< 2 Samuel 3 >

1 And the war is long between the house of Saul and the house of David, and David is going on and [is] strong, and the house of Saul is going on and [is] weak.
Aka daɗe ana yaƙi tsakanin gidan Shawulu da gidan Dawuda. Dawuda kuwa ya yi ta ƙara ƙarfi, yayinda gidan Shawulu ya yi ta raguwa a ƙarfi.
2 And there are sons born to David in Hebron, and his firstborn is Amnon, of Ahinoam the Jezreelitess,
An haifa wa Dawuda’ya’ya maza a Hebron. Ɗansa na fari shi ne Amnon, ɗan Ahinowam mutuniyar Yezireyel;
3 and his second [is] Chileab, of Abigail wife of Nabal the Carmelite, and the third [is] Absalom son of Maacah daughter of Talmai king of Geshur,
na biyu shi ne Kileyab, ɗan Abigiyel gwauruwar Nabal mutumin Karmel; na uku shi ne Absalom, ɗan Ma’aka’yar Talmai sarkin Geshur;
4 and the fourth [is] Adonijah son of Haggith, and the fifth [is] Shephatiah son of Abital,
na huɗu shi ne Adoniya, ɗan Haggit; na biyar shi ne Shefatiya, ɗan Abital;
5 and the sixth [is] Ithream, of Eglah wife of David; these have been born to David in Hebron.
na shida kuma shi ne Itireyam, ɗan Egla matar Dawuda. An haifi waɗannan wa Dawuda a Hebron.
6 And it comes to pass, in the war being between the house of Saul and the house of David, that Abner has been strengthening himself in the house of Saul,
Sa’ad da ake yaƙi tsakanin gidan Shawulu da gidan Dawuda, sai Abner ya yi ta ƙarfafa matsayinsa a gidan Shawulu.
7 and Saul has a concubine, and her name [is] Rizpah daughter of Aiah, and [Ish-Bosheth] says to Abner, “Why have you gone in to the concubine of my father?”
To, Shawulu yana da ƙwarƙwarar da ake kira Rizfa,’yar Aiya. Sai Ish-Boshet ya ce wa Abner, “Don me kake kwana da ƙwarƙwarar mahaifina?”
8 And it is exceedingly displeasing to Abner, because of the words of Ish-Bosheth, and he says, “[Am] I the head of a dog—that in reference to Judah, today I do kindness with the house of your father Saul, to his brothers, and to his friends, and have not delivered you into the hand of David—that you charge against me iniquity concerning the woman today?
Abner ya husata saboda abin da Ish-Boshet ya ce, sai ya ce, “Kana tsammani ni mai cin amana ne? Kana zato ni mai goyon bayan Yahuda ne? Tun farko na nuna aminci ga gidan babanka Shawulu, da’yan’uwansa, da abokansa! Ban kuwa ba da kai a hannun Dawuda ba. Ga shi yanzu a kan mace za ka ga laifina?
9 Thus God does to Abner, and thus He adds to him, surely as YHWH has sworn to David—surely so I do to him:
Allah yă yi wa Abner hukunci mai tsanani, in ban goyi bayan Dawuda ya sami abin da Ubangiji ya yi masa alkawari da rantsuwa ba.
10 to cause the kingdom to pass over from the house of Saul, and to raise up the throne of David over Israel, and over Judah, from Dan even to Beer-Sheba.”
Zan kuma mayar wa Dawuda sarautar gidan Shawulu, in kafa kursiyin Dawuda a kan Isra’ila, da kan Yahuda tun daga Dan har zuwa Beyersheba.”
11 And he is not able to return a word [to] Abner anymore, because of his fearing him.
Ish-Boshet bai ƙara yin karambanin ce wa Abner kome ba, gama yana tsoronsa.
12 And Abner sends messengers to David for himself, saying, “Whose [is] the land?” [And] saying, “Make your covenant with me, and behold, my hand [is] with you, to bring around all Israel to you.”
Sai Abner ya aiki manzanni a madadinsa wurin Dawuda su ce masa, “Ƙasar ta wane ne? Ka yi yarjejjeniya da ni, zan kuwa taimake ka, in juye dukan Isra’ila zuwa ɓangarenka.”
13 And [David] says, “Good—I make a covenant with you; only, one thing I am asking of you, that is, you do not see my face, except [that] you first bring in Michal daughter of Saul in your coming in to see my face.”
Dawuda ya ce, “Da kyau, zan yi yarjejjeniya da kai, amma fa ina bukata abu guda daga gare ka, kada ka zo gabana in ba tare da matata Mikal,’yar Shawulu ba.”
14 And David sends messengers to Ish-Bosheth son of Saul, saying, “Give up my wife Michal, whom I betrothed to myself with one hundred foreskins of the Philistines.”
Sai Dawuda ya aiki manzanni zuwa wurin Ish-Boshet ɗan Shawulu cewa, “Ka ba ni matata Mikal wadda na biya sadakinta da loɓa ɗari na Filistiyawa.”
15 And Ish-Bosheth sends, and takes her from a man, from Phaltiel son of Laish,
Sai Ish-Boshet ya ba da umarni, aka kuwa ɗauke ta daga gidan mijinta Faltiyel ɗan Layish.
16 and her husband goes with her, going on and weeping behind her, to Bahurim, and Abner says to him, “Go, return”; and he turns back.
Amma mijin ya raka ta, yana tafe yana kuka, ya bi ta har Bahurim. Sai Abner ya ce masa, “Koma gida!” Sai ya koma.
17 And the word of Abner was with [the] elderly of Israel, saying, “Thus far you have been seeking David for king over you,
Abner ya tattauna da dattawan Isra’ila ya ce, “An daɗe kuna nema ku naɗa Dawuda sarkinku.
18 and now, do [it], for YHWH has spoken of David saying, [It is] by the hand of my servant David to save My people Israel out of the hand of the Philistines, and out of the hand of all their enemies.”
To, yanzu sai ku yi haka! Gama Ubangiji ya yi wa Dawuda alkawari ya ce, ‘Ta wurin bawana Dawuda zan ceci mutanena Isra’ila daga hannun Filistiyawa, da kuma hannun dukan abokan gābansu.’”
19 And Abner also speaks in the ears of Benjamin, and Abner also goes to speak in the ears of David in Hebron all that [is] good in the eyes of Israel, and in the eyes of all the house of Benjamin,
Abner kuma ya yi magana da mutane Benyamin da kansa. Sa’an nan ya tafi Hebron yă gaya wa Dawuda ko mene ne Isra’ila da kuma dukan gidan Benyamin suke so su yi.
20 and Abner comes to David, to Hebron, and twenty men [are] with him, and David makes a banquet for Abner and for the men who [are] with him.
Sa’ad da Abner wanda yake tare da mutane ashirin suka zo wurin Dawuda a Hebron, Dawuda ya shirya masa liyafa tare da mutanensa.
21 And Abner says to David, “I arise, and go, and gather the whole of Israel to my lord the king, and they make a covenant with you, and you have reigned over all that your soul desires”; and David sends Abner away, and he goes in peace.
Sai Abner ya ce wa Dawuda, “Bari in tafi nan da nan in tattara dukan Isra’ila wa ranka yă daɗe, sarki, saboda su yi alkawari da kai, ka kuma ka yi mulki bisa dukansu yadda ranka yake so.” Saboda haka Dawuda ya sallami Abner, ya kuwa tafi lafiya.
22 And behold, the servants of David, and Joab, have come from the troop, and have brought much spoil with them, and Abner is not with David in Hebron, for he has sent him away, and he goes in peace;
Ba a jima ba sai mutanen Dawuda da Yowab suka dawo daga hari. Suka kawo ganima da yawa tare da su. Abner kuwa ya riga ya bar Dawuda a Hebron, domin Dawuda ya sallame shi, shi kuma ya tafi lafiya.
23 and Joab and all the host that [were] with him have come, and they declare to Joab, saying, “Abner son of Ner has come to the king, and he sends him away, and he goes in peace.”
Sa’ad da Yowab da dukan sojoji suka dawo, aka gaya masa cewa Abner ɗan Ner ya zo wurin sarki, sarki kuwa ya sallame shi, ya kuma tafi lafiya.
24 And Joab comes to the king and says, “What have you done? Behold, Abner has come to you! Why [is] this—you have sent him away, and he is really gone?
Sai Yowab ya je wurin sarki ya ce, “Me ke nan ka yi? Abner ya zo wurinka. Don me ka ƙyale shi yă tafi? Ga shi kuwa ya tafi!
25 You have known Abner son of Ner, that he came to deceive you, and to know your going out and your coming in, and to know all that you are doing.”
Ka san Abner ɗan Ner ya zo ne yă ruɗe ka, yă ga fitarka da shigarka, yă kuma binciki kome da kake yi.”
26 And Joab goes out from David, and sends messengers after Abner, and they bring him back from the well of Sirah, and David did not know.
Yowab ya tashi daga gaban Dawuda ya tafi ya aika manzanni su bi Abner. Suka same shi a rijiyar Sira suka komo da shi, Dawuda kuwa bai sani ba.
27 And Abner turns back to Hebron, and Joab turns him aside to the midst of the gate to speak with him quietly, and strikes him there in the fifth [rib]—and he dies—for the blood of his brother Asahel.
To, da Abner ya komo Hebron, Yowab ya ratse da shi zuwa hanyar shigar gari kamar zai gana da shi a kaɗaice. Amma a can ya soki Abner a ciki, ya kashe shi don yă rama mutuwar ɗan’uwansa Asahel.
28 And David hears afterward and says, “My kingdom and I [are] acquitted by YHWH for all time, from the blood of Abner son of Ner;
Daga baya, Dawuda ya ji labarin sai ya ce, “Ni da masarautata har abada ba mu da laifi a gaban Ubangiji game da jinin Abner ɗan Ner.
29 it stays on the head of Joab, and on all the house of his father, and there is not cut off from the house of Joab one who has discharging, and leprous, and laying hold on a staff, and falling by a sword, and lacking bread.”
Alhakin jininsa yă kasance a kan Yowab da kuma a kan dukan iyalin mahaifinsa! Kada gidan Yowab yă rasa mai ɗiga, ko kuturu, ko mai jingina ga sanda, ko wanda aka kashe da takobi, ko kuma wanda ba shi da abinci.”
30 And Joab and his brother Abishai slew Abner because that he put their brother Asahel to death in Gibeon, in battle.
(Yowab da ɗan’uwansa Abishai suka kashe Abner don yă kashe ɗan’uwansu Asahel a yaƙin Gibeyon.)
31 And David says to Joab, and to all the people who [are] with him, “Tear your garments, and gird on sackcloth, and mourn before Abner”; and King David is going after the bier.
Sa’an nan Dawuda ya ce wa Yowab da dukan mutanen da suke tare da shi, “Ku yayyage rigunarku, ku sa tsummoki, ku yi tafiya kuna kuka a gaban Abner.” Sarki Dawuda kansa ya bi masu ɗauke da gawar daga baya.
32 And they bury Abner in Hebron, and the king lifts up his voice, and weeps at the grave of Abner, and all the people weep;
Suka binne Abner a Hebron, sarki kuwa ya ɗaga murya ya yi kuka a kabarin Abner.
33 and the king laments for Abner and says, “Does Abner die as the death of a fool?
Sarki ya kuma yi wannan waƙar makoki domin Abner ya ce, “Daidai ne Abner yă mutu, kamar yadda marasa bin doka suke mutuwa?
34 Your hands not bound, And your feet not brought near to chains! You have fallen as one falling before sons of evil!” And all the people add to weep over him.
Hannuwanka ba a daure suke ba, ƙafafunka ba a tabaibaye suke ba. Ka mutu kamar waɗanda suke mutuwa a hannun mugaye.” Sai dukan mutane suka sāke fashe da kuka saboda shi.
35 And all the people come to cause David to eat bread while yet day, and David swears, saying, “Thus God does to me, and thus He adds, for—before the going in of the sun, I taste no bread or any other thing.”
Sa’an nan duk suka zo suka roƙi Dawuda yă ci wani abu tun rana ba tă fāɗi ba; amma Dawuda ya rantse ya ce, “Bari Allah yă hukunta ni, in na ɗanɗana abinci ko wani abu kafin rana ta fāɗi!”
36 And all the people have discerned [it], and it is good in their eyes, as all that the king has done is good in the eyes of all the people;
Dukan mutane suka lura suka kuma ji daɗi ƙwarai, tabbatacce kome da sarki ya yi, ya gamshe su.
37 and all the people know, even all Israel, in that day, that it has not been from the king—to put Abner son of Ner to death.
Saboda haka a ranar dukan mutane da dukan Isra’ila suka gane sarki ba shi da hannu a kisan Abner ɗan Ner.
38 And the king says to his servants, “Do you not know that a prince and a great one has fallen this day in Israel?
Sa’an nan sarki ya ce wa mutanensa, “Ba ku gane cewa ɗan sarki kuma babban mutum ya mutu a ƙasar Isra’ila a yau ba?
39 And today I [am] tender, and an anointed king: and these men, sons of Zeruiah, [are] too hard for me; YHWH repays to the doer of the evil according to his evil.”
A yau, ko da yake ni naɗaɗɗen sarki ne, duk da haka na raunana, kuma waɗannan’ya’yan Zeruhiya sun fi ƙarfina. Ubangiji yă sāka wa mai aikata mugunta da muguntar da ya aikata!”
