Afisawa 2
1 Amma da ku matattu ne cikin zunubanku da laifofinku.
Even you, being dead to offenses and sins,
2 A cikinsu kuka yi rayuwa bisa ga al'amuran duniyan nan. Kuka biye wa mai sarautar ikokin sararin sama, wannan ruhun ne da ke aiki cikin kangararrun 'ya'ya. (aiōn g165)
in which you formerly walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is actively at work in the sons of disobedience: (aiōn g165)
3 Da can dukanmu muna cikin wadannan marasa bada gaskiya. Muka biye wa mugun burin jikinmu. Muna aikata halin mutuntaka da na tunaninmu. Bisa ga dabi'a 'ya'ya ne wadanda sun cancanci fushin Allah, kamar wadansu.
among whom also we all formerly lived in the desires of our flesh, doing the will of the flesh and of the feelings, and were by nature children of wrath, even as others:
4 Amma Allah mai yalwar jinkai ne, sabili da matukar kauna da ya kaunace mu.
but God, being rich in mercy, on account of his great love with which he loved us,
5 Sa'anda muke matattu cikin zunubai, ya kawo mu cikin sabon rai tare da Almasihu. Ta wurin alheri aka cece mu.
made alive with Christ even us, being dead to our offenses, (by grace you are saved, )
6 Allah ya tashe mu tare ya kuma sa muka zauna tare a matsayi guda cikin Almasihu Yesu.
and raised us up, and made us sit together in heavenly places, in Christ Jesus;
7 Ya yi wannan domin a zamanai masu zuwa ya nuna mana matukar yalwar arzikin alherinsa ta wurin Yesu. Yana nuna mana wannan ta wurin alherinsa. (aiōn g165)
that he might show, in the ages to come, the exceeding riches of his grace by his kindness to us in Christ Jesus. (aiōn g165)
8 Domin ta wurin alheri aka cece ku ta wurin bangaskiya, wannan ba daga gare ku ba ne, kyauta ce ta Allah.
For by grace you have been saved through the faith; and this matter is not of yourselves; it is the gift of God:
9 Ba daga ayyuka ba, Saboda wannan dalili kada kowa ya yi fahariya.
not by works, lest any one should boast.
10 Gama mu aikin hannuwansa ne, halitattu cikin Almasihu Yesu domin mu yi kyawawan ayyuka, wadanda tun da Allah ya tanada, mu yi rayuwa a cikinsu.
For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God before prepared, that we should walk in them.
11 Saboda haka ku tuna da ku al'ummai ne a dabi'ar jiki. Ana kiranku “marasa kaciya”, abin da ake kira kaciya cikin jiki wadda hannayen mutane ke yi.
For which reason, remember that you were formerly Gen tiles, by natural descent, and that you are called Uncircumcision by the Circumcision; so called, from a mark made in the flesh by hands;
12 Gama a lokacin nan a rabe kuke da Almasihu. Ku bare ne ga mutanen Isra'ila. Ku baki ne ga wa'adodi na al'kawarai. Ba ku da tabbaci a kan gobe. Ba ku da Allah a cikin duniya.
that you were at that time without Christ, being aliens from the community of Israel, and strangers to the covenants of promise, having no hope, and having no God in the world:
13 Amma yanzu a cikin Almasihu Yesu ku da da kuke nesa da Allah, an kawo ku kusa da shi ta wurin jinin Almasihu.
but now, in Christ Jesus, you, who were formerly far off, have become near, by the blood of the Christ.
14 Gama shine salamar mu. Domin ya mai da biyun daya. Cikin jikinsa ne ya rushe katangar gaba da ta raba mu da juna.
For he is our peace, who has made both parties one, and broken down the partition wall that separated us,
15 Wato ya kawar da shari'a mai umarnai da sharudda, domin ya halitta sabon mutum daya a cikinsa. Yin haka ya kawo salama.
having abolished, in his flesh, the cause of enmity, the law of commandments in ordinances, that he might, by himself, form the two into one new man, thus making peace;
16 Ya yi haka domin ya sulhunta mutum biyu cikin jiki daya ga Allah ta wurin gicciye. Ta wurin gicciye ya kashe gabar da ke tsakaninsu.
and that he might reconcile both, in one body, to God, through the cross, having by it put to death the cause of enmity;
17 Yesu ya zo ya yi maku shelar salama ku da kuke nesa da ku na kusa.
and having come, he preached peace to you who were far off, and to those who were near:
18 Domin ta wurin Yesu dukanmu biyu cikin Ruhu daya muna da hanya zuwa wurin Uba.
for, through him, we both have access in one Spirit to the Father.
19 Sabo da haka yanzu ku al'ummai, ko daya, ba bare ba ne. Maimakon haka ku abokai ne tare da kebabbun Allah, abokan aiki.
Now, therefore, you are no longer strangers and sojourners, but fellow-citizens with the saints, and of the household of God,
20 Wadanda an gina su bisa tushen manzanni da annabawa. Almasihu Yesu da kansa shine mafificin dutsen ginin.
having been builded upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner-stone,
21 A cikinsa dukan ginin ya hade tare, suna kuma girma kamar haikali cikin Ubangiji.
in whom the whole building, compactly fitted together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord;
22 A cikinsa ne kuma ake gina ku gaba daya kun zama mazaunin Allah a cikin Ruhu.
in whom you also are builded together, for a dwelling-place of God by his Spirit.
