< John 3 >

1 Now there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jewish people.
akwai wani Bafarise da ake kira Nikodimu, shugaba a cikin Yahudawa.
2 This man came to him at night, and said to him, "Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher come from God, for no one can do these signs that you do, unless God is with him."
Wannan mutum ya zo wurin Yesu da dare ya ce masa, “Rabbi, mun sani cewa kai malami ne da kazo daga wurin Allah, gama ba wanda zai iya yin wadannan alamu da kake yi sai idan Allah na tare da shi.”
3 Jesus answered him, "Truly, truly, I tell you, unless one is born again he cannot see the Kingdom of God."
Yesu ya amsa masa, “Hakika, hakika, idan ba a sake haifuwar mutum ba, ba zai iya ganin mulkin Allah ba.”
4 Nicodemus said to him, "How can anyone be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother's womb, and be born?"
Nikodimu ya ce masa, “Yaya za a sake haifuwar mutum bayan ya tsufa? Ba zai iya sake shiga cikin cikin uwarsa kuma a haife shi ba, zai iya?”
5 Jesus answered, "Truly, truly, I tell you, unless one is born of water and Spirit he cannot enter into the Kingdom of God.
Yesu ya amsa, “Hakika, hakika, idan ba a haifi mutum da ruwa da kuma Ruhu ba, ba zai iya shiga cikin mulkin Allah ba.
6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh. That which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
Abin da aka haifa ta wurin jiki, jiki ne, kuma abin da aka haifa ta wurin Ruhu, Ruhu ne.
7 Do not be surprised that I said to you, 'You must be born again.'
Kada ka yi mamaki don na ce maka, 'dole a maya haifuwar ka.'
8 The wind blows where it wants to, and you hear its sound, but do not know where it comes from and where it is going. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit."
Iska takan hura duk inda ta ga dama. Ka kan ji motsin ta, amma ba ka san inda ta fito ko inda za ta tafi ba. Haka duk wanda aka haifa daga Ruhu.”
9 Nicodemus answered and said to him, "How can these things be?"
Nikodimu ya amsa yace masa, “Yaya wannan zai yiwu?”
10 Jesus answered him, "Are you the teacher of Israel, and do not understand these things?
Yesu ya amsa yace masa, “Kai malami ne a Israila amma ba ka san wadannan al'amura ba?
11 Truly, truly, I tell you, we speak that which we know, and testify of that which we have seen, but you do not accept our testimony.
Hakika, hakika, ina gaya maka, muna fadin abubuwan da muka sani, kuma muna shaida abubuwan da muka gani. Duk da haka ba ku karbi shaidar mu ba.
12 If I told you earthly things and you do not believe, how will you believe if I tell you heavenly things?
Idan na gaya maka abubuwan da ke na duniya amma baka gaskata ba, to yaya zaka gaskata idan na gaya maka abubuwa na sama?
13 And no one has ascended into heaven, but he who descended out of heaven, the Son of Man, who is in heaven.
Babu wanda ya taba hawa zuwa sama sai dai shi wanda ya sauko daga sama: wato Dan Mutum.
14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up,
Kamar yadda Musa ya ta da maciji a jeji, haka ma dole a ta da Dan Mutum
15 so that everyone who believes in him may have life without end. (aiōnios g166)
domin dukan wadanda suka bada gaskiya gareshi su sami rai na har abada. (aiōnios g166)
16 For this is how God loved the world: he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have life without end. (aiōnios g166)
Gama Allah ya kaunaci duniya sosai, har ya ba da makadaicin Dansa, domin duk wanda ya bada gaskiya gareshi, kada ya mutu, amma ya samu rai madawwami. (aiōnios g166)
17 For God did not send his Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world should be saved through him.
Gama Allah bai aiko da Dansa cikin duniya domin ya kayar da duniya ba, amma domin a ceci duniya ta wurin sa.
18 The one who believes in him is not judged, but the one who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.
Duk wanda ya bada gaskiya gare shi ba a kayar da shi ba, amma duk wanda bai bada gaskiya gare shi ba an riga an kayar da shi, domin bai bada gaskiya ga sunan wannan da shi kadai ne Dan Allah ba.
19 This is the judgment, that the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light, because their works were evil.
Wannan shi ne dalilin shari'ar, domin haske ya zo duniya, amma mutane suka kaunaci duhu fiye da hasken, sabili da ayyukan su na mugunta ne.
20 For everyone who does evil hates the light, and does not come to the light, so that his works will not be exposed.
Domin duk wanda ke mugayen ayyuka ya ki haske, kuma baya zuwa wurin hasken domin kada ayyukansa su bayyanu.
21 But the one who does the truth comes to the light, that his works may be revealed, that they have been done in God."
Sai dai duk wanda yake aikata gaskiya kan zo wurin hasken domin ayyukansa, da ake aiwatarwa ga Allah, su bayyanu.
22 After these things, Jesus came with his disciples into the land of Judea. He stayed there with them, and was baptizing.
Bayan wannan, Yesu da almajiransa suka tafi kasar Yahudiya. A can ya dan zauna tare da su ya kuma yi Baftisma.
23 Now John also was baptizing in Aenon near Salim, because there was much water there. They came, and were baptized.
Yahaya ma yana Baftisma a Ainon kusa da Salim domin akwai ruwa da yawa a can. Mutane na zuwa wurin sa yana masu Baftisma,
24 For John was not yet thrown into prison.
domin a lokacin ba a jefa Yahaya a kurkuku ba tukuna.
25 Now a dispute arose between John's disciples with a Jew about purification.
Sai gardama ta taso tsakanin almajiran Yahaya da wani Bayahude akan al'adun tsarkakewa.
26 And they came to John, and said to him, "Rabbi, he who was with you beyond the Jordan, to whom you have testified, look, he is baptizing, and everyone is coming to him."
Suka je wurin Yahaya suka ce, “Rabbi, wanda yake tare da kai a dayan ketaren kogin Urdun, kuma ka shaida shi, duba, yana baftisma, kuma mutane duka suna zuwa wurin sa.”
27 John answered, "No one can receive anything, unless it has been given to him from heaven.
Yahaya ya amsa, “Mutum ba zai iya samun wani abu ba sai an ba shi daga sama.
28 You yourselves bear me witness that I said, 'I am not the Christ,' but, 'I have been sent before him.'
Ku da kanku zaku shaida na ce, 'Ba ni ne Almasihu ba' amma amaimakon haka, 'an aiko ni kafin shi.'
29 He who has the bride is the bridegroom; but the friend of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, rejoices greatly because of the bridegroom's voice. So this joy of mine is now complete.
Amaryar ta angon ce. Yanzu abokin angon, wanda ke tsaye yana saurarensa, yana murna sosai saboda muryan angon. Murnata ta cika domin wannan.
30 He must increase, but I must decrease.
Dole shi ya karu, ni kuma in ragu.
31 He who comes from above is above all. He who is from the earth belongs to the earth, and speaks of the earth. He who comes from heaven is above all.
Shi wanda ya fito daga sama ya fi kowa. Shi Wanda ya zo daga duniya, na duniya ne, kuma game da duniya yake magana. Shi wanda ya fito daga sama yana saman kowa.
32 What he has seen and heard, of that he testifies; and no one receives his witness.
Ya shaida abubuwan da ya ji ya kuma gani, amma babu wanda ya karbi shaidarsa.
33 He who has received his witness has set his seal to this, that God is true.
Duk wanda ya karbi shaidarsa ya tabbatar Allah gaskiya ne.
34 For he whom God has sent speaks the words of God; for he does not give the Spirit by measure.
Domin duk wanda Allah ya aika kan yi magana da kalmomin Allah. Domin bai bada Ruhun da ma'auni ba.
35 The Father loves the Son, and has given all things into his hand.
Uban ya kaunaci Dan, ya kuma ba da dukan komai a hanunsa.
36 Whoever believes in the Son has everlasting life, but whoever refuses to believe in the Son won't see life, but the wrath of God remains on him." (aiōnios g166)
Shi wanda ya bada gaskiya ga Dan ya na da rai madawwami, amma wanda ya ki yiwa Dan biyayya ba zai ga rai ba, amma fushin Allah na kansa. (aiōnios g166)
