Ayyukan Manzanni 7
1 Sai babban firist ya ce, ''Wadannan al'amura gaskiya ne?''
Then the high priest said, “Are these accusations true?”
2 Sai Istifanus ya amsa ya ce, ''Ya 'yan'uwa da ubanni, ku saurare ni, Allah Madaukaki ya bayyana ga ubanmu Ibrahim tun yana can kasar Mesofotamiya, kafin ma ya zauna a kasar Haran;
Stephen said, “Brothers and fathers, listen. The God of glory appeared to our father Abraham when he was in Mesopotamia, before he dwelt in Haran,
3 ya ce masa, 'Ka bar kasarka da danginka, ka tafi kasar da zan nuna maka.'
and said to him, ‘Leave yoʋr land and yoʋr relatives, and go to a land I will show yoʋ.’
4 Sa'annan ya bar kasar Kaldiyawa ya zo ya zauna a Haran; daga can, bayan rasuwar mahaifinsa, sai Allah ya kira shi zuwa wannan kasa da kuke ciki.
Then he left the land of the Chaldeans and dwelt in Haran. After his father died, God relocated him to this land in which you now dwell.
5 Amma Allah bai ba shi kasar gado ba tukuna, ko da misalin tafin sawunsa. Amma ya alkawarta - ko da yake bai riga ya haifi da ba tukuna - wanda zai ba shi kasar gado, shi da zuriyarsa, a bayansa.
He gave him no inheritance in it, not even the length of a footstep, but promised to give it to him for a possession, and to his descendants after him, even though he had no child.
6 Allah ya yi magana da shi kamar haka, cewa zuriyarsa za su yi bakonci a wata kasa wadda ba tasu ba, mutanen wannan kasar kuwa za su gwada masu bakar azaba su kuma bautar da su har shekaru dari hudu.
God told him that his descendants would be sojourners in a foreign land, and that the people of that land would enslave them and mistreat them for four hundred years.
7 'Kuma zan hukunta wannan al'umma da ta bautar da su,' Allah ya ce, 'Bayan haka za su fito daga wannan kasa su bauta mini a wannan wuri.'
‘But I will judge the nation whom they serve as slaves,’ God said, ‘and afterward they will come out of that country and serve me in this place.’
8 Allah ya ba Ibrahim alkawarin kaciya, sai Ibrahim ya haifi Ishaku ya yi masa kaciya a rana ta takwas; Ishaku ya haifi Yakubu, Yakubu kuma ya haifi ubanni Isra'ila su goma sha biyu.
Then he gave Abraham the covenant of circumcision, and Abraham became the father of Isaac and circumcised him on the eighth day. Later Isaac became the father of Jacob, and Jacob became the father of the twelve patriarchs.
9 Wadannan 'yan'uwa suka yi kyashin danuwansu Yusifu suka sayar da shi bauta zuwa Masar. Amma Allah na tare da shi.
“The patriarchs became jealous of Joseph and sold him into Egypt. But God was with him
10 Ya kuwa cece shi daga dukan sharin da yan uwansa suka kulla masa, Allah kuwa ya ba shi tagomashi da hikima a gaban Fir'auna, sarkin Masar. Fir'auna kuwa ya mai da shi mai mulki a dukan kasar Masar da kuma dukan mallakarsa.
and delivered him out of all his afflictions. He gave Joseph favor and wisdom before Pharaoh, king of Egypt, so Pharaoh appointed him as ruler over Egypt and over all his household.
11 Sai aka yi babbar yunwa a dukan kasar Masar da ta Kan'ana, iyayenmu suka sha wuya saboda rashin abinci.
Then a famine came upon all the land of Egypt and Canaan, along with great suffering, and our fathers could find no food.
12 Amma lokacin da Yakubu ya ji akwai hatsi a kasar Masar, sai ya aiki ubannimu a karo na farko.
But when Jacob heard that there was grain in Egypt, he sent our fathers out the first time.
13 Da suka je a karo na biyu, sai Yusifu ya bayyana kansa ga yanuwansa; a wannan lokaci ne Fir'auna ya gane da yanuwan Yusufu.
On their second visit, Joseph made himself known to his brothers again, and Joseph's family became known to Pharaoh.
14 Yusufu ya aiki yanuwansa su kawo Yakubu ubansu da dukan mallakarsu da iyalansu zuwa Masar, Dukansu mutane saba'in da biyar ne.
Then Joseph sent and called for his father Jacob and all his relatives, seventy-five people in all.
15 Yakubu ya tafi ya zauna a Masar; shi da zuriyarsa har mutuwar su.
So Jacob went down to Egypt, and there he died, he and our fathers.
16 Aka dauke su zuwa Shekem aka binne su a kabarin da Ibrahim ya saya da kudin azurfa daga hannun yayan Hamor a Shekem.
Later their bodies were moved to Shechem and laid in the tomb that Abraham had bought for a sum of money from the sons of Hamor, the father of Shechem.
17 Yayin da alkawarin Allah ya kusato wanda Allah ya fada wa Ibrahim, mutanen suka karu suka hayayyafa kwarai a Masar,
“As the time drew near for God to fulfill the promise he had sworn to Abraham, our people increased and multiplied in Egypt
18 Sai a ka yi wani sarki a Masar wanda bai san Yusifu ba,
until there arose another king who did not know Joseph.
19 Wannan sarki ya yaudari kakkaninmu ya yi masu mugunta kwarai da gaske, har ma ya kai ga suna barin jariransu cikin hasari don su ceci rayukansu.
This king dealt shrewdly with our people and mistreated our fathers, making them abandon their newborn babies so that they would not survive.
20 A wannan lokaci ne aka haifi Musa, kuma kyakkyawan yaro ne sai aka yi renon sa tsawon wata uku a gidan mahaifinsa a asirce.
At that time Moses was born, and he was beautiful in God's sight. For three months he was brought up in his father's house,
21 Yayin da aka jefar da shi, sai diyar Fir'auna ta dauke shi ta rene shi kamar danta.
and when he was abandoned, Pharaoh's daughter took him in and brought him up as her own son.
22 Aka ilimantar da Musa da dukan ilimi irin na Masar; kuma ya shahara cikin fasahar magana da kuma ayyukansa.
So Moses was trained in all the wisdom of the Egyptians, and he was mighty in words and deeds.
23 Amma lokacin da yakai shekara arba'in, sai ya yi niyyar ya ziyarci 'yan'uwansa, Isra'ilawa.
“When Moses reached forty years of age, it came into his heart to visit his brothers, the sons of Israel.
24 Sai ya ga wani na cin zalin Ba Isra'ile, Musa kuwa ya taimaki wanda ake kwara ta wurin murkushe Bamasaren:
When he saw one of them being wronged, he came to the aid of the man who was being oppressed and avenged him by striking down the Egyptian who was oppressing him.
25 zaton Musa 'yan'uwansa za su fahimci taimakon Allah ne ya zo masu amma ina! Basu gane ba.
Moses assumed that his brothers would understand that God was granting them deliverance by his hand, but they did not understand.
26 Washegari ya ga wasu Isra'ilawa na fada da junansu; ya yi kokari ya raba su; sai ya ce masu, 'Malamai, ku 'yan'uwan juna ne; don me kuke fada da junanku?'
The next day Moses came upon two Israelites who were fighting and urged them to make peace, saying, ‘Men, you are brothers; why are you hurting each other?’
27 Amma shi wanda ake kwarar makwabcinsa ya ture Musa a gefe guda, ya ce, 'Wa ya nada ka shugaba ko alkali akanmu?
But the one who was hurting his neighbor thrust Moses aside and said, ‘Who appointed yoʋ to be a ruler and judge over us?
28 Kana so ka kashe ni ne, kamar yadda ka kashe Bamasaren nan jiya?'
Do yoʋ want to kill me as yoʋ killed that Egyptian yesterday?’
29 Da jin haka sai Musa ya gudu, zuwa kasar Midinawa, a matsayin dan gudun hijira. Anan ya haifi ''ya'ya biyu maza.
At this remark Moses fled and became a sojourner in the land of Midian, where he became the father of two sons.
30 Bayan da shekaru arba'in suka wuce, sai mala'ika ya bayyana gare shi a jeji, kusa da dutsen Sinai, a cikin harshen wuta a cikin jeji.
“After forty years had passed, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in the wilderness of Mount Sinai, in a flame of fire in a bush.
31 Sa'adda Musa ya ga wutar, mamaki ya kama shi; sai ya maso kusa don ya kara dubawa, sai ya ji muryar Ubangiji na cewa,
When Moses saw it, he was amazed at the sight. As he drew near to look at it, the voice of the Lord came to him:
32 'Nine Allah na ubanninka, Ibrahim, da na Ishaku, da na Yakubu.' Musa ya razana har ma bai sake daga kai ya duba ba.
‘I am the God of yoʋr fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.’ Moses began to tremble and did not dare to look.
33 Ubangiji ya ce masa, 'Tube takalminka, domin in da kake tsaye wuri mai tsarki ne.
Then the Lord said to him, ‘Remove the sandals from yoʋr feet, for the place where yoʋ are standing is holy ground.
34 Ba shakka na ga wahalar da mutane na ke sha a Masar, kuma na ji nishinsu, don haka na zo in cece su, yanzu fa sai ka zo, in aike ka zuwa Masar.'
I have surely seen the mistreatment of my people in Egypt. I have heard their groaning and have come down to deliver them. Now come, I will send yoʋ to Egypt.’
35 Wannan fa shine Musan da suka ki, harma da cewa, 'Wanene ya nada ka alkali ko shugaba a kanmu?' Shine kuma wanda Allah ya aiko masu a matsayin shugaba da kuma mai ceto. Allah ya aiko shi ta hannun mala'ikan da ya gani a daji.
“This is the same Moses they had rejected, saying, ‘Who appointed yoʋ to be a ruler and judge?’ He is the one God sent as a ruler and redeemer by the hand of the angel who appeared to him in the bush.
36 Bayan alamu da al'ajibai iri-iri a Masar da kuma Baharmaliya, Musa ya fito da su daga Masar da kuma cikin jeji, a lokacin da suka yi tafiya shekara arbain.
He is the one who led them out, performing wonders and signs in the land of Egypt, at the Red Sea, and in the wilderness for forty years.
37 Wannan shine Musan da ya cewa Isra'ilawa, 'Ubangiji zai tayar maku da wani annabi kamar ni daga cikin Yan'uwan ku.'
This is the same Moses who said to the sons of Israel, ‘The Lord our God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among your brothers.’
38 Wannan shine mutumin da ke tare da mutane a jeji. Karkashin jagorancin mala'ikan da ya yi magana da shi a dutsen Sinai. Wannan ne mutumin da ke tare da ubannen mu, wannan shi ne mutumin da ya ba mu maganar Allah mai rai.
This is the man who was with our fathers in the assembly in the wilderness when the angel spoke to him on Mount Sinai. He received a living word to give to us.
39 Wannan shine mutumin da ubannenmu suka ki su yi masa biyayya; su ka fitar da shi daga cikinsu, suka kudurta a zuciyarsu za su koma masar.
Our fathers were unwilling to obey him. Instead, they thrust him aside, and in their hearts they turned back to Egypt,
40 A lokacin ne suka cewa Haruna, 'ya yi masu allolin da za su jagorance su zuwa masar. Domin kuwa ga zancen Musan nan da ya fito da mu daga Masar, ba mu san abin da ya faru da shi ba.'
saying to Aaron, ‘Make us gods who will go before us, for we do not know what has happened to this Moses who led us out of the land of Egypt.’
41 Sai suka kera dan maraki suka kawo wa gunkin hadaya, suka yi murna da abin da hannayensu suka kera.
In those days they made an idol in the form of a calf, brought a sacrifice to the idol, and rejoiced at the works of their hands.
42 Allah ya bashe su su bauta wa tauraran sama, kamar yadda yake a rubuce cikin littattafafan annabawa, 'Kun mika mani hadayu na yankakkun dabbobi a jeji ne a shekaru arba'in din nan ya ku Isra'ilawa?'
But God turned away from them and gave them up to serve the host of heaven, just as it is written in the book of the prophets: ‘Was it to me that you offered slain beasts and sacrifices for forty years in the wilderness, O house of Israel?
43 Kun yarda da haikalin Molek da kuma tauraron allahn nan Rafem, da kuma siffofin nan da kuka kera don ku yi masu sujada; don haka zan kai ku bauta har gaba da Babila.'
No! You took up the tabernacle of Molech and the star of your god Remphan, the images you made so that you could worship them, so I will send you into exile beyond Babylon.’
44 Kakkaninmu suna da alfarwa ta sujada domin shaida a cikin jeji, kamar yadda Allah ya umarta yayin da ya yi magana da Musa, cewa ya yi shi bisa ga salon da aka nuna mashi.
“Our fathers had the tabernacle of the testimony in the wilderness, just as God had directed when he spoke to Moses and told him to make it according to the pattern he had seen.
45 Wannan shine Alfarwar da kakkaninmu suka zo da shi, a lokacin Joshuwa. Wannan ya faru ne yayin da suka mallaki wannan kasa ta al'ummai da Allah ya kora a gaban kakkaninmu. Haka abin yake har ya zuwa zamanin Dauda,
Receiving it in turn, our fathers brought it in with Joshua when they dispossessed the nations whom God drove out from their presence. It remained there until the days of David,
46 wanda ya sami tagomashi a wurin Allah; don ya gina masujada domin Allah na Yakubu.
who found favor before God and asked if he could provide a dwelling place for the God of Jacob.
47 Amma Sulaimanu ne ya gina Gidan Allah.
But it was Solomon who built a house for him.
48 Sai dai Madaukaki ba yakan zauna a gidan da hannaye suka gina ba, kamar yadda annabin ya ce,
Yet the Most High does not dwell in temples made by human hands, just as the prophet says,
49 'Sama kursiyina ce, duniya kuwa wurin ajjiye sawayena ne. To wane irin gida za ku gina mani? inji Ubangiji: ko kuwa ina ne wurin da zan huta?
‘Heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool. What house will you build for me, says the Lord, or what place is there for my rest?
50 Ko ba hannayena ne suka yi dukan wadannan ba?'
Has not my hand made all these things?’
51 Ku mutane masu taurin kai masu zuciya mara kaciya da kunnuwa marasa ji, kullum kuna gaba da Ruhu Mai Tsarki, kuna aikata abin da kakkaninku suka aikata.
“You stiff-necked people, uncircumcised in heart and ears, you always resist the Holy Spirit! As your fathers did, so you do also.
52 Wane annabi ne kakkaninku ba su tsanantawa ba? Sun kashe annabawan da suka rigayi zuwan Mai Adalcin nan, kuma kun zama wadanda suka kasance masu bashe shi da masu kashe shi,
Which of the prophets did your fathers not persecute? They even killed those who foretold the coming of the Righteous One, whose betrayers and murderers you have now become,
53 kune mutanen da kuka karbi shari'a wadda mala'iku suka bayar, amma ba ku kiyaye ta ba”.
you who received the law as ordained by angels yet have not kept it.”
54 Yayin da majalisar suka ji wannan, sai ransu ya baci kwarai, har suna cizon hakoransu don gaba da Istifanus.
When the members of the Sanhedrin heard these things, they were cut to the heart and began gnashing their teeth at him.
55 Amma shi, cike da Ruhu Mai Tsarki, sai ya daga idonsa sama, ya ga daukakar Allah; ya kuma hango Yesu na tsaye a hannun daman Allah.
But Stephen, full of the Holy Spirit, gazed into heaven and saw the glory of God and Jesus standing at the right hand of God.
56 Istifanus ya ce, “Duba, ina ganin sama ta bude, ga Dan Mutum na tsaye a hannun dama na Allah.”
He said, “Behold, I see the heavens opened and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God.”
57 Amma yan majalisar suka daga murya da karfi, suka yi ihu, suka kuma toshe kunnuwansu, gaba dayansu suka afka masa;
But they cried out with a loud voice, stopped their ears, and rushed at him with one accord.
58 suka fitar da shi bayan gari, suka jejjefe shi da duwatsu, don shaida sai suka tube manyan rigunansu suka ajiye a gaban wani matashi da ake ce da shi Shawulu.
Then they drove him out of the city and began stoning him. Meanwhile, the witnesses laid their cloaks at the feet of a young man named Saul.
59 Lokacin da suke kan jifan Istifanus, ya dinga kira yana cewa, ''Ya Ubangiji Yesu, ka karbi ruhu na.”
They continued stoning Stephen while he prayed, “Lord Jesus, receive my spirit!”
60 Ya durkusa ya daga murya da karfi, ya ce, “Ya Ubangiji, kada ka rike wannan zunubi a kansu.” Yayin da ya fadi wannan, sai ya yi barci.
Then he fell to his knees and cried out with a loud voice, “Lord, do not hold this sin against them!” After saying this, he fell asleep.
