2 Korintiyawa 4
1 Saboda haka, da yake ta wurin jinƙan Allah ne muke da wannan hidima, ba za mu fid da zuciya ba.
Therefore, since God in His mercy has given us this ministry, we do not lose heart.
2 Ba ruwanmu da ɓoye-ɓoye na munafuncin da suke abubuwan kunya. Ba ruwanmu da ruɗu, ko yin ƙarya da kalmar Allah. Sai dai muna faɗin gaskiya a fili. Ta haka ne kowa zai yi shaidar gaskiyarmu a gaban Allah cikin zuciyarsa.
Instead, we have renounced secret and shameful ways. We do not practice deceit, nor do we distort the word of God. On the contrary, by open proclamation of the truth, we commend ourselves to every man’s conscience in the sight of God.
3 Ko da bishararmu a rufe take, tana a rufe ne ga waɗanda suke hallaka.
And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing.
4 Allahn zamanin nan ya makanta hankulan marasa ba da gaskiya, yadda har ba za su iya ganin hasken bishara ta ɗaukakar Kiristi ba, wanda yake kamannin Allah. (aiōn g165)
The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers so they cannot see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God. (aiōn g165)
5 Gama ba wa’azin kanmu muke yi ba, sai dai na Yesu Kiristi, a kan shi ne Ubangiji, mu kuma bayinku saboda Yesu.
For we do not proclaim ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, and ourselves as your servants for Jesus’ sake.
6 Domin shi Allah wanda ya ce, “Bari haske yă haskaka daga duhu,” ya sa haskensa ya haskaka a cikin zukatanmu, don yă ba mu hasken sanin ɗaukakar Allah a fuskar Kiristi.
For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” made His light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
7 Amma muna da wannan dukiya a cikin tulunan yumɓu, don a nuna wannan mafificin ikon nan daga Allah ne, ba daga gare mu ba.
Now we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this surpassingly great power is from God and not from us.
8 A matse muke a kowane gefe, sai dai ba a gurgunta mu ba. An rikitar da mu, amma ba mu fid da zuciya ba.
We are hard pressed on all sides, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair;
9 An tsananta mana, amma ba a yashe mu ba, an fyaɗe mu da ƙasa, amma ba a hallaka mu ba.
persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed.
10 Kullum muna ɗauke da mutuwar Yesu a jikinmu, domin ran Yesu yă bayyana a jikinmu.
We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body.
11 Muddin muna a raye, kullum zaman mutuwa muke yi saboda Yesu, don a bayyana ran Yesu ta wurin jikin nan namu mai mutuwa.
For we who are alive are always consigned to death for Jesus’ sake, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our mortal body.
12 Ta haka, mutuwa tana aiki a cikinmu, ku kuwa rai a cikinku.
So then, death is at work in us, but life is at work in you.
13 A rubuce yake cewa, “Na gaskata; saboda haka na yi magana.” Da wannan ruhun bangaskiya ne mu ma muka gaskata, saboda haka muke magana.
And in keeping with what is written: “I believed, therefore I have spoken,” we who have the same spirit of faith also believe and therefore speak,
14 Domin mun san cewa shi da ya tā da Ubangiji Yesu daga matattu, zai tashe mu mu ma tare da Kiristi, yă kuma miƙa mu a gabansa tare da ku.
knowing that the One who raised the Lord Jesus will also raise us with Jesus and present us with you in His presence.
15 Duk wannan fa don amfaninku ne, domin alherin nan da yake bazuwa zuwa ga mutane masu yawa, yă zama dalilin godiya mai yawa ga ɗaukakar Allah.
All this is for your benefit, so that the grace that is extending to more and more people may overflow in thanksgiving, to the glory of God.
16 Saboda haka, ba mu fid da zuciya ba. Ko da yake a waje, jikinmu mai mutuwa yana lalacewa, amma can ciki, ana sabunta mu kowace rana.
Therefore we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, yet our inner self is being renewed day by day.
17 Don wannan’yar wahalar tamu mai saurin wucewa, ita take tanadar mana madawwamiyar ɗaukaka mai yawa, fiye da kwatanci. (aiōnios g166)
For our light and momentary affliction is producing for us an eternal weight of glory that is far beyond comparison. (aiōnios g166)
18 Domin ba abubuwan da ido yake gani ne muke dubawa ba, sai dai marasa ganuwa. Gama abubuwan da ake gani masu saurin wucewa ne, marasa ganuwa kuwa, madawwama ne. (aiōnios g166)
So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal. (aiōnios g166)
