2 Korintiyawa 12
1 Dole in ci gaba da yin taƙama. Ko da yake ba za tă amfane ni ba, zan yi magana a kan ru’uyoyi da wahayoyi waɗanda na karɓa daga Ubangiji.
It is necessary to boast, though it is not profitable. But I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord.
2 Na san wani a cikin Kiristi wanda shekaru goma sha huɗu da suka wuce an ɗauke zuwa sama ta uku. Ko a cikin jiki ne, ko kuwa ba a cikin jiki ba, ni dai ban sani ba, Allah ne ya sani.
I know a man in Christ, fourteen years ago (whether in the body, I do not know, or whether out of the body, I do not know; God knows), such a one was caught up into the third heaven.
3 Na kuma san cewa wannan mutum, ko a cikin jiki ne, ko kuma ba a cikin jiki ba, ni dai ban sani ba, amma Allah ne ya sani,
I know such a man (whether in the body, or apart from the body, I do not know; God knows),
4 an ɗauke shi ne zuwa aljanna. Ya ji waɗansu abubuwa waɗanda ba zai iya faɗarsu da kalmomi ba, abubuwan da ba a ba wa mutum damar faɗi.
how he was caught up into Paradise, and heard unspeakable words, which it is not lawful for a human to utter.
5 Zan yi taƙama game da mutum irin wannan, sai dai ni ba zan yi taƙama da kaina ba, sai dai a kan rashin ƙarfina.
On behalf of such a one I will boast, but on my own behalf I will not boast, except in my weaknesses.
6 Ko da zan so yin gadara ma, ba zan zama wawa ba, gama gaskiya zan faɗa. Amma na bar zancen haka, don kada wani ya ɗauke ni fiye da yadda yake ganina, ko yadda yake jin maganata.
For if I would desire to boast, I will not be foolish; for I will speak the truth. But I refrain, so that no one may think more of me than that which he sees in me, or hears from me.
7 Don kada in cika da girman kai saboda waɗannan mafifitan manyan wahayoyi, sai aka sa mini wata ƙaya a jikina wadda ta zama ɗan saƙon Shaiɗan, don ta wahalshe ni.
And because of the surpassing greatness of the revelations, therefore, to keep me from exalting myself, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, a messenger of Satan to pound away at me, to keep me from exalting myself.
8 Sau uku na roƙi Ubangiji yă raba ni da wannan abu.
Concerning this thing, I pleaded with the Lord three times that it might depart from me.
9 Amma ya ce mini, “Alherina ya ishe ka, domin a cikin rashin ƙarfi ne ake ganin cikar ikona.” Saboda haka, zan ƙara yin taƙama da farin ciki game da rashin ƙarfina, domin ikon Yesu Kiristi yă zauna tare da ni.
He has said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for power is made perfect in weakness." Most gladly therefore I will rather glory in my weaknesses, that the power of Christ may rest on me.
10 Shi ya sa nake murna cikin rashin ƙarfi, da zagi, da shan wahaloli, da tsanantawa, da matsaloli, saboda Kiristi. Don a sa’ad da nake marar ƙarfi a nan ne nake da ƙarfi.
Therefore I take pleasure in weaknesses, in injuries, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ's sake. For when I am weak, then am I strong.
11 Na yi wauta kam, amma ku ne kuke tilasta mini, ku ne kuwa ya kamata ku yaba mini, domin ba inda na kāsa waɗannan mafiffitan manzanni, ko da yake ni ba kome ba ne.
I have become foolish. You compelled me, for I ought to have been commended by you, for in nothing was I inferior to the very best apostles, though I am nothing.
12 Abubuwan da suke tabbatar da manzo, alamu, abubuwa da kuma ayyukan banmamaki, an aikata su a cikinku da matuƙar nacewa.
Truly the signs of an apostle were worked among you in all patience, in signs and wonders and mighty works.
13 Ta yaya ne darajarku ba tă kai ta sauran ikkilisiyoyi ba, ko kuwa don dai ban nawaita muku ba ne? Ku gafarta mini wannan laifi!
For what is there in which you were made inferior to the rest of the churches, unless it is that I myself was not a burden to you? Forgive me this wrong.
14 Yanzu a shirye nake in ziyarce ku sau na uku, ba zan kuma nawaita muku ba, don ba kayanku nake so ba, ku nake so. Gama ba yara ne da ɗaukar nauyin iyayensu ba, sai dai iyaye ne da ɗaukar nauyin yaran.
Look, for the third time I am ready to come to you, and I will not be a burden to you; for I seek not what is yours, but you. For the children ought not to save up for the parents, but the parents for the children.
15 Don haka ina farin ciki in kashe dukan abin da nake da shi a kanku, har in ba da kaina ma dominku. In na ƙaunace ku fiye da haka, za ku rage ƙaunarku gare ni ne?
I will most gladly spend and be spent for your souls. If I love you more abundantly, am I loved the less?
16 To, shi ke nan, ban nawaita muku ba. Ashe, sai ku ce dabara na yi muku, na shawo kanku ta hanyar yaudara!
But be it so, I did not myself burden you. But, being crafty, I caught you with deception.
17 Na cuce ku ne ta wurin wani daga cikin waɗanda na aiko a gare ku?
Did I take advantage of you by anyone of them whom I have sent to you?
18 Na roƙi Titus ya zo wurinku. Na kuma aiki ɗan’uwanmu tare da shi. Ko Titus ya cuce ku ne? Ba ruhu ɗaya yake bi da mu ba? Ba kuma hanya guda muka bi ba?
I exhorted Titus, and I sent the brother with him. Did Titus take any advantage of you? Did not we walk in the same spirit? Did not we walk in the same steps?
19 Ko tun dā can, kuna tsammani muna kāre kanmu a gare ku ne? A gaban Allah muke magana, kamar waɗanda suke cikin Kiristi. Ƙaunatattuna, kome da muke yi, muna yi ne don inganta ku ne.
Have you been thinking all this time that we have been defending ourselves before you? In the sight of God we speak in Christ; and all things, beloved, are for your edifying.
20 Gama ina tsoro, in na zo, in tarar da ku dabam da yadda nake so, ku ma ku tarar da ni dabam da yadda kuke so. Ina tsoro kada yă zama akwai faɗa, da kishi, da fushi mai zafi, da tsattsaguwa, da ɓata suna, da gulma, da girman kai, da hargitsi.
For I am afraid that by any means, when I come, I might find you not the way I want to, and that I might be found by you as you do not desire; that by any means there would be strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, factions, slander, whisperings, proud thoughts, riots;
21 Ina tsoro kada sa’ad da na sāke zuwa, Allahna zai ƙasƙantar da ni a gabanku, kuma in yi baƙin ciki saboda waɗanda suka yi zunubi a dā, ba su kuma tuba daga aikin ƙazanta, da na fasikanci, da kuma lalata da suka sa kansu a ciki ba.
that again when I come my God would humble me before you, and I would mourn for many of those who have sinned before now, and not repented of the uncleanness and sexual immorality and lustfulness which they committed.
