Luka 3
1 A shekara ta goma sha biyar ta mulkin Kaisar Tiberiyus, a lokacin Buntus Bilatus ne gwamnar Yahudiya, Hiridus kuma yana sarautar Galili, ɗan’uwansa Filibus yana sarautar Ituriya da Tarakunitis, Lisaniyas kuma yana sarautar Abiline.
Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judea, and Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother Philip tetrarch of the region of Ituraea and Trachonitis, and Lysanias tetrarch of Abilene,
2 A lokacin ne Annas da Kayifas suke manyan firistoci. Sai maganar Allah ta zo wa Yohanna, ɗan Zakariya a hamada.
in the high priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas, the word of God came to John, the son of Zechariah, in the wilderness.
3 Ya zaga dukan ƙasar da take kewaye da Urdun, yana wa’azin baftismar tuba don gafarar zunubai.
He came into all the region around the Jordan, preaching a baptism of repentance for forgiveness of sins.
4 Kamar yadda yake a rubuce a littafin annabi Ishaya. “Muryar mai kira a hamada, ‘Ku shirya wa Ubangiji hanya, ku miƙe hanyoyi dominsa.
As it is written in the scroll of the words of Isaiah the prophet, "The voice of one crying in the wilderness, 'Prepare the way of the Lord. Make his roads straight.
5 Za a cike kowane kwari, a farfashe kowane dutse da kowane tudu. Za a miƙe hanyoyin da suka karkace, a gyaggyara hanyoyi masu gargaɗa su zama sumul.
Every valley will be filled, and every mountain and hill will be made low, and the crooked will be made straight, and the rough ways smooth.
6 Dukan’yan Adam kuwa za su ga ceton Allah!’”
And all humanity will see the salvation of God.'"
7 Yohanna ya ce wa taron da suke zuwa domin yă yi musu baftisma, “Ku macizai! Wa ya gargaɗe ku, ku guje wa fushin nan mai zuwa?
He said therefore to the crowds who went out to be baptized by him, "You offspring of vipers, who warned you to flee from the wrath to come?
8 Ku yi ayyukan da suka dace da tuba. Kada ma ku yi tunani za ku iya ce wa kanku, ‘Ai, muna da mahaifinmu Ibrahim.’ Ina gaya muku cewa daga cikin duwatsun nan Allah zai iya tā da’ya’ya wa Ibrahim.
Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of repentance, and do not begin to say among yourselves, 'We have Abraham for our father;' for I tell you that God is able to raise up children to Abraham from these stones.
9 An riga an sa bakin gatari a gindin itatuwa, kuma duk itacen da bai ba da’ya’ya masu kyau ba, za a sare shi a jefa cikin wuta.”
Even now the axe also lies at the root of the trees. Every tree therefore that does not bring forth good fruit is cut down, and thrown into the fire."
10 Sai taron suka tambaye shi, suka ce “Me za mu yi ke nan?”
The crowds asked him, "What then must we do?"
11 Ya amsa ya ce, “Ya kamata, mutumin da yake da riguna biyu, yă raba da wanda ba shi da riga, mai abinci kuma yă yi haka.”
He answered them, "He who has two coats, let him give to him who has none. He who has food, let him do likewise."
12 Masu karɓar haraji ma suka zo, domin a yi musu baftisma. Suka yi tambaya, suka ce “Malam, me ya kamata mu yi?”
Tax collectors also came to be baptized, and they said to him, "Teacher, what must we do?"
13 Ya ce musu, “Kada ku karɓa fiye da abin da aka ce a karɓa.”
He said to them, "Collect no more than that which is appointed to you."
14 Sai waɗansu sojoji suka tambaye shi, “Mu fa? Me ya kamata mu yi?” Sai ya amsa ya ce, “Kada ku ƙwace kuɗin mutane, kada kuma ku yi shaidar ƙarya. Ku yi haƙuri da abin da ake biyanku.”
Soldiers also asked him, saying, "What about us? What must we do?" He said to them, "Extort from no one by violence, neither accuse anyone wrongfully. Be content with your wages."
15 Mutane suka zuba ido, suna kuma tunani a zuciyarsu, ko Yohanna ne Kiristi wanda ake sauraron zuwansa.
As the people were in expectation, and all were wondering in their hearts concerning John, whether perhaps he was the Christ,
16 Yohanna ya amsa musu duka ya ce, “Ina muku baftisma da ruwa. Amma wani wanda ya fi ni iko yana zuwa, ban ma isa in kunce igiyar takalmansa ba. Shi zai yi muku baftisma da Ruhu Mai Tsarki da wuta kuma.
John answered them all, "I indeed baptize you with water, but he comes who is mightier than I, the strap of whose sandals I am not worthy to loosen. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire,
17 Matankaɗinsa yana a hannunsa don yă tankaɗe sussukarsa ya kuma tattara alkama cikin rumbunsa, amma zai ƙone yayin da wutar da ba a iya kashewa.”
whose winnowing fork is in his hand, to clear his threshing floor, and to gather the wheat into his barn; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire."
18 Da kalmomi masu yawa Yohanna ya yi wa mutane gargaɗi, ya kuma yi musu wa’azin bishara.
Then with many other exhortations he preached good news to the people,
19 Amma da Yohanna ya tsawata wa Hiridus mai mulki saboda Hiridiyas, matar ɗan’uwansa, da kuma dukan sauran mugayen abubuwan da ya yi,
but Herod the tetrarch, being reproved by him for Herodias, his brother's wife, and for all the evil things which Herod had done,
20 Hiridus dai ya ƙara ɓata al’amarin. Ya sa a kulle Yohanna a kurkuku.
added this also to them all, that he shut up John in prison.
21 Sa’ad da ake wa dukan mutane baftisma, sai aka yi wa Yesu shi ma. Da yana cikin addu’a, sai sama ya buɗe,
Now it happened, when all the people were baptized, Jesus also had been baptized, and was praying. The sky was opened,
22 Ruhu Mai Tsarki kuma ya sauko masa a wata siffa, kamar kurciya. Sai murya ta fito daga sama, ta ce, “Kai ne Ɗana, wanda nake ƙauna, kai ne kuma kana faranta mini zuciya ƙwarai.”
and the Holy Spirit descended in a bodily form as a dove on him; and a voice came out of the sky, saying "You are my beloved Son. In you I am well pleased."
23 To, Yesu kansa yana da shekaru kusan talatin da haihuwa sa’ad da ya fara aikinsa. An ɗauka shi ɗan Yusuf ne, ɗan Heli,
