Filibbiyawa 3
1 A ƙarshe,’yan’uwana, ku yi farin ciki a cikin Ubangiji! Ba abin damuwa ba ne a gare ni in sāke rubuta muku irin waɗannan abubuwa, domin lafiyarku ne.
For the rest, my brethren, rejoice in [the] Lord: to write the same things to you, to me [is] not irksome, and for you safe.
2 Ku yi hankali da waɗancan karnuka, waɗancan mutane masu aikata mugunta, waɗancan masu yankan jiki.
See to dogs, see to evil workmen, see to the concision.
3 Gama mu ne masu kaciya, mu da muke yi sujada ta wurin Ruhun Allah, mu da muke taƙama a cikin Kiristi Yesu, mu da ba mu dogara da ayyukan da ake gani ba,
For we are the circumcision, who worship by [the] Spirit of God, and boast in Christ Jesus, and do not trust in flesh.
4 ko da yake ni kaina ina da dalilan dogara da haka. In kuwa akwai wani wanda yake tsammani yana da dalilan dogara ga jiki, ni fa na fi shi,
Though I have [my] trust even in flesh; if any other think to trust in flesh, I rather:
5 an yi mini kaciya a rana ta takwas, asalina Isra’ila ne, na kabilar Benyamin, mutumin Ibraniyawa ɗan Ibraniyawa; bisa ga doka kuwa ni Bafarisiye ne;
as to circumcision, [I received it] the eighth day; of [the] race of Israel, of [the] tribe of Benjamin, Hebrew of Hebrews; as to [the] law, a Pharisee;
6 wajen himma kuwa, ni mai tsananta wa ikkilisiya ne, wajen aikin adalci bisa ga hanyar doka, ni marar laifi ne.
as to zeal, persecuting the assembly; as to righteousness which [is] in [the] law, found blameless;
7 Amma abin da dā ya zama mini riba yanzu, na ɗauka hasara ce saboda Kiristi.
but what things were gain to me these I counted, on account of Christ, loss.
8 Me kuma ya fi, na ɗauki dukan abubuwa hasara ne in aka kwatanta da mafificiyar girman sanin Kiristi Yesu Ubangijina, wanda saboda shi ne na yi hasarar kome. Na mai da su kayan wofi, domin in sami Kiristi
But surely I count also all things to be loss on account of the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, on account of whom I have suffered the loss of all, and count them to be filth, that I may gain Christ;
9 a kuma same ni a cikinsa, ba da wani adalcin kaina wanda yake zuwa daga bin doka ba, sai dai adalcin da yake samuwa ta wurin bangaskiya a cikin Kiristi, adalcin da yake fitowa daga Allah da kuma yake zuwa ta wurin bangaskiya.
and that I may be found in him, not having my righteousness, which [would be] on the principle of law, but that which is by faith of Christ, the righteousness which [is] of God through faith,
10 Ina so in san Kiristi da ikon tashinsa daga matattu da kuma zumuncin tarayya cikin shan wahalarsa, in kuma zama kamar sa a cikin mutuwarsa,
to know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being conformed to his death,
11 yadda kuma ko ta yaya, in kai ga tashin nan daga matattu.
if any way I arrive at the resurrection from among [the] dead.
12 Ba cewa na riga na sami dukan wannan ba ne, ko kuma an riga an mai da ni cikakke ba, sai dai ina nacewa don in kai ga samun abin da Kiristi Yesu ya riƙe ni saboda shi.
Not that I have already obtained [the prize], or am already perfected; but I pursue, if also I may get possession [of it], seeing that also I have been taken possession of by Christ [Jesus].
13 ’Yan’uwa, ban ɗauki kaina a kan cewa na riga na sami abin ba. Sai dai abu guda nake yi. Ina mantawa da abin da yake baya, ina kuma nacewa zuwa ga samun abin da yake gaba,
Brethren, I do not count to have got possession myself; but one thing — forgetting the things behind, and stretching out to the things before,
14 ina nacewa gaba zuwa ga manufar, don in sami ladar da Allah ya yi mini na kiran nan zuwa sama a cikin Kiristi Yesu.
I pursue, [looking] towards [the] goal, for the prize of the calling on high of God in Christ Jesus.
15 Dukanmu da muka balaga ya kamata mu yi wannan irin ganin abubuwa. In kuwa saboda wani dalili tunaninku ya yi dabam, Allah zai bayyana muku wannan ma.
As many therefore as [are] perfect, let us be thus minded; and if ye are any otherwise minded, this also God shall reveal to you.
16 Sai dai a duk inda muka kai, mu ci gaba da haka.
But whereto we have attained, [let us] walk in the same steps.
17 Ku haɗa kai da waɗansu cikin bin gurbina, ku kuma lura da waɗanda suke rayuwa bisa ga ƙa’idar da muka ba ku.
Be imitators [all] together of me, brethren, and fix your eyes on those walking thus as you have us for a model;
18 Gama kamar yadda na sha gaya muku yanzu kuma ina sāke gaya muku har ma da hawaye, waɗansu da yawa suna rayuwa kamar abokan gāban gicciyen Kiristi.
(for many walk of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they [are] the enemies of the cross of Christ:
19 Ƙaddararsu hallaka ce, allahnsu cikinsu ne, rashin kunyarsu shi ne abin fahariyarsu. Hankalinsu yana kan kayan duniya.
whose end [is] destruction, whose god [is] the belly, and [their] glory in their shame, who mind earthly things: )
20 Amma mu’yan mulkin sama ne. Muna kuma jira zuwan Mai Ceto daga can, Ubangiji Yesu Kiristi,
for our commonwealth has its existence in [the] heavens, from which also we await the Lord Jesus Christ [as] Saviour,
21 shi ne mai ikon kawo dukan abubuwa ƙarƙashin mulkinsa. Ta wurin ikon nan nasa zai sāke jikin nan namu na ƙasƙanci, yă mai da shi kamar jikin nan nasa na ɗaukaka.
who shall transform our body of humiliation into conformity to his body of glory, according to the working of [the] power which he has even to subdue all things to himself.
