1 Peter 2
1 Putting away therefore all wickedness, all deceit, hypocrisies, envies, and all evil speaking,
Saboda haka, ku rabu da kowace ƙeta da dukan ruɗu, munafunci, kishi, da kuma kowace irin ɓata suna.
2 as newborn babies, long for the pure spiritual milk, that with it you may grow,
Kamar sababbin jarirai, ku yi marmarin madara zalla ta ruhaniya, domin ta wurinta za ku yi girma cikin cetonku,
3 if indeed you have tasted that the Lord is gracious.
yanzu da kuka ɗanɗana alherin Ubangiji.
4 Come to him, a living stone, rejected indeed by men, but chosen by God, precious.
Da kuka zo gare shi, rayayyen Dutse, da mutane suka ƙi amma Allah ya zaɓa, kuma mai daraja a gare shi
5 You also as living stones are built up as a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.
ku ma, a matsayinku na duwatsu masu rai, ana gina ku ga zama gidan ruhaniya don ku zama tsattsarkar ƙungiyar firistoci, kuna miƙa hadayun ruhaniya, abin karɓa ga Allah ta wurin Yesu Kiristi.
6 Because it is contained in Scripture, “Behold, I lay in Zion a chief cornerstone, chosen and precious. He who believes in him will not be disappointed.”
Gama a cikin Nassi an ce, “Ga shi, na kafa dutse a Sihiyona, zaɓaɓɓen dutse na kusurwar gini mai daraja, wanda kuma ya dogara gare shi ba zai taɓa kunyata ba.”
7 For you who believe therefore is the honor, but for those who are disobedient, “The stone which the builders rejected has become the chief cornerstone,”
A gare ku da kuka gaskata, wannan dutse mai daraja ne. Amma ga waɗanda ba su gaskata ba, “Dutsen da magina suka ƙi ya zama dutsen kusurwar gini,
8 and, “a stumbling stone and a rock of offense.” For they stumble at the word, being disobedient, to which also they were appointed.
kuma, “Dutse ne da yake sa mutane tuntuɓe kuma fā ne da yake sa su fāɗi.” Sun yi tuntuɓe domin sun ƙi su yi biyayya da saƙon, wanda kuma yake abin da aka ƙaddara musu.
9 But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God’s own possession, that you may proclaim the excellence of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.
Amma ku zaɓaɓɓu ne, ƙungiyar firistocin babban Sarki, al’umma mai tsarki, jama’a mallakar Allah, domin ku shaida yabon shi wanda ya kira ku daga cikin duhu zuwa haskensa mai banmamaki.
10 In the past, you were not a people, but now are God’s people, who had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.
Dā ku ba mutane ba ne, amma yanzu ku mutanen Allah ne; Dā ba ku karɓi jinƙai ba, amma yanzu kun karɓi jinƙai.
11 Beloved, I beg you as foreigners and pilgrims to abstain from fleshly lusts which war against the soul,
Abokaina ƙaunatattu, ina roƙonku, a matsayin bare da kuma baƙi a duniya, ku rabu da sha’awace-sha’awacen zunubin da suke yaƙi da ranku.
12 having good behavior among the nations, so in that of which they speak against you as evildoers, they may see your good works and glorify God in the day of visitation.
Ku yi irin rayuwa mai kyau a cikin masu bautar gumaka, yadda ko da sun zarge ku da yin laifi, za su iya ganin ayyukanku nagari, su ɗaukaka Allah a ranar da zai ziyarce mu.
13 Therefore subject yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord’s sake: whether to the king, as supreme,
Saboda Ubangiji, ku yi biyayya ga kowace hukumar da aka kafa cikin mutane, ko ga sarki, a matsayi wanda ya fi iko,
14 or to governors, as sent by him for vengeance on evildoers and for praise to those who do well.
ko ga gwamnoni, waɗanda ya aika domin su hukunta masu laifi su kuma yabi masu aikata abin da yake daidai.
15 For this is the will of God, that by well-doing you should put to silence the ignorance of foolish men.
Gama nufin Allah ne cewa ta wurin yin nagarta za ku toshe jahilcin marasa azanci.
16 Live as free people, yet not using your freedom for a cloak of wickedness, but as bondservants of God.
Ku yi rayuwa kamar mutanen da aka’yantar, sai dai kada ku yi amfani da’yancinku a matsayin hujjar aikata mugunta; ku yi rayuwa kamar bayin Allah.
17 Honor all men. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the king.
Ku nuna ladabin da ya dace ga kowa. Ku ƙaunaci’yan’uwantakar masu bi, ku ji tsoron Allah, ku girmama sarki.
18 Servants, be in subjection to your masters with all respect, not only to the good and gentle, but also to the wicked.
Bayi, ku yi biyayya ga iyayengijinku da matuƙar ladabi, ba kawai ga waɗanda suke da kirki da masu sauƙinkai ba, amma har ga masu zafin rai ma.
19 For it is commendable if someone endures pain, suffering unjustly, because of conscience toward God.
Gama abin yabo ne in mutum ya yi haƙuri cikin zafin wahalar rashin adalci saboda yana sane da Allah.
20 For what glory is it if, when you sin, you patiently endure beating? But if when you do well, you patiently endure suffering, this is commendable with God.
Amma ina abin taƙama in kuka sha duka saboda kun yi laifi kuka kuma jimre? Sai dai in kuka sha wahala saboda yin nagari kuka kuma jimre, abin yabo ne a gaban Allah.
21 For you were called to this, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving you an example, that you should follow his steps,
Ga wannan ne aka kira ku, domin Kiristi ya sha wahala dominku, ya bar muku gurbin da ya kamata ku bi.
22 who did not sin, “neither was deceit found in his mouth.”
“Bai taɓa yin laifi ba sam, ba a kuma sami ƙarya a bakinsa ba.”
23 When he was cursed, he did not curse back. When he suffered, he did not threaten, but committed himself to him who judges righteously.
Sa’ad da suka zazzage shi, bai rama ba; sa’ad da ya sha wahala, bai yi barazana ba. A maimakon haka, ya miƙa kansa ga wanda yake shari’ar adalci.
24 He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live to righteousness. You were healed by his wounds.
Shi kansa ya ɗauki zunubanmu a jikinsa a kan itace, domin mu mutu ga zunubai mu kuma rayu ga adalci; ta wurin raunukansa ne kuka sami warkarwa.
25 For you were going astray like sheep; but now you have returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.
Gama dā kuna kama da tumakin da suka ɓace, amma yanzu kun dawo ga Makiyayi da kuma Mai lura da rayukanku.
