< Mattiyu 11 >

1 Bayan Yesu ya gama yi wa almajiransa sha biyun nan umarni, sai ya yi gaba daga can don yă koyar yă kuma yi wa’azi a garuruwan Galili.
When Yeshua had finished directing his twelve disciples, he departed from there to teach and proclaim in their cities.
2 Sa’ad da Yohanna Mai Baftisma ya ji a kurkuku abin da Kiristi yake yi, sai ya aiki almajiransa
Now when Yochanan heard in the prison the works of Messiah, he sent two of his disciples
3 su tambaye shi, “Kai ne wanda zai zo, ko kuwa mu sa ido ga wani?”
and said to him, “Are you he who comes, or should we look for another?”
4 Yesu ya amsa ya ce, “Ku koma ku gaya wa Yohanna abin da kuka ji, kuka kuma gani.
Yeshua answered them, “Go and tell Yochanan the things which you hear and see:
5 Makafi suna gani, guragu suna tafiya, ana warkar da waɗanda suke da kuturta, kurame suna ji, ana tā da matattu, ana kuma yi wa matalauta wa’azin labari mai daɗi.
the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them.
6 Mai albarka ne mutumin da bai yi tuntuɓe ba saboda ni.”
Blessed is he who finds no occasion for stumbling in me.”
7 Sa’ad da almajiran Yohanna suke barin wurin, sai Yesu ya fara yi wa taron magana game da Yohanna. “Me kuka je kallo a hamada? Ciyawar da iska take kaɗawa ne?
As these went their way, Yeshua began to say to the multitudes concerning Yochanan, “What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?
8 In ba haka ba, to, me kuka je kallo? Mutum mai sanye da riguna masu kyau ne? A’a, masu sa riguna masu kyau, ai, a fadan sarakuna suke.
But what did you go out to see? A man in soft clothing? Behold, those who wear soft clothing are in kings’ houses.
9 To, me kuka je kallo ne? Annabi? I, ina gaya muku, ya ma fi annabi.
But why did you go out? To see a prophet? Yes, I tell you, and much more than a prophet.
10 Wannan shi ne wanda aka rubuta game da shi cewa, “‘Zan aiki ɗan saƙona yă sha gabanka, wanda zai shirya hanyarka a gabanka.’
For this is he, of whom it is written, ‘Behold, I send my messenger before your face, who will prepare your way before you.’
11 Gaskiya nake gaya muku. A cikin dukan waɗanda mata suka haifa, ba wani da ya taso da ya fi Yohanna Mai Baftisma girma; duk da haka mafi ƙanƙanta a mulkin sama ya fi shi girma.
Most certainly I tell you, amongst those who are born of women there has not arisen anyone greater than Yochanan the Immerser; yet he who is least in the Kingdom of Heaven is greater than he.
12 Tun daga kwanakin Yohanna Mai Baftisma har yă zuwa yanzu, mulkin sama yana sha da ƙyar, fitanannu kuma sun kama mulkin sama sun riƙe gam.
From the days of Yochanan the Immerser until now, the Kingdom of Heaven suffers violence, and the violent take it by force.
13 Gama dukan Annabawa da kuma Doka sun yi ta annabci har yă zuwa kan Yohanna.
For all the Prophets and the Torah prophesied until Yochanan.
14 In kuna niyya ku yarda da wannan, to, shi ne Iliya da dā ma zai zo.
If you are willing to receive it, this is Elijah, who is to come.
15 Duk mai kunnen ji, yă ji.
He who has ears to hear, let him hear.
16 “Da me zan kwatanta wannan zamani? Suna kama da yara da suke zaune a kasuwa, suna kiran juna, suna cewa,
“But to what shall I compare this generation? It is like children sitting in the marketplaces, who call to their companions
17 “‘Mun yi muku busa, ba ku kuwa yi rawa ba, mun rera waƙar makoki, ba ku kuwa yi makoki ba.’
and say, ‘We played the flute for you, and you didn’t dance. We mourned for you, and you didn’t lament.’
18 Gama Yohanna Mai Baftisma ya zo ba ya ciye-ciye, ba ya shaye-shaye, sai suka ce, ‘Ai, yana da aljani.’
For Yochanan came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, ‘He has a demon.’
19 Ɗan Mutum ya zo yana ciye-ciye, yana shaye-shaye, sai suka ce, ‘Ga mai haɗama da kuma mashayi, abokin masu karɓar haraji da masu zunubi.’ Amma akan tabbatar da hikima ta wurin ayyukanta.”
The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, ‘Behold, a gluttonous man and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’ But wisdom is justified by her children.”
20 Sai Yesu ya fara yin tir da biranen da aka yi yawancin ayyukansa na banmamaki, don ba su tuba ba.
Then he began to denounce the cities in which most of his mighty works had been done, because they didn’t repent.
21 “Kaitonki, Korazin! Kaitonki, Betsaida! Da a ce ayyukan banmamakin da aka yi a cikinki ne aka yi a Taya da Sidon, da tuni sun tuba sanye da rigar makoki da toka.
“Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty works had been done in Tyre and Sidon which were done in you, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes.
22 Amma ina gaya muku, za a fi jin tausayin Taya da Sidon a ranar shari’a, fiye da ku.
But I tell you, it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon on the day of judgement than for you.
23 Ke kuma Kafarnahum, za a ɗaga ki sama ne? A’a, za ki gangara zuwa zurfafa ne. Da a ce ayyukan banmamakin da aka yi a cikinki ne a aka yi a Sodom, da tana nan har yă zuwa yau. (Hadēs g86)
You, Capernaum, who are exalted to heaven, you will go down to Sheol. For if the mighty works had been done in Sodom which were done in you, it would have remained until today. (Hadēs g86)
24 Amma ina gaya miki, za a fi jin tausayin Sodom fiye da ke a ranar shari’a.”
But I tell you that it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom on the day of judgement, than for you.”
25 A wannan lokaci sai Yesu ya ce, “Ina yabonka, Uba, Ubangijin sama da ƙasa, gama ka ɓoye waɗannan abubuwa ga masu hikima da masu ilimi, ka kuma bayyana su ga ƙananan yara.
At that time, Yeshua answered, “I thank you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you hid these things from the wise and understanding, and revealed them to infants.
26 I, Uba, gama wannan shi ne abin da ka ji daɗin yi.
Yes, Father, for so it was well-pleasing in your sight.
27 “Dukan kome Ubana ya danƙa mini. Ba wanda ya san Ɗan sai dai Uban, ba kuma wanda ya san Uban, sai dai Ɗan da kuma waɗanda Ɗan ya so yă bayyana musu shi.
All things have been delivered to me by my Father. No one knows the Son, except the Father; neither does anyone know the Father, except the Son and he to whom the Son desires to reveal him.
28 “Ku zo gare ni, dukanku da kuka gaji kuke kuma fama da kaya, zan kuwa ba ku hutu.
“Come to me, all you who labour and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest.
29 Ku ɗauki karkiyata a kanku, ku kuma yi koyi da ni, gama ni mai tawali’u ne marar girman kai, za ku kuwa sami hutu don rayukanku.
Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart; and you will find rest for your souls.
30 Gama karkiyata mai sauƙi ce, kayana kuma marasa nauyi ne.”
For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”
