< Kings I 11 >

1 And it came to pass about a month after this, that Naas the Ammanite went up, and encamped against Jabis Galaad: and all the men of Jabis said to Naas the Ammanite, Make a covenant with us, and we will serve you.
Nahash mutumin Ammon ya haura ya kewaye Yabesh Gileyad da yaƙi. Dukan mutanen Yabesh suka ce masa, “Ka ƙulla amana da mu, mu kuwa za mu bauta maka.”
2 Naas the Ammanite said to them, On these terms will I make a covenant with you, that I should put out all your right eyes, and I will lay a reproach upon Israel.
Amma Nahash ya ce, “Zan ƙulla amana da ku kawai a kan sharaɗin cewa zan ƙwaƙulo idon dama na kowannenku, ta haka za a kunyata Isra’ila.”
3 And the men of Jabis say to him, Allow us seven days, and we will send messengers into all the coasts of Israel: if there should be no one to deliver us, we will come out to you.
Dattawan Yabesh suka ce masa, “Ka ba mu kwana bakwai don mu aika manzanni a dukan ƙasar Isra’ila idan ba mu sami wanda zai cece mu ba, za mu ba da kanmu gare ka.”
4 And the messengers came to Gabaa to Saul, and they speak the words into the ears of the people; and all the people lifted up their voice, and wept.
Da manzannin suka zo Gibeya garin Shawulu, suka gaya wa mutane wannan sharaɗin, suka yi kuka mai zafi.
5 And, behold, Saul came after the early morning out of the field: and Saul said, Why does the people week? and they tell him the words of the men of Jabis.
A daidai wannan lokacin kuwa Shawulu yana dawowa daga gona tare da shanunsa na noma, sai ya ce, “Me ya faru, mutane suna kuka haka?” Sai suka faɗa masa abin da mutanen Yabesh suka faɗa musu.
6 And the Spirit of the Lord came upon Saul when he heard these words, and his anger was greatly kindled against them.
Da Shawulu ya ji, sa Ruhun Allah ya sauko a kansa da iko, ya husata ƙwarai.
7 And he took two cows, and cut them in pieces, and sent them into all the coasts of Israel by the hand of messengers, saying, Whoso comes not forth after Saul and after Samuel, so shall they do to his oxen: and a transport from the Lord came upon the people of Israel, and they came out to battle as one man.
Ya ɗauki shanu biyu, ya yayyanka su gunduwa-gunduwa, ya aika da su ko’ina a ƙasar Isra’ila ta wurin manzanni cewa, “Duk wanda bai fita ya bi Shawulu da Sama’ila ba, haka za a yi da shanunsa.” Mutanen suka ji tsoron Ubangiji suka fita gaba ɗaya kamar mutum guda.
8 And he reviews them at Bezec in Bama, every man of Israel six hundred thousand, and the men of Juda seventy thousand.
Mutanen Isra’ila sun kai dubu ɗari uku. Mutanen Yahuda kuma dubu talatin, sa’ad da Shawulu ya tara su a Bezek.
9 And he said to the messengers that came, Thus shall you say to the men of Jabis, To-morrow you shall have deliverance when the sun is hot; and the messengers came to the city, and told the men of Jabis, and they rejoiced.
Suka ce wa’yan aikan da suka zo, “Ku faɗa wa mutanen Yabesh Gileyad, ‘Gobe, kafin rana tă yi zafi, za ku sami ceto.’” Sa’ad da’yan aikan suka tafi, suka ba da saƙon nan ga mutanen Yabesh, sai suka farin ciki.
10 And the men of Jabis said to Naas the Ammanite, To-morrow we will come forth to you, and you shall do to us what seems good in your sight.
Suka ce wa Ammonawa, “Gobe za mu miƙa wuya gare ku, ku kuma yi duk abin da kuka ga dama.”
11 And it came to pass on the morrow, that Saul divided the people into three companies, and they go into the midst of the camp in the morning watch, and they struck the children of Ammon until the day was hot; at it came to pass that those who were left were scattered, and there were not left among them two together.
Gari yana wayewa, sai Shawulu ya raba mutane kashi uku, a sa’a ta ƙarshe na daren sai suka fāɗa wa sansanin Ammonawa, suka kuma karkashe su har lokacin da rana ta yi zafi. Waɗanda suka kuɓuce kuwa suka warwatsu, har babu biyunsu da aka bari tare.
12 And the people said to Samuel, Who has said that Saul shall not reign over us? Give up the men, and we will put them to death.
Sai mutane suka ce wa Sama’ila, “Su wa suka ce, ‘Shawulu zai yi mulkinmu?’ A kawo mana su mu kashe.”
13 And Saul said, No man shall die this day, for today the Lord has wrought deliverance in Israel.
Shawulu ya ce, “Ba wanda zai mutu yau, gama Ubangiji ya kuɓutar da Isra’ila a wannan rana.”
14 And Samuel spoke to the people, saying, Let us go to Galgala, and there renew the kingdom.
Sai Sama’ila ya ce wa mutane, “Ku zo mu tafi Gilgal, a can za a yi wankan sarauta.”
15 And all the people went to Galgala, and Samuel anointed Saul there to be king before the Lord in Galgala, and there he offered meat-offerings and peace-offerings before the Lord: and Samuel and all Israel rejoiced exceedingly.
Don haka dukan mutane suka tafi Gilgal, suka tabbatar da Shawulu sarki a gaban Ubangiji. A can suka miƙa hadaya ta salama a gaban Ubangiji, Shawulu kuwa da dukan Isra’ila suka yi babban liyafa.
