1 Thessalonians 3
1 Therefore when we couldn’t stand it any longer, we thought it good to be left behind at Athens alone,
Saboda haka, da bamu iya jimrewa ba, sai mukayi tunanin cewa ya dace mu dakata a Atina tukunna.
2 and sent Timothy, our brother and God’s servant in the Good News of Christ, to establish you and to comfort you concerning your faith,
Sai muka aikaTimoti, dan'uwanmu dakuma bawan Allah a bisharar Almasihu, domin karfafaku ya kuma ta'azantar daku a fannin bangaskiya.
3 that no one would be moved by these afflictions. For you know that we are appointed to this task.
Mun yi haka ne saboda kada waninku ya raunana domin wadannan wahaloli. Domin ku da kanku kun sani cewa don haka aka kiraye mu.
4 For most certainly, when we were with you, we told you beforehand that we are to suffer affliction, even as it happened, and you know.
Hakika, a lokacin da muke tare daku, mun gaya maku cewa muna daf da shan wahala, haka ya kuma kasance, kamar yadda kuka sani.
5 For this cause I also, when I couldn’t stand it any longer, sent that I might know your faith, for fear that by any means the tempter had tempted you, and our labor would have been in vain.
Domin haka, da ban iya jimrewa ba, sai na aiko domin in san yadda bangaskiyar ku take. Watakila ko magafci a wata hanya ya rinjaye ku, sai ya kasance wahalarmu ta zama a banza.
6 But Timothy has just now come to us from you, and brought us glad news of your faith and love, and that you have good memories of us always, longing to see us, even as we also long to see you.
Amma Timoti da ya dawo daga gareku sai ya kawo mamu labari mai dadi akan bangaskiyarku da kuma kaunarku. Yako gaya mana cewa kuna kyakkyawan tunani a kanmu, kuma kuna marmarin ganinmu yadda muke marmarin ganinku.
7 For this cause, brothers, we were comforted over you in all our distress and affliction through your faith.
Sabili da haka, 'yan'uwana, mun sami ta'aziyya tawurinku domin bangaskiyarku, a cikin dukkan bakin cikinmu da shan wuyamu.
8 For now we live, if you stand fast in the Lord.
Yanzu a raye muke, idan kun tsaya da karfi a cikin Ubangiji.
9 For what thanksgiving can we render again to God for you, for all the joy with which we rejoice for your sakes before our God,
Gama wace irin godiya zamu ba Allah sabili da ku, domin dukan farin cikin da muke dashi a gaban Allah domin ku?
10 night and day praying exceedingly that we may see your face and may perfect that which is lacking in your faith?
Dare da rana muke yi maku addu'a sosai domin muga fuskokinku kuma mu cika abin da kuka rasa cikin bangaskiyarku.
11 Now may our God and Father himself, and our Lord Jesus Christ, direct our way to you.
Bari Allah da kuma Ubanmu da kansa, da Ubangijinmu Yesu, ya bida sawayen mu zuwa gareku.
12 May the Lord make you to increase and abound in love toward one another and toward all men, even as we also do toward you,
Bari Ubangiji yasa ku karu ku kuma ribambamya a kaunar 'yan'uwanku da dukan mutane, kamar yadda muke maku.
13 to the end he may establish your hearts blameless in holiness before our God and Father at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all his saints.
Bari yayi haka domin ya karfafa zukatanku marassa abin zargi a cikin tsarki a gaban Allah da Ubanmu a lokacin zuwan Ubangijinmu Yesu da dukan tsarkakansa.
