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 same time the disciples came to Jesus and said, “Who is greatest in the kingdom of heaven?”
2 Sai ya kira ƙaramin yaro ya sa shi yă tsaya a tsakiyarsu.
Jesus called to himself a little child, set him 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.
and said, “Truly I say to you, unless you turn and become like little children, you will in no way 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.
Whoever welcomes a little child like this in my name receives 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 whoever causes one of these little ones who believes in me to sin, it would be better for him that a great millstone should be hung about his neck, and that he should be sunk 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 because of stumbling blocks! For it is necessary that those stumbling blocks come, but woe to the person through whom those stumbling blocks 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 stumble, cut it off and throw it away from you. It is better for you to enter into life maimed or lame than to be thrown into the eternal fire having two hands or two feet. (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)
If your eye causes you to stumble, pluck it out and throw it away from you. It is better for you to enter into life with one eye than to be thrown into the eternal fire having both eyes. (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 despise any of these little ones. For I say to you that in heaven their angels always look on the face of my Father who is 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 anyone has a hundred sheep, and one of them goes astray, does he not leave the ninety-nine on the hillside and go off seeking the one that went astray?
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.
If he finds it, truly I say to you, he rejoices over it more 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, it is not the will of your Father 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.
If your brother sins against you, go and tell him his fault, between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you will have gained your 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 does not listen to you, take one or two others along with you, so that by the mouth of two or three witnesses every word might be verified.
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 he refuses to listen to them, tell the matter to the church. If he also refuses to listen to the church, let him be to you as a Gentile and 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 say to you, whatever things you bind on earth will be bound in heaven; and whatever you release on earth will be released 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, if two of you agree on earth about anything they ask, it will 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 gathered together in my name, there I am in their midst.”
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 and said to Jesus, “Lord, how often will my brother sin against me and I forgive him? Until seven times?”
22 Yesu amsa ya ce, “Ina gaya maka, ba sau bakwai ba, amma sau saba’in da bakwai.
Jesus said to him, “I do not tell you seven times, but until seventy times seven.
23 “Saboda haka, mulkin sama yana kama da wani sarki wanda ya so yă yi ƙididdigar dukiyarsa da take a hannun bayinsa.
Therefore the kingdom of heaven is similar to a certain 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 settling, one servant was brought to him who owed him 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.
But since he had not the means to repay, his master commanded him to be sold, together with his wife and children and everything that he had, and payment to be made.
26 “Bawan ya durƙusa a gabansa. Ya yi roƙo ya ce, ‘Ka yi mini haƙuri, zan biya ka ƙaf.’
So the servant fell down, bowed down before him, and said, 'Master, have patience with me, and I will pay you everything.'
27 Maigidan bawan ya ji tausayinsa, ya yafe masa bashin, ya kuma sake shi.
So the master of that servant, since he was moved with compassion, released him and forgave him the 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!’
But that servant went out and found one of his fellow servants, who owed him one hundred denarii. He grasped him, took him by the throat, and said, 'Pay me what you owe.'
29 “Wannan abokin bautarsa ya durƙusa ya roƙe shi, ‘Ka yi mini haƙuri, zan biya ka.’
But his fellow servant fell down and implored him, saying, 'Have patience with me, and I will repay you.'
30 “Amma ya ƙi. A maimako, sai ya je ya sa aka jefa shi a kurkuku, har yă biya bashin.
But the first servant refused. Instead, he went and threw him into prison until he should pay him what he owed.
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 very upset. They came and told their master everything that had happened.
32 “Sai maigidan ya kira wannan bawa. Ya ce, ‘Kai mugun bawa, na yafe duk bashin da nake binka domin ka roƙe ni.
Then that servant's master called him, and said to him, 'You wicked servant, I forgave you all that debt because you implored me.
33 Ashe, bai kamata kai ma ka ji tausayin abokin bautarka yadda na yi maka ba?’
Should you not have had mercy on your fellow servant, even as I had mercy 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.
His master was angry and handed him over to the torturers until he would pay all that was owed.
35 “Haka Ubana da yake cikin sama zai yi da kowannenku, in ba ku yafe wa’yan’uwanku daga zuciyarku ba.”
So also my heavenly Father will do to you, if you do not forgive your brother from your heart.”
