1 Samuel 5
1 And the Philistines took the ark of God, and brought it from Eben-ezer to Ashdod.
Bayan Filistiyawa sun ƙwace akwatin alkawarin Allah, sai suka ɗauke shi daga Ebenezer suka kai shi Ashdod.
2 And the Philistines took the ark of God and brought it into the house of Dagon, and set it by Dagon.
Sa’an nan suka ɗauki akwatin alkawarin suka kai shi cikin haikalin gunkinsu Dagon, suka ajiye kusa da Dagon.
3 And when they of Ashdod arose early the next day, behold, Dagon had fallen on his face to the ground before the ark of Jehovah. And they took Dagon, and set him in his place again.
Kashegari da safe da mutanen Ashdod suka farka sai ga Dagon ya fāɗi a gaban akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji. Sai suka ɗauki Dagon suka ajiye a wurin zamansa.
4 And when they arose early the next morning, behold, Dagon had fallen on his face to the ground before the ark of Jehovah; and the head of Dagon and both the palms of his hands were cut off upon the threshold; only the fish-stump was left to him.
Amma kashegari kuma da safe suka farka sai ga Dagon ya fāɗi a ƙasa a gaban akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji! Kansa ya fashe, hannuwansa kuma sun kakkarye sun zube a madogarar ƙofa; jikinsa ne kaɗai ya rage.
5 Therefore neither the priests of Dagon nor any that come into Dagon's house tread on the threshold of Dagon in Ashdod to this day.
Saboda haka firistocin Dagon da waɗanda suke sujada a haikalin Dagon ba sa taka bakin ƙofar Dagon a Ashdod har wa yau.
6 And the hand of Jehovah was heavy upon them of Ashdod, and he laid them waste, and smote them with hemorrhoids, — Ashdod and its borders.
Hannun Ubangiji kuwa ya yi nauyi a bisa Ashdod da kewayenta. Ya kawo hallaka ga dukansu, ya kuma buga su da marurai.
7 And when the men of Ashdod saw that it was so, they said, The ark of the God of Israel shall not abide with us; for his hand is severe upon us, and upon Dagon our god.
Da mutanen Ashdod suka ga abin da yake faruwa, sai suka ce, “Lalle Akwatin Alkawarin Allah na Isra’ila ba zai kasance da mu ba, domin hannunsa yana da nauyi a kanmu da bisan Dagon allahnmu.”
8 And they sent and gathered all the lords of the Philistines unto them, and said, What shall we do with the ark of the God of Israel? And they said, Let the ark of the God of Israel be carried about to Gath. And they carried the ark of the God of Israel about [thither].
Saboda haka suka kira duka shugabannin Filistiyawa suka tambaye su, suka ce, “Me za mu da akwatin alkawarin Allahn Isra’ila?” Sai suka amsa suka ce, “A ɗauki akwatin alkawarin Allah na Isra’ila a kai shi Gat.” Sai suka ɗauki akwatin alkawarin Allah na Isra’ila.
9 And it came to pass that, after they had carried it about, the hand of Jehovah was against the city with very great panic; and he smote the men of the city, both small and great, and hemorrhoids broke out upon them.
Amma bayan sun kai shi can, sai hannun Ubangiji ya yi gāba da birnin, aka jefa shi cikin wani mawuyacin hali. Ya buga mutanen birnin da marurai, babba da yaro.
10 And they sent the ark of God to Ekron. And it came to pass, when the ark of God came to Ekron, that the Ekronites cried out, saying, They have brought about the ark of the God of Israel to us, to kill us and our people.
Sai suka aika da akwatin alkawarin Allah zuwa Ekron. Yayinda akwatin alkawarin Allah yana shiga cikin Ekron, mutanen Ekron suka yi ihu, suka ce, “An kawo mana akwatin alkawarin Allah na Isra’ila domin yă kashe mu da mutanenmu.”
11 And they sent and gathered all the lords of the Philistines, and said, Send away the ark of the God of Israel, and let it go again to its own place, that it kill us not, and our people. For there was deadly alarm throughout the city: the hand of God was very heavy there;
Saboda haka suka kira ga dukan shugabannin Filistiyawa suka ce, “Ku komar da akwatin alkawarin Allah na Isra’ila inda ya fito; in ba haka ba zai kashe mu da mutanenmu.” Gama mutuwa ta cika garin da tsoro. Hannun Allah ya yi nauyi a kansa.
12 and the men that died not were smitten with the hemorrhoids; and the cry of the city went up to heaven.
Waɗanda ba su mutu ba kuwa, sun kamu da marurai. Kukan birnin kuwa ta hau har zuwa sama.
