< 1 Samuel 10 >

1 Then Samuel took the bottle of oil, and put the oil on his head and gave him a kiss and said, Is not the Lord with the holy oil making you ruler over Israel, his people? and you will have authority over the people of the Lord, and you will make them safe from the hands of their attackers round about them, and this will be the sign for you:
Sai Sama’ila ya ɗauki’yar kwalabar mai, ya zuba man ɗin wa Shawulu a kansa, ya yi masa sumba yana cewa, “Ubangiji ya keɓe ka shugaba bisa gādonsa.
2 When you have gone away from me today, you will see two men by the resting-place of Rachel's body, in the land of Benjamin at Zelzah; and they will say to you, The asses which you went in search of have come back, and now your father, caring no longer for the asses, is troubled about you, saying, What am I to do about my son?
Sa’ad da ka rabu da ni yau, za ka sadu da mutum biyu kusa da kabarin Rahila a Zelza, a yankin Benyamin. Za su ce maka, ‘An sami jakunan da ka fita nema, yanzu haka mahaifinka ya bar damuwa kan jakunan ya koma damuwa a kanka, yana cewa, yaya zan gan ɗana?’
3 Then you are to go on from there, and when you come to the oak-tree of Tabor, you will see three men going up to God to Beth-el, one having with him three young goats and another three cakes of bread and another a skin full of wine:
“Sa’an nan za ka ci gaba daga nan sai ka kai wajen babban itace na Tabor. Waɗansu mutum uku za su sadu da kai a hanyarsu zuwa wurin yin wa Allah sujada a Betel. Ɗaya yana ɗauke da’yan awaki uku, ɗaya yana ɗauke da burodi uku, ɗayan kuma yana ɗauke da salkar ruwan inabi.
4 They will say, Peace be with you, and will give you two cakes of bread, which you are to take from them.
Za su gaishe ka, su ba ka burodi biyu, kai kuwa sai ka karɓa.
5 After that you will come to Gibeah, the hill of God, where an armed force of the Philistines is stationed: and when you come to the town, you will see a band of prophets coming down from the high place with instruments of music before them; and they will be acting like prophets:
“Bayan wannan, za ka tafi Gebiya ta Allah, inda sansanin Filistiyawa yake. Kana shiga garin, za ka sadu da jerin gwanon annabawa suna gangarowa daga tudu, ana kaɗa garaya, ana bugan ganguna, ana hura sarewa, ana kuma bugan molo, a gabansu, su kuma za su yi ta annabci.
6 And the spirit of the Lord will come on you with power, and you will be acting like a prophet with them, and will be changed into another man.
Ruhun Ubangiji zai sauko a kanka da iko, za ka kuma yi annabci tare da su. Za a canja ka ka zama dabam.
7 And when these signs come to you, see that you take the chance which is offered you; for God is with you.
Da zarar waɗannan alamu sun cika, sai ka aikata duk abin da kana iya yi gama Allah yana tare da kai.
8 Then you are to go down before me to Gilgal, where I will come to you, for the offering of burned offerings and peace-offerings: go on waiting there for seven days till I come to you and make clear to you what you have to do.
“Ka sha gabana zuwa Gilgal. Lalle zan gangara wurinka domin in miƙa hadaya ta ƙonawa da hadayu na salama. Sai ka jira ni kwana bakwai sai na zo wurinka na kuma gaya maka abin da za ka yi.”
9 And it came about, that when he went away from Samuel, God gave him a changed heart: and all those signs took place that day.
Da Shawulu ya juya zai bar Sama’ila, sai Allah ya canja wa Shawulu zuciya, alamun nan kuwa suka cika a ranar.
10 And when they came to Gibeah, a band of prophets came face to face with him; and the spirit of God came on him with power and he took his place among them as a prophet.
Da suka iso Gibeya, jerin gwanon annabawa suka sadu da shi Ruhun Allah kuma ya sauko a kansa da iko, sai ya shiga yin annabci tare da su.
11 Now when Saul's old friends saw him among the band of prophets, the people said to one another, What has come to Saul, the son of Kish? Is even Saul among the prophets?
Sa’ad da dukan waɗanda suka san shi a dā suka gan shi yana annabci tare da annabawa, sai suka tambayi juna, suka ce, “Me ya faru da ɗan Kish? Shawulu ma yana cikin annabawa ne?”
12 And one of the people of that place said in answer, And who is their father? So it became a common saying, Is even Saul among the prophets?
Wani mutumin da yake zama a can ya ce, “Wane ne kuma mahaifinsu?” Ta haka sai wannan ya zama karin magana cewa, “Shawulu ma yana cikin annabawa?”
13 Then going away from the prophets, he came to the house.
Bayan da Shawulu ya gama annabci sai ya haura ya tafi tudu.
14 And Saul's father's brother said to him and his servant, Where have you been? And he said, Searching for the asses: and when we saw no sign of them, we came to Samuel.
Sai ɗan’uwan mahaifin Shawulu ya tambaye shi da baransa ya ce, “Ina kuka je?” Shawulu ya ce, “Mun tafi neman jakuna, amma da ba mu same su ba sai muka tafi wurin Sama’ila.”
15 Then he said, And what did Samuel say to you?
Ɗan’uwan mahaifin Shawulu ya ce, “Faɗa mini abin da Sama’ila ya ce maka.”
16 And Saul, answering him, said, He gave us word that the asses had come back. But he said nothing to him of Samuel's words about the kingdom.
Shawulu ya ce, “Ya tabbatar mana cewa an riga an sami jakuna.” Amma bai gaya wa ɗan’uwan mahaifinsa abin da Sama’ila ya ce game da sarauta ba.
17 Then Samuel sent for the people to come together before the Lord at Mizpah;
Sama’ila ta tattara mutanen Isra’ila a gaban Ubangiji a Mizfa
18 And he said to the children of Israel, The Lord, the God of Israel, has said, I took Israel out of Egypt, and made you free from the hands of the Egyptians and from all the kingdoms which kept you down:
ya ce musu, “Ga abin da Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila ya ce, ‘Na fito da Isra’ila daga Masar, na kuma cece ku daga hannun Masarawa da dukan mulkokin da suka wahalshe ku.’
19 But today you are turned away from your God, who himself has been your saviour from all your troubles and sorrows; and you have said to him, Put a king over us. So now, take your places before the Lord by your tribes and by your thousands.
Amma yanzu kun ƙi Allahnku wanda ya cece ku daga dukan masifu da wahaloli. Kuka ce, ‘Sam, a naɗa mana sarki.’ Saboda haka yanzu sai ku zo gaban Ubangiji kabila-kabila da iyali-iyali.”
20 So Samuel made all the tribes of Israel come near, and the tribe of Benjamin was taken.
Sa’ad da Sama’ila ya kawo dukan Isra’ila gaba, kabila-kabila, sai aka zaɓi kabilar Benyamin ta wurin jefa ƙuri’a.
21 Then he made the tribe of Benjamin come near by families, and the family of the Matrites was taken: and from them, Saul, the son of Kish, was taken: but when they went in search of him he was nowhere to be seen.
Sai ya kawo kabilar Benyamin gaba, iyali-iyali, aka zaɓi iyalin Matri. A ƙarshe aka zaɓi Shawulu ɗan Kish. Amma da aka neme shi sai ba a same shi ba.
22 So they put another question to the Lord, Is the man present here? And the answer of the Lord was, He is keeping himself from view among the goods.
Suka ƙara nemi bayani daga Ubangiji suka ce, “Mutumin ya zo nan kuwa?” Ubangiji ya ce, “I, ga shi can, ya ɓuya cikin kayayyaki.”
23 So they went quickly and made him come out; and when he took his place among the people, he was taller by a head than any of the people.
Suka ruga suka kawo shi. Da ya tsaya cikin mutane, sai ya fi kowa tsayi.
24 And Samuel said to all the people, Do you see the man of the Lord's selection, how there is no other like him among all the people? And all the people with loud cries said, Long life to the king!
Sama’ila ya ce wa dukan mutane, “Kun ga wanda Ubangiji ya zaɓa ko? Ba wani kamar sa a cikin dukan mutane.” Sai mutane suka tā da murya suka ce, “Ran sarki yă daɗe.”
25 Then Samuel gave the people the laws of the kingdom, writing them in a book which he put in a safe place before the Lord. And Samuel sent all the people away, every man to his house.
Sama’ila kuwa ya bayyana wa mutane ƙa’idodin sarauta. Ya rubuta su cikin littafi ya ajiye a gaban Ubangiji. Sa’an nan ya sallame mutane, kowa ya koma gidansa.
26 And Saul went to Gibeah, to his house; and with him went the men of war whose hearts had been touched by God.
Shawulu ma ya tafi gidansa a Gibeya tare da waɗansu jarumawan da Allah ya taɓa zuciyarsu.
27 But certain good-for-nothing persons said, How is this man to be our saviour? And having no respect for him, they gave him no offering.
Amma waɗansu’yan iska suka ce, “Yaya wannan mutum zai iya cetonmu?” Suka rena shi suka ƙi su kawo masa kyautai. Amma Shawulu bai ce uffam ba.
