Philemon 1
1 Paul, prisoner of Christ Jesus, and Timothy my brother, —unto Philemon the beloved, and a fellow worker of ours,
Bulus, ɗan kurkuku saboda Kiristi Yesu, da kuma Timoti ɗan’uwanmu, Zuwa ga Filemon ƙaunataccen abokinmu da kuma abokin aikinmu,
2 And unto Apphia our sister. And unto Archippus our fellow-soldier, and unto the assembly which meeteth, at thy house:
zuwa kuma ga Affiya’yar’uwarmu, zuwa kuma ga Arkiffus abokin famarmu, da zuwa kuma ga ikkilisiyar da take taruwa a gidanka.
3 Favour unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and Lord Jesus Christ.
Alheri da salama daga Allah Ubanmu da kuma Ubangiji Yesu Kiristi, su kasance tare da ku.
4 I am giving thanks unto my God—always, making mention, of thee, in my prayers,
Kullum nakan gode wa Allahna sa’ad da nake tuna da kai cikin addu’o’ina,
5 Hearing of thy love, and of the faith which thou hast towards the Lord Jesus and towards all the saints, —
domin ina jin labari bangaskiyarka cikin Ubangiji Yesu da kuma ƙaunarka da kake yi saboda dukan tsarkaka.
6 To the end that, the fellowship of thy faith, may become, energetic, by a personal knowledge of every good thing that is in us towards Christ;
Ina addu’a ka zama mai ƙwazo cikin shaida bangaskiyarka, domin ka sami cikakken fahimta ta kowane abin da yake nagarin da muke da shi cikin Kiristi.
7 For, much joy, have I had, and encouragement, by occasion of thy love, in that, the tender affections of the saints, have had rest given them by thee, brother.
Ƙaunarka ta sa ni farin ciki ƙwarai ta kuma ƙarfafa ni, domin kai, ɗan’uwa, ka wartsake zukatan tsarkaka.
8 Wherefore, though I have, much, freedom of speech, in Christ, to be enjoining upon thee that which is befitting,
Saboda haka, ko da yake cikin Kiristi ina iya yin ƙarfin hali in umarce ka ka yi abin da ya kamata,
9 Yet, for loves sake, I rather exhort, —being, such a one, as Paul the aged, now, also, even a prisoner of Christ Jesus, —
duk da haka ina roƙonka saboda ƙauna, na fi so in roƙe ka, ni Bulus tsoho, a yanzu kuma ga ni ɗan sarƙa saboda Kiristi Yesu.
10 I exhort thee concerning my own child, whom I have begotten in my bonds, —Onesimus:
Ina roƙonka saboda ɗana Onesimus, wanda ya zama ɗana yayinda nake cikin sarƙoƙi.
11 Him who, at one time, was, unto thee, unserviceable, but, now, unto thee and unto me, serviceable;
Dā kam, ba shi da amfani a gare ka, amma yanzu ya zama da amfani a gare ka da kuma gare ni.
12 Whom I have sent back unto thee—him, that is, my own, tender affections!—
Ina aike shi yă koma gare ka, shi da yake zuciyata.
13 Whom, I, was minded, with myself, to detain, that, in thy behalf, unto me, he might be ministering in the bonds of the joyful message;
Na so in riƙe shi a wurina a madadinka domin yă taimake ni yayinda nake cikin sarƙoƙi saboda bishara.
14 But, apart from thy mind, I wished to do, nothing, that, not as by necessity, thy goodness should be, but, by choice.
Sai dai ban so in yi kome ban da yardarka ba, domin kowane alherin da za ka yi, yă fito daga zuciyarka, ba na tilas ba.
15 For, peradventure, for this cause, was he separated for an hour, that, as an age-abiding possession, thou mightest have him back, — (aiōnios g166)
Wataƙila abin da ya sa aka raba ka da shi na ɗan lokaci ƙanƙani shi ne don ka same shi da amfani (aiōnios g166)
16 No longer as a servant, but above a servant—a brother beloved, very greatly to me, but, how much rather, to thee—both in the flesh and in the Lord!
ba kamar bawa kuma ba, sai dai fiye da bawa, a matsayin ƙaunataccen ɗan’uwa. Shi ƙaunatacce ne sosai a gare ni amma a gare ka ya ma fi zama ƙaunatacce, kamar mutum da kuma kamar ɗan’uwa a cikin Ubangiji.
17 If, therefore, thou holdest me as one in thy fellowship, take him unto thee, as myself;
Saboda haka in ka ɗauke ni a kan ni abokin tarayya ne, sai ka marabce shi kamar yadda za ka marabce ni.
18 And, if he hath wronged thee at all or oweth thee aught, the same, unto me, do thou reckon: —
In ya yi maka wani laifi ko kuma yana riƙe maka wani bashi, sai ka mai da shi a kaina.
19 I, Paul, have written [it] with, my own, hand, —I, will repay [it]; that I may not tell thee—that, thyself, unto me, thou still owest.
Ni, Bulus, nake rubuta wannan da hannuna. Zan biya ka, kada ma a yi zancen ranka da kake riƙe mini bashi.
20 Yea! brother, I, would, from thee, have help, in the Lord: give rest unto my tender affections in Christ.
Ina fata, ɗan’uwa, zan sami amfani daga gare ka cikin Ubangiji; ka wartsake zuciyata cikin Kiristi.
21 Confident of thine obedience, I have written unto thee, knowing that, even beyond what I say, thou wilt do: —
Da tabbacin biyayyarka, ina rubuta maka, da sanin za ka yi fiye da abin da na ce.
22 At the same time, moreover, be also getting ready for me, a lodging; for I am hoping that, through your prayers, I shall be granted as a favour unto you.
Abu guda ya rage, ka shirya mini masauƙi, domin ina bege za a mayar da ni gare ku albarkacin addu’o’inku.
23 There salute thee—Epaphras my fellow-captive in Christ Jesus,
Efafaras, abokin tarayyata a kurkuku cikin Kiristi Yesu, yana gaishe ka.
24 Mark, Aristarchus, Demas, Luke, —my fellow-workers.
Haka kuma Markus, Aristarkus, Demas da kuma Luka, abokan aikina.
25 The favour of the Lord Jesus Christ, be with your spirit.
Alherin Ubangiji Yesu Kiristi yă kasance da ruhunku.
