Ayyukan Manzanni 24
1 Bayan kwana biyar sai Ananiyas babban firist ya tafi Kaisariya tare da waɗansu daga cikin dattawa da kuma wani lauya mai suna Tertullus, suka kawo ƙararsu game da Bulus a gaban gwamna.
After five days, the high priest, Ananias, came down with certain elders and an orator, one Tertullus. They informed the governor against Paul.
2 Sa’ad da aka shigo da Bulus, sai Tertullus ya shiga kai ƙararsa a gaban Felis yana cewa, “Mun daɗe muna zaman lafiya a ƙarƙashinka, hangen nesanka kuma ya kawo gyare-gyare a wannan ƙasa.
When he was called, Tertullus began to accuse him, saying, "Seeing that by you we enjoy much peace, and that by your foresight reforms are coming to this nation,
3 Ko’ina da kuma a kowace hanya, ya mafifici Felis, mun amince da wannan da godiya marar iyaka.
we accept it in all ways and in all places, most excellent Felix, with all thankfulness.
4 Amma don kada in ƙara gajiyar da kai, ina roƙonka ka yi haƙuri ka saurari ɗan taƙaitaccen jawabinmu.
But, that I do not delay you, I entreat you to bear with us and hear a few words.
5 “Mun tarar da wannan mutum fitinanne ne, yana tā-da-na-zaune-tsaye a tsakanin Yahudawa ko’ina a duniya. Shi shugaban ɗarikar Nazarawa
For we have found this man to be a plague, an instigator of insurrections among all the Jews throughout the world, and a ringleader of the sect of the Nazarenes.
6 har ma ya yi ƙoƙari ya ƙazantar da haikali; shi ya sa muka kama shi.
He even tried to profane the temple, and we arrested him. And we would have judged him according to our law,
but the chief captain Lysias came, and with great violence took him away out of our hands,
8 Ta wurin bincika shi da kanka za ka gane gaskiyar game da dukan waɗannan zargin da muke kawo a kansa.”
commanding his accusers to come to you. By examining him yourself you may ascertain all these things of which we accuse him."
9 Yahudawa ma suka goyi bayan zargin, suna tabbatar cewa waɗannan abubuwa haka suke.
The Jews also joined in the attack, affirming that these things were so.
10 Da gwamna ya yi masa alama yă yi magana, sai Bulus ya amsa ya ce, “Na san cewa ka yi shekaru da yawa kana mulki a wannan ƙasa; saboda haka ina farin ciki in kāre kaina.
When the governor had beckoned to him to speak, Paul answered, "Because I know that you have been a judge of this nation for many years, I cheerfully make my defense,
11 Da sauƙi za ka iya tabbatar cewa, bai fi kwana goma sha biyu da suka wuce ne na tafi Urushalima, domin yin sujada ba.
seeing that you can recognize that it is not more than twelve days since I went up to worship at Jerusalem.
12 Masu zargina ba su same ni ina gardama da kowa a haikali, ko kuma ina tā da hankalin jama’a a majami’u ko kuwa wani wuri dabam a cikin birni ba.
In the temple they did not find me disputing with anyone or stirring up a crowd, either in the synagogues, or in the city.
13 Ba kuwa za su iya tabbatar maka ƙarar da suke yi yanzu a kaina ba.
Nor can they prove to you the things of which they now accuse me.
14 Amma na yarda cewa ina bauta wa Allah na kakanninmu a matsayin mai bin Hanyar da suke kira ɗarika. Na gaskata dukan abin da ya amince da Doka da yake kuma a rubuce cikin Annabawa,
But this I confess to you, that after the Way, which they call a sect, so I serve the God of our fathers, believing all things which are according to the Law, and which are written in the Prophets;
15 ina kuma da irin bege ɗaya ga Allah yadda mutanen nan suke da shi, cewa akwai tashin matattu masu adalci da masu mugunta duka.
having hope toward God, which these also themselves look for, that there will be a resurrection, both of the just and unjust.
16 Saboda haka, ina ƙoƙari kullum in kasance da lamiri mai tsabta a gaban Allah da mutane.
This being so, I also do my best to always have a clear conscience toward God and people.
17 “Bayan’yan shekaru da dama da ba na nan, sai na dawo Urushalima don in kawo wa mutanena kyautai saboda matalauta in kuma yi sadaka.
Now after some years, I came to bring gifts for the needy to my nation, and offerings;
18 Ni tsarkake ne sa’ad da suka same ni cikin filin haikalin ina yin haka. Babu taro tare da ni, ba kuwa ina tā da hankali ba.
amid which certain Jews from Asia found me purified in the temple, not with a mob, nor with turmoil.
19 Amma akwai waɗansu Yahudawa daga lardin Asiya, waɗanda ya kamata suna a nan a gabanka su kawo ƙara in suna da wani a kaina.
They ought to have been here before you, and to make accusation, if they had anything against me.
20 Ko kuwa waɗannan da suke a nan su faɗi laifin da suka same ni da shi sa’ad da na tsaya a gaban Majalisa,
Or else let these men themselves say what injustice they found in me when I stood before the council,
21 sai ko wannan abu ɗaya kaɗai da na ɗaga murya na faɗi yayinda nake tsaye a gabansu cewa, ‘A game da tashin matattu ake mini shari’a a gabanku yau.’”
unless it is for this one thing that I shouted out standing among them, 'Concerning the resurrection of the dead I am being judged before you today.'"
22 Sai Felis, wanda yake da cikakken sani game da Hanyar, ya ɗaga sauraron ƙarar. Ya ce, “In Lisiyas shugaban ƙungiyar soja ya iso, zan yanke muku shari’a.”
But Felix, having more exact knowledge concerning the Way, deferred them, saying, "When Lysias, the commanding officer, comes down, I will decide your case."
23 Ya yi wa jarumin umarni yă tsare Bulus amma yă ba shi’yanci yă kuma bar abokansa su lura da bukatunsa.
He ordered the centurion that he should be kept in custody, and should have some privileges, and not to forbid any of his friends to serve him or to visit him.
24 Bayan’yan kwanaki da dama sai Felis ya zo da matarsa Durusilla, mutuniyar Yahuda. Sai ya aika a zo da Bulus ya kuma saurare shi da yake magana game da bangaskiya cikin Kiristi Yesu.
But after some days, Felix came with Drusilla, his wife, who was Jewish, and sent for Paul, and heard him concerning the faith in Messiah Jesus.
25 Da Bulus ya ci gaba jawabi a kan adalci, kamunkai da kuma hukunci mai zuwa, sai Felis ya tsorata ya ce, “Yanzu kam, ya isa haka! Kana iya tafi. In na sami zarafi, zan kira ka.”
As he reasoned about righteousness, self-control, and the judgment to come, Felix was terrified, and answered, "Go your way for this time, and when it is convenient for me, I will summon you."
26 A wani fanni yana sa rai cewa Bulus zai ba shi toshiyar baki, saboda haka ya yi ta aika a kira masa Bulus yă yi magana da shi.
Meanwhile, he also hoped that money would be given to him by Paul. Therefore also he sent for him more often, and talked with him.
27 Da shekaru biyu suka wuce, sai Forsiyus Festus, ya gāji Felis, amma domin Felis ya so yă biya wa Yahudawa bukata, sai ya bar Bulus a kurkuku.
But when two years were fulfilled, Felix was succeeded by Porcius Festus, and desiring to gain favor with the Jews, Felix left Paul in bonds.
