Kolossiyawa 3
1 Da yake an tashe ku tare da Kiristi, sai ku sa zukatanku a kan abubuwan da suke sama, inda Kiristi yake zaune a hannun dama na Allah.
IF, then, you have risen with the Meshiha, seek (the realities) which are on high, where the Meshiha sitteth at the right hand of Aloha.
2 Ku sa hankulanku a kan abubuwan sama, ba kan abubuwan duniya ba.
Think of that which is on high, and not of that on earth.
3 Gama kun mutu, ranku yanzu kuwa yana ɓoye tare da Kiristi a cikin Allah.
For you are dead, and your life is hid with the Meshiha in Aloha;
4 Sa’ad da Kiristi, wanda shi ne ranku, ya bayyana, ku ma za ku bayyana tare da shi cikin ɗaukaka.
and when the Meshiha, who is our life, shall be manifested, then also will you be manifested with him in glory.
5 Saboda haka, sai ku fid da duk wani abin da yake kawo sha’awa a zukatanku, fasikanci, ƙazanta, sha’awa, muguwar sha’awa, da kuma kwaɗayi wanda shi ma bautar gumaka ne.
Put to death, then, your members that are upon the earth: fornication, uncleanness, and passions, and evil desires, and covetousness, which itself is idolatry.
6 Gama fushin Allah zai sauko a kan masu aikata waɗannan.
For on account of these cometh the anger of Aloha upon the sons of disobedience.
7 Dā kun yi waɗannan abubuwa, sa’ad da rayuwar tana cikin duniya mai wannan hali.
In these also you walked aforetime, when you were conversant in them.
8 Amma yanzu dole ku raba kanku da dukan ire-iren abubuwan nan. Ku daina fushi, ku daina ƙiyayya da ƙeta. Ku bar ɓatan suna da kuma ƙazamar magana daga leɓunanku.
But now cease you from all these; anger, wrath, malice, reviling, impure speech:
9 Kada ku yi wa juna ƙarya, da yake kun tuɓe tsohon halinku tare da ayyukansa
and lie not one to another, but put off the old man with all his manners,
10 kun ɗauki sabon halin nan da ake sabuntawa ga sani, bisa ga kamannin Mahaliccinsa.
and wear the new, who is renovated by knowledge in the image of his Creator,
11 A wannan sabuwar rayuwa babu bambanci ko kai mutumin Al’ummai ne ko mutumin Yahuda, mai kaciya ne ko marar kaciya, baƙo, baƙauye, bawa ne ko’yantacce, gama Kiristi shi ne kome, kuma yana cikin kome.
where there is not Jihudoya and Aramoya, nor circumcision and uncircumcision, nor Javanoya and Barbaroya, nor slave and freeman, but the Meshiha is all and in all.
12 Da yake Allah ya mai da ku zaɓaɓɓu, tsarkaka, ƙaunatattu, sai ku dinga jin tausayin juna, kuna yin alheri, kuna nuna tawali’u da sauƙinkai da jimrewa.
Wear, therefore, as the chosen of Aloha, saints and beloved, compassions and tenderness, and benignity, and lowliness of mind, and composure, and patience.
13 Ku riƙa yin haƙuri da juna kuna kuma gafarta wa juna duk wani laifin da wani ya yi muku. Ku gafarta kamar yadda Ubangiji ya gafarce ku.
And bear with one another, and forgive one another, if any man have a complaint against his neighbour; even as the Meshiha hath forgiven you, so also forgive;
14 Fiye da waɗannan duka, ku yi ƙaunar juna, gama ƙauna ce take haɗa kome gaba ɗaya.
and with all these charity, which is the girdle of perfection.
15 Ku bar salamar Kiristi tă yi mulki a zukatanku, da yake a matsayin gaɓoɓin jiki ɗaya an kira ku ga salama. Ku zama masu godiya.
And let the peace of the Meshiha direct your hearts, for to it you have been called in one body; and give thanks to the Meshiha,
16 Ku bar maganar Kiristi ta zauna a cikinku a yalwace yayinda kuke koya, kuna kuma yi wa juna gargaɗi da dukan hikima, da kuma yayinda kuke waƙoƙin zabura, waƙoƙi da waƙoƙin ruhaniya tare da godiya a zukatanku ga Allah.
whose word shall dwell in you abundantly, in all wisdom. And teach and admonish yourselves in psalms and in hymns and in songs of the Spirit, and with grace sing with your hearts unto Aloha.
17 Kuma ko mene ne kuke yi, ko cikin magana ko cikin ayyuka, ku yi shi duka a cikin sunan Ubangiji Yesu, kuna yin godiya ga Allah Uba ta wurinsa.
And whatsoever you do, either in word or work, do (it) in the name of our Lord Jeshu Meshiha, and with thanksgiving through him unto Aloha the Father.
18 Mata, ku yi biyayya ga mazanku, yadda ya dace cikin Ubangiji.
WIVES, be subject to your husbands, as it is right in the Meshiha.
19 Maza, ku ƙaunaci matanku kada ku nuna musu hali marar tausayi.
Men, love your wives, and be not bitter against them.
20 ’Ya’ya, ku yi biyayya ga iyayenku cikin kome, gama wannan yakan gamshi Ubangiji.
Children, obey your parents in every thing, for so it is pleasing before our Lord.
21 Ubanni, kada ku matsa wa yaranku lamba, don kada su fid da zuciya.
Fathers, exasperate not your children, that they be not discouraged.
22 Bayi, ku yi biyayya ga iyayengijinku na duniya cikin kome; kada ku yi aikin ganin ido kamar masu neman yabon mutane, sai dai ku yi aiki tsakaninku da Allah, kamar masu tsoron Ubangiji.
Servants, obey in every thing your masters according to the flesh, not in the sight of the eye (only), as those who please men, but from a simple heart, and in the fear of the Lord.
23 Kome kuke yi, ku yi shi da dukan zuciyarku, sai ka ce ga Ubangiji kuke yi, ba ga mutum ba.
And all that you do, from all your heart do (it), as to our Lord, and not as to men.
24 Kun san cewa zai ba ku gādo a matsayin ladanku. Ubangiji Kiristi ne fa kuke bauta wa.
And know that from our Lord you receive the reward in the inheritance; for the Lord the Meshiha you serve.
25 Duk wanda ya yi laifi, za a sāka masa don laifinsa, babu sonkai.
But he who injureth is recompensed as he had injured, and there is no acceptance of persons.
