< Mattiyu 6 >

1 “Ku yi hankali kada ku nuna ‘ayyukanku na adalci’ a gaban mutane, don su gani. In kuka yi haka, ba za ku sami lada daga wurin Ubanku da yake cikin sama ba.
Be cautious in your alms-giving, not to perform it before men, so that ye may be seen of them: otherwise, ye have no reward from your Father who is in heaven.
2 “Saboda haka sa’ad da kake ba wa masu bukata taimako, kada ka yi shelarsa, yadda munafukai suke yi a majami’u da kuma kan tituna, don mutane su yabe su. Gaskiya nake gaya muku, sun riga sun sami ladarsu cikakke.
Therefore, when thou doest alms thou shalt not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may get praise from men. Verily I say to you, They have gotten their reward.
3 Amma sa’ad da kake ba wa masu bukata taimako, kada ka yarda hannun hagunka yă ma san abin da hannun damarka yake yi,
But thou, when doing alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doeth:
4 don bayarwarka ta zama a ɓoye. Ubanka kuwa mai ganin abin da ake yi a ɓoye, zai sāka maka.
that thy alms may be in secret. And thy Father, who seeth in secret, will reward thee openly.
5 “Sa’ad da kuma kuke addu’a, kada ku zama kamar munafukai, gama sun cika son yin addu’a a tsaye a cikin majami’u da kuma a bakin titi, don mutane su gan su. Gaskiya nake gaya muku, sun riga sun sami ladarsu cikakke.
And when thou prayest. thou shalt not be like the hypocrites, who are fond of standing up in the synagogues and at the corners of streets to pray, so that they may be seen by people. Verily I say to you, they have gotten their reward.
6 Amma sa’ad da kake addu’a, sai ka shiga ɗakinka, ka rufe ƙofa, ka yi addu’a ga Ubanka wanda ba a gani. Ubanka kuwa mai ganin abin da ake yi a ɓoye, zai sāka maka.
But thou, when thou prayest enter into thy closet and close the door, and pray to thy Father who is in secret; and thy Father, who seeth in secret, will reward thee openly.
7 Sa’ad da kuma kuke addu’a, kada ku yi ta maimaita magana, kamar marasa sanin Allah, domin suna tsammani za a ji su saboda yawan maganarsu.
And when ye pray, be not garrulous like the heathen; for they expect to be heard for their abundance of words.
8 Kada ku zama kamar su, gama Ubanku ya san abin da kuke bukata kafin ma ku roƙe shi.
Therefore, be not like them; for your Father knoweth what is needful for you, before ye ask him.
9 “To, ga yadda ya kamata ku yi addu’a. “‘Ubanmu wanda yake cikin sama, a tsarkake sunanka,
In this manner, therefore, pray ye: Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name:
10 mulkinka yă zo a aikata nufinka a duniya kamar yadda ake yi a sama.
Thy kingdom come: Thy will be done; as in heaven, so on earth:
11 Ka ba mu yau abincin yininmu.
Give us our needful bread, this day:
12 Ka gafarta mana laifofinmu, kamar yadda mu ma muke gafarta wa masu yin mana laifi.
And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors:
13 Kada ka bari a kai mu cikin jarraba, amma ka cece mu daga mugun nan.’
And bring us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever and ever: Amen.
14 Gama in kuna yafe wa mutane sa’ad da suka yi muku laifi, Ubanku da yake cikin sama ma zai gafarta muku.
For if ye forgive men their faults, your Father who is in heaven will also forgive you.
15 Amma in ba kwa yafe wa mutane laifofinsu, Ubanku ma ba zai gafarta muku zunubanku ba.
But if ye shall not forgive men, your Father also forgiveth not you your faults.
16 “Sa’ad da kuma kuna azumi, kada ku ɓata fuska, yadda munafukai suke yi. Sukan ɓata fuskokinsu domin su nuna wa mutane cewa suna azumi. Gaskiya nake gaya muku, sun riga sun sami ladarsu cikakke.
And when ye fast, be not sad like the hypocrites. For they distort their faces, that they may be seen of men to fast. Verily I say to you, they have gotten their reward.
17 Amma sa’ad da kana azumi, ka shafa wa kanka mai, ka wanke fuskarka,
But, when thou fastest, wash thou thy face, and anoint thy head:
18 domin kada mutane su ga alama cewa kana azumi, sai dai Ubanka kaɗai wanda ba a gani; Ubanka kuwa mai ganin abin da ake yi a ɓoye, zai sāka maka.
that thou mayest not be seen by men as a faster, but by thy Father who is in secret: and thy Father who seeth in secret, will recompense thee.
19 “Kada ku yi wa kanku ajiyar dukiya a duniya, inda asu da tsatsa suke ɓatawa, inda kuma ɓarayi sukan fasa, su yi sata.
Lay not up for yourselves treasures on the earth, where moth and rust spoil, and where thieves dig through and steal.
20 Amma ku yi wa kanku ajiyar dukiya a sama, inda ba tsatsa da asu da za su ɓata su, inda kuma ba ɓarayin da za su fasa, su yi sata.
But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where no moth and no rust can spoil, and no thieves dig through nor steal.
21 Gama inda dukiyarka take, a nan ne fa zuciyarka za tă kasance.
For where your treasure is, there will your heart also be.
22 “Ido shi ne fitilar jiki. In idanunka suna da kyau, dukan jikinka zai cika da haske.
The lamp of the body is the eye. If therefore thy eye shall be sound, thy whole body will be luminous.
23 Amma in idanunka suna da lahani, dukan jikinka ma zai cika da duhu. To, in hasken da yake a cikinka duhu ne, duhun ya wuce misali ke nan!
But if thy eye shall be diseased, thy whole body will be dark. If then the light that is in thee be darkness, how great will be thy darkness!
24 “Ba mai iya bauta wa iyayengiji biyu. Ko dai yă ƙi ɗaya, yă ƙaunaci ɗaya, ko kuwa yă yi aminci ga ɗaya, sa’an nan yă rena ɗayan. Ba dama ku bauta wa Allah, ku kuma bauta wa kuɗi gaba ɗaya.”
No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will honor the one and neglect the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
25 “Saboda haka, ina gaya muku, kada ku damu game da rayuwarku, game da abin da za ku ci, ko abin da za ku sha; ko kuma game da jikinku, game da abin da za ku sa. Ashe, rai bai fi abinci ba, jiki kuma bai fi tufafi ba?
Therefore I say to you: Be not anxious about your life, what ye shall eat, and what ye shall drink; nor about your body, how ye shall clothe yourselves. Is not the life more important than food, and the body than raiment?
26 Ku dubi tsuntsayen sararin sama mana; ba sa shuki ko girbi ko ajiya a rumbuna, duk da haka, Ubanku na sama yana ciyar da su. Ashe, ba ku fi su daraja nesa ba?
Look at the birds of heaven; which sow not, and reap not, and gather not into storehouses, but your Father who is in heaven feedeth them. Are not ye more important than they?
27 Wane ne a cikinku ta wurin damuwa zai iya ƙara wa rayuwarsa ko sa’a ɗaya?
And who of you that shall be anxious, can add to his stature a cubit?
28 “Me ya sa kuke damuwa a kan riguna? Ku dubi yadda furannin jeji suke girma mana. Ba sa aiki ko saƙa.
And about raiment, why are ye anxious? Consider the lilies of the desert, in what manner they grow. They toil not; and they spin not.
29 Duk da haka ina gaya muku ko Solomon cikin dukan darajarsa bai sa kayan adon da ya kai na ko ɗaya a cikinsu ba.
Yet I say to you, that not even Solomon in all his glory, was arrayed like one of them.
30 In haka Allah yake yi wa ciyawar jeji sutura, wadda yau tana nan, gobe kuwa a jefa a cikin wuta, ba zai ma fi yi muku sutura ba, ya ku masu ƙarancin bangaskiya?
And if God so clothe the grass of the field, which exists to-day, and tomorrow falls into the oven, will he not much more clothe you, ye small in faith?
31 Don haka, kada ku damu, kuna cewa, ‘Me za mu ci?’ Ko, ‘Me za mu sha?’ Ko kuma, ‘Me za mu sa?’
Therefore be not anxious; nor say, What shall we eat, or what shall we drink; or wherewith be clothed?
32 Gama marasa sanin Allah suna fama neman dukan waɗannan abubuwa, Ubanku na sama kuwa ya san kuna bukatarsu.
For, all these things the people of the world seek after. And your Father, who is in heaven, knoweth that all these things are needful to you.
33 Da farko dai, ku nemi mulkin Allah da kuma adalcinsa, za a kuwa ba ku dukan waɗannan abubuwa.
But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness: and all these things shall be added to you.
34 Saboda haka kada ku damu game da gobe, gama gobe zai damu da kansa. Damuwar yau ma ta isa wahala.
Therefore be not anxious about the morrow: for the morrow hath its own anxieties. Sufficient for the day, is its own evil.
