1 Samuel 26
1 And the Ziphites came unto Saul in Gibeah, saying, —Is not David hiding himself in the hill of Hachilah, overlooking Jeshimon?
Zifawa suka je wurin Shawulu a Gibeya suka ce, “Ashe, ba Dawuda ne ya ɓuya a tudun Hakila da yake fuskantar Yeshimon ba?”
2 Then Saul arose, and went down into the wilderness of Ziph, and, with him, three thousand chosen men of Israel, —to seek David in the wilderness of Ziph.
Sai Shawulu ya tashi ya gangara zuwa Jejin Zif, tare da zaɓaɓɓun mutane dubu uku na Isra’ila. Suka fita neman Dawuda a can.
3 And Saul encamped in the hill of Hachilah, which overlooketh Jeshimon, by the way, —but, David, was staying in the wilderness, so he saw that Saul was coming after him into the wilderness.
Shawulu ya yi sansani a bakin hanyar zuwa tudun Hakila mai fuskantar Yeshimon. Amma Dawuda yana zaune a jeji. Sa’ad da ya ga Shawulu ya biyo shi har zuwa can,
4 David therefore sent runners, —and took knowledge that Saul had come, for a certainty.
sai ya aiki’yan leƙen asiri su tabbata lalle Shawulu ya iso can.
5 So then David arose, and came to the place where Saul had encamped, and David saw the place where Saul was lying, with Abner, son of Ner, prince of his host, —and, Saul, was lying within the circular trench, with, the people, encamped round about him.
Sai Dawuda ya kintsa ya tafi inda Shawulu ya yi sansani. Ya ga inda Shawulu da Abner ɗan Ner shugaban ƙungiyar soja suka kwanta. Shawulu yana kwance a cikin sansani tare da sojoji kewaye da shi.
6 And David responded, and said unto Ahimelech the Hittite, and unto Abishai son of Zeruiah, brother of Joab, saying, Who will go down with me unto Saul, within the camp? And Abishai said, I, will go down with thee.
Sai Dawuda ya ce wa Ahimelek mutumin Hitti da Abishai ɗan Zeruhiya ɗan’uwan Yowab, “Wa zai gangara tare da ni zuwa sansanin Shawulu?” Sai Abishai ya ce, “Zan tafi tare da kai.”
7 So David came, with Abishai, unto the people by night, and lo! Saul lying asleep, within the trench, and his spear stuck in the ground, at his head, —and Abner and the people lying round about him.
Saboda haka Dawuda da Abishai suka gangara zuwa wurin rundunar da dare, sai ga Shawulu kwance yana barci a cikin sansani da māshinsa a kafe a ƙasa kusa da kansa. Abner kuwa tare da sojoji suna kwance kewaye da shi.
8 Then said Abishai unto David, God hath surrendered, to-day, thine enemy, into thy hand: Now, therefore, let me smite him, I pray thee, with the spear to the earth, at one stroke, I, will not do it twice.
Abishai ya ce wa Dawuda, “Yau Allah ya ba da maƙiyinka a hannunka. Bari in kafe shi da ƙasa da māshina, zan soke shi da māshi sau ɗaya tak, ba na bukata in soke shi sau biyu.”
9 But David said unto Abishai, Do not destroy him, —for who that hath thrust forth his hand against the Anointed of Yahweh, shall be guiltless?
Amma Dawuda ya ce wa Abishai, “Kada ka hallaka shi. Wa zai sa hannu a kan shafaffe na Ubangiji, har yă tsira?
10 And David said—By the life of Yahweh, surely, Yahweh himself, must smite him, —or, his day, must come that he die, or, into battle, must he go down, and be swept away.
Muddin Ubangiji yana a raye, Ubangiji da kansa zai buge shi, ko yă mutu a lokacinsa, ko kuma yă mutu a wurin yaƙi.
11 Far be it from me, of Yahweh, that I should thrust forth my hand against the anointed of Yahweh! Now, therefore, take, I pray thee, the spear that is at his head, and the cruse of water, and let us go our way.
Amma Allah yă sawwaƙa in sa hannu a shafaffen Ubangiji, ka ɗauki māshin da butar ruwan da take kusa da kansa mu tafi.”
12 So David took the spear, and the cruse of water, from near the head of Saul, and they went their way, —and no man saw, and no man knew, and no man awoke, for all of them were sleeping, for, a deep sleep from Yahweh, had fallen upon them.
Saboda haka Dawuda ya ɗauki māshin da butar ruwan da take kusa da Shawulu suka tafi. Ba wanda ya gan su, ba wanda ya san abin da ya faru, ba kuwa wanda ya farka, dukansu suna barci gama Ubangiji ya sa barci mai nauyi ya ɗauke su.
13 Then David crossed over to the other side, and took his stand on the top of the mountain, afar off, —a great space, being between them.
Sa’an nan Dawuda ya haye zuwa wancan gefen kwarin, ya hau kan wani tudu mai ɗan nisa inda Shawulu tare da mutanensa suke. Akwai babban fili tsakaninsu.
14 And David cried aloud unto the people, and unto Abner son of Ner, saying, Wilt thou not answer, Abner? Then answered Abner, and said, Who art thou, that hast cried aloud unto the king?
Sai Dawuda ya kira sojojin Shawulu da kuma Abner ɗan Ner ya ce, “Abner ba za ka amsa mini ba?” Abner ya ce, “Wane ne yake kira yana damun sarki haka?”
15 And David said unto Abner—Art not thou, a man? Who indeed is like thee, in Israel? Wherefore, then, hast thou not kept watch over thy lord, the king? For one of the people hath entered, to destroy the king—thy lord.
Dawuda ya ce wa Abner, “Wane irin mutum ne kai? Ba kai ne soja mafi iya yaƙi a Isra’ila ba? Don me ba ka yi gadin ranka yă daɗe, sarki da kyau ba? Ɗazu wani ya shiga tsakiyarku don yă kashe ranka yă daɗe, sarki.
16 Not good, is this thing which thou hast done, by the life of Yahweh, verily, worthy of death, ye are, in that ye have not kept watch over your lord, over, the Anointed of Yahweh. Now, therefore, see where the spear of the king is, and the cruse of water, that was at his head?
Abin da ka yi bai yi kyau ba. Muddin Ubangiji yana a raye kai da mutanenka kun cancanci mutuwa, domin ba ku lura da maigidanku shafaffe na Ubangiji ba. Ka duba kewaye da kai, ina māshi da kuma butar ruwan da suke kusa da kansa?”
17 And Saul knew the voice of David, and said—Thy voice, is this, my son David? And David said, My voice, my lord O king!
Shawulu ya gane muryar Dawuda, sai ya ce, “Muryarka ke nan ɗana Dawuda?” Dawuda ya ce, “I, muryata ce ya ranka yă daɗe, sarki.”
18 And he said, Wherefore is it, that my lord is in pursuit of his servant? For what have I done? or what is in my hand that is wrong?
Ya ƙara da cewa, “Don me ranka yă daɗe, yake fafarata? Mene ne na yi? Wane abu ne aka same ni da laifi a kai?
19 Now, therefore, I pray thee, let my lord the king hear the words of his servant, —If, Yahweh, have goaded thee on against me, let him accept the sweet smell of a gift, but, if the sons of men, accursed, they are before Yahweh, for they have driven me out, to-day, from joining myself with the inheritance of Yahweh, saying—Go, serve other gods!
To, bari ranka yă daɗe, sarkina yă kasa kunne yă ji abin da zan faɗa. Idan Ubangiji ne ya sa ka yi fushi da ni, bari yă karɓi hadaya ta hatsi. Amma idan mutane ne suka sa ka, bari a la’anta su, Ubangiji ne shaidata. Gama sun kore ni don kada in sami rabo cikin gādon Ubangiji, suna cewa, ‘Ka je ka bauta wa waɗansu alloli.’
20 Now, therefore, let not my blood fall to the earth, away from the presence of Yahweh, —for the king of Israel hath come out to hunt for a single flea, as when one pursueth a partridge among the mountains.
Kada ka yarda jinina yă zuba a ƙasa nesa da gaban Ubangiji. Sarkin Isra’ila ya fito yă nemi kuɗin cizo kamar mai farautar kazan duwatsu.”
21 Then said Saul—I have sinned, Return, my son David, for I will harm thee no more, because my life was precious in thine eyes, this day, —lo! I have acted foolishly and, greatly, erred.
Sai Shawulu ya ce, “Na yi zunubi ka dawo Dawuda ɗana. Ba zan yi maka kome ba, domin ka darajarta raina yau. Lalle na yi wawanci! Na yi babban kuskure.”
22 And David responded, and said, Lo! the spear of the king! Let, therefore, one of the young men come over, and fetch it.
Dawuda ya ce, “Ga māshin sarki, ka aiko wani saurayi yă zo yă karɓa.
23 And let, Yahweh, give back to each man, his righteousness, and his faithfulness, —in that Yahweh delivered thee, to-day, into my hand, but I would not thrust forth my hand against the Anointed of Yahweh.
Ubangiji yakan sāka wa kowa bisa ga adalcinsa da amincinsa. Ubangiji ya bashe ka a hannuna yau, amma ba zan sa hannuna a kan shafaffe na Ubangiji ba.
24 Lo! then, as thy life was much set by this day in mine eyes, so, let my life be much set by in the eyes of Yahweh, and let him rescue me out of all tribulation.
Kamar yadda na ga darajar ranka yau. Haka ma bari Ubangiji yă ga darajar raina, yă cece ni daga dukan wahala.”
25 Then said Saul unto David—Blessed, be thou, my son David, thou shalt both, do, and shalt, prevail. And David went on his way, but, Saul, returned unto his own place.
Sai Shawulu ya ce wa Dawuda, “Allah yă albarkace ka ɗana, Dawuda, za ka yi manyan abubuwa, tabbatacce kuma ka yi nasara.” Sai Dawuda ya yi tafiyarsa, Shawulu kuwa ya koma gida.
