< Deuteronomy 7 >
1 When the LORD your God brings you into the land that you are entering to possess, and He drives out before you many nations—the Hittites, Girgashites, Amorites, Canaanites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites, seven nations larger and stronger than you—
Sa’ad da Ubangiji Allahnku ya kawo ku ƙasar da kuke shiga don ku mallaka, ya kuma kori al’ummai masu yawa a gabanku; wato, Hittiyawa, Girgashiyawa, Amoriyawa, Kan’aniyawa, Ferizziyawa, Hiwiyawa da Yebusiyawa, al’ummai bakwai masu girma da ƙarfi fiye da ku.
2 and when the LORD your God has delivered them over to you to defeat them, then you must devote them to complete destruction. Make no treaty with them and show them no mercy.
Sa’ad da kuma Ubangiji Allahnku ya ba da su gare ku, kuka kuma ci su da yaƙi, sai ku hallaka su ƙaƙaf. Kada ku yi yarjejjeniya da su, kada kuma ku nuna musu jinƙai.
3 Do not intermarry with them. Do not give your daughters to their sons or take their daughters for your sons,
Kada ku yi auratayya da su. Kada ku ba da’ya’yanku mata wa’ya’yansu maza, ko ku ɗauko’ya’yansu mata wa’ya’yanku maza.
4 because they will turn your sons away from following Me to serve other gods. Then the anger of the LORD will burn against you, and He will swiftly destroy you.
Gama za su juye’ya’yanku maza daga bina, su bauta waɗansu alloli, fushin Ubangiji kuma zai ƙuna a kanku da sauri, zai kuma hallaka ku.
5 Instead, this is what you are to do to them: tear down their altars, smash their sacred pillars, cut down their Asherah poles, and burn their idols in the fire.
Ga abin da za ku yi da su, za ku rurrushe bagadansu, ku ragargaza keɓaɓɓun duwatsunsu, ku farfashe ginshiƙan Asheransu, ku kuma ƙona gumakansu da wuta.
6 For you are a people holy to the LORD your God. The LORD your God has chosen you to be a people for His prized possession out of all peoples on the face of the earth.
Gama ku mutane masu tsarki ne ga Ubangiji Allahnku. Ubangiji Allahnku ya zaɓe ku daga dukan mutane a fuskar duniya, don ku zama mutanensa, kayan gādonsa.
7 The LORD did not set His affection on you and choose you because you were more numerous than the other peoples, for you were the fewest of all peoples.
Ba don kun fi sauran al’ummai yawa ne ya sa Ubangiji ya ƙaunace ku, ya kuma zaɓe ku ba, gama ku ne mafi ƙanƙanta cikin dukan al’ummai.
8 But because the LORD loved you and kept the oath He swore to your fathers, He brought you out with a mighty hand and redeemed you from the house of slavery, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt.
Amma ya zama haka domin Ubangiji ya ƙaunace ku, ya kuma kiyaye rantsuwar da ya yi wa kakanninku da ya fitar da ku da hannu mai ƙarfi, ya kuma cece ku daga ƙasar bauta, daga ikon Fir’auna sarkin Masar.
9 Know therefore that the LORD your God is God, the faithful God who keeps His covenant of loving devotion for a thousand generations of those who love Him and keep His commandments.
Saboda haka, ku sani cewa Ubangiji Allahnku, shi ne Allah; shi Allah ne mai aminci, yana kiyaye alkawarinsa na ƙauna ga tsararraki dubu na waɗanda suke ƙaunarsa suke kuma kiyaye umarnansa.
10 But those who hate Him He repays to their faces with destruction; He will not hesitate to repay to his face the one who hates Him.
Amma waɗanda suke ƙinsa, a fili yakan sāka musu da hallaka; ba zai yi jinkiri yin ramuwa a kan maƙiyinsa ba, zai yi ramuwar a fili.
11 So keep the commandments and statutes and ordinances that I am giving you to follow this day.
Saboda haka, sai ku lura, ku bi umarnai, ƙa’idodi, da dokokin nan da nake ba ku a yau.
12 If you listen to these ordinances and keep them carefully, then the LORD your God will keep His covenant and the loving devotion that He swore to your fathers.
In kuka mai da hankali ga waɗannan dokoki, kuka kuma yi hankali ga bin su, to, Ubangiji Allahnku zai kiyaye alkawarinsa na ƙauna gare ku, kamar yadda ya rantse wa kakanninku.
13 He will love you and bless you and multiply you. He will bless the fruit of your womb and the produce of your land—your grain, new wine, and oil, the young of your herds and the lambs of your flocks—in the land that He swore to your fathers to give you.
Zai ƙaunace ku, yă albarkace ku, yă kuma ƙara yawanku. Zai albarkaci’ya’yanku, amfanin gonarku; hatsinku, sabon ruwan inabinku da kuma mai, ƙanana shanunku, da’yan tumaki na tumakinku, a ƙasar da ya rantse wa kakanninku cewa zai ba ku.
14 You will be blessed above all peoples; among you there will be no barren man or woman or livestock.
Za a albarkace ku fiye da waɗansu mutane; babu wani cikin maza ko matanku da zai kasance babu haihuwa, ba kuwa wata dabbarku da za tă kasance babu haihuwa.
15 And the LORD will remove from you all sickness. He will not lay upon you any of the terrible diseases you knew in Egypt, but He will inflict them on all who hate you.
Ubangiji zai kiyaye ku daga kowace cuta. Ba zai wahalshe ku da mugayen cututtukan da kuka sani a Masar ba, amma zai aukar wa dukan maƙiyanku.
16 You must destroy all the peoples the LORD your God will deliver to you. Do not look on them with pity. Do not worship their gods, for that will be a snare to you.
Dole ku hallaka dukan mutanen da Ubangiji Allahnku ya bashe su gare ku. Kada ku ji tausayinsu, kada kuma ku bauta wa allolinsu, gama wannan zai zama tarko gare ku.
17 You may say in your heart, “These nations are greater than we are; how can we drive them out?”
Wataƙila ku ce wa kanku, “Waɗannan al’ummai sun fi mu ƙarfi. Yaya za mu kore su?”
18 But do not be afraid of them. Be sure to remember what the LORD your God did to Pharaoh and all Egypt:
Amma kada ku ji tsoronsu; ku tuna da kyau abin da Ubangiji Allahnku ya yi wa Fir’auna da kuma dukan Masar.
19 the great trials that you saw, the signs and wonders, and the mighty hand and outstretched arm by which the LORD your God brought you out. The LORD your God will do the same to all the peoples you now fear.
Kun ga da idanunku, manyan gwaje-gwaje, alamu masu banmamaki da al’ajabai, hannu mai ƙarfi da kuma mai ikon da Ubangiji Allahnku ya fitar da ku. Ubangiji Allahnku zai yi haka ga dukan mutanen da yanzu kuke tsoro.
20 Moreover, the LORD your God will send the hornet against them until even the survivors hiding from you have perished.
Ban da haka ma, Ubangiji Allahnku zai aika da rina a cikinsu, har sai sun hallaka sauran mutanen da suka ragu, waɗanda suka ɓuya daga gare ku.
21 Do not be terrified by them, for the LORD your God, who is among you, is a great and awesome God.
Kada ku tsorata saboda su, gama Ubangiji Allahnku, wanda yake a cikinku, Allah ne mai girma da kuma mai banrazana.
22 The LORD your God will drive out these nations before you little by little. You will not be enabled to eliminate them all at once, or the wild animals would multiply around you.
Da kaɗan da kaɗan Ubangiji Allahnku zai kore waɗannan al’ummai a gabanku. Ba a bari ku hallaka su duka gaba ɗaya ba, in ba haka namun jeji za su yaɗu kewaye da ku.
23 But the LORD your God will give them over to you and throw them into great confusion, until they are destroyed.
Amma Ubangiji Allahnku zai ba da su gare ku, yana jefa su cikin rikicewa mai girma, har sai an hallaka su.
24 He will hand their kings over to you, and you will wipe out their names from under heaven. No one will be able to stand against you; you will annihilate them.
Zai ba da sarakunsu a hannunku, za ku kuwa shafe sunayensu daga duniya. Babu wani da zai yi tsayayya da ku, za ku hallaka su.
25 You must burn up the images of their gods; do not covet the silver and gold that is on them or take it for yourselves, or you will be ensnared by it; for it is detestable to the LORD your God.
Ku ƙone siffar allolinsu da wuta. Kada ku yi ƙyashin azurfa ko zinariyar da aka rufe allolin da ita, Kada ku kwashe su, don kada su zamar muku tarko, gama abin ƙyama ne ga Ubangiji Allahnku.
26 And you must not bring any detestable thing into your house, or you, like it, will be set apart for destruction. You are to utterly detest and abhor it, because it is set apart for destruction.
Kada ku kawo abin ƙyama cikin gidajenku, domin kada ku zama kamar su. Gaba ɗaya ku yi ƙyamarsu, ku ƙi su, gama an ware su, sun zama domin a hallaka.
