Joshua 24

1 Joshua gathered all the tribes of Israel to Shechem, and called for the elders of Israel, for their heads, for their judges, and for their officers; and they presented themselves before God.

Yoshuwa ya tattara dukan kabilan Isra’ila a Shekem. Ya aika a kira dattawa, shugabanni, alƙalai da manyan ma’aikatan Isra’ila, suka kai kansu gaban Allah.

2 Joshua said to all the people, "Thus says the LORD, the God of Israel, 'Your fathers lived of old time beyond the River, even Terah, the father of Abraham, and the father of Nahor: and they served other gods.

Yoshuwa ya ce wa dukan mutanen, “Ga abin da Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila ya ce, ‘Dā can, kakanninku, Tera mahaifin Ibrahim, da Nahor sun zauna a hayin Kogin Yuferites suka yi wa waɗansu alloli sujada.

3 I took your father Abraham from beyond the River, and led him throughout all the land of Canaan, and multiplied his descendants, and gave him Isaac.

Amma na ɗauki mahaifinku Ibrahim, daga ƙasar da take can a hayin Kogin Yuferites, na kawo shi ƙasar Kan’ana, na kuma ba shi’ya’ya masu yawa. Na ba shi Ishaku,

4 And I gave to Isaac Jacob and Esau. And I gave to Esau Mount Seir, to possess it. And Jacob and his children went down into Egypt, and became there a great and numerous and mighty nation, and the Egyptians afflicted them.

ga Ishaku kuwa na ba shi Yaƙub da Isuwa. Na ba Isuwa ƙasar kan tudu ta Seyir, amma Yaƙub da’ya’yansa maza suka gangara zuwa Masar.

5 And I sent Moses and Aaron, and I plagued Egypt, according to that which I did in its midst; and afterward I brought you out

“‘Sai na aiki Musa da Haruna, na aukar wa Masarawa annobai, ta wurin abin da na yi ne na fitar da ku.

6 from Egypt. And you came to the sea, and the Egyptians pursued after your fathers with chariots and with horsemen to the Red Sea.

Lokacin da na fitar da iyayenku daga Masar, suka zo teku, sai Masarawa suka fafare su da kekunan yaƙi da dawakai har zuwa Jan Teku.

7 When they cried out to the LORD, he put darkness between you and the Egyptians, and brought the sea on them, and covered them; and your eyes saw what I did in Egypt: and you lived in the wilderness many days.

Amma suka yi kuka ga Ubangiji don taimako, ya kuwa sa duhu ya raba tsakaninsu da Masarawa; ya sa teku ya rufe Masarawa. Kun gani da idanunku abin da na yi wa Masarawa, sa’an nan kuka zauna a jeji na tsawon lokaci.

8 I brought you into the land of the Amorites, that lived beyond the Jordan: and they fought with you; and I gave them into your hand. You possessed their land; and I destroyed them from before you.

“‘Na kawo ku ƙasar Amoriyawa waɗanda suke gabas da Urdun. Suka yi yaƙi da ku, amma na ba da su a hannunku, na hallaka su a gabanku, kuka kuma mallaki ƙasarsu.

9 Then Balak the son of Zippor, king of Moab, arose and fought against Israel. He sent and called Balaam the son of Beor to curse you;

Lokacin da Balak ɗan Ziffor, sarkin Mowab, ya yi shiri yă yaƙi Isra’ila, ya aiki Bala’am ɗan Beyor don yă la’anta ku.

10 but I would not listen to Balaam; therefore he blessed you still. So I delivered you out of his hand.

Amma ban saurari Bala’am ba, saboda haka sai ya ma sa muku albarka, na kuɓutar da ku daga hannunsa.

11 You went over the Jordan, and came to Jericho. The men of Jericho fought against you, the Amorite, the Perizzite, the Canaanite, the Hethite, the Girgashite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite; and I delivered them into your hand.

“‘Sai kuka ƙetare Urdun kuka isa Yeriko. Mutanen Yeriko suka yi faɗa da ku, kamar yadda Amoriyawa, Ferizziyawa, Kan’aniyawa, Hittiyawa, Girgashiyawa, Hiwiyawa, da Yebusiyawa suka yi, amma na ba da su a hannunku.

12 I sent the hornet before you, which drove them out from before you, even the two kings of the Amorites; not with your sword, nor with your bow.

Na aika rina ta kore su a idonku, haka kuma sarakunan Amoriyawan nan. Ba da takobinku ko bakanku ne kuka yi haka ba.

13 I gave you a land whereon you had not labored, and cities which you did not build, and you live in them. You eat of vineyards and olive groves which you did not plant.'

Na ba ku ƙasar da ba ku yi wata wahala kafin ku samu ba, na ba ku kuma biranen da ba ku gina ba; kuka kuma zauna a cikinsu, kuka ci daga’ya’yan itacensu da’ya’yan zaitun da ba ku ne kuka shuka ba.’

14 Now therefore fear the LORD, and serve him in sincerity and in truth. Put away the gods which your fathers served beyond the River and in Egypt, and serve the LORD.

“Yanzu, sai ku ji tsoron Ubangiji, ku bauta masa da dukan aminci. Ku zubar da allolin da kakanninku suka yi musu sujada a hayin Kogin Yuferites da kuma a Masar, ku bauta wa Ubangiji.

15 If it seems evil to you to serve the LORD, choose this day whom you will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you dwell. But as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD."

Amma in kuka ga ba za ku iya bauta wa Ubangiji ba, sai ku zaɓa yau wanda za ku bauta masa, ko allolin da kakanninku suka bauta musu a hayin Kogin Yuferites, ko kuma allolin Amoriyawa, waɗanda kuke zama a cikin ƙasarsu. Amma da ni da gidana, Ubangiji ne za mu bauta wa.”

16 The people answered, "Far be it from us that we should forsake the LORD, to serve other gods;

Sai mutanen suka amsa suka ce, “Allah ya kiyashe mu da rabuwa da Ubangiji Allahnmu, har a ce mu bauta wa waɗansu alloli!

17 for it is the LORD our God who brought us and our fathers up out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage, and who did those great signs in our sight, and preserved us in all the way in which we went, and among all the peoples through the midst of whom we passed.

Ubangiji Allahnmu ne da kansa ya fitar da iyayenmu daga Masar, daga ƙasar bauta, ya yi manyan abubuwan al’ajabi, a idanunmu. Ya kiyaye mu cikin dukan hanyar da muka bi, da cikin ƙasashen da muka ratsa;

18 The LORD drove out from before us all the peoples, even the Amorites who lived in the land. Therefore we also will serve the LORD; for he is our God."

Ubangiji kuwa ya kore mana dukan Amoriyawa, waɗanda suke zaune a ƙasar. Don haka mu ma za mu bauta wa Ubangiji, gama shi ne Allahnmu.”

19 Joshua said to the people, "You can't serve the LORD; for he is a holy God. He is a jealous God. He will not forgive your disobedience nor your sins.

Yoshuwa ya ce wa mutanen, “Ba za ku iya bauta wa Ubangiji ba gama shi Allah mai tsarki ne; mai kishi kuma. Ba zai gafarta muku zunubin tawaye ba.

20 If you forsake the LORD, and serve foreign gods, then he will turn and do you harm, and consume you, after he has done you good."

In kuka juya wa Ubangiji baya, kuka bauta wa waɗansu alloli, zai juya yă kawo muku bala’i, yă hallaka ku, yă kawo ƙarshenku.”

21 The people said to Joshua, "No; but we will serve the LORD."

Amma mutanen suka ce wa Yoshuwa, “Mu dai! Za mu bauta wa Ubangiji.”

22 Joshua said to the people, "You are witnesses against yourselves that you have chosen you the LORD, to serve him." They said, "We are witnesses."

Yoshuwa kuwa ya ce musu, “Ku ne shaidun kanku cewa kun zaɓi ku bauta wa Ubangiji.” Suka amsa suka ce, “I, mu ne shaidun kanmu.”

23 "Now therefore put away the foreign gods which are among you, and incline your heart to the LORD, the God of Israel."

Yoshuwa ya ce musu, “Yanzu sai ku zubar da allolin da suke cikinku, ku miƙa wa Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila zuciyarku.”

24 The people said to Joshua, "We will serve the LORD our God, and we will listen to his voice."

Mutanen kuma suka ce, “Za mu bauta wa Ubangiji Allahnmu, mu kuma yi masa biyayya.”

25 So Joshua made a covenant with the people that day, and made for them a statute and an ordinance in Shechem.

A wannan rana Yoshuwa ya yi alkawari saboda mutanen, kuma a can Shekem ya tsara musu ƙa’idodi da dokoki.

26 Joshua wrote these words in the book of the law of God; and he took a great stone, and set it up there under the oak that was by the sanctuary of the LORD.

Yoshuwa kuwa ya rubuta abubuwan nan a cikin Littafin Dokoki na Allah. Sa’an nan ya ɗauki babban dutse ya ajiye a ƙarƙashin itacen oak kusa da tsattsarkan wuri na Ubangiji.

27 Joshua said to all the people, "Look, this stone shall be a witness against us; for it has heard all the words of the LORD which he spoke to us. It shall be therefore a witness against you, lest you deny your God."

Ya ce wa duka mutanen, “Ku gani! Wannan dutse zai zama mana shaida, ya ji duk maganar da Ubangiji ya yi mana, zai zama muku shaida in ba ku yi wa Allahnku gaskiya ba.”

28 So Joshua sent the people away, every man to his inheritance.

Sai Yoshuwa ya sallami mutane, kowa ya tafi ƙasar da aka ba shi gādo.

29 It happened after these things, that Joshua the son of Nun, the servant of the LORD, died, being one hundred ten years old.

Bayan waɗannan abubuwa, Yoshuwa ɗan Nun, bawan Ubangiji, ya mutu yana da shekaru ɗari da goma.

30 They buried him in the border of his inheritance in Timnath Serah, which is in the hill country of Ephraim, on the north of the mountain of Gaash.

Suka kuma binne shi a ƙasarsa ta gādo, a Timnat Sera a ƙasar kan tudu ta Efraim, arewa da Dutsen Ga’ash.

31 Israel served the LORD all the days of Joshua, and all the days of the elders who outlived Joshua, and had known all the work of the LORD, that he had worked for Israel.

Isra’ilawa kuwa sun bauta wa Ubangiji dukan kwanakin Yoshuwa, da kuma kwanakin dattawan da ya bari, da waɗanda suka ga duk abin da Ubangiji ya yi wa Isra’ila.

32 They buried the bones of Joseph, which the children of Israel brought up out of Egypt, in Shechem, in the parcel of ground which Jacob bought of the sons of Hamor the father of Shechem for a hundred kesitahs. They became the inheritance of the descendants of Joseph.

Aka kuma binne ƙasusuwan Yusuf da aka kawo daga Masar, a Shekem a wurin da Yaƙub ya saya da azurfa ɗari daga’ya’yan Hamor, babban Shekem. Wurin ya zama gādon zuriyar Yusuf.

33 Eleazar the son of Aaron died. They buried him in the hill of Phinehas his son, which was given him in the hill country of Ephraim.

Eleyazar ɗan Haruna, ya mutu aka binne shi a Gibeya, wurin da aka ba ɗansa Finehas a ƙasar kan tudu ta Efraim.
