< 2 Kings 3 >

1 And Joram the son of Achab reigned over Israel in Samaria in the eighteenth year of Josaphat king of Juda. And he reigned twelve years.
Yoram, ɗan Ahab ya zama sarki Isra’ila, a Samariya, a shekara ta goma sha takwas ta mulkin Yehoshafat, sarkin Yahuda, ya kuma yi mulki shekara goma sha biyu.
2 And he did evil before the Lord, but not like his father and his mother: for he took away the statues of Baal, which his father had made.
Yoram ya aikata mugunta a gaban Ubangiji, amma ba kamar yadda mahaifinsa da mahaifiyarsa suka yi ba. Ya kawar da dutsen tsarkin Ba’al wanda mahaifinsa ya yi.
3 Nevertheless he stuck to the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who made Israel to sin, nor did he depart from them.
Duk da haka ya manne wa zunuban Yerobowam ɗan Nebat, wanda ya sa Isra’ila ta aikata, bai rabu da su ba.
4 Now Mesa, king of Moab, nourished many sheep, and he paid to the king of Israel a hundred thousand lambs, and a hundred thousand rams with their fleeces.
Mesha, sarkin Mowab yana kiwon tumaki, ya kuma zama tilas yă biya haraji ga sarkin Isra’ila. Saboda haka yakan ba da’yan tumaki dubu ɗari, da kuma gashin raguna dubu ɗari.
5 And when Achab was dead, he broke the league which he had made with the king of Israel.
Amma bayan mutuwar Ahab, sai sarkin Mowab ya yi wa sarkin Isra’ila tawaye.
6 And king Joram went out that day from Samaria, and mustered all Israel.
To, a lokacin, Sarki Yoram ya tashi daga Samariya, ya tattara sojoji daga dukan Isra’ila.
7 And he sent to Josaphat king of Juda, saying: The king of Moab is revolted from me, come with me against him to battle. And he answered: I will come up: he that is mine, is thine: my people, thy people: and my horses, thy horses.
Ya kuma aika da wannan saƙo ga Yehoshafat sarkin Yahuda cewa, “Sarkin Mowab ya yi mini tawaye. Za ka tafi tare da ni mu yaƙi Mowab?” Sai sarkin Yahuda ya ce, “I, ina shirye mu tafi. Ai, sojojina sojojinka ne, dawakaina kuma dawakanka ne.”
8 And he said: Which way shall we go up? But he answered: By the desert of Edom.
Ya ƙara da cewa, “Wace hanya za mu bi?” Sai Yoram ya amsa ya ce, “Ta hanyar jejin Edom.”
9 So the king of Israel, and the king of Juda, and the king of Edom went, and they fetched a compass of seven days’ journey, and there was no water for the army, and for the beasts, that followed them.
Saboda haka sarkin Isra’ila ya fita tare da sarkin Yahuda, da kuma sarkin Edom. Da suka yi kwana bakwai suna ta zagawa, sai sojoji da dabbobi suka rasa ruwan sha.
10 And the king of Israel said: Alas, alas, alas, the Lord hath gathered us three kings together, to deliver us into the hands of Moab!
Sai sarkin Isra’ila ya ce, “Mene! Ubangiji ya kira mu sarakunan nan uku don kawai yă ba da mu ga Mowab ne?”
11 And Josaphat said: Is there not here a prophet of the Lord, that we may beseech the Lord by him? And one of the servants of the king of Israel answered: Here is Eliseus the son of Saphat, who poured water on the hands of Elias.
Amma Yehoshafat ya yi tambaya ya ce, “Babu wani annabin Ubangiji a nan da za mu nemi nufin Ubangiji ta wurinsa?” Wani hafsan sarkin Isra’ila ya amsa ya ce, “Ai, akwai Elisha ɗan Shafat, wanda dā ya yi wa Iliya hidima.”
12 And Josaphat said: The word of the Lord is with him. And the king of Israel, and Josaphat king of Juda, and the king of Edom went down to him.
Yehoshafat ya ce, “Maganar Ubangiji tana tare da shi.” Saboda haka sarkin Isra’ila da Yehoshafat da kuma sarkin Edom suka tafi wurin Elisha.
13 And Eliseus said to the king of Israel: What have I to do with thee? go to the prophets of thy father, and thy mother. And the king of Israel said to him: Why hath the Lord gathered together these three kings, to deliver them into the hands of Moab?
Elisha ya ce wa sarkin Isra’ila, “Ina ruwana da kai? Tafi wurin annabawan mahaifinka da annabawa mahaifiyarka.” Sai sarkin Isra’ila ya ce, “A’a, ai Ubangiji ne ya kira mu, mu sarakunan nan uku don yă bashe mu ga Mowab.”
14 And Eliseus said to him: As the Lord of hosts liveth, in whose sight I stand, if I did not reverence the face of Josaphat king of Juda, I would not have hearkened to thee, nor looked on thee.
Sai Elisha ya ce, “Muddin Ubangiji Maɗaukaki yana a raye, wanda nake bauta, da ba don ina ganin girman Yehoshafat Sarkin Yahuda ba, da ko kallonka ba zan yi ba.
15 But now bring me hither a minstrel. And when the minstrel played, the hand of the Lord came upon him, and he said:
Amma yanzu, a kawo mini makaɗin garaya.” Yayinda makaɗin garayan yake kiɗa, ikon Ubangiji ya sauko a kan Elisha
16 Thus saith the Lord: Make the channel of this torrent full of ditches.
ya kuma ce, “Ga abin da Ubangiji ya ce, zan cika kwarin nan da tafkunan ruwa.
17 For thus saith the Lord: You shall not see wind, nor rain: and yet this channel shall be filled with waters, and you shall drink, you and your families, and your beasts.
Gama ga abin da Ubangiji ya ce, ko da yake babu iska, ko ruwan sama, duk da haka kwarin nan zai cika da ruwa, har ku da dabbobinku da kuma sauran dabbobi ku sha.
18 And this is a small thing in the sight of the Lord: moreover he will deliver also Moab into your hands.
Wannan abu mai sauƙi ne a wurin Ubangiji; zai kuma ba da Mowab a gare ku.
19 And you shall destroy every fenced city, and every choice city, and shall cut down every fruitful tree, and shall stop up all the springs of waters, and every goodly field you shall cover with stones.
Za ku ci kowane birni mai katanga, da kowane babban gari. Za ku sare kowane itace mai kyau, ku kuma tattoshe maɓuɓɓugan ruwa. Za ku kuma yi amfani da duwatsu ku lalatar da kowace gona mai kyau.”
20 And it came to pass in the morning, when the sacrifices used to be offered, that behold, water came by the way of Edom, and the country was filled with water.
Kashegari, daidai lokacin hadaya, sai ga ruwa yana gangarowa daga gefen Edom! Ƙasar kuwa ta cika da ruwa.
21 And all the Moabites hearing that the kings were come up to fight against them, gathered together all that were girded with a belt upon them, and stood in the borders.
To, dukan Mowabawa suka ji cewa sarakuna suna tafe don su yaƙe su; saboda haka aka kira kowane namiji, babba da yaro, wanda ya isa ɗaukan makami, aka jera su a bakin iyaka.
22 And they rose early in the morning, and the sun being now up, and shining upon the waters, the Moabites saw the waters over against them red, like blood,
Da suka tashi da sassafe, rana tana haska ruwa. Sai ruwan ya yi ja kamar jini a idanun Mowabawan da suke a ƙetare.
23 And they said: It is the blood of the sword: the kings have fought among themselves, and they have killed one another: go now, Moab, to the spoils.
Sai suka ce, “Jini ne! Ba shakka sarakunan nan sun yaƙe juna, suka karkashe juna. Ya Mowabawa, mu tafi mu kwashi ganima!”
24 And they went into the camp of Israel: but Israel rising up defeated Moab, who fled before them. And they being conquerors, went and smote Moab.
Amma da Mowabawa suka isa sansanin Isra’ila, sai Isra’ilawa suka taso suka auka musu har sai da suka gudu. Isra’ilawa kuwa suka kai musu hari, suka karkashe Mowabawa.
25 And they destroyed the cities: and they filled every goodly field, every man casting his stone: and they stopt up all the springs of waters: and cut down all the trees that bore fruit, so that brick walls only remained: and the city was beset by the slingers, and a great part thereof destroyed.
Suka ragargaza garuruwa, kowane mutum kuwa ya jefa dutse a kowane gona mai kyau har sai da aka rufe gonakin gaba ɗaya. Suka tattoshe duk maɓulɓulan ruwa, suka kuma sare duk itace mai kyau. Kir Hareset ne kaɗai aka bari tare da duwatsunsa yadda suke, amma mutanen da suke da majajjawa suka yi wa birnin zobe, suka kai masa hari shi ma.
26 And when the king of Moab saw this, to wit, that the enemies had prevailed, he took with him seven hundred men that drew the sword, to break in upon the king of Edom: but they could not.
Da sarkin Mowab ya ga yaƙi ya rinjaye shi, sai ya ɗauki mutane masu takobi ɗari bakwai, ya ratsa zuwa wajen sarkin Edom, amma ba su yi nasara ba.
27 Then he took his eldest son that should have reigned in his stead, and offered him for a burnt offering upon the wall: and there was great indignation in Israel, and presently they departed from him, and returned into their own country.
Sa’an nan ya ɗauki ɗansa na fari, wanda zai gāje shi, ya yi hadaya da shi a bisa katangan birnin. Isra’ilawa suka firgita ƙwarai; sai suka janye suka koma ƙasarsu.
