< Judges 8 >

1 And the men of Ephraim say to him, “What [is] this thing you have done to us—not to call for us when you went to fight with Midian?” And they strive with him severely;
To, mutanen Efraim suka ce wa Gideyon, “Me ya sa ka yi mana haka? Me ya sa ba ka kira mu lokacin da ka tafi yaƙi da Midiyawa ba?” Suka zarge shi sosai.
2 and he says to them, “What have I now done like you? Are the gleanings of Ephraim not better than the harvest of Abi-Ezer?
Amma ya ce musu, “Me na yi da za a iya kwatanta da abin da kuka yi? Ashe, kalar inabin da Efraim ta yi bai fi dukan girbin inabin da Abiyezer suka yi ba?
3 God has given the heads of Midian, Oreb and Zeeb, into your hand; and what have I been able to do like you?” Then their temper desisted from off him in his speaking this thing.
Allah ya ba da Oreb da Zeyib, shugabannin Midiyawa a hannuwanku. Me na yi da ya fi naku? Da ya faɗi haka sai hankalinsu ya kwanta.”
4 And Gideon comes to the Jordan, passing over, he and the three hundred men who [are] with him—wearied, yet pursuing—
Gideyon da mutanensa ɗari uku, sun gaji, duk da haka suka yi ta fafarar, suka zo Urdun suka haye shi.
5 and he says to the men of Succoth, “Please give cakes of bread to the people who [are] at my feet, for they [are] wearied, and I am pursuing after Zebah and Zalmunna, kings of Midian.”
Ya ce wa mutanen Sukkot, “Ku ba wa mutanena burodi; sun gaji, har yanzu ina fafarar Zeba da Zalmunna, sarakunan Midiyawa.”
6 And the heads of Succoth say, “Is the hand of Zebah and Zalmunna now in your hand, that we give bread to your host?”
Amma shugabannin Sukkot suka ce, “Ka kama Zeba da Zalmunna ko ne? Don me za mu ba wa mayaƙanka burodi?”
7 And Gideon says, “Therefore—in YHWH’s giving Zebah and Zalmunna into my hand—I have threshed your flesh with the thorns of the wilderness, and with the threshing instruments.”
Sai Gideyon ya ce, “Haka ko? To, sa’ad da Ubangiji ya ba da Zeba da Zalmunna a hannuna, zan tsattsaga jikinku da ƙayayyuwan jeji.”
8 And he goes up there [to] Penuel, and speaks to them thus; and the men of Penuel answer him as the men of Succoth answered.
Daga nan ya wuce zuwa Fenuwel ya yi irin roƙon nan, amma suka amsa yadda mutanen Sukkot suka yi.
9 And he also speaks to the men of Penuel, saying, “In my turning back in peace, I break down this tower.”
Saboda haka sai ya ce wa mutanen Fenuwel, “Sa’ad da na dawo da nasara zan rushe wannan hasumiya.”
10 And Zebah and Zalmunna [are] in Karkor, and their camps with them, about fifteen thousand, all who are left of all the camp of the sons of the east; and those falling [are] one hundred and twenty thousand men, drawing sword.
To, Zeba da Zalmunna suna a Karkor da mayaƙa wajen dubu goma sha biyar, abin da ya rage ke nan na mayaƙan gabashi; mayaƙa masu takobi dubu ɗari da ashirin ne suka mutu.
11 And Gideon goes up the way of those who dwell in tents, on the east of Nobah and Jogbehah, and strikes the camp, and the camp was confident;
Gideyon ya haura ta hanyar makiyaya, gabas da Noba, da kuma Yogbeha, ya fāɗa wa mayaƙan ta yadda ba su zata ba.
12 and Zebab and Zalmunna flee, and he pursues after them, and captures the two kings of Midian, Zebah and Zalmunna, and he has caused all the camp to tremble.
Zeba da Zalmunna, sarakunan biyu na Midiyawa suka tsere, amma ya bi su ya kama, ya fatattaki dukan mayaƙansu.
13 And Gideon son of Joash turns back from the battle, at the going up of the sun,
Sa’an nan Gideyon ɗan Yowash ya komo daga yaƙi ta Hanyar Heres.
14 and captures a young man of the men of Succoth, and asks him, and he describes to him the heads of Succoth, and its elderly—seventy-seven men.
Ya kama wani saurayin Sukkot ya tambaye shi, saurayin kuwa ya rubuta masa dukan sunayen shugabanni saba’in da bakwai na Sukkot, da dattawan garin.
15 And he comes to the men of Succoth and says, “Behold Zebah and Zalmunna, with whom you reproached me, saying, Is the hand of Zebah and Zalmunna now in your hand that we give bread to your men who [are] wearied?”
Sa’an nan Gideyon ya zo ya ce wa mutanen Sukkot, “To, ga Zeba da Zalmunna, waɗanda kuka yi mini ba’a kuna cewa, ‘Ka kama Zeba da Zalmunna ko ne? Me zai sa mu ba mutanenka da suka gaji burodi?’”
16 And he takes the elderly of the city, and [the] thorns of the wilderness, and the threshing instruments, and teaches the men of Succoth by them,
Ya kwashe dattawan garin ya koya wa mutanen Sukkot hankali ta wurin hukunta su da ƙayayyuwan hamada.
17 and he has broken down the Tower of Penuel, and slays the men of the city.
Ya rushe hasumiyar Fenuwel ya kuma karkashe mutanen garin.
18 And he says to Zebah and to Zalmunna, “What manner of men [were they] whom you slew in Tabor?” And they say, “As you—so they, [each] one as the form of the king’s sons.”
Sa’an nan ya ce wa Zeba da Zalmunna, “Waɗanne irin mutane ne kuka karkashe a Tabor.” Suka ce, “Mutane kamar ka ne kowane kamar ɗan sarki.”
19 And he says, “They [were] my brothers—sons of my mother; YHWH lives, if you had kept them alive—I would not kill you.”
Gideyon ya ce, “Waɗannan’yan’uwana ne,’ya’yan mahaifiyata. Muddin Ubangiji yana a raye, da a ce kun bar su da rai, da ba zan kashe ku ba.”
20 And he says to his firstborn Jether, “Rise, slay them”; and the young man has not drawn his sword, for he has been afraid, for he [is] yet a youth.
Da ya juya wajen Yeter, ɗan farinsa, sai ya ce, “Ka kashe su!” Amma Yeter bai zāre takobinsa ba, domin shi yaro ne kawai kuma yana tsoro.
21 And Zebah and Zalmunna say, “Rise and fall on us; for as the man—his might”; and Gideon rises, and slays Zebah and Zalmunna, and takes the crescents which [are] on the necks of their camels.
Zeba da Zalmunna suka ce masa, “Zo, ka yi da kanka. ‘Yadda mutum yake haka ƙarfinsa.’” Ta haka Gideyon ya matso gaba ya kashe su, ya ɗauki kayan ado daga wuyar raƙumansu.
22 And the men of Israel say to Gideon, “Rule over us, both you, and your son, and your son’s son, for you have saved us from the hand of Midian.”
Isra’ilawa suka ce wa Gideyon, “Ka yi mulkinmu, kai, ɗanka da jikanka, domin ka cece mu daga hannun Midiyawa.”
23 And Gideon says to them, “I do not rule over you, nor does my son rule over you; YHWH rules over you.”
Amma Gideyon ya ce musu, “Ni, ko ɗana, ba za mu yi mulkinku ba. Ubangiji ne zai yi mulkinku.”
24 And Gideon says to them, “Let me ask a petition of you, and each give to me the ring of his prey, for they have rings of gold, for they [are] Ishmaelites.”
Kuma ya ce, “Ina da roƙo guda ɗaya, cewa kowannenku ya ba ni’yan kunne daga rabon ganima.” (Al’adar mutanen Ishmayel ce su sa’yan kunnen zinariya.)
25 And they say, “We certainly give”; and they spread out the garment, and each casts the ring of his prey there;
Suka ce, “Za mu yi farin cikin ba ka su.” Saboda haka suka shimfiɗa mayafi, kowanne ya sa ɗan kunne ɗaya daga ganimar.
26 and the weight of the rings of gold which he asked for is one thousand and seven hundred [shekels] of gold, apart from the crescents, and the pendants, and the purple garments, which [are] on the kings of Midian, and apart from the chains which [are] on the necks of their camels,
Nauyin’yan kunnen zinariyar ya kai shekel ɗari goma sha bakwai, ban da kayan ado, abin wuya da tufafin shunayya waɗanda sarakuna Midiyawa suke sawa ko sarƙoƙin da suke wuyar raƙumansu.
27 and Gideon makes it into an ephod, and sets it up in his city, in Ophrah, and all Israel go whoring after it there, and it is for a snare to Gideon and to his house.
Gideyon ya efod da zinariyar, wanda ya ajiye a Ofra, garinsa. Dukan Isra’ila suka shiga yin karuwanci ta wurin yin sujada a can, ya kuwa zama wa Gideyon da dukan iyalinsa tarko.
28 And Midian is humbled before the sons of Israel, and have not added to lift up their head; and the land rests [for] forty years in the days of Gideon.
Da haka Isra’ilawa suka mallaki Midiyawa ba su kuma sāke tā da kai ba. A zamanin Gideyon ƙasar ta sami zaman lafiya har shekara arba’in.
29 And Jerubba‘al son of Joash goes and dwells in his own house,
Yerub-Ba’al ɗan Yowash ya koma gida don yă zauna.
30 and there have been seventy sons of Gideon, coming out of his loin, for he had many wives;
Yana da’ya’ya saba’in maza da ya haifa, gama yana da mata da yawa.
31 and his concubine, who [is] in Shechem, has borne to him—even she—a son, and he appoints his name Abimelech.
Yana kuma da ƙwarƙwara wadda take Shekem, ita ma ta haifa masa ɗa wanda ya ba shi suna Abimelek.
32 And Gideon son of Joash dies, in a good old age, and is buried in the burying-place of his father Joash, in Ophrah of the Abi-Ezrite.
Gideyon ɗan Yowash ya rasu da kyakkyawan tsufa aka kuma binne shi a kabarin Yowash mahaifinsa a Ofra na mutanen Abiyezer.
33 And it comes to pass, when Gideon [is] dead, that the sons of Israel turn back and go whoring after the Ba‘alim, and set Ba‘al-Berith over them for a god;
Ba a daɗe da rasuwar Gideyon ba, sai Isra’ila ta sāke shiga karuwanci suna bauta wa Ba’al. Suka kafa Ba’al-Berit yă zama musu allahnsu ba kuma
34 and the sons of Israel have not remembered their God YHWH, who is delivering them out of the hand of all their surrounding enemies,
tuna da Ubangiji Allahnsu, wanda ya cece su daga hannuwan abokan gābansu a kowane gefe ba.
35 neither have they done kindness with the house of Jerubba‘al—Gideon—according to all the good which he did with Israel.
Suka kāsa nuna alheri ga gidan Yerub-Ba’al (wato, Gideyon) saboda abubuwa masu alherin da ya yi musu.
