1 Kings 2
1 As the time drew near for David to die, he charged his son Solomon,
Da lokacin mutuwar Dawuda ya yi kusa, sai ya gargaɗe Solomon ɗansa, ya ce,
2 “I am about to go the way of all the earth. So be strong and prove yourself a man.
“Ina gab da bin hanyar da kowa a duniya zai bi. Saboda haka ka yi ƙarfin hali, ka nuna kanka namiji,
3 And keep the charge of the LORD your God to walk in His ways and to keep His statutes, commandments, ordinances, and decrees, as is written in the Law of Moses, so that you may prosper in all you do and wherever you turn,
ka kiyaye abin da Ubangiji Allahnka yake bukata. Yi tafiya a hanyoyinsa, ka kiyaye ƙa’idodi, da umarnai, da dokoki, da kuma farillansa, kamar yadda suke a rubuce a Dokar Musa, don ka yi nasara a cikin kome da za ka yi, da kuma inda za ka tafi.
4 and so that the LORD may fulfill His promise to me: ‘If your descendants take heed to walk faithfully before Me with all their heart and soul, you will never fail to have a man on the throne of Israel.’
Ubangiji kuwa zai kiyaye alkawarinsa gare ni da ya ce, ‘In zuriyarka suka lura da yadda suke rayuwa, in kuma suka yi tafiya da aminci a gabana da dukan zuciyarsu, da kuma dukan ransu, ba za ka kāsa samun mutum a kujerar sarautar Isra’ila ba.’
5 Moreover, you know what Joab son of Zeruiah did to me—what he did to Abner son of Ner and Amasa son of Jether, the two commanders of the armies of Israel. He killed them in peacetime to avenge the blood of war. He stained with the blood of war the belt around his waist and the sandals on his feet.
“Yanzu fa, kai kanka ka san abin da Yowab ɗan Zeruhiya ya yi mini. Abin da ya yi wa shugabanni biyun nan na mayaƙan Isra’ila, wato, Abner ɗan Ner, da Amasa ɗan Yeter. Ya kashe su, ya kuma zub da jininsu a lokacin salama sai ka ce a fage yaƙi, da wannan jini ya yi ɗamara a gindinsa, ya kuma sa takalma a ƙafafunsa.
6 So act according to your wisdom, and do not let his gray head go down to Sheol in peace. (Sheol h7585)
Ka yi da shi gwargwadon hikimarka, amma kada ka bari yă gangara kabari da furfura cikin salama. (Sheol h7585)
7 But show loving devotion to the sons of Barzillai the Gileadite, and let them be among those who eat at your table, because they stood by me when I fled from your brother Absalom.
“Amma ka yi alheri ga’ya’yan Barzillai mutumin Gileyad, ka sa su kasance a cikin waɗanda suke ci a teburinka. Sun goyi bayana sa’ad da nake gudu daga ɗan’uwanka Absalom.
8 Keep an eye on Shimei the son of Gera, the Benjamite from Bahurim who is with you. He called down bitter curses against me on the day I went to Mahanaim, but when he came down to meet me at the Jordan, I swore to him by the LORD: ‘I will never put you to the sword.’
“Ka tuna, akwai kuma Shimeyi ɗan Gera, mutumin Benyamin daga Bahurim, wanda ya yi ta yin mini muguwar la’ana a ranar da na tafi Mahanayim. Sa’ad da ya gangara ya same ni a Urdun, na rantse masa da sunan Ubangiji na ce, ‘Ba zan kashe ka da takobi ba.’
9 Now therefore, do not hold him guiltless, for you are a wise man. You know what you ought to do to him to bring his gray head down to Sheol in blood.” (Sheol h7585)
Amma yanzu, kada ka ɗauke shi marar laifi. Kai mutum ne mai hikima; za ka san abin da za ka yi da shi. Ka kawo furfuransa zuwa kabari da jini.” (Sheol h7585)
10 Then David rested with his fathers and was buried in the City of David.
Sa’an nan Dawuda ya huta tare da kakanninsa. Sai aka binne shi a Birnin Dawuda.
11 The length of David’s reign over Israel was forty years—seven years in Hebron and thirty-three years in Jerusalem.
Ya yi sarauta shekaru arba’in a bisa Isra’ila. Wato, shekaru bakwai a Hebron da kuma talatin da uku a Urushalima.
12 So Solomon sat on the throne of his father David, and his kingdom was firmly established.
Solomon kuwa ya zauna a kan kujerar sarautar mahaifinsa Dawuda, mulkinsa kuwa ya kahu sosai.
13 Now Adonijah son of Haggith went to Bathsheba the mother of Solomon, and she asked, “Do you come in peace?” “Yes, in peace,” he replied.
To, sai Adoniya, ɗan Haggit ya tafi wurin Batsheba mahaifiyar Solomon. Ita kuwa ta tambaye shi ta ce, “Lafiya?” Ya amsa ya ce, “I, lafiya.”
14 Then he said, “I have something to tell you.” “Say it,” she answered.
Sa’an nan ya ƙara da cewa, “Ina da ɗan wani abin da zan faɗa miki.” Ta ce, “Faɗa.”
15 “You know that the kingship was mine,” he said. “All Israel expected that I should reign, but the kingship has turned to my brother, for it has come to him from the LORD.
Sai ya ce, “Kamar yadda kika sani, mulkin nan nawa ne. Dukan Isra’ila suna ɗaukana a matsayin sarki. Amma abubuwa suka canja, sai mulkin ya koma ga ɗan’uwana; gama ya zo masa daga Ubangiji ne.
16 So now I have just one request of you; do not deny me.” “State your request,” she told him.
Yanzu ina da roƙo guda da zan yi gare ki. Kada ki hana mini.” Ta ce, “Sai ka faɗa.”
17 Adonijah replied, “Please speak to King Solomon, since he will not turn you down. Let him give me Abishag the Shunammite as my wife.”
Sai ya ci gaba, “In kin yarda, ki yi magana da Sarki Solomon, gama ba zai ƙi jinki ba, ki ce yă ba ni yarinyan nan, Abishag, mutuniyar Shunam, tă zama matata.”
18 “Very well,” Bathsheba replied. “I will speak to the king for you.”
Batsheba ta ce, “Da kyau, zan yi magana da sarki dominka.”
19 So Bathsheba went to King Solomon to speak to him for Adonijah. The king stood up to greet her, bowed to her, and sat down on his throne. Then the king had a throne brought for his mother, who sat down at his right hand.
Sai Batsheba ta tafi wurin Sarki Solomon don tă yi masa magana a kan Adoniya. Sarki ya miƙe tsaye don yă sadu da ita, ya rusuna mata, ya kuma zauna a kujerar sarautarsa. Ya sa aka kawo wa mahaifiyar sarki kujerar sarauta, ta kuwa zauna a gefen damansa.
20 “I have just one small request of you,” she said. “Do not deny me.” “Make your request, my mother,” the king replied, “for I will not deny you.”
Ta ce, “Ina da ɗan roƙon da zan nema ka yi mini. Ina fata ba za ka hana ni ba.” Sai sarki ya amsa ya ce, “Mahaifiyata, sai ki faɗa in ji, ba zan hana miki ba.”
21 So Bathsheba said, “Let Abishag the Shunammite be given to your brother Adonijah as his wife.”
Saboda haka sai ta ce, “Ka sa a ba wa ɗan’uwanka Adoniya, Abishag mutuniyar Shunam tă zama matarsa.”
22 King Solomon answered his mother, “Why do you request Abishag the Shunammite for Adonijah? Since he is my older brother, you might as well request the kingdom for him and for Abiathar the priest and for Joab son of Zeruiah!”
Sarki Solomon ya amsa wa mahaifiyarsa ya ce, “Me ya sa kika roƙar wa Adoniya Abishag mutuniyar Shunam kawai? Ki ma sa a ba shi mulkin mana. Ai, shi yayana ne. I, ki roƙa dominsa, da domin Abiyatar firist, da kuma domin Yowab ɗan Zeruhiya mana!”
23 Then King Solomon swore by the LORD: “May God punish me, and ever so severely, if Adonijah has not made this request at the expense of his life.
Sai Sarki Solomon ya rantse da sunan Ubangiji ya ce, “Bari Allah yă yi mini hukunci mai tsanani, idan ban sa Adoniya ya biya wannan roƙo da ransa ba!
24 And now, as surely as the LORD lives—the One who established me, who set me on the throne of my father David, and who founded for me a dynasty as He promised—surely Adonijah shall be put to death today!”
Yanzu kuwa, muddin Ubangiji yana a raye, shi wanda ya kafa ni sosai a kan kujerar sarautar mahaifina Dawuda, ya kuma kafa mini mulki kamar yadda ya yi alkawari; za a kashe Adoniya yau!”
25 So King Solomon sent the order to Benaiah son of Jehoiada, who struck down Adonijah, and he died.
Saboda haka Sarki Solomon ya umarci Benahiya ɗan Yehohiyada yă kashe Adoniya; ya kuwa kashe shi.
26 Then the king said to Abiathar the priest, “Go back to your fields in Anathoth. Even though you deserve to die, I will not put you to death at this time, since you carried the ark of the Lord GOD before my father David, and you suffered through all that my father suffered.”
Ga Abiyatar firist kuwa sarki ya ce, “Tafi gonarka a Anatot. Ka cancanci ka mutu, amma ba zan kashe ka yanzu ba, domin ka ɗauki akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka a gaban mahaifina Dawuda, ka kuma sha wahala tare mahaifina.”
27 So Solomon banished Abiathar from the priesthood of the LORD and thus fulfilled the word that the LORD had spoken at Shiloh against the house of Eli.
Saboda haka Solomon ya cire Abiyatar daga aikin firist na Ubangiji, ya cika maganar da Ubangiji ya yi a Shilo game da gidan Eli.
28 When the news reached Joab, who had conspired with Adonijah but not with Absalom, he fled to the tent of the LORD and took hold of the horns of the altar.
Sa’ad da labarin ya kai wurin Yowab, wanda ya haɗa kai da Adoniya, ko da yake bai haɗa kai da Absalom ba, sai ya gudu zuwa tentin Ubangiji, ya kama ƙahonin bagade ya riƙe.
29 It was reported to King Solomon: “Joab has fled to the tent of the LORD and is now beside the altar.” So Solomon sent Benaiah son of Jehoiada, saying, “Go, strike him down!”
Aka faɗa wa Sarki Solomon cewa Yowab ya gudu zuwa tentin Ubangiji, yana kuma kusa da bagade. Sai Solomon ya umarci Benahiya ɗan Yehohiyada ya ce, “Je ka kashe shi!”
30 And Benaiah entered the tent of the LORD and said to Joab, “The king says, ‘Come out!’” But Joab replied, “No, I will die here.” So Benaiah relayed the message to the king, saying, “This is how Joab answered me.”
Sai Benahiya ya shiga tentin Ubangiji ya ce wa Yowab, “Sarki ya ce, ‘Ka fita!’” Amma Yowab ya amsa ya ce, “A’a, a nan zan mutu.” Sai Benahiya ya ce wa sarki, “Ga yadda Yowab ya amsa mini.”
31 And the king replied, “Do just as he says. Strike him down and bury him, and so remove from me and from the house of my father the innocent blood that Joab shed.
Sai sarki ya umarci Benahiya ya ce, “Yi kamar yadda ya faɗa. Ka kashe shi, ka kuma binne shi, ka wanke ni da gidan mahaifina daga laifin jini marasa laifin da Yowab ya zubar.
32 The LORD will bring his bloodshed back upon his own head, for without the knowledge of my father David he struck down two men more righteous and better than he when he put to the sword Abner son of Ner, commander of Israel’s army, and Amasa son of Jether, commander of Judah’s army.
Ubangiji zai sāka masa saboda jinin da ya zubar, domin ba da sanin mahaifina Dawuda ne ya fāɗa wa mutum biyun nan da takobi ba. Dukansu biyu, Abner ɗan Ner, shugaban mayaƙan Isra’ila, da Amasa ɗan Yeter, shugaban mayaƙan Yahuda, mutane ne mafi kyau da kuma mafi adalci fiye da shi.
33 Their blood will come back upon the heads of Joab and his descendants forever; but for David, his descendants, his house, and his throne, there shall be peace from the LORD forever.”
Bari alhakin jininsu yă koma a kan Yowab da kuma zuriyarsa har abada. Amma bari salamar Ubangiji tă kasance a kan Dawuda da zuriyarsa, da gidansa, da kuma mulkinsa, har abada.”
34 So Benaiah son of Jehoiada went up, struck down Joab, and killed him. He was buried at his own home in the wilderness.
Sai Benahiya ɗan Yehohiyada ya haura ya bugi Yowab, ya kashe shi, ya kuwa binne shi a gidansa a ƙauye.
35 And the king appointed Benaiah son of Jehoiada in Joab’s place over the army, and he appointed Zadok the priest in Abiathar’s place.
Sai sarki ya sa Benahiya ɗan Yehohiyada ya zama shugaba a bisa mayaƙa a matsayin Yowab, ya kuma sa Zadok firist a wurin Abiyatar.
36 Then the king summoned Shimei and said to him, “Build a house for yourself in Jerusalem and live there, but do not go anywhere else.
Sa’an nan sarki ya aika aka kawo Shimeyi, ya kuma ce masa, “Ka gina wa kanka gida a nan a Urushalima, ka zauna a ciki, kada ka kuskura ka tafi wani wuri.
37 On the day you go out and cross the Kidron Valley, know for sure that you will die; your blood will be on your own head.”
Gama ran da ka fita, ka haye Kwarin Kidron, ka tabbata za ka mutu, alhakin jininka kuwa zai koma kanka.”
38 “The sentence is fair,” Shimei replied. “Your servant will do as my lord the king has spoken.” And Shimei lived in Jerusalem for a long time.
Shimeyi ya amsa wa sarki ya ce, “Abin da ka faɗa yana da kyau. Bawanka zai yi kamar yadda ranka yă daɗe sarki, ya faɗa.” Shimeyi kuwa ya yi zama a Urushalima na dogon lokaci.
39 After three years, however, two of Shimei’s slaves ran away to Achish son of Maacah, king of Gath. And Shimei was told, “Look, your slaves are in Gath.”
Amma bayan shekaru uku, biyu daga cikin bayin Shimeyi suka gudu zuwa wurin Akish ɗan Ma’aka, sarkin Gat. Aka faɗa wa Shimeyi cewa, “Bayinka suna a Gat.”
40 So Shimei saddled his donkey and set out to Achish at Gath in search of his slaves, and he brought them back from Gath.
Da jin haka, sai ya tashi ya shimfiɗa wa jakinsa abin zama, ya hau, ya tafi Gat wurin Akish domin neman bayinsa. Shimeyi kuwa ya dawo da su gida daga Gat.
41 When Solomon was told that Shimei had gone from Jerusalem to Gath and had returned,
Da aka faɗa wa Solomon cewa Shimeyi ya bar Urushalima zuwa Gat, har ya dawo.
42 the king summoned Shimei and said to him, “Did I not make you swear by the LORD and warn you, ‘On the day you leave and go elsewhere, know for sure that you will die’? And you told me, ‘The sentence is fair; I will comply.’
Sai sarki ya aika a kawo Shimeyi, ya ce masa, “Ban sa ka rantse da sunan Ubangiji, na kuma ja maka kunne cewa, ‘A ranar da ka kuskura ka bar nan ka tafi wani wuri, ka tabbata za ka mutu ba’? A lokacin ka ce mini, ‘Abin da ka faɗa yana da kyau. Zan kuwa kiyaye.’
43 So why have you not kept your oath to the LORD and the command that I gave you?”
To, me ya sa ba ka kiyaye rantsuwar da ka yi ga Ubangiji, ka kuma yi biyayya da umarnin da na ba ka ba?”
44 The king also said, “You know in your heart all the evil that you did to my father David. Therefore the LORD will bring your evil back upon your head.
Sarki ya ce wa Shimeyi, “Ka sani a zuciyarka dukan muguntar da ka yi wa mahaifina Dawuda. Yanzu Ubangiji zai sāka maka saboda muguntarka.
45 But King Solomon will be blessed and David’s throne will remain secure before the LORD forever.”
Amma za a yi wa Sarki Solomon albarka, sarautar Dawuda kuma za tă kasance a tsare a gaban Ubangiji har abada.”
46 Then the king commanded Benaiah son of Jehoiada, and he went out and struck Shimei down, and he died. Thus the kingdom was firmly established in the hand of Solomon.
Sai sarki ya umarci Benahiya ɗan Yehohiyada, yă fita, yă bugi Shimeyi, yă kashe shi. Ya kuwa kashe shi. Mulki kuwa ya kahu sosai a hannun Solomon.
