2 Korintiyawa 8
1 To,’yan’uwa, muna so ku san abin da alherin Allah ya ba wa ikkilisiyoyin Makidoniya.
And now we give you news, brothers, about the grace of God which has been given to the churches of Macedonia;
2 Gama sun sha wuya sosai saboda tsananin wahalar da suka shiga, har yawan farin cikinsu ya kai su ga yin alheri ta bayarwa ga waɗansu, ko da yake suna cikin tsananin talauci.
How while they were undergoing every sort of trouble, and were in the greatest need, they took all the greater joy in being able to give freely to the needs of others.
3 Gama ina shaida cewa sun bayar daidai gwargwadon iyawarsu, har ma fiye da ƙarfinsu. Su kansu,
For I give them witness, that as they were able, and even more than they were able, they gave from the impulse of their hearts,
4 sun roƙe mu sosai don su sami damar yin bayarwa a wannan hidima ga tsarkaka.
Seriously requesting us that they might have a part in this grace of being servants to the needs of the saints:
5 Ba su yi yadda muka za tă ba, sai ma suka fara ba da kansu ga Ubangiji, sa’an nan sai suka ba da kansu gare mu bisa ga nufin Allah.
And going even farther than our hope, they first gave themselves to the Lord and to us after the purpose of God.
6 Ganin haka sai muka roƙi Titus, da yake shi ne ya riga ya tsiro da wannan aikin alheri a cikinku, sai yă ƙarasa shi.
So that we made a request to Titus that, as he had made a start before, so he might make this grace complete in you.
7 To, da yake kun fiffita a kowane abu cikin bangaskiya, cikin magana, cikin sani, cikin dukan ƙwazo, da kuma cikin ƙaunarku dominmu, sai ku fiffita a wannan aikin alheri ma.
And that as you are full of every good thing, of faith, of the word, of knowledge, of a ready mind, and of love to us, so you may be full of this grace in the same way.
8 Ba umarni nake ba ku ba, sai dai ina so in gwada gaskiyar ƙaunarku ne, ta wurin kwatanta ta da aniyar waɗansu.
I am not giving you an order, but using the ready mind of others as a test of the quality of your love.
9 Gama kun san alherin Ubangijinmu Yesu Kiristi cewa ko da yake shi mawadaci ne, duk da haka, ya zama matalauci saboda ku, domin ta wurin talaucinsa, ku zama mawadata.
For you see the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, how though he had wealth, he became poor on your account, so that through his need you might have wealth.
10 Ga shawarata a kan abin da ya fi muku kyau a wannan al’amari. Bara ku kuka fara bayarwa, kuka kuma zama na farko wajen niyyar yin haka.
And in this I give my opinion: for it is to your profit, who were the first to make a start a year before, not only to do this, but to make clear that your minds were more than ready to do it.
11 Yanzu sai ku ƙarasa aikin da irin niyyar da kuka fara, ku yi haka gwargwadon ƙarfinku.
Then make the doing of it complete; so that as you had a ready mind, you may give effect to it as you are able.
12 Gama in da niyyar bayarwa, za a karɓi bayarwa bisa ga abin da mutum yake da shi, ba bisa ga abin da ba shi da shi ba.
For if there is a ready mind, a man will have God's approval in the measure of what he has, and not of what he has not.
13 Ba nufi nake yi a sawwaƙe wa waɗansu, ku kuwa a jibga muku nauyin ba. Amma ya yi kyau dai
And I am not saying this so that others may get off free, while the weight comes on you:
14 a raba daidai wa daida, sai ku taimake su a yanzu da yalwarku saboda rashinsu. Wata rana su ma su taimake ku da yalwarsu saboda rashinku, don a daidaita al’amari,
But so that things may be equal; that from those things of which you have more than enough at the present time their need may be helped, and that if you are in any need they may be a help to you in the same way, making things equal.
15 kamar yadda yake a rubuce cewa, “Wanda ya tara da yawa, bai tara fiye da bukatarsa ba, wanda kuma ya tara kaɗan, bai kāsa masa ba.”
As it says in the Writings, He who had taken up much had nothing over and he who had little had enough.
16 Ina gode wa Allah, wanda ya sa a zuciyar Titus, irin kula da nake da shi dominku.
But praise be to God, who puts the same care for you into the heart of Titus.
17 Ba kawai ya yarda yă je wurinku kamar yadda muka roƙe shi yă yi ba, amma ya so yă zo kamar yadda ya riga ya yi niyya.
For while he gladly gave ear to our request, he was interested enough to go to you from the impulse of his heart.
18 Ga shi mun aiko ɗan’uwanmu nan tare da shi, wanda ikkilisiyoyi duka suna yabo saboda hidimarsa ga bishara.
And with him we have sent a brother whose praise in the good news has gone through all the churches;
19 Ba kuwa haka kaɗai ba, har ma ikkilisiyoyi sun zaɓe shi yă riƙa tafiya tare da mu kan wannan aikin alheri da muke yi saboda ɗaukakar Ubangiji, da kuma nuna kyakkyawar niyyarmu.
And not only so, but he was marked out by the churches to go with us in the grace of this giving which we have undertaken to the glory of the Lord and to make clear that our mind was ready:
20 Muna gudu kada wani yă zarge mu, a kan yadda muke gudanar da wannan kyautar da aka bayar hannu sake.
And so that no man might be able to say anything against us in the business of this giving which has been put into our hands:
21 Gama muna iya ƙoƙari mu yi abin da yake daidai, ba a gaban Ubangiji kaɗai ba, amma a gaban mutane ma.
For the business has been so ordered by us as to have the approval, not only of the Lord, but of men.
22 Ban da wannan kuma, mun aiko da ɗan’uwanmu tare da su, wanda ya sha tabbatar mana da ƙwazonsa ta hanyoyi iri-iri, musamman yanzu, domin ya amince da ku da gaske.
And we have sent with them our brother, whose ready spirit has been made clear to us at times and in ways without number, but it is now all the more so because of the certain faith which he has in you.
23 Game da Titus kuma, shi abokin tarayyata ne, da kuma abokin aikina a cikinku; game da’yan’uwanmu kuwa, su wakilai ne na ikkilisiyoyi, kuma su masu ɗaukaka Kiristi ne.
If any question comes up about Titus, he is my brother-worker, working with me for you; or about the others, they are the representatives of the churches to the glory of Christ.
24 Saboda haka, ku nuna wa waɗannan mutane shaidar ƙaunarku, da kuma dalilin taƙamarmu da ku, domin ikkilisiyoyi su gani.
Make clear then to them, as representatives of the churches, the quality of your love, and that the things which we have said about you are true.
