< 2 Korintiyawa 5 >
1 Yanzu mun san cewa in an hallaka tentin duniyan nan da muke ciki, muna da wani gini daga Allah, madawwamin gida a sama, wanda ba da hannuwan mutum ne suka gina shi ba. (aiōnios )
For we know that if the earthy house of this our tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, a house not made with hands, everlasting, in the heavens. (aiōnios )
2 Kafin nan muna nishi, da marmari a yi mana sutura da gidanmu na sama,
For, indeed, in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be invested with our heavenly mansion.
3 don sa’ad da aka yi mana sutura, ba za a same mu tsirara ba.
And surely, being thus invested, we shall not be found naked.
4 Sa’ad da muke zaune a cikin jikin nan na duniya, nishi muke domin matsuwar da muke sha, ba domin muna so mu rabu da jikinmu na wannan duniya ba ne, sai dai don so muke yi a suturta mu da na Sama, domin mai rai ya shafe mai mutuwa.
For, indeed, we that are in this tabernacle do groan, being burdened: not that we desire to be divested, but invested: that mortality may be swallowed up by life.
5 Allah ne ya yi mu domin wannan, ya kuma ba mu Ruhu a matsayin abin ajiya, yana kuma tabbatar da abin da zai zo nan gaba.
Now he who has wrought us up to this very desire, is God, who has also given us the earnest of the Spirit.
6 Saboda haka, kullum muna da tabbaci mun kuma san cewa, muddin muna a duniya cikin jikin nan, ana raba mu da Ubangiji.
We are, therefore, always courageous; knowing that while at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord:
7 Rayuwa bangaskiya muke, ba ta ganin ido ba.
(for we walk by faith, not by sight.)
8 Ina cewa muna da tabbaci, za mu fi so mu rabu da jikin nan, mu kuma kasance a sama tare da Ubangiji.
We are courageous, indeed, and desirous rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.
9 Saboda haka, niyyarmu ita ce, mu gamshe shi, ko muna a duniya cikin jikin nan, ko ba mu nan.
Therefore, also, we strive earnestly, whether at home, or from home, to be acceptable to him.
10 Gama dole dukanmu mu bayyana a gaban kujerar shari’ar Kiristi, domin kowannenmu yă karɓi ladan aikin da ya yi a wannan jiki, ko mai kyau ne ko marar kyau.
For we must all appear before the tribunal of Christ, that every one may receive the things done in the body, according to what has been done, whether good or evil.
11 To, da yake mun san ko mene tsoron Ubangiji yake, muna ƙoƙari mu rinjaye mutane. Yadda muke kuwa, yana sane a sarari ga Allah, ina kuma fata yana nan a sarari a lamirinku.
Knowing, therefore, the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; and are made manifest to God: and, I trust, are made manifest also to your consciences.
12 Ba ƙoƙari muke mu yabe kanmu a gare ku ba ne, sai dai muna ba ku damar yin taƙama da mu ne, don ku sami amsar da za ku ba wa waɗanda suke taƙama da abin da ake gani ne, a maimakon abin da yake cikin zuciya.
However, we do not again commend ourselves to you, but only give you occasion of boasting concerning us, that you may have an answer to them who boast in appearance, not in heart.
13 In hankalinmu a taɓe yake, ai, saboda Allah ne, in kuwa cikin hankalinmu muke, ai, saboda ku ne.
For, whether we be beside ourselves, it is for God; or whether we be sober, it is for you.
14 Ƙaunar Kiristi a gare mu, ita take mallakarmu, saboda haka mun tabbata, da yake wani ya mutu saboda dukan mutane, ashe kuwa, mutuwarsu ce dukansu.
For the love of Christ constrains us, having judged thus-- that if one has died, certainly all have died;
15 Ya kuwa mutu ne saboda dukan mutane, domin kada waɗanda suke rayuwa kada su yi zaman ganin dama a nan gaba, sai dai su yi zaman wannan da ya mutu saboda su, aka kuma tashe shi saboda su.
and that he has died for all, that they who live should no longer live to themselves, but to him who has died and rose again for them.
16 Saboda haka, daga yanzu zuwa nan gaba, ba mu ƙara ɗaukan wani mutum bisa ga ganin duniya ba. Ko da yake a dā, mun ɗauki Kiristi haka, amma yanzu mun daina yin haka.
So that we, from this time forth, respect no man on account of the flesh: and even if we have esteemed Christ on account of the flesh, yet now we esteem him no more on that account.
17 Saboda haka, duk wanda yake cikin Kiristi, sabuwar halitta ce, tsohon al’amari ya shuɗe, sabon ya zo!
For, if any one be in Christ, he is a new creature; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new!
18 Duk wannan kuwa daga Allah ne, wanda ya sulhunta mu da kansa ta wurin Kiristi, ya kuma ba mu hidimar sulhu,
And all these things of God, who has reconciled us to himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us to the ministry of the reconciliation--
19 wato, Allah ya sulhunta duniya zuwa kansa ta wurin Kiristi, ba ya lissafta zunuban mutane a kansu. Ya kuma danƙa mana saƙon sulhu.
namely, that God was, by Christ, reconciling the world to himself, not counting to them their trespasses, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation.
20 Saboda haka, mu jakadu ne na Kiristi, sai ka ce Allah kansa yake magana ta wurinmu. Muna roƙonku a madadin Kiristi. Ku sulhuntu da Allah.
We, therefore, execute the office of ambassadors for Christ, as of God beseeching you by us; we pray you, in behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God.
21 Shi da bai san zunubi ba, Allah ya mai da shi kamar hadayar zunubi saboda mu, domin mu sami adalcin Allah ta wurinsa.
For he has made him, who knew no sin, a sin-offering for us; that we might become the justified of God, by him.
