Judges 3
1 And these are the nations that Jehovah left, to prove Israel by them, all that had not known all the wars of Canaan;
Waɗannan su ne al’umman da Ubangiji ya bari don yă gwada duk waɗannan Isra’ilawan da ba su san yaƙi a Kan’ana ba
2 only that the generations of the children of Israel might know war by learning it, at the least those who before had known nothing thereof:
(ya yi haka ne domin yă koya wa zuriyar Isra’ilawa waɗanda ba su taɓa yin yaƙi a dā ba),
3 five lord ships of the Philistines, and all the Canaanites, and the Sidonians, and the Hivites that dwell on mount Lebanon; from mount Baal-Hermon unto the entering into Hamath.
sarakuna biyar na Filistiyawa, dukan Kan’aniyawa, Sidoniyawa, da kuma Hiwiyawan da suke zaune a duwatsun Lebanon daga Dutsen Ba’al-Hermon zuwa Lebo Hamat.
4 And they were to prove Israel by them, to know whether they would obey the commandments of Jehovah, which he commanded their fathers by the hand of Moses.
An bar su domin su gwada Isra’ilawa a ga ko za su yi biyayya da umarnin Ubangiji, wanda ya ba wa kakanninsu ta wurin Musa.
5 And the children of Israel dwelt among the Canaanites: Hittites and Amorites and Perizzites and Hivites and Jebusites;
Isra’ilawa suka zauna tare da Kan’aniyawa da Hittiyawa, Amoriyawa, Ferizziyawa, Hiwiyawa da kuma Yebusiyawa.
6 and they took their daughters as wives, and gave their daughters to their sons, and served their gods.
Suka auri’ya’yansu mata, su ma suka bar’ya’yansu maza suka auri’ya’yansu mata, suka kuma yi wa gumakansu sujada.
7 And the children of Israel did evil in the sight of Jehovah, and forgot Jehovah their God, and served the Baals and the Asherahs.
Isra’ilawa suka aikata mugunta a gaban Ubangiji; suka manta da Ubangiji Allahnsu suka kuma bauta wa Ba’al da Ashera.
8 And the anger of Jehovah was hot against Israel, and he sold them into the hand of Chushan-rishathaim king of Mesopotamia; and the children of Israel served Chushan-rishathaim eight years.
Fushin Ubangiji kuwa ya yi ƙuna a kan Isra’ila har ya sayar da su ga Kushan-Rishatayim sarkin Aram-Naharayim, a wurinsa ne Isra’ilawa suka zama bayi shekara takwas.
9 And the children of Israel cried to Jehovah; and Jehovah raised up a saviour to the children of Israel, who saved them, Othniel the son of Kenaz, Caleb's younger brother.
Amma da suka yi kuka ga Ubangiji, sai ya tad musu da mai ceto, Otniyel ɗan Kenaz, ƙanen Kaleb wanda ya cece su.
10 And the Spirit of Jehovah was upon him, and he judged Israel; and he went out to war, and Jehovah gave Chushan-rishathaim king of Syria into his hand; and his hand prevailed against Chushan-rishathaim.
Ruhun Ubangiji ya sauko masa, domin yă zama mahukuncin Isra’ila yă kuma je yaƙi. Ubangiji ya bayar da Kushan-Rishatayim sarkin Aram a hannun Otniyel, ya kuwa sha ƙarfinsa.
11 And the land had rest forty years; and Othniel the son of Kenaz died.
Saboda haka ƙasar ta zauna da lafiya shekara arba’in har sai da Otniyel ɗan Kenaz ya rasu.
12 And the children of Israel again did evil in the sight of Jehovah; and Jehovah strengthened Eglon the king of Moab against Israel, because they did evil in the sight of Jehovah.
Isra’ilawa suka sāke aikata mugayen ayyuka a gaban Ubangiji, saboda sun aikata wannan mugunta sai Ubangiji ya ba wa Eglon sarkin Mowab ƙarfi a kan Isra’ila.
13 And he gathered to him the children of Ammon and Amalek and went and smote Israel, and they took possession of the city of palm-trees.
Da ya sami Ammonawa da Amalekawa suka haɗa hannu tare, sai Eglon ya tafi ya auka wa Isra’ila, suka ƙwace Birnin Dabino.
14 And the children of Israel served Eglon the king of Moab eighteen years.
Isra’ilawa suka zama bayin Eglon sarkin Mowab shekara goma sha takwas.
15 And the children of Israel cried to Jehovah, and Jehovah raised them up a saviour, Ehud the son of Gera, the Benjaminite, a man left-handed. And by him the children of Israel sent a gift to Eglon king of Moab.
Isra’ilawa suka sāke yin kuka ga Ubangiji, ya kuwa ba su mai ceto, Ehud, wani bahago, ɗan Gera daga kabilar Benyamin. Isra’ilawa suka aike shi da haraji wurin Eglon sarkin Mowab.
16 And Ehud made him a sword having two edges, it was of a cubit length; and he girded it under his raiment upon his right hip.
To, Ehud ya riga ya ƙera takobi mai kaifi biyu mai tsawo wajen kamu ɗaya da rabi, wanda ya yi ɗamara da shi a cinyarsa ta dama ƙarƙashin rigarsa.
17 And he brought the gift to Eglon king of Moab; now Eglon was a very fat man.
Ya kai wa Eglon sarkin Mowab harajin, wanda yake mai ƙiba ne.
18 And it came to pass when he had ended offering the gift, he sent away the people that had borne the gift.
Bayan Ehud ya ba da harajin, sai ya sallame mutanen da suka ɗauko harajin.
19 But he turned from the graven images that were by Gilgal, and said, I have a secret word unto thee, O king. And he said, Be silent! And all that stood by him went out from him.
A wajen gumaka kusa da Gilgal, shi kansa ya juya ya koma ya ce, “Ranka yă daɗe, ina da saƙo na asiri dominka.” Sarkin ya ce, “Ku ba mu wuri!” Sai dukan fadawansa suka fita.
20 And Ehud came to him; now he was sitting in the cool upper-chamber, which was for him alone. And Ehud said, I have a word from God unto thee. And he arose from the seat.
Sai Ehud ya matso yayinda shi kuwa yake zaune shi kaɗai a ɗakin sama mai sanyi a fadansa ya ce, “Ina da saƙo daga wurin Allah dominka.” Sarki ya tashi daga kujerarsa,
21 Then Ehud put forth his left hand, and took the sword from his right hip, and thrust it into his belly;
Ehud ya kai hannun hagunsa, ya zaro takobi daga cinyar ƙafar damansa ya soki sarki a ciki.
22 and the haft also went in after the blade, and the fat closed upon the blade; for he did not draw the sword out of his belly, and it came out between the legs.
Har ƙotar ma ta shige ciki, takobin kuma ya fito ta bayansa. Ehud bai zare takobin ba, kitse kuwa ya rufe shi.
23 And Ehud went out into the portico, and shut the doors of the upper-chamber upon him, and bolted them.
Sa’an nan Ehud ya fita daga shirayin; ya rufe ƙofar ɗakin saman, ya kuma kulle su.
24 And when he was gone out, the servants of the [king] came and saw, and behold, the doors of the upper-chamber were bolted. And they said, Surely he is covering his feet in the summer chamber.
Bayan da ya tafi, bayin sarki suka zo suka tarar duk ƙofofin ɗakin sama suna kulle, suka ce, “Wataƙila yana bayan gari ne a ɗakin ciki.”
25 And they waited till they were ashamed; and behold, he opened not the doors of the upper-chamber, and they took the key, and opened [them], and behold, their lord lay dead on the earth.
Suka yi ta jira har suka gaji. Da suka ga dai bai buɗe ƙofar ba, sai suka ɗauki mabuɗi, suka buɗe. Sai ga shugabansu a ƙasa matacce.
26 And Ehud had escaped while they lingered, and passed beyond the graven images, and escaped to Seirah.
Yayinda suke fama jira, Ehud ya riga ya yi gaba. Ya bi ta wajen gumaka zuwa Seyira.
27 And it came to pass when he was come, that he blew a trumpet in the hill-country of Ephraim, and the children of Israel went down with him from the hill-country, and he before them.
Da ya iso can, sai ya busa ƙaho a ƙasar tudu ta Efraim, Isra’ilawa kuma suka gangaro tare da shi daga tuddai, shi kuwa yana jagorarsu.
28 And he said to them, Follow after me, for Jehovah has delivered your enemies the Moabites into your hand. And they went down after him, and took the fords of the Jordan toward Moab, and suffered no one to pass over.
Ya umarce su ya ce, “Ku bi ni, gama Ubangiji ya ba Mowab abokin gābanku a hannunku.” Haka suka gangaro tare da shi suna mallaki mashigin Urdun da ta shiga zuwa Mowab, ba su yarda wani ya haye ba.
29 And they slew the Moabites at that time, about ten thousand men, all fat, and all men of valour, and not a man escaped.
A lokacin sun kashe mutanen Mowab dubu goma, dukansu jarumawa da masu ji da ƙarfi; ba ko ɗaya da ya tsira.
30 And Moab was subdued that day under the hand of Israel. And the land had rest eighty years.
A wannan rana aka mai da Mowab bayin Isra’ila, ƙasar kuwa ta sami zaman lafiya shekara takwas.
31 And after him was Shamgar the son of Anath; and he smote the Philistines, six hundred men, with an ox-goad. And he also delivered Israel.
Bayan Ehud, sai Shamgar ɗan Anat, wanda ya karkashe Filistiyawa ɗari shida da sandar korar shanun noma, shi ma ya ceci Isra’ila.
