1 Samuel 25

1 When Samuel died, all Israel gathered to mourn for him; and they buried him at his home in Ramah. Then David set out and went down to the Wilderness of Paran.

Sama’ila ya rasu, sai dukan Isra’ila suka taru suka yi makoki saboda shi. Suka binne shi a gidansa a Rama. Sai Dawuda ya gangara zuwa cikin Jejin Faran.

2 Now there was a man in Maon whose business was in Carmel. He was a very wealthy man with a thousand goats and three thousand sheep, which he was shearing in Carmel.

A Mawon, akwai wani mutum wanda yake da dukiya a Karmel, mutumin mai arziki ne ƙwarai. Yana da awaki dubu ɗaya, da tumaki dubu uku waɗanda yake wa aski a Karmel.

3 His name was Nabal, and his wife’s name was Abigail. She was an intelligent and beautiful woman, but her husband, a Calebite, was harsh and evil in his dealings.

Ana ce da shi Nabal, sunan matarsa kuwa Abigiyel. Tana da hikima ga ta kuma kyakkyawa, amma mijinta mai rowa ne marar mutunci. Shi daga kabilar Kaleb ne.

4 While David was in the wilderness, he heard that Nabal was shearing sheep.

Lokacin da Dawuda yake a jeji, ya ji labari cewa Nabal yana askin tumaki.

5 So David sent ten young men and instructed them, “Go up to Nabal at Carmel. Greet him in my name

Sai ya zaɓi samari goma ya aike su wurin Nabal a Karmel su gaishe shi a madadinsa,

6 and say to him, ‘Long life to you, and peace to you and your house and to all that belongs to you.

su ce masa, “Ranka yă daɗe, ina maka fatan alheri, kai da gidanka da dukan abin da kake da shi!

7 Now I hear that it is time for shearing. When your shepherds were with us, we did not harass them, and nothing of theirs was missing the whole time they were in Carmel.

“Na ji cewa, yanzu lokacin askin tumaki ne. Sa’ad da makiyayanka suke tare da mu, ba mu cuce su ba, kuma duk zamansu a Karmel ba abin da yake nasu da ya ɓata.

8 Ask your young men, and they will tell you. So let my young men find favor with you, for we have come on the day of a feast. Please give whatever you can afford to your servants and to your son David.’”

Ka tambayi bayinka za su kuwa gaya maka. Saboda haka ka yi wa mutanena kirki, gama yau ranar biki ce. Ina roƙonka ka ba wa samarina, wato, bayinka, da ni ɗanka Dawuda, duk abin da kake iya ba su.”

9 When David’s young men arrived, they relayed all these words to Nabal on behalf of David. Then they waited.

Da mutanen Dawuda suka isa wurin Nabal, suka ba wa Nabal wannan saƙo a sunan Dawuda, sai suka jira.

10 But Nabal asked them, “Who is David? Who is this son of Jesse? Many servants these days are breaking away from their masters.

Nabal ya ce wa mutanen Dawuda, “Wane ne wannan Dawuda? Wane ne wannan ɗan Yesse? Yawancin bayi suna tayar wa iyayengijinsu a kwanakin nan.

11 Why should I take my bread and water and the meat I have slaughtered for my shearers, and give them to these men whose origin I do not know?”

Don me zan ɗauki burodina da ruwana, da kuma naman da na yanka saboda masu yin wa tumakina aski in ba mutanen da ban ma san inda suka fito ba?”

12 So David’s men turned around and went back, and they relayed to him all these words.

Mutanen Dawuda suka juya suka koma. Da suka iso sai suka faɗa wa Dawuda abin da Nabal ya ce.

13 And David said to his men, “Strap on your swords!” So David and all his men put on their swords, and about four hundred men followed David, while two hundred stayed with the supplies.

Dawuda ya ce wa mutanensa, “Kowa yă rataya takobinsa.” Sai duk suka yi haka. Dawuda kuma ya rataya nasa. Mutum wajen ɗari huɗu suka tafi tare da Dawuda, mutum ɗari biyu kuwa suka zauna suna gadin kayansu.

14 Meanwhile, one of Nabal’s young men informed Nabal’s wife Abigail, “Look, David sent messengers from the wilderness to greet our master, but he scolded them.

Ɗaya daga cikin bayin Nabal ya gaya wa Abigiyel matar Nabal cewa, “Dawuda ya aiko da bayinsa daga jeji su gai da maigida, amma maigida ya zazzage su.

15 Yet these men were very good to us. When we were in the field, we were not harassed, and nothing of ours went missing the whole time we lived among them.

Waɗannan mutane kuwa sun yi mana kirki ƙwarai, ba su ba mu wata wahala ba. Babu abu guda da ya ɓace mana dukan lokacin da muke tare da su.

16 They were a wall around us, both day and night, the whole time we were herding our sheep near them.

Dare da rana sun zama mana katanga kewaya da mu, a duk tsawon lokacin da muke kiwon tumakinmu kusa da su.

17 Now consider carefully what you must do, because disaster looms over our master and all his household. For he is such a scoundrel that nobody can speak to him!”

Ki yi nazari a kai, ki ga ko za ki iya yin wani abu, domin masifa yana nan rataye a wuyan maigidanmu da dukan iyalin gidansa. Shi mugun mutum ne wanda ba wani da zai iya yin masa magana.”

18 Then Abigail hurried and took two hundred loaves of bread, two skins of wine, five butchered sheep, five seahs of roasted grain, a hundred clusters of raisins, and two hundred cakes of figs. She loaded them on donkeys

Abigiyel ba tă ɓata lokaci ba. Ta ɗauki burodi guda ɗari biyu, da salkar ruwan inabi biyu da tumaki biyar da aka gyara, da soyayyen hatsi mudu biyar, da waina guda ɗari na’ya’yan inabi, da masa ɗari biyu na kauɗar ɓaure ta labta wa jakuna.

19 and said to her young men, “Go ahead of me. I will be right behind you.” But she did not tell her husband Nabal.

Sai ta ce wa bawanta, “Yi gaba, zan bi ka”. Amma ba tă gaya wa Nabal, mijinta ba.

20 As Abigail came riding her donkey into a mountain ravine, she saw David and his men coming down toward her, and she met them.

Da tana tafiya a kan jaki, ta kai gindin wani dutse ke nan, sai ga Dawuda da mutanensa suna gangarowa zuwa wajen da take. Sai ta tafi, ta sadu da su.

21 Now David had just finished saying, “In vain I have protected all that belonged to this man in the wilderness. Nothing that belongs to him has gone missing, yet he has paid me back evil for good.

Bai daɗe ba da Dawuda ya ce a ransa, “Ashe, a banza ne na yi ta lura da dukan abin da yake na mutumin nan a jeji, har ba abinsa da ya ɓace. Ga shi, ya rama mini alheri da mugunta.

22 May God punish David, and ever so severely, if I let one of Nabal’s men survive until morning.”

Bari Allah yă yi duk abin da ya ga dama da ni in na bar ko ɗaya daga mazan da suke da tare shi, gobe da safe.”

23 When Abigail saw David, she quickly got off the donkey, fell facedown, and bowed before him.

Da Abigiyel ta ga Dawuda, sai ta gaggauta ta sauka daga kan jaki, ta rusuna a gaban Dawuda da fuskarta har ƙasa.

24 She fell at his feet and said, “My lord, may the blame be on me alone, but please let your servant speak to you; hear the words of your servant.

Ta fāɗi a ƙafafunsa ta ce, “Bari laifin yă zama nawa, ranka yă daɗe. Ina roƙonka ka bar baiwarka ta yi magana, ka ji abin da baiwarka za tă ce.

25 My lord should pay no attention to this scoundrel Nabal, for he lives up to his name: His name means Fool, and folly accompanies him. I, your servant, did not see my lord’s young men whom you sent.

Kada ranka yă daɗe, yă kula da Nabal, mugun mutumin nan. Shi dai kamar sunansa ne, sunansa Wawa ne, kuma wawanci yana cikinsa. Amma ni baiwarka, ban ga mutanen da ranka yă daɗe ya aika ba.

26 Now, my lord, as surely as the LORD lives and you yourself live, the LORD has held you back from coming to bloodshed and avenging yourself with your own hand. May your enemies and those who seek harm for my lord be like Nabal.

Da yake yanzu, ya mai girma, Ubangiji ya hana ka zubar da jini da kuma ɗaukan wa kanka fansa, muddin Ubangiji yana raye, kai kuma kana a raye, bari maƙiyinka da dukan waɗanda suke niyya su cuci shugabana su zama kamar Nabal.

27 Now let this gift your servant has brought to my lord be given to the young men who follow you.

Bari kuma ka karɓi wannan kyautar da baiwarka ta kawo don samarin da suke binka.

28 Please forgive your servant’s offense, for the LORD will surely make a lasting dynasty for my lord, because he fights the LORD’s battles. May no evil be found in you as long as you live.

Ina roƙonka ka gafarta wa baiwarka laifinta gama tabbatacce Ubangiji zai ba shugabana dawwammamiyar sarauta, gama kana yin yaƙin Ubangiji ne. Kuma ba wani mugun abin da zai same ka muddin kana a raye.

29 And should someone pursue you and seek your life, then the life of my lord will be bound securely by the LORD your God in the bundle of the living. But He shall fling away the lives of your enemies like stones from a sling.

Ko da yake wani mutum yana fafaranka domin yă kashe ka, Ubangiji Allahnka zai kiyaye ranka. Amma za a wurgar da rayukan maƙiyanka kamar yadda ake wurga dutsen majajjawa.

30 When the LORD has done for my lord all the good He promised, and when He has appointed you ruler over Israel,

Sa’ad da Ubangiji ya cika kowane alherinsa da ya yi wa shugabana alkawari, ya kuma keɓe shi sarki a bisa Isra’ila,

31 then my lord will have no remorse or guilt of conscience over needless bloodshed and revenge. And when the LORD has dealt well with my lord, may you remember your maidservant.”

kada yă zama cewa zuciyarka ta ba ka laifi ko ka damu cewa kana da alhakin jini, kada ka yi ramuwa da kanka. Sa’ad da Ubangiji ya nuna maka alheri, ka tuna da ni, baiwarka.”

32 Then David said to Abigail, “Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, who sent you to meet me this day!

Dawuda ya ce wa Abigiyel, “Yabo ya tabbata ga Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila, wanda ya aiko ki don ki same ni yau.

33 Blessed is your discernment, and blessed are you, because today you kept me from bloodshed and from avenging myself by my own hand.

Bari Allah yă albarkace ki saboda hikima yanke hukuncinki da kuma hana ni zubar da jini da ɗauka wa kaina fansa da hannuna a wannan rana.

34 Otherwise, as surely as the LORD, the God of Israel, lives, who has restrained me from harming you, if you had not come quickly to meet me, then surely no male belonging to Nabal would have been left alive by morning light.”

Ubangiji, ya hana ni in yi miki ɓarna. Da ba don kin zo kin sadu da ni ba, na rantse da Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila Mai Rai, babu ko ɗaya daga cikin mazan gidan Nabal da zai rage gobe da safe.”

35 Then David accepted from her hand what she had brought him, and he said to her, “Go home in peace. See, I have heeded your voice and granted your request.”

Sa’an nan Dawuda ya karɓi abin da ta kawo masa daga hannunta, ya kuma ce mata, “Ki koma gida kada ki damu, na ji koke-kokenki, zan kuma biya miki bukatarki.”

36 When Abigail returned to Nabal, there he was in the house, holding a feast fit for a king, in high spirits and very drunk. So she told him nothing until morning light.

Da Abigiyel ta kai gida sai ta sami Nabal cikin gida yana ta fama biki iri na sarakuna. Yana ji wa ransa daɗi, ya kuma bugu tilis, saboda haka ba tă ce masa kome ba sai da gari ya waye.

37 In the morning when Nabal was sober, his wife told him about these events, and his heart failed within him and he became like a stone.

Da safe sa’ad da Nabal ya natsu, sai matarsa ta gaya masa dukan abin da ya faru. Sai zuciyarsa ta tsinke, ya zama kamar dutse.

38 About ten days later, the LORD struck Nabal dead.

Bayan kusan kwana goma, Ubangiji ya bugi Nabal, sai ya mutu.

39 On hearing that Nabal was dead, David said, “Blessed be the LORD, who has upheld my cause against the reproach of Nabal and has restrained His servant from evil. For the LORD has brought the wickedness of Nabal down upon his own head.” Then David sent word to Abigail, asking for her in marriage.

Da Dawuda ya sami labarin mutuwar Nabal, sai ya ce, “Yabo ya tabbata ga Ubangiji, wanda ya sāka mini a kan irin renin da Nabal ya yi mini. Ya hana bawansa yin mugunta, ga shi ya ɗora wa Nabal muguntar da ya yi.” Sai Dawuda ya aika wa Abigiyel cewa tă zama matarsa.

40 When his servants came to Abigail at Carmel, they said, “David has sent us to take you as his wife.”

Bayin Dawuda suka tafi Karmel suka ce wa Abigiyel, “Dawuda ya aike mu gare ki, mu zo mu ɗauke ki ki zama matarsa.”

41 She arose, then bowed facedown and said, “Here is your maidservant, ready to serve and to wash the feet of my lord’s servants.”

Sai ta rusuna da fuskarta har ƙasa ta ce, “Ni baranyarka ce, na shirya in bauta maka in kuma wanke ƙafafun bayin shugabana.”

42 So Abigail hurried and got on a donkey, and attended by five of her maidens, she followed David’s messengers and became his wife.

Abigiyel ta tashi da sauri ta hau jaki, ta kuma sa’yan mata biyar da suke mata hidima su bi ta, suka tafi tare da’yan saƙon Dawuda. Ta kuwa zama matarsa.

43 David had also married Ahinoam of Jezreel. So she and Abigail were both his wives.

Dawuda a lokacin ya riga ya auri Ahinowam daga Yezireyel, dukansu suka zama matansa.

44 But Saul had given his daughter Michal, David’s wife, to Palti son of Laish, who was from Gallim.

Amma Shawulu ya aurar da Mikal,’yarsa, matar Dawuda, ga Falti ɗan Layish wanda yake daga Gallim.
