1 Samuel 21
1 Then came David to Nob, unto Ahimelech, the priest, —and Ahimelech trembled when he met David, and said unto him—Why art thou, alone, and, no man, with thee?
Dawuda ya tafi Nob a wurin Ahimelek firist. Da Ahimelek ya gan shi sai ya firgita ya ce, “Me ya sa kai kaɗai ne? Me ya sa ba wani tare da kai?”
2 And David said unto Ahimelech the priest—The king, hath charged me with a matter, and hath said unto me—Let, no man, know aught of the business on which I am sending thee, and with which I have charged thee, —But, unto the young men, have I appointed, such and such a place.
Dawuda ya ce wa Ahimelek firist, “Na zo aikin sarki ne, ya kuwa ce kada in sanar wa kowa abin da ya sa in yi. Na faɗa wa mutanena inda za su same ni.
3 Now, therefore, what is there under thy hand? Five loaves, give thou into my hand, —or, whatever can be found.
Yanzu, me kake da shi a hannu? Ka ba ni burodi guda biyar, ko wani abu da kake da shi a nan.”
4 And the priest answered David, and said, There is no common bread under my hand, —but, hallowed bread, there is, if the young men have kept themselves, at least from women.
Amma firist ya ce wa Dawuda, “Ba ni da burodi iri na kowa da kowa, sai dai akwai burodin da aka tsarkake. Za ka iya ɗauka ku ci idan mutanenka ba su kwana da mata ba.”
5 And David answered the priest and said to him—Of a truth, women, have been withheld from us, of late, through my coming out, and the wallets of the young men have become hallowed, —while [the bread], itself, is in a manner common, and the more so since, to-day, [there are other loaves] to be hallowed, in the vessel.
Dawuda ya ce, “Lalle ne a keɓe muke daga mata. Mutanena sukan keɓe kansu a koyaushe suka tashi’yar tafiya, balle fa a yau!”
6 So the priest gave him hallowed [bread], —because there was there no bread, save the Presence-Bread, which had to be removed from before Yahweh, to put hot bread, on the day when it should be taken away.
Don haka firist ya ba shi keɓaɓɓen burodi, tun da yake babu wani burodi a can sai dai burodin Kasancewa da aka cire daga gaban Ubangiji, aka sa burodi mai zafi a maimakon wanda aka cire a ranar.
7 Now, in that very place, was a man of the servants of Saul, on that day, detained before Yahweh, whose name, was Doeg the Edomite, —chief of the shepherds that belonged unto Saul.
A ranar kuwa, ɗaya daga cikin bayin Shawulu yana can, a tsare a gaban Ubangiji, sunansa Doyeg, mutumin Edom, shugaban makiyayan Shawulu.
8 Then said David to Ahimelech, See whether there is here, under thy hand, a spear or a sword? for, neither my sword, nor my other weapons, did I take in my hand, for, the king’s business, was, urgent.
Dawuda ya ce wa Ahimelek, “Ba ka da māshi ko takobi a nan? Ban kawo māshina ko wani makami ba gama saƙon sarki ya zo mini da gaggawa.”
9 And the priest said: The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom thou didst smite in the vale of Elah, lo! that, is wrapped up in a cloth, behind the ephod, if, that, thou wilt take to thee, take it, for there is no other, save that, here. And David said—There is none, like it, give it me.
Sai firist ya ce, “Takobin Goliyat Bafilistin nan wanda ka kashe a Kwarin Ela yana nan. An naɗe shi da ƙyallen aka ajiye a bayan Efod, in kana so, sai ka ɗauka. Ba wani takobi kuma sai wancan.” Dawuda ya ce, “Ba ni shi, ai, ba wani kamar sa.”
10 Then arose David, and fled, that day, from the face of Saul, —and came in unto Achish, king of Gath.
A ranar, Dawuda ya gudu daga wajen Shawulu ya tafi wuri Akish sarkin Gat.
11 And the servants of Achish said unto him, Is not, this, David, king of the land? Was it not, of this man, that they kept responding in the dances, saying, Saul, hath smitten his, thousands, but, David, his, tens of thousands?
Amma bayin Akish suka ce masa, “Wannan ba shi ne Dawuda sarkin ƙasar ba? Ashe, ba shi ne aka yi ta yin waƙoƙi a kansa, ana raye-raye, ana cewa, “Shawulu ya kashe dubbai, Dawuda kuwa ya kashe dubun dubbai?”
12 And David laid up these words in his heart, —and feared greatly, because of Achish king of Gath.
Dawuda ya riƙe waɗannan kalmomi a zuciyarsa, ya kuma ji tsoron Akish sarkin Gat sosai.
13 So he feigned himself mad, in their sight, and raged in their hand, —and struck against the doors of the gate, and let his spittle run down upon his beard.
Don haka sai ya yi kamar ya taɓu a gabansu. A duk lokacin da yake tare da su, sai yă yi kamar ya haukace. Ya yi ta zāne-zāne a ƙofofi, ya bar miyau yana ta bin gemunsa.
14 Then said Achish unto his servants, —Lo! ye can see, a madman playing his pranks, wherefore should ye bring him in, unto me?
Akish ya ce wa bayinsa, “Duba, wannan mutum yana hauka. Me ya sa kuka kawo shi a wurina?
15 Lacking of madmen, am I that ye should bring in this one to play his mad pranks, unto me? Shall, this, one enter my household?
Na rasa masu hauka ne da za ku kawo mini wannan mutum yă yi ta hauka a gabana? Dole ne wannan mutum yă shiga gidana?”
