< 1 Samuel 21 >
1 And David came to Nob, to Ahimelech the priest; and Ahimelech trembled at meeting David, and said to him, Why art thou alone, and no man with thee?
Dawuda ya tafi Nob a wurin Ahimelek firist. Da Ahimelek ya gan shi sai ya firgita ya ce, “Me ya sa kai kaɗai ne? Me ya sa ba wani tare da kai?”
2 And David said to Ahimelech the priest, The king has commanded me a business, and has said to me, Let no man know anything of the business whereon I send thee, and what I have commanded thee; and I have directed the young men to such and such a place.
Dawuda ya ce wa Ahimelek firist, “Na zo aikin sarki ne, ya kuwa ce kada in sanar wa kowa abin da ya sa in yi. Na faɗa wa mutanena inda za su same ni.
3 And now what is under thy hand? give me five loaves in my hand, or what may be found.
Yanzu, me kake da shi a hannu? Ka ba ni burodi guda biyar, ko wani abu da kake da shi a nan.”
4 And the priest answered David and said, There is no common bread under my hand, but there is holy bread; if the young men have kept themselves at least from women.
Amma firist ya ce wa Dawuda, “Ba ni da burodi iri na kowa da kowa, sai dai akwai burodin da aka tsarkake. Za ka iya ɗauka ku ci idan mutanenka ba su kwana da mata ba.”
5 And David answered the priest and said to him, Yes indeed, women have been kept from us about these three days, since I came out, and the vessels of the young men are holy, and the [bread] is in a manner common, and the more so, because to-day [new] is hallowed in the vessels.
Dawuda ya ce, “Lalle ne a keɓe muke daga mata. Mutanena sukan keɓe kansu a koyaushe suka tashi’yar tafiya, balle fa a yau!”
6 And the priest gave him holy [bread]; for there was no bread there but the shew-loaves that were taken from before Jehovah, to put on hot bread in the day when they were taken away.
Don haka firist ya ba shi keɓaɓɓen burodi, tun da yake babu wani burodi a can sai dai burodin Kasancewa da aka cire daga gaban Ubangiji, aka sa burodi mai zafi a maimakon wanda aka cire a ranar.
7 (Now a certain man of the servants of Saul was there that day, detained before Jehovah; and his name was Doeg, the Edomite, chief of the shepherds that [belonged] to Saul.)
A ranar kuwa, ɗaya daga cikin bayin Shawulu yana can, a tsare a gaban Ubangiji, sunansa Doyeg, mutumin Edom, shugaban makiyayan Shawulu.
8 And David said to Ahimelech, And is there not here under thy hand spear or sword? for I have neither brought my sword nor my weapons with me, for the king's business was urgent.
Dawuda ya ce wa Ahimelek, “Ba ka da māshi ko takobi a nan? Ban kawo māshina ko wani makami ba gama saƙon sarki ya zo mini da gaggawa.”
9 And the priest said, The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom thou slewest in the valley of terebinths, behold, it is here wrapped in a cloth behind the ephod; if thou wilt take that, take it; for there is no other save that here. And David said, There is none like that: give it me.
Sai firist ya ce, “Takobin Goliyat Bafilistin nan wanda ka kashe a Kwarin Ela yana nan. An naɗe shi da ƙyallen aka ajiye a bayan Efod, in kana so, sai ka ɗauka. Ba wani takobi kuma sai wancan.” Dawuda ya ce, “Ba ni shi, ai, ba wani kamar sa.”
10 And David arose, and fled that day from before Saul, and went to Achish the king of Gath.
A ranar, Dawuda ya gudu daga wajen Shawulu ya tafi wuri Akish sarkin Gat.
11 And the servants of Achish said to him, Is not this David the king of the land? did they not sing one to another of him in dances, saying, Saul has smitten his thousands, and David his ten thousands?
Amma bayin Akish suka ce masa, “Wannan ba shi ne Dawuda sarkin ƙasar ba? Ashe, ba shi ne aka yi ta yin waƙoƙi a kansa, ana raye-raye, ana cewa, “Shawulu ya kashe dubbai, Dawuda kuwa ya kashe dubun dubbai?”
12 And David took to heart these words, and was much afraid of Achish the king of Gath.
Dawuda ya riƙe waɗannan kalmomi a zuciyarsa, ya kuma ji tsoron Akish sarkin Gat sosai.
13 And he changed his behaviour before them, and feigned himself mad in their hands, and scratched on the doors of the gate, and let his spittle fall down on his beard.
Don haka sai ya yi kamar ya taɓu a gabansu. A duk lokacin da yake tare da su, sai yă yi kamar ya haukace. Ya yi ta zāne-zāne a ƙofofi, ya bar miyau yana ta bin gemunsa.
14 And Achish said to his servants, Behold, ye see the man is mad: why did ye bring him to me?
Akish ya ce wa bayinsa, “Duba, wannan mutum yana hauka. Me ya sa kuka kawo shi a wurina?
15 have I lack of madmen, that ye have brought this one to rave in my presence? shall this [man] come into my house?
Na rasa masu hauka ne da za ku kawo mini wannan mutum yă yi ta hauka a gabana? Dole ne wannan mutum yă shiga gidana?”
