Judges 6
1 Again the Israelites did evil in the sight of the LORD; so He delivered them into the hand of Midian for seven years,
Isra’ilawa suka sāke yin mugayen ayyuka a gaban Ubangiji, sai ya ba da su ga Midiyawa shekara bakwai.
2 and the hand of Midian prevailed against Israel. Because of the Midianites, the Israelites prepared shelters for themselves in the mountains, caves, and strongholds.
Da Midiyawa suka matsa musu sosai, sai Isra’ilawa suka yi wa kansu mafakai a rammukan duwatsu, kogona da kuma mafaka.
3 Whenever the Israelites would plant their crops, the Midianites, Amalekites, and other people of the east would come up and invade them,
Duk lokacin da Isra’ilawa suka yi shuka sai Midiyawa da Amalekawa da waɗansu mutane daga gabashi sukan kai musu hari.
4 encamping against them as far as Gaza and destroying the produce of the land. They left Israel with no sustenance, neither sheep nor oxen nor donkeys.
Sukan yi sansani a ƙasar sun lalatar da hatsi har zuwa Gaza kuma ba sa barin wani abu mai rai wa Isra’ila, ko tumaki ko shanu ko jakuna.
5 For the Midianites came with their livestock and their tents like a great swarm of locusts. They and their camels were innumerable, and they entered the land to ravage it.
Sukan zo da dabbobinsu da tentinsu kamar tarin fāri. Yana da wuya a ƙidaya yawan mutanen da kuma raƙumansu; sukan mamaye ƙasar don su lalatar da ita.
6 Israel was greatly impoverished by Midian, and the Israelites cried out to the LORD.
Midiyawa suka talauce Isra’ilawa ƙwarai, har ya sa suka yi kuka ga Ubangiji don taimako.
7 Now when the Israelites cried out to the LORD because of Midian,
Sa’ad da Isra’ilawa suka yi kuka ga Ubangiji saboda Midiyawa,
8 He sent them a prophet, who told them, “This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: I brought you up out of Egypt, out of the house of slavery.
sai ya aika musu da annabi, wanda ya ce, “Ga abin da Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila ya ce na fitar da ku daga Masar, daga ƙasar bauta.
9 I delivered you out of the hands of Egypt and all your oppressors. I drove them out before you and gave you their land.
Na ƙwace ku daga ikon Masarawa da kuma daga dukan hannuwan masu danniya. Na kore su a gabanku na kuma ba ku ƙasarsu.
10 And I said to you: ‘I am the LORD your God. You must not fear the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you dwell.’ But you did not obey Me.”
Na ce muku, ‘Ni ne Ubangiji Allahnku; kada ku bauta allolin Amoriyawa, waɗanda kuke zama a ƙasarsu.’ Amma ba ku saurare ni ba.”
11 Then the angel of the LORD came and sat down under the oak in Ophrah that belonged to Joash the Abiezrite, where his son Gideon was threshing wheat in a winepress to hide it from the Midianites.
Sai mala’ikan Ubangiji ya zo ya zauna a ƙarƙashin itacen oak a Ofra na Yowash mutumin Abiyezer, inda ɗansa Gideyon yake sussukar alkama a wurin matsin inabi don yă ɓoye daga Midiyawa.
12 And the angel of the LORD appeared to Gideon and said, “The LORD is with you, O mighty man of valor.”
Sa’ad da mala’ikan Ubangiji ya bayyana wa Gideyon, sai ya ce masa, “Ubangiji yana tare da kai, jarumi.”
13 “Please, my Lord,” Gideon replied, “if the LORD is with us, why has all this happened to us? And where are all His wonders of which our fathers told us, saying, ‘Has not the LORD brought us up out of Egypt?’ But now the LORD has forsaken us and delivered us into the hand of Midian.”
Gideyon ya ce, “Ranka yă daɗe, in Ubangiji yana tare da mu, me ya sa waɗannan abubuwa suka faru da mu? Ina dukan abubuwan al’ajabinsa waɗanda kakanninmu suka gaya mana game su sa’ad da suka ce, ‘Ashe, ba Ubangiji ne ya fitar da mu daga Masar ba?’ Amma yanzu Ubangiji ya rabu da mu ya kuma sa mu hannun Midiyawa.”
14 The LORD turned to him and said, “Go in the strength you have and save Israel from the hand of Midian. Am I not sending you?”
Sai Ubangiji ya juya wajensa ya ce, “Ka je da ƙarfin da kake da shi ka ceci Isra’ila daga hannun Midiyawa. Ba Ni ne nake aikan ka ba?”
15 “Please, my Lord,” Gideon replied, “how can I save Israel? Indeed, my clan is the weakest in Manasseh, and I am the youngest in my father’s house.”
Gideyon ya ce, “Amma Ubangiji, yaya zan iya ceci Isra’ila? Kabilata ce marar ƙarfi duka a Manasse, kuma ni ne ƙarami a iyalina.”
16 “Surely I will be with you,” the LORD replied, “and you will strike down all the Midianites as one man.”
Ubangiji ya ce, “Zan kasance tare da kai, za ka kuwa fatattake dukan Midiyawa gaba ɗaya.”
17 Gideon answered, “If I have found favor in Your sight, give me a sign that it is You speaking with me.
Gideyon ya ce, “In lalle na sami tagomashi a gabanka, to, ka ba ni wata alamar da ta nuna lalle kai kake magana da ni.
18 Please do not depart from this place until I return to You. Let me bring my offering and set it before You.” And the LORD said, “I will stay until you return.”
Ina roƙonka ka dakata har in komo in kawo maka hadayata in ajiye a gabanka.” Sai Ubangiji ya ce, “Zan jira har ka dawo.”
19 So Gideon went in and prepared a young goat and unleavened bread and an ephah of flour. He placed the meat in a basket and the broth in a pot and brought them out to present to Him under the oak.
Sai Gideyon ya shiga ciki, ya gyara’yar akuya ya dafa, da garin efa ya yi burodi marar yisti. Da ya sa naman a kwando, romon kuma a tukunya, sai ya fito da su waje ya miƙa masa su a ƙarƙashin itacen oak.
20 And the angel of God said to him, “Take the meat and the unleavened bread, lay them on this rock, and pour out the broth.” And Gideon did so.
Mala’ikan Allah ya ce masa, “Ka ɗauko naman da burodi marar yisti ka sa su a kan wannan dutse, ka zuba romon a kai.” Gideyon kuwa ya yi haka.
21 Then the angel of the LORD extended the tip of the staff that was in his hand and touched the meat and the unleavened bread. And fire flared from the rock and consumed the meat and the unleavened bread. Then the angel of the LORD vanished from his sight.
Da kan sandan da yake a hannunsa, mala’ikan Ubangiji ya taɓa naman da burodi marar yistin. Sai wuta ta fito daga dutsen ta cinye naman da burodin. Mala’ikan kuwa ya ɓace.
22 When Gideon realized that it was the angel of the LORD, he said, “Oh no, Lord GOD! I have seen the angel of the LORD face to face!”
Sa’ad da Gideyon ya gane mala’ikan Ubangiji ne, sai ya ce, “Ya Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka! Na ga mala’ikan Ubangiji ido da ido.”
23 But the LORD said to him, “Peace be with you. Do not be afraid, for you will not die.”
Amma Ubangiji ya ce masa, “Salama! Kada ka ji tsoro, ba za ka mutu ba.”
24 So Gideon built an altar to the LORD there and called it The LORD Is Peace. To this day it stands in Ophrah of the Abiezrites.
Saboda haka Gideyon ya gina wa Ubangiji bagade a can, ya kuma kira shi, Ubangiji Salama ne. Har wa yau bagaden yana a Ofra ta mutanen Abiyezer.
25 On that very night the LORD said to Gideon, “Take your father’s young bull and a second bull seven years old, tear down your father’s altar to Baal, and cut down the Asherah pole beside it.
A wannan dare Ubangiji ya ce masa, “Ka ɗauki bijimi na biyu daga garken mahaifinka, wannan mai shekara bakwai. Ka rushe bagaden mahaifinka na Ba’al ka sare ginshiƙin Ashera kusa da ita.
26 Then build a proper altar to the LORD your God on the top of this stronghold. And with the wood of the Asherah pole you cut down, take the second bull and offer it as a burnt offering.”
Sa’an nan ka gina bagade irin da ya dace wa Ubangiji Allahnka a kan wannan tudu. Ka yi amfani da itacen katakon ginshiƙin Ashera da ka sare, ka miƙa bijiman nan biyu hadaya ta ƙonawa.”
27 So Gideon took ten of his servants and did as the LORD had told him. But because he was too afraid of his father’s household and the men of the city, he did it by night rather than in the daytime.
Saboda haka Gideyon ya ɗebi bayinsa bakwai ya yi yadda Ubangiji ya ce masa. Amma saboda yana tsoron iyalinsa da mutanen gari, ya yi haka da dare a maimako da rana.
28 When the men of the city got up in the morning, there was Baal’s altar torn down, with the Asherah pole cut down beside it and the second bull offered up on the newly built altar.
Da safe sa’ad da mutanen garin suka tashi, sai suka tarar an rushe bagaden Ba’al, tare da ginshiƙin Ashera da yake kusa da shi, duk an sare, bijimi na biyu kuma aka miƙa hadaya a kan sabon bagaden!
29 “Who did this?” they said to one another. And after they had investigated thoroughly, they were told, “Gideon son of Joash did it.”
Sai suka tambayi junansu, “Wa ya yi wannan?” Sa’ad da suka bincika a hankali, sai aka faɗa musu, “Gideyon ɗan Yowash ne ya yi haka.”
30 Then the men of the city said to Joash, “Bring out your son. He must die, because he has torn down Baal’s altar and cut down the Asherah pole beside it.”
Mutanen garin suka ce wa Yowash, “Ka kawo mana ɗanka. Dole yă mutu, domin ya rushe bagaden Ba’al, ya sare ginshiƙin Asheran da yake tsaye kusa da shi.”
31 But Joash said to all who stood against him, “Are you contending for Baal? Are you trying to save him? Whoever pleads his case will be put to death by morning! If Baal is a god, let him contend for himself with the one who has torn down his altar.”
Amma Yowash ya ce wa taron da suka tayar masa, “Za ku yi hamayya domin Ba’al ne? Kuna ƙoƙari ku cece shi ne? Duk wanda ya yi faɗa saboda shi za a kashe shi kafin safe. In lalle Ba’al allah ne, zai kāre kansa sa’ad da wani ya rushe bagadensa.”
32 So on that day Gideon was called Jerubbaal, that is to say, “Let Baal contend with him,” because he had torn down Baal’s altar.
Saboda haka a ranar suka kira Gideyon, “Yerub-Ba’al,” suna cewa, “Bari Ba’al ya yi hamayya da shi,” domin ya rushe bagaden Ba’al.
33 Then all the Midianites, Amalekites, and other people of the east gathered together, crossed over the Jordan, and camped in the Valley of Jezreel.
To, dukan Midiyawa, Amalekawa da sauran mutanen gabashi suka haɗa ƙarfi suka ƙetare Urdun suka kafa sansani a Kwarin Yezireyel.
34 So the Spirit of the LORD came upon Gideon, who blew the ram’s horn and rallied the Abiezrites behind him.
Sa’an nan Ruhun Ubangiji ya sauko wa Gideyon, ya kuma busa ƙaho, ya kira mutanen Abiyezer su bi shi.
35 Calling them to arms, Gideon sent messengers throughout Manasseh, as well as Asher, Zebulun, and Naphtali, so that they came up to meet him.
Ya aika manzanni ko’ina a Manasse, yana kiransu su kintsa, haka ma Asher, Zebulun da Naftali, ta haka su ma suka haura su sadu da su.
36 Then Gideon said to God, “If You are going to save Israel by my hand, as You have said,
Gideyon ya cewa Allah, “In za ka ceci Isra’ila ta hannuna yadda ka yi alkawari,
37 then behold, I will place a fleece of wool on the threshing floor. If there is dew only on the fleece and all the ground is dry, then I will know that You are going to save Israel by my hand, as You have said.”
to, zan shimfiɗa ulu a masussuka, inda safe akwai raɓa a kan ulun kaɗai, ƙasa kuwa a bushe, to, zan san cewa za ka ceci Isra’ila ta hannuna, yadda ka ce.”
38 And that is what happened. When Gideon arose the next morning, he squeezed the fleece and wrung out the dew—a bowlful of water.
Abin da faru ke nan. Gideyon ya tashi da sassafe kashegari, ya matse ulun ya kakkaɓe raɓar, ruwan ya cika ƙwarya.
39 Then Gideon said to God, “Do not be angry with me; let me speak one more time. Please allow me one more test with the fleece. This time let it be dry, and the ground covered with dew.”
Sa’an nan Gideyon ya ce wa Allah, “Kada ka yi fushi da ni. Bari in ƙara yin wani gwaji kuma da ulun. A wannan lokaci ka sa ulun yă bushe, ƙasar kuma ta rufu da raɓa.”
40 And that night God did so. Only the fleece was dry, and dew covered the ground.
A wannan dare Allah ya yi haka. Ulun ne kaɗai yake a bushe, amma dukan ƙasar ta jiƙe da raɓa.
