Ayyukan Manzanni 25
1 Da Festas ya shiga lardin, kuma bayan kwana uku, ya tashi daga Kaisariya ya tafi Urushalima.
Festus therefore, having come into the province, after three days went up to Jerusalem from Caesarea.
2 Sai babban firist da manyan Yahudawa suka kawo wa Festas sara a kan Bulus.
Then the high priest and the principal men of the Jews informed him against Paul, and they urged him,
3 Suka roki tagomashi wurin Festas ya kira Bulus zuwa Urushalima domin su kashe shi a hanya.
asking a favor against him, that he would summon him to Jerusalem; plotting to kill him on the way.
4 Amma Festas ya amsa masu cewa, Bulus dan sarka ne a Kaisariya, kuma ba da dadewa ba shi da kansa zai koma can.
However Festus answered that Paul should be kept in custody at Caesarea, and that he himself was about to depart shortly.
5 “Saboda haka duk wadanda za su iya, su biyo mu. Idan akwai wani laifi game da mutumin, sai ku zarge shi.”
"Let them therefore," he said, "that are in power among you go down with me, and if there is anything wrong in the man, let them accuse him."
6 Bayan kwana takwas ko goma, sai ya gangara zuwa Kaisariya. Washegari ya zauna bisa kursiyin shari'a ya bada umarni a kawo Bulus a gabansa.
When he had stayed among them more than eight or ten days, he went down to Caesarea, and on the next day he sat on the judgment seat, and commanded Paul to be brought.
7 Da Bulus ya iso, Yahudawa daga Urushalima suka tsaya kusa, suka yi ta kawo kararraki, amma basu iya tabbatar da su ba.
When he had come, the Jews who had come down from Jerusalem stood around him, bringing against him many and grievous charges which they could not prove,
8 Bulus ya kare kansa ya ce, “Ban yi wa kowa laifi ba, ko Yahudawa, ko haikali, ko kuma Kaisar.”
while he said in his defense, "Neither against the law of the Jews, nor against the temple, nor against Caesar, have I sinned at all."
9 Amma Festas yana neman farin jini wajen Yahudawa, sabo da haka ya tambayi Bulus ya ce, “Kana so ka je Urushalima in shari'anta ka a can game da wadannan abubuwa?”
But Festus, desiring to gain favor with the Jews, answered Paul and said, "Are you willing to go up to Jerusalem, and be judged by me there concerning these things?"
10 Bulus ya ce, “Ina tsaye a Ddakalin Shari'ar Kaisar inda dole a shari'anta ni. Ban yi wa Yahudawa laifi ba, kamar yadda ka sani sosai.
But Paul said, "I am standing before Caesar's judgment seat, where I ought to be tried. I have done no wrong to the Jews, as you also know very well.
11 Idan lallai na yi laifi kuma na yi abin da ya chanchanci mutuwa, ban ki ba in mutu. Amma idan zarginsu karya ne, kada kowa ya bashe ni gare su. Ina daukaka kara zuwa ga Kaisar.”
For if I have done wrong, and have committed anything worthy of death, I do not refuse to die; but if none of those things is true that they accuse me of, no one can give me up to them. I appeal to Caesar."
12 Bayan Festas ya tattauna da majalisa ya amsa ya ce, “Kana kira ga Kaisar; za ka tafi wurin Kaisar.”
Then Festus, when he had conferred with the council, answered, "You have appealed to Caesar. To Caesar you will go."
13 Bayan wadansu kwanaki, sarki Agaribas da Barniki suka iso Kaisariya domin su ziyarci Festas.
Now when some days had passed, Agrippa the King and Bernice arrived at Caesarea, and greeted Festus.
14 Da ya kasance kwanaki da yawa, Festas ya fada wa sarki labarin Bulus ya ce, “Akwai wani mutum dan sarka da Filikus ya bari a kurkuku.
As they stayed there many days, Festus laid Paul's case before the king, saying, "There is a certain man left a prisoner by Felix;
15 Sa'anda nake a Urushalima, babban firist da dattawan Yahudawa suka kawo kararsa gare ni, suka roka a kashe shi.
about whom, when I was at Jerusalem, the chief priests and the Jewish elders informed me, asking for a sentence against him.
16 Game da wannan na amsa na ce masu, ba al'adar Romawa ba ce a ba da mutum tagomashi; sai wanda ake kararsa an bashi zarafi ya kare kansa a gaban masu kararsa, ya kuma bada hujjojinsa game da kararakin.
To whom I answered that it is not the custom of the Romans to give up anyone before the accused has met the accusers face to face, and has had opportunity to make his defense against the charge.
17 Saboda haka, da duk suka taru ban bata lokaci ba, washegari na zauna a kujerar shari'a, na ba da umarni a kawo mutumin.
When therefore they had come together here, I did not delay, but on the next day sat on the judgment seat, and commanded the man to be brought.
18 Da masu karar suka fadi kararsu, sai na fahimci karar ba wani muhimmin abu a cikinta.
Concerning whom, when the accusers stood up, they brought no charge of such things as I supposed;
19 Sai dai na ga cewa jayayya ce tsakanin su ta addini a kan wani Yesu da ya mutu, wanda Bulus ya ce yana da rai.
but had certain questions against him about their own religion, and about one Jesus, who was dead, whom Paul affirmed to be alive.
20 Na rasa yadda zan bincike wannan al'amarin, sai na tambaye shi ko zai je Urushalima a shari'anta shi kan wadannan abubuwa.
Being perplexed how to inquire concerning these things, I asked whether he was willing to go to Jerusalem and there be judged concerning these matters.
21 Amma da Bulus ya nemi a lura da shi, Kaisar ya shari'anta shi, sai na ba da umarni a ajiye shi har sai na aika shi wurin Kaisar.”
But when Paul had appealed to be kept for the decision of the emperor, I commanded him to be kept until I could send him to Caesar."
22 Agaribas yace wa Festas. “Zan so ni ma in saurari mutumin nan.” “Gobe za ka ji shi,” in ji Fostus.
Agrippa said to Festus, "I also would like to hear the man myself." "Tomorrow," he said, "you will hear him."
23 Washegari Agaribas da Barniki suka zo tare da kasaitaccen taro suka shiga dakin taro tare da hafsoshi da shugabanin gari. Da Festas ya ba da umarni, aka fito da Bulus wurinsu.
So on the next day, when Agrippa and Bernice had come with great pomp, and they had entered into the place of hearing with the commanding officers and principal men of the city, at the command of Festus, Paul was brought in.
24 Festas ya ce, “Sarki Agaribas da dukanku da kuke tare da mu a nan, kun ga mutumin nan, dukan Yahudawa sun gana da ni a Urushalima da nan kuma. Suna mani ihu cewa, bai chanchanta a bar shi da rai ba.
And Festus said, "King Agrippa, and all people who are here present with us, you see this man, about whom the whole assembly of the Jews petitioned me, both at Jerusalem and here, crying that he ought not to live any longer.
25 Na gane bai yi wani abin da ya chanchanci mutuwa ba; amma saboda ya daukaka kara zuwa Kaisar, na yanke shawara in aika shi.
But when I found that he had committed nothing worthy of death, and as he himself appealed to the emperor I determined to send him.
26 Amma ba ni da wani dalili na musamman da zan rubuta wasika ga Kaisar. Saboda wannan dalili na kawo shi gabanku, masamman kai ya sarki Agaribas. Domin in sami karin abin da zan rubuta game da shi.
Of whom I have no certain thing to write to my lord. Therefore I have brought him forth before you, and especially before you, King Agrippa, that, after examination, I may have something to write.
27 Gama a ganina wauta ce in aika dan sarka ba tare da na rubuta laifi a kansa ba.”
For it seems to me unreasonable, in sending a prisoner, not to also specify the charges against him."
