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.
To boast indeed does not become me: 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 knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago (whether in the body, or out of the body, I know not, God knoweth) such a one caught up to 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,
And I know such a man (whether then in the body, or out of the body,
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.
I know not, God knoweth) that he was caught up into paradise, and heard unutterable words, which it is not permitted unto man to speak.
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.
Of such a one I will boast; but of myself I will not boast, unless in my infirmities.
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 though I should incline to boast, I shall not be a fool; for I should speak truth. But I forbear least any one should think of me above what he seeth me to be, or heareth 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 least I should be too much lifted up with the abundance of the revelations, there was given me a thorn in the flesh, a messenger of Satan to buffet me, least I should be too much elevated.
8 Sau uku na roƙi Ubangiji yă raba ni da wannan abu.
For this I besought the Lord thrice, 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.
And He said unto me, "My grace is sufficient for thee: for my power is manifested in thy weakness." With the greatest pleasure therefore will I glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon 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.
And therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, and in straits for the sake of Christ: for when I am thus weak, then am I made 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.
Am I become vain in boasting? ye have forced me to it: for I ought to have been recommended by you, as I have in nothing fallen short of the very chiefest of the apostles, though in myself I am nothing.
12 Abubuwan da suke tabbatar da manzo, alamu, abubuwa da kuma ayyukan banmamaki, an aikata su a cikinku da matuƙar nacewa.
The marks indeed of an apostle have been shewn among you with all patience, by signs, and wonders, and miracles.
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 it that ye were inferior in to the rest of the churches, unless it be that I myself was not burdensome to you?--- Forgive me this injury.
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.
Behold, the third time I am ready to come to you, and I will not be burdensome to you: for I seek not your substance, but your selves. For children are not expected to lay 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?
And I will with the greatest pleasure spend and be spent for your souls; even though the more I love you, the less I should be loved.
16 To, shi ke nan, ban nawaita muku ba. Ashe, sai ku ce dabara na yi muku, na shawo kanku ta hanyar yaudara!
Be it so, that I did not burden you myself, yet, may some say, being crafty I over-reached you by subtilty.
17 Na cuce ku ne ta wurin wani daga cikin waɗanda na aiko a gare ku?
But did I make a gain of you by any of those whom I 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 desired Titus to come to you, and with him I sent a brother: did Titus make a gain of you? did we not walk in the same spirit? did we not tread 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.
Do ye then think that we are making apologies to you? No, we speak before God in Christ: and all, my beloved, for your edification.
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 least when I come, I should not find you such as I could wish, and I should be found to you such as ye would not: least there should be contentions, emulations, animosities, strifes, thwartings, whisperings, swellings, tumults: and least,
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.
when I come again, my God should humble me among you, and I should be grieved for many of those who have sinned heretofore, and have not repented of the impurity, and fornication, and lewdness which they have practised.
