1 Samuel 6
1 And the ark of Jehovah was in the country of the Philistines seven months.
Lokacin da akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji ya kai wata bakwai a ƙasar Filistiyawa.
2 And the Philistines called for the priests and the diviners, saying, What shall we do with the ark of Jehovah? show us wherewith we shall send it to its place.
Filistiyawa suka kira firistoci da bokaye suka ce, “Me za mu yi da akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji? Ku gaya mana yadda za mu komar da shi inda ya fito.”
3 And they said, If ye send away the ark of the God of Israel, send it not empty; but by all means return him a trespass-offering: then ye shall be healed, and it shall be known to you why his hand is not removed from you.
Suka ce, in za ku komar da akwatin alkawarin Allah na Isra’ila kada ku komar da shi hannu wofi; amma ku tabbata kun aika da hadaya don laifi zuwa wurinsa. Sa’an nan za ku warke ku kuma san dalilin da ya sa bai cire hannunsa a kanku ba.
4 Then said they, What shall be the trespass-offering which we shall return to him? And they said, Five golden tumors, and five golden mice, [according to] the number of the lords of the Philistines; for one plague was on you all, and on your lords.
Filistiyawa suka ce, “Wace irin hadaya don laifi za mu aika masa?” Suka ce, “Marurai biyar na zinariya da ɓeraye biyar na zinariya bisa ga yawan sarakunan Filistiyawa. Saboda annoba iri ɗaya ce ta buga ku da shugabanninku.
5 Wherefore ye shall make images of your tumors, and images of your mice that mar the land; and ye shall give glory unto the God of Israel: peradventure he will lighten his hand from off you, and from off your gods, and from off your land.
Ku yi siffofin marurai da na ɓeraye da suke hallaka gari, ku ba da girma ga Allah na Isra’ila. Wataƙila zai ɗauke hukuncinsa daga gare ku da allolinku da kuma ƙasarku.
6 Wherefore then do ye harden your hearts, as the Egyptians and Pharaoh hardened their hearts? When he had wrought wonderfully among them, did they not let the people go, and they departed?
Me ya sa kun taurare kanku kamar yadda Masarawa da Fir’auna suka yi? Da ya ba su matsanancin wahala, ba su bar Isra’ilawa suka tafi hanyarsu ba?
7 Now therefore take and prepare you a new cart, and two milch kine, on which there hath come no yoke; and tie the kine to the cart, and bring their calves home from them;
“Yanzu fa ku shirya sabon keken shanu da shanu biyu masu ba wa’ya’yansu nono, waɗanda ba a taɓa sa musu karkiya ba. Ku daure keken shanu wa shanun, amma ku tsare’yan maruƙansu a gida.
8 and take the ark of Jehovah, and lay it upon the cart; and put the jewels of gold, which ye return him for a trespass-offering, in a coffer by the side thereof; and send it away, that it may go.
Ku ɗauki wani akwati ku sa siffofin zinariyan nan a ciki, waɗanda za su zama kyautai na shafen laifi, ku ajiye kusa da Akwati na UBANGIJI. Bayan haka sai ku sa keken shanun da akwatin a hanya, ku bar shi yă tafi.
9 And see; if it goeth up by the way of its own border to Beth-shemesh, then he hath done us this great evil: but if not, then we shall know that it is not his hand that smote us; it was a chance that happened to us.
Amma ku zuba ido ku ga in ya haura zuwa yankinsa, zuwa Bet-Shemesh, to, Ubangiji ne ya kawo mana babban masifar a kanmu. Amma in bai bi ta nan ba, za mu san cewa ba shi ne ya buge mu ba, tsautsayi ne kawai.”
10 And the men did so, and took two milch kine, and tied them to the cart, and shut up their calves at home;
Suka yi haka. Suka ɗauki shanun tatsa guda biyu suka ɗaura musu keken shanu, suka tsare’yan maruƙansu a gida.
11 and they put the ark of Jehovah upon the cart, and the coffer with the mice of gold and the images of their tumors.
Suka aza akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji a bisa keken shanun tare da akwatin siffofin ɓerayen zinariya da siffofin maruran.
12 And the kine took the straight way by the way to Beth-shemesh; they went along the highway, lowing as they went, and turned not aside to the right hand or to the left; and the lords of the Philistines went after them unto the border of Beth-shemesh.
Sai shanun suka miƙe zuwa Bet-Shemesh. Suka bi hanya daidai, ba su juya dama ko hagu ba. Shugabannin Filistiyawa suka bi har zuwa iyakar ƙasar Bet-Shemesh.
13 And they of Beth-shemesh were reaping their wheat harvest in the valley; and they lifted up their eyes, and saw the ark, and rejoiced to see it.
A lokacin kuwa mutanen Bet-Shemesh suna girbin alkamansu a kwari da suka ɗaga ido suka hangi akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji, sai suka yi farin ciki ganinsa.
14 And the cart came into the field of Joshua the Beth-shemite, and stood there, where there was a great stone: and they clave the wood of the cart, and offered up the kine for a burnt-offering unto Jehovah.
Keken shanun ya zo filin Yoshuwa a Bet-Shemesh ya tsaya a gefen wani babban dutse. Mutanen suka faskare keken shanun suka miƙa shanun hadaya ta ƙonawa ga Ubangiji.
15 And the Levites took down the ark of Jehovah, and the coffer that was with it, wherein the jewels of gold were, and put them on the great stone: and the men of Beth-shemesh offered burnt-offerings and sacrificed sacrifices the same day unto Jehovah.
Lawiyawa suka saukar da akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji tare da babban akwati mai siffofin zinariya na ɓeraye da marurai suka ajiye su a kan ƙaton dutse. A wannan rana mutanen Bet-Shemesh suka miƙa hadaya ta ƙonawa da waɗansu hadayu ga Ubangiji.
16 And when the five lords of the Philistines had seen it, they returned to Ekron the same day.
Shugabanni biyar na Filistiyawan nan suka ga duk abin da ya faru, suka koma zuwa Ekron a ranar.
17 And these are the golden tumors which the Philistines returned for a trespass-offering unto Jehovah: for Ashdod one, for Gaza one, for Ashkelon one, for Gath one, for Ekron one;
Waɗannan su ne siffofi marurai na zinariya waɗanda Filistiyawa suka aika domin miƙa hadaya don laifi ga Ubangiji, ɗaya domin Ashdod, ɗaya domin Gaza, ɗaya domin Ashkelon, ɗaya domin Gat, ɗaya kuma domin Ekron.
18 and the golden mice, according to the number of all the cities of the Philistines belonging to the five lords, both of fortified cities and of country villages, even unto the great stone, whereon they set down the ark of Jehovah, [which stone remaineth] unto this day in the field of Joshua the Beth-shemite.
Filistiyawa kuma suka aika da siffofin ɓeraye biyar na zinariya. Yawan ɓerayen sun yi daidai da yawan garuruwan sarakunan nan biyar na Filistiyawa. Garuruwan sun ƙunshi waɗanda aka gina katangar birni kewaye da su, da kuma ƙauyukansu. Babban dutsen da suka ajiye akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji, ya zama shaida har wa yau a filin Yoshuwa a Bet-Shemesh.
19 And he smote of the men of Beth-shemesh, because they had looked into the ark of Jehovah, he smote of the people seventy men, [and] fifty thousand men; and the people mourned, because Jehovah had smitten the people with a great slaughter.
Amma Allah ya kashe waɗansu mutum saba’in na mutanen Bet-Shemesh domin sun leƙa cikin akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji. Mutane kuwa suka yi makoki domin Ubangiji ya hallaka mutane da yawa.
20 And the men of Beth-shemesh said, Who is able to stand before Jehovah, this holy God? and to whom shall he go up from us?
Mutanen Bet-Shemesh suka yi tambaya suka ce, wa zai iya tsaya a gaban Ubangiji Allah Mai Tsarki? Wurin wa akwatin alkawari zai je daga nan?
21 And they sent messengers to the inhabitants of Kiriath-jearim, saying, The Philistines have brought back the ark of Jehovah; come ye down, and fetch it up to you.
Sai suka aiki manzanni zuwa Kiriyat Yeyarim suka ce, “Filistiyawa sun komo da akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji, ku zo ku ɗauka ku kai wajenku.”
