Mattiyu 23
1 Sa’an nan Yesu ya ce wa taron mutane da kuma almajiransa,
Then Jesus spoke to the multitude, and to his disciples,
2 “Malaman dokoki da Farisiyawa suke zama a kujerar Musa.
Saying, The scribes and the Pharisees sit in the seat of Moses:
3 Saboda haka dole ku yi musu biyayya, ku kuma yi duk abin da suka faɗa muku. Sai dai kada ku yi abin da suke yi, gama ba sa yin abin da suke wa’azi.
All therefore whatever they bid you observe, that observe and do; but do not ye according to their works: for they say, and do not.
4 Sukan ɗaura kaya masu nauyi, su sa wa mutane a kafaɗa. Amma su kansu, ba sa ko sa yatsa su taimaka.
For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay them on men’s shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers.
5 “Kome suke yi, suna yi ne don mutane su gani. Sukan yi layunsufantam-fantam bakin rigunarsu kuma sukan kai har ƙasa;
But all their works they do to be seen by men: they make broad their phylacteries, and enlarge the borders of their garments,
6 suna son wurin zaman manya a wurin biki, da kuma wuraren zama gaba-gaba a majami’u;
And love the uppermost places at feasts, and the best seats in the synagogues,
7 suna so a yi ta gaisuwarsu a kasuwa, ana kuma riƙa ce musu, ‘Rabbi.’
And greetings in the markets, and to be called by men, Rabbi, Rabbi.
8 “Amma kada a kira ku ‘Rabbi,’ gama kuna da Maigida ɗaya ne, ku duka kuwa,’yan’uwa ne.
But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren.
9 Kada kuma ku kira wani a duniya ‘uba,’ gama kuna da Uba ɗaya ne, yana kuwa a sama.
And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, who is in heaven.
10 Ba kuwa za a kira ku ‘malam’ ba, gama kuna da Malami ɗaya ne, Kiristi.
Neither be ye called masters: for one is your Master, even Christ.
11 Mafi girma a cikinku, zai zama bawanku.
But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant.
12 Gama duk wanda ya ɗaukaka kansa, za a ƙasƙantar da shi, duk kuma wanda ya ƙasƙantar da kansa, za a ɗaukaka shi.
And whoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted.
13 “Kaitonku, malaman dokoki da Farisiyawa, ku munafukai! Kun rufe ƙofar mulkin sama a gaban mutane. Ku kanku ba ku shiga ba, ba kuwa bar waɗanda suke ƙoƙarin shiga su shiga ba.
But woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither allow ye them that are entering to go in.
Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye devour widows’ houses, and for a pretence make long prayer: therefore ye shall receive the greater damnation.
15 “Kaitonku, malaman dokoki da Farisiyawa, munafukai! Kukan yi tafiye-tafiye zuwa ƙasashe, ku ƙetare teku don ku sami mai tuba ɗaya, sa’ad da ya tuba kuwa, sai ku mai da shi ɗan wuta fiye da ku, har sau biyu. (Geenna g1067)
Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye travel sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves. (Geenna g1067)
16 “Kaitonku, makafi jagora! Kukan ce, ‘In wani ya rantse da haikali, ba damuwa; amma in ya rantse da zinariyar haikali, sai rantsuwar ta kama shi.’
Woe to you, ye blind guides, who say, Whoever shall swear by the temple, it is nothing; but whoever shall swear by the gold of the temple, he is a debtor!
17 Wawaye makafi! Wanne ya fi girma, zinariyar, ko haikalin da yake tsarkake zinariyar?
Ye fools and blind: for which is greater, the gold, or the temple that sanctifieth the gold?
18 Kukan kuma ce, ‘In wani ya rantse da bagade, ba damuwa; amma in ya rantse da bayarwar da take bisansa, sai rantsuwar ta kama shi.’
And, Whoever shall swear by the altar, it is nothing; but whoever sweareth by the gift that is upon it, he is bound.
19 Makafi kawai! Wanne ya fi girma, bayarwar, ko kuwa bagaden da yake tsarkake bayarwar?
Ye fools and blind: for which is greater, the gift, or the altar that sanctifieth the gift?
20 Saboda haka, duk wanda ya rantse da bagade, ya rantse ne da bagaden tare da abin da yake bisansa.
Whoever therefore shall swear by the altar, sweareth by it, and by all things on it.
21 Kuma duk wanda ya rantse da haikali, ya rantse ne da shi da kuma wanda yake zaune a cikinsa.
And whoever shall swear by the temple, sweareth by it, and by him that dwelleth in it.
22 Duk kuma wanda ya rantse da sama, ya rantse ne da kursiyin Allah da kuma wanda yake zaune a kansa.
And he that shall swear by heaven, sweareth by the throne of God, and by him that sitteth upon it.
23 “Kaitonku, malaman dokoki da Farisiyawa, munafukai! Kukan ba da kashi ɗaya bisa goma na kayan yajinku, na’ana’a, anise, da lafsur. Amma kun ƙyale abubuwan da suka fi girma na dokoki, adalci, jinƙai da aminci. Waɗannan ne ya kamata da kun kiyaye ba tare da kun ƙyale sauran ba.
Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, justice, mercy, and faith: these ye ought to have done, and not to leave the others undone.
24 Makafi jagora! Kukan tace ƙwaro ɗan mitsil amma sai ku haɗiye raƙumi.
Ye blind guides, who strain out a gnat, and swallow a camel.
25 “Kaitonku, malaman dokoki da Farisiyawa, munafukai! Kukan wanke bayan kwaf da kwano, amma a ciki, cike suke da zalunci da sonkai.
Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion and excess.
26 Kai makaho Bafarisiye! Ka fara wanke cikin kwaf da kwano, sa’an nan bayan ma zai zama da tsabta.
Thou blind Pharisee, cleanse first that which is within the cup and platter, that the outside of them may be clean also.
27 “Kaitonku, malaman dokoki da Farisiyawa, munafukai! Kuna kama da kaburburan da aka shafa musu farin fenti, waɗanda suna da kyan gani a waje, amma a ciki, cike suke da ƙasusuwan matattu da kuma kowane irin abu mai ƙazanta.
Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like whitewashed sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men’s bones, and of all uncleanness.
28 Haka ku ma, a waje, a idon mutane, ku masu adalci ne, amma a ciki, cike kuke da munafunci da mugunta.
Thus ye also outwardly appear righteous to men, but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.
29 “Kaitonku, malaman dokoki da Farisiyawa, munafukai! Kukan gina kaburbura don annabawa, ku kuma yi wa kaburburan mutane masu adalci ado.
Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye build the tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous,
30 Kuna cewa, ‘Da mun kasance a zamanin kakanninmu, ai, da ba mu haɗa hannu da su muka karkashe annabawa ba.’
And say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets.
31 Ta haka kuna ba da shaida a kanku cewa ku zuriyar waɗanda suka karkashe annabawa ne.
Therefore ye are witnesses against yourselves, that ye are the children of them who killed the prophets.
32 To, sai ku ci gaba ku cikasa ayyukan da kakanninku suka fara!
Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers.
Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell? (Geenna g1067)
34 Saboda haka ina aika muku da annabawa, da masu hikima da malamai. Waɗansunsu za ku kashe ku kuma gicciye; waɗansu kuma za ku yi musu bulala a majami’unku kuna kuma binsu gari-gari.
Therefore, behold, I send to you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: and some of them ye shall kill and crucify; and some of them ye shall scourge in your synagogues, and persecute them from city to city:
35 Ta haka alhakin jinin masu adalcin da aka zubar a duniya, tun daga jinin Habila mai adalci, zuwa jinin Zakariya ɗan Berekiya, wanda kuka kashe tsakanin haikali da bagade zai koma kanku.
That upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel to the blood of Zachariah son of Barachias, whom ye slew between the temple and the altar.
36 Gaskiya nake gaya muku, duk wannan zai auko wa wannan zamani.
Verily I say to you, All these things shall come upon this generation.
37 “Urushalima, ayya Urushalima, ke da kike kashe annabawa, kike kuma jifan waɗanda aka aiko gare ki, sau da sau na so in tattara’ya’yanki wuri ɗaya, yadda kaza takan tattara’ya’yanta cikin fikafikanta, amma kuka ƙi.
O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them who are sent to thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!
38 Ga shi, an bar muku gidanku a yashe.
Behold, your house is left to you desolate.
39 Gama ina gaya muku, ba za ku sāke ganina ba sai kun ce, ‘Mai albarka ne wanda yake zuwa cikin sunan Ubangiji.’”
For I say to you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.
