Acts 8
1 Saul was consenting to his death. A great persecution arose against the assembly which was in Jerusalem in that day. They were all scattered abroad throughout the regions of Judea and Samaria, except for the apostles.
Bulus ya amince da mutuwarsa. A wannan rana tsanani mai zafi ya fara tasowa akan Iklisiya da take a Urushalima, sai masu bangaskiya duka suka bazu ko ina a cikin garuruwan Yahudiya da Samariya, sai manzannin kadai aka bari.
2 Devout men buried Stephen and lamented greatly over him.
Amintattun mutane suka bizne Istifanus suka yi babban makoki game da shi.
3 But Saul ravaged the assembly, entering into every house and dragged both men and women off to prison.
Amma Shawulu ya yi wa Iklisiya mugunta kwarai, ya dinga shiga gida gida yana jawo mutane maza da mata, kuma yana kulle su cikin kurkuku.
4 Therefore those who were scattered abroad went around preaching the word.
Duk da haka masu bangaskiyar nan da suka warwatsu suka tafi suka dinga yada wa'azin maganar.
5 Philip went down to the city of Samaria and proclaimed to them the Christ.
Filibus ya tafi can Samariya ya yi shelar Almasihu.
6 The multitudes listened with one accord to the things that were spoken by Philip when they heard and saw the signs which he did.
Da taron mutane suka ji kuma suka ga alamun da Filibus yake yi, sai suka mai da hankali dukansu domin su ji abinda yake fadi.
7 For unclean spirits came out of many of those who had them. They came out, crying with a loud voice. Many who had been paralysed and lame were healed.
Domin kazaman ruhohi sun fito daga cikin mutane da yawa da suka saurare shi suna kuka da kururuwa; nakasassun mutane dayawa da guragu suka warke.
8 There was great joy in that city.
Kuma aka yi farin ciki mai girma a birnin.
9 But there was a certain man, Simon by name, who used to practise sorcery in the city and amazed the people of Samaria, making himself out to be some great one,
Amma akwai wani mutum a cikin birnin da ake kira Siman, wanda tun farko shi masafi ne da kuma dan dabo, yana yi wa mutanen Samariya abubuwan ban mamaki, yayin da yake kiran kansa wani mai muhimmanci.
10 to whom they all listened, from the least to the greatest, saying, “This man is that great power of God.”
Dukan Samariyawa, manya da yara, suna sauraronsa, su kan ce, ''Wannan mutum shine ikon Allahn nan wanda ake kira mai girma.''
11 They listened to him because for a long time he had amazed them with his sorceries.
Suna sauraron sa, domin ya dade yana yi masu abubuwan mamaki da tsafe-tsafensa.
12 But when they believed Philip preaching good news concerning God’s Kingdom and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptised, both men and women.
Amma da suka yi bangaskiya da wa'azin bisharar da Filibus yake yi game da mulkin Allah da sunan Yesu Almasihu, sai aka yi masu Baftisma dukansu maza da mata.
13 Simon himself also believed. Being baptised, he continued with Philip. Seeing signs and great miracles occurring, he was amazed.
Har shima Siman da kansa ya ba da gaskiya. Bayan an yi masa Baftisma ya cigaba da bin Filibus, da ya ga ana nuna alamu da manyan ayyuka, sai ya yi mamaki.
14 Now when the apostles who were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent Peter and John to them,
Da manzannin da ke Urushalima suka ji labarin Samariya ta karbi maganar Allah, sai suka aika masu Bitrus da Yahaya.
15 who, when they had come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Spirit;
Da suka iso, suka yi masu addu'a, domin su karbi Ruhu Mai Tsarki.
16 for as yet he had fallen on none of them. They had only been baptised in the name of Christ Jesus.
Domin har wannan lokaci, Ruhu Mai Tsarki bai sauko kan kowannensu ba; an dai yi masu baftisma ne kadai cikin sunan Ubangiji Yesu.
17 Then they laid their hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit.
Sai Bitrus da Yahaya suka dora masu hannuwansu, sai suka karbi Ruhu Mai Tsarki.
18 Now when Simon saw that the Holy Spirit was given through the laying on of the apostles’ hands, he offered them money,
Sa'adda Siman yaga ana bayar da Ruhu Mai Tsarki ta wurin dorawar hannuwan manzanni, ya basu kudi.
19 saying, “Give me also this power, that whomever I lay my hands on may receive the Holy Spirit.”
Ya ce, “Ku bani wannan iko, ni ma, don duk wanda na dora wa hannu ya karbi Ruhu Mai Tsarki.''
20 But Peter said to him, “May your silver perish with you, because you thought you could obtain the gift of God with money!
Amma Bitrus yace masa, ''Azurfarka ta lalace tare da kai, saboda kana tunanin za ka malaki baiwar Ubangiji da kudi.
21 You have neither part nor lot in this matter, for your heart isn’t right before God.
Baka da wani rabo a wannan al'amari, domin zuciyarka ba daidai take da Allah ba.
22 Repent therefore of this, your wickedness, and ask God if perhaps the thought of your heart may be forgiven you.
Saboda haka ka tuba daga wannan muguntarka, ka kuma yi addu'a ga Ubangiji, domin mai yiwuwa ya gafarta maka game da manufar zuciyarka.
23 For I see that you are in the poison of bitterness and in the bondage of iniquity.”
Domin na gane kana cikin bacin rai da kuma cikin daurin zunubi.''
24 Simon answered, “Pray for me to the Lord, that none of the things which you have spoken happen to me.”
Siman ya amsa ya ce, ''Kayi addu'a ga Ubangiji domina, kada wani daga cikin abubuwan nan da ka fada ya faru da ni.''
25 They therefore, when they had testified and spoken the word of the Lord, returned to Jerusalem, and preached the Good News to many villages of the Samaritans.
Sa'anda Bitrus da Yahaya suka bada shaida kuma suka fadi maganar Ubangiji, sun koma Urushalima; akan hanya, suka yi wa'azin bishara a kauyukan samariyawa da yawa.
26 Then an angel of the Lord spoke to Philip, saying, “Arise, and go towards the south to the way that goes down from Jerusalem to Gaza. This is a desert.”
Yanzu kuwa Mala'ikan Ubangiji ya yi wa Filibus magana cewa, ''Tashi ka tafi ta kudu da hanyar da ta yi kasa daga Urushalima zuwa Gaza'' (wannan hanyar yana cikin hamada.)
27 He arose and went; and behold, there was a man of Ethiopia, a eunuch of great authority under Candace, queen of the Ethiopians, who was over all her treasure, who had come to Jerusalem to worship.
Ya kuwa tashi ya tafi. Sai ga wani mutum daga Habasha, baba ne mai babban matsayi a karkashin Kandakatu, sarauniyar Habasha. Shine yake mulkin dukan dukiyarta. Ya zo Urushalima domin ya yi ibada.
28 He was returning and sitting in his chariot, and was reading the prophet Isaiah.
Yana komawa zaune cikin karussarsa, kuma yana karanta Littafin annabi Ishaya.
29 The Spirit said to Philip, “Go near, and join yourself to this chariot.”
Ruhun ya ce wa Filibus, ''Ka je kusa da karussar nan.''
30 Philip ran to him, and heard him reading Isaiah the prophet, and said, “Do you understand what you are reading?”
Sai Filibus ya gudu ya same shi, kuma ya ji shi yana karanta littafin annabi Ishaya, sai ya ce, ''Ka fahimci abin da kake karantawa?''
31 He said, “How can I, unless someone explains it to me?” He begged Philip to come up and sit with him.
Bahabashen ya ce. ''Yaya zan iya, idan ba wani ya bishe ni ba?'' Ya roki Filibus ya shigo cikin karussar ya zauna tare da shi.
32 Now the passage of the Scripture which he was reading was this, “He was led as a sheep to the slaughter. As a lamb before his shearer is silent, so he doesn’t open his mouth.
Wannan kuwa shine nassin da Bahabashen yake karantawa, ''An kai shi kamar tunkiya zuwa mayanka; shiru kuma, kamar dan rago a hannun masu sosayarsa, bai bude baki ba.
33 In his humiliation, his judgement was taken away. Who will declare His generation? For his life is taken from the earth.”
Cikin kaskancinsa aka yi masa shari'a da rashin adalci: Wa zai bada tarihin tsararsa? Domin an dauke ransa daga duniya.''
34 The eunuch answered Philip, “Who is the prophet talking about? About himself, or about someone else?”
Sai baban ya tambayi Filibus, ya ce, ''Na roke ka, gaya mani, game da wa annabin yake magana? Da kansa, ko kuwa wani mutum dabam?''
35 Philip opened his mouth, and beginning from this Scripture, preached to him about Jesus.
Filibus ya fara magana; akan littafin Ishaya, ya kuwa yi masa wa'azi akan Yesu.
36 As they went on the way, they came to some water; and the eunuch said, “Behold, here is water. What is keeping me from being baptised?”
Yayin da suke tafiya akan hanya, sai suka iso bakin wani kogi; Baban ya ce, “Duba, ga ruwa anan; me zai hana ayi mani baftisma?”
Filibus ya ce,” Idan ka gaskanta da zuciya daya, ana iya yi maka baftisma.” Sai Bahabashen ya ce, “Na gaskata Yesu Almasihu shine Dan Allah.”
38 He commanded the chariot to stand still, and they both went down into the water, both Philip and the eunuch, and he baptised him.
Sai Bahabashen ya umarta a tsai da karussar. Sai suka zo wurin ruwa dukan su biyu, Filibus da baban, Filibus kuwa yayi masa baftisma.
39 When they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught Philip away, and the eunuch didn’t see him any more, for he went on his way rejoicing.
Yayin da suka fito daga cikin ruwan, Ruhun Ubangiji ya dauke Filibus; baban bai sake ganin shi ba, sai ya ci gaba da tafiyar sa yana murna.
40 But Philip was found at Azotus. Passing through, he preached the Good News to all the cities until he came to Caesarea.
Amma Filibus ya bayyana a Azotus. Ya ratsa wannan yankin yana wa'azin bishara a dukan garuruwan, har sa'anda ya iso Kaisariya.
