2 Samuel 20
1 Now there happened to be a worthless man, whose name was Sheba, the son of Bikri, a Benjamite. And he blew the trumpet, and said, "We have no share in David, nor do we have any inheritance in the son of Jesse. Every man to his tents, Israel."
Akwai wani mai tā-da-na-zaune-tsaye, sunansa Sheba, ɗan Bikri, daga kabilar Benyamin, a wurin. Sai ya busa ƙaho, ya yi ihu ya ce, “Ba mu da rabo a wurin Dawuda, ba mu da sashe a wurin ɗan Yesse! Kowa yă nufi tentinsa, ya Isra’ila!”
2 So all Israel deserted David and followed Sheba the son of Bikri, but the men of Judah stayed by their king, from the Jordan to Jerusalem.
Saboda haka dukan mutane Isra’ila suka bar Dawuda don su bi Sheba ɗan Bikri. Amma mutanen Yahuda suka kasance a wurin sarki tun daga Urdun har zuwa Urushalima.
3 Then David came to his palace at Jerusalem, and the king took the ten women his secondary wives, whom he had left to keep the palace, and placed them under guard, and provided for them, but did not go in to them. So they were kept in confinement until the day of their death, living as widows.
Da Dawuda ya komo fadarsa a Urushalima, sai ya ɗauko ƙwarƙwaran goma nan da ya bari su lura da fada, ya keɓe su a wani gida inda za a yi tsaronsu. Ya tanada musu, amma bai kwana da su ba. Aka sa su a keɓe har iyakar rayuwarsu, suka yi zama kamar gwauraye.
4 Then the king said to Amasa, "Summon the men of Judah to me within three days, and be present here yourself."
Sa’an nan sarki ya ce wa Amasa, “Ka tattaro mutanen Yahuda su zo wurina cikin kwana uku, kai kuwa ka kasance a can kai kanka.”
5 So Amasa went to summon Judah together, but he delayed beyond the set time that had been allotted him.
Amma da Amasa ya tafi kiran mutanen Yahuda, ya ɗauki lokaci fiye da lokacin da sarki ya ba shi.
6 David said to Abishai, "Now Sheba the son of Bikri will do us more harm than Absalom did. Now then, take your lord's servants with you and pursue after him, otherwise he will get himself to fortified cities and escape from us."
Dawuda ya ce wa Abishai, “Ina gani Sheba ɗan Bikri zai ba mu wuya fiye da Absalom. Ka ɗauki mutanen maigidanka ka fafare shi, don kada yă sami garuruwa masu katanga yă tsere mana.”
7 So there went out after him Joab's men and the Cherethites and the Pelethites, and all the warriors. And they went out from Jerusalem to pursue Sheba son of Bikri.
Saboda haka mutanen Yowab da Keretawa da Feletiyawa da dukan jarumawa suka fita a ƙarƙashin Abishai. Suka fita daga Urushalima don su fafari Sheba ɗan Bikri.
8 When they were at the great stone that is in Gibeon, Amasa came to meet them. And Joab was wearing his military attire, and over it was a belt with a dagger in its sheath fastened at his waist, and as he advanced it fell out.
Yayinda suke a babban dutse a Gibeyon, Amasa ya zo don yă tarye su. Yowab kuwa yana sanye da doguwar rigar soja, a ɗamarar da ya sha kuwa akwai wuƙa a cikin kube. Da ya zo gaba sai wuƙar ta zāre daga kube ta fāɗi.
9 And Joab said to Amasa, "Is it well with you, my brother?" Then Joab took Amasa by the beard with his right hand to kiss him.
Yowab ya ce wa Amasa, “Yaya kake, ɗan’uwana?” Sai Yowab ya kama gemun Amasa da hannun dama don yă yi masa sumba.
10 But Amasa did not notice the sword that was in Joab's hand. And he stabbed him with it in the abdomen, so that his intestines spilled out on the ground, and he did not do it to him again. Thus he died. Then Joab and Abishai his brother pursued Sheba son of Bikri.
Amasa kuwa bai lura da wuƙar da take hannun Yowab ba, Yowab kuwa ya soke shi da wuƙar a ciki, hanjinsa suka zube ƙasa. Ba tare da ƙarin suƙa ba, Amasa ya mutu. Sa’an nan Yowab da ɗan’uwansa Abishai suka fafari Sheba ɗan Bikri.
11 And one of Joab's young men stood beside Amasa and said, "Whoever is the one that favors Joab and whoever belongs to David, follow Joab."
Ɗaya daga cikin mutanen Yowab ya tsaya kusa da Amasa ya ce, “Duk mai son Yowab, kuma duk mai son Dawuda, yă bi Yowab!”
12 But Amasa lay covered with his blood in the midst of the road, and anyone who came by, seeing him, stopped. So when the man saw that all the people stopped, he dragged Amasa from the road into a field and threw a garment over him.
Amasa kuwa yana kwance cikin tafkin jininsa a kan hanya, sai mutumin ya ga dukan sojoji suka zo suka tsaya cik a can. Da ya gane cewa duk wanda ya haura zuwa wurin Amasa sai ya tsaya, sai ya ja gawar Amasa daga hanyar ya kai can cikin wani fili ya rufe shi da zane.
13 When he was removed from the road, all the people followed Joab in pursuit of Sheba son of Bikri.
Bayan an ɗauke Amasa daga hanya, sai dukan mutane suka bi Yowab don fafaran Sheba ɗan Bikri.
14 He went through all the tribes of Israel to Abel of Beth Maacah, and all the Bikrites assembled and followed him.
Sheba ya bi ta dukan kabilan Isra’ila zuwa Abel da kuma ta dukan yankin Beriyawa, waɗanda suka taru suka bi shi.
15 And all the people who were with Joab came and besieged him in Abel of Beth Maacah. And they built a siege ramp against the city, and it stood against the rampart, and they were battering the wall so that it would collapse.
Sai dukan rundunonin da suke tare da Yowab suka zo suka yi wa Sheba kwanton ɓauna a Abel-Bet-Ma’aka. Suka tara ƙasa kewaye da jikin katangar birnin daidai da tsayinta. Sa’an nan waɗansu kuma suna ƙoƙarin rushe katangar.
16 Then a wise woman called out from the wall, "Listen, listen. Please tell Joab to come here so that I may speak to him.
Sai wata mata mai hikima ta yi kira daga ciki birnin ta ce, “Ku saurara! Ku saurara! Ku gaya wa Yowab yă zo nan ina so in yi magana da shi.”
17 So he approached her, and the woman said, "Are you Joab?" And he replied, "I am." Then she said, "Listen to the words of your servant." And he replied, "I'm listening."
Ya tafi wurinta, sai ta ce, “Kai ne Yowab?” Ya ce, “Ni ne”. Ta ce, “Ka ji abin da zan ce maka.” Ya ce, “Ina jinki.”
18 Then she said, "In the past they used to say, 'Let them inquire in Abel and in Dan whether
Ta ci gaba ta ce, “A dā can, akan ce, ‘Sami amsarka a Abel,’ shi ke nan an gama.
19 that which the faithful of Israel established has been carried out.' You seek to destroy a city that is a mother in Israel. Why do you want to swallow up the inheritance of the LORD?"
Mu ne masu salama da kuma amintattu na Isra’ila. Kana ƙoƙari ka hallaka birnin da yake uwa a Isra’ila. Don me kake so ka hallakar da gādon Ubangiji?”
20 Joab answered, "Far be it from me that I should swallow up or destroy.
Yowab ya ce, “Allah yă sawwaƙe! Allah yă sawwaƙe in hallaka, ko in lalace gādon Ubangiji.
21 That is not the case. But a man of the hill country of Ephraim, Sheba the son of Bikri, has rebelled against king David. Give up him alone and I will withdraw from the city." Then the woman said to Joab, "Look, his head will be thrown to you from the wall."
Ba haka ba ne batun. Wani mai suna Sheba ɗan Bikri ne, daga ƙasar tudun Efraim, ya tayar wa sarki, yana gāba da Dawuda. Ki ba mu wannan mutum, zan kuwa janye daga birnin.” Matar ta ce wa Yowab, “Za a jefa maka kansa daga katanga.”
22 Then she spoke to all the city with her wise advice, and they cut off the head of Sheba son of Bikri and threw it out to Joab. So he blew the trumpet, and they were dispersed from him, each returning to his home. And Joab went back to Jerusalem to the king.
Sa’an nan matar ta tafi wurin dukan mutane da shawararta mai hikima, sai suka datse kan Sheba ɗan Bikri suka jefa wa Yowab. Saboda haka sai ya busa ƙaho, mutanensa kuwa suka watse daga birnin, kowa ya koma gidansa. Yowab kuma ya koma wurin sarki a Urushalima.
23 Now Joab was in command of the entire army of Israel; and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada was in command of the Cherethites and in command of the Pelethites;
Yowab ne yake shugabancin dukan rundunoni; Benahiya ɗan Yehohiyada ne yake shugabancin Keretawa da Feletiyawa;
24 and Adoniram was in command of the forced labor; and Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud was recorder;
Adoniram kuwa shi ne shugaban aikin gandu; Yehoshafat ɗan Ahilud shi ne marubucin tarihi;
25 and Shisha was scribe; and Zadok and Abiathar were cohanim;
Shewa kuwa magatakarda; Zadok da Abiyatar su ne firistoci;
26 and also Ira the Jairite was David's cohen.
Ira mutumin Yayir kuwa shi ne firist na Dawuda.
