Markus 4
1 Ya kuma fara koyarwa a bakin teku. Akwai babban taro kewaye da shi, sai ya shiga cikin jirgin ruwa a cikin tekun, ya kuwa zauna. Duk taron kuwa na kan tudu a bakin tekun.
Another time Jesus began to teach [people] alongside Lake [Galilee. As he was doing that, a very large crowd gathered around him. Because people were jostling him], he got into a boat in the lake [so that he could speak to the crowd better. Then he sat in it and began to teach the crowd from the boat]. At the same time, the crowd was on the shore close to the lake.
2 Ya koya masu abubuwa da yawa da misalai, a cikin koyawarsa ya ce masu,
Then he taught them many parables. While he was teaching them, he told them [this]:
3 “ku saurara! wani mai shuka ya tafi shuka.
“Consider [well the meaning of this illustration]: A man/farmer went out [to his field] to sow [some seeds].
4 Yana cikin yafa iri, sai wadansu iri suka fadi a kan hanya, tsuntsaye kuma suka zo suka tsince su.
As he was scattering them [over the soil], some [of the] seeds fell on the path. Then some birds came and ate those seeds.
5 Wadansu kuma suka fadi a kan dutse inda ba kasa dayawa. Nan da nan kuwa suka tsiro saboda rashin zurfin kasa.
Other [seeds] fell on ground where there was not much soil [on top of] rock. Very soon the [seeds] sprouted because [the sun warmed] the moist soil quickly where it was not deep.
6 Da rana fa ta daga, sai suka yankwane da yake ba su da saiwa sosai, sai suka bushe.
But after the sun shone [on those young plants], they became scorched. Then they withered because they did not have [deep] roots.
7 Wadansu kuma suka fadi cikin kayayuwa su ka yi girma sai kayayuwan suka shake su, ba su yi tsaba ba.
As the farmer sowed, other [seeds] fell on [ground that contained roots of] thorny plants. [The] seeds [grew, but] the thorny plants also grew up and crowded out [the] good [plants. So the plants] produced no grain.
8 Wadansu kuma suka fadi a kasa mai kyau, suka yi yabanya, suka yi tsaba, suka yi girma, wadansu ribi talattin wadansu sittin, wadansu kuma dari”.
But as the farmer sowed, other [seeds] fell on good soil. As a result, they sprouted, they grew well, and then they produced [plenty of] grain. [Some] plants bore 30 [grains]. [Some] bore 60 [grains]. [Some] bore 100 [grains].”
9 Sai ya ce, Duk mai kunnen ji, ya ji,”
Then Jesus said, “If you want to understand this [MTY], you should consider [carefully what I have just said].”
10 Sa'adda Yesu yake shi kadai, wadanda suke kusa dashi tare da sha biyun suka tambaye shi ma'anar misalan.
[Later], when only the twelve [disciples] and a few [other] people were with him, they asked him about the parables.
11 Sai ya ce masu, “ku an yardar maku, ku san asirin mulkin Allah, amma ga wadanda ba su cikinku, komai sai a cikin Misalai,
He said to them, “People have not understood before [the new message] about how God wants to rule people’s lives. It is to you that this is being made known {that I am making this known}. But I tell about this [only] (in parables/figuratively) to those who have not [yet invited God to rule their lives].
12 don gani da ido sun gani, amma ba su gane ba. ji kuma, sun ji, amma ba su fahimta ba, don kada su juyo a gafarta masu,”
As a result [it is true what a prophet has written], Although they see [what I do], they do not perceive [what it means] [DOU]. Although they hear [what I say], they do not understand [what it means] [DOU]. So they do not (repent/turn away from their sinful behavior) in order that they would be forgiven {[God] would forgive them}.”
13 Ya ce masu, “Ashe, ba ku fahimci wannan misalin ba? yaushe za ku fahimci sauran?
He also said to them, “([I am disappointed that] you do not understand this illustration!/Can you not understand this illustration?) [RHQ] [If you do not understand] this, (you will certainly not understand any of the [other] illustrations!/how will you understand any of the [other] illustrations?) [RHQ] [Nevertheless, I will explain it to you].
14 Mai shukan nan fa maganar Allah yake shukawa.
[In the illustration that I told you], the man who sows [seeds represents someone who] declares God’s message [DOU].
15 Wadanda suka fadi a hanyar kuwa, su ne kwatancin wadanda. a aka shuka mganar a zuciyarsu, Da suka ji, nan da nan sai shaidan ya zo ya dauke Maganar da aka shuka a zuciyarsu.
[Some people are like] the path on which [some of] the seeds fell. When they hear [the message], Satan comes at once and causes them to forget what they have heard.
16 Haka kuma wadanda aka shuka a wuri mai duwatsu, sune wadanda da zarar sun ji Maganar sai su karba da farin ciki.
[Some people are like the ground where the soil was not very deep over] rock. When they hear [God’s] message, they immediately accept it with joy.
17 Su kuwa basu da tushe, ba su da karfi, idan kunci ko tsanani ya zo saboda kalmar, nan da nan sai su yi tuntube.
But, because [the message does not penetrate deeply] [MET] [into their hearts/inner beings, they] believe it for [only a short time. They are like the plants that] did not have deep roots. When others treat such people badly or cause them to suffer because [they believe], those people [who are suffering] soon stop believing God’s message.
18 Wadansu kuma su ne kwatacin wadanda suka fadi cikin kayayuwa, sune wadanda suka ji Maganar,
[Some people are like] the [soil that had roots of] thorny weeds in it. [Although] those people hear [God’s] message,
19 amma abubuwan duniya, da rudin dukiya da kuma kwadayin wadansu abubuwa, sukan shiga su shake Maganar, har ta zama marar amfani. (aiōn g165)
they desire to be rich, and they desire to own many other things. So they worry [only] about material things. The result is that they forget [God’s] message and they do not do [the things that God wants them to do]. (aiōn g165)
20 Wadanda aka shuka a kasa mai kyau kuwa, sune kwatancin wadanda suke jin Maganar, su karba, su kuma yin amfani da ita wadansu ribi talatin, wadansu sittin, wadansu dari.”
[But some people] are like the good soil. They hear [God’s] message and they accept it [and they believe] it. [Then they do the things that God wants them to do. They are like the good plants that produced] 30, 60 or 100 [grains].”
21 ya ce masu, “Shin, ana kawo fitila a cikin gida don a rufe ta da kwando ko a ajiye ta a karkashin gado? ku kan kawo ta ne don ku dora ta a kan madorinta.
He also told them [another parable], saying, “(People certainly do not [light] an oil lamp and then bring it [in the house] in order that it may be put {someone may put it} under a container or under a bed./Would anyone [light] an oil lamp and then bring it [in the house] in order that it may be put {someone may put it} under a container or under a bed?) [RHQ] (No, [they light it] in order that it may be put {someone may put it} in a place [where it lights the house].[/Wouldn’t they light it] in order that it may be put {someone may put it} in a place [where it lights the house]?) [RHQ]
22 Ba abin da yake boye, da baza a sani ba ko kuma ba abinda ke asirce da bazaya bayyana a fili ba.
[Similarly], there are some [parts of God’s message] that people do not know. [But he intends that] people will understand all the things that they do not know [now].
23 Bari mai kunnen ji, ya ji!''
If you want to understand this, you should consider [carefully] what you [have just heard].”
24 Sai ya ce masu, ku mai da hankali a kan abin da kuka ji, Mudun da ka auna, da shi za a auna maka, har ma a kara maka.
Then he said to them, “Consider carefully what you hear [me say to you], for [God] will let you [understand] to the same degree that you [consider what I say]. [He] will let you [understand] even more than that.
25 Domin mai abu akan karawa, marar abu kuma za a karba daga wurinsa a kuma karawa mai shi.”
Those who [consider what I say] and understand it, [God] will enable them to understand more. But those who do not [consider carefully what I say], they will forget even what they already know.”
26 Sai ya ce, “Mulkin Allah kamar mutum yake mai yafa iri a kasa.
Jesus also said, “God [has the power to change] people who let him rule their lives. I [will illustrate how that can happen] [MET]. A man planted seeds in the ground.
27 A kwana a tashi har irin ya tsiro, ya girma bai kuwa san ta yaya aka yi ba.
Afterwards he slept each night and rose each day [without worrying about the seeds]. [During that time] the seeds sprouted and grew in a way that he did not understand, because by itself the soil [caused the plants to grow and produce grain].
28 Kasa da kanta, takan ba da amfani, tsiro shine ne na farko,
First the stalks [appeared]. Then the heads [appeared]. Then the full kernels in the heads [appeared].
29 Sai kai, sa'anan sai kwaya mai kwari. Sa, adda amfani ya nuna, sai ya sa lauje ya yanke nan da nan, wato kaka ta yi kenan.”
As soon as the grain was ripe he sent [people] [MTY] to harvest it because it was time to harvest [the grain].”
30 Ya kuma ce, “Da me za mu kwatanta Mulki Allah? ko kuwa da wane misali za mu misalta shi?
[Jesus told them] another [parable. He] said, “I will tell you [RHQ] how the [number of people] whose lives God rules in a new way [will continue to grow] (OR, each continue to have more and more influence in this world). I hope [RHQ] that this illustration will show this [to you].
31 Kamar kwayar zarra yake wadda, in an shuka ta, ko da yake ita ce mafi kankanta cikin kwayoyi a duniya.
[You know what happens to] mustard seeds when we plant them. Though mustard seeds are among the smallest of seeds, [here in Israel] they become large plants.
32 Duk da haka in an shuka ta, sai ta yi girma fiye da duk sauran ita-tuwan da ke a jeji tayi manyan rassa, har tsuntsaye su iya yin sheka arassanta.”
After they are planted, they grow up and become larger than the other garden plants. They put out big branches so that birds are able to make nests in their shade.”
33 Da misalai da yawa, irin wadannan ya yi masu Magana, dadai gwargwadon ganewarsu,
Jesus used many such illustrations when he talked to the people about God. If they were able to understand [some, he kept telling them more].
34 ba ya fada masu kome sai da misali, amma a kebe, yakan bayyana wa almajiransa dukan abu.
He always used parables when he spoke to them. But he explained all [the illustrations] to his own disciples when he was alone with them.
35 A ranan nan da yama ta yi yace masu “Mu haye wancan ketaren.”
On that same day, when the sun was setting, Jesus said to [his disciples], “Let’s cross over to the opposite side of [Lake Galilee in the boat].”
36 Sai suka bar taron, suka tafi tare da shi acikin cikin jirgin. wadansu jirage kuma na tare da shi.
So they left the crowd, [got in] the boat where Jesus [already] was, and left. [Other people] went with them in other boats.
37 Sai babban hadari da iska mai karfi ya taso, rakuman ruwa kuma na ta girgizawa cikin jirgin, har jirgin ya cika.
A strong wind came up and the waves started coming into the boat! The boat was soon nearly full [of water]!
38 Yesu kuwa na daga karshen bayan jirgin a kan kujera, yana barci, sai suka tashe shi, suka ce masa “Malam za mu hallaka ba ka kula ba?”
Jesus was in the back part of the boat. He was sleeping, [with his head] on a cushion. So they woke him up and said to him, “Teacher! (You ought to be concerned that we are about to die!/Are you not concerned that we are about to die?) [RHQ]”
39 Sai ya farka, ya tsawata wa Iskar. Ya kuma ce wa ruwan tekun, “Ka natsu! ka yi shiru!” Sai Iskar ta kwanta, wurin duk ya yi shiru.
So Jesus got up and rebuked the wind. Then he said to the lake, “Be quiet! Be still! [DOU]” The wind [immediately] blowing and then [the lake] became very calm.
40 Ya ce masu, “Don me kuka firgita haka? Har yanzu baku da bangaskiya ne?”
He said to the disciples, “([I am disappointed that] you are afraid [like that]!/Why are you afraid [like that]?) [RHQ] Do you not yet believe [that I can protect you]?”
41 Sai suka tsorata kwarai suka ce wa juna, “wanene wannan kuma, wanda har Iska da teku ma suke yi masa biyayya?”
They were very awestruck. They said to one another, “[Not only do the demons obey this man, but] even the wind and the waves obey him! “(What kind of man is he?/This man is [not like ordinary] people!) [RHQ]”
