Nehemiah 9

1 Now, on the twenty-fourth day of this month, were the sons of Israel gathered together, with fasting and with sackcloth, having earth upon them.

A rana ta ashirin da huɗu ga watan nan, Isra’ilawa suka taru, suna yin azumi, suna sa rigunan makoki, suna kuma zuba toka a kansu.

2 And the seed of Israel separated themselves from all the sons of the foreigner, —and stood and made confession over their own sins, and the iniquities of their fathers.

Waɗanda suke zuriyar Isra’ilawa suka ware kansu daga dukan baƙi. Suka tsaya, suka kuma furta zunubansu da muguntar kakanninsu.

3 So they stood up in their place, and read in the book of the law of Yahweh their God, a fourth part of the day, —and, a fourth part, they were making confession and bowing themselves down, unto Yahweh their God.

Sa’ad da suke nan a tsaye, aka ɗauki awa uku ana karanta Littafin Dokar Ubangiji Allahnsu. Aka kuma ɗauki awa uku ana sujada ga Ubangiji Allahnsu.

4 Then stood up on the platform of the Levites, Jeshua and Bani, Kadmiel, Shebaniah, Bunni, Sherebiah, Bani, Chenani, —and made outcry, with a loud voice, unto Yahweh their God.

A kan dakalin kuwa akwai Lawiyawa, wato, Yeshuwa, Bani, Kadmiyel, Shebaniya, Bunni, Sherebiya, Bani da Kenani tsaye, waɗanda suka kira da babbar murya ga Ubangiji Allahnsu.

5 Then said the Levites—Jeshua and Kadmiel, Bani, Hashabneiah, Sherebiah, Hodiah, Shebaniah, Pethahiah, Stand up, bless Yahweh your God, from age to age, —Yea let them bless thy glorious Name, which is exalted above all blessing and praise.

Lawiyawan nan, Yeshuwa, Kadmiyel, Bani, Hashabnehiya, Sherebiya, Hodiya, Shebaniya da Fetahahiya, suka ce, “Ku miƙe tsaye ku yabi Ubangiji Allahnku, wanda yake har abada abadin.” “Albarka ta tabbata ga sunanka mai ɗaukaka, bari kuma a ɗaukaka shi bisa dukan albarka da yabo.

6 Thou, art Yahweh, thou alone, Thou, didst make the heavens, the heavens of heavens, and all their host, the earth and all that is thereon, the seas and all that is therein, and, thou, holdest them all in life, —and, the host of the heavens, unto thee, are bowing down.

Kai kaɗai ne Ubangiji. Kai ka yi sammai, har ma da sama sammai, da dukan rundunar taurari, da duniya da kuma dukan abin da yake cikinta, da tekuna da dukan abubuwan da suke cikinsu. Ka ba da rai ga kome, kuma rundunonin sama suna maka sujada.

7 Thou, art Yahweh, God, who didst choose Abram, and broughtest him forth out of Ur of the Chaldees, —and madest his name Abraham;

“Kai ne Ubangiji Allah, wanda ya zaɓi Abram, ya fitar da shi daga Ur na Kaldiyawa, ya kuma ba shi suna Ibrahim.

8 and didst find his heart faithful before thee, and didst solemnize with him a covenant, to give the land of the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Amorite, and the Perizzite, and the Jebusite, and the Girgashite, —to give it unto his seed, —and didst confirm thy words, for, righteous, thou art.

Kai ka sami zuciyarsa da aminci a gare ka, ka kuma yi alkawari da shi cewa za ka ba zuriyarsa ƙasar Kan’aniyawa, da ta Hittiyawa, da ta Amoriyawa, da ta Ferizziyawa, da ta Yebusiyawa, da kuma ta Girgashiyawa. Ka kiyaye alkawarinka domin kai mai adalci ne.

9 Yea thou sawest the affliction of our fathers, in Egypt, and, their outcry, thou heardest, by the Red Sea;

“Ka ga wahalar kakanninmu a Masar; ka kuwa ji kukansu a Jan Teku.

10 and didst grant signs and wonders against Pharaoh, and against all his servants, and against all the people of his land, for thou hadst taken note, that they ruled proudly over them, —and so thou didst make thee a name, as at this day.

Ka aika da alamu masu banmamaki da al’ajabai a kan Fir’auna, a kan dukan shugabanninsa da kuma a kan dukan mutanen ƙasarsa, gama ka ga irin danniyar da suka yi wa mutanenka. Ka samo wa kanka suna, wadda ta dawwama har yă zuwa yau.

11 And, the sea, didst thou cleave asunder before them, and they passed through the midst of the sea, on dry ground, —whereas, their pursuers, thou didst cast into the depths like a stone, into the mighty waters,

Ka raba teku a gaban kakanninmu, saboda su wuce cikinsa a busasshiyar ƙasa, amma ka hallaka masu binsu cikin zurfafa, nutse kamar dutse a cikin ruwa.

12 And, in a pillar of cloud, didst thou lead them, by day, —and in a pillar of fire, by night, to light up for them the way wherein they should go.

Da rana ka bishe kakanninmu da girgije, da dare kuwa ka bishe su da ginshiƙin wuta don ka ba su haske a hanyar da za su bi.

13 And, upon Mount Sinai, camest thou down, and spakest with them out of the heavens, —and gavest them just regulations, and faithful laws, good statutes and commandments.

“Ka sauko a kan Dutsen Sinai; ka yi musu magana daga sama. Ka ba su ƙa’idodi da dokokin da suke masu adalci da kuma daidai, ka ba su farillai da umarnai da suke da kyau.

14 And, thy holy sabbath, didst thou make known to them, —and, commandments and statutes and a law, didst thou command them, through Moses thy servant.

Ka sanar da su Asabbacinka mai tsarki, ka kuma ba su umarnai, da farillai, da kuma dokoki ta wurin bawanka Musa.

15 And, bread out of the heavens, didst thou give them, for their hunger, and, waters out of the cliff, didst thou bring them, for their thirst, —and badest them go in to take possession of the land, which thou hadst lifted thy hand to give them.

Cikin yunwansu ka ba su burodi daga sama, cikin ƙishirwansu kuma ka fitar musu ruwa daga dutse. Ka faɗa musu su shiga su mallaki ƙasar da ka rantse ta wurin ɗaga hannu cewa za ka ba su.

16 But, they and our fathers, dealt proudly, —and hardened their neck, and hearkened not unto thy commandments;

“Amma su kakanninmu, suka yi fariya da taurinkai, ba su kuwa yi biyayya ga umarnanka ba.

17 but refused to hearken, neither kept in mind thy wonders which thou hadst done with them, but they hardened their neck, and appointed a head that they might return to their servitude, in their perverseness. But, thou, art a God of forgivenesses, gracious and full of compassion, slow to anger and abounding in lovingkindness, and didst not forsake them.

Suka ƙi su saurare ka, suka kāsa tuna da mu’ujizan da ka aikata a cikinsu. Suka yi taurinkai, cikin tawayensu kuma suka naɗa shugaba don su koma bautarsu. Amma kai Allah ne mai gafartawa, mai alheri da jinƙai, mai jinkirin fushi, mai yalwar ƙauna. Saboda haka ba ka yashe su ba,

18 Yea, although they made them a molten calf, and said, This, is thy God, that brought thee up out of Egypt, —and wrought great insults,

ko ma sa’ad da suka yi wa kansu siffar ɗan maraƙi, suka ce, ‘Wannan shi ne allahnku, wanda ya fitar da ku daga Masar,’ ko sa’ad da suka yi saɓo mai bantsoro.

19 yet, thou, in thine abounding compassions, didst not forsake them in the desert, —the pillar of cloud, departed not from over them by day, to lead them in the way, nor the pillar of fire by night, to light up for them the way wherein they should go.

“Saboda jinƙanka mai girma, ba ka yashe su a hamada ba. Da rana, ginshiƙin girgije bai daina bishe su a hanyarsu ba, da dare kuma ginshiƙin wuta bai daina haskakawa a hanyar da za su bi ba.

20 And, thy Good Spirit, thou gavest, to instruct them, —and, thy manna, thou withheldest not from their mouth, and, water, thou gavest them, for their thirst.

Ka ba da Ruhunka mai kyau don yă koyar da su. Ba ka janye Manna naka daga bakunansu ba, ka kuma ba su ruwa don ƙishirwansu.

21 Yea, forty years, didst thou sustain them in the desert, they lacked nothing, —their mantles, waxed not old and, their feet, swelled not.

Shekaru arba’in ka riƙe su a cikin hamada; ba su rasa kome ba, rigunansu ba su yage ba, ƙafafunsu kuwa ba su kumbura ba.

22 And thou gavest them kingdoms, and peoples, and allotted to each of them a corner, —and they took possession of the land of Sihon, and the land of the king of Heshbon, and the land of Og king of Bashan.

“Ka ba su mulkoki da al’ummai, kana ba su har ma da ƙasashen da suke jeji. Suka ci ƙasar Sihon na sarkin Heshbon da ƙasar Og inda sarkin Bashan yake mulki.

23 Their children also, didst thou multiply, like the stars of the heavens, —and didst bring them into the land which thou hadst promised their fathers they should enter to possess;

Ka sa’ya’yansu maza suka yi yawa kamar taurarin sararin sama, ka kuma kawo su cikin ƙasar da ka faɗa wa kakanninsu su shiga su mallake.

24 so the children entered and possessed the land, and thou subduedst before them the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites, and deliveredst them into their hand, —with their kings, and the peoples of the land, to do with them according to their pleasure;

’Ya’yansu maza suka shiga suka kuma mallaki ƙasar. A gabansu ka rinjayi Kan’aniyawan da suke zama a cikin ƙasar; ka ba da Kan’aniyawa a gare su, tare da sarakunansu da kuma mutanen ƙasar, su yi da su yadda suke so.

25 and they captured fortified cities and a fat soil, and took possession of houses full of every good thing, wells digged, vineyards and oliveyards and fruit-trees, in abundance, —so they did eat and were filled and became fat, and luxuriated in thy great goodness.

Suka kame birane masu katanga masu ƙarfi, da ƙasa masu ba da amfani; suka mallaki gidaje cike da kowane irin abu mai kyau, da rijiyoyin da aka riga aka haƙa, da gonakin inabi, da gonakin itatuwan zaitun da kuma itatuwan ba da’ya’ya a yalwace a ciki. Suka ci suka ƙoshi, suka kuma yi ƙiba; suka ji daɗi cikin alherinka mai girma.

26 But they murmured and rebelled against thee, and cast thy law behind their back, and, thy prophets, they slew, who testified against them that they might turn them back unto thee, —and they wrought great insults.

“Amma suka yi rashin biyayya suka kuma yi tawaye gare ka; suka sa dokarka a bayansu. Suka kashe annabawanka waɗanda suka gargaɗe su don su mai da su gare ka; suka aikata saɓo mai bantsoro.

27 Therefore didst thou deliver them into the hand of their adversaries, who distressed them, —and, in the time of their distress, they made outcry unto thee, and, thou, out of the heavens, didst hear, and, according to thine abounding compassions, gavest them saviours, that they might save them out of the hand of their adversaries.

Saboda haka ka miƙa su ga abokan gābansu waɗanda suka yi musu danniya. Amma sa’ad da ake danniyarsu sai suka yi kuka gare ka. Daga sama ka ji su, cikin jinƙanka mai girma kuwa ka ba su mai ceto, wanda ya fisshe su daga hannun abokan gābansu.

28 But, as soon as they had rest, they again wrought wickedness before thee, —and thou didst leave them in the hand of their enemies, who bare rule over them, yet, when they again made outcry unto thee, thou, from the heavens, didst hear and didst deliver them according to thy compassions, many times;

“Amma nan da nan, da suka sami hutu, sai suka sāke aikata abin da yake mugu a idonka. Sai ka yashe su ga hannun abokan gābansu don su yi mulki a kansu. Sa’ad da suka yi kuka kuma gare ka, ka ji daga sama, cikin jinƙanka kuma ka fisshe su sau da sau.

29 and didst testify against them, to bring them back unto thy law, yet, they, dealt proudly, and hearkened not unto thy commandments, and, against thy regulations, they sinned, the which—if any son of earth shall do—then shall he live by them, —and yielded a rebellious shoulder, and, their neck, they stiffened, and hearkened not.

“Ka gargaɗe su su dawo ga dokarka, amma suka yi fariya, suka bijire wa umarnanka. Suka yi zunubi game da farillanka waɗanda ta wurinsu ne mutum zai rayu in ya yi biyayya da su. Cikin taurinkai suka juye bayansu daga gare ka, suka zama masu taurinkai, suka kuma ƙi su saurara.

30 And thou didst suffer many years to pass over them, and didst testify against them by thy Spirit through thy prophets, yet did they not give ear, —therefore didst thou deliver them into the hand of the peoples of the lands.

Shekaru masu yawa ka yi haƙuri da su. Ta wurin Ruhunka ka gargaɗe su ta wurin annabawa. Duk da haka ba su kasa kunne ba, saboda haka ka miƙa su ga maƙwabtansu.

31 Yet, in thine abounding compassions, thou didst not make of them an end, neither didst thou forsake them, —for, a GOD gracious and full of compassion, thou art.

Amma cikin tausayinka mai girma ba ka kawo su ga ƙarshe ko ka yashe su ba, gama kai Allah ne mai alheri da kuma mai jinƙai.

32 Now, therefore, O our God—the GOD great, mighty, and fearful—keeping the covenant and the lovingkindness, let not all the trouble seem little before thee, which hath come upon us—on our kings, on our rulers, and on our priests, and on our prophets, and on our fathers, and on all thy people, —from the days of the kings of Assyria, until this day.

“To yanzu, ya Allahnmu, mai girma, mai iko, da kuma mai banrazana, wanda yake kiyaye alkawarinsa na ƙauna, kada ka bar dukan wannan wahala ta zama kamar marar muhimmanci a idanunka, wahalar da ta zo a kanmu, a kan sarakunanmu da shugabanni, a kan firistocinmu da annabawa, a kan kakanninmu da kuma dukan mutanenka, daga kwanakin sarakunan Assuriya har yă zuwa yau.

33 But, thou, art righteous, as to all that hath fallen upon us, —for, faithfulness, hast thou wrought, whereas, we, have been lawless;

Cikin dukan abubuwan da suka faru da mu, ka kasance mai adalci; ka yi aminci, yayinda mu kuwa muka aikata mugu.

34 and, our kings, our rulers, our priests, and our fathers, have not kept thy law, —nor given heed unto thy commandments, or unto thy testimonies, wherewith thou hast testified against them.

Sarakunanmu, da shugabanninmu, da firistocinmu da kuma kakanninmu ba su bi dokarka ba, ba su ma mai da hankali ga umarnanka ko gargaɗin da ka yi musu ba.

35 But, they, in their kingdom, and in thine abundant goodness which thou gavest them, and in the broad and fat land which thou didst set before them, did not serve thee, neither turned they from their wicked doings.

Ko ma yayinda suke a masarautarsu, suna jin daɗin girmar kyautatawarka gare su, cikin ƙasar mai girma, da kuma mai fāɗin da ka ba su, ba su bauta maka ko su juye daga mugayen hanyoyinsu ba.

36 Lo! we, to-day, are bondmen—even upon the land which thou gavest our fathers to eat the fruit thereof and the good thereof, lo! we, are bondmen;

“Amma duba, mu bayi ne a yau, bayi a ƙasar da ka ba kakanninmu don su ci amfaninta da kuma waɗansu abubuwa masu kyau da take bayarwa.

37 and, the increase thereof, aboundeth unto the kings whom thou hast set over us, for our sins, —and, over our bodies, are they bearing rule, and over our cattle, at their pleasure, and, in great distress, we are.

Saboda zunubanmu, yalwar girbin da muke samu yana tafiya wurin sarakunan da ka sa a kanmu. Suna mulki bisa jikunanmu, da bisa garkenmu yadda suka ga dama. Muna cikin baƙin ciki.

38 Seeing, therefore, all this, we, are plighting our faith, and putting it in writing, —and, upon the sealed scroll, are our rulers, our Levites, our priests.

“Saboda wannan duka, muna yin zaunannen alkawari, muna sa shi a rubuce, shugabanninmu kuwa da Lawiyawanmu, da firistocinmu suna buga hatimansu a kai.”
