1 Peter 2
1 Putting away, therefore, all vice and all deceit and hypocrisy and envyings and all detractions,
Saboda haka, ku rabu da kowace ƙeta da dukan ruɗu, munafunci, kishi, da kuma kowace irin ɓata suna.
2 As new-born babes, for the pure milk that is for the mind, eagerly crave, that, thereby, ye may grow unto salvation: —
Kamar sababbin jarirai, ku yi marmarin madara zalla ta ruhaniya, domin ta wurinta za ku yi girma cikin cetonku,
3 If ye have tasted for yourselves that, gracious, is the Lord, —
yanzu da kuka ɗanɗana alherin Ubangiji.
4 Unto whom coming near, as unto a living stone—by men, indeed, rejected, but, with God, chosen, held in honour,
Da kuka zo gare shi, rayayyen Dutse, da mutane suka ƙi amma Allah ya zaɓa, kuma mai daraja a gare shi
5 Yourselves also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house, for a holy priesthood, to offer spiritual sacrifices, well-pleasing unto God through Jesus Christ;
ku ma, a matsayinku na duwatsu masu rai, ana gina ku ga zama gidan ruhaniya don ku zama tsattsarkar ƙungiyar firistoci, kuna miƙa hadayun ruhaniya, abin karɓa ga Allah ta wurin Yesu Kiristi.
6 Inasmuch as it is contained in scripture—Lo! I lay in Zion an outmost corner stone, chosen, held in honour, and, he that resteth faith thereupon, shall not be put to shame.
Gama a cikin Nassi an ce, “Ga shi, na kafa dutse a Sihiyona, zaɓaɓɓen dutse na kusurwar gini mai daraja, wanda kuma ya dogara gare shi ba zai taɓa kunyata ba.”
7 Unto you, then, is the honour—[unto you] who believe; but, unto such as disbelieve, The stone which the builders rejected, —The same, hath become head of the corner,
A gare ku da kuka gaskata, wannan dutse mai daraja ne. Amma ga waɗanda ba su gaskata ba, “Dutsen da magina suka ƙi ya zama dutsen kusurwar gini,
8 And a stone to strike against, and a rock to stumble over: Who stumble because, unto the word, they do not yield, —unto which also they have been appointed;
kuma, “Dutse ne da yake sa mutane tuntuɓe kuma fā ne da yake sa su fāɗi.” Sun yi tuntuɓe domin sun ƙi su yi biyayya da saƙon, wanda kuma yake abin da aka ƙaddara musu.
9 But, ye, are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for a peculiar treasure, that, the excellences, ye may tell forth, of him who, out of darkness, hath called you into his marvellous light: —
Amma ku zaɓaɓɓu ne, ƙungiyar firistocin babban Sarki, al’umma mai tsarki, jama’a mallakar Allah, domin ku shaida yabon shi wanda ya kira ku daga cikin duhu zuwa haskensa mai banmamaki.
10 Who, at one time, were a No-people, but, now, are a people of God, —who had not been enjoying mercy, but, now, have received mercy.
Dā ku ba mutane ba ne, amma yanzu ku mutanen Allah ne; Dā ba ku karɓi jinƙai ba, amma yanzu kun karɓi jinƙai.
11 Beloved! I exhort you, as sojourners and pilgrims, to abstain from fleshly covetings, such as take the field against the soul;
Abokaina ƙaunatattu, ina roƙonku, a matsayin bare da kuma baƙi a duniya, ku rabu da sha’awace-sha’awacen zunubin da suke yaƙi da ranku.
12 Having, your behaviour among the nations, honourable, —in order that, wherein they speak against you as evil-doers, they may, owing to the honourable works they are permitted to behold, glorify God in the day of visitation.
Ku yi irin rayuwa mai kyau a cikin masu bautar gumaka, yadda ko da sun zarge ku da yin laifi, za su iya ganin ayyukanku nagari, su ɗaukaka Allah a ranar da zai ziyarce mu.
13 Submit yourselves unto every human creation, for the Lord’s sake, —whether unto a king, as one that protecteth,
Saboda Ubangiji, ku yi biyayya ga kowace hukumar da aka kafa cikin mutane, ko ga sarki, a matsayi wanda ya fi iko,
14 Or unto governors, as, through him, sent—for vengeance on evil-doers, but praise to such as do good;
ko ga gwamnoni, waɗanda ya aika domin su hukunta masu laifi su kuma yabi masu aikata abin da yake daidai.
15 Because, so, is the will of God, —by doing good, to be putting to silence, the ignorance of heedless men:
Gama nufin Allah ne cewa ta wurin yin nagarta za ku toshe jahilcin marasa azanci.
16 As free, yet, not as a cloak of vice, holding your freedom, but, as God’s servants.
Ku yi rayuwa kamar mutanen da aka’yantar, sai dai kada ku yi amfani da’yancinku a matsayin hujjar aikata mugunta; ku yi rayuwa kamar bayin Allah.
17 Unto all men, give honour, unto the brotherhood, shew love, unto God, give reverence, the king, hold in honour.
Ku nuna ladabin da ya dace ga kowa. Ku ƙaunaci’yan’uwantakar masu bi, ku ji tsoron Allah, ku girmama sarki.
18 Ye domestics, submitting yourselves, in all reverence, unto your masters, —not only unto the good and considerate, but also unto the perverse;
Bayi, ku yi biyayya ga iyayengijinku da matuƙar ladabi, ba kawai ga waɗanda suke da kirki da masu sauƙinkai ba, amma har ga masu zafin rai ma.
19 For, this, is thankworthy, —If, for the sake of conscience towards God, one beareth griefs, suffering wrongfully, —
Gama abin yabo ne in mutum ya yi haƙuri cikin zafin wahalar rashin adalci saboda yana sane da Allah.
20 For what sort of honour is it—if, committing sin, and being buffeted, ye endure it? But, if, doing good, and suffering, ye endure it, this, is thankworthy with God.
Amma ina abin taƙama in kuka sha duka saboda kun yi laifi kuka kuma jimre? Sai dai in kuka sha wahala saboda yin nagari kuka kuma jimre, abin yabo ne a gaban Allah.
21 For, hereunto, have ye been called; because, Christ also, suffered in your behalf, unto you, leaving behind a pattern, that ye might follow in his steps:
Ga wannan ne aka kira ku, domin Kiristi ya sha wahala dominku, ya bar muku gurbin da ya kamata ku bi.
22 Who did not, a sin, commit, neither was deceit found in his mouth, —
“Bai taɓa yin laifi ba sam, ba a kuma sami ƙarya a bakinsa ba.”
23 Who, being reviled, was not reviling again, suffering, he was not threatening, but was making surrender unto him that judgeth righteously, —
Sa’ad da suka zazzage shi, bai rama ba; sa’ad da ya sha wahala, bai yi barazana ba. A maimakon haka, ya miƙa kansa ga wanda yake shari’ar adalci.
24 Who, our sins, himself, bare up, in his body, unto the tree, in order that we, from our sins getting away, in righteousness, might live, —by whose stripes, ye have been healed;
Shi kansa ya ɗauki zunubanmu a jikinsa a kan itace, domin mu mutu ga zunubai mu kuma rayu ga adalci; ta wurin raunukansa ne kuka sami warkarwa.
25 For ye were as sheep going astray, but have now turned back unto the shepherd and overseer of your souls.
Gama dā kuna kama da tumakin da suka ɓace, amma yanzu kun dawo ga Makiyayi da kuma Mai lura da rayukanku.
