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 however you have risen with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, enthroned at God's right hand.
2 Ku sa hankulanku a kan abubuwan sama, ba kan abubuwan duniya ba.
Give your minds to the things that are above, not to the things that are on the earth.
3 Gama kun mutu, ranku yanzu kuwa yana ɓoye tare da Kiristi a cikin Allah.
For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.
4 Sa’ad da Kiristi, wanda shi ne ranku, ya bayyana, ku ma za ku bayyana tare da shi cikin ɗaukaka.
When Christ appears--He is our true Life--then you also will appear 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.
Therefore put to death your earthward inclinations--fornication, impurity, sensual passion, unholy desire, and all greed, for that is a form of idolatry.
6 Gama fushin Allah zai sauko a kan masu aikata waɗannan.
It is on account of these very sins that God's anger is coming,
7 Dā kun yi waɗannan abubuwa, sa’ad da rayuwar tana cikin duniya mai wannan hali.
and you also were once addicted to them, while you were living under their power.
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 you must rid yourselves of every kind of sin--angry and passionate outbreaks, ill-will, evil speaking, foul-mouthed abuse--so that these may never soil your lips.
9 Kada ku yi wa juna ƙarya, da yake kun tuɓe tsohon halinku tare da ayyukansa
Do not speak falsehoods to one another, for you have stripped off the old self with its doings,
10 kun ɗauki sabon halin nan da ake sabuntawa ga sani, bisa ga kamannin Mahaliccinsa.
and have clothed yourselves with the new self which is being remoulded into full knowledge so as to become like Him who created it.
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.
In that new creation there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, barbarian, Scythian, slave nor free man, but Christ is everything and is in all of us.
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.
Clothe yourselves therefore, as God's own people holy and dearly loved, with tender-heartedness, kindness, lowliness of mind, meekness, long-suffering;
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.
bearing with one another and readily forgiving each other, if any one has a grievance against another. Just as the Lord has forgiven you, you also must forgive.
14 Fiye da waɗannan duka, ku yi ƙaunar juna, gama ƙauna ce take haɗa kome gaba ɗaya.
And over all these put on love, which is the perfect bond of union;
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 which Christ gives settle all questionings in your hearts, to which peace indeed you were called as belonging to His one Body; and be thankful.
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.
Let the teaching concerning Christ remain as a rich treasure in your hearts. In all wisdom teach and admonish one another with psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, and sing with grace in your hearts to God.
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 whatever you do, in word or in deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, and let it be through Him that you give thanks to God the Father.
18 Mata, ku yi biyayya ga mazanku, yadda ya dace cikin Ubangiji.
Married women, be submissive to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord.
19 Maza, ku ƙaunaci matanku kada ku nuna musu hali marar tausayi.
Married men, be affectionate to your wives, and do not treat them harshly.
20 ’Ya’ya, ku yi biyayya ga iyayenku cikin kome, gama wannan yakan gamshi Ubangiji.
Children be obedient to your parents in everything; for that is right for Christians.
21 Ubanni, kada ku matsa wa yaranku lamba, don kada su fid da zuciya.
Fathers, do not fret and harass your children, or you may make them sullen and morose.
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.
Slaves, be obedient in everything to your earthly masters; not in acts of eye service, as aiming only to please men, but with simplicity of purpose, because you fear the Lord.
23 Kome kuke yi, ku yi shi da dukan zuciyarku, sai ka ce ga Ubangiji kuke yi, ba ga mutum ba.
Whatever you are doing, let your hearts be in your work, as a thing done for the Lord and not for men.
24 Kun san cewa zai ba ku gādo a matsayin ladanku. Ubangiji Kiristi ne fa kuke bauta wa.
For you know that it is from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. Christ is the Master whose bondservants you are.
25 Duk wanda ya yi laifi, za a sāka masa don laifinsa, babu sonkai.
The man who perpetrates a wrong will find the wrong repaid to him; and with God there are no merely earthly distinctions.
