2 Samuel 2
1 It happened after this, that David inquired of Jehovah, saying, "Shall I go up into any of the cities of Judah?" Jehovah said to him, "Go up." David said, "Where shall I go up?" He said, "To Hebron."
Bayan’yan kwanaki, sai Dawuda ya nemi nufin Ubangiji ya ce, “In haura zuwa ɗaya daga cikin biranen Yahuda?” Ubangiji ya ce, “Haura.” Dawuda ya ce, “Wanne zan tafi?” Ubangiji ya ce, “Je Hebron.”
2 So David went up there, and his two wives also, Ahinoam the Jezreelite and Abigail the wife of Nabal the Carmelite,
Saboda haka sai Dawuda ya tafi can tare da matansa biyu, Ahinowam daga Yezireyel da Abigiyel gwauruwar Nabal mutumin Karmel.
3 and the men who were with him, everyone with his household. And they lived in Hebron.
Dawuda kuma ya tafi tare da dukan mutanen da suke tare da shi, kowa da iyalinsa, suka zauna a Hebron da garuruwansa.
4 Then the men of Judah came, and they anointed David king over the house of Judah. When David was told that the men of Jabesh Gilead buried Saul,
Sa’an nan mutanen Yahuda suka zo Hebron, a can kuwa suka naɗa Dawuda sarkin Yahuda. Sa’ad da aka gaya wa Dawuda cewa mutanen Yabesh Gileyad ne suka binne Shawulu,
5 then he sent messengers to the lords of Jabesh Gilead, and said to them, "May you be blessed by Jehovah, since you showed loyalty towards your lord, Saul, and have buried him.
sai ya aiki manzanni zuwa Yabesh Gileyad a ce musu, “Ubangiji yă albarkace ku saboda alherin da kuka nuna wa Shawulu ta wurin binne shi.
6 Now may Jehovah show loving kindness and truth to you. I also will reward you for this kindness, because you have done this thing.
Bari Ubangiji yă nuna muku ƙaunarsa da amincinsa, ni kuma zan nuna muku irin wannan alherin saboda kun yi haka.
7 Now therefore let your hands be strong, and be valiant; for Saul your lord is dead, and also the house of Judah has anointed me king over them."
Yanzu fa, sai ku ƙarfafa, ku yi jaruntaka, gama Shawulu sarkinku ya mutu, gidan Yahuda kuwa sun naɗa ni sarki a kansu.”
8 Now Abner the son of Ner, captain of Saul's army, had taken Ishbaal the son of Saul, and brought him over to Mahanaim;
Ana cikin haka, Abner ɗan Ner, komandan sojojin Shawulu, ya ɗauki Ish-Boshet ɗan Shawulu ya kawo shi Mahanayim.
9 and he made him king over Gilead, and over the Geshurites, and over Jezreel, and over Ephraim, and over Benjamin, and over all Israel.
Ya naɗa shi sarkin Gileyad, da na Ashuri, da na Yezireyel, da a kan Efraim, da Benyamin, da kuma na dukan Isra’ila.
10 Ishbaal, Saul's son, was forty years old when he began to reign over Israel, and he reigned two years. But the house of Judah followed David.
Ish-Boshet ɗan Shawulu yana da shekaru arba’in sa’ad da ya zama sarkin Isra’ila, ya kuma yi sarauta shekara biyu. Amma fa, gidan Yahuda, suka bi Dawuda.
11 And the time that David ruled in Hebron over the house of Judah was seven years and six months.
Tsawon lokacin da Dawuda ya yi mulki a Hebron a kan gidan Yahuda, shekara bakwai ne da wata shida.
12 Abner the son of Ner, and the servants of Ishbaal the son of Saul, went out from Mahanaim to Gibeon.
Abner ɗan Ner, tare da mutanen Ish-Boshet ɗan Shawulu, suka bar Mahanayim suka tafi Gibeyon.
13 Joab the son of Zeruiah, and the servants of David, went out, and met them by the pool of Gibeon; and they sat down, the one on the one side of the pool, and the other on the other side of the pool.
Yowab wanda ake ce mamarsa Zeruhiya tare da waɗansu mutanen Dawuda suka fito suka haɗu da su tafkin Gibeyon, Suka zauna, waɗannan a wannan gefe, waɗancan a wancan gefe.
14 Abner said to Joab, "Let the young men now arise and compete before us." Joab said, "Let them arise."
Sa’an nan Abner ya ce wa Yowab, “Bari mu bar waɗansu samari su tashi su yi faɗa hannu da hannu a gabanmu.” Yowab ya ce, “To, su tashi.”
15 Then they arose and went over by number: twelve of the sons of Benjamin of Ishbaal the son of Saul, and twelve of the servants of David.
Saboda haka samarin suka tashi aka ƙidaya su, mutum sha biyu wajen Benyamin da Ish-Boshet ɗan Shawulu, sha biyu kuma wajen Dawuda.
16 They each caught his opponent by the head, and thrust his sword in his fellow's side; so they fell down together. Therefore that place was called Field of Blades, which is in Gibeon.
Sa’an nan kowannensu ya kama abokin gābansa a kā ya soki da wuƙa a jiki, sai duka suka fāɗi a ƙasa. Saboda haka ne ake kiran wannan wuri Helkat Hazzurim a Gibeyon.
17 The battle was very severe that day, and Abner and the men of Israel were defeated before the servants of David.
Faɗan ya yi zafi a ranar ƙwarai, mutanen Dawuda suka ci mutanen Abner da na Isra’ila.
18 The three sons of Zeruiah were there, Joab, and Abishai, and Asahel. And Asahel was as quick on his feet as a wild gazelle.
’Ya’yan Zeruhiya, maza uku sun kasance a can. Su ne, Yowab, Abishai da Asahel. To, Asahel mai gudu ne kamar barewa.
19 Asahel pursued after Abner, and as he went he did not turn to the right hand nor to the left from following Abner.
Ya fafari Abner, bai juya dama ko hagu ba, yayinda yake fafararsa.
20 Then Abner looked behind him, and said, "Is it you, Asahel?" He answered, "It is I."
Abner ya waiga, sai ya ce, “Kai ne, Asahel?” Ya ce, “Ni ne.”
21 Abner said to him, "Turn aside to your right hand or to your left, and grab one of the young men, and take his armor." But Asahel would not stop from pursuing him.
Sai Abner ya ce masa, “Yi dama ko hagu ka runtumi ɗaya daga cikin samarin, ka ƙwace makamansa.” Amma Asahel bai bar fafararsa ba.
22 Abner said again to Asahel, "Stop pursuing me. Why should I strike you to the ground? How then should I hold up my face to Joab your brother?"
Abner ya sāke gargaɗe shi ya ce, “Ka bar fafarata! Yaya zan kashe ka? Yaya zan yin ido biyu da ɗan’uwanka Yowab?”
23 But he refused to stop. Therefore Abner with the back end of the spear struck him in the body, so that the spear came out behind him; and he fell down there, and died in the same place. And it came about that all who came to the place where Asahel had fallen and died, stopped there.
Amma Asahel ya ƙi yă bar fafararsa; saboda haka Abner ya soki Asahel da māshinsa a ciki; har māshin ya fita ta bayansa. Nan take ya fāɗi, ya mutu. Kowa da ya zo wurin da Asahel ya fāɗi, ya mutu, sai yă tsaya.
24 But Joab and Abishai pursued after Abner: and the sun went down when they had come to the hill of Ammah, that lies before Giah by the way of the wilderness of Gibeon.
Amma Yowab da Abishai suka fafari Abner, kuma da rana tana fāɗuwa sai suka iso tudun Amma, kusa da Giya, a hanyar zuwa jejin Gibeyon.
25 The sons of Benjamin gathered themselves together after Abner, and formed a single group, and stood on the top of a hill.
Sa’an nan mutanen Benyamin suka haɗa kansu suka koyi bayan Abner. Suka zama ƙungiya guda, suka tsaya daram a kan tudu.
26 Then Abner called to Joab, and said, "Shall the sword devour forever? Do you not know that it will be bitterness in the latter end? How long shall it be then, before you ask the people to stop pursuing their brothers?"
Sai Abner ya kira Yowab ya ce, har abada ne māshi zai yi ta hallakarwa? Ba ka sani cewa ƙarshen zai zama da ɗaci ba. Sai yaushe za ka umarci mutanenka su daina fafaran’yan’uwansu?
27 Joab said, "As Jehovah lives, if you had not spoken, surely the people would not have given up the pursuit of their brothers until the morning."
Yowab ya ce, “Muddin Allah yana a raye, da ba a ce ka yi magana ba, da mutanen za su ci gaba da fafaran’yan’uwansu har gari yă waye.”
28 So Joab blew the trumpet; and all the people stopped, and no longer chased after Israel, and they no longer fought.
Sai Yowab ya busa ƙaho, dukan mutane kuwa suka tsaya; suka daina fafaran Isra’ila. Nan take faɗan ya tsaya.
29 Abner and his men went all that night through the Arabah; and they passed over the Jordan, and marched the whole morning, and came to Mahanaim.
Abner da mutanensa suka ratsa kwarin Urdun dukan dare. Sa’an nan suka haye kogin, suka kuwa ci gaba dukan safe har suka zo Mahanayim.
30 Joab returned from pursuing Abner. And when he had gathered all the people together, there were missing from David's servants nineteen men and Asahel.
Da Yowab ya dawo daga fafaran Abner, sai ya tattara dukan mutanensa. Ban da Asahel, sai ya gane an rasa mutum goma sha tara na Dawuda.
31 But the servants of David had struck of the people of Benjamin, from the men of Abner, three hundred and sixty men who died.
Amma mutanen Dawuda sun kashe mutum ɗari uku da sittin daga kabilar Benyamin da suke tare da Abner.
32 They took up Asahel, and buried him in the tomb of his father, which was in Bethlehem. Joab and his men went all night, and the day broke on them at Hebron.
Suka ɗauki gawar Asahel suka binne a kabarin mahaifinsa a Betlehem. Sa’an nan Yowab da mutanensa suka bi dare har suka iso Hebron da safe.
