1 Samuel 4
1 And what Samuel had said happened to all Israel. And Israel went out against the Philistines to battle, and encamped beside Eben-ezer; and the Philistines encamped in Aphek.
Duk sa’ad da Sama’ila ya yi magana dukan Isra’ila sukan saurare shi. Isra’ilawa suka fita yaƙi da Filistiyawa. Isra’ilawa suka kafa sansani a Ebenezer, Filistiyawa kuma a Afek.
2 And the Philistines put themselves in array against Israel; and the battle spread, and Israel was routed before the Philistines; and they slew in battle array in the field about four thousand men.
Filistiyawa suka tunƙuro mayaƙansu domin su sadu da Isra’ilawa, yaƙi kuwa ya yi tsanani har Isra’ilawa suka sha kashi a hannun Filistiyawa. Filistiyawa suka kashe Isra’ilawa kusan mutum dubu huɗu a bakin dāgā.
3 And the people came into the camp; and the elders of Israel said, Why has Jehovah smitten us to-day before the Philistines? Let us fetch ourselves the ark of the covenant of Jehovah out of Shiloh, that it may come among us, and save us out of the hand of our enemies.
Lokacin da mayaƙan suka komo sansani, dattawan Isra’ilawa suka yi tambaya suka ce, “Me ya sa Ubangiji ya sa muka sha ɗibga a hannun Filistiyawa? Bari mu kawo akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji daga Shilo. Domin yă tafi tare da mu yă ba mu nasara kan abokan gābanmu.”
4 So the people sent to Shiloh, and they brought from thence the ark of the covenant of Jehovah of hosts, who sitteth between the cherubim; and the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, were there by the ark of the covenant of God.
Saboda haka mutanen suka aika waɗansu maza zuwa Shilo, suka kuwa tafi suka kawo akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji Maɗaukaki wanda yake zaune tsakanin Kerubobi.’Ya’yan Eli biyun nan Hofni da Finehas suna wurin tare da akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji.
5 And it came to pass when the ark of the covenant of Jehovah came into the camp, that all Israel shouted with a great shout, so that the earth shook.
Da aka shigo da akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji a cikin sansani, sai Isra’ilawa suka tā da babbar murya har ƙasa ta jijjiga.
6 And the Philistines heard the noise of the shout, and said, What is the noise of this great shout in the camp of the Hebrews? And they understood that the ark of Jehovah had come into the camp.
Da jin wannan, Filistiyawa suka yi tambaya suka ce, “Me ke kawo wannan ihu mai ƙarfi haka a sansanin Isra’ilawa?” Da suka gane cewa akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji ne ya shiga sansanin,
7 And the Philistines were afraid, for they said, God is come into the camp. And they said, Woe unto us! for there has not been such a thing heretofore.
sai Filistiyawa suka ji tsoro, suka ce, “Wani allah ya shiga cikin sansanin. Mun shiga uku! Ba a taɓa yin wani abu haka ba.
8 Woe unto us! who shall deliver us out of the hand of these mighty gods? these are the gods that smote the Egyptians with every plague in the wilderness.
Kaiton mu! Wa zai kuɓutar da mu daga hannun waɗannan manyan alloli? Su ne allolin da suka buga Masarawa da irin annoba masu yawa a jeji.
9 Shew yourselves valiant and be men, ye Philistines, that ye may not have to be servants to the Hebrews, as they have been servants to you: be men, and fight.
Ku yi ƙarfin hali, ku yi mazantaka, ku Filistiyawa, domin kada ku zama bayin Ibraniyawa kamar yadda suke a gare ku. Ku yi mazantaka, ku yi yaƙi.”
10 And the Philistines fought, and Israel was routed, and they fled every man to his tent; and there was a very great slaughter, and there fell of Israel thirty thousand footmen.
Saboda haka Filistiyawa suka yi yaƙi, Isra’ilawa kuwa suka sha ɗibga, kowane mutum kuwa ya gudu zuwa tentinsa. Kisan kuwa ya yi muni ƙwarai. Isra’ilawa sun rasa mayaƙa dubu talatin.
11 And the ark of God was taken; and the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, died.
Aka ƙwace akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji. Aka kuma kashe’ya’yan Eli biyu, Hofni da Finehas.
12 And there ran a man of Benjamin out of the battle, and came to Shiloh the same day, with his clothes rent and with earth upon his head.
A wannan rana wani mutumin Benyamin ya ruga da bakin dāgā ya shigo Shilo, taguwarsa a yage, kansa kuma a rufe da ƙasa.
13 And when he came, behold, Eli was sitting upon the seat by the way-side watching; for his heart trembled for the ark of God. And the man came to tell it in the city, and all the city cried out.
Da ya iso sai ga Eli zaune a kujera kusa da hanya yana kallo, domin tsoron da yake da shi saboda akwatin alkawarin Allah. Da mutumin ya shigo a garin ya ba da labarin abin da ya faru sai dukan gari ya ruɗe da ihu.
14 And Eli heard the noise of the crying, and said, What is the noise of this tumult? And the man came hastily, and told Eli.
Eli ya ji ihun ya yi tambaya ya ce, mene ne dalilin wannan ihu? Mutumin ya rugo wurin Eli,
15 Now Eli was ninety-eight years old; and his eyes were set, that he could not see.
wanda yake da shekaru tasa’in da takwas da haihuwa, idanunsa kuma ƙarfi ya ƙare, baya iya gani.
16 And the man said to Eli, I am he that came out of the battle, and I have fled to-day out of the battle. And he said, What has taken place, my son?
Mutumin ya gaya wa Eli cewa, “Shigowata ke nan daga bakin dāgā. Na kuɓuce daga can yau ɗin nan.” Eli ya ce, “Me ya faru da’ya’yana?”
17 And the messenger answered and said, Israel has fled before the Philistines, and there has been also a great slaughter among the people, and thy two sons also, Hophni and Phinehas, are dead, and the ark of God is taken.
Mutumin da ya kawo labarin ya ce, “Isra’ilawa sun gudu a gaban Filistiyawa, mayaƙan kuma sun sha mummunar ɗibga.’Ya’yanka Hofni da Finehas su ma sun mutu. Aka kuma ƙwace akwatin alkawarin Allah.”
18 And it came to pass, when he mentioned the ark of God, that he fell from off the seat backward by the side of the gate, and his neck broke, and he died; for the man was old, and heavy. And he had judged Israel forty years.
Da ya ambaci akwatin alkawarin Allah, sai Eli ya fāɗi da baya daga kujeransa kusa da ƙofa, wuyarsa ta karye, ya kuma mutu domin ya tsufa ƙwarai. Ya yi shugabancin Isra’ila shekaru arba’in.
19 And his daughter-in-law, Phinehas' wife, was with child, near to be delivered; and when she heard the tidings that the ark of God was taken, and that her father-in-law and her husband were dead, she bowed herself and travailed; for her pains came upon her.
Matar Finehas, ɗansa tana da ciki a lokacin ta kuma kusa haihuwa. Sa’ad da ta ji labari cewa an ƙwace akwatin alkawarin Allah, ta kuma labarin surukinta da mijinta sun mutu, sai ta shiga naƙuda, ta kuma haihu. Amma naƙuda ta sha ƙarfinta.
20 And as she was dying, the women that stood by her said, Fear not; for thou hast borne a son. But she did not answer, neither did she take it to heart.
Da tana mutuwa, matan da suke lura da ita suka ce, “Kada ki karaya kin haifi ɗa namiji.” Amma ba tă ba da amsa ko tă kula ba.
21 And she named the child Ichabod, saying, The glory is departed from Israel; because the ark of God was taken, and because of her father-in-law and her husband.
Ta ba wa yaron suna Ikabod, ma’ana “Ɗaukaka ta rabu da Isra’ila”, domin an ƙwace akwatin alkawarin Allah, domin kuma mutuwar surukinta da na mijinta.
22 And she said, The glory is departed from Israel, for the ark of God is taken.
Ta ce, “Ɗaukaka ta rabu da Isra’ila, gama an ƙwace akwatin alkawarin Allah.”
