Mattiyu 18
1 A lokacin nan sai almajirai suka zo wurin Yesu suka yi tambaya suka ce, “Wane ne mafi girma a mulkin sama?”
At that time the disciples came to Jesus and asked, “Who then is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?”
2 Sai ya kira ƙaramin yaro ya sa shi yă tsaya a tsakiyarsu.
Jesus invited a little child to stand among them.
3 Sai ya ce, “Gaskiya nake gaya muku, in ba kun canja kuka zama kamar ƙananan yara ba, labudda, ba za ku shiga mulkin sama ba.
“Truly I tell you,” He said, “unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.
4 Saboda haka, duk wanda ya ƙasƙantar da kansa kamar wannan yaro, shi ne mafi girma a mulkin sama.
Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
5 Duk kuma wanda ya karɓi ƙaramin yaro kamar wannan a cikin sunana ya karɓe ni ne.
And whoever welcomes a little child like this in My name welcomes Me.
6 “Amma duk wanda ya sa ɗaya daga cikin ƙananan nan da suka gaskata da ni ya yi zunubi, zai fiye masa a rataya babban dutsen niƙa a wuyarsa, a kuma nutsar da shi a zurfin teku.
But if anyone causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to stumble, it would be better for him to have a large millstone hung around his neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea.
7 Kaiton duniya saboda abubuwan da suke sa mutane su yi zunubi! Dole irin waɗannan abubuwa su zo, sai dai kaiton mutumin da ya zama sanadin kawo su!
Woe to the world for the causes of sin. These stumbling blocks must come, but woe to the man through whom they come!
8 In hannunka ko ƙafarka yana sa ka zunubi, yanke shi ka yar. Zai fiye maka ka shiga rai da hannu ko ƙafa ɗaya da hannuwa biyu ko ƙafafu biyu da a jefar da kai cikin madawwamiyar wuta da hannuwa biyu ko ƙafafu biyu. (aiōnios g166)
If your hand or your foot causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life crippled or lame than to have two hands and two feet and be thrown into the eternal fire. (aiōnios g166)
9 In kuma idonka yana sa ka zunubi, ƙwaƙule shi ka yar. Zai fiye maka ka shiga rai da ido ɗaya, da ka shiga jahannama ta wuta da idanunka biyu. (Geenna g1067)
And if your eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life with one eye than to have two eyes and be thrown into the fire of hell. (Geenna g1067)
10 “Ku lura, kada ku rena ɗaya daga cikin waɗannan ƙanana. Gama ina faɗa muku mala’ikunsu a sama kullum suna duban fuskar Ubana da yake cikin sama.
See that you do not look down on any of these little ones. For I tell you that their angels in heaven always see the face of My Father in heaven.
12 “Me kuka gani? In wani yana da tumaki ɗari, sai ɗaya daga cikinsu ta ɓace, ba sai yă bar tasa’in da taran a kan tuddai yă je neman guda ɗayan da ta ɓace ba?
What do you think? If a man has a hundred sheep and one of them goes astray, will he not leave the ninety-nine on the hills and go out to search for the one that is lost?
13 In kuwa ya same ta, ina gaya muku gaskiya, zai yi murna saboda ɗayan fiye da tasa’in da taran da ba su ɓace ba.
And if he finds it, truly I tell you, he rejoices more over that one sheep than over the ninety-nine that did not go astray.
14 Haka ma Ubanku da yake cikin sama ba ya so ko ɗaya daga cikin ƙananan nan yă ɓace.
In the same way, your Father in heaven is not willing that any of these little ones should perish.
15 “In ɗan’uwanka ya yi maka laifi, ka je ka nuna masa laifinsa, tsakaninku biyu kaɗai. In ya saurare ka, ka maido da ɗan’uwanka ke nan.
If your brother sins against you, go and confront him privately. If he listens to you, you have won your brother over.
16 Amma in bai saurare ka ba, ka je tare da mutum ɗaya ko biyu, domin ‘a tabbatar da kowace magana a bakin shaidu biyu ko uku.’
But if he will not listen, take one or two others along, so that ‘every matter may be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses.’
17 In kuwa ya ƙi yă saurare su, sai ka gaya wa ikkilisiya; in kuma ya ƙi yă saurari ikkilisiya ma, ka yi da shi kamar marar sanin Allah ko mai karɓar haraji.
If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the church. And if he refuses to listen even to the church, regard him as you would a pagan or a tax collector.
18 “Gaskiya nake gaya muku, duk abin da kuka daure a duniya, za a daure a sama, duk kuma abin da kuka kunce a duniya, za a kunce shi a sama.
Truly I tell you, whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.
19 “Har wa yau, ina gaya muku cewa in mutum biyu a cikinku a duniya suka yarda su roƙi wani abu, Ubana da yake cikin sama zai yi muku.
Again, I tell you truly that if two of you on the earth agree about anything you ask for, it will be done for you by My Father in heaven.
20 Gama inda mutum biyu ko uku suka taru cikin sunana, a can ma ina tare da su.”
For where two or three gather together in My name, there am I with them.”
21 Sai Bitrus ya zo wurin Yesu ya yi masa tambaya ya ce, “Ubangiji, sau nawa zan yafe wa ɗan’uwana sa’ad da ya yi mini zunubi? Har sau bakwai?”
Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, “Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother who sins against me? Up to seven times?”
22 Yesu amsa ya ce, “Ina gaya maka, ba sau bakwai ba, amma sau saba’in da bakwai.
Jesus answered, “I tell you, not just seven times, but seventy-seven times!
23 “Saboda haka, mulkin sama yana kama da wani sarki wanda ya so yă yi ƙididdigar dukiyarsa da take a hannun bayinsa.
Because of this, the kingdom of heaven is like a king who wanted to settle accounts with his servants.
24 Da ya fara ƙididdigar, sai aka kawo masa wani wanda yake bin bashin talenti dubu goma.
As he began the settlements, a debtor was brought to him owing ten thousand talents.
25 Da yake bai iya biya ba, sai maigida ya umarta a sayar da shi da matarsa da yaransa da kuma duk abin da yake da shi, a biya bashin.
Since the man was unable to pay, the master ordered that he be sold to pay his debt, along with his wife and children and everything he owned.
26 “Bawan ya durƙusa a gabansa. Ya yi roƙo ya ce, ‘Ka yi mini haƙuri, zan biya ka ƙaf.’
Then the servant fell on his knees before him. ‘Have patience with me,’ he begged, ‘and I will pay back everything.’
27 Maigidan bawan ya ji tausayinsa, ya yafe masa bashin, ya kuma sake shi.
His master had compassion on him, forgave his debt, and released him.
28 “Amma da wannan bawa ya fita, sai ya gamu da wani abokin bautarsa wanda yake binsa bashin dinari ɗari. Sai ya cafke shi, ya shaƙe shi a wuya yana cewa, ‘Biya ni abin da nake binka!’
But when that servant went out, he found one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred denarii. He grabbed him and began to choke him, saying, ‘Pay back what you owe me!’
29 “Wannan abokin bautarsa ya durƙusa ya roƙe shi, ‘Ka yi mini haƙuri, zan biya ka.’
So his fellow servant fell down and begged him, ‘Have patience with me, and I will pay you back.’
30 “Amma ya ƙi. A maimako, sai ya je ya sa aka jefa shi a kurkuku, har yă biya bashin.
But he refused. Instead, he went and had the man thrown into prison until he could pay his debt.
31 Sa’ad da sauran bayin suka ga abin da ya faru, abin ya ɓata musu rai ƙwarai, sai suka tafi suka faɗa wa maigidansu dukan abin da ya faru.
When his fellow servants saw what had happened, they were greatly distressed, and they went and recounted all of this to their master.
32 “Sai maigidan ya kira wannan bawa. Ya ce, ‘Kai mugun bawa, na yafe duk bashin da nake binka domin ka roƙe ni.
Then the master summoned him and declared, ‘You wicked servant! I forgave all your debt because you begged me.
33 Ashe, bai kamata kai ma ka ji tausayin abokin bautarka yadda na yi maka ba?’
Shouldn’t you have had mercy on your fellow servant, just as I had on you?’
34 Cikin fushi, maigidan ya miƙa shi ga ma’aikatan kurkuku su gwada masa azaba, har yă biya dukan bashin da ake binsa.
In anger his master turned him over to the jailers to be tortured, until he should repay all that he owed.
35 “Haka Ubana da yake cikin sama zai yi da kowannenku, in ba ku yafe wa’yan’uwanku daga zuciyarku ba.”
That is how My heavenly Father will treat each of you unless you forgive your brother from your heart.”
