Markus 3
1 Wani lokaci, da ya sāke shiga majami’a, sai ga wani mutum mai shanyayyen hannu.
[On another] ([Sabbath/Jewish day of rest]), Jesus entered (the synagogue/the Jewish meeting place) again. There was a man there whose hand was shriveled.
2 Waɗansu daga cikin mutane suna neman dalilin zargin Yesu, sai suka zuba masa ido, su ga ko zai warkar da shi a ranar Asabbaci.
[Some men of the Pharisee sect] watched him carefully in order to see whether he would heal the man (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day). They did this in order that [if he healed the man], they would accuse him of disobeying [their Jewish laws, because he worked] ([on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day]).
3 Yesu ya ce wa mutumin mai shanyayyen hannun, “Tashi ka tsaya a gaban kowa.”
Jesus said to the man whose hand was shriveled, “Stand up here in front of everyone!” [So the man stood up].
4 Sai Yesu ya tambaye su ya ce, “Me ya kamata a yi bisa ga doka, a ranar Asabbaci, a aikata alheri, ko a aikata mugunta, a ceci rai, ko a yi kisa?” Amma suka yi shiru.
Then Jesus said [to the Pharisees], “Do the laws [that God gave Moses] permit people to do good ([on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day]), or do they permit people to do evil? Specifically, do his laws permit us to save a person’s life (on the Sabbath/on the Jewish rest day), or [do they permit us] to let him die [by refusing to help him]?” But they did not reply.
5 Sai ya kalle su da fushi, don taurin zuciyarsu ya ɓata masa rai sosai. Sai ya ce wa mutumin, “Miƙo hannunka.” Sai ya miƙa, hannunsa kuwa ya koma lafiyayye.
He looked around at them angrily. He was very distressed that they were stubbornly [not wanting to help the man]. So he said to the man, “Reach out your hand!” When the man reached out his withered hand, his hand became all right again!
6 Sai Farisiyawa suka fita, suka fara ƙulla shawara da mutanen Hiridus yadda za su kashe Yesu.
Then the Pharisees [decided to get rid of Jesus. So] after they left [the meeting house], they [immediately met with some of] the Jews who supported Herod [Antipas, who ruled Galilee district]. Together they planned how they could kill Jesus.
7 Yesu da almajiransa suka janye zuwa tafkin, taro mai yawa kuwa daga Galili ya bi shi.
Jesus and his disciples left [that] town and went to an area further along [Galilee Lake in order to get away from the people]. But a great crowd of people followed him. They were people who came from Galilee [district],
8 Mutane da yawa daga Yahudiya, da Urushalima, da Edom, da kuma yankunan da suke ƙetaren Urdun, da kewayen Taya, da Sidon suka zo wurinsa, don sun ji dukan abubuwan da yake yi.
from Jerusalem [city], from [other towns of] Judea [district], from Idumea [district], from [the region on] the [east] side of the Jordan [River], and from [the region] around Tyre and Sidon [cities]. This great crowd of people came to him because they heard about what he was doing.
9 Saboda taron, sai ya ce wa almajiransa su shirya masa ƙaramin jirgin ruwa, don kada mutane su matse shi.
Because he had healed many people, many [other] people who had various illnesses pushed forward in order that by touching him [they would come well]. So he told his disciples that they should get a small boat ready for him [to get in and teach from it]. He wanted to do this in order that the crowd would not crush him [when they pushed forward to touch him].
10 Gama ya warkar da mutane da yawa, masu cututtuka suka yi ta ƙoƙarin zuwa gaba, don su taɓa shi.
11 Duk sa’ad da mugayen ruhohi suka gan shi, sai fāɗi a gabansa, su ɗaga murya, su ce, “Kai Ɗan Allah ne.”
Whenever the evil spirits saw Jesus, [they caused the people whom they controlled] to fall down in front of Jesus [in recognition of Jesus’ power]. Then they exclaimed, “You are (the Son of God/the man who is also God)!”
12 Amma yakan tsawata musu, kada su shaida ko wane ne shi.
He commanded the [evil spirits] strongly that they should not tell anyone who he was.
13 Yesu ya hau gefen wani dutse, ya kira waɗanda yake so, suka kuma zo wurinsa.
Jesus went [with many other people] up into the hills. After he picked out [from among them] the men whom he wanted [to accompany him], they came [close] to him.
14 Ya naɗa sha biyu, ya kira su manzanni don su kasance tare da shi, domin kuma yă aike su yin wa’azi,
He appointed twelve men in order that they might be with him and in order that he might send them out to preach. He called them apostles.
15 don kuma su sami ikon fitar da aljanu.
He also gave them power in order that they might expel evil spirits [from people].
16 Ga sha biyun da ya naɗa. Siman (wanda ya ba shi suna Bitrus);
These were the twelve men he appointed: Simon, to whom he gave the [new] name Peter; his [younger] brother Andrew;
17 Yaƙub ɗan Zebedi da kuma ɗan’uwansa Yohanna (ga waɗannan kuwa ya sa musu suna Buwarnajis, wato, “’ya’yan tsawa”);
James, [the son] of Zebedee, and John, the [younger] brother of James, to [both of] whom he added the [new] name, ‘Men who are like Thunder’. [because of their fiery zeal];
18 Andarawus, Filibus, Bartolomeyu, Mattiyu, Toma, Yaƙub ɗan Alfayus, Taddayus, Siman wanda ake kira Zilot,
Philip; Bartholomew; Levi, whose other name was Matthew; Thomas; [another] James, the son of Alphaeus; Thaddeus; [another] Simon, who was a [member of the party that wanted] to overthrow [the Roman government];
19 da kuma Yahuda Iskariyot, wanda ya bashe Yesu.
and Judas Iscariot (OR, Judas, the man from Kerioth [Town]). He was the one who [later] (betrayed Jesus/helped Jesus’ enemies seize him).
20 Sai Yesu ya shiga wani gida, taro kuma ya sāke haɗuwa, har shi da almajiransa ma ba su sami damar cin abinci ba.
Jesus [along with his disciples] went to the house where he was staying [in Capernaum. Again a crowd gathered where he was]. There were many people crowding around him, so that he and his disciples had no time when they could eat or [when they could do anything else].
21 Da’yan’uwansa suka sami wannan labari, sai suka tafi don su dawo da shi, suna cewa, “Ai, ya haukace.”
After his relatives heard about this, they went to take him home [with them] because (some people/they) were saying that he was insane.
22 Malaman dokokin da suka zo daga Urushalima suka ce, “Ai, yana da Be’elzebub! Da ikon sarkin aljanu yake fitar da aljanu.”
[Around that time] some men who taught the [Jewish] laws came down from Jerusalem [city. They heard that Jesus was expelling demons]. So they were telling [people], “Beelzebub, who rules the evil spirits, controls him. He is the one who enables this man to expel evil spirits [from people]!”
23 Sai Yesu ya kira su, ya yi musu magana da misalai ya ce, “Yaya Shaiɗan zai fitar da Shaiɗan?
Jesus summoned those men. [Then he spoke to them] in parables [to enable them to realize that Satan would not oppose his own evil spirits. He also wanted them to realize that by expelling evil spirits, he was demonstrating that he was much more powerful than Satan]. So he said, “([It is ridiculous] to suggest that Satan would expel his own [evil spirits]!/Why would Satan expel his own [evil spirits]?) [RHQ]
24 In mulki yana gāba da kansa, wannan mulki ba zai tsaya ba.
If [people who live in the same] country are fighting one another, they will cease to be a single group under one ruler.
25 In gida yana gāba da kansa, wannan gida ba zai tsaya ba.
And if [people who live in the same] house fight each other, they will certainly not remain [as one family].
26 In kuwa Shaiɗan yana gāba da kansa, ya kuma rabu biyu, ba zai tsaya ba, ƙarshensa ya zo ke nan.
Similarly, if Satan and his [evil spirits] were fighting one another, instead of remaining strong, he would become powerless.
27 Tabbatacce, ba mai shiga gidan mai ƙarfi yă kwashe dukiyarsa, sai bayan ya daure mai ƙarfin, sa’an nan zai iya yin fashin gidansa.
Contrary to [what you say about me], someone can enter the house of a strong man [like Satan] and carry off his possessions only if he first ties up the strong man. Then [and only then] will he [be able to] steal the things in that man’s house.”
28 Gaskiya nake gaya muku, za a gafarta duk zunubai da kuma saɓon mutane suka yi.
[Jesus also said], “Consider this carefully! People may sin in many ways and they may speak evilly about God, but [if] they [then are sorry and ask God to] forgive [them], [God] will forgive them for doing that.
30 Ya faɗi haka domin suna cewa, “Yana da mugun ruhu.”
[Jesus told them that] because [they refused to admit that the Holy Spirit was helping him to expel demons. Instead], they were saying, “An evil spirit is controlling him!”
31 Sai mahaifiyar Yesu tare da’yan’uwansa suka iso. Suna tsaye a waje, sai suka aiki wani ciki yă kira shi.
Jesus’ mother and [younger] siblings arrived. While they stood outside, they sent [someone inside] in order to call him [outside].
32 Taron yana zaune kewaye da shi, sai suka ce masa, “Mahaifiyarka da’yan’uwanka suna waje, suna nemanka.”
A crowd was sitting around Jesus. One of them said to him, “Listen/Hey, your mother and your [younger] brothers and sisters are outside, and they are wanting (to see/to talk with) you!”
33 Ya yi tambaya ya ce, “Su wane ne mahaifiyata, da’yan’uwana?”
Jesus replied to them, “([I will tell you something about] my mother and my brothers.[/Do you know whom I consider to be like] my mother and my brothers?)” [RHQ]
34 Sai ya dubi waɗanda suke zaune kewaye da shi ya ce, “Ga mahaifiyata da’yan’uwana!
After he looked around at [the disciples] who were sitting around him [in a circle], he said, “Look here! I [love these men as much as] I [love] my mother and my brothers.
35 Duk wanda yake aikata nufin Allah, shi ne ɗan’uwana, da’yar’uwata, da kuma mahaifiyata.”
Those who habitually do what God wants are [as dear to me] [MET] as my brother, my sister, or my mother!”
