< 2 Samuel 2 >
1 And it came to pass after this, that David enquired of the LORD, saying, Shall I go up into any of the cities of Judah? And the LORD said unto him, Go up. And David said, Where shall I go up? And he said, Unto Hebron.
Bayan’yan kwanaki, sai Dawuda ya nemi nufin Ubangiji ya ce, “In haura zuwa ɗaya daga cikin biranen Yahuda?” Ubangiji ya ce, “Haura.” Dawuda ya ce, “Wanne zan tafi?” Ubangiji ya ce, “Je Hebron.”
2 So David went up thither, and his two wives also, Ahinoam the Jezreelitess, and Abigail Nabal's wife the Carmelite.
Saboda haka sai Dawuda ya tafi can tare da matansa biyu, Ahinowam daga Yezireyel da Abigiyel gwauruwar Nabal mutumin Karmel.
3 And his men that were with him did David bring up, every man with his household: and they dwelt in the cities of Hebron.
Dawuda kuma ya tafi tare da dukan mutanen da suke tare da shi, kowa da iyalinsa, suka zauna a Hebron da garuruwansa.
4 And the men of Judah came, and there they anointed David king over the house of Judah. And they told David, saying, That the men of Jabeshgilead were they that buried Saul.
Sa’an nan mutanen Yahuda suka zo Hebron, a can kuwa suka naɗa Dawuda sarkin Yahuda. Sa’ad da aka gaya wa Dawuda cewa mutanen Yabesh Gileyad ne suka binne Shawulu,
5 And David sent messengers unto the men of Jabeshgilead, and said unto them, Blessed be all of you of the LORD, that all of you have showed this kindness unto your lord, even unto Saul, and have buried him.
sai ya aiki manzanni zuwa Yabesh Gileyad a ce musu, “Ubangiji yă albarkace ku saboda alherin da kuka nuna wa Shawulu ta wurin binne shi.
6 And now the LORD show kindness and truth unto you: and I also will requite you this kindness, because all of you have done this thing.
Bari Ubangiji yă nuna muku ƙaunarsa da amincinsa, ni kuma zan nuna muku irin wannan alherin saboda kun yi haka.
7 Therefore now let your hands be strengthened, and be all of you valiant: for your master Saul is dead, and also the house of Judah have anointed me king over them.
Yanzu fa, sai ku ƙarfafa, ku yi jaruntaka, gama Shawulu sarkinku ya mutu, gidan Yahuda kuwa sun naɗa ni sarki a kansu.”
8 But Abner the son of Ner, captain of Saul's host, took Ishbosheth the son of Saul, and brought him over to Mahanaim;
Ana cikin haka, Abner ɗan Ner, komandan sojojin Shawulu, ya ɗauki Ish-Boshet ɗan Shawulu ya kawo shi Mahanayim.
9 And made him king over Gilead, and over the Ashurites, and over Jezreel, and over Ephraim, and over Benjamin, and over all Israel.
Ya naɗa shi sarkin Gileyad, da na Ashuri, da na Yezireyel, da a kan Efraim, da Benyamin, da kuma na dukan Isra’ila.
10 Ishbosheth Saul's son was forty years old when he began to reign over Israel, and reigned two years. But the house of Judah followed David.
Ish-Boshet ɗan Shawulu yana da shekaru arba’in sa’ad da ya zama sarkin Isra’ila, ya kuma yi sarauta shekara biyu. Amma fa, gidan Yahuda, suka bi Dawuda.
11 And the time that David was king in Hebron over the house of Judah was seven years and six months.
Tsawon lokacin da Dawuda ya yi mulki a Hebron a kan gidan Yahuda, shekara bakwai ne da wata shida.
12 And Abner the son of Ner, and the servants of Ishbosheth the son of Saul, went out from Mahanaim to Gibeon.
Abner ɗan Ner, tare da mutanen Ish-Boshet ɗan Shawulu, suka bar Mahanayim suka tafi Gibeyon.
13 And Joab the son of Zeruiah, and the servants of David, went out, and met together by the pool of Gibeon: and they sat down, the one on the one side of the pool, and the other on the other side of the pool.
Yowab wanda ake ce mamarsa Zeruhiya tare da waɗansu mutanen Dawuda suka fito suka haɗu da su tafkin Gibeyon, Suka zauna, waɗannan a wannan gefe, waɗancan a wancan gefe.
14 And Abner said to Joab, Let the young men now arise, and play before us. And Joab said, Let them arise.
Sa’an nan Abner ya ce wa Yowab, “Bari mu bar waɗansu samari su tashi su yi faɗa hannu da hannu a gabanmu.” Yowab ya ce, “To, su tashi.”
15 Then there arose and went over by number twelve of Benjamin, which pertained to Ishbosheth the son of Saul, and twelve of the servants of David.
Saboda haka samarin suka tashi aka ƙidaya su, mutum sha biyu wajen Benyamin da Ish-Boshet ɗan Shawulu, sha biyu kuma wajen Dawuda.
16 And they caught every one his fellow by the head, and thrust his sword in his fellow's side; so they fell down together: wherefore that place was called Helkathhazzurim, which is in Gibeon.
Sa’an nan kowannensu ya kama abokin gābansa a kā ya soki da wuƙa a jiki, sai duka suka fāɗi a ƙasa. Saboda haka ne ake kiran wannan wuri Helkat Hazzurim a Gibeyon.
17 And there was a very sore battle that day; and Abner was beaten, and the men of Israel, before the servants of David.
Faɗan ya yi zafi a ranar ƙwarai, mutanen Dawuda suka ci mutanen Abner da na Isra’ila.
18 And there were three sons of Zeruiah there, Joab, and Abishai, and Asahel: and Asahel was as light of foot as a wild roe.
’Ya’yan Zeruhiya, maza uku sun kasance a can. Su ne, Yowab, Abishai da Asahel. To, Asahel mai gudu ne kamar barewa.
19 And Asahel pursued after Abner; and in going he turned not to the right hand nor to the left from following Abner.
Ya fafari Abner, bai juya dama ko hagu ba, yayinda yake fafararsa.
20 Then Abner looked behind him, and said, Are you Asahel? And he answered, I am.
Abner ya waiga, sai ya ce, “Kai ne, Asahel?” Ya ce, “Ni ne.”
21 And Abner said to him, Turn you aside to your right hand or to your left, and lay you hold on one of the young men, and take you his armour. But Asahel would not turn aside from following of him.
Sai Abner ya ce masa, “Yi dama ko hagu ka runtumi ɗaya daga cikin samarin, ka ƙwace makamansa.” Amma Asahel bai bar fafararsa ba.
22 And Abner said again to Asahel, Turn you aside from following me: wherefore should I strike you to the ground? how then should I hold up my face to Joab your brother?
Abner ya sāke gargaɗe shi ya ce, “Ka bar fafarata! Yaya zan kashe ka? Yaya zan yin ido biyu da ɗan’uwanka Yowab?”
23 Nevertheless he refused to turn aside: wherefore Abner with the hinder end of the spear stroke him under the fifth rib, that the spear came out behind him; and he fell down there, and died in the same place: and it came to pass, that as many as came to the place where Asahel fell down and died stood still.
Amma Asahel ya ƙi yă bar fafararsa; saboda haka Abner ya soki Asahel da māshinsa a ciki; har māshin ya fita ta bayansa. Nan take ya fāɗi, ya mutu. Kowa da ya zo wurin da Asahel ya fāɗi, ya mutu, sai yă tsaya.
24 Joab also and Abishai pursued after Abner: and the sun went down when they were come to the hill of Ammah, that lies before Giah by the way of the wilderness of Gibeon.
Amma Yowab da Abishai suka fafari Abner, kuma da rana tana fāɗuwa sai suka iso tudun Amma, kusa da Giya, a hanyar zuwa jejin Gibeyon.
25 And the children of Benjamin gathered themselves together after Abner, and became one troop, and stood on the top of an hill.
Sa’an nan mutanen Benyamin suka haɗa kansu suka koyi bayan Abner. Suka zama ƙungiya guda, suka tsaya daram a kan tudu.
26 Then Abner called to Joab, and said, Shall the sword devour for ever? know you not that it will be bitterness in the latter end? how long shall it be then, before you bid the people return from following their brethren?
Sai Abner ya kira Yowab ya ce, har abada ne māshi zai yi ta hallakarwa? Ba ka sani cewa ƙarshen zai zama da ɗaci ba. Sai yaushe za ka umarci mutanenka su daina fafaran’yan’uwansu?
27 And Joab said, As God lives, unless you had spoken, surely then in the morning the people had gone up every one from following his brother.
Yowab ya ce, “Muddin Allah yana a raye, da ba a ce ka yi magana ba, da mutanen za su ci gaba da fafaran’yan’uwansu har gari yă waye.”
28 So Joab blew a trumpet, and all the people stood still, and pursued after Israel no more, neither fought they any more.
Sai Yowab ya busa ƙaho, dukan mutane kuwa suka tsaya; suka daina fafaran Isra’ila. Nan take faɗan ya tsaya.
29 And Abner and his men walked all that night through the plain, and passed over Jordan, and went through all Bithron, and they came to Mahanaim.
Abner da mutanensa suka ratsa kwarin Urdun dukan dare. Sa’an nan suka haye kogin, suka kuwa ci gaba dukan safe har suka zo Mahanayim.
30 And Joab returned from following Abner: and when he had gathered all the people together, there lacked of David's servants nineteen men and Asahel.
Da Yowab ya dawo daga fafaran Abner, sai ya tattara dukan mutanensa. Ban da Asahel, sai ya gane an rasa mutum goma sha tara na Dawuda.
31 But the servants of David had smitten of Benjamin, and of Abner's men, so that three hundred and threescore men died.
Amma mutanen Dawuda sun kashe mutum ɗari uku da sittin daga kabilar Benyamin da suke tare da Abner.
32 And they took up Asahel, and buried him in the tomb of his father, which was in Bethlehem. And Joab and his men went all night, and they came to Hebron at break of day.
Suka ɗauki gawar Asahel suka binne a kabarin mahaifinsa a Betlehem. Sa’an nan Yowab da mutanensa suka bi dare har suka iso Hebron da safe.
