Judges 17
1 And there was a man of mount Ephraim, whose name was Micah.
To, wani mutum mai suna Mika daga ƙasar tudu ta Efraim
2 And he said unto his mother, The eleven hundred shekels of silver that were taken from thee, about which thou cursedst, and spakest of also in mine ears, behold, the silver is with me; I took it. And his mother said, Blessed be thou of Yhwh, my son.
ya ce wa mahaifiyarsa, “Shekel dubu ɗaya da ɗari ɗaya na azurfa da aka ɗauka daga gare ki wanda kuma ji kin furta la’ana a kai, azurfan yana wurina; ni ne na ɗauka.” Sa’an nan mahaifiyarsa ta ce, “Ubangiji yă albarkace ka ɗana!”
3 And when he had restored the eleven hundred shekels of silver to his mother, his mother said, I had wholly dedicated the silver unto Yhwh from my hand for my son, to make a graven image and a molten image: now therefore I will restore it unto thee.
Sa’ad da ya mayar da azurfa dubu ɗaya da ɗari ɗaya na shekel wa mahaifiyarsa, sai ta ce, “Na ba da azurfata ga Ubangiji don ɗana yă sassaƙa sura yă kuma yi zubin gunki. Zan mayar maka.”
4 Yet he restored the money unto his mother; and his mother took two hundred shekels of silver, and gave them to the founder, who made thereof a graven image and a molten image: and they were in the house of Micah.
Saboda haka ya mayar da azurfan wa mahaifiyarsa, ita kuwa ta ɗauki azurfa ɗari biyu na shekel ta ba wa maƙeri, wanda ya mai da su sura da kuma gunki. Aka kuwa sa su a gidan Mika.
5 And the man Micah had an house of gods, and made an ephod, and teraphim, and consecrated one of his sons, who became his priest.
To, wannan mutum Mika yana da ɗakin gumaka, ya yi efod da waɗansu gumaka, ya kuma naɗa ɗaya daga cikin’ya’yansa firist nasa.
6 In those days there was no king in Israel, but every man did that which was right in his own eyes.
A kwanakin Isra’ila ba ta da sarki; kowa yana yin abin da ya ga dama.
7 And there was a young man out of Beth–lehem–judah of the family of Judah, who was a Levite, and he sojourned there.
Wani saurayi Balawe daga Betlehem a Yahuda, wanda yake zama cikin zuriyar Yahuda,
8 And the man departed out of the city from Beth–lehem–judah to sojourn where he could find a place: and he came to mount Ephraim to the house of Micah, as he journeyed.
ya bar garin ya tafi neman inda zai zauna. A hanyarsa ya zo gidan Mika a ƙasar tudu ta Efraim.
9 And Micah said unto him, Whence comest thou? And he said unto him, I am a Levite of Beth–lehem–judah, and I go to sojourn where I may find a place.
Mika ya ce masa, “Daga ina kake?” Ya ce, “Ni Balawe ne daga Betlehem a Yahuda, ina kuwa neman wurin zauna ne.”
10 And Micah said unto him, Dwell with me, and be unto me a father and a priest, and I will give thee ten shekels of silver by the year, and a suit of apparel, and thy victuals. So the Levite went in.
Sa’an nan Mika ya ce masa, “Ka zauna tare da ni ka zama mini mahaifi da firist, zan kuwa ba ka azurfa goma na shekel a shekara, tufafinka da kuma abincinka.” Sai Balawen ya tafi.
11 And the Levite was content to dwell with the man; and the young man was unto him as one of his sons.
Saboda haka Balawen ya yarda ya zauna tare da shi, ɗan saurayin kuwa ya zama kamar ɗaya daga cikin’ya’yansa.
12 And Micah consecrated the Levite; and the young man became his priest, and was in the house of Micah.
Sa’an nan Mika ya naɗa Balawen, saurayin kuwa ya zama masa firist ya kuma zauna a gidansa.
13 Then said Micah, Now know I that Yhwh will do me good, seeing I have a Levite to my priest.
Mika ya ce, “Yanzu na san cewa Ubangiji zai yi mini alheri, da yake Balawen nan ya zama firist nawa.”
