Ayyukan Manzanni 9
1 Ana cikin haka, Shawulu ya ɗage yana barazana yin kisa da tsananta wa almajiran Ubangiji. Sai ya je wurin babban firist
Meanwhile Saul, still breathing out threats of murder against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest
2 ya roƙe shi ya ba shi wasiƙu zuwa majami’un Damaskus, don in ya sami wani a wurin wanda yake bin wannan Hanya, ko maza ko mata, yă kama su a matsayin’yan kurkuku yă kai Urushalima.
and begged of him letters addressed to the synagogues in Damascus, so that if he found any that were of the Way, either men or women, he could bind them and bring them to Jerusalem.
3 Da ya yi kusa da Damaskus a kan hanyarsa, ba zato ba tsammani sai wani haske daga sama ya haskaka kewaye da shi.
And as he journeyed, when he was approaching Damascus, suddenly a light from heaven flashed round him.
4 Sai ya fāɗi a ƙasa ya kuma ji wata murya ta ce masa, “Shawulu, Shawulu, don me kake tsananta mini?”
He fell to the ground, and heard a voice which said to him, "Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me?"
5 Shawulu ya yi tambaya ya ce, “Wane ne kai, ya Ubangiji?” Ya amsa ya ce, “Ni ne Yesu wanda kake tsananta wa.
And he said, "Who are you Lord?"
6 Yanzu ka tashi ka shiga cikin birnin, za a kuma gaya maka abin da dole za ka yi.”
"I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting," he said. "Stand up and go into the city, and there you shall be told what you must do."
7 Mutanen da suke tafiya tare da Shawulu suka rasa bakin magana; sun ji muryar amma ba su ga kowa ba.
Meanwhile the men who were his fellow travelers stood speechless, hearing indeed the voice, but beholding no one.
8 Shawulu ya tashi daga ƙasa, amma sa’ad da ya buɗe idanunsa bai iya ganin wani abu ba. Saboda haka aka kama hannunsa aka yi masa jagora zuwa cikin Damaskus.
And Saul got up from the ground, but although his eyes were open, he continued to perceive nothing; so they took him by the hand and led him into Damascus.
9 Kwana uku yana a makance, bai ci ba bai kuma sha kome ba.
And he remained there three days, seeing nothing, and without eating or drinking.
10 A Damaskus kuwa akwai wani almajiri mai suna Ananiyas. Ubangiji ya kira shi a cikin wahayi ya ce, “Ananiyas!” Ananiyas ya amsa, “Ga ni, ya Ubangiji.”
Now there was in Damascus a disciple named Ananias, and the Lord spoke to him in a vision, saying, "Ananias!" And he answered, "Lo, I am here, Lord."
11 Ubangiji ya ce masa, “Je gidan Yahuda da yake a Miƙaƙƙen Titi ka yi tambaya ko akwai wani mutum daga Tarshish mai suna Shawulu, gama ga shi yana addu’a.
And the Lord said to him. "Arise, go into the street named ‘Straight,’ and make inquiries in the house of Judas for a man of Tarsus, one Saul.
12 Cikin wahayi ya ga wani mutum mai suna Ananiyas ya zo ya sa hannuwansa a kansa don yă sāke samun ganin gari.”
He is now praying, and has seen a man named Ananias enter and lay his hands on him to restore his sight."
13 Ananiyas ya amsa ya ce, “Ubangiji, na ji labarin mutumin nan sosai da kuma duk lahanin da ya yi wa tsarkakanka a Urushalima.
"But, Lord," said Ananias, "I have heard from many about that man, and how much evil he did to the saints at Jerusalem!
14 Ga shi kuma ya zo nan da izinin manyan firistoci, don yă kama duk wanda yake kiran bisa sunanka.”
"In this city, too, he has authority from the chief priests to arrest all those who call upon thy name."
15 Amma Ubangiji ya ce wa Ananiyas, “Je ka! Wannan mutum zaɓaɓɓen kayan aikina ne don yă kai sunana a gaban Al’ummai da sarakunansu da kuma a gaban mutanen Isra’ila.
"Go," answered the Lord, "this man is chosen instrument of mine to bear my name before the nations and their kings, and before the Children of Israel also;
16 Zan nuna masa wahalar da dole zai sha saboda sunana.”
"for I am going to show him all he has to suffer for the sake of my name."
17 Sa’an nan Ananiyas ya tafi gidan ya kuma shiga ciki. Da ya sa hannuwansa a kan Shawulu, sai ya ce, “Ɗan’uwana Shawulu, Ubangiji, Yesu, wanda ya bayyana gare ka a kan hanya yayinda kake zuwa nan, ya aiko ni domin ka sāke gani a kuma cika ka da Ruhu Mai Tsarki.”
And so Ananias went and entered into the house, and laying his hands on him, said, "Brother Saul, the Lord, even Jesus, who appeared to you on your journey, has sent me that you may receive your sight, and be filled with the Holy Spirit."
18 Nan da nan, sai wani abu kamar ɓawo ya fāɗo daga idanun Shawulu, ya kuma sāke iya ganin gari. Sai ya tashi aka kuma yi masa baftisma,
Instantly something like scales fell from his eyes, and he received his sight. He arose and was baptized.
19 bayan ya ci abinci, sai sāke samun ƙarfi. Shawulu ya yi kwanaki masu yawa tare da almajiran da suke a Damaskus.
Afterward he took food and was strengthened. And he remained for some time with the disciples at Damascus.
20 Nan take ya fara wa’azi cikin majami’u cewa Yesu Ɗan Allah ne.
And he began at once to proclaim in the synagogues Jesus as the Son of God.
21 Dukan waɗanda suka ji shi suka yi mamaki suka ce, “Ba shi ne mutumin da ya tā-da-na-zaune-tsaye a kan masu kira bisa ga wannan sunan a Urushalima ba? Ba ya zo nan ne don yă kai su a matsayin’yan kurkuku ga manyan firistoci ba?”
His hearers were all astonished, and began to say. "Is not this the very man who in Jerusalem made havoc of those who called upon the Name? Did he not come hither for the express purpose of carrying them all in chains to the high priests?"
22 Duk da haka Shawulu ya yi ta ƙara ƙarfi, ya kuma rikitar da Yahudawan da suke zaune a Damaskus, ta wurin tabbatar musu cewa, Yesu shi ne Kiristi.
But Saul gained more and more influence, and kept putting the Jews who lived in Damascus to confusion by his proof that Jesus was the Christ.
23 Bayan kwanaki masu yawa, sai Yahudawa suka haɗa baki su kashe shi,
And when many days were fulfilled the Jews made a plot to kill Saul;
24 amma Shawulu ya sami labarin shirinsu. Dare da rana suka yi fakonsa a ƙofofin birnin don su kashe shi.
but information of their plot was given Saul, and although they kept watch day and night on the gates, in order to make away with him,
25 Amma almajiransa suka ɗauke shi da dare suka saukar da shi a cikin kwando ta taga a katanga.
his disciples took him by night, and let him down over the wall, lowering him in a basket.
26 Da ya zo Urushalima, ya yi ƙoƙarin shiga cikin almajiran amma dukansu suka ji tsoronsa, ba su gaskata cewa tabbatacce shi almajiri ba ne.
So he came to Jerusalem, and attempted to join the disciples, but they were all afraid of him, because they did not believe that he was a disciple.
27 Amma Barnabas ya ɗauke shi ya kawo shi wurin manzanni. Ya gaya musu yadda Shawulu a kan hanyarsa ya ga Ubangiji kuma cewa Ubangiji ya yi magana da shi, da yadda a Damaskus ya yi wa’azi ba tsoro a cikin sunan Yesu.
But Barnabas took him and brought him to the apostles, and told them how Saul had seen the Lord in the way, and that he had spoken to him; and also how he had preached the Name of the Lord Jesus boldly at Damascus.
28 Saboda haka Shawulu ya zauna tare da su yana kai da kawowa a sake a cikin Urushalima, yana magana gabagadi a cikin sunan Ubangiji.
Henceforth Saul was one of them, going in and out of the city, and speaking fearlessly in the Name of the Lord.
29 Ya yi magana ya kuma yi muhawwara da Yahudawa masu jin Hellenanci, amma suka yi ƙoƙarin kashe shi.
He also used to hold conversations and debates with the Grecian Jews, but they kept trying to kill him.
30 Sa’ad da’yan’uwa suka sami labarin wannan, sai suka ɗauke shi zuwa Kaisariya suka aika da shi Tarshish.
When they learned this the brothers took him down to Caesarea, and then sent him forth to Tarsus.
31 Sa’an nan ikkilisiya ko’ina a Yahudiya, Galili da kuma Samariya ta sami salama. Ta yi ƙarfi; ta kuma ƙarfafa ta wurin Ruhu Mai Tsarki, ta ƙaru sosai tana rayuwa cikin tsoron Ubangiji.
Now throughout the whole of Judea, Galilee, and Samaria the Church continued to enjoy peace and to be spiritually built up. It was increasing in members also, as it kept walking in the fear of the Lord, and in the comfort of the Holy Spirit.
32 Da Bitrus yake zazzaga ƙasar, sai ya je ya ziyarci tsarkakan da suke a Lidda.
Now Peter, as he was going from town to town, came down also to the saints who lived in Lydda.
33 A can ya tarar da wani mutum mai suna Eniyas, shanyayye wanda yake kwance kan gado shekara takwas.
Here he found a man named Aeneas, bedridden for eight years, a paralytic.
34 Sai Bitrus ya ce masa, “Eniyas, Yesu Kiristi ya warkar da kai. Tashi ka naɗe tabarmarka.” Nan da nan Eniyas ya tashi.
Peter said to him. "Aeneas, Jesus Christ cures you! Rise and make your own bed!"
35 Duk waɗanda suke zama a Lidda da Sharon suka gan shi suka kuma juyo ga Ubangiji.
At once he rose to his feet. All the people of Lydda and Sharon saw him, and they turned to the Lord.
36 A Yoffa akwai wata almajira mai suna Tabita (a harshen Girik sunanta shi ne Dokas); ita mai aikin alheri ce kullum, tana kuma taimakon matalauta.
Among the disciples at Joppa was a woman named Tabitha - which may be translated Dorcas or "Gazelle" - a woman whose life was full of good works and almsgiving, which she was doing continually.
37 A lokacin nan ta yi rashin lafiya ta mutu, aka kuma yi wa gawarta wanka aka ajiye a wani ɗaki a gidan sama.
She, as it happened, was taken ill just at that time, and died. After washing her body, they laid it in an upper room.
38 Lidda yana kusa da Yoffa; saboda haka sa’ad da almajirai suka ji cewa Bitrus yana a Lidda, sai suka aiki mutum biyu wurinsa su roƙe shi cewa, “In ka yarda ka zo nan da nan!”
And as Lydda was near Joppa, the disciples, when they heard that Peter was there, sent two men to him with the entreaty, "Delay not to come to us."
39 Sai Bitrus ya tafi tare da su, sa’ad da ya iso sai aka kai shi ɗakin saman. Duka gwauraye suka tsaya kewaye da shi, suna kuka suna nunnuna masa riguna da kuma waɗansu tufafin da Dokas ta yi yayinda take tare da su.
So Peter arose and went with them. On his arrival they took him up- stairs, and all the widows stood near him, weeping, and showing him the cloaks and garments which Dorcas used to make, while she was still with them.
40 Bitrus ya fitar da su duka daga ɗakin; sa’an nan ya durƙusa ya yi addu’a. Da ya juya wajen matacciyar, sai ya ce, “Tabita, tashi.” Ta buɗe idanunta, ta ga Bitrus sai ta tashi zaune.
But Peter put them all out, and kneeled down, and prayed; and then turning to the body, he said, "Tabitha, rise!" She opened her eyes, and on seeing Peter she sat up.
41 Ya kama ta a hannu ya taimake ta ta tsaya a ƙafafunta. Sa’an nan ya kira masu bi da kuma gwaurayen ya miƙa musu ita da rai.
Then he gave her his hand and raised her up, and after calling the saints and the widows, he gave her back to them alive.
42 Wannan ya zama sananne ko’ina a Yoffa, mutane da yawa kuma suka gaskata da Ubangiji.
This incident became known throughout Joppa, and many believed in the Lord.
43 Bitrus ya zauna a Yoffa na ɗan lokaci tare da wani mai aikin fatu mai suna Siman.
Peter stayed for some time in Joppa, lodging in the house of Simon, the tanner.
