< Mattiyu 18 >
1 A lokacin nan sai almajirai suka zo wurin Yesu suka yi tambaya suka ce, “Wane ne mafi girma a mulkin sama?”
IN that hour the disciples came near to Jeshu, saying, Who is greatest in the kingdom of heaven?
2 Sai ya kira ƙaramin yaro ya sa shi yă tsaya a tsakiyarsu.
And Jeshu called a child, and made him stand in the midst of 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.
and said, Amen I say to you, unless you be converted and become as children, you shall not enter the kingdom of heaven.
4 Saboda haka, duk wanda ya ƙasƙantar da kansa kamar wannan yaro, shi ne mafi girma a mulkin sama.
Whosoever therefore humbleth himself as this child, he shall be greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
5 Duk kuma wanda ya karɓi ƙaramin yaro kamar wannan a cikin sunana ya karɓe ni ne.
And whosoever shall receive as like this child in my name, he receiveth 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.
And every one that shall offend one of these little ones who believe in me, to him it had been better that the mill-stone of an ass were hung to his neck, and himself plunged into 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 from causes of offence! for it is unavoidable that causes of offence will 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 )
but woe to the man by whom the causes of offence shall come! If, then, thine hand or thy foot shall be a cause of offence to thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee; for it is good for thee that thou enter into life lame or mutilated; and not that, having two hands or two feet, thou fall into the fire of eternity. (aiōnios )
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 )
And if thine eye be a cause of offence to thee, dig it out, and cast it from thee; good (it is) for thee that with one eye thou enter into life; and not that, having two eyes, thou fall into the gihâna of fire. (Geenna )
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 contemn not one of these little ones: for I say unto you that their angels in all time are beholding the face of my Father who is in heaven.
For the Son of man is come to save that which had perished.
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?
How doth it appear to you? if a man have an hundred sheep, and one of them shall wander from them, doth he not leave the ninety and nine on the mountain, and, going, seek that which had wandered?
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 shall find it, assuredly I tell you that he rejoiceth in it more than (in) the ninety and nine which wandered not.
14 Haka ma Ubanku da yake cikin sama ba ya so ko ɗaya daga cikin ƙananan nan yă ɓace.
So it is not good before your Father who is in heaven, that one 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.
NOW if thy brother offend against thee, go, and argue (the matter) between thyself and him alone; and if he hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother.
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 hear thee not, take with thee one or two, that upon the mouth of two or three witnesses may be established every word.
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.
And if, also, he will not hear them, tell the church; but if he will neither hear the church, let him be to thee as a publican and as a heathen.
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.
And, Amen I say unto you, that whatsoever you shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven; and whatsoever you shall loose on earth shall 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 say to you, that if two of you shall consent on earth concerning every thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them by my Father who is 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 are assembled in my name, there am I in the midst of 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 Kipha came near to him, and said to him, My Lord, how many times, if my brother offend me, shall I forgive him; until seven times?
22 Yesu amsa ya ce, “Ina gaya maka, ba sau bakwai ba, amma sau saba’in da bakwai.
Jeshu said to him, I say not to thee, Until seven, but, Until seventy times seven and seven.
23 “Saboda haka, mulkin sama yana kama da wani sarki wanda ya so yă yi ƙididdigar dukiyarsa da take a hannun bayinsa.
THEREFORE is the kingdom of the heavens likened to a royal person who would take the account from his servants.
24 Da ya fara ƙididdigar, sai aka kawo masa wani wanda yake bin bashin talenti dubu goma.
And when he began to receive, they brought to him one who owed a myriad 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.
And when he had nothing to pay, his lord commanded that they should sell (both) himself, his wife, and his children, and all that he had, and to pay.
26 “Bawan ya durƙusa a gabansa. Ya yi roƙo ya ce, ‘Ka yi mini haƙuri, zan biya ka ƙaf.’
And that servant fell and worshipped him, saying, My lord, be patient of spirit toward me, and all things I (will) pay thee.
27 Maigidan bawan ya ji tausayinsa, ya yafe masa bashin, ya kuma sake shi.
And the lord of that servant had mercy, and absolved him, and forgave him his debt.
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!’
Then went forth that servant, and found one of his fellows who owed him a hundred pence; and he seized him, strangling, and saying to him, Give me what thou owest to me.
29 “Wannan abokin bautarsa ya durƙusa ya roƙe shi, ‘Ka yi mini haƙuri, zan biya ka.’
His fellow-servant fell at his feet, beseeching him, and saying, Be patient of spirit towards me, and I (will) pay thee.
30 “Amma ya ƙi. A maimako, sai ya je ya sa aka jefa shi a kurkuku, har yă biya bashin.
But he would not, but went and threw him into the house of the chained until he should have rendered him what he owed him.
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 their fellow-servants saw what was done, they were greatly grieved, and went and declared to their lord all that was done.
32 “Sai maigidan ya kira wannan bawa. Ya ce, ‘Kai mugun bawa, na yafe duk bashin da nake binka domin ka roƙe ni.
Then his lord summoned him and said to him, Evil servant! all that debt did I forgive thee, because thou didst entreat me.
33 Ashe, bai kamata kai ma ka ji tausayin abokin bautarka yadda na yi maka ba?’
Oughtest thou not to have been as gracious to thy fellow-servant as I was gracious unto thee?
34 Cikin fushi, maigidan ya miƙa shi ga ma’aikatan kurkuku su gwada masa azaba, har yă biya dukan bashin da ake binsa.
And his lord was indignant, and delivered him to the tormentors, until he should have paid all whatsoever he owed to him.
35 “Haka Ubana da yake cikin sama zai yi da kowannenku, in ba ku yafe wa’yan’uwanku daga zuciyarku ba.”
Thus will your heavenly Father deal with you unless you forgive each his brother from your heart his trespasses.
