1 Peter 3
1 Likewise, ye wives, [be] in subjection to your own husbands; that, if any obey not the word, they also may without the word be won by the deportment of the wives;
Haka ku kuma da kuke matan aure, kuyi biyayya da na ku mazajen, domin in har wadansunsu basa biyayya da maganar Allah, halin matansu ya shawo kansu ba tare da magana ba,
2 While they behold your chaste manner of life [coupled] with fear.
Domin sun ga tsattsakan halinku da ladabinku.
3 Whose adorning let it not be that outward [adorning] of plaiting the hair, and of wearing gold, or of putting on apparel;
Haka ma adonku kar ya zama na kwalliyar waje kitson kai, kayan zinariya ko tufafi masu kawa.
4 But [let it be] the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, [even the ornament] of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price.
Amma bari adon ya zama na mutum na cikin zuciya, kuma adon ya zama kyan nan marar dushewa, na kamun kai da natsatsen ruhu, wanda yake da daraja a gaban Allah.
5 For after this manner in former times the holy women also, who trusted in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection to their own husbands:
Haka tsarkakan mata su ka yi ado kamar haka. Suka dogara ga Allah suka yi biyayya ga mazajensu.
6 Even as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose daughters ye are, as long as ye do well, and are not afraid with any amazement.
Ta haka Saratu ta yi biyayya ga Ibrahim ta kira shi “ubangiji”. Yanzu ku 'ya'yantane in dai kun yi aiki nagari, idan kuma ba ku ji tsoron wahala ba.
7 Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with [them] according to knowledge, giving honor to the wife, as to the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered.
Kamar yadda na fada wa matan aure haka ma mazaje, ku zauna da mata da sanin su raunana ne abokan tarayya ne na karbar baiwar rayuwa. Ku dinga yin haka domin a rika jin addu'oinku.
8 Finally, [be ye] all of one mind, having compassion one of another; love as brethren, [be] pitiful, [be] courteous:
Daga karshe, dukanku ku hada hankulanku, ku zama masu juyayi, masu kauna kamar 'yan'uwa, masu taushin zuciya, masu tawali'u.
9 Not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but on the contrary, blessing; knowing that ye are called to this, that ye should inherit a blessing.
Kada ku rama mugunta da mugunta ko zagi da zagi. A maimakon haka ku cigaba da sa albarka, gama sabili da haka ne musamman aka kiraye ku, domin ku gaji albarka.
10 For he that will love life, and see good days, let him restrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile:
“Wanda duk yake so ya more a rayuwarsa ya kuma ga kwanaki masu alheri, to fa, ya kame harshen sa daga mugunta da lebensa daga maganganun yaudara.
11 Let him shun evil, and do good; let him seek peace, and pursue it.
Ya rabu da mugunta ya aikata abin da ke nagari. Bari ya nemi zaman salama ya kuma dimanceta.
12 For the eyes of the Lord [are] over the righteous, and his ears [are open] to their prayers: but the face of the Lord [is] against them that do evil.
Idanun Ubangiji suna duban adalai, kunnuwansa kuma suna sauraron roke rokensu. Amma fuskar Ubangiji tana gaba da masu aikata mugunta.”
13 And who [is] he that will harm you, if ye are followers of that which is good?
Wanene ya isa ya cuce ku idan kun himmatu ga yin abin da ke nagari?
14 But if ye suffer for righteousness' sake, happy [are ye]: and be not afraid of their terror, neither be troubled;
Amma idan kuna shan wuya saboda adalci, ku masu albarka ne. Kada ku ji tsoron abin da su ke tsoro. Kada ku damu.
15 But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and [be] ready always to [give] an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear.
Maimakon haka, ku kebe Ubangiji a cikin zukatanku cewa shi mai tsarki ne. Kullum ku zauna da shiri domin ku amsa wa mai tambayar ku dalilin sa begenku ga Allah. Amma fa kuyi haka tare da tawali'u da bangirma.
16 Having a good conscience; that, whereas they speak evil of you, as of evil-doers, they may be ashamed that falsely accuse your good deportment in Christ.
Ku zama da tsatsakan lamiri domin mutanen da ke zargin rayuwarku mai kyau cikin Almasihu, su ji kunya domin suna maganar gaba da ku kamar ku mugaye ne.
17 For [it is] better, if the will of God is so, that ye suffer for well-doing, than for evil-doing.
Ya fi kyau, a sha wuya akan aiki nagari, idan nufin Allah ne, da a sha wuya sabili da mugun aiki.
18 For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but made alive by the Spirit:
Almasihu ya sha wahala sau daya tak sabili da zunubai. Shi da ya ke mai adalci ya sha wahala domin mu marasa adalci, domin ya kawo mu ga Allah. Aka kashe shi cikin jiki, amma aka rayar da shi cikin Ruhu.
19 By which also he went and preached to the spirits in prison;
A Ruhu ne, ya je ya yi wa'azi ga ruhohin da ke a yanzu cikin kurkuku.
20 Who formerly were disobedient, when once the long-suffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was preparing, in which few, that is, eight souls, were saved by water.
Sun yi rashin biyayya ne sa'adda hakurin Allah yake jiransu a lokacin Nuhu a zamanin sassaka jirgin ruwa, sai Allah ya tsirar da mutane kalilan wato rayuka takwas daga cikin ruwa.
21 The like figure to which, [even] baptism, doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience towards God, ) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ:
Wannan kwatancin baftismar da take cetonmu yanzu ne, ba kamar ta wanke Dauda daga jiki ba, sai dai ta rokon Allah da lamiri mai kyau ta wurin tashin Yesu Almasihu daga matattu.
22 Who is gone into heaven, and is on the right hand of God; angels, and authorities, and powers being made subject to him.
Ya hau sama. Yana dama ga Allah. Mala'iku, da mulkoki da masu iko dole su yi masa biyayya.
A Dove is Sent Forth from the Ark
