Acts 19
1 While Apollos was at Corinth, Paul, having passed through the upper country, came to Ephesus and found 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 you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?” They said to him, “No, we haven’t even heard that there is a Holy Spirit.”
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 He said, “Into what then were you baptized?” They said, “Into John’s baptism.”
Saboda haka Bulus ya yi tambaya ya ce, “To, wace baftisma aka yi muku?” Suka ce, “Baftismar Yohanna.”
4 Paul said, “John indeed baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying to the people that they should believe in the one who would come after him, that is, in Christ 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 When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.
Da ji wannan, sai aka yi musu baftisma a cikin sunan Ubangiji Yesu.
6 When Paul had laid his hands on them, the Holy Spirit came on them and they spoke with other languages 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 They were about twelve men in all.
Mutane kuwa su wajen mutum goma sha biyu ne.
8 He entered into the synagogue and spoke boldly for a period of three months, reasoning and persuading about the things concerning God’s Kingdom.
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 disobedient, speaking evil of the Way before the multitude, he departed from 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 This continued for two years, so that all those who lived in Asia heard the word of the Lord Jesus, 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 God worked special miracles by the hands of Paul,
Allah ya yi ayyukan banmamakin da suka wuce misali ta hannu Bulus,
12 so that even handkerchiefs or aprons were carried away from his body to the sick, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil 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 But some of the itinerant Jews, exorcists, took on themselves to invoke over those who had the evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, “We 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 There were seven sons of one Sceva, a Jewish chief priest, who did this.
’Ya’ya bakwai maza na Sikeba, wani babban firist na Yahudawa, suna yin haka.
15 The evil spirit answered, “Jesus I know, and Paul I know, but who are you?”
Wata rana mugun ruhu ya amsa musu ya ce, “Yesu kam na sani, Bulus kuma na sani, amma ku kuma su wane ne?”
16 The man in whom the evil spirit was leaped on them, overpowered them, and 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 This became known to all, both Jews and Greeks, who lived at Ephesus. Fear fell on them all, 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 Many also of those who had believed came, confessing and declaring their deeds.
Da yawa cikin waɗanda suka gaskata yanzu suka zo a fili suka furta mugayen ayyukansu.
19 Many of those who practiced magical arts brought their books together and burned them in the sight of all. They counted their price, and found it to be 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 So the word of the Lord was growing and becoming mighty.
Ta haka maganar Ubangiji ta bazu ko’ina ta kuma yi ƙarfi.
21 Now after these things had ended, Paul determined in the Spirit, when he had passed through Macedonia and Achaia, to go to Jerusalem, saying, “After I have been there, I must also see Rome.”
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 Having sent into Macedonia two of those who served him, Timothy and Erastus, he himself stayed in Asia for a while.
Sai ya aiki biyu daga cikin masu taimakonsa, Timoti da Erastus, zuwa Makidoniya, yayinda shi kuwa ya ɗan dakata a lardin Asiya.
23 About that time there arose no small disturbance concerning the Way.
Kusan wannan lokaci sai aka yi wani babban hargitsi game da wannan Hanyar.
24 For a certain man named Demetrius, a silversmith who made silver shrines of Artemis, brought no little business to the craftsmen,
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 he gathered together with the workmen of like occupation, and said, “Sirs, you know that by this business we have our wealth.
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 You see and hear that not at Ephesus alone, but almost throughout all Asia, this Paul has persuaded and turned away many people, saying that they are no gods that 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 Not only is there danger that this our trade come into disrepute, but also that the temple of the great goddess Artemis will be counted as nothing and her majesty destroyed, whom all Asia and the world worships.”
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 When they heard this they were filled with anger, and 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 The whole city was filled with confusion, and they rushed with one accord into the theater, having seized Gaius and Aristarchus, men of Macedonia, Paul’s companions in travel.
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 When Paul wanted to enter in to the people, the disciples didn’t allow him.
Bulus ya so ya bayyana a gaban taron, amma almajirai ba su bar shi ba.
31 Certain also of the Asiarchs, being his friends, sent to him and begged him not to venture into the theater.
Har waɗansu shugabannin lardin ma, abokan Bulus, suka aika masa suna roƙonsa kada yă kuskura ya shiga filin nan.
32 Some therefore cried one thing, and some another, for the assembly was in confusion. Most of them didn’t know why 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 They brought Alexander out of the multitude, the Jews putting him forward. Alexander beckoned with his hand, and would have made a defense 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 when they perceived that he was a Jew, all with one voice for a time of about two hours cried out, “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 When the town clerk had quieted the multitude, he said, “You men of Ephesus, what man is there who doesn’t know that the city of the Ephesians is temple keeper of the great goddess Artemis, and of the image which fell down from Zeus?
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 Seeing then that these things can’t be denied, you ought to be quiet and to do nothing rash.
Saboda haka, da yake ba dama a yi mūsun wannan gaskiya, ya kamata ku natsu kada ku yi kome da garaje.
37 For you have brought these men here, who are neither robbers of temples nor blasphemers 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 craftsmen who are with him have a matter against anyone, the courts are open and there are proconsuls. Let them press charges against 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 you seek anything about 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 indeed we are in danger of being accused concerning today’s riot, there being no cause. Concerning it, we wouldn’t be able to give an account of this commotion.”
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 When he had thus spoken, he dismissed the assembly.
Bayan da ya faɗi haka, sai ya sallami taron.
