1 Samuel 14
1 And it came about, on a certain day, that Jonathan son of Saul said unto the young man bearing his armour: Come! and let us pass over unto the garrison of the Philistines, that is on the other side, yonder! but, to his father, he told it not.
Wata rana Yonatan ɗan Shawulu ya ce wa saurayin da yake ɗaukar masa makamai, “Zo mu tafi wajen sansanin Filistiyawa a wancan hayi.” Amma bai gaya wa mahaifinsa ba.
2 Now, Saul, was tarrying in the uttermost part of Gibeah, under the pomegranate tree that is in Migron, —and, the people that were with him, were about six hundred men;
Shawulu kuwa na zaune a gindin itacen rumman a bayan garin Gibeya a Migron. Tare da shi akwai mutum wajen ɗari shida.
3 and, Ahijah, son of Ahitub, brother of Ichabod, son of Phinehas, son of Eli, was priest of Yahweh in Shiloh, wearing an ephod, —and, the people, knew not that Jonathan had departed.
A cikinsu akwai Ahiya sanye da efod. Shi yaron Ikabod ɗan’uwan Ahitub ne, ɗan Finehas, ɗan Eli, firist na Ubangiji a Shilo. Ba wanda ya san cewa Yonatan ya tafi wani wuri.
4 And, between the passes by which Jonathan sought to cross over up to the garrison of the Philistines, there was a crag of rock on the one side, and a crag of rock on the other side; and, the name of the one, was Bozez, and the name of the other, Seneh.
A kowane gefe na mashigin da Yonatan ya so yă bi zuwa wurin Filistiyawa, akwai hawa mai tsawo, ana kira ɗaya Bozez, ɗayan kuma ana kira Senet.
5 The one crag, was a pillar on the north, over against Michmash, —and, the other, on the south, over against Geba.
Hawan da yake arewa yana fuskantar Mikmash, wanda yake kudu kuma yana fuskantar Geba.
6 So Jonathan said unto the young man bearing his armour—Come! and let us cross over unto the garrison of these uncircumcised, peradventure, Yahweh may work by us, —for there is no restraint with Yahweh, to save by many, or by few.
Yonatan ya ce wa saurayin mai ɗaukan makamai, “Zo mu haye zuwa mashigin mutane marasa kaciyan nan, wataƙila Ubangiji zai yi aiki a madadinmu. Ba abin da zai iya hana Ubangiji yin aikin ceto ta wurin mutane masu yawa, ko ta wurin mutane kaɗan.”
7 And his armour-bearer said to him, Do all that is in thy heart, —decide for thyself (lo! I am with thee!), according to thine own heart.
Mai ɗaukan makaman ya ce, “Ka yi duk abin da yake zuciyarka. Ci gaba, ina tare da kai gaba da baya.”
8 Then said Jonathan, Lo! we, are crossing over unto the men, —and will discover ourselves unto them.
Yonatan ya ce, “To, zo mu haye zuwa wajen mutanen, mu sa su gan mu.
9 If, thus, they say unto us, Keep quiet until we get to you, then will we stand still where we are, and will not go up unto them;
In suka ce mana, ‘Ku tsaya nan har mu zo wurinku,’ za mu dakata inda muke, ba za mu haura wajensu ba.
10 but, if thus, they say, Come up unto us, then will we go up; for Yahweh hath delivered them into our hand, —This, then, is our sign.
Amma in suka ce mana, ‘Ku haura wurinmu,’ to, sai mu haura, wannan zai zama mana alama cewa Ubangiji ya bashe su a hannunmu.”
11 So they two discovered themselves unto the garrison of the Philistines, —and the Philistines said—Lo! Hebrews, coming forth out of the holes, wherein they had hidden themselves.
Sai suka nuna kansu a sansanin Filistiyawa. Sai Filistiyawa suka ce, “Ku duba ga Ibraniyawa suna fitowa daga cikin ramummuka inda suka ɓuya.”
12 And the men of the garrison responded to Jonathan and his armour-bearer, and said—Come up unto us, and we will let you know a thing. Then said Jonathan unto his armour-bearer—Come up after me, for Yahweh hath delivered them into the hand of Israel.
Mutanen da suke sansanin suka kira Yonatan da mai ɗaukan makamansa da babbar murya suka ce, “Ku hauro wajenmu, mu kuwa za mu koya muku hankali.” Sai Yonatan ya ce wa mai ɗaukan makamansa, “Biyo ni, gama Ubangiji ya bashe su a hannun Isra’ila.”
13 So Jonathan went up on his hands and on his feet, and, his armour-bearer, followed him, —and they fell before Jonathan, and, his armour-bearer, was slaying after him.
Sai Yonatan ya hau dutsen da rarrafe, mai ɗaukan makamansa kuwa yana biye. Yonatan ya yi ta fyaɗa Filistiyawa da ƙasa, mai ɗaukan makamansa kuma ya yi ta karkashe su.
14 And the first smiting wherewith Jonathan and his armour-bearer smote, was about twenty men, —within, as it were, half a furrow’s length of a yoke of land.
A wannan karo na farko Yonatan da mai ɗaukan makamansa suka kashe mutum wajen ashirin a wani fili mai fāɗi rabin kadada.
15 And there came to be a trembling in the camp, in the field, and among all the people, the outposts and the spoilers, they too, trembled, —and the earth quaked, so it became a preternatural trembling.
Sai tsoro ya kama dukan sojojin Filistiyawa, waɗanda suke cikin sansanin da waɗanda suke fili, har da waɗanda suke waje, da kuma waɗanda suke kai hari, ƙasa ta girgiza. Allah ne ya kawo wannan rikicewa.
16 And the scouts of Saul in Gibeah of Benjamin looked, and lo! the camp, melted away, hither and thither.
Masu gadin Shawulu a Gebiya da take a Benyamin suka duba sai ga rundunar Filistiyawa a warwatsewa ko’ina.
17 Then said Saul unto the people who were with him: Number, I pray you, and see who hath departed from us. So they numbered; and lo! Jonathan and his armour-bearer were missing.
Sai Shawulu ya ce wa mutanen da suke tare da shi, “Ku ƙidaya mayaƙa ku ga wane ne ba ya nan.” Da suka ƙirga sai suka tarar Yonatan da mai ɗaukan makamansa ba sa nan.
18 Then said Saul unto Ahijah, Bring near the ark of God; for the ark of God was, on that day, in the midst of the sons of Israel.
Shawulu ya ce wa Ahiya, “Kawo akwatin alkawarin Allah.” (A lokacin akwatin alkawarin yana tare da Isra’ilawa.)
19 And it came to pass, as soon as Saul had spoken unto the priest, that, the tumultuous noise that was in the camp of the Philistines, went on and on, increasing. Then said Saul unto the priest, —Withdraw thy hand.
Yayinda Shawulu yake magana da firist kuwa, harguwa ya yi ta ƙaruwa a sansanin Filistiyawa. Sai Shawulu ya ce wa firist, “Janye hannunka.”
20 And Saul and all the people that were with him gathered themselves together, and came as far as the host, —and lo! the sword of every man was against his fellow, an exceeding great confusion.
Sa’an nan Shawulu da dukan mutanensa suka taru suka tafi yaƙi. Suka tarar Filistiyawa sun ruɗe suna yaƙi da juna da takubansu.
21 And, the Hebrews who had aforetime belonged to the Philistines, who had come up with them in the host, even they, turned round so as to be with Israel who were with Saul and Jonathan.
Ibraniyawan da suke tare da Filistiyawa a dā, waɗanda suka bi Filistiyawan zuwa sansanin yaƙinsu, suka juya, suka goyi bayan Shawulu da Yonatan sa’ad da yaƙin ya taso.
22 And, all the men of Israel who had hidden themselves throughout the hill country of Ephraim, heard that the Philistines had fled, and, they also, followed hard after them in the battle.
Sa’ad da dukan Isra’ilawan da suka ɓuya a duwatsu a ƙasar Efraim suka ji labari cewa Filistiyawa suna gudu, sai suka fito suka fafare su.
23 Thus did Yahweh, on that day, save Israel, —and, the battle, passed over by Beth-aven.
Haka Ubangiji ya kuɓutar da Isra’ila a wannan rana. Yaƙin kuwa ya ci gaba har gaba da Bet-Awen.
24 Now, the men of Israel, were tired out on that day, —yet had Saul bound the people by an oath, saying—Cursed, be the man that eateth food until the evening, and I be avenged upon mine enemies. So none of the people had tasted food.
A wannan rana, Isra’ilawa suka sha wahala ƙwarai domin Shawulu ya sa mutane suka yi rantsuwa cewa, “La’ananne ne mutumin da ya ci abinci kafin fāɗuwar rana, kafin in ɗauki fansa a kan abokan gābana.” Don haka ba mutumin da ya ɗanɗana abinci.
25 And, all the land, had entered into the forest, —and there was honey upon the face of the ground.
Dukan rundunar ta shiga kurmi, sai ga zuma a ƙasa.
26 So the people came into the forest, and lo! there were streams of honey, —but no man reached his hand to his mouth, because the people revered the oath.
Da suka shiga ciki kurmin, suka ga zuma tana zubowa, duk da haka ba wanda ya sa yatsansa ya lasa saboda tsoron rantsuwar da suka yi.
27 But, Jonathan, heard not his father putting the people on oath, so he reached forth the end of the staff that was in his hand, and dipped it in the honey-copse, —and brought back his hand to his mouth, and his eyes were brightened.
Yonatan bai san cewa mahaifinsa ya sa mutane suka yi rantsuwa ba. Sai ya sa gindin sandan da yake hannunsa a saƙar zuma, ya kai bakinsa. Nan da nan sai ya ji ƙarfin jiki ya zo masa.
28 Then responded one from among the people, and said—With an oath, did thy father charge the people, saying—Cursed, be the man that eateth food to-day! And so the people were faint.
Sai wani soja ya gaya masa cewa, “Mahaifinka ya sa kowa ya yi rantsuwa cewa, ‘La’ananne ne mutumin da ya ci abinci kafin fāɗuwar rana!’ Shi ya sa duk sojojin ba su da ƙarfi.”
29 Then said Jonathan: My father hath afflicted the land, —See, I pray you, how my own eyes have been brightened, because I tasted a little of this honey.
Yonatan ya ce, “Mahaifina ya jefa ƙasar cikin matsala. Duba yadda na ji ƙarfin jiki sa’ad da na ɗanɗana wannan’yar zuma mana.
30 How much more if haply the people had, eaten freely, to-day of the spoil of their enemies, which they found? for, now, would not the smiting of the Philistines have been, mighty?
Da yaya zai kasance ke nan da a ce an bar sojoji suka ci abincin da suka ƙwace daga abokan gābansu? Ai, da gawawwakin Filistiyawan da aka kashe sun fi haka.”
31 Howbeit they smote the Philistines on that day from Michmash to Aijalon, —but the people became exceeding faint.
A ranan nan Isra’ilawa suka yi ta kashe Filistiyawa daga Mikmash har zuwa Aiyalon. Bayan haka gajiya ta kama su sosai saboda yunwa.
32 And the people darted greedily upon the spoil, and took sheep, and oxen, and calves, and felled them to the ground, —and the people did eat, with the blood.
Sai suka yi warwason ganima, suka kwashe tumaki, da shanu, da maruƙa, suka yayyanka su, suka ci naman ɗanye.
33 And they told Saul, saying, Lo! the people, are sinning against Yahweh, by eating with the blood. And he said—Ye have dealt treacherously, roll unto me, here, a great stone.
Sai wani mutum ya ce wa Shawulu, “Duba, ga mutane suna zunubi ga Ubangiji, suna cin nama da jini.” Shawulu ya ce, “Kun ci amana. Ku mirgino babban dutse zuwa wurina nan da nan.”
34 And Saul said—Disperse yourselves among the people, and say unto them—Bring near unto me every man his ox, and every man his lamb, and slay them here, and then eat, so shall ye not sin against Yahweh, by eating with the blood. And all the people brought near—every man that which was in his hand, that night, and they slew them there.
Sa’an nan ya ce, “Ku tafi ku faɗa wa jama’a duka, su kawo shanu da tumaki a nan, su yayyanka, su ci a nan, don kada su yi wa Ubangiji zunubi da cin nama ɗanye.” Haka nan kowa ya kawo saniyarsa a daren, ya yanka a can.
35 And Saul built an altar unto Yahweh, —the same, was the first altar that he built unto Yahweh.
Sa’an nan Shawulu ya gina wa Ubangiji bagade. Wannan ne bagade na farkon da ya gina.
36 Then said Saul—Let us go down after the Philistines by night, and make of them a prey until the morning light, and let us not leave of them, a man. And they said, All that is good in thine eyes, do! Then said the priest, Let us draw near hither unto God.
Shawulu ya ce, “Mu bi gangara mu fafare Filistiyawa da dare mu washe su har gari yă waye, mu kuma karkashe kowannensu, kada mu bar wani da rai.” Suka ce, “Ka yi duk abin da ka ga ya fi maka kyau.” Amma firist ya ce, “Bari mu nemi nufin Allah tukuna.”
37 So Saul asked of God, Shall I go down after the Philistines? wilt thou deliver them into the hand of Israel? But he answered him not, that day.
Saboda haka Shawulu ya tambayi Allah ya ce, “Mu bi bayan Filistiyawa? Za ka bashe su a hannun Isra’ila?” Amma Allah bai ba shi amsa a ranar ba.
38 Then said Saul, Come near hither, all ye chiefs of the people, —and get to know and see, wherein, hath been this sin, to-day.
Saboda haka Shawulu ya ce, “Ku zo nan dukanku shugabannin rundunoni, mu bincika mu san zunubin da ya kawo rashin amsan nan yau.
39 For, by the life of Yahweh, who saveth Israel, though it be in Jonathan my son, yet shall he, die. But there was none ready to answer him, of all the people.
Muddin Ubangiji wanda ya ceci Isra’ila yana raye, ko da ɗana Yonatan ne ya yi zunubin, dole yă mutu.” Amma ba ko ɗaya daga cikinsu da ya ce uffam.
40 Then said he unto all Israel—Ye, shall be on one side, and, I and Jonathan my son, will be on the other side. And the people said unto Saul, What is good in thine eyes, do!
Sai Shawulu ya ce wa dukan Isra’ilawa, “Ku tsaya a can, ni kuma da Yonatan ɗana mu tsaya a nan.” Mutanen suka ce, “Ka yi abin da ya fi maka kyau.”
41 And Saul said unto Yahweh—O God of Israel! now set forth the truth. Then were, Jonathan and Saul, taken, and, the people, escaped.
Sa’an nan Shawulu ya yi addu’a ga Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila ya ce, “Me ya sa ba ka amsa mini addu’ata a yau ba? Idan wannan laifina ne, ko kuwa na ɗana, Yonatan, ka nuna mana ta wurin Urim, amma idan laifin mutanen ne ka amsa ta wurin Tummim.” Ba a sami mutane da laifi ba, amma ƙuri’a ta fāɗa a kan Yonatan da Shawulu.
42 And Saul said, Cast lots between me, and Jonathan my son. Then was, Jonathan, taken.
Shawulu ya ce, “Ku jefa ƙuri’a tsakanina da ɗana Yonatan.” Sai ƙuri’ar ta fāɗa a kan Yonatan.
43 And Saul said unto Jonathan, Come tell me, what thou hast done. So Jonathan told him, and said, I, just tasted, with the end of the staff that was in my hand, a little honey, here I am—I must die!
Sai Shawulu ya ce wa Yonatan, “Gaya mini mene ne ka yi.” Yonatan ya ce masa, “Na ɗanɗana zuma kaɗan daga gindin sandanta. Yanzu kuwa dole in mutu!”
44 Then said Saul: So, may God do, and, so, may he add, surely thou must, die, Jonathan!
Shawulu ya ce, “Bari hukunci mai tsanani na Allah yă kasance a kaina, in ba ka mutu ba, Yonatan.”
45 But the people said unto Saul—Shall, Jonathan, die, who hath wrought this great salvation in Israel? Far be it! By the life of Yahweh, there shall not fall a hair of his head to the ground, for, with God, hath he wrought this day. So the people delivered Jonathan, that he died not.
Amma mutane suka ce wa Shawulu, “A ce Yonatan yă mutu bayan shi ya kawo babban nasara a Isra’ila? Faufau, muddin Ubangiji yana raye, ko gashin kansa ɗaya ba zai fāɗi a ƙasa ba, gama abin da ya yi yau, Allah ne yana tare da shi.” Ta haka mutane suka ceci Yonatan daga mutuwa.
46 Then Saul went up from following the Philistines, —and, the Philistines, departed unto their own place.
Sai Shawulu ya daina bin Filistiyawa, suka koma ƙasarsu.
47 And, Saul, took possession of the kingdom over Israel, —and made war round about against all his enemies—against Moab, and against the sons of Ammon, and against Edom, and against the kings of Zobah, and against the Philistines, and, whomsoever he turned against, he was victorious.
Bayan Shawulu ya hau karagar mulkin Isra’ila, ya yi yaƙi da abokan gābansu ta kowane gefe. Mowabawa, Ammonawa, mutanen Edom, sarakunan Zoba, da kuma Filistiyawa. Duk wurin da ya juya, ya hore su.
48 Then made he ready a force, and smote the Amalekites, —and delivered Israel out of the hand of such as plundered them.
Ya yi jaruntaka sosai, ya ci Amalekawa da yaƙi, ya kuma ceci Isra’ila daga hannuwan waɗanda suka ƙwace musu kaya.
49 And the sons of Saul were Jonathan, and Ishvi, and Malchishua, —and, the names of his two daughters, were, the name of the firstborn, Merab, and, the name of the younger, Michal, —
’Ya’yan Shawulu maza su ne, Yonatan, Ishbi, da Malki-Shuwa. Sunan babban’yarsa ita ce Merab, ƙaramar kuma Mikal.
50 and, the name of Saul’s wife, was Ahinoam, daughter of Ahimaaz, —and the name of the prince of his host, Abner, son of Ner, Saul’s uncle.
Sunan matarsa kuwa Ahinowam,’yar Ahimawaz. Sunan shugaban ƙungiyar sojan Shawulu kuwa Abner ne ɗan Ner, shi Ner kuwa ɗan’uwan mahaifin Shawulu ne.
51 And, Kish, was Saul’s father, and, Ner, Abner’s father, was son of Abiel.
Mahaifin Shawulu, Kish da kuma Ner mahaifin Abner,’ya’yan Abiyel ne.
52 And the war was severe against the Philistines all the days of Saul, —and, whensoever Saul saw any mighty man, or any son of valour, he drew him unto himself.
Dukan kwanakin Shawulu sun kasance na yaƙe-yaƙe da Filistiyawa ne. Duk lokacin da Shawulu ya ga ƙaƙƙarfan mutum ko jarumi, sai yă ɗauke shi aikin sojansa.
