Ayyukan Manzanni 7
1 Sai babban firist ya tambaye shi ya ce, “Waɗannan zargen gaskiya ne?”
Then said the high priest, Are these things so?
2 Game da wannan ya amsa ya ce, “’Yan’uwa da ubanni, ku saurare ni! Allah mai ɗaukaka ya bayyana ga kakanmu Ibrahim yayinda yake a ƙasar Mesofotamiya tukuna, kafin ya yi zama a Haran.
And he said, "Brethren and fathers, hearken, ---The God of glory appeared to our father Abraham, when he was in Mesopotamia, before he dwelt in Charran,
3 Allah ya ce, ‘Ka bar ƙasarka da kuma mutanenka, ka tafi ƙasar da zan nuna maka.’
and said to him, Depart from thy native country and from thy kindred, and come into the country which I shall shew thee.
4 “Saboda haka ya bar ƙasar Kaldiyawa ya kuma yi zama a Haran. Bayan mutuwar mahaifinsa, Allah ya aika da shi wannan ƙasar da yanzu kuke zama.
Then he came out of the land of the Chaldeans, and dwelt in Charran: and from thence, after his father died, He removed him into this land in which ye now dwell:
5 Bai ba shi gādo a nan ba, ko taki ɗaya na ƙasa. Amma Allah ya yi masa alkawari cewa shi da zuriyarsa masu zuwa bayansa za su mallaki ƙasar, ko da yake a lokacin Ibrahim ba shi da yaro.
though He gave him no inheritance in it, no not the breadth of a foot; but He promised to give it to him for a possession, even to his seed after him; though he had then no child."
6 Allah ya yi magana da shi ta haka, ‘Shekara ɗari huɗu, zuriyarka za tă yi baƙunci a wata ƙasar da ba tasu ba, za su yi bauta su kuma sha wulaƙanci.
And God spake thus unto him, "that his seed should sojourn in a strange country, and they shall in slave and abuse them four hundred years:"
7 Amma zan hore ƙasar da suka bauta wa.’ Allah ya ce, ‘Kuma daga baya za su fita daga wannan ƙasa su kuma yi mini sujada a wannan wuri.’
and God said, "I will judge the nation, to which they shall be in slavery; and afterwards they shall come out, and shall worship me in this place."
8 Sa’an nan ya yi wa Ibrahim alkawari game da kaciya. Ibrahim kuwa ya zama mahaifin Ishaku ya kuma yi masa kaciya kwana takwas bayan haihuwarsa. Daga baya Ishaku ya zama mahaifin Yaƙub, Yaƙub kuma ya zama mahaifin kakanninmu sha biyun nan.
And He gave him the covenant of circumcision: and he begat Isaac, and circumcised him on the eighth day; and Isaac Jacob, and Jacob the twelve patriarchs.
9 “Domin kakanninmu sun ji kishin Yusuf, sai suka sayar da shi bawa zuwa Masar. Amma Allah ya kasance tare da shi
And the patriarchs, envying him, sold Joseph into Egypt: but God was with him,
10 ya kuma cece shi daga dukan wahalolinsa. Ya ba wa Yusuf hikima ya kuma sa ya sami farin jini a wurin Fir’auna, sarkin Masar; saboda haka ya mai da shi mai mulki a kan Masar da kuma dukan fadarsa.
and delivered him out of all his afflictions, and gave him favor and wisdom in the sight of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he appointed him governor over Egypt, and over all his houshold.
11 “Sai yunwa ta auko wa dukan Masar da Kan’ana, ta kawo wahala mai tsanani, kakanninmu ba su iya samun abinci ba.
And there came a famine over all the land of Egypt and Canaan, and great affliction; and our fathers could not find sustenance.
12 Sa’ad da Yaƙub ya ji cewa akwai hatsi a Masar, sai ya aiki kakanninmu ziyararsu ta farko.
But Jacob hearing that there was corn in Egypt, sent out our fathers first:
13 A ziyararsu ta biyu, Yusuf ya faɗa wa’yan’uwansa wane ne shi, Fir’auna kuwa ya sami sani game da iyalin Yusuf.
and at the second time Joseph was made known to his brethren; and Joseph's kindred was made known to Pharaoh.
14 Bayan wannan, Yusuf ya aika a zo da mahaifinsa Yaƙub da dukan iyalinsa, gaba ɗaya dai mutum saba’in da biyar ne.
Then Joseph sent for his father Jacob, and all his kindred, even seventy-five souls.
15 Sai Yaƙub ya gangara zuwa Masar, inda shi da kuma kakanninmu suka mutu.
So Jacob went down into Egypt, and died there, he and our fathers:
16 Aka dawo da gawawwakinsu Shekem aka binne su a kabarin da Ibrahim ya saya daga wurin’ya’yan Hamor da waɗansu kuɗi a Shekem.
and were carried to Sychem, and laid in the sepulchre which he had bought for a sum of money of the sons of Emmor the father of Sychem.
17 “Da lokaci ya yi kusa da Allah zai cika alkawarin da ya yi wa Ibrahim, sai yawan mutanenmu da suke a Masar ya ƙaru ƙwarai.
But as the time of the promise drew near, which God had sworn to Abraham, the people increased and multiplied in Egypt.
18 Sa’an nan wani sarki, wanda bai san kome game da Yusuf ba, ya zama mai mulkin Masar.
Till another king arose, who knew not Joseph. This king formed crafty schemes against our nation,
19 Ya kuwa wulaƙanta mutanenmu sosai, ya kuma gwada wa kakanni-kakanninmu azaba ta wurin tilasta su su zubar da sababbin jariransu, don su mutu.
and oppressed our fathers, causing their children to be exposed, that their race might be extinguished.
20 “A lokacin nan aka haifi Musa, shi kuwa ba kamar sauran jarirai ba ne. Wata uku aka yi renonsa a gidan mahaifinsa.
In which time Moses was born, who was exceeding beautiful, and he was nourished up in his father's house three months: and when he was exposed,
21 Sa’ad da aka ajiye shi a waje, diyar Fir’auna ta ɗauke shi ta kuma rene shi kamar ɗanta.
Pharaoh's daughter took him up and nourished him for her own son.
22 Musa ya sami ilimi cikin dukan hikimar Masarawa ya kuma zama mai iko cikin magana da ayyuka.
And Moses was trained up in all the wisdom of the Egyptians: and he was mighty in words, and in deeds.
23 “Da Musa ya cika shekara arba’in da haihuwa, sai ya yanke shawara yă ziyarci’yan’uwansa Isra’ilawa.
And when he was full forty years old, it came into his heart to visit his brethren the children of Israel.
24 Ya ga ɗayansu yana shan wulaƙanci a hannun wani mutumin Masar, sai ya je ya kāre shi, ya rama masa ta wurin kashe mutumin Masar ɗin.
And seeing one of them injured he defended him, and smiting the Egyptian he avenged him that was wronged.
25 Musa ya yi tsammani mutanensa za su gane cewa, Allah yana amfani da shi don yă cece su, amma ba su gane ba.
Now he supposed that his brethren would have understood that God would give them deliverance by his hand: but they understood not.
26 Kashegari, Musa ya sadu da Isra’ilawa biyu suna faɗa. Ya yi ƙoƙari ya sasanta su, yana cewa, ‘Ku mutane, ku’yan’uwa ne, don me kuke so ku cutar da juna?’
And the next day he came to them, as they were two of them fighting, and would have persuaded them to agree, saying, Sirs, ye are brethren, why do ye injure one another?
27 “Amma mutumin da yake wulaƙanta ɗayan, ya tura Musa a gefe ya ce, ‘Wa ya mai da kai mai mulki, da alƙali a kanmu?
But he, that injured his neighbor, thrust him away, saying, Who made thee a ruler and a judge over us?
28 Kana so ka kashe ni kamar yadda ka kashe mutumin Masar nan na jiya?’
Wilt thou kill me, as thou killedst the Egyptian yesterday?
29 Sa’ad da Musa ya ji haka, sai ya gudu zuwa ƙasar Midiyan, inda ya yi baƙunci, ya kuma haifi’ya’ya biyu maza.
Upon this Moses fled, and became a sojourner in the land of Midian, where he begat two sons.
30 “Bayan shekaru arba’in suka wuce, sai mala’ika ya bayyana ga Musa cikin harshen wuta a ɗan itace a hamada kusa da Dutsen Sinai.
And when forty years were expired, there appeared to him in the wilderness of mount Sina, an angel of the Lord in a flame of fire in a bush.
31 Sa’ad da ya ga haka, ya yi mamakin abin da ya gani. Da ya yi kusa domin ya duba sosai, sai ya ji muryar Ubangiji ta ce,
Now Moses, when he saw it, was amazed at the sight; and as he came near to observe it, there was a voice of the Lord to him,
32 ‘Ni ne Allahn kakanninka, Allah na Ibrahim, Ishaku, da kuma Yaƙub.’ Sai Musa ya yi rawan jiki don tsoro, bai kuwa yi karambanin dubawa ba.
saying, "I am the God of thy fathers, the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob;" but Moses trembling durst not look on.
33 “Sa’an nan Ubangiji ya ce masa, ‘Ka cire takalmanka; wurin da kake tsayen nan mai tsarki ne.
And the Lord said to him, "Take off thy shoes from thy feet: for the place on which thou standest is holy ground.
34 Tabbatacce na ga wulaƙancin da ake yi wa mutanena a Masar. Na ji nishinsu na kuma sauka domin in’yantar da su. Yanzu ka zo, zan aike ka ka koma Masar.’
I have seen the oppression of my people that are in Egypt, and I have heard their groaning, and am come down to deliver them. Therefore come now, and I will send thee into Egypt."
35 “Wannan Musa ɗin da suka ƙi suna cewa, ‘Wa ya mai da kai mai mulki da kuma alƙali?’ Allah da kansa ya aike shi, ta wurin mala’ikan da ya bayyana a gare shi a ɗan itace, yă zama mai mulkinsu, da kuma mai cetonsu.
This Moses whom they refused, saying, Who made thee a ruler and a judge? did God send, by the hand of the angel that appeared to him in the bush, to be their ruler and deliverer.
36 Ya fitar da su daga Masar ya kuma yi ayyukan da abubuwan banmamaki a Masar, a Jan Teku, da kuma cikin hamada har shekara arba’in.
And he brought them out, performing wonders and signs in the land of Egypt, and in the red sea, and in the wilderness, forty years.
37 “Wannan Musa ne ya ce Isra’ilawa, ‘Allah zai aika muku wani annabi kamar ni daga cikin mutanenku.’
---This is that Moses who said unto the children of Israel, "A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you, of your brethren, like unto me; Him shall ye hear."
38 Ya kasance a cikin taron nan a hamada, tare da mala’ikan da ya yi magana da shi a Dutsen Sinai, da kuma tare da kakanninmu; ya kuma karɓi kalmomi masu rai don yă miƙa mana.
This is he who was in the assembly in the wilderness, with the angel that spake to him on mount Sinai, and with our fathers; and who received the oracles of life to give unto us.
39 “Amma kakanninmu suka ƙi yin masa biyayya. A maimakon haka, sai suka ƙi shi a cikin zuciyarsu kuwa suka koma Masar.
To whom our fathers would not be subject, but renounced him, and in their hearts turned back into Egypt,
40 Suka ce wa Haruna, ‘Ka yi mana allolin da za su yi mana jagora. Game da wannan Musa ɗin wanda ya fitar da mu daga Masar, ba mu san abin da ya faru da shi ba!’
saying to Aaron, Make us gods to go before us; for as to this Moses, who brought us out of the land of Egypt, we know not what is become of him. And they made a calf in those days,
41 A lokacin ne suka ƙera gunki mai siffar ɗan maraƙi. Suka kawo masa hadayu suka kuma yi bikin girmama abin da suka ƙera da hannuwansu.
and offered sacrifice to the idol, and rejoiced in the works of their own hands.
42 Sai Amma Allah ya juya musu baya ya kuma ba da su ga bautar abubuwan da suke a sararin sama. Wannan ya yi daidai da abin da yake a rubuce a cikin littafin annabawa cewa, “‘Kun kawo mini hadayu da sadakoki shekaru arba’in cikin, hamada, ya gidan Isra’ila?
Then God turned away, and gave them up to worship the host of heaven, as it is written in the book of the prophets, "O house of Israel, did ye offer to me your victims and sacrifices, for the space of forty years in the wilderness?
43 Kun ɗaukaka gidan tsafin Molek, da tauraron allahnku Refan, gumakan da kuka ƙera don ku yi musu sujada. Saboda haka zan aike ku zuwa bauta’ gaba da Babilon.
yea, ye took up the tabernacle of Moloch, and the star of your god Remphan, figures which ye made to worship them by: and I will carry you away beyond Babylon."
44 “Kakanni-kakanninmu suna da tabanakul na Shaida tare da su a hamada. An yi shi bisa ga yadda Allah ya umarci Musa, bisa ga zānen da ya gani.
The tabernacle of witness was among our fathers in the wilderness, as He, that spake unto Moses, ordered him to make it according to the model which he had seen in the mount:
45 Bayan sun gāji tabanakul nan, kakanninmu a ƙarƙashin jagorancin Yoshuwa suka kawo shi tare da su, lokacin da suka ƙwace ƙasar daga al’umman da Allah ya kora a idanunsu. Tabanakul ɗin ya kasance a ƙasar har zamanin Dawuda,
and which our fathers receiving, they with Joshua, brought into the territory of the nations, whom God drove out from before the face of our fathers, till the days of David, who found favor in the sight of God,
46 wanda ya sami tagomashi daga Allah, ya kuma nemi yă yi wa Allah na Yaƙub wurin zama.
and was desirous to provide an habitation for the God of Jacob.
47 Amma Solomon ne ya gina masa gida.
But Solomon built Him an house.
48 “Duk da haka, Mafi Ɗaukaka ba ya zama a gidajen da mutane suka gina. Kamar yadda annabi ya faɗi cewa,
Though the most High dwelleth not in temples made with hands, as the prophet saith,
49 “‘Sama ne kursiyina, duniya kuma wurin ajiye tafin ƙafata. Wane irin gida za ka gina mini? Ko kuwa ina wurin hutuna zai kasance? In ji Ubangiji.
"Heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool; what house will ye build for me, saith the Lord, or what is the place of my rest?
50 Ba hannuna ne ya yi dukan waɗannan abubuwa ba?’
hath not my hand made all these things?" ---
51 “Ku mutane masu taurinkai, da zukata da kuma kunnuwa marasa kaciya! Kuna kama da kakanninku. Kullum kuna tsayayya da Ruhu Mai Tsarki!
Ye stiff-necked, and uncircumcised in heart and ears, ye do always resist the holy Spirit: as your fathers did, so do ye.
52 An yi wani annabin da kakanninku ba su tsananta wa ba? Sun ma kashe waɗanda suka yi maganar zuwan Mai Adalcin nan. Yanzu kuwa kun bashe shi kuka kuma kashe shi
Which of the prophets did not your fathers persecute? and slew those who prophesied concerning the coming of that righteous One, of whom ye have been now the betrayers and murderers;
53 ku da kuka karɓi dokar da aka sa a aiki ta wurin mala’iku amma ba ku yi biyayya da ita ba.”
who received the law by the ministration of angels, and yet have not kept it.
54 Da membobin Sanhedrin suka ji haka, sai suka yi fushi suka ciji haƙoransu.
And when they heard these things, they were cut to the heart and gnashed their teeth at him.
55 Amma Istifanus, cike da Ruhu Mai Tsarki, ya dubi sama ya kuma ga ɗaukakar Allah, da Yesu kuma tsaye a hannun dama na Allah.
But he being full of the holy Spirit looked up stedfastly into heaven, and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God:
56 Ya ce, “Ga shi, na ga sama a buɗe da kuma Ɗan Mutum tsaye a hannun dama na Allah.”
and he said, Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man standing at the right hand of God.
57 Da jin haka sai suka tattoshe kunnuwansu, suka kuma yi ihu da ƙarfi sosai, suka aukar masa gaba ɗaya.
Then they cried out with a loud voice, and stopped their ears, and ran upon him with one accord,
58 Suka ja shi zuwa bayan birnin suka kuma yi ta jifansa da duwatsu. Ana cikin haka, shaidun suka ajiye tufafinsu a wurin wani saurayi mai suna Shawulu.
and cast him out of the city and stoned him: and the witnesses laid down their clothes at the feet of a young man, whose name was Saul.
59 Yayinda suke cikin jifansa, sai Istifanus ya yi addu’a ya ce, “Ubangiji Yesu, ka karɓi ruhuna.”
And they stoned Stephen calling upon God, and saying, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.
60 Sa’an nan ya durƙusa ya ɗaga murya ya ce, “Ubangiji, kada ka riƙe wannan zunubi a kansu.” Da ya faɗi haka, sai ya yi barci.
And bending his knees, he cried with a loud voice, Lord, lay not this sin to their charge. And when he had said this he fell asleep.
