2 Corinthians 3
1 Doe we begin to praise our selues againe? or neede we as some other, epistles of recommendation vnto you, or letters of recommendation from you?
Muna fara sake yabon kanmu ne? Ba mu bukatar wasikun shaida daga gare ku ko zuwa gare ku, kamar wadansu mutane, ko ba haka ba?
2 Yee are our epistle, written in our hearts, which is vnderstand, and read of all men,
Ku da kanku kune wasikar shaidarmu, wadda aka rubuta a zukatanmu, wadda Kuma dukan mutane suka sani suke kuma karantawa.
3 In that yee are manifest, to be the Epistle of Christ, ministred by vs, and written, not with yncke, but with the Spirite of the liuing God, not in tables of stone, but in fleshly tables of the heart.
Kuma kun nuna ku wasika ne daga Almasihu, wadda muka isar. Ba da tawada aka rubuta ta ba amma da Ruhun Allah mai rai. Ba bisa allunan duwatsu aka rubuta ta ba, amma bisa allunan zukatan mutane.
4 And such trust haue we through Christ to God:
Gama wannan ne gabagadin da muke da shi cikin Allah ta wurin Almasihu.
5 Not that we are sufficient of our selues, to thinke any thing, as of our selues: but our sufficiencie is of God,
Ba mu da wata gwanintar kanmu da za mu yi takamar wani abu ya zo daga gare mu. Maimakon haka, gwanintar mu daga Allah take.
6 Who also hath made vs able ministers of the Newe testament, not of the letter, but of the Spirite: for the letter killeth, but the Spirite giueth life.
Allah ne ya maishe mu kwararrun bayi na sabon alkawari. Wannan alkawari ne ba na rubutu ba amma na Ruhu. Gama rubutu kisa yake yi, amma Ruhu rai yake bayarwa.
7 If then the ministration of death written with letters and ingrauen in stones, was glorious, so that the children of Israel coulde not beholde the face of Moses, for the glorie of his countenance (which glorie is done away.)
To hidimar da ta haifar da mutuwa- wadda aka rubuta bisa duwatsu- ta zo cikin irin wannan daukaka da har Israila ba su iya kallon fuskar Musa kai tsaye ba. Wannan kuwa saboda daukakar da ke fuskarsa ne, daukaka mai shudewa.
8 Howe shall not the ministration of the Spirite be more glorious?
Ina misalin girman daukakar hidimar da Ruhu ke yi?
9 For if the ministerie of condemnation was glorious, much more doeth the ministration of righteousnesse exceede in glorie.
Gama idan hidimar kayarwa tana da daukaka, ina misalin yalwatar daukaka da hidimar adalchi za ta yi!
10 For euen that which was glorified, was not glorified in this point, that is, as touching the exceeding glorie.
Babu shakka, abin da aka maishe shi mai daukaka a da, ba ya da sauran daukaka a wannan fanni, saboda irin daukakar da ta zarce shi.
11 For if that which should be abolished, was glorious, much more shall that which remaineth, be glorious.
To idan har mai shudewar nan ya na da daukaka, ina misalin daukakar da abu na dindindin zai samu!
12 Seeing then that we haue such trust, we vse great boldnesse of speach.
Dashike muna da wannan tabbaci, muna da gabagadi sosai.
13 And we are not as Moses, which put a vaile vpon his face, that the children of Israel should not looke vnto the ende of that which should be abolished.
Ba kamar Musa muke ba wanda ya sa mayafi ya rufe fuskarsa, ta yadda mutanen Isra'ila basu iya kallon karshen daukaka mai shudewa ba kai tsaye.
14 Therefore their mindes are hardened: for vntill this day remaineth the same couering vntaken away in the reading of the olde Testament, which vaile in Christ is put away.
Amma tunaninsu ya zama a rufe. Har yau kuwa mayafin na nan sa'adda ake karanta tsohon alkawari. Ba a bude shi ba, saboda a cikin Almasihu ne kadai ake kawar da shi.
15 But euen vnto this day, whe Moses is read, the vaile is laid ouer their hearts.
Amma har yau, duk lokacin da ake karanta littafin Musa, akwai mayafi shimfide a zukatansu.
16 Neuertheles when their heart shall be turned to the Lord, the vaile shalbe taken away.
Amma sa'adda mutum ya juyo wurin Ubangiji, an kawar da mayafin.
17 Nowe the Lord is the Spirite, and where the Spirite of the Lord is, there is libertie.
To Ubangiji shine Ruhun. Inda Ruhun Ubangiji yake, akwai 'yanci.
18 But we al behold as in a mirrour the glory of the Lord with open face, and are changed into the same image, from glorie to glorie, as by the Spirit of the Lord.
Dukan mu yanzu, da fuskoki marasa mayafi, muna ganin daukakar Ubangiji. Muna samun sakewa zuwa cikin irin wannan daukaka, daga wannan mataki na daukaka zuwa wani matakin, kamar dai daga wurin Ubangiji, wanda shine Ruhun.
