Jacob 2
1 My brothers, do not hold the faith of our Lord Jesus (the) Messiah of glory with partiality.
’Yan’uwana, a matsayinmu cikin Ubangiji Yesu Kiristi maɗaukaki, kada ku nuna bambanci.
2 For if someone with a gold ring, in fine clothing, comes into your synagogue, and a poor person in filthy clothing also comes in;
A ce wani ya shigo cikin taronku saye da zoben zinariya da riguna masu tsada, wani matalauci kuma saye da tsummoki shi ma ya shigo,
3 and you pay special attention to the one who wears the fine clothing, and say, "Sit here in a good place;" but you tell the poor person, "Stand there," or "Sit by my footstool."
in kuka mai da hankali na musamman ga mutumin da yake da riguna masu tsadan nan kuka kuma ce, “Ga wurin zama mai kyau dominka,” amma kuka ce wa matalaucin nan, “Kai tsaya daga can,” ko kuwa, “Ka zauna a ƙasa kusa da ƙafafuna,”
4 Have you not discriminated among yourselves, and become judges with evil thoughts?
ashe, ba ku nuna bambanci a tsakaninku ke nan ba, kuka kuma zama alƙalai masu mugayen tunani?
5 Listen, my beloved brothers. Did not God choose those who are poor in this world to be rich in faith, and heirs of the Kingdom which he promised to those who love him?
Ku saurara,’yan’uwana ƙaunatattu. Ashe, Allah bai zaɓi waɗanda suke matalauta a idon duniya don su zama masu wadata cikin bangaskiya, su kuma gāji mulkin da ya yi wa masu ƙaunarsa alkawari ba?
6 But you have dishonored the poor person. Do not the rich oppress you, and personally drag you before the courts?
Ga shi kun wulaƙanta matalauta. Ashe, ba masu arziki ne suke cutarku ba? Ba su ba ne suke jan ku zuwa kotu?
7 Do not they blaspheme the honorable name by which you are called?
Ba su ba ne suke ɓata sunan nan mai martaba wanda aka san ku da shi ba?
8 However, if you fulfill the royal law, according to the Scripture, "You are to love your neighbor as yourself," you do well.
In fa kun kiyaye dokan nan ta mulki wadda take cikin Nassi mai cewa, “Ƙaunaci maƙwabcinka kamar kanka,” kun yi daidai.
9 But if you show partiality, you commit sin, being convicted by the law as transgressors.
Amma in kuka nuna bambanci, kun yi zunubi ke nan shari’a kuma ta same ku da laifi a matsayin masu karya doka.
10 For whoever keeps the whole law, and yet stumbles in one point, he has become guilty of all.
Gama duk wanda ya kiyaye dukan doka amma ya yi tuntuɓe a kan abu ɗaya kaɗai, ya zama mai laifin karya dukansu ke nan.
11 For he who said, "Do not commit adultery," also said, "Do not commit murder." Now if you do not commit adultery, but murder, you have become a transgressor of the law.
Gama shi da ya ce, “Kada ka yi zina,” shi ne kuma ya ce, “Kada ka yi kisankai.” In kuwa ba ka zina amma kana kisankai, ka zama mai karya doka ke nan.
12 So speak, and so do, as those who are to be judged by a law of freedom.
Ku yi magana ku kuma yi aiki kamar waɗanda za a yi musu shari’a bisa ga doka mai ba da’yanci,
13 For judgment is without mercy to him who has shown no mercy. Mercy triumphs over judgment.
gama za a yi wa duk wanda bai nuna jinƙai ba hukunci babu jinƙai. Jinƙai yakan yi nasara a kan hukunci!
14 What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith, but has no works? Can faith save him?
Wanda amfani ne,’yan’uwana, a ce wani yă ce yana da bangaskiya, amma ba shi da ayyuka? Anya, wannan bangaskiya za tă iya cetonsa kuwa?
15 And if a brother or sister is poorly clothed and may be lacking in daily food,
A ce wani ɗan’uwa ko’yar’uwa ba shi da riguna ko abincin yini,
16 and one of you tells them, "Go in peace, be warmed and filled;" and yet you did not give them the things the body needs, what good is it?
sai waninku yă ce masa, “Sauka lafiya, Allah ya ba da ci da sha da kuma sutura,” amma bai yi wani abu game da bukatunsa na jiki ba, ina amfani?
17 Even so faith, if it has no works, is dead in itself.
Haka ma bangaskiya ita kaɗai, in ba tare da ayyuka ba, matacciya ce.
18 But someone will say, "You have faith, and I have works." Show me your faith without works, and I by my works will show you my faith.
Amma wani zai ce, “Kai kana da bangaskiya; ni kuma ina da ayyuka.” Ka nuna mini bangaskiyarka ba tare da ayyuka ba, ni kuma zan nuna maka bangaskiyata ta wurin abin da nake yi.
19 You believe that God is one. You do well. The demons also believe, and shudder.
Ka gaskata cewa Allah ɗaya ne. To, da kyau! Ai, ko aljanu ma sun gaskata wannan, har da rawan jiki.
20 But do you want to know, foolish person, that faith apart from works is useless?
Kai wawa, kana son tabbaci cewa bangaskiya marar ayyuka banza ce?
21 Wasn't Abraham our father justified by works, in that he offered up Isaac his son on the altar?
Ashe, ba a mai da kakanmu Ibrahim mai adalci saboda abin da ya yi ba ne sa’ad da ya miƙa ɗansa Ishaku a bisa bagade?
22 You see that faith worked with his works, and by works faith was perfected;
Ai, ka gani cewa bangaskiyarsa da ayyukansa sun yi aiki tare, bangaskiyarsa kuma ta zama cikakkiya ta wurin abin da ya yi.
23 and the Scripture was fulfilled which says, "And Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness;" and he was called the friend of God.
Aka kuma cika nassin nan da ya ce, “Ibrahim ya gaskata Allah, aka kuma lissafta wannan adalci ne gare shi,” aka kuma ce da shi abokin Allah.
24 You see that a person is justified by works and not by faith alone.
Kun ga cewa ashe mutum zai sami kuɓuta ta wurin abin da ya yi ne ba ta wurin bangaskiya kaɗai ba.
25 In like manner was not Rahab the prostitute also justified by works, in that she received the messengers, and sent them out another way?
Ta haka kuma ashe, Rahab karuwan nan ba a ɗauke ta mai adalci ce saboda abin da ta yi ba ne sa’ad da ta ba wa’yan leƙen asirin nan masauƙi ta kuma sallame su suka tafi ta wata hanya dabam?
26 For as the body apart from the spirit is dead, even so faith apart from works is dead.
Kamar yadda jikin da babu ruhu matacce ne, haka ma bangaskiyar da babu ayyuka matacciya ce.
