< Genesis 15 >
1 After these things the word of Jehovah came to Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram; I am thy shield, thy exceeding great reward.
Bayan wannan, maganar Ubangiji ta zo wa Abram cikin mafarki cewa, “Kada ka ji tsoro, Abram. Ni ne garkuwarka, kuma ladanka zai zama mai girma.”
2 And Abram said, Lord Jehovah, what wilt thou give me? seeing I go childless, and the steward of my house is this Eliezer of Damascus.
Amma Abram ya ce, “Ya Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka, mene ne za ka ba ni, ganin cewa ba na haihuwa, wanda kuma zai gāji gādon gidana shi ne Eliyezer mutumin Damaskus?”
3 And Abram said, Lo, to me thou hast given no seed, and behold, a son of my house will be mine heir.
Abram ya kuma ce, “Ga shi ba ka ba ni ɗa ba, don haka bawan da aka haifa a gidana ne zai zama magājina.”
4 And behold, the word of Jehovah [came] to him, saying, This shall not be thine heir, but he that will come forth out of thy body shall be thine heir.
Sa’an nan maganar Ubangiji ta zo gare shi cewa, “Wannan mutum ba zai zama magājinka ba, ɗa da yake zuwa daga jikinka ne zai zama magājinka.”
5 And he led him out, and said, Look now toward the heavens, and number the stars, if thou be able to number them. And he said to him, So shall thy seed be!
Sai Ubangiji ya fito da kai shi waje ya ce, “Ka dubi sammai ka kuma ƙirga taurari, in har za ka iya ƙirga su.” Sa’an nan ya ce masa, “Haka zuriyarka za tă zama.”
6 And he believed Jehovah; and he reckoned it to him [as] righteousness.
Abram ya gaskata, Ubangiji kuma ya lasafta shi adalci ga Abram.
7 And he said to him, I am Jehovah who brought thee out of Ur of the Chaldeans, to give thee this land to possess it.
Ubangiji ya kuma ce wa Abram, “Ni ne Ubangiji wanda ya fitar da kai daga Ur na Kaldiyawa, domin in ba ka wannan ƙasa ka mallake ta.”
8 And he said, Lord Jehovah, how shall I know that I shall possess it?
Amma Abram ya ce, “Ya Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka, yaya zan san cewa zan mallake ta?”
9 And he said to him, Take me a heifer of three years old, and a she-goat of three years old, and a ram of three years old, and a turtle-dove, and a young pigeon.
Saboda haka Allah ya ce masa, “Kawo mini karsana, akuya, da kuma rago kowanne yă kasance shi shekara uku ne, da kurciya da kuma ɗan tattabara.”
10 And he took all these, and divided them in the midst, and laid the half of each opposite its fellow; but the birds he did not divide.
Abram ya kawo waɗannan duka a gaban Allah, ya raba kowannensu a tsakiya, ya ajiye su gab da juna, amma bai tsaga tsuntsayen a tsaka ba.
11 And the birds of prey came down on the carcases; and Abram scared them away.
Sai tsuntsaye masu cin nama suka sauko a kan gawawwakin, amma Abram ya kore su.
12 And as the sun was just going down, a deep sleep fell upon Abram; and behold, a horror, a great darkness, fell upon him.
Yayinda rana tana fāɗuwa, sai Abram ya yi barci mai zurfi, sai wani duhu mai kauri mai kuma bantsoro ya rufe shi.
13 And he said to Abram, Know assuredly that thy seed will be a sojourner in a land [that is] not theirs, and they shall serve them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years.
Sa’an nan Ubangiji ya ce wa Abram, “Ka sani tabbatacce cewa shekaru ɗari huɗu, zuriyarka za tă zama baƙi a ƙasar da ba tasu ba, za a mai da su bayi, a kuma wulaƙanta su.
14 But also that nation which they shall serve I will judge; and afterwards they shall come out with great property.
Amma zan hukunta al’ummar da suka yi bauta kamar bayi, daga baya kuma za su fita da mallaka mai yawa.
15 And thou shalt go to thy fathers in peace; thou shalt be buried in a good old age.
Amma kai za ka koma wurin kakanninka cikin salama a kuma binne ka da kyakkyawan tsufa.
16 And [in the] fourth generation they shall come hither again; for the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet full.
A tsara ta huɗu zuriyarka za tă komo nan, saboda zunubin Amoriyawa bai riga ya cika ba.”
17 And it came to pass when the sun had gone down, and it was dark, that behold, there was a smoking furnace, and a flame of fire which passed between those pieces.
Sa’ad da rana ta fāɗi, aka kuwa yi duhu, sai wata tukunya mai hayaƙi, mai harshen wuta mai ci, ta bayyana, ta kuma wuce tsakanin abubuwan nan da aka tsaga.
18 On the same day Jehovah made a covenant with Abram, saying, Unto thy seed I give this land, from the river of Egypt to the great river, the river Euphrates;
A wannan rana, Ubangiji ya yi alkawari da Abram ya ce, “Ga zuriyarka na ba da wannan ƙasa, daga kogin Masar zuwa babban kogi, Yuferites ke nan,
19 the Kenites, and the Kenizzites, and the Kadmonites,
ƙasar Keniyawa, Kenizziyawa, Kadmoniyawa,
20 and the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Rephaim,
Hittiyawa, Ferizziyawa, Refahiyawa,
21 and the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Girgashites, and the Jebusites.
Amoriyawa, Kan’aniyawa, Girgashiyawa da kuma Yebusiyawa.”
