Genesis 24
1 And Abraham [is] old, he has entered into days, and YHWH has blessed Abraham in all [things];
Yanzu fa Ibrahim ya tsufa, yana da shekaru masu yawa, Ubangiji kuma ya albarkace shi a kowace hanya.
2 and Abraham says to his servant, the eldest of his house, who is ruling over all that he has, “Please put your hand under my thigh,
Sai Ibrahim ya ce wa babban bawan gidansa, wanda yake lura da duk abin da yake da shi, “Sa hannunka a ƙarƙashin cinyata.
3 and I cause you to swear by YHWH, God of the heavens and God of the earth, that you do not take a wife for my son from the daughters of the Canaanite, in the midst of whom I am dwelling;
Ina so ka rantse da sunan Ubangiji Allah na sama da ƙasa, cewa ba za ka samo wa ɗana mata daga’yan matan Kan’aniyawa, waɗanda nake zama cikinsu ba.
4 but to my land and to my family you go, and have taken a wife for my son, for Isaac.”
Amma za ka tafi ƙasata da kuma cikin’yan’uwana, ka samo mata saboda ɗana Ishaku.”
5 And the servant says to him, “It may be the woman is not willing to come after me to this land; do I at all cause your son to return to the land from where you came out?”
Bawan ya ce masa, “Me zai faru in matar ba tă yarda tă zo tare da ni zuwa wannan ƙasa ba? In komar da ɗanka a ƙasar da ka fito ne ke nan?”
6 And Abraham says to him, “Take heed to yourself lest you cause my son to return there;
Ibrahim ya ce, “Ka tabbata ba ka komar da ɗana can ba.”
7 YHWH, God of the heavens, who has taken me from the house of my father, and from the land of my birth, and who has spoken to me, and who has sworn to me, saying, To your seed I give this land, He sends His messenger before you, and you have taken a wife for my son from there;
Ubangiji Allah na sama, wanda ya fitar da ni daga gidan mahaifina, da kuma ƙasar asalina wanda kuma ya yi magana da ni, ya yi mini alkawari da rantsuwa cewa, “Ga zuriyarka zan ba da wannan ƙasa, zai aika mala’ikansa yă sha gabanka domin ka samo wa ɗana mata daga can.
8 and if the woman is not willing to come after you, then you have been acquitted from this my oath: only you do not cause my son to return there.”
In matar ba tă yarda tă zo tare da kai ba, za a kuɓutar da kai daga wannan rantsuwa. Sai dai kada ka kai ɗana a can.”
9 And the servant puts his hand under the thigh of Abraham his lord, and swears to him concerning this matter.
Saboda haka bawan ya sa hannunsa a ƙarƙashin cinyar maigidansa Ibrahim, ya kuma rantse masa game da wannan al’amari.
10 And the servant takes ten camels of the camels of his lord and goes, also of all the goods of his lord in his hand, and he rises, and goes to Aram-Naharaim, to the city of Nahor;
Sai bawan ya ɗibi raƙuma goma na maigidansa ya tafi, ɗauke da kowane irin abubuwa masu kyau daga wurin maigidansa. Ya fita don yă tafi Aram-Naharayim, ya kama hanyarsa zuwa garin Nahor.
11 and he causes the camels to kneel at the outside of the city, at the well of water, at evening, at the time of the coming out of the women who draw water.
Ya sa raƙuman suka durƙusa kusa da rijiya a bayan gari; wajen yamma ne, lokacin da mata sukan fita ɗiban ruwa.
12 And he says, “YHWH, God of my lord Abraham, please cause to meet before me this day—(and do kindness with my lord Abraham;
Sai ya yi addu’a ya ce, “Ya Ubangiji Allah na maigidana Ibrahim, ka ba ni nasara yau, ka kuma nuna alheri ga maigidana Ibrahim.
13 behold, I am standing by the fountain of water, and daughters of the men of the city are coming out to draw water;
Duba, ina tsaye a bakin rijiyar ruwa,’ya’ya matan mutanen gari kuma suna fitowa domin ɗiban ruwa.
14 and it has been, the young person to whom I say, Please incline your pitcher and I drink, and she has said, Drink, and I also water your camels)—her [whom] You have decided for Your servant, for Isaac; and by it I know that You have done kindness with my lord.”
Bari yă zama sa’ad da na ce wa wata yarinya, ‘Ina roƙonki ki saukar da tulunki domin in sha,’ in ta ce, ‘Ka sha, zan kuma ba wa raƙumanka ma’; bari tă zama ita ce ka zaɓa wa bawanka Ishaku. Ta haka zan san cewa ka nuna wa maigidana alheri.”
15 And it comes to pass, before he has finished speaking, that behold, Rebekah (who was born to Bethuel, son of Milcah, wife of Nahor, brother of Abraham) is coming out, and her pitcher on her shoulder,
Kafin ya gama addu’a, sai Rebeka ta fito da tulu a kafaɗarta. Ita’yar Betuwel ɗan Milka, matar Nahor, ɗan’uwan Ibrahim.
16 and the young person [is] of very good appearance, a virgin, and a man has not known her; and she goes down to the fountain, and fills her pitcher, and comes up.
Yarinyar kuwa kyakkyawa ce, budurwa, ba namijin da ya taɓa kwana da ita. Ta gangara zuwa rijiyar, ta cika tulunta ta kuma hauro.
17 And the servant runs to meet her and says, “Please let me swallow a little water from your pitcher”;
Bawan ya yi sauri ya same ta ya ce, “Ina roƙonki ki ba ni ɗan ruwa daga tulunki.”
18 and she says, “Drink, my lord”; and she hurries, and lets down her pitcher on her hand, and gives him drink.
Ta ce, “Ka sha, ranka yă daɗe,” ta yi sauri ta saukar da tulun a hannuwanta, ta kuma ba shi, ya sha.
19 And she finishes giving him drink and says, “Also for your camels I draw until they have finished drinking”;
Bayan ta ba shi ya sha, sai ta ce, “Zan ɗebo wa raƙumanka ruwa su ma, har sai sun gama sha.”
20 and she hurries, and empties her pitcher into the drinking-trough, and runs again to the well to draw, and draws for all his camels.
Sai ta yi sauri ta juye ruwan da yake tulunta cikin kwami, ta koma zuwa rijiyar da gudu don ta ƙara ɗebo ruwa, ta kuma ɗebo isashe saboda dukan raƙumansa.
21 And the man, wondering at her, remains silent, to know whether YHWH has made his way prosperous or not.
Mutumin bai ce uffam ba, ya dai kalle ta sosai don yă san ko Ubangiji ya ba shi nasara a tafiyarsa ko babu.
22 And it comes to pass, when the camels have finished drinking, that the man takes a golden ring (whose weight [is] a bekah), and two bracelets for her hands (whose weight [is] ten [bekahs] of gold),
Sa’ad da raƙuman suka gama shan ruwa, mutumin ya fitar da zoben hanci na zinariya mai nauyin giram biyar da woroworo biyu na zinariya masu nauyin shekel goma, ya ba ta.
23 and says, “Whose daughter [are] you? Please declare to me, is the house of your father a place for us to lodge in?”
Sa’an nan ya tambaye ta ya ce, “Ke’yar wace ce? Ina roƙonki ki faɗa mini, akwai wuri a gidan mahaifinki da za mu kwana?”
24 And she says to him, “I [am] daughter of Bethuel, son of Milcah, whom she has borne to Nahor.”
Sai ta ce masa, “Ni’yar Betuwel ce ɗan da Milka ta haifa wa Nahor.”
25 She also says to him, “Both straw and provender [are] abundant with us, also a place to lodge in.”
Ta ƙara da cewa, “Muna da isashen ciyawa da abincin dabbobi, da kuma wuri domin ku kwana.”
26 And the man bows, and pays respect to YHWH,
Sa’an nan mutumin ya rusuna ya yi wa Ubangiji sujada,
27 and says, “Blessed [is] YHWH, God of my lord Abraham, who has not left off His kindness and His truth with my lord—I [being] in the way, YHWH has led me to the house of my lord’s brothers.”
yana cewa, “Yabo ya tabbata ga Ubangiji Allah na maigidana Ibrahim, wanda bai daina nuna alheri da amincinsa ga maigidana ba. Ni kam, Ubangiji ya bishe ni a tafiyata zuwa gidan’yan’uwan maigidana.”
28 And the young person runs, and declares to the house of her mother according to these words.
Yariyan ta gudu ta faɗa wa mutanen gidan mahaifiyarta game da abubuwan nan.
29 And Rebekah has a brother, and his name [is] Laban, and Laban runs to the man who [is] outside, to the fountain;
Rebeka fa tana da wani ɗan’uwa mai suna Laban, sai ya yi hanzari ya fita zuwa wurin mutumin a rijiyar.
30 indeed, it comes to pass, when he sees the ring, and the bracelets on the hands of his sister, and when he hears the words of his sister Rebekah, saying, “Thus has the man spoken to me,” that he comes to the man, and behold, he is standing by the camels by the fountain.
Nan da nan da ya ga zoben hancin da woroworo a hannuwan’yar’uwansa, ya kuma ji Rebeka ta faɗa abin da mutumin ya ce mata, sai ya fita zuwa wurin mutumin, ya same shi yana tsaye wajen raƙuma kusa da rijiyar.
31 And he says, “Come in, O blessed one of YHWH! Why do you stand outside—and I have prepared the house and place for the camels?”
Sai ya ce, “Zo, ya kai mai albarka na Ubangiji, don me kake tsaye a waje? Gama na shirya gida da wuri domin raƙuma.”
32 And he brings in the man into the house, and looses the camels, and gives straw and provender for the camels, and water to wash his feet, and the feet of the men who [are] with him:
Don haka mutumin ya tafi gidan, aka kuma saukar da kaya kan raƙuman. Aka kawo wa raƙuman ciyawa da abincin dabbobi, aka kuma kawo ruwa dominsa da mutanensa su wanke ƙafafunsu.
33 and sets before him to eat; but he says, “I do not eat until I have spoken my word”; and he says, “Speak.”
Sa’an nan aka ajiye abinci a gabansa, amma ya ce, “Ba zan ci ba, sai na faɗi abin da yake tafe da ni.” Sai Laban ya ce, “Faɗa mana.”
34 And he says, “I [am] Abraham’s servant;
Saboda haka ya ce, “Ni bawan Ibrahim ne.
35 and YHWH has blessed my lord exceedingly, and he is great; and He gives to him flock, and herd, and silver, and gold, and menservants, and maidservants, and camels, and donkeys;
Ubangiji ya albarkaci maigidana sosai, ya kuma zama mai arziki. Ya ba shi tumaki, shanu, azurfa, zinariya, bayi maza da mata, raƙuma, da kuma jakuna.
36 and Sarah, my lord’s wife, bears a son to my lord, after she has been aged, and he gives to him all that he has.
Saratu matar maigidana ta haifa masa ɗa a tsufanta, ya kuma ba shi duk mallakarsa.
37 And my lord causes me to swear, saying, You do not take a wife to my son from the daughters of the Canaanite, in whose land I am dwelling.
Maigidana ya sa na yi rantsuwa, ya kuma ce, ‘Kada ka ɗauko wa ɗana mata daga’ya’ya matan Kan’aniyawa, waɗanda nake zama a ƙasarsu,
38 If not—to the house of my father you go, and to my family, and you have taken a wife for my son.
amma ka tafi wajen gidan mahaifina da kuma dangina, ka ɗauko wa ɗana mata.’
39 And I say to my lord, It may be the woman does not come after me;
“Sai na ce wa maigidana, ‘A ce matar ba tă yarda tă zo tare da ni ba fa?’
40 and he says to me, YHWH, before whom I have habitually walked, sends His messenger with you, and has prospered your way, and you have taken a wife for my son from my family, and from the house of my father;
“Maigidana ya ce, ‘Ubangiji wanda yake tare da ni zai aiki mala’ikansa tare da kai, yă kuma sa tafiyarka tă yi nasara, don ka samo wa ɗana mata daga dangina, daga kuma gidan mahaifina.
41 then you are acquitted from my oath, when you come to my family; and if they do not give [one] to you, then you have been acquitted from my oath.
Ta haka za ka kuɓuta daga rantsuwata sa’ad da ka tafi wurin dangina, ko ma sun ƙi su ba ka ita, za ka kuɓuta daga rantsuwata.’
42 And I come to the fountain today, and I say, YHWH, God of my lord Abraham, now if You are making prosperous my way in which I am going—
“Sa’ad da na zo rijiya a yau, na ce, ‘Ya Ubangiji Allah na maigidana Ibrahim, ina roƙonka ka ba ni nasara a tafiyar da na yi.
43 (behold, I am standing by the fountain of water), then the virgin is coming out to draw, and I have said to her, Please let me drink a little water from your pitcher,
Duba, ina tsaye kusa da wannan rijiya; in wata yarinya ta fito domin tă ɗiba ruwa, wadda in na ce mata, “Ina roƙonki bari in ɗan sha ruwa daga tulunki,”
44 and she has said to me, Both drink, and I also draw for your camels—she is the woman whom YHWH has decided for my lord’s son.
in ta ce, “Ka sha, zan kuma ba wa raƙumanka ma,” bari tă zama wadda Ubangiji ya zaɓar wa ɗan maigidana.’
45 Before I finish speaking to my heart, then behold, Rebekah is coming out, and her pitcher [is] on her shoulder, and she goes down to the fountain and draws; and I say to her, Please let me drink,
“Kafin in gama addu’ar, a zuciyata, sai ga Rebeka ta fito da tulunta a kafaɗarta. Ta gangara zuwa rijiyar ta ɗebo ruwa, na kuma ce mata, ‘Ina roƙonki ki ba ni ɗan ruwa daga tulunki.’
46 and she hurries and lets down her pitcher from off her and says, Drink, and I also water your camels; and I drink, and she has also watered the camels.
“Ta yi sauri ta saukar da tulun daga kafaɗarta ta ce, ‘Sha, zan kuma ba wa raƙumanka su ma.’ Sai na sha, ta kuma shayar da raƙumana su ma.
47 And I ask her, and say, Whose daughter [are] you? And she says, Daughter of Bethuel, son of Nahor, whom Milcah has borne to him, and I put the ring on her nose, and the bracelets on her hands,
“Na tambaye ta, ‘Ke’yar wane ne?’ “Ta ce, ‘’Yar Betuwel ɗan Nahor, wanda Milka ta haifa masa.’ “Sai na sa mata zobe a hancinta, woroworo kuma a hannuwata,
48 and I bow, and pay respect before YHWH, and I bless YHWH, God of my lord Abraham, who has led me in the true way to receive the daughter of my lord’s brother for his son.
na kuma sunkuya na yi wa Ubangiji sujada. Na yabi Ubangiji Allah na maigidana Ibrahim wanda ya bi da ni a hanyar da take daidai, don in samo wa ɗan maigidana jikanyar ɗan’uwansa.
49 And now, if you are dealing kindly and truly with my lord, declare to me; and if not, declare to me; and I turn to the right or to the left.”
Yanzu fa in za ku nuna wa maigidana alheri da aminci, ku faɗa mini, in kuma ba haka ba, ku faɗa mini, don in san hanyar da zan juya.”
50 And Laban answers—Bethuel also—and they say, “The thing has gone out from YHWH; we are not able to speak to you bad or good;
Laban da Betuwel suka ce, “Wannan daga wurin Ubangiji ne, ba abin da za mu ce I, ko a’a ba.
51 behold, Rebekah [is] before you, take and go, and she is a wife to your lord’s son, as YHWH has spoken.”
Ga Rebeka, ɗauke ta ku tafi, bari tă zama matar ɗan maigidanka, yadda Ubangiji ya umarta.”
52 And it comes to pass, when the servant of Abraham has heard their words, that he bows himself toward the earth before YHWH;
Sa’ad da bawan Ibrahim ya ji abin da suka ce, sai ya rusuna har ƙasa a gaban Ubangiji.
53 and the servant takes out vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and garments, and gives to Rebekah; precious things also he has given to her brother and to her mother.
Sa’an nan bawan ya fito da kayan ado na zinariya da azurfa da kayayyaki na tufafi ya ba wa Rebeka; ya kuma ba wa ɗan’uwanta da mahaifiyarta kyautai masu tsada.
54 And they eat and drink, he and the men who [are] with him, and lodge all night; and they rise in the morning, and he says, “Send me to my lord”;
Sa’an nan shi da mutanen da suke tare da shi suka ci, suka sha, suka kuma kwana a can. Kashegari da safe da suka tashi sai ya ce, “A sallame ni in koma wurin maigidana.”
55 and her brother says—her mother also, “Let the young person abide with us a week or ten days, afterward she goes.”
Amma ɗan’uwanta da mahaifiyarta suka ce, “Bari yarinyar ta ɗan zauna tare da mu kwana goma ko fiye, sa’an nan ka ta fi.”
56 And he says to them, “Do not delay me, seeing YHWH has prospered my way; send me away, and I go to my lord”;
Amma ya ce musu, “Kada ku tsai da ni, tun da Ubangiji ya ba ni nasara a tafiyata. Ku sallame ni domin in tafi wurin maigidana.”
57 and they say, “Let us call for the young person, and inquire of her mouth”;
Sa’an nan suka ce, “Bari mu kira yarinyar mu tambaye ta game da zancen.”
58 and they call for Rebekah, and say to her, “Do you go with this man?” And she says, “I go.”
Saboda haka suka kira Rebeka suka ce mata, “Za ki tafi tare da mutumin nan?” Sai ta ce, “Zan tafi.”
59 And they send away their sister Rebekah, and her nurse, and Abraham’s servant, and his men;
Saboda haka suka sallame Rebeka,’yar’uwarsu, duk da uwar goyonta da bawan Ibrahim da mutanensa.
60 and they bless Rebekah, and say to her, “You [are] our sister; become thousands of myriads, and your seed possesses the gate of those hating it.”
Suka kuma albarkaci Rebeka suka ce mata, “’Yar’uwarmu, bari ki zama mahaifiyar dubu dubbai, bari zuriyarki su mallaki ƙofofin abokan gābansu.”
61 And Rebekah and her young women arise, and ride on the camels, and go after the man; and the servant takes Rebekah and goes.
Sa’an nan Rebeka da bayinta mata suka shirya suka hau raƙumansu suka koma tare da mutumin. Da haka bawan ya ɗauki Rebeka ya tafi.
62 And Isaac has come in from the entrance of the Well of the Living One, my Beholder; and he is dwelling in the land of the south,
Ishaku kuwa ya zo daga Beyer-Lahai-Royi, gama yana zama a Negeb.
63 and Isaac goes out to meditate in the field, at the turning of the evening, and he lifts up his eyes, and looks, and behold, camels are coming.
Wata rana da yamma ya fita zuwa fili domin yă yi tunani, sa’ad da ya ɗaga ido, sai ya ga raƙuma suna zuwa.
64 And Rebekah lifts up her eyes, and sees Isaac, and comes down off the camel;
Rebeka ma ta ɗaga ido sai ta ga Ishaku. Ta sauka daga raƙuminta da sauri,
65 and she says to the servant, “Who [is] this man who is walking in the field to meet us?” And the servant says, “It [is] my lord”; and she takes the veil, and covers herself.
ta ce wa bawan, “Wane ne mutumin can a fili, da yake zuwa yă tarye mu?” Bawan ya ce, “Maigidana ne.” Saboda haka ta ɗauki mayafinta to rufe kanta.
66 And the servant recounts to Isaac all the things that he has done,
Sai bawan ya faɗa wa Ishaku duk abin da ya yi.
67 and Isaac brings her into the tent of his mother Sarah, and he takes Rebekah, and she becomes his wife, and he loves her, and Isaac is comforted after [the death of] his mother.
Ishaku ya kawo ta cikin tentin mahaifiyarsa Saratu, ya kuma auri Rebeka. Ta haka ta zama matarsa, ya kuwa ƙaunace ta; Ishaku kuma ya ta’azantu bayan rasuwar mahaifiyarsa.
