Acts 24
1 After five days, the high priest, Ananias, came down with certain elders and an orator, one Tertullus. They informed the governor against Paul.
Bayan kwana biyar sai Ananiyas babban firist ya tafi Kaisariya tare da waɗansu daga cikin dattawa da kuma wani lauya mai suna Tertullus, suka kawo ƙararsu game da Bulus a gaban gwamna.
2 When he was called, Tertullus began to accuse him, saying, “Seeing that by you we enjoy much peace, and that prosperity is coming to this nation by your foresight,
Sa’ad da aka shigo da Bulus, sai Tertullus ya shiga kai ƙararsa a gaban Felis yana cewa, “Mun daɗe muna zaman lafiya a ƙarƙashinka, hangen nesanka kuma ya kawo gyare-gyare a wannan ƙasa.
3 we accept it in all ways and in all places, most excellent Felix, with all thankfulness.
Ko’ina da kuma a kowace hanya, ya mafifici Felis, mun amince da wannan da godiya marar iyaka.
4 But that I don’t delay you, I entreat you to bear with us and hear a few words.
Amma don kada in ƙara gajiyar da kai, ina roƙonka ka yi haƙuri ka saurari ɗan taƙaitaccen jawabinmu.
5 For we have found this man to be a plague, an instigator of insurrections amongst all the Jews throughout the world, and a ringleader of the sect of the Nazarenes.
“Mun tarar da wannan mutum fitinanne ne, yana tā-da-na-zaune-tsaye a tsakanin Yahudawa ko’ina a duniya. Shi shugaban ɗarikar Nazarawa
6 He even tried to profane the temple, and we arrested him.
har ma ya yi ƙoƙari ya ƙazantar da haikali; shi ya sa muka kama shi.
8 By examining him yourself you may ascertain all these things of which we accuse him.”
Ta wurin bincika shi da kanka za ka gane gaskiyar game da dukan waɗannan zargin da muke kawo a kansa.”
9 The Jews also joined in the attack, affirming that these things were so.
Yahudawa ma suka goyi bayan zargin, suna tabbatar cewa waɗannan abubuwa haka suke.
10 When the governor had beckoned to him to speak, Paul answered, “Because I know that you have been a judge of this nation for many years, I cheerfully make my defence,
Da gwamna ya yi masa alama yă yi magana, sai Bulus ya amsa ya ce, “Na san cewa ka yi shekaru da yawa kana mulki a wannan ƙasa; saboda haka ina farin ciki in kāre kaina.
11 seeing that you can verify that it is not more than twelve days since I went up to worship at Jerusalem.
Da sauƙi za ka iya tabbatar cewa, bai fi kwana goma sha biyu da suka wuce ne na tafi Urushalima, domin yin sujada ba.
12 In the temple they didn’t find me disputing with anyone or stirring up a crowd, either in the synagogues or in the city.
Masu zargina ba su same ni ina gardama da kowa a haikali, ko kuma ina tā da hankalin jama’a a majami’u ko kuwa wani wuri dabam a cikin birni ba.
13 Nor can they prove to you the things of which they now accuse me.
Ba kuwa za su iya tabbatar maka ƙarar da suke yi yanzu a kaina ba.
14 But this I confess to you, that according to the Way, which they call a sect, so I serve the God of our fathers, believing all things which are according to the law, and which are written in the prophets;
Amma na yarda cewa ina bauta wa Allah na kakanninmu a matsayin mai bin Hanyar da suke kira ɗarika. Na gaskata dukan abin da ya amince da Doka da yake kuma a rubuce cikin Annabawa,
15 having hope towards God, which these also themselves look for, that there will be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and unjust.
ina kuma da irin bege ɗaya ga Allah yadda mutanen nan suke da shi, cewa akwai tashin matattu masu adalci da masu mugunta duka.
16 In this I also practise always having a conscience void of offence towards God and men.
Saboda haka, ina ƙoƙari kullum in kasance da lamiri mai tsabta a gaban Allah da mutane.
17 Now after some years, I came to bring gifts for the needy to my nation, and offerings;
“Bayan’yan shekaru da dama da ba na nan, sai na dawo Urushalima don in kawo wa mutanena kyautai saboda matalauta in kuma yi sadaka.
18 amid which certain Jews from Asia found me purified in the temple, not with a mob, nor with turmoil.
Ni tsarkake ne sa’ad da suka same ni cikin filin haikalin ina yin haka. Babu taro tare da ni, ba kuwa ina tā da hankali ba.
19 They ought to have been here before you and to make accusation if they had anything against me.
Amma akwai waɗansu Yahudawa daga lardin Asiya, waɗanda ya kamata suna a nan a gabanka su kawo ƙara in suna da wani a kaina.
20 Or else let these men themselves say what injustice they found in me when I stood before the council,
Ko kuwa waɗannan da suke a nan su faɗi laifin da suka same ni da shi sa’ad da na tsaya a gaban Majalisa,
21 unless it is for this one thing that I cried standing amongst them, ‘Concerning the resurrection of the dead I am being judged before you today!’”
sai ko wannan abu ɗaya kaɗai da na ɗaga murya na faɗi yayinda nake tsaye a gabansu cewa, ‘A game da tashin matattu ake mini shari’a a gabanku yau.’”
22 But Felix, having more exact knowledge concerning the Way, deferred them, saying, “When Lysias, the commanding officer, comes down, I will decide your case.”
Sai Felis, wanda yake da cikakken sani game da Hanyar, ya ɗaga sauraron ƙarar. Ya ce, “In Lisiyas shugaban ƙungiyar soja ya iso, zan yanke muku shari’a.”
23 He ordered the centurion that Paul should be kept in custody and should have some privileges, and not to forbid any of his friends to serve him or to visit him.
Ya yi wa jarumin umarni yă tsare Bulus amma yă ba shi’yanci yă kuma bar abokansa su lura da bukatunsa.
24 After some days, Felix came with Drusilla his wife, who was a Jewess, and sent for Paul and heard him concerning the faith in Christ Jesus.
Bayan’yan kwanaki da dama sai Felis ya zo da matarsa Durusilla, mutuniyar Yahuda. Sai ya aika a zo da Bulus ya kuma saurare shi da yake magana game da bangaskiya cikin Kiristi Yesu.
25 As he reasoned about righteousness, self-control, and the judgement to come, Felix was terrified, and answered, “Go your way for this time, and when it is convenient for me, I will summon you.”
Da Bulus ya ci gaba jawabi a kan adalci, kamunkai da kuma hukunci mai zuwa, sai Felis ya tsorata ya ce, “Yanzu kam, ya isa haka! Kana iya tafi. In na sami zarafi, zan kira ka.”
26 Meanwhile, he also hoped that money would be given to him by Paul, that he might release him. Therefore also he sent for him more often and talked with him.
A wani fanni yana sa rai cewa Bulus zai ba shi toshiyar baki, saboda haka ya yi ta aika a kira masa Bulus yă yi magana da shi.
27 But when two years were fulfilled, Felix was succeeded by Porcius Festus, and desiring to gain favour with the Jews, Felix left Paul in bonds.
Da shekaru biyu suka wuce, sai Forsiyus Festus, ya gāji Felis, amma domin Felis ya so yă biya wa Yahudawa bukata, sai ya bar Bulus a kurkuku.
