< Deuteronomy 9 >
1 Hear, O Israel: Today you are about to cross the Jordan to go in and dispossess nations greater and stronger than you, with large cities fortified to the heavens.
Ku ji, ya Isra’ila. Kuna gab da haye Urdun, ku shiga, ku kuma kori al’ummai da suka fi ku yawa, suka kuma fi ku ƙarfi, masu manyan biranen da suke da katangar da suka yi tsaye zuwa sama.
2 The people are strong and tall, the descendants of the Anakim. You know about them, and you have heard it said, “Who can stand up to the sons of Anak?”
Mutane ne masu ƙarfi, kuma dogaye, zuriyar Anakawa! Ai, kun ji akan ce, “Wa zai iya tsayayya da Anakawa?”
3 But understand that today the LORD your God goes across ahead of you as a consuming fire; He will destroy them and subdue them before you. And you will drive them out and annihilate them swiftly, as the LORD has promised you.
Amma ku zauna da sani a yau, cewa Ubangiji Allahnku, shi ne wanda ya ƙetare ya sha gabanku kamar wuta mai cinyewa. Zai hallaka su, zai rinjaye su a gabanku. Za ku kore su, ku kuma hallaka su nan da nan, yadda Ubangiji ya yi muku alkawari.
4 When the LORD your God has driven them out before you, do not say in your heart, “Because of my righteousness the LORD has brought me in to possess this land.” Rather, the LORD is driving out these nations before you because of their wickedness.
Bayan Ubangiji Allahnku ya kore su a gabanku, kada ku faɗa a zuciyarku, “Ubangiji ya kawo mu a nan, mu mallaki wannan ƙasa saboda adalcinmu ne.” A’a, saboda muguntar waɗannan al’umma ne ya sa Ubangiji ya kore su a gabanku.
5 It is not because of your righteousness or uprightness of heart that you are going in to possess their land, but it is because of their wickedness that the LORD your God is driving out these nations before you, to keep the promise He swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
Ba domin adalci ko mutuncinku ba ne ya sa za ku mallaki ƙasarsu; sai dai saboda muguntar al’umman nan ne ya sa Ubangiji Allahnku yana korinsu a gabanku don yă cika abin da ya rantse wa kakanninku, wato, Ibrahim, Ishaku da Yaƙub.
6 Understand, then, that it is not because of your righteousness that the LORD your God is giving you this good land to possess, for you are a stiff-necked people.
Ku gane wannan, cewa ba domin adalcinku ba ne ya sa Ubangiji Allahnku yana ba ku wannan ƙasa mai kyau, ku mallaki, gama ku mutane masu taurinkai ne.
7 Remember this, and never forget how you provoked the LORD your God in the wilderness. From the day you left the land of Egypt until you reached this place, you have been rebelling against the LORD.
Ku tuna da wannan, kada kuma ku manta yadda kuka tsokane Ubangiji Allahnku, har ya yi fushi a hamada. Daga ranar da kuka bar Masar har sai da kuka isa nan, kuna ta tawaye wa Ubangiji.
8 At Horeb you provoked the LORD, and He was angry enough to destroy you.
A Horeb, kun tayar wa Ubangiji har ya yi fushin da ya isa yă hallaka ku.
9 When I went up on the mountain to receive the tablets of stone, the tablets of the covenant that the LORD made with you, I stayed on the mountain forty days and forty nights. I ate no bread and drank no water.
Sa’ad da na hau kan dutse don in karɓi allunan dutse, allunan alkawarin da Ubangiji ya yi da ku, na zauna a kan dutse yini arba’in da dare arba’in; ban ci abinci ba, ban sha ruwa ba.
10 Then the LORD gave me the two stone tablets, inscribed by the finger of God with the exact words that the LORD spoke to you out of the fire on the mountain on the day of the assembly.
Ubangiji ya ba ni alluna biyu wanda shi kansa ya yi rubutu da yatsarsa. A kansu akwai dukan umarnan Ubangiji da an furta muku a kan dutse a tsakiyar wuta, a ranar taron jama’a.
11 And at the end of forty days and forty nights, the LORD gave me the two stone tablets, the tablets of the covenant.
A ƙarshen yini arba’in da dare arba’in ɗin, Ubangiji ya ba ni alluna biyu na dutse, allunan alkawari.
12 And the LORD said to me, “Get up and go down from here at once, for your people, whom you brought out of Egypt, have corrupted themselves. How quickly they have turned aside from the way that I commanded them! They have made for themselves a molten image.”
Sa’an nan Ubangiji ya faɗa mini, “Sauka daga nan da sauri, domin mutanenka waɗanda ka fitar da su daga Masar sun lalace. Sun juye da sauri daga abin da na umarce su, suka kuma yi zubin gunki wa kansu.”
13 The LORD also said to me, “I have seen this people, and they are indeed a stiff-necked people.
Sai Ubangiji ya ce mini, “Na ga mutanen nan, su masu taurinkai ne sosai!
14 Leave Me alone, so that I may destroy them and blot out their name from under heaven. Then I will make you into a nation mightier and greater than they are.”
Bar ni kawai, in hallaka su, in kuma shafe sunansu daga ƙarƙashin sama. Zan kuwa yi maka wata al’umma mafi ƙarfi da kuma masu yawa fiye da su.”
15 So I went back down the mountain while it was blazing with fire, with the two tablets of the covenant in my hands.
Saboda haka na juya, na sauko daga dutsen yayinda yake cin wuta. Allunan biyu na alkawarin kuma suna a hannuwana.
16 And I saw how you had sinned against the LORD your God; you had made for yourselves a molten calf. You had turned aside quickly from the way that the LORD had commanded you.
Sa’ad da na duba, sai na ga cewa kun yi zunubi wa Ubangiji Allahnku; kun yi wa kanku gunkin da kuka yi zubi a siffar ɗan maraƙi. Kun kauce da sauri daga hanyar da Ubangiji ya umarce ku.
17 So I took the two tablets and threw them out of my hands, shattering them before your eyes.
Saboda haka na ɗauko alluna biyun na jefar da su daga hannuwana, na farfashe su a idanunku.
18 Then I fell down before the LORD for forty days and forty nights, as I had done the first time. I did not eat bread or drink water because of all the sin you had committed in doing what was evil in the sight of the LORD and provoking Him to anger.
Sai nan da nan kuma na fāɗi rubda ciki a gaban Ubangiji, yini arba’in da dare arba’in; ban ci ba, ban sha ba, kamar yadda dā na yi, duka saboda zunubin da kuka aikata a gaban Ubangiji. Ta haka kuka tsokane shi don yă yi fushi.
19 For I was afraid of the anger and wrath that the LORD had directed against you, enough to destroy you. But the LORD listened to me this time as well.
Na ji tsoron fushi da hasalar Ubangiji, gama ya yi fushin da ku da ya isa yă hallaka ku. Amma na yi roƙo a lokacin, Ubangiji kuwa ya saurare ni.
20 The LORD was angry enough with Aaron to destroy him, but at that time I also prayed for Aaron.
Ubangiji ya yi fushi sosai da Haruna, har ya yi niyya yă hallaka shi, amma a wannan lokaci, na yi addu’a saboda Haruna shi ma.
21 And I took that sinful thing, the calf you had made, and burned it in the fire. Then I crushed it and ground it to powder as fine as dust, and I cast it into the stream that came down from the mountain.
Sa’an nan na ɗauki kayan zunubin da kuka yi, wato, gunkin ɗan bijimi, na ƙone shi da wuta, na farfashe shi, na niƙa shi liɓis, sai da ya zama kamar ƙura mai laushi, na zubar da ƙurar a cikin ruwan rafin da yake gangarowa daga dutse.
22 You continued to provoke the LORD at Taberah, at Massah, and at Kibroth-hattaavah.
Kun kuma sa Ubangiji ya yi fushi a Tabera, a Massa da kuma a Kibrot Hatta’awa.
23 And when the LORD sent you out from Kadesh-barnea, He said, “Go up and possess the land that I have given you.” But you rebelled against the command of the LORD your God. You neither believed Him nor obeyed Him.
Sa’ad da Ubangiji ya aike ku daga Kadesh Barneya ya ce, “Ku haura ku mallaki ƙasar da na ba ku.” Amma kuka yi tawaye ga umarnin Ubangiji Allahnku. Ba ku amince da shi, ko ku yi masa biyayya ba.
24 You have been rebelling against the LORD since the day I came to know you.
Kun yi ta tawaye wa Ubangiji tun ran da na san ku.
25 So I fell down before the LORD for forty days and forty nights, because the LORD had said He would destroy you.
Na kwanta rubda ciki a gaban Ubangiji waɗannan yini arba’in da dare arba’in domin Ubangiji ya ce zai hallaka ku.
26 And I prayed to the LORD and said, “O Lord GOD, do not destroy Your people, Your inheritance, whom You redeemed through Your greatness and brought out of Egypt with a mighty hand.
Na yi addu’a ga Ubangiji na ce, “Ya Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka, kada ka hallaka mutanenka, gādon kanka, da ka fansa ta wurin ikonka mai girma, ka kuma fitar da su daga Masar da hannu mai ƙarfi.
27 Remember Your servants Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Overlook the stubbornness of this people and the wickedness of their sin.
Ka tuna da bayinka Ibrahim, Ishaku da Yaƙub. Kada ka kula da taurinkan, mugunta da kuma zunubin wannan mutane.
28 Otherwise, those in the land from which You brought us out will say, ‘Because the LORD was not able to bring them into the land He had promised them, and because He hated them, He has brought them out to kill them in the wilderness.’
In ba haka ba, ƙasar da ka fitar da mu, za tă ce, ‘Domin Ubangiji bai iya kai su cikin ƙasar da ya yi musu alkawari ba ne, kuma domin ya ƙi su, shi ya sa ya fitar da su ya kashe su a hamada.’
29 But they are Your people, Your inheritance, whom You brought out by Your great power and outstretched arm.”
Amma su mutanenka ne, gādonka da ka fitar ta wurin ikonka mai girma, da kuma hannunka mai ƙarfi.”
