< Judges 7 >

1 Early in the morning Jerubbaal (that is, Gideon) and all the men with him camped beside the spring of Harod. And the camp of Midian was north of them in the valley near the hill of Moreh.
Kashegari da sassafe, Yerub-Ba’al (wato, Gideyon) da dukan mutanensa suka kafa sansani a maɓulɓulan Harod. Sansanin Midiyawa kuma yana arewa da su a kwari kusa da tudu na More.
2 Then the LORD said to Gideon, “You have too many people for Me to deliver Midian into their hands, lest Israel glorify themselves over Me, saying, ‘My own hand has saved me.’
Sai Ubangiji ya ce wa Gideyon, “Mutanen da kake da su sun yi mini yawa da zan ba da Midiyawa a hannunsu. Don kada Isra’ila tă yi mini fahariya cewa ƙarfinta ne ya cece su,
3 Now, therefore, proclaim in the hearing of the people: ‘Whoever is fearful and trembling may turn back and leave Mount Gilead.’” So twenty-two thousand of them turned back, but ten thousand remained.
ka yi shela ga mutane yanzu cewa, ‘Duk wanda ya yi rawan jiki don tsoro, sai yă juya yă bar Dutsen Gileyad.’” Saboda haka mutum dubu ashirin da biyu suka koma, sai mutum dubu goma suka rage.
4 Then the LORD said to Gideon, “There are still too many people. Take them down to the water, and I will sift them for you there. If I say to you, ‘This one shall go with you,’ he shall go. But if I say, ‘This one shall not go with you,’ he shall not go.”
Amma Ubangiji ya ce wa Gideyon, “Har yanzu mutanen sun yi yawa. Ka kai cikin ruwa, in kuma tankaɗe maka su a can. In na ce, ‘Wannan zai tafi da kai,’ to, zai tafi; amma in na ce, ‘Wannan ba zai tafi da kai ba,’ to, ba zai tafi ba.”
5 So Gideon brought the people down to the water, and the LORD said to him, “Separate those who lap the water with their tongues like a dog from those who kneel to drink.”
Saboda haka Gideyon ya kai mutanen cikin ruwa. A can Ubangiji ya ce masa, “Ka ware waɗanda suka tanɗi ruwa kamar kare daga waɗanda suka durƙusa suka sha ruwan.”
6 And the number of those who lapped the water with their hands to their mouths was three hundred men; all the others knelt to drink.
Mutum ɗari uku sun tanɗi ruwa, dukan sauran kuwa suka durƙusa suka sha ruwan.
7 Then the LORD said to Gideon, “With the three hundred men who lapped the water I will save you and deliver the Midianites into your hand. But all the others are to go home.”
Sai Ubangiji ya ce wa Gideyon, “Da mutum ɗari uku ɗin nan da suka tanɗi ruwa, zan cece ka in kuma ba da Midiyawa a hannuwanku. Ka bar sauran mutane su tafi kowa zuwa wurinsa.”
8 So Gideon sent the rest of the Israelites to their tents but kept the three hundred men, who took charge of the provisions and rams’ horns of the others. And the camp of Midian lay below him in the valley.
Saboda haka Gideyon ya mai da sauran Isra’ilawa zuwa tentinsu amma ya riƙe mutum ɗari uku waɗanda suka karɓi guzuri da ƙahonin sauran. To, sansanin Midiyawa yana ƙasa da su a kwarin.
9 That night the LORD said to Gideon, “Get up and go down against the camp, for I have delivered it into your hand.
A daren nan Ubangiji ya ce wa Gideyon, “Tashi ka tafi sansaninsu domin zan ba da su a hannuwanka.
10 But if you are afraid to do so, then go down to the camp with your servant Purah
In kana tsoron fāɗa musu, sai ka tafi da bawanka Fura
11 and listen to what they are saying. Then your hands will be strengthened to attack the camp.” So he went with Purah his servant to the outposts where armed men were guarding the camp.
ka kuma saurari abin da suke faɗi. Bayan haka za ka sami ƙarfin hali ka auka musu.” Saboda haka sai ya tafi tare da Fura bawansa zuwa sansanin.
12 Now the Midianites, Amalekites, and all the other people of the east had settled in the valley like a swarm of locusts, and their camels were as countless as the sand on the seashore.
Midiyawa, Amalekawa da dukan sauran mutane gabashi suka yi sansani a kwari, kamar fāra. Raƙumansu kuma kamar yashi a bakin teku don sun wuce ƙirge.
13 And as Gideon arrived, a man was telling his friend about a dream. “Behold, I had a dream,” he said, “and I saw a loaf of barley bread come tumbling into the Midianite camp. It struck the tent so hard that the tent overturned and collapsed.”
Gideyon ya iso daidai wani yana faɗa wa wani aboki mafarkinsa, yana cewa, “Na yi mafarki, na ga dunƙule burodin sha’ir ya fāɗo a tsakiyar sansanin Midiyawa. Ya bugi tentin da ƙarfin da ya sa tenti ta kife a ƙasa.”
14 His friend replied: “This is nothing less than the sword of Gideon son of Joash, the Israelite. God has delivered Midian and the whole camp into his hand.”
Abokinsa ya ce, “Ai wannan ba wani abu ba ne fiye da takobin Gideyon ɗan Yowash, mutumin Isra’ila. Allah ya ba da Midiyawa da dukan sansani a hannuwansa.”
15 When Gideon heard the dream and its interpretation, he bowed in worship. He returned to the camp of Israel and said, “Get up, for the LORD has delivered the camp of Midian into your hand.”
Da Gideyon ya ji mafarkin da fassararsa, sai ya yi wa Allah sujada. Ya koma sansanin Isra’ila ya yi kira da ƙarfi ya ce, “Ku tashi! Ubangiji ya ba da sansanin Midiyawa a hannuwanku.”
16 And he divided the three hundred men into three companies and gave each man a ram’s horn in one hand and a large jar in the other, containing a torch.
Ya raba mutum ɗari uku ɗin kashi uku, ya ba kowannensu ƙaho da tulu da acibalbal a ciki.
17 “Watch me and do as I do,” Gideon said. “When I come to the outskirts of the camp, do exactly as I do.
Ya ce musu, “Ku dube ni, ku bi abin da na yi. Sa’ad da na kai sansanin, ku yi daidai abin da na yi.
18 When I and all who are with me blow our horns, then you are also to blow your horns from all around the camp and shout, ‘For the LORD and for Gideon!’”
Sa’ad da ni da dukan waɗanda suke tare da ni muka busa ƙahoninmu, to, ko’ina a kewayen sansanin sai ku busa naku ku kuma yi ihu, ku ce, ‘Don Ubangiji da kuma domin Gideyon.’”
19 Gideon and the hundred men with him reached the outskirts of the camp at the beginning of the middle watch, just after the changing of the guard. They blew their horns and broke the jars that were in their hands.
Gideyon da mutum ɗari da suke tare da shi suka kai sansanin da tsakar dare bayan an sauya matsara. Suka busa ƙahoninsu, suka farfashe tulunansu da suke hannuwansu.
20 The three companies blew their horns and shattered their jars. Holding the torches in their left hands and the horns in their right hands, they shouted, “A sword for the LORD and for Gideon!”
Ƙungiyoyi uku ɗin nan suka busa ƙahonin, suka fasa tuluna. Suka ɗauki acibalbal a hannuwansu na hagu da ƙahonin busawa a hannuwansu na dama, sai suka yi ihu, “Takobi don Ubangiji da kuma don Gideyon!”
21 Each Israelite took his position around the camp, and the entire Midianite army fled, crying out as they ran.
Yayinda kowannensu ya tsaya a inda yake kewaye da sansanin, dukan Midiyawa suka fito da gudu, suna kuka yayinda suke gudu.
22 And when the three hundred rams’ horns sounded, the LORD set all the men in the camp against one another with their swords. The army fled to Beth-shittah toward Zererah as far as the border of Abel-meholah near Tabbath.
Sa’ad da aka busa ƙahonin nan ɗari uku sai Ubangiji ya sa Midiyawa suka yi ta saran juna. Mayaƙan suka gudu zuwa Bet-Shitta wajen Zerera har zuwa yankin Abel-Mehola kusa da Tabbat.
23 Then the men of Israel were called out from Naphtali, Asher, and all Manasseh, and they pursued the Midianites.
Aka kira dukan Isra’ilawa daga Naftali, Asher da dukan Manasse, suka kuwa fatattaki Midiyawa.
24 Gideon sent messengers throughout the hill country of Ephraim to say, “Come down against the Midianites and seize the waters of the Jordan ahead of them as far as Beth-barah.” So all the men of Ephraim were called out, and they captured the waters of the Jordan as far as Beth-barah.
Gideyon ya aiki manzanni zuwa dukan ƙasar tudu ta Efraim cewa, “Ku gangaro ku yaƙi Midiyawa ku ƙwace ruwan Urdun gaba da su har zuwa Bet-Bara.” Saboda haka aka kira dukan mutanen Efraim suka ƙwace ruwan Urdun har zuwa Bet-Bara.
25 They also captured Oreb and Zeeb, the two princes of Midian; and they killed Oreb at the rock of Oreb and Zeeb at the winepress of Zeeb. So they pursued the Midianites and brought the heads of Oreb and Zeeb to Gideon on the other side of the Jordan.
Suka kuma kama shugabannin biyu na Midiyawa, Oreb da Zeyib suka kashe Oreb a dutsen Oreb, Zeyib kuma a wurin matsin ruwa inabin Zeyib. Suka fatattaki Midiyawa suka kawo kawunan Oreb da Zeba wurin Gideyon, wanda yake kusa da Urdun.
