Kings II 17
1 And Achitophel said to Abessalom, Let me now choose out for myself twelve thousand men, and I will arise and follow after David this night:
Ahitofel ya ce wa Absalom, “Zan zaɓi mutum dubu goma sha biyu su fita a daren nan in fafari Dawuda.
2 and I will come upon him when he [is] weary and weak-handed, and I will strike him with terror; and all the people with him shall flee, and I will strike the king only of all.
Zan fāɗa masa sa’ad da yake cikin gajiya da karayar zuciya. Zan firgita shi, mutanen da suke tare da shi kuwa za su gudu. Sarki ne kaɗai zan kashe
3 And I will bring back all the people to you, as a bride returns to her husband: only you seek the life of one man, and all the people shall have peace.
in dawo da dukan mutanen a gare ka. Mutuwar wanda kake nema zai zama dawowar duka; dukan mutanen ba za su cutu ba.”
4 And the saying [was] right in the eyes of Abessalom, and in the eyes of all the elders of Israel.
Wannan shawara ta gamshi Absalom da dukan dattawan Isra’ila.
5 And Abessalom said, Call now also Chusi the Arachite, and let us hear what [is] in his mouth, even in his also.
Amma Absalom ya ce, “A kira mini Hushai mutumin Arkitawan nan shi ma, mu ji abin da zai ce.”
6 And Chusi went in to Abessalom, and Abessalom spoke to him, saying, After this manner spoke Achitophel: shall we do according to his word? but if not, do you speak.
Da Hushai ya zo wurinsa, sai Absalom ya ce, “Ahitofel ya ba da wannan shawara. Mu yi abin da ya ce? In ba haka ba, sai ka ba mu ra’ayinka.”
7 And Chusi said to Abessalom, This counsel which Achitophel has counselled this one time [is] not good.
Hushai ya ce wa Absalom, “Shawarar da Ahitofel ya bayar a wannan lokaci kam, ba ta da kyau.
8 And Chusi said, You know your father and his men, that they are very mighty, and bitter in their spirit, as a bereaved bear in the field, [and as a wild boar in the plain]: and your father [is] a man of war, and will not give the people rest.
Ka san mahaifinka da mutanensa mayaƙa ne, suna cikin fushi kamar mugun beyar da aka ƙwace mata’ya’ya. Ban da haka ma, mahaifinka gogagge ne a yaƙi; ba zai kwana da rundunar ba.
9 For, behold, he is now hidden in one of the hills or in some [other] place: and it shall come to pass when he falls upon them at the beginning, that [some one] will certainly hear, and say, There has been a slaughter among the people that follow after Abessalom.
Kai, ko yanzu ma, ya riga ya ɓuya cikin kogo ko kuma a wani wuri. In har ya fara kai wa rundunarka hari duk wanda ya ji, zai ce, ‘An yi kaca-kaca da rundunar da suka bi Absalom.’
10 Then even he [that is] strong, whose heart is as the heart of a lion, —it shall utterly melt: for all Israel knows that your father [is] mighty, and they that are with him [are] mighty men.
Kai, ko jarumi mai zuciya kamar na zaki ma, zai narke don tsoro, gama dukan Isra’ila sun sani mahaifinka mayaƙi ne, sun kuma san cewa waɗanda suke tare da shi jarumawa ne.
11 For thus I have surely given counsel, that all Israel be generally gathered to you from Dan even to Bersabee, as the sand that is upon the sea-shore for multitude: and that your presence go in the midst of them.
“Saboda haka ina ba ka shawara, bari a tara maka dukan Isra’ila, daga Dan zuwa Beyersheba da yawansu ya yi kamar yashin bakin teku, kai kanka ka jagorance su zuwa fagen fama.
12 And we will come upon him in one of the places where we shall find him, and we will encamp against him, as the dew falls upon the earth; and we will not leave of him and of his men so much as one.
Sa’an nan za mu fāɗa masa duk inda yake, za mu fāɗa masa kamar yadda raɓa takan fāɗo a bisa ƙasa. Da shi da mutanensa babu ko ɗaya da za a bari da rai.
13 And if he shall have taken refuge with his army in a city, then shall all Israel take ropes to that city, and we will draw it even into the river, that there may not be left there even a stone.
In ma ya janye zuwa cikin birni, sai dukan Isra’ila su kawo igiyoyi wa wannan birni, su ja shi zuwa kwari yă wargaje, yadda ba za a bar wani dutse a kan wani ba.”
14 And Abessalom, and all the men of Israel said, The counsel of Chusi the Arachite [is] better than the counsel of Achitophel. For the Lord ordained to disconcert the good counsel of Achitophel, that the Lord might bring all evil upon Abessalom.
Absalom da dukan mutanen Isra’ila suka ce, “Shawarar Hushai mutumin Arkitawa ta fi ta Ahitofel kyau.” Gama Ubangiji ya ƙudura yă wofinta kyakkyawar shawarar Ahitofel, don yă jawo wa Absalom masifa.
15 And Chusi the Arachite said to Sadoc and Abiathar the priests, Thus and thus Achitophel counselled Abessalom and the elders of Israel; and thus and thus have I counselled.
Hushai ya ce wa Zadok da Abiyatar, firistoci, “Ahitofel ya ba wa Absalom da dattawan Isra’ila shawara su yi kaza da kaza, amma na ba su shawara su yi haka, su yi haka.
16 And now send quickly and report to David, saying, Lodge not this night in Araboth of the wilderness: even go and make haste, lest [one] swallow up the king, and all the people with him.
Yanzu sai ku aika wa Dawuda saƙo nan da nan ku ce masa, ‘Kada ka kwana a mashigai cikin hamada; ka tabbata ka haye ba faci, in ba haka ba sarki da dukan mutanensa za su hallaka.’”
17 And Jonathan and Achimaas stood by the well of Rogel, and a maidservant went and reported to them, and they go and tell king David; for they might not be seen to enter into the city.
Yonatan da Ahimawaz suna zaune a En Rogel. Wata baranya ce za tă je ta faɗa musu, su kuma su tafi su gaya wa Sarki Dawuda don suna tsoro kada a ga suna shiga birnin.
18 But a young man saw them and told Abessalom: and the two went quickly, and entered into the house of a man in Baurim; and he had a well in his court, and they went down into it.
Amma wani saurayi ya gan su, ya gaya wa Absalom. Sai dukansu biyu suka tashi da sauri suka shiga gidan wani mutum a Bahurim. Yana da rijiya a cikin gida, sai suka shiga cikinta.
19 And a woman took a covering, and spread it over the mouth of the well, and spread out ground corn upon it to dry, and the thing was not known.
Matarsa mutumin kuwa ta kawo tabarma ta shimfiɗa a bakin rijiyar, sai ta kawo hatsi ta baza a kanta. Ba kuwa wanda ya san abin da ta yi.
20 And the servants of Abessalom came to the woman into the house, and said, Where [are] Achimaas and Jonathan? and the woman said to them, They are gone a little way beyond the water. And they sought and found them not, and returned to Jerusalem.
Da mutanen Absalom suka zo wurin matan a gidan, suka ce, “Ina Yonatan da Ahimawaz?” Matar ta ce, “Tuni, sun haye rafi.” Sai mutanen suka yi ta nemansu amma ba su ga kowa, sai suka koma Urushalima.
21 And it came to pass after they were gone, that they came up out of the pit, and went on their way; and reported to king David, and said to David, Arise you and go quickly over the water, for thus has Achitophel counselled concerning you.
Bayan mutanen suka tafi, sai su biyun suka fito daga rijiyar suka je suka gaya wa Sarki Dawuda. Suka ce masa, “Maza ka ƙetare kogi; Ahitofel ya ba wa Absalom shawara a yi maka kaza da kaza.”
22 And David rose up and all the people with him, and they passed over Jordan till the morning light; there was not one missing who did not pass over Jordan.
Saboda haka Dawuda da dukan mutanen da suke tare da shi suka tashi suka ƙetare Urdun. Kafin wayewar gari, babu wanda ya rage da bai haye ba.
23 And Achitophel saw that his counsel was not followed, and he saddled his ass, and rose and departed to his house into his city; and he gave orders to his household, and hanged himself, and died, and was buried in the sepulchre of his father.
Da Ahitofel ya ga ba a bi shawararsa ba, sai ya hau jakinsa ya koma gidansa a garinsu. Ya kintsa gidansa sa’an nan ya rataye kansa. Ta haka ya mutu, aka kuma binne shi a kabarin mahaifinsa.
24 And David passed over to Manaim: and Abessalom crossed over Jordan, he and all the men of Israel with him.
Dawuda kuwa ya tafi Mahanayim. Absalom kuma ya ƙetare Urdun tare da dukan mutanen Isra’ila.
25 And Abessalom appointed Amessai in the room of Joab over the host. And Amessai was the son of a man whose name was Jether of Jezrael: he went in to Abigaia the daughter of Naas, the sister of Saruia the mother of Joab.
Absalom ya riga ya naɗa Amasa a kan sojoji a maimakon Yowab. Amasa kuwa ɗan wani mutum mai suna Itra ne, mutumin Ishmayel wanda ya auri Abigiyel,’yar Nahash,’yar’uwar Zeruhiya mahaifiyar Yowab.
26 And all Israel and Abessalom encamped in the land of Galaad.
Isra’ilawa da Absalom suka kafa sansani a ƙasar Gileyad.
27 And it came to pass when David came to Manaim, that Uesbi the son of Naas of Rabbath of the sons of Ammon, and Machir son of Amiel of Lodabar, and Berzelli the Galaadite of Rogellim,
Sa’ad da Dawuda ya zo Mahanayim, sai Shobi ɗan Nahash daga Rabba ta Ammonawa, da Makir ɗan Ammiyel daga Lo Debar, da Barzillai mutumin Gileyad daga Rogelim
28 brought ten embroidered beds, (with double coverings, ) and ten caldrons, and earthenware, and wheat, and barley, and flour, and meal, and beans, and pulse,
suka kawo wa Dawuda da mutanensa tabarmai, da kwanoni, da kayayyakin da aka yi da yumɓu. Suka kuma kawo alkama da sha’ir, da gari, da soyayyen hatsi, da wake, da waken barewa,
29 and honey, and butter, and sheep, and cheeses of kine: and they brought them to David and to his people with him to eat; for [one] said, The people [is] faint and hungry and thirsty in the wilderness.
da zuma, da kindirmo, da tumaki, da cukun madarar shanu wa Dawuda da mutanensa su ci. Gama sun ce, “Mutanen suna jin yunwa, sun kuma gaji, ga ƙishirwa a hamada.”
