< Ru’uya ta Yohanna 21 >
1 Sa’an nan na ga sabon sama da sabuwar duniya, gama sama na farko da duniya ta farko sun shuɗe, babu kuma wani teku.
Then [in the vision] I saw a new heaven and a new earth. The first heaven and the first earth had disappeared, and the oceans no longer existed.
2 Na ga Birni Mai Tsarki, sabuwar Urushalima tana saukowa daga sama, daga Allah, a shirye kamar amaryar da aka yi mata ado mai kyau saboda mijinta.
I saw [God’s] holy city, which is the new [city of] Jerusalem. It was coming down out of heaven from God. [The city] had been prepared [and decorated] {[God] had prepared [and decorated the city]} as [SIM] a bride is decorated {decorates herself} [beautifully in order to marry] her husband.
3 Na kuma ji wata babbar murya daga kursiyin tana cewa, “Yanzu mazaunin Allah yana tare da mutane, zai kuma zauna tare da su. Za su zama mutanensa, Allah kansa kuwa zai kasance tare da su yă kuma zama Allahnsu.
I heard a loud voice that spoke from the throne [of God]. It said, “Listen to this! Now God will live with people. He will live [right in the midst of] them [DOU]! They will be his people. God himself will be with them, and he will be their God.
4 Zai share dukan hawaye daga idanunsu. Ba sauran mutuwa ko makoki ko kuka ko azaba, gama tsofaffin al’amura sun shuɗe.”
[As a result], he will [cause them to no longer be sad. It will be as though he will] [MTY] wipe every tear from their eyes. [None of them] will ever again die or mourn or cry [DOU] or suffer pain, because the former things [that make us sad] will have disappeared.”
5 Wannan da yake zaune a kursiyin ya ce. “Ina yin kome sabo!” Sai ya ce, “Rubuta wannan, domin waɗannan kalmomi amintattu ne gaskiya ne kuma.”
Then [God], who sits on the throne, said, “Listen to this! I am [now] making everything new!” He said [to me]: “Write these things [that I have told you], because you can trust [that I will certainly cause them to happen].”
6 Ya ce mini, “An gama. Ni ne Alfa da kuma Omega, na Farko da kuma na Ƙarshe. Duk mai jin ƙishirwa zan ba shi abin sha kyauta daga maɓulɓular ruwan rai.
He said to me, “I have finished [doing all the things I needed to do]. I am the one who began all things [MET] and the one who will cause all things to end [MET]. To everyone who is [spiritually] thirsty [MET], I will (freely give/give as a free gift) water from the spring [that causes people] to live [forever].
7 Duk wanda ya ci nasara zai gāji dukan wannan, zan kuma zama Allahnsa, shi kuma zai zama ɗana.
I will give this to every person who is victorious over [the evil powers] (OR, [over Satan]). I will be their God, and they will be my children.
8 Amma matsorata, da marasa bangaskiya, masu ƙazanta, masu kisankai, masu fasikanci, masu sihiri, masu bautar gumaka da dukan maƙaryata, wurinsu zai kasance a cikin tafkin wutar da yake farar wuta mai ci. Wannan fa ita ce mutuwa ta biyu.” (Limnē Pyr )
But those who are cowardly, those who do not believe [in me], those [who do] detestable things, those who are murderers, those who sin sexually, those who commit sorcery, those who worship idols, and every liar, will [all suffer] in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur. [Anyone who suffers in that lake] will be dying the second time.” (Limnē Pyr )
9 Ɗaya daga cikin mala’ikun nan bakwai masu kwanonin nan bakwai cike da annoban nan bakwai na ƙarshe, ya zo ya ce mini “Zo, zan nuna maka amaryar, matar Ɗan Ragon.”
One of the seven angels who had one of the seven bowls that had been full of [the wine/liquid causing] [MTY] the seven last plagues came and said to me, “Come [with me] and I will show you [the people who have permanently united with Christ, the one who is like a] lamb! They will be [like] [MET] a bride [for him].”
10 Ya kuwa ɗauke ni cikin Ruhu zuwa wani babban dutse mai tsayi, ya kuma nuna mini Birni Mai Tsarki, Urushalima, tana saukowa daga sama, daga Allah.
Then, while [God’s] Spirit [controlled me], the angel took/carried me to the top of a very high mountain. He showed me [God’s] holy city, [the New] Jerusalem. It was coming down out of heaven from God.
11 Ya haskaka da ɗaukakar Allah, haskensa kuwa ya yi kamar lu’ulu’u mai daraja sosai, kamar yasfa, yana ƙyalƙyali kamar madubi.
It was shining with his glory. The city was shining like a very precious jasper stone [shines, and] it was clear like crystal.
12 Yana da babbar katanga mai tsayi, mai ƙofofi goma sha biyu, da kuma mala’iku goma sha biyu a ƙofofin. A bisa ƙofofin an rubuta sunayen kabilu goma sha biyu na Isra’ila.
[Around the city] was a very high wall. The wall had twelve gates. An angel was at each gate. The names of the twelve tribes of Israel were written {[God] had written the names of the twelve tribes of Israel} over the gates. [Each gate had the name of one tribe].
13 Akwai ƙofofi uku a gabas, uku a arewa, uku a kudu, uku kuma a yamma.
Three gates were on the east [side], three gates were on the north [side], three gates were on the south [side], and three gates were on the west [side].
14 An gina katangar birnin a kan tushen gini goma sha biyu, a kansu kuwa akwai sunayen manzannin sha biyu na Ɗan Ragon.
The wall of the city had twelve foundation [stones]. On each foundation [stone was] the name of one of the twelve apostles of [Jesus, the one who is like a] lamb.
15 Mala’ikan da ya yi magana da ni yana da sandan awo na zinariya don awon birnin, ƙofofinsa, da kuma katangarsa.
The angel who was speaking to me carried a golden measuring rod, in order to measure the city, its gates, and its wall.
16 Birnin murabba’i ne, tsayinsa daidai ne da fāɗinsa. Ya auna birnin da sandarsa ya kuwa sami mil 1,400 (wajen kilomita 2,200) tsawonsa, fāɗinsa da kuma tsayinsa daidai suke.
The city was square [in shape]; it was as long as it was wide. After the angel measured the city with his rod, [he reported that it was] (1,500 miles/2,400 kilometers) long, and that its height was the same as [its length and width].
17 Ya auna katangarsa ya kuma sami ƙaurinta kamun 144, bisa ga ma’aunin mutum, wanda mala’ikan ya yi amfani da shi.
He measured its wall [and reported that it was] ([216 ft./70 meters]) [thick] (OR, [high]). The angel used the measure that people [normally use].
18 An yi katangar da yasfa, birnin kuma da zinariya zalla, yana kuma ƙyalli kamar madubi.
The [city] wall was made of [something like the green stone that we call] jasper. The city [itself] was [made of something like] pure gold [that looked] like clear glass.
19 Tushen ginin katangar birnin kuwa an yi masa adon da kowane irin dutse mai daraja. Tushe na farko an yi shi yasfa, na biyu saffaya, na uku agat, na huɗu zumurrudu,
The foundations of the wall of the city were beautifully made with [wonderful stones that are like] precious stones [on earth]. The first foundation [stone was a crystalline stone like] jasper, the second [foundation stone was a blue stone like] sapphire, the third [foundation stone was a green stone like] agate, the fourth [foundation stone was a green stone like] emerald,
20 na biyar onis, na shida yakutu, na bakwai kirisolit, na takwas beril, na tara tofaz, na goma kirisofuras, na goma sha ɗaya yasin, na goma sha biyu kuma ametis.
the fifth [foundation stone was a brown and white layered stone like] sardonyx, the sixth [foundation stone was a red stone like] carnelian, the seventh [foundation stone was a yellow stone like] chrysolite, the eighth [foundation stone was a green stone like] beryl, the ninth [foundation stone was a yellow stone like] topaz, the tenth [foundation stone was a green stone like] chrysoprase, the eleventh [foundation stone was a blue stone like] hyacinth, and the twelfth [foundation stone was a purple stone like] amethyst.
21 Ƙofofi goma sha biyun nan lu’ulu’ai goma sha biyu ne, kowace ƙofa an yi ta da lu’ulu’u guda. Babban titin birnin kuwa an yi shi da zinariya zalla, yana kuma ƙyalli kamar madubi.
The twelve gates [of the city] were [something like huge] pearls. Each gate was like [it was] a single pearl. The [ground of] the main plaza of the city (OR, The streets of the city) [appeared to be] pure gold [that looked] like clear glass.
22 Ban ga haikali a cikin birnin ba, domin Ubangiji Allah Maɗaukaki da kuma Ɗan Ragon ne haikalin birnin.
There was no temple in the city. The Lord God Almighty [himself], and the [one who is like a] lamb, are [there, so there was no need for] [MET] a temple.
23 Birnin ba ya bukatar rana ko wata su haskaka shi, gama ɗaukakar Allah tana ba shi haske, Ɗan Ragon kuwa shi ne fitilar birnin.
The city will not need the sun or the moon to light the city, because the glory of God will illuminate the city, and [Jesus, the one who is like a] lamb, will also be its light.
24 Al’ummai za su yi tafiya cikin hasken birnin, sarakunan duniya kuma za su kawo darajarsu cikin birnin.
The people of [MTY] the nations will live with the light of the city [shining upon them]. And the kings of the earth will bring their wealth into the city [to honor God and the one who is like a lamb].
25 Ba za a taɓa rufe ƙofofin birnin da rana ba, gama ba za a yi dare a can ba.
The gates of the city will not be shut {No one will shut the gates of the city} [at the end of each day as they usually are shut], because there will be no night there.
26 Za a kawo ɗaukaka da girmar al’ummai a cikin birnin.
The [people of the] world will also bring their wealth into the city to honor [God and the one who is like a lamb].
27 Babu wani abu marar tsarkin da zai taɓa shiga cikin birnin, babu kuma wani mai aikata abin kunya ko ruɗi da zai shiga, sai dai waɗanda aka rubuta sunayensu a cikin littafin rai na Ɗan Ragon.
No one who is morally impure, no one who does things [that God considers] detestable, and no one who tells lies, will ever enter that city. Only those people whose names are written in the book of the [one who is like a] lamb {whose [names] the [one who is like a] lamb has written in his book}, [the names] of people who have [eternal] life, will be there.
