Nehemiah 9
1 Now on the twenty-fourth day of the same month the people of Israel were assembled and they were fasting, and they were wearing sackcloth, and they put dust on their heads.
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 The descendants of Israel separated themselves from all the foreigners. They stood and confessed their own sins and the evil actions of their ancestors.
Waɗanda suke zuriyar Isra’ilawa suka ware kansu daga dukan baƙi. Suka tsaya, suka kuma furta zunubansu da muguntar kakanninsu.
3 They stood up in their places, and for one-fourth of the day they read from the book of the law of Yahweh their God. For another fourth of the day they were confessing and bowing down before 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 The Levites, Jeshua, Bani, Kadmiel, Shebaniah, Bunni, Sherebiah, Bani, and Kenani, stood on the stairs and they called out with a loud voice to 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 the Levites, Jeshua, and Kadmiel, Bani, Hashabneiah, Sherebiah, Hodiah, Shebaniah, and Pethahiah said, “Stand up and give praise to Yahweh your God forever and ever.” “May they bless your glorious name, and may it be exalted above every 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 You are Yahweh. You alone. You have made heaven, the highest heavens, with all their host, and the earth and everything on it, and the seas and all that is in them. You give life to them all, and the host of heaven worship you.
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 You are Yahweh, the God who chose Abram, and brought him out of Ur of the Chaldees, and gave him the 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 You found his heart was faithful before you, and you made with him the covenant to give to his descendants the land of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, the Perizzites, the Jebusites, and the Girgashites. You have kept your promise because you are righteous.
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 You saw the affliction of our forefathers in Egypt and you heard their cry by the Sea of Reeds.
“Ka ga wahalar kakanninmu a Masar; ka kuwa ji kukansu a Jan Teku.
10 You gave signs and wonders against Pharaoh, and all his servants, and on all the people of his land, for you knew that the Egyptians acted with arrogance against them. But you made a name for yourself which stands to 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 Then you divided the sea before them, so that they went through the middle of the sea on the dry land; and threw those who pursued them into the depths, as a stone into deep 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 You led them by a pillar of cloud during by day, and by a pillar of fire during the night to light the way for them to 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 On Mount Sinai you came down and you spoke with them from heaven and gave to them righteous decrees and true 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 You made your holy Sabbath known to them, and you gave them commandments and statutes and a law through Moses your servant.
Ka sanar da su Asabbacinka mai tsarki, ka kuma ba su umarnai, da farillai, da kuma dokoki ta wurin bawanka Musa.
15 You gave them bread from heaven for their hunger, and water from a rock for their thirst, and you said to them to go in to possess the land you swore on oath 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 ancestors acted disrespectfully, and they were stubborn, and did not listen to your commandments.
“Amma su kakanninmu, suka yi fariya da taurinkai, ba su kuwa yi biyayya ga umarnanka ba.
17 They refused to listen, and they did not think about the wonders that you had done among them, but became stubborn, and in their rebellion they appointed a leader to return to their slavery. But you are a God who is full of forgiveness, gracious and compassionate, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love. You did not abandon 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 Even when they had cast a calf out of molten metal and said, 'This is your God who brought you up out of Egypt,' and had committed great blasphemies,
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 you, in your compassion, did not abandon them in the wilderness. The pillar of cloud to lead them on the way did not leave them during day, neither did the pillar of fire by night to light the way for them to 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 Your good Spirit you gave them to instruct them, and your manna you did not withhold from their mouths, and water you gave 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 For forty years you provided for them in the wilderness, and they lacked nothing. Their clothes did not wear out and their feet did not swell.
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 You gave them kingdoms and peoples, assigning to them every corner of the land. Then they took possession of the land of Sihon 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 You made their children as numerous as the stars of heaven, and you brought them into the land that you told their ancestors to go in and 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 people went in and possessed the land and you subdued before them the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites. You gave them into their hands, with their kings and the peoples of the land, that Israel might do with them as they pleased.
’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 They captured the fortified cities and a productive land, and they captured houses full of all good things, cisterns already cut out, vineyards and olive orchards, and fruit trees in abundance. So they ate and were satisfied and grew fat and enjoyed themselves in your 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 Then they became disobedient and they rebelled against you. They threw your law behind their backs. They murdered your prophets who had warned them to turn back to you, and they committed great blasphemies.
“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 So you gave them into the hand of their enemies, who made them suffer. In the time of their suffering, they cried out to you, and you heard them from heaven, and because of your great mercies you sent them rescuers who rescued them out of the hand of their enemies.
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 after they had rest, they did evil again before you, and you abandoned them to the hand of their enemies, so their enemies ruled over them. Yet when they returned and cried out to you, you heard from heaven, and many times because of your compassion you rescued them.
“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 You warned them so they might turn back to your law. Yet they acted arrogantly and did not listen to your commands. They sinned against your decrees which give life to anyone who obeys them. They gave the stubborn shoulder-blade and stiffened their neck and refused to listen.
“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 For many years you put up with them and warned them by your Spirit through your prophets. Yet they did not listen. So you gave them into the hand of the neighboring peoples.
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 But in your great mercies you did not make a complete end of them, or forsake them, for you are a gracious and merciful God.
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, our God—you great, mighty, and awesome God who keep your covenant and steadfast love—do not let all this hardship seem little to you that has come on us, on our kings, on our princes, and on our priests, and on our prophets, and on our ancestors, and on all your people from the days of the kings of Assyria until today.
“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 You are just in everything that has come on us, for you have dealt faithfully, but we have acted wickedly.
Cikin dukan abubuwan da suka faru da mu, ka kasance mai adalci; ka yi aminci, yayinda mu kuwa muka aikata mugu.
34 Our kings, our princes, our priests, and our ancestors have not kept your law, nor paid attention to your commandments or your covenant decrees by which you warned 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 Even in their own kingdom, while they enjoyed your great goodness to them, in the large and productive land you set before them, they did not serve you or turn away from their evil ways.
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 Now we are slaves in the land you gave our ancestors to enjoy its fruit and its good gifts, and behold, we are slaves in it!
“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 The rich yield from our land goes to the kings you have set over us because of our sins. They rule over our bodies and over our livestock as they please. We are in great distress.
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 Because of all this, we make a firm covenant in writing. On the sealed document are the names of our princes, Levites, and priests.”
“Saboda wannan duka, muna yin zaunannen alkawari, muna sa shi a rubuce, shugabanninmu kuwa da Lawiyawanmu, da firistocinmu suna buga hatimansu a kai.”
