1 Samuel 7
1 And the men of Kirjath-Jearim come and bring up the Ark of YHWH, and bring it into the house of Abinadab, in the height, and they have sanctified his son Eleazar to keep the Ark of YHWH.
Mutanen Kiriyat Yeyarim suka ɗauki akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji. Suka kai a gidan Abinadab da ke kan tudu, suka keɓe Eleyazar ɗansa yă lura da akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji.
2 And it comes to pass, from the day of the dwelling of the Ark in Kirjath-Jearim, that the days are multiplied—indeed, they are twenty years—and all the house of Israel wails after YHWH.
Akwatin Alkawarin ya daɗe a Kiriyat Yeyarim ya kai shekara ashirin cif. Sai dukan mutanen Isra’ila suka yi makoki suka nemi Ubangiji.
3 And Samuel speaks to all the house of Israel, saying, “If you are turning back to YHWH with all your heart—turn aside the gods of the stranger from your midst, and Ashtaroth; and prepare your heart for YHWH, and serve Him only, and He delivers you out of the hand of the Philistines.”
Saboda haka Sama’ila ya yi magana da dukan gidan Isra’ila ya ce, in har da zuciya ɗaya kuke juyowa ga Ubangiji sai ku raba kanku da baƙin alloli da gunkin nan Ashtarot, ku ba da kanku ga Ubangiji. Ku yi masa bauta shi kaɗai, zai kuɓutar da ku daga hannun Filistiyawa.
4 And the sons of Israel turn aside the Ba‘alim and Ashtaroth, and serve YHWH alone;
Sai Isra’ilawa suka rabu da gumakan Ba’al da Ashtarot suka bauta wa Ubangiji kaɗai.
5 and Samuel says, “Gather all Israel to Mizpeh, and I pray to YHWH for you.”
Sama’ila ya ce, “Ku tattara dukan Isra’ila a Mizfa, ni kuwa zan yi addu’a ga Ubangiji dominku.”
6 And they are gathered to Mizpeh, and draw water, and pour out before YHWH, and fast on that day, and say there, “We have sinned against YHWH”; and Samuel judges the sons of Israel in Mizpeh.
Sa’ad da suka taru a Mizfa, suka kawo ruwa suka zuba a gaban Ubangiji. A wannan rana suka yi azumi suka tuba, suka ce, “Mun yi wa Ubangiji zunubi!” Sama’ila kuwa ya zauna a Mizfa ya yi mulkin Isra’ilawa.
7 And the Philistines hear that the sons of Israel have gathered themselves to Mizpeh; and the princes of the Philistines go up against Israel, and the sons of Israel hear, and are afraid of the presence of the Philistines.
Da Filistiyawa suka ji cewa Isra’ila sun taru a Mizfa, sai shugabanninsu suka zo don su yaƙe Isra’ila. Da Isra’ilawa suka ji labarin, sai suka tsorata saboda Filistiyawa.
8 And the sons of Israel say to Samuel, “Do not keep silent for us from crying to our God YHWH, and He saves us out of the hand of the Philistines.”
Suka ce wa Sama’ila, “Kada ka fasa kai kukanmu ga Ubangiji Allahnmu saboda mu, don yă cece mu daga hannun Filistiyawa.”
9 And Samuel takes a fat lamb, and causes it to go up—a whole burnt-offering to YHWH; and Samuel cries to YHWH for Israel, and YHWH answers him;
Sama’ila ya kama ɗan rago ya miƙa shi ɗungum hadaya ta ƙonawa ga Ubangiji. Ya yi roƙo ga Ubangiji a madadin Isra’ila, Ubangiji kuwa ya amsa addu’arsa.
10 and Samuel is causing the burnt-offering to go up—and the Philistines have drawn near to battle against Israel—and YHWH thunders with a great noise, on that day, on the Philistines, and troubles them, and they are struck before Israel.
Lokacin da Sama’ila yana miƙa hadaya ta ƙonawa, Filistiyawa suka matso kusa don su yi yaƙi da Isra’ila. A ranar Ubangiji ya sa babban tsawa ya ruɗar da Filistiyawa har suka gudu a gaban Isra’ilawa.
11 And the men of Israel go out from Mizpeh, and pursue the Philistines, and strike them to the place of Beth-Car.
Isra’ilawa suka fito a guje daga Mizfa suka fafari Filistiyawa suka yi ta karkashe su a hanya har kwarin Bet-Kar.
12 And Samuel takes a stone, and sets [it] between Mizpeh and Shen, and calls its name Eben-Ezer, saying, “Until now YHWH has helped us.”
Sa’an nan Sama’ila ya ɗauki dutse ya kafa tsakanin Mizfa da Shen, ya sa masa suna, Ebenezer ma’ana, “Har zuwa wannan lokaci Ubangiji ya taimake mu.”
13 And the Philistines are humbled, and have not added anymore to come into the border of Israel, and the hand of YHWH is on the Philistines all the days of Samuel.
Ta haka Isra’ilawa suka ci Filistiyawa. Daga ranan Filistiyawa ba su ƙara yin nasara a kan Isra’ila ba. Ubangiji ya yi gāba da Filistiyawa har ƙarshen zamanin Sama’ila.
14 And the cities which the Philistines have taken from Israel are restored to Israel—from Ekron even to Gath—and Israel has delivered their border out of the hand of the Philistines; and there is peace between Israel and the Amorite.
Filistiyawa suka mayar wa Isra’ila da garuruwan da suka ƙwato, wato, daga Ekron zuwa Gat, dukan yankin ƙasarsu da yake ƙarƙashin ikon Filistiyawa. Aka kuma sami zaman lafiya tsakanin Isra’ilawa da Amoriyawa.
15 And Samuel judges Israel all the days of his life,
Sama’ila kuwa ya ci gaba da mulkin Isra’ila dukan rayuwarsa.
16 and he has gone from year to year, and gone around Beth-El, and Gilgal, and Mizpeh, and judged Israel [in] all these places;
Shekara-shekara Sama’ila yakan fita rangadi zuwa Betel, da Gilgal da Mizfa inda yakan yi musu shari’a.
17 and his returning [is] to Ramath, for his house [is] there, and he has judged Israel there, and he builds an altar to YHWH there.
Amma yakan komo Rama inda gidansa yake, a nan yakan yi wa Isra’ila shari’a. A nan ne kuma ya gina wa Ubangiji bagade.
