutum mai suna Siman wanda ya kwana biyu yana yin sihiri a birnin har ya ba wa duk mutanen Samariya mamaki. Ya kuma yi taƙama cewa shi wani mai girma ne,
10 to whom they were all giving heed, from small to great, saying, “This one is the great power of God”;
dukan mutane kuwa, manyan da ƙanana, suka mai da hankali gare shi suka kuma ce, “Mutumin nan shi ne ikon Allah da aka sani a matsayin Iko Mai Girma”
11 and they were giving heed to him, because of his having amazed them for a long time with deeds of magic.
Suka bi shi domin ya daɗe yana ba su mamaki da sihirinsa.
12 And when they believed Philip, proclaiming good news, the things concerning the Kingdom of God and the Name of Jesus Christ, they were immersed—both men and women;
Amma da suka gaskata da Filibus sa’ad da yake wa’azin labari mai daɗi na mulkin Allah da kuma sunan Yesu Kiristi, sai aka yi musu baftisma, maza da mata.
13 and Simon himself also believed, and having been immersed, he was continuing with Philip, beholding also signs and mighty acts being done, he was amazed.
Siman kansa ya gaskata aka kuma yi masa baftisma. Ya kuma bi Filibus ko’ina, yana mamakin manyan alamu da ayyukan banmamakin da ya gani.
14 And the apostles in Jerusalem having heard that Samaria has received the word of God, sent Peter and John to them,
Sa’ad da manzannin da suke a Urushalima suka ji cewa Samariya ta karɓi maganar Allah, sai suka aika musu da Bitrus da Yohanna.
15 who having come down prayed concerning them, that they may receive the Holy Spirit—
Da suka iso, sai suka yi musu addu’a domin su karɓi Ruhu Mai Tsarki,
16 for as yet He was fallen on none of them, and only they have been immersed—into the Name of the Lord Jesus;
domin Ruhu Mai Tsarki bai riga ya sauka wa waninsu ba tukuna, an dai yi musu baftisma ne kawai a cikin sunan Ubangiji Yesu.
17 then they were laying hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit.
Sa’an nan Bitrus da Yohanna suka ɗibiya hannuwansu a kansu, suka kuwa karɓi Ruhu Mai Tsarki.
18 And Simon, having beheld that through the laying on of the hands of the apostles the Holy Spirit is given, brought money before them,
Sa’ad da Siman ya ga cewa ana ba da Ruhu ta wurin ɗibiya hannuwan manzannin, sai ya miƙa musu kuɗi,
19 saying, “Give also to me this authority, that on whomsoever I may lay the hands, he may receive the Holy Spirit.”
ya ce, “Ni ma ku ba ni wannan iyawa don kowa na ɗibiya wa hannuwana yă karɓi Ruhu Mai Tsarki.”
20 And Peter said to him, “Your silver with you—may it be to destruction! Because you thought to possess the gift of God through money;
Bitrus ya amsa ya ce, “Bari kuɗinka ya hallaka tare da kai, domin ka yi tsammani za ka iya saya kyautar Allah da kuɗi!
21 you have neither part nor lot in this thing, for your heart is not right before God;
Ba ruwanka da wannan hidimar, domin zuciyarka ba daidai take a gaban Allah ba.
22 convert, therefore, from this your wickedness, and implore God, if then the purpose of your heart may be forgiven you,
Ka tuba daga wannan mugunta ka kuma yi addu’a ga Ubangiji. Wataƙila zai gafarta maka don irin tunanin da yake a zuciyarka.
23 for in the gall of bitterness, and bond of unrighteousness, I perceive you being.”
Gama na lura kana cike da ɗacin rai kana kuma daure cikin zunubi.”
24 And Simon answering, said, “Implore for me to the LORD, that nothing may come on me of the things you have spoken.”
Sai Siman ya amsa ya ce, “Ku yi addu’a ga Ubangiji saboda ni don kada ko ɗaya daga cikin abin da ka faɗa ya same ni.”
25 They indeed, therefore, having testified fully, and spoken the word of the LORD, turned back to Jerusalem; they also proclaimed good news in many villages of the Samaritans.
Sa’ad da suka yi shaidar suka kuma yi shelar maganar Ubangiji, sai Bitrus da Yohanna suka koma Urushalima, suna wa’azin bishara a ƙauyukan Samariya masu yawa.
26 And a messenger of the LORD spoke to Philip, saying, “Arise, and go on toward the south, on the way that is going down from Jerusalem to Gaza.” (This is desolate.)
To wani mala’ikan Ubangiji ya ce wa Filibus, “Ka yi kudu zuwa hanyar, hanyar hamada, da ta gangara daga Urushalima zuwa Gaza.”
27 And having arisen, he went on, and behold, a man of Ethiopia, a eunuch, a man of rank, of Candace the queen of the Ethiopians, who was over all her treasure, who had come to Jerusalem to worship;
Saboda haka ya kama hanya, a kan hanyarsa kuwa sai ya sadu da wani mutumin Itiyofiya, wanda yake bābā, hafsa mai muhimmanci wanda yake lura da dukan ma’ajin Kandas (wanda yake nufin “sarauniyar mutanen Itiyofiya”). Mutumin nan ya tafi Urushalima ne domin yin sujada,
28 he was also returning, and is sitting on his chariot, and he was reading the prophet Isaiah.
a kan hanyarsa ta komawa gida kuwa yana zaune bisan keken yaƙinsa yana karatun littafin annabin Ishaya.
29 And the Spirit said to Philip, “Go near, and be joined to this chariot”;
Sai Ruhu ya ce wa Filibus, “Matsa wurin kekunan yaƙin nan ka yi kusa da ita.”
30 and Philip having run near, heard him reading the prophet Isaiah and said, “Do you then know what you read?”
Sai Filibus ya ruga zuwa wajen keken yaƙin ya kuma ji mutumin yana karatun littafin annabin Ishaya. Filibus ya yi tambaya ya ce, “Ka fahimci abin da kake karantawa?”
31 And he said, “Why, how am I able, if someone may not guide me?” He called Philip also, having come up, to sit with him.
Sai ya ce, “Ina fa zan iya, in ba dai wani ya fassara mini ba?” Saboda haka sai ya gayyaci Filibus yă hau yă zauna tare da shi.
32 And the passage of the Writing that he was reading was this: “He was led as a sheep to slaughter, And as a lamb before his shearer is silent, So He does not open His mouth;
Bābān yana karanta wannan Nassin, “An ja shi kamar tunkiya zuwa mayanka, kuma kamar ɗan rago a hannun mai askin gashinsa yake shiru, haka kuwa bai buɗe bakinsa ba.
33 In His humiliation His judgment was taken away, And His generation—who will declare? Because His life is taken from the earth.”
A cikin wulaƙacinsa aka hana masa gaskiya. Wa zai iya yin zancen zuriyarsa? Gama an ɗauke ransa daga duniya.”
34 And the eunuch answering Philip said, “I beg you, about whom does the prophet say this? About himself, or about some other one?”
Sai bābān ya tambayi Filibus ya ce, “Ka gaya mini, ina roƙonka, annabin yana magana a kan wane ne, kansa ne, ko kuwa wani dabam?”
35 And Philip having opened his mouth, and having begun from this Writing, proclaimed good news to him—Jesus.
Sa’an nan Filibus ya fara da wannan Nassi ɗin ya kuma faɗa masa labari mai daɗi game da Yesu.
36 And as they were going on the way, they came on some water, and the eunuch said, “Behold, water; what hinders me to be immersed?”
Yayinda suke cikin tafiya a kan hanya, sai suka iso wani wurin ruwa bābān nan ya ce, “Duba, ga ruwa. Me zai hana a yi mini baftisma?”
37 [[And Philip said, “If you believe out of all the heart, it is lawful”; and he answering said, “I believe Jesus Christ to be the Son of God”; ]]
38 and he commanded the chariot to stand still, and they both went down to the water, both Philip and the eunuch, and he immersed him;
Ya kuwa ba da umarni a tsai da keken yaƙin. Sa’an nan da Filibus da bābān suka gangara zuwa cikin ruwan Filibus kuwa ya yi masa baftisma.
39 and when they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the LORD snatched up Philip, and the eunuch saw him no more, for he was going on his way rejoicing;
Sa’ad da suka fita daga cikin ruwan, sai Ruhun Ubangiji ya fyauce Filibus, bābān kuwa bai ƙara ganinsa ba, amma ya ci gaba da tafiyarsa yana farin ciki.
40 and Philip was found at Azotus, and passing through, he was proclaiming good news to all the cities, until his coming to Caesarea.
Filibus kuwa ya fito a Azotus, ya yi ta zagawa, yana wa’azin bishara a dukan garuruwan sai da ya kai Kaisariya.
