Judges 6
1 And the children of Israel did evil in the sight of Jehovah; and Jehovah delivered them into the hand of Midian seven years.
Isra’ilawa suka sāke yin mugayen ayyuka a gaban Ubangiji, sai ya ba da su ga Midiyawa shekara bakwai.
2 And the hand of Midian prevailed against Israel. Because of the Midianites the children of Israel made for themselves the dens that are in the mountains, and the caves, and the strongholds.
Da Midiyawa suka matsa musu sosai, sai Isra’ilawa suka yi wa kansu mafakai a rammukan duwatsu, kogona da kuma mafaka.
3 And it came to pass when Israel sowed, that Midian came up, and Amalek, and the children of the east, and came up against them.
Duk lokacin da Isra’ilawa suka yi shuka sai Midiyawa da Amalekawa da waɗansu mutane daga gabashi sukan kai musu hari.
4 And they encamped against them, and destroyed the produce of the land, until thou come to Gazah, and they left no sustenance in Israel, neither sheep, nor ox, nor ass.
Sukan yi sansani a ƙasar sun lalatar da hatsi har zuwa Gaza kuma ba sa barin wani abu mai rai wa Isra’ila, ko tumaki ko shanu ko jakuna.
5 For they came up with their cattle and their tents, and they came as locusts for multitude; both they and their camels were without number; and they entered into the land to destroy it.
Sukan zo da dabbobinsu da tentinsu kamar tarin fāri. Yana da wuya a ƙidaya yawan mutanen da kuma raƙumansu; sukan mamaye ƙasar don su lalatar da ita.
6 And Israel was greatly impoverished because of Midian. And the children of Israel cried to Jehovah.
Midiyawa suka talauce Isra’ilawa ƙwarai, har ya sa suka yi kuka ga Ubangiji don taimako.
7 And it came to pass when the children of Israel cried to Jehovah because of Midian,
Sa’ad da Isra’ilawa suka yi kuka ga Ubangiji saboda Midiyawa,
8 that Jehovah sent a prophet to the children of Israel, who said to them, Thus saith Jehovah the God of Israel: I brought you up from Egypt, and brought you forth out of the house of bondage;
sai ya aika musu da annabi, wanda ya ce, “Ga abin da Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila ya ce na fitar da ku daga Masar, daga ƙasar bauta.
9 and I delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians, and out of the hand of all that oppressed you, and drove them out from before you, and gave you their land,
Na ƙwace ku daga ikon Masarawa da kuma daga dukan hannuwan masu danniya. Na kore su a gabanku na kuma ba ku ƙasarsu.
10 and I said to you, I am Jehovah your God; fear not the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell. But ye have not hearkened to my voice.
Na ce muku, ‘Ni ne Ubangiji Allahnku; kada ku bauta allolin Amoriyawa, waɗanda kuke zama a ƙasarsu.’ Amma ba ku saurare ni ba.”
11 And an angel of Jehovah came and sat under the terebinth that was in Ophrah, that [belonged] to Joash the Abi-ezrite. And his son Gideon threshed wheat in the winepress, to secure [it] from the Midianites.
Sai mala’ikan Ubangiji ya zo ya zauna a ƙarƙashin itacen oak a Ofra na Yowash mutumin Abiyezer, inda ɗansa Gideyon yake sussukar alkama a wurin matsin inabi don yă ɓoye daga Midiyawa.
12 And the Angel of Jehovah appeared to him, and said to him, Jehovah is with thee, thou mighty man of valour.
Sa’ad da mala’ikan Ubangiji ya bayyana wa Gideyon, sai ya ce masa, “Ubangiji yana tare da kai, jarumi.”
13 And Gideon said to him, Ah my Lord, if Jehovah be with us, why then is all this befallen us? and where are all his miracles that our fathers told us of, saying, Did not Jehovah bring us up from Egypt? And now Jehovah hath cast us off, and given us into the hand of Midian.
Gideyon ya ce, “Ranka yă daɗe, in Ubangiji yana tare da mu, me ya sa waɗannan abubuwa suka faru da mu? Ina dukan abubuwan al’ajabinsa waɗanda kakanninmu suka gaya mana game su sa’ad da suka ce, ‘Ashe, ba Ubangiji ne ya fitar da mu daga Masar ba?’ Amma yanzu Ubangiji ya rabu da mu ya kuma sa mu hannun Midiyawa.”
14 And Jehovah looked upon him, and said, Go in this thy might, and thou shalt save Israel from the hand of Midian. Have not I sent thee?
Sai Ubangiji ya juya wajensa ya ce, “Ka je da ƙarfin da kake da shi ka ceci Isra’ila daga hannun Midiyawa. Ba Ni ne nake aikan ka ba?”
15 And he said to him, Ah Lord, wherewith shall I save Israel? behold, my thousand is the poorest in Manasseh, and I am the least in my father's house.
Gideyon ya ce, “Amma Ubangiji, yaya zan iya ceci Isra’ila? Kabilata ce marar ƙarfi duka a Manasse, kuma ni ne ƙarami a iyalina.”
16 And Jehovah said to him, I will certainly be with thee; and thou shalt smite Midian as one man.
Ubangiji ya ce, “Zan kasance tare da kai, za ka kuwa fatattake dukan Midiyawa gaba ɗaya.”
17 And he said to him, If now I have found favour in thine eyes, shew me a sign that it is thou who talkest with me.
Gideyon ya ce, “In lalle na sami tagomashi a gabanka, to, ka ba ni wata alamar da ta nuna lalle kai kake magana da ni.
18 Depart not hence, I pray thee, until I come unto thee, and bring forth my present, and set it before thee. And he said, I will tarry until thou come again.
Ina roƙonka ka dakata har in komo in kawo maka hadayata in ajiye a gabanka.” Sai Ubangiji ya ce, “Zan jira har ka dawo.”
19 And Gideon went in, and made ready a kid of the goats, and an ephah of flour in unleavened cakes: the flesh he put in a basket, and he put the broth in a pot, and brought it out to him under the terebinth, and presented it.
Sai Gideyon ya shiga ciki, ya gyara’yar akuya ya dafa, da garin efa ya yi burodi marar yisti. Da ya sa naman a kwando, romon kuma a tukunya, sai ya fito da su waje ya miƙa masa su a ƙarƙashin itacen oak.
20 And the Angel of God said to him, Take the flesh and the unleavened cakes, and lay them upon this rock, and pour out the broth. And he did so.
Mala’ikan Allah ya ce masa, “Ka ɗauko naman da burodi marar yisti ka sa su a kan wannan dutse, ka zuba romon a kai.” Gideyon kuwa ya yi haka.
21 And the Angel of Jehovah put forth the end of the staff that was in his hand, and touched the flesh and the unleavened cakes; and there rose up fire out of the rock, and consumed the flesh and the unleavened cakes. And the Angel of Jehovah departed out of his sight.
Da kan sandan da yake a hannunsa, mala’ikan Ubangiji ya taɓa naman da burodi marar yistin. Sai wuta ta fito daga dutsen ta cinye naman da burodin. Mala’ikan kuwa ya ɓace.
22 And Gideon perceived that he was an angel of Jehovah; and Gideon said, Alas, Lord Jehovah! for because I have seen an angel of Jehovah face to face...
Sa’ad da Gideyon ya gane mala’ikan Ubangiji ne, sai ya ce, “Ya Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka! Na ga mala’ikan Ubangiji ido da ido.”
23 And Jehovah said to him, Peace be unto thee: fear not; thou shalt not die.
Amma Ubangiji ya ce masa, “Salama! Kada ka ji tsoro, ba za ka mutu ba.”
24 And Gideon built there an altar to Jehovah, and called it Jehovah-shalom. To this day it is yet in Ophrah of the Abi-ezrites.
Saboda haka Gideyon ya gina wa Ubangiji bagade a can, ya kuma kira shi, Ubangiji Salama ne. Har wa yau bagaden yana a Ofra ta mutanen Abiyezer.
25 And it came to pass the same night, that Jehovah said to him, Take the young bullock, which thy father hath, even the second bullock of seven years old, and throw down the altar of Baal that thy father hath, and cut down the Asherah that is by it;
A wannan dare Ubangiji ya ce masa, “Ka ɗauki bijimi na biyu daga garken mahaifinka, wannan mai shekara bakwai. Ka rushe bagaden mahaifinka na Ba’al ka sare ginshiƙin Ashera kusa da ita.
26 and build an altar to Jehovah thy God upon the top of this strong place in the ordered manner, and take the second bullock, and offer up a burnt-offering with the wood of the Asherah that thou shalt cut down.
Sa’an nan ka gina bagade irin da ya dace wa Ubangiji Allahnka a kan wannan tudu. Ka yi amfani da itacen katakon ginshiƙin Ashera da ka sare, ka miƙa bijiman nan biyu hadaya ta ƙonawa.”
27 And Gideon took ten men of his servants, and did as Jehovah had said to him. And it came to pass, because he feared his father's house, and the men of the city, if he did it by day, that he did it by night.
Saboda haka Gideyon ya ɗebi bayinsa bakwai ya yi yadda Ubangiji ya ce masa. Amma saboda yana tsoron iyalinsa da mutanen gari, ya yi haka da dare a maimako da rana.
28 And when the men of the city arose early in the morning, behold, the altar of Baal was broken down, and the Asherah was cut down that was by it, and the second bullock was offered up upon the altar that was built.
Da safe sa’ad da mutanen garin suka tashi, sai suka tarar an rushe bagaden Ba’al, tare da ginshiƙin Ashera da yake kusa da shi, duk an sare, bijimi na biyu kuma aka miƙa hadaya a kan sabon bagaden!
29 And they said one to another, Who has done this thing? And when they inquired and asked, they said, Gideon the son of Joash has done this thing.
Sai suka tambayi junansu, “Wa ya yi wannan?” Sa’ad da suka bincika a hankali, sai aka faɗa musu, “Gideyon ɗan Yowash ne ya yi haka.”
30 And the men of the city said to Joash, Bring out thy son, that he may die, because he has broken down the altar of Baal, and because he has cut down the Asherah that was by it.
Mutanen garin suka ce wa Yowash, “Ka kawo mana ɗanka. Dole yă mutu, domin ya rushe bagaden Ba’al, ya sare ginshiƙin Asheran da yake tsaye kusa da shi.”
31 And Joash said to all that stood near him, Will ye contend for Baal? or will ye save him? he that contends for him, let him be put to death whilst it is yet morning. If he be a god, let him plead for himself, because they have broken down his altar.
Amma Yowash ya ce wa taron da suka tayar masa, “Za ku yi hamayya domin Ba’al ne? Kuna ƙoƙari ku cece shi ne? Duk wanda ya yi faɗa saboda shi za a kashe shi kafin safe. In lalle Ba’al allah ne, zai kāre kansa sa’ad da wani ya rushe bagadensa.”
32 And on that day they called him Jerubbaal, saying, Let Baal plead with him, because he has broken down his altar.
Saboda haka a ranar suka kira Gideyon, “Yerub-Ba’al,” suna cewa, “Bari Ba’al ya yi hamayya da shi,” domin ya rushe bagaden Ba’al.
33 And all Midian and Amalek and the children of the east were gathered together, and went over, and encamped in the valley of Jezreel.
To, dukan Midiyawa, Amalekawa da sauran mutanen gabashi suka haɗa ƙarfi suka ƙetare Urdun suka kafa sansani a Kwarin Yezireyel.
34 And the Spirit of Jehovah came upon Gideon, and he blew the trumpet, and the Abi-ezrites were gathered after him.
Sa’an nan Ruhun Ubangiji ya sauko wa Gideyon, ya kuma busa ƙaho, ya kira mutanen Abiyezer su bi shi.
35 And he sent messengers throughout Manasseh, and they also were gathered after him; and he sent messengers to Asher, and to Zebulun, and to Naphtali; and they came up to meet them.
Ya aika manzanni ko’ina a Manasse, yana kiransu su kintsa, haka ma Asher, Zebulun da Naftali, ta haka su ma suka haura su sadu da su.
36 And Gideon said to God, If thou wilt save Israel by my hand, as thou hast said,
Gideyon ya cewa Allah, “In za ka ceci Isra’ila ta hannuna yadda ka yi alkawari,
37 behold, I put a fleece of wool on the threshing-floor; if dew shall be on the fleece only, and it be dry upon all the ground, then shall I know that thou wilt save Israel by my hand, as thou hast said.
to, zan shimfiɗa ulu a masussuka, inda safe akwai raɓa a kan ulun kaɗai, ƙasa kuwa a bushe, to, zan san cewa za ka ceci Isra’ila ta hannuna, yadda ka ce.”
38 And it was so. And when he rose up early on the morrow, he pressed the fleece together, and wrung dew out of the fleece, a bowl-full of water.
Abin da faru ke nan. Gideyon ya tashi da sassafe kashegari, ya matse ulun ya kakkaɓe raɓar, ruwan ya cika ƙwarya.
39 And Gideon said to God, Let not thine anger be hot against me, and I will speak but this once! Let me prove, I pray thee, but this once with the fleece; let it, I pray thee, be dry upon the fleece only, and upon all the ground let there be dew.
Sa’an nan Gideyon ya ce wa Allah, “Kada ka yi fushi da ni. Bari in ƙara yin wani gwaji kuma da ulun. A wannan lokaci ka sa ulun yă bushe, ƙasar kuma ta rufu da raɓa.”
40 And God did so that night, and it was dry upon the fleece only, but on all the ground there was dew.
A wannan dare Allah ya yi haka. Ulun ne kaɗai yake a bushe, amma dukan ƙasar ta jiƙe da raɓa.
