< 2 Kings 3 >

1 Now Jehoram the son of Ahab began to reign over Israel in Samaria in the eighteenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, and 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 that which was evil in the sight of the LORD; but not like his father, and like his mother; for he put away the pillar of Baal that 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 cleaved unto the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, wherewith he made Israel to sin; he departed not therefrom.
Duk da haka ya manne wa zunuban Yerobowam ɗan Nebat, wanda ya sa Isra’ila ta aikata, bai rabu da su ba.
4 Now Mesha king of Moab was a sheep-master; and he rendered unto the king of Israel the wool of a hundred thousand lambs, and of a hundred thousand rams.
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 But it came to pass, when Ahab was dead, that the king of Moab rebelled against the king of Israel.
Amma bayan mutuwar Ahab, sai sarkin Mowab ya yi wa sarkin Isra’ila tawaye.
6 And king Jehoram went out of Samaria at that time, and mustered all Israel.
To, a lokacin, Sarki Yoram ya tashi daga Samariya, ya tattara sojoji daga dukan Isra’ila.
7 And he went and sent to Jehoshaphat the king of Judah, saying: 'The king of Moab hath rebelled against me; wilt thou go with me against Moab to battle?' And he said: 'I will go up; I am as thou art, my people as thy people, my horses as 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?' And he answered: 'The way of the wilderness 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 went, and the king of Judah, and the king of Edom; and they made a circuit of seven days' journey; and there was no water for the host, nor 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! for the LORD hath called these three kings together to deliver them into the hand 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 But Jehoshaphat said: 'Is there not here a prophet of the LORD, that we may inquire of the LORD by him?' And one of the king of Israel's servants answered and said: 'Elisha the son of Shaphat is here, who poured water on the hands of Elijah.'
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 Jehoshaphat said: 'The word of the LORD is with him.' So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat 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 Elisha said unto the king of Israel: 'What have I to do with thee? get thee to the prophets of thy father, and to the prophets of thy mother.' And the king of Israel said unto him: 'Nay; for the LORD hath called these three kings together to deliver them into the hand 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 Elisha said: 'As the LORD of hosts liveth, before whom I stand, surely, were it not that I regard the presence of Jehoshaphat the king of Judah, I would not look toward thee, nor see 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 a minstrel.' And it came to pass, when the minstrel played, that the hand of the LORD came upon him.
Amma yanzu, a kawo mini makaɗin garaya.” Yayinda makaɗin garayan yake kiɗa, ikon Ubangiji ya sauko a kan Elisha
16 And he said: 'Thus saith the LORD: Make this valley full of trenches.
ya kuma ce, “Ga abin da Ubangiji ya ce, zan cika kwarin nan da tafkunan ruwa.
17 For thus saith the LORD: Ye shall not see wind, neither shall ye see rain, yet that valley shall be filled with water; and ye shall drink, both ye and your cattle 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 but a light thing in the sight of the LORD; He will also deliver the Moabites into your hand.
Wannan abu mai sauƙi ne a wurin Ubangiji; zai kuma ba da Mowab a gare ku.
19 And ye shall smite every fortified city, and every choice city, and shall fell every good tree, and stop all fountains of water, and mar every good piece of land 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, about the time of making the offering, that, behold, there came water 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 Now when all the Moabites heard that the kings were come up to fight against them, they gathered themselves together, all that were able to put on armour, and upward, and stood on the border.
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 up early in the morning, and the sun shone upon the water, and the Moabites saw the water some way off as red as 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: 'This is blood: the kings have surely fought together, and they have smitten each man his fellow; now therefore, Moab, to the spoil.'
Sai suka ce, “Jini ne! Ba shakka sarakunan nan sun yaƙe juna, suka karkashe juna. Ya Mowabawa, mu tafi mu kwashi ganima!”
24 And when they came to the camp of Israel, the Israelites rose up and smote the Moabites, so that they fled before them. And they smote the land, even Moab, mightily.
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 beat down the cities; and on every good piece of land they cast every man his stone, and filled it; and they stopped all the fountains of water, and felled all the good trees; until there was left only Kir-hareseth with the stones of the wall thereof; so the slingers encompassed it, and smote it.
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 that the battle was too sore for him, he took with him seven hundred men that drew sword, to break through unto 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 came great wrath upon Israel; and they departed from him, and returned to their own land.
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.
