Acts 19
1 And it came to pass, while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul, having passed through the upper districts, came to Ephesus, and finding certain disciples,
Lokacin da Afollos yake a Korint, Bulus ya bi hanyar da ta ratsa ta Asiya ya zo Afisa. A can ya sadu da waɗansu almajirai,
2 he said to them, Did ye receive [the] Holy Spirit when ye had believed? And they [said] to him, We did not even hear if [the] Holy Spirit was [come].
sai ya tambaye, su ya ce, “Kun karɓi Ruhu Mai Tsarki sa’ad da kuka gaskata?” Suka amsa suka ce, “A’a, ba mu ma san akwai Ruhu Mai Tsarki ba.”
3 And he said, To what then were ye baptised? And they said, To the baptism of John.
Saboda haka Bulus ya yi tambaya ya ce, “To, wace baftisma aka yi muku?” Suka ce, “Baftismar Yohanna.”
4 And Paul said, John indeed baptised [with] the baptism of repentance, saying to the people that they should believe on him that was coming after him, that is, on Jesus.
Bulus ya ce, “Ai, baftismar Yohanna, baftisma ce ta tuba. Ya ce wa mutane su gaskata a wani wanda yake zuwa bayansa, wato, Yesu.”
5 And when they heard that, they were baptised to the name of the Lord Jesus.
Da ji wannan, sai aka yi musu baftisma a cikin sunan Ubangiji Yesu.
6 And Paul having laid [his] hands on them, the Holy Spirit came upon them, and they spoke with tongues and prophesied.
Da Bulus ya ɗibiya musu hannuwansa, sai Ruhu Mai Tsarki ya sauka musu, suka kuwa yi magana da harsuna, suka kuma yi annabci.
7 And all the men were about twelve.
Mutane kuwa su wajen mutum goma sha biyu ne.
8 And entering into the synagogue, he spoke boldly during three months, reasoning and persuading [the things] concerning the kingdom of God.
Bulus ya shiga majami’a ya yi magana gabagadi a can na watanni uku, yana muhawwara yana kuma rinjayarsu game da mulkin Allah.
9 But when some were hardened and disbelieved, speaking evil of the way before the multitude, he left them and separated the disciples, reasoning daily in the school of Tyrannus.
Amma waɗansunsu suka taurara; suka ƙi su gaskata kuma a gaban jama’a suka yi baƙar magana game da Hanyar. Bulus kuwa ya bar su. Ya tafi tare da almajirai ya dinga tattaunawa da su kullum a babban ɗakin jawabi na Tirannus.
10 And this took place for two years, so that all that inhabited Asia heard the word of the Lord, both Jews and Greeks.
Wannan ya ci gaba har shekara biyu, sai da ya sa dukan Yahudawa da Hellenawa da suke zaune a lardin Asiya suka ji maganar Ubangiji.
11 And God wrought no ordinary miracles by the hands of Paul,
Allah ya yi ayyukan banmamakin da suka wuce misali ta hannu Bulus,
12 so that even napkins or aprons were brought from his body [and put] upon the sick, and the diseases left them, and the wicked spirits went out.
har ma ana kai hankicif da adikan da suka taɓa jikinsa wa marasa lafiya, suka kuwa warke daga cututtukansu mugayen ruhohi kuma suka rabu da su.
13 And certain of the Jewish exorcists also, who went about, took in hand to call upon those who had wicked spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, I adjure you by Jesus, whom Paul preaches.
Waɗansu Yahudawa masu yawo gari-gari suna fitar da mugayen ruhohi suka yi ƙoƙari su yi amfani da sunan Ubangiji Yesu a kan waɗanda suke da aljanu. Suna cewa, “A cikin sunan Yesu wanda Bulus yake wa’azi, na umarce ku, ku fito.”
14 And there were certain [men], seven sons of Sceva, Jewish high priest, who were doing this.
’Ya’ya bakwai maza na Sikeba, wani babban firist na Yahudawa, suna yin haka.
15 But the wicked spirit answering said to them, Jesus I know, and Paul I am acquainted with; but ye, who are ye?
Wata rana mugun ruhu ya amsa musu ya ce, “Yesu kam na sani, Bulus kuma na sani, amma ku kuma su wane ne?”
16 And the man in whom the wicked spirit was leaped upon them, and having mastered both, prevailed against them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded.
Sai mutumin da yake da mugun ruhun ya fāɗa musu ya sha ƙarfinsu duka. Ya yi musu dūkan tsiya har suka fita a guje daga gidan tsirara jini yana zuba.
17 And this became known to all, both Jews and Greeks, who inhabited Ephesus, and fear fell upon all of them, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified.
Da Yahudawa da Hellenawan da suke zama a Afisa suka ji wannan labari sai duk tsoro ya kama su, aka kuwa darjanta sunan Ubangiji Yesu ƙwarai.
18 And many of those that believed came confessing and declaring their deeds.
Da yawa cikin waɗanda suka gaskata yanzu suka zo a fili suka furta mugayen ayyukansu.
19 And many of those that practised curious arts brought their books [of charms] and burnt them before all. And they reckoned up the prices of them, and found it fifty thousand pieces of silver.
Waɗansu masu yin sihiri suka kawo naɗaɗɗun littattafansu wuri ɗaya suka kuwa ƙone su a gaban jama’a. Sa’ad da aka lissafta yawan kuɗin naɗaɗɗun littattafan nan, sai jimillar ta kai darik dubu hamsin.
20 Thus with might the word of the Lord increased and prevailed.
Ta haka maganar Ubangiji ta bazu ko’ina ta kuma yi ƙarfi.
21 And when these things were fulfilled, Paul purposed in his spirit to go to Jerusalem, passing through Macedonia and Achaia, saying, After I have been there I must see Rome also.
Bayan dukan wannan ya faru, sai Bulus ya yanke shawara ya ratsa Makidoniya da Akayya in za shi Urushalima. Ya kuma ce, “Bayan na tafi can, dole in ziyarci Roma ita ma.”
22 And having sent into Macedonia two of those ministering to him, Timotheus and Erastus, he remained himself awhile in Asia.
Sai ya aiki biyu daga cikin masu taimakonsa, Timoti da Erastus, zuwa Makidoniya, yayinda shi kuwa ya ɗan dakata a lardin Asiya.
23 And there took place at that time no small disturbance about the way.
Kusan wannan lokaci sai aka yi wani babban hargitsi game da wannan Hanyar.
24 For a certain [man] by name Demetrius, a silver-beater, making silver temples of Artemis, brought no small gain to the artisans;
Wani maƙerin azurfa, mai suna Demetiriyus wanda yake ƙera siffar ɗakunan tsafin Artemis da azurfa, ba ƙaramin ciniki yake kawo wa mutane masu sana’an nan ba.
25 whom having brought together, and those who wrought in such things, he said, Men, ye know that our well-living arises from this work,
Sai ya tara su wuri ɗaya, tare da masu irin wannan sana’ar ya ce, “Ku jama’a, kun san muna samun kuɗin shiga sosai daga wannan sana’a.
26 and ye see and hear that this Paul has persuaded and turned away a great crowd, not only of Ephesus, but almost of all Asia, saying that they are no gods which are made with hands.
Kuma kuna ji kuna gani yadda Bulus ɗin nan ya shawo kan mutane da yawa ya kuma sa suka bauɗe a nan a Afisa da dukan lardin Asiya. Yana cewa alloli da mutum ya ƙera ba alloli ba ne ko kaɗan.
27 Now not only there is danger for us that our business come into discredit, but also that the temple of the great goddess Artemis be counted for nothing, and that her greatness should be destroyed whom the whole of Asia and the world reveres.
Akwai hatsari, ba kawai cewa sana’armu za tă rasa sunanta mai daraja ba, amma za a yi banza da ɗakin tsafin Artemis alliyarmu mai girma, alliyar kanta wadda ake bauta a ko’ina a yankin Asiya da kuma duniya, za a raba ta da darajarta.”
28 And having heard [this], and being filled with rage, they cried out, saying, Great [is] Artemis of the Ephesians.
Da suka ji haka, sai suka yi fushi ƙwarai suka fara ihu suna cewa, “Girma ta tabbata ga Artemis ta Afisawa!”
29 And the [whole] city was filled with confusion, and they rushed with one accord to the theatre, having seized and carried off with [them] Gaius and Aristarchus, Macedonians, fellow-travellers of Paul.
Jim kaɗan sai hayaniya ta tashi a dukan birnin. Sai mutane suka cafke Gayus da Aristarkus, abokan tafiyar Bulus daga Makidoniya, suka ruga da zuwa fili da nufi ɗaya.
30 But Paul intending to go in to the people, the disciples suffered him not;
Bulus ya so ya bayyana a gaban taron, amma almajirai ba su bar shi ba.
31 and some of the Asiarchs also, who were his friends, sent to him and urged him not to throw himself into the theatre.
Har waɗansu shugabannin lardin ma, abokan Bulus, suka aika masa suna roƙonsa kada yă kuskura ya shiga filin nan.
32 Different persons therefore cried out some different thing; for the assembly was tumultuous, and the most did not know for what cause they had come together.
Taron kuwa ya ruɗe. Waɗansu suna ihu suna ce abu kaza, waɗansu kuma wani abu dabam. Yawancin mutane kuma ba su ma san abin da ya sa suke a wurin ba.
33 But from among the crowd they put forward Alexander, the Jews pushing him forward. And Alexander, beckoning with his hand, would have made a defence to the people.
Yahudawa suka tura Alekzanda gaba, sai waɗansu a taron suka riƙa yin masa ihu. Sai ya ɗaga hannu don a yi shiru don yă kāre kansa a gaban mutane.
34 But, recognising that he was a Jew, there was one cry from all, shouting for about two hours, Great [is] Artemis of the Ephesians.
Amma sa’ad da suka gane shi mutumin Yahuda ne, sai duk suka yi ihu gaba ɗaya na kusa sa’a biyu, suna cewa, “Girma ta tabbata ga Artemis ta Afisawa!”
35 And the townclerk, having quieted the crowd, said, Ephesians, what man is there then who does not know that the city of the Ephesians is temple-keeper of Artemis the great, and of the [image] which fell down from heaven?
Sai magatakardar birnin ya sa taron su yi shiru, sa’an nan ya ce, “Mutanen Afisa, ashe duk duniya ba tă san cewa birnin Afisa ce mai lura da haikalin Artemis mai girma da kuma siffarta da ya fāɗi daga sama ba?
36 These things therefore being undeniable, it is necessary that ye should be calm and do nothing headlong.
Saboda haka, da yake ba dama a yi mūsun wannan gaskiya, ya kamata ku natsu kada ku yi kome da garaje.
37 For ye have brought these men, [who are] neither temple-plunderers, nor speak injuriously of your goddess.
Kun kawo mutanen nan a nan, gashi kuwa ba su yi fashin haikali ba, ba su kuwa saɓa wa alliyarmu ba.
38 If therefore Demetrius and the artisans who [are] with him have a matter against any one, the courts are being held, and there are proconsuls: let them accuse one another.
To, in haka ne, in Demetiriyus da abokan sana’arsa suna da wata magana game da wani ai, kotuna suna nan a buɗe, akwai kuma muƙaddasai. Suna iya kai ƙara.
39 But if ye inquire anything concerning other matters, it will be settled in the regular assembly.
In kuma akwai wani abu har yanzu da kuke so ku kawo, dole a daidaita shi a majalisa.
40 For also we are in danger to be put in accusation for sedition for this [affair] of to-day, no cause existing in reference to which we shall be able to give a reason for this concourse.
Yadda yake a yanzu, muna a hatsarin amsa zargin ta da hargitsi saboda abin da ya faru yau. Da yake ba za mu iya ba da dalilin da ya sa aka yi wannan hargitsi ba.”
41 And having said these things, he dismissed the assembly.
Bayan da ya faɗi haka, sai ya sallami taron.
