Luka 20
1 Ana nan wata rana, Yesu yana kan koyarwa a haikali da wa'azin bishara, sai shugaban firistoci da marubuta suka zo wurinsa da dattawa.
One day [during that week, Jesus] was teaching the people in the Temple [courtyard] and telling them [God’s] good message. As he was doing that, the chief priests, the men who taught the [Jewish] laws, and [other Jewish] elders came to him.
2 Suka yi magana, su na ce masa, “Gaya mana da wanne iko ne ka ke yin wadannan abubuwan? Ko wanene ya baka wannan ikon?”
They asked him, “Tell us, by what authority are you doing these things? Who authorized you to do things [like you did here yesterday]?”
3 Ya amsa sai ya ce masu, “Ni ma zan yi maku tambaya. Gaya mani game
He replied, “I will also ask you a question. Tell me,
4 da baptisman Yahaya. Daga sama take ko kuwa daga mutane ne?”
where did John [the Baptizer] get [his authority to] baptize [those who came to him]? [Did he get it] from God [MTY/EUP] or from people?”
5 Sai suka yi mahawara da junansu, suna cewa, “In mun ce, 'Daga sama,' zai ce, 'To don me ba ku ba da gaskiya gareshi ba?'
They discussed this among themselves. They said, “[If we(inc) say], ‘[It was] from God [MTY/EUP],’ he will say to us, ‘[Then] (you should have believed John’s [message]!/why did you not believe what John preached?) [RHQ]’
6 Amma in mun ce, 'Daga mutane ne,' dukan mutane za su jejjefe mu da duwatsu, domin sun tabbata a ransu Yahaya annabi ne.”
But if we say, ‘It was [from] people,’ the people [here] will [kill us by] throwing stones at us, because they [all] believe that John was a prophet [from God].”
7 Sai suka amsa cewa ba su san ko daga ina ne take ba.
So they replied, “We [(exc)] do not know where [John got his authority].”
8 Yesu yace masu, “To haka ni ma ba zan gaya maku ko da wanne iko nake yin wadannan abubuwan ba.”
Then Jesus said to them, “[Because you did not answer my question], I will not tell you who authorized me to do those things [here yesterday].”
9 Ya gaya wa mutane wannan misali, “Wani mutum ya dasa gonar inabi, ya ba wadansu manoma jinginarta, sai ya tafi wata kasa har ya dade.
Then Jesus told the people this parable [to illustrate what God would do to the Jews who rejected the former prophets and himself]: “A [certain] man planted a vineyard. He rented the vineyard to some men [to care for it and to give him some of the grapes in return]. Then he went to another country and stayed there several years.
10 Da lokacin girbi ya yi sai ya aiki wani bawansa zuwa wurin manoman, saboda su bashi daga cikin anfanin gonar. Amma manoman suka doke shi, sai suka kore shi hannu wofi.
When [the vines started producing] grapes, he sent a servant to the men who were taking care of the vineyard. He expected that they would give him some of the grapes that the vineyard had produced. But [after the servant arrived], they beat him and they did not give him any grapes. They [just] sent him away.
11 Ya aike wani bawa kuma sai suka daddoke shi, suka kunyatar da shi, suka kore shi hannu wofi.
[Later], [the owner] sent another servant. But they beat him and mistreated him [also]. They sent him away without giving him any grapes.
12 Ya kuma sake aike na uku suka yi masa rauni, suka jefar da shi a waje.
[Still later, the owner] sent another servant. That one they wounded and threw him out [of the vineyard].
13 Sai mai gonar inabin ya ce, 'Me zan yi? Zan aiki kaunattacen dana. Watakila zasu ba shi daraja.'
So the owner of the vineyard thought to himself, ‘(I do not know what to do!/What shall I do?) [RHQ]’ [Then he had an idea. He thought to himself], ‘I will send my son, [whom I] love [very much]. Perhaps they will respect him [and give him my share of the grapes].’
14 Amma sa'adda manoman suka gan shi, suka yi shawara a tsakaninsu, cewa, 'Wannan ne magajin. Bari mu kashe shi, saboda gadon ya zama namu.'
[So he sent his son], but when the men who were caring for the vineyard saw him [coming], they said to each other, ‘Here [comes] the man who will [some day] inherit [the vineyard]. Let’s kill him so that this vineyard will be ours!’
15 Suka jefar da shi waje daga gonar, suka kashe shi. Menene ubangijin gonar inabin zai yi da su?
So they dragged him outside the vineyard and they killed him. So (I will tell you what the owner of the vineyard will do to them!/do you know what the owner of the vineyard will do to them?) [RHQ]
16 Zai zo ya halakar da wadannan manoma, sai ya ba wadansu gonar.” Da suka ji wannan, suka ce, “Allah ya sawake!”
He will come and kill those men who were taking care of the vineyard. Then he will arrange for other people to take care of it.” When the people listening to Jesus heard that, they said, “[We would] not do anything like those wicked men did!”
17 Amma Yesu ya kalle su, sai yace, “Menene ma'anar wannan nassi? 'Dutsen da magina suka ki, an mayar da shi kan kusurwa'?
But Jesus looked directly at them and said, “You can say that, [but think about] the meaning of these words that are written {which [a prophet] wrote} [RHQ] [in the Scriptures], The men who were building a house rejected a certain stone. But others put that same stone in its proper place, and it has become the most important stone in the building [MET].
18 Duk wanda ya fadi kan dutsen zai farfashe. Amma duk wanda dutsen ya fadi a kansa, zai rugurguza shi.”
[That stone represents me, the Messiah], and those who reject me are [like people who fall on this stone]. Everyone who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces {This stone will break to pieces everyone who falls on it}, and it will crush anyone on whom it falls.”
19 Sai marubutan da manyan firistocin suka so su kama shi a wannan sa'a, domin sun sani ya yi wannan misali a kansu ne. Amma sun ji tsoron mutane.
The chief priests and the men who taught the [Jewish] laws realized that he was accusing them when he told the parable [about what those wicked men did]. So they immediately tried to find a way to seize [MTY] him, but [they did not seize him, because] they were afraid of [what] the people [there would do if they did that].
20 Suna fakonsa, suka aiki magewaya, wadanda suke kamar masu adalci, saboda su sami kuskure cikin maganarsa, don su mika shi ga hukumci da kuma ikon gwamna.
So they watched him carefully. They also hired (spies/secret agents) who pretended to be sincere. [But] they really wanted to get him to say something for [which they could accuse] him. They wanted to be able to turn him over to the authority of the governor [of the province. But they also knew that the Jews were disgusted with having to pay taxes to the government].
21 Suka tambaye shi, cewa, “Malam, mun sani da cewa kana fada da koyar da abin ke daidai, kuma ba wanda yake cusa maka ra'ayi, amma kana koyar da gaskiya game da hanyar Allah.
[So] one of them asked Jesus, “Teacher, we [(exc)] know that you [(sg)] speak and teach what is right. You tell the truth even if important people do not like it. You teach truthfully what God wants us to do.
22 Wai shin doka ne mu biya haraji ga Kaisar, ko babu?”
[So tell us what you think about this matter]: Is it right that we pay taxes to the Roman government [MTY], or not?”
23 Amma Yesu ya gane makircinsu, sai ya ce masu,
But Jesus knew that they were trying to trick him [to get him into trouble, either with the Jews, who hated to pay those taxes, or with the Roman government]. So he said to them,
24 “Nuna mani dinari. Sifar wanene da kuma rubutun wanene akan sa?” Suka ce, “Na Kaisar ne.”
“Show me a [Roman] coin. [Then tell me] whose picture is on it. And [tell me whose] name is on it.” They [showed him a coin and] said, “It has the picture and name of Caesar, [the head of the Roman government].”
25 Sai ya ce masu, “To sai ku ba Kaisar abin da ke na Kaisar, ku kuma ba Allah, abin da ke na Allah.”
He said to them, “In that case, give to the government [MTY] what they [require], and give to God what he [requires].”
26 Marubutan da manyan firistocin ba su sami abin zargi cikin maganarsa, a gaban mutane ba. Suka yi mamakin amsar sa, ba su kuma ce komai ba.
While the people were there, the [spies] were unable to find fault with him for what he said. And they were amazed at his answer. So they said nothing.
27 Sa'adda wadansu Sadukiyawa suka zo wurinsa, wadan da suka ce babu tashin mattatu,
Some Sadducees came to [Jesus]. They are a Jewish sect who do not believe that people will become alive again after they die.
28 suka tambaye shi, cewa, “Malam, Musa ya rubuta mana cewa idan dan'uwan mutum ya mutu, mai mace kuma ba shi da yaro, sai dan'uwansa ya auri matar, ya samar wa dan'uwansa yaro.
They [wanted to] ask [Jesus] a question [in order to discredit the idea that dead people will live again]. One of them said [to Jesus], “Teacher, Moses wrote for us [Jews] about situations where a man who has a wife but no children. If the man dies, his brother should marry the [dead man’s] widow so that she can have a child by him. People [will consider] that the child is the descendant of the man [who died], [and in that way the dead man will have descendants].
29 Akwai 'yan'uwa guda bakwai kuma na farin ya yi aure, sai ya mutu babu da,
Well, there were seven brothers in one family. The oldest one married, but he and his wife did not bear any children. Later he died.
30 haka ma na biyun.
The second [brother followed this law and married the widow, but the same thing happened to him].
31 Na ukun ya aure ta, haka nan na bakwai ma bai bar yaya ba, har suka mutu.
Then the third [brother] married her, [but the same thing happened again]. All seven [brothers, one by one, married that woman], [but] they had no children, and [one by one] they died.
32 Daga baya sai matar ma ta mutu.
Afterwards, the woman died, too.
33 To a ranar tashin mattatu, matar wa za ta zama? Domin duka bakwai din sun aure ta.”
Therefore, [if it is true that there will be a time] when dead people will become alive again, whose wife [do you think that woman] will be [then]? ([Keep in mind that she was married to all seven brothers!/It will be impossible to decide because] she was married to all seven brothers!) [RHQ]”
Jesus replied to them, “Men who live here in this world take wives, or are given wives [by their parents] {their [parents] choose wives [for them]}. (aiōn g165)
35 Amma wadanda aka ga cancantarsu a waccan tsara, sun isa su sami tashin mattatu, ba za suyi aure ko a aurar da su ba. (aiōn g165)
But the men whom God considers worthy of [being in heaven after] they become alive again will not be married. (aiōn g165)
36 Gama ba za su mutu kuma ba, domin suna daidai da mala'iku kuma su 'ya'yan Allah ne, da shike su 'ya'yan tashin matattu ne.
[You need to know also that] they cannot die any more, because they will be [immortal] [SIM] like angels. [The fact that God has caused] them to be alive again [will show] that they are God’s children.
37 Amma batun tashi matattu, ko Musa ma ya nuna wannan, a cikin jeji, inda ya kira Ubangiji, Allah na Ibrahim da kuma Allah na Ishaku da Allah na Yakubu.
But [as for people] becoming alive again after they die, Moses wrote something about that. In the place where [he wrote about] the [burning] bush, he mentions the Lord as being the God whom Abraham [worships] and the God whom Isaac [worships] and the God whom Jacob [worships].
38 Yanzu shi ba Allahn matattu ba ne, amma na masu rai, saboda duka suna raye a wurinsa.”
It is not dead people who worship God. It is living people who worship him. [Abraham, Isaac and Jacob died long before Moses lived, but God said that they were still worshipping him, so we(inc) know their spirits were still alive]! All [people] whose [spirits] are alive [again after they die continue to live to honor God]!”
39 Wadansu marubuta suka amsa, “Malam, ka amsa da kyau.”
Some of the men who taught the [Jewish] laws replied, “Teacher, you [(sg)] have answered very well!”
40 Gama ba su sake yi masa wadansu tambayoyi ba.
After that, they no longer dared to ask him any more questions [like that to try to trap him].
41 Yesu ya ce masu, “Yaya suke cewa Almasihu dan Dauda ne?
Then Jesus said to them, “I will show you (OR, prove to you) that people [are wrong who] say that the Messiah is [merely] a descendant of [King] David! [RHQ]
42 Gama Dauda da kansa ya ce a cikin littafin Zabura, Ubangiji ya ce wa Ubangiji na, 'Zauna a hannun dama na,
Because David himself wrote [about the Messiah] in the book of Psalms, God said to my Lord, Sit [here beside me] on my right, [where I will highly honor you(sg)] [MTY].
43 sai na maida makiyanka a karkashin tafin sawunka.'
[Sit here] while I completely defeat your enemies.
44 Dauda ya kira Kristi 'Ubangiji', to ta yaya ya zama dan Dauda?”
King David calls [the Messiah] ‘[my] Lord’! So ([the Messiah] cannot be [just someone] descended from [King] David!/how can the Messiah be [just] someone descended from [King] David?) [RHQ] [What I just said proves that he is much greater than David, isn’t that right]?”
45 Dukan mutane suna ji ya ce wa almajiransa,
While all the [other] people were listening, [Jesus] said to his disciples,
46 “Ku yi hankali da marubuta, wadanda suna son tafiya da manyan riguna, suna kuma son a gaishe su a cikin kasuwanni, da mayan wuraren zama a cikin majami'u, da kuma manyan wurare a wurin bukukkuwa.
“Beware that [you do not act like] the men who teach our [Jewish] laws. They like to put on long robes and walk around [to make people think that they are very important]. [They] also like [people to] greet them [respectfully] in the marketplaces. They like [to sit in] the most important places in the Jewish meeting places. At dinner parties [they like to sit in] the seats where the most honored people sit.
47 Suna kuma kwace wa gwamraye gidaje, suna kuma badda kama ta wurin yin doguwar addu'a. Wadannan za su sha hukumci mai girma.”
They swindle [MET] the houses [and property] of widows. [Then] they pretend they are good, as they pray [long] prayers [publicly. God] will [certainly] punish them very severely.”
