< Kings III 20 >
1 And Nabuthai the Jezraelite had a vineyard, near the threshing floor of Achaab king of Samaria.
Ben-Hadad sarkin Aram kuwa ya tattara mayaƙansa gaba ɗaya. Sarakuna talatin da biyu suka tafi tare da shi haɗe da dawakansu da kekunan yaƙinsu. Ya haura ya yi wa Samariya kwanto, ya kuma yaƙe ta.
2 And Achaab spoke to Nabuthai, saying, Give me your vineyard, and I will have it for a garden of herbs, for it [is] near my house: and I will give you another vineyard better than it; or if it please you, I will give you money, the price of this your vineyard, and I will have it for a garden of herbs.
Ya aika da’yan aika zuwa cikin birnin wurin Ahab sarkin Isra’ila yana cewa, “Ga abin da Ben-Hadad ya ce,
3 And Nabuthai said to Achaab, My God forbid me that I should give you the inheritance of my fathers.
‘Azurfarka da zinariyarka nawa ne. Mafi kyau cikin matanka da’ya’yanka nawa ne.’”
4 And the spirit of Achaab was troubled, and he lay down upon his bed, and covered his face, and ate no bread.
Sarkin Isra’ila ya amsa, ya ce, “Kamar dai yadda ka faɗa, ranka yă daɗe, sarki. Ni da dukan abin da nake da shi, naka ne.”
5 And Jezabel his wife went in to him, and spoke to him, [saying], Why [is] your spirit troubled, and [why] do you eat no bread?
Sai’yan aikan suka sāke dawo suka ce, “Ga abin da Ben-Hadad ya ce, ‘Na aika ka ba da azurfarka da zinariyarka, matanka da kuma’ya’yanka.
6 And he said to her, Because I spoke to Nabuthai the Jezraelite, saying, Give me your vineyard for money; or if you will, I will give you another vineyard for it: and he said, I will not give you the inheritance of my fathers.
Amma war haka gobe zan aika shugabannina su bincika fadanka da kuma gidajen shugabanninka. Za su kwashe dukan abubuwan da kake ganin darajarsu su tafi.’”
7 And Jezabel his wife said to him, Do you now thus act the king over Israel? arise, and eat bread, and be your own [master], and I will give you the vineyard of Nabuthai the Jezraelite.
Sarkin Isra’ila ya tattara dukan dattawan ƙasar, ya ce musu, “Ku duba fa, wannan mutum yana neman tsokana! Sa’ad da ya aika in ba shi matana da’ya’yana, azurfana da zinariyana, ban hana masa ba.”
8 And she wrote a letter in the name of Achaab, and sealed it with his seal, and sent the letter to the elders, and to the freemen who lived with Nabuthai.
Dattawa da dukan mutane suka amsa, suka ce, “Kada ka saurare shi ko ka yarda da abin da yake bukata.”
9 And it was written in the letters, saying, Keep a fast, and set Naboth in a chief place among the people.
Saboda haka ya ba wa’yan aikan Ben-Hadad amsa, ya ce, “Ku faɗa wa ranka yă daɗe, sarki, ‘Bawanka zai yi dukan abin da ka bukaci da farko, amma wannan na ƙarshe ba zan iya yin ba.’” Suka tafi suka kai amsar wa Ben-Hadad.
10 And set two men, sons of transgressors, before him, and let them testify against him, saying, He blessed God and the king: and let them lead him forth, and stone him, and let them die.
Sai Ben-Hadad ya aika da wani saƙo wa Ahab, ya ce, “Bari alloli su yi da ni yadda suke so, su kuma yi haka da tsanani, in isashen ƙura ta rage a Samariya da za a iya ba wa mutanena a tafin hannu.”
11 And the men of his city, the elders, and the nobles who lived in his city, did as Jezabel sent to them, and as it had been written in the letters which she sent to them.
Sarki Isra’ila ya amsa, ya ce, “Ku faɗa masa, ‘Wanda ya sa kayan yaƙinsa bai kamata yă yi fariya ba sai ya tuɓe su.’”
12 And they proclaimed a fast, and set Nebuthai in a chief place among the people.
Ben-Hadad ya ji wannan saƙo yayinda shi da sarakunan suke sha a cikin tentunansu, sai ya umarce mutanensa, ya ce, “Ku shirya don yaƙi.” Saboda haka suka shirya don su yaƙi birnin.
13 And two men, sons of transgressors, came in, and sat opposite him, and bore witness against him, saying, You have blessed God and the king. And they led him forth out of the city, and stoned him with stones, and he died.
Ana cikin haka sai wani annabi ya zo wurin Ahab sarkin Isra’ila ya sanar masa cewa, “Ga abin da Ubangiji ya ce, ‘Ka ga wannan ɗumbun mayaƙa? Zan ba da su cikin hannunka a yau, sa’an nan za ka san cewa ni ne Ubangiji.’”
14 And they sent to Jezabel, saying, Nabuthai is stoned, and is dead.
Ahab ya ce, “Amma wa zai yi haka?” Annabin ya amsa, “Ga abin da Ubangiji ya ce, ‘Sojoji matasa na shugabannin yankuna za su yi haka.’” Ya tambaya, “Wa kuma zai fara yaƙin?” Annabin ya amsa, “Kai za ka fara.”
15 And it came to pass, when Jezabel heard [it], that she said to Achaab, Arise, take possession of the vineyard of Nabuthai the Jezraelite, who would not sell it to you: for Nebuthai is not alive, for he is dead.
Saboda haka Ahab ya kira sojoji matasa na shugabannin yankuna, mutum 232. Sa’an nan ya tattara sauran Isra’ilawa su 7,000 gaba ɗaya.
16 And it came to pass, when Achaab heard that Nabuthai the Jezraelite was dead, that he tore his garments, and put on sackcloth. And it came to pass afterward, that Achaab arose and went down to the vineyard of Nabuthai the Jezraelite, to take possession of it.
Suka fita da tsakar rana yayinda Ben-Hadad tare da sarakuna 32 masu goyon bayansa suke cikin tentunansu suna sha, suna buguwa.
17 And the Lord spoke to Eliu the Thesbite, saying,
Sojojin nan matasa na shugabannin yankuna suka fara fita. Ben-Hadad kuwa ya riga ya aiki’yan leƙen asiri, waɗanda suka ce, “Mutane suna zuwa daga Samariya.”
18 Arise, and go down to meet Achaab king of Israel, who is in Samaria, for he [is] in the vineyard of Nabuthai, for he has gone down there to take possession of it.
Ya ce, “In sun fito don salama, ku kamo su da rai; in sun fito yaƙi ne, ku kamo su da rai.”
19 And you shall speak to him, saying, Thus says the Lord, Forasmuch as you have slain and taken possession, therefore thus says the Lord, In every place where the swine and the dogs have licked the blood of Nabuthai, there shall the dogs lick your blood; and the harlots shall wash themselves in your blood.
Sojojin nan matasa na shugabannin yankuna suka taka suka fita daga birnin da mayaƙa a bayansu.
20 And Achaab said to Eliu, Hast you found me, mine enemy? and he said, I have found [you]: because you have wickedly sold yourself to work evil in the sight of the Lord, to provoke him to anger;
Kowannensu kuwa ya buge abokin gābansa. Ganin wannan, sai Arameyawa suka gudu, Isra’ilawa suna bi. Amma Ben-Hadad na Aram ya tsere a kan dokinsa tare da waɗansu mahayan dawakansa.
21 behold, I bring evil upon you: and I will kindle a fire after you, and I will utterly destroy every male of Achaab, and him that is shut up and him that is left in Israel.
Sarki Isra’ila ya bi, ya kuma sha ƙarfin dawakan da keken yaƙin, ya kashe Arameyawa da yawa.
22 And I will make your house as the house of Jeroboam the son of Nabat, and as the house of Baasa son of Achia, because of the provocations wherewith you have provoked [me], and caused Israel to sin.
Daga baya, annabin ya zo wurin sarkin Isra’ila ya ce, “Ka ƙarfafa matsayinka ka kuma ga abin da za a yi, gama a bazara mai zuwa sarkin Aram zai sāke kawo yaƙi.”
23 And the Lord spoke of Jezabel, saying, The dogs shall devour her within the fortification of Jezrael.
Ana cikin haka, shugabannin sarkin Aram suka ba shi shawara, “Allolinsu, allolin tuddai ne. Shi ya sa suka fi mu ƙarfi. Amma in mun yaƙe su a fili, tabbatacce za mu fi su ƙarfi.
24 Him that is dead of Achaab in the city shall the dogs eat, and him that is dead of him in the field shall the birds of the sky eat.
Ka yi wannan. Ka cire dukan sarakuna daga matsayinsu ka sa waɗansu shugabanni a maimakonsu.
25 But Achaab [did] wickedly, in that he sold himself to do that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, as his wife Jezabel led him astray.
Dole kuma ka tā da waɗansu mayaƙa kamar waɗanda ka rasa, doki don doki, keken yaƙi kuma don keken yaƙi, saboda mu iya yaƙe Isra’ila a fili. Ta haka tabbatacce za mu fi ƙarfinsu.” Sai ya yarda da su, ya kuma yi haka.
26 And he did very abominably in following after the abominations, according to all that the Amorite did, whom the Lord utterly destroyed from before the children of Israel.
Bazara na biye Ben-Hadad ya tattara Arameyawa, ya haura zuwa Afek don yă yaƙi Isra’ila.
27 And because of the word, Achaab was pierced with sorrow before the Lord, and he both went weeping, and tore his garment, and girded sackcloth upon his body, and fasted; he put on sackcloth also in the day that he struck Nabuthai the Jezraelite, and went his way.
Sa’ad da aka tattara Isra’ilawa, aka kuma ba su guzuri, sai suka taka suka fita don su sadu da Arameyawa. Isra’ilawa suka kafa sansani ɗaura da su kamar ƙananan garkuna biyu na awaki, yayinda Arameyawa suka rufe dukan jejin.
28 And the word of the Lord came by the hand of his servant Eliu concerning Achaab, and the Lord said,
Sai mutumin Allah ya zo ya ce wa sarkin Isra’ila, “Ga abin da Ubangiji ya ce, ‘Domin Arameyawa suna tsammani Ubangiji allahn tuddai ne, ba allahn kwari ba, zan ba da wannan ɗumbun mayaƙa a hannuwanka, za ka kuwa sani ni ne Ubangiji.’”
29 Hast you seen how Achaab has been pricked [to the heart] before me? I will not bring on the evil in his days, but in his son's days will I bring on the evil.
Kwana bakwai suka yi sansani ɗaura da juna, a rana ta bakwai sai yaƙi ya haɗu. Isra’ilawa suka kashe sojojin kafa na Arameyawa dubu ɗari a rana ɗaya.
30 And the son of Ader gathered all his forces, and went up and besieged Samaria, [he] and thirty-two kings with him, and all [his] horse and chariots: and they went up and besieged Samaria, and fought against it.
Sauransu suka tsere zuwa birnin Afek, inda katangar ya fāɗa a kan mutum dubu ashirin da bakwai. Sai Ben-Hadad ya gudu zuwa birni ya ɓuya a ciki cikin ɗaki.
31 And he sent into the city to Achaab king of Israel, and said to him, Thus says the son of Ader,
Fadawansa suka je suka ce masa, “Mun ji an ce sarakunan Isra’ila masu jinƙai ne, bari mu sa tufafin makoki, mu ɗaura igiyoyi a wuyanmu, sa’an nan mu tafi wurin sarkin Isra’ila, wataƙila zai bar ka da rai.”
32 Your silver and your gold are mine, and your wives and your children are mine.
Saye da tufafin makoki kewaye a gindinsu, da kuma igiyoyi kewaye da kawunansu, suka tafi wurin sarkin Isra’ila, suka ce, “Bawanka Ben-Hadad ya ce, ‘Ina roƙonka bari in rayu.’” Sarki ya amsa, “Har yanzu yana da rai? Shi ɗan’uwana ne.”
33 And the king of Israel answered and said, As you have said, my lord, O king, I am your, and all mine [also].
Da ma abin da fadawan suke so su ji ke nan, sai suka yi sauri, suka karɓi maganar a bakinsa, suka ce, “I, ɗan’uwanka, Ben-hadad!” Sarki ya ce, “Ku je ku kawo shi.” Da Ben-Hadad ya fita, sai Ahab ya sa aka kawo shi cikin keken yaƙinsa.
34 And the messengers came again, and said, Thus says the son of Ader, I sent to you, saying, You shall give me your silver and your gold, and your wives and your children.
Ben-Hadad ya ce, “Zan mayar da biranen mahaifinka da na ƙwace daga mahaifinka. Za ka iya sa wurin kasuwarka a cikin Damaskus, kamar yadda mahaifinka ya yi a Samariya.” Ahab ya ce, “Bisa wannan yarjejjeniya zan sake ka.” Saboda haka ya yi yarjejjeniya da shi, sai ya bar shi ya tafi.
35 For at this time to-morrow I will send my servants to you, and they shall search your house, and the houses of your servants, and it shall be that all the desirable objects of their eyes on which they shall lay their hands, they shall even take [them].
Ta wurin maganar Ubangiji, ɗaya daga cikin’ya’ya maza na annabawa ya ce wa abokinsa, “Ka buge ni da makaminka,” amma mutumin ya ƙi.
36 And the king of Israel called all the elders of the land, and said, Take notice now and consider, that this man seeks mischief: for he has sent to me concerning my wives, and concerning my sons, an concerning my daughters: I have not kept back from him my silver and my gold.
Sai annabin ya ce, “Domin ba ka yi biyayya da Ubangiji ba, da zarar ka bar ni zaki zai kashe ka.” Daga baya mutumin ya tafi, zaki ya same shi, ya kuma kashe shi.
37 And the elders and all the people said to him, Listen not, and consent not.
Annabin ya sami wani mutum ya ce, “Ka buge ni, ina roƙonka.” Sai mutumin ya buge shi, ya ji masa ciwo.
38 And he said to the messengers of the son of Ader, Say to your master, All things that you have sent to your servant about at first I will do; but this thing I shall not be able to do. And the men departed, and carried back the answer to him.
Sa’an nan annabin ya tafi ya tsaya a bakin hanya yana jiran sarki. Ya ɓad da kamanni da ƙyalle a kansa. Ƙyallen ya sauka zuwa bisa idanunsa.
39 And the son of Ader sent to him, saying, So do God to me, and more also, if the dust of Samaria shall suffice for foxes to all the people, even my infantry.
Yayinda sarki yake wucewa, sai annabin ya yi kira da ƙarfi gare shi ya ce “Ni bawanka na tafi yaƙi, sai ga wani ya kawo mini wani mutum, ya ce, ‘Ka riƙe wannan mutum, kada ka bar shi yă kuɓuta ko da ƙaƙa, idan ka bari ya kuɓuta, a bakin ranka, ko kuwa ka biya talanti ɗaya na azurfa.’
40 And the king of Israel answered and said, Let it be sufficient; let not the humpbacked boast as he that is upright.
Yayinda bawanka yana fama, yana kai da kawowa, sai mutumin ya ɓace.” Sai sarkin Isra’ila ya ce, “Hukuncinka ke nan, ka furta shi da kanka.”
41 And it came to pass when he returned him this answer, he and all the kings with him were drinking in tents: and he said to his servants, Form a trench. And they made a trench against the city.
Sai annabin ya cire ƙyallen da sauri daga kansa, da ya rufe idanunsa, sarkin Isra’ila kuwa ya gane shi a matsayi ɗaya daga cikin annabawa.
42 And, behold, a prophet came to Achaab king of Israel, and said, Thus says the Lord, Hast you seen this great multitude? behold, I give it this day into your hands; and you shall know that I [am] the Lord.
Sai ya ce wa sarki, “Ga abin da Ubangiji ya ce, ‘Ka saki mutumin da na ƙudura yă mutu. Saboda haka ranka zai zama a maimakon ransa, mutanenka a maimakon mutanensa.’”
43 And Achaab said, Whereby? And he said, Thus says the Lord, by the young men of the heads of the districts. And Achaab said, Who shall begin the battle? and he said, You.
Cike da fushi, sarkin Isra’ila ya tafi fadarsa a Samariya.
