Joshua 22
1 Then, called Joshua—for the Reubenites, and for the Gadites, —and for the half tribe of Manasseh;
Yoshuwa ya kira mutanen Ruben, mutanen Gad, da rabin kabilar Manasse
2 and said unto them, Ye, have observed all that Moses the servant of Yahweh commanded you, —and have hearkened unto my voice, in all that I commanded you:
ya ce musu, “Kun yi duk abin da Musa bawan Ubangiji ya umarta, kun kuma yi mini biyayya cikin dukan umarnan da na ba ku.
3 ye have not forsaken your brethren, these many days, unto this day, —but have kept the charge of the commandment of Yahweh your God.
Dukan waɗannan yawan kwanaki, har zuwa yau, ba ku yashe’yan’uwanku Isra’ilawa ba, amma kuka kiyaye umarnin da Ubangiji Allahnku ya ba ku.
4 Now, therefore, that Yahweh your God hath given rest unto your brethren, according as he spake unto them, —now, therefore, turn ye and get you to your homes within the land of your possession, which Moses the servant of Yahweh gave unto you, over the Jordan.
Yanzu da Ubangiji Allahnku ya ba’yan’uwanku hutu kamar yadda ya yi alkawari, sai ku koma gidajenku a ƙasar da Musa bawan Ubangiji ya ba ku a Urdun.
5 Only, take ye diligent heed, to do the commandment and the law, which Moses the servant of Yahweh commanded you—to love Yahweh your God, and to walk in all his ways, and to keep his commandments, and to cleave unto him, —and to serve him—with all your heart, and with all your soul.
Amma ku yi hankali, ku kiyaye umarnai da kuma dokokin da Musa bawan Ubangiji ya ba ku. Ku ƙaunaci Ubangiji Allahnku, ku yi tafiya kan hanyarsa, ku yi biyayya da umarnansa, ku riƙe shi sosai, ku bauta masa da dukan zuciyarku da kuma dukan ranku.”
6 So Joshua blessed them, —and sent them away, and they took their journey unto their homes.
Sai Yoshuwa ya sa musu albarka, ya sallame su, suka kuwa tafi gidajensu.
7 Now, unto the [one] half tribe of Manesseh, had Moses given a possession in Bashan, and, unto the [other] half, did Joshua give possession with their brethren, over the Jordan, westward, —moreover also, when Joshua sent them away unto their homes, he blessed them,
(Musa ya riga ya ba rabin kabilar Manasse gādo a Bashan; sauran rabin kabilar kuma Yoshuwa ya ba su gādo tare’yan’uwansu a yammacin hayin Urdun.) Sa’ad da Yoshuwa ya sallame su su tafi gida, ya sa musu albarka,
8 and spake unto them, saying—With much wealth, return ye unto your homes, even with very much cattle, with silver and with gold, and with copper and with iron, and with very much raiment, —divide ye the spoil of your enemies with your brethren.
ya ce, “Ku koma gidajenku tare da dukiya mai yawa, babban garken dabbobi, azurfa da zinariya, tagulla da ƙarfe, da tufafi masu yawa sosai, sai ku raba ganimar da kuka samu daga abokan gābanku, da’yan’uwanku.”
9 So the sons of Reuben and the sons of Gad and the half tribe of Manasseh. returned and departed from the sons of Israel, from Shiloh, which was in the land of Canaan, —to go unto the land of Gilead, unto the land of their possession, wherein they had received their possessions, at the bidding of Yahweh by the hand of Moses.
Saboda haka sai mutanen Ruben, mutanen Gad da kuma rabin mutanen kabilar Manasse, suka bar Isra’ilawa a Shilo cikin Kan’ana don su koma Gileyad, ƙasarsu, wadda suka samu bisa ga umarnin Ubangiji ta wurin Musa.
10 And, when they came into the circles of the Jordan, which were in the land of Canaan, —then did the sons of Reuben and the sons of Gad and the half tribe of Manasseh build there an altar by the Jordan, an altar of large dimensions,
Da suka kai Gelilot kusa da Urdun cikin ƙasar Kan’ana, sai mutanen Ruben, mutanen Gad da kuma rabin mutanen kabilar Manasse suka gina bagade a can, a Urdun.
11 And the sons of Israel heard say, —Lo! the sons of Reuben and the sons of Gad and the half tribe of Manasseh have built an altar in front of the land of Canaan, in the circles of the Jordan, in the region opposite the sons of Israel.
Sa’ad da Isra’ilawa suka ji cewa sun gina bagade a iyakar Kan’ana, a Gelilot kusa da Urdun wajen gefensu na Isra’ilawa,
12 And, when the sons of Israel heard, all the assembly of the sons of Israel gathered themselves together at Shiloh, to go up against them to war.
sai dukan Isra’ilawa suka taru a Shilo don su je su yaƙe su.
13 And the sons of Israel sent unto the sons of Reuben and unto the sons of Gad and unto the half tribe of Manasseh, within the land of Gilead, —Phinehas, son of Eleazar the priest;
Saboda haka sai Isra’ilawa suka aiki Finehas ɗan Eleyazar, firist, zuwa ƙasar Gileyad, wurin mutanen Ruben, mutanen Gad da kuma rabin mutanen kabilar Manasse.
14 and ten princes with him, one prince of an ancestral house for each of the tribes of Israel, —they being, severally heads of their ancestral houses, among the thousands of Israel.
Suka aiki shugabanni guda goma su tafi tare da shi, ɗaya daga kowace kabilar Isra’ila, kowannensu shugaba ne a iyalansa.
15 So they came in unto the sons of Reuben and unto the sons of Gad and unto the half tribe of Manasseh, within the land of Gilead, —and spake with them, saying:
Sa’ad da suka je Gileyad, wurin mutanen Ruben, mutanen Gad da kuma rabin mutanen kabilar Manasse, sai suka ce musu,
16 Thus, say all the assembly of Yahweh—What is this act of treachery which ye have committed against the God of Israel, that ye should turn back, to-day, from following Yahweh, —in that ye have builded you an altar, that ye might rebel, to-day, against Yahweh?
“Dukan jama’ar Ubangiji sun ce yaya za ku juya wa Allah na Isra’ila baya haka? Yaya za ku daina bin Ubangiji ku gina wa kanku bagade, ku yi masa tawaye yanzu?
17 Too little for us, was the iniquity of Peor, from which we have not cleansed ourselves, unto this day, —although the plague came upon the assembly of Yahweh;
Zunubin da Feyor ya yi bai ishe mu ba ne? Ga shi, har yanzu ba mu gama tsarkakewa daga wannan zunubi ba, ko da yake annoba ta auko wa mutanen Ubangiji!
18 but that, ye, must turn back to-day from following Yahweh, —though it must needs be that, if, ye, rebel to-day against Yahweh, then, to-morrow, with all the assembly of Israel, will he be wroth?
Yanzu za ku daina bin Ubangiji ne? “In kuka yi wa Ubangiji tawaye yau, gobe zai yi fushi da dukan mutanen Isra’ila.
19 Howbeit, if, unclean, be the land of your possession, do ye on your part come over into the land of the possession of Yahweh, where abideth the habitation of Yahweh, and take your possession in our midst, —but, against Yahweh, do not rebel, nor, against us, rebel, by building yourselves an altar apart from the altar of Yahweh our God.
Idan ƙasar mallakarku ƙazantacciya ce, sai ku haye zuwa ƙasar Ubangiji, inda tabanakul yake, mu zauna tare. Amma kada ku yi wa Ubangiji, ko kuma ku yi mana tawaye ta wurin gina wa kanku bagade wanda ba na Ubangiji Allahnmu ba.
20 Did not, Achan son of Zerah, commit an act of treachery, with a devoted thing, and, upon all the assembly of Israel, came wrath, —so that not, he—one man alone, died in his iniquity.
Lokacin da Akan ɗan Zera ya yi rashin aminci game da kayan da aka keɓe, fushinsa Ubangiji bai auko a kan mutanen Isra’ila duka ba? Ai, ba shi kaɗai ya mutu don zunubinsa ba.”
21 Then responded the sons of Reuben and the sons of Gad and the half tribe of Manasseh, —and spake unto the heads of the thousands of Israel:
Sai mutanen Ruben, mutanen Gad da kuma rabin mutanen kabilar Manasse suka amsa wa shugabannin iyalan Isra’ila suka ce,
22 El-Elohim-Yahweh, El-Elohim-Yahweh, he knoweth, and, Israel, he, shall know, —if in rebellion, or if in treachery, against Yahweh, do not save us this day:
“Maɗaukaki, Allah, Ubangiji! Maɗaukaki, Allah, Ubangiji ya sani! In mun yi wannan cikin tawaye ko rashin biyayya ga Ubangiji ne, kada ku bar mu da rai yau.
23 that we should build for ourselves an altar, to turn back from following Yahweh, —or, if that we might cause to go up thereon ascending-sacrifice or meal-offering, or if that we might offer thereon peace-offerings, let Yahweh himself require it;
Idan mun bar bin Ubangiji, muka gina wa kanmu bagade don mu miƙa hadayun ƙonawa, ko kuwa hadayun gari, ko kuwa hadayun salama, to, bari Ubangiji kansa ya sāka mana.
24 if, indeed, we have not, rather, out of anxiety and of purpose, done this thing, saying, —. In time to come, your sons might speak to our sons, saying, What have ye to do with Yahweh, God of Israel;
“A’a! Mun yi haka ne don tsoro, kada nan gaba’ya’yanku su ce wa’ya’yanmu, ‘Me ya haɗa ku da Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila?
25 seeing that, a boundary, hath Yahweh put between us and you, ye sons of Reuben and ye sons of Gad—even the Jordan, ye have no portion in Yahweh, —so might your sons cause our sons, to cease from revering Yahweh.
Ubangiji ya sa Urdun ya zama iyaka tsakaninmu da ku, ku mutanen Ruben da mutanen Gad! Ba ku da rabo cikin Ubangiji.’’Ya’yanku za su iya sa’ya’yanmu su daina tsoron Ubangiji.
26 We said, therefore, Let us prepare, we pray you, to build us an altar, —not for ascending-offering, nor for sacrifice;
“Shi ya sa muka ce, ‘Bari mu yi shiri mu gina bagade, amma ba na ƙona hadayu ko na sadaka ba.’
27 but that, a witness, it may be between us and you, and between our generations after us, that we are to do the service of Yahweh, before him, with our ascending-offerings and with our sacrifices, and with our peace-offerings, —that your sons may not say, in time to come, to our sons, Ye have no portion in Yahweh.
Sai dai yă zama shaida tsakaninmu da ku, da kuma waɗanda za su zo a baya, cewa za mu yi wa Ubangiji sujada a wurinsa mai tsarki, za mu miƙa hadayunmu na ƙonawa, hadayu na zumunta. Sa’an nan, nan gaba’ya’yanku ba za su ce wa’ya’yanmu, ‘Ba ku da rabo a cikin Ubangiji ba.’
28 Therefore said we, And it shall be, when they [so] say to us, or to our generations, in time to come, —that we will say—Behold ye the pattern of the altar of Yahweh, which our fathers made, not for ascending-offerings nor for sacrifice, but that, a witness, it might be between us and you.
“Muka kuma ce, ‘In har suka ce mana, ko’ya’yanmu haka, sai mu amsa mu ce ku dubi bagaden da yake daidai da na Ubangiji wanda iyayenmu suka gina, ba don ƙona hadayu da kuma yin sadaka ba, sai dai don yă zama shaida tsakaninmu da ku.’
29 Far be it from us—that we should rebel against Yahweh, or turn back, to-day, from following Yahweh, by building an altar, for ascending-offering, or meal-offering or for sacrifice, —other than the altar of Yahweh our God, which is before his habitation.
“Allah ya sawwaƙa mana mu tayar wa Ubangiji mu bar binsa, har mu gina bagade don miƙa hadayu na ƙonawa, da na gari, da na sadaka, ban da bagaden Ubangiji Allahnmu wanda yake tsaye a gaban tabanakul.”
30 And, when Phinehas the priest, and the princes of the assembly, even the heads of the thousands of Israel who were with him, heard the words which the sons of Reuben and the sons of Gad and the sons of Manasseh spake, then was it well-pleasing in their eyes.
Da Finehas firist, da shugabannin mutanen, shugabannin iyalan Isra’ila, suka ji abin da mutanen Ruben, mutanen Gad da kuma rabin mutanen kabilar Manasse suka ce, sai suka ji daɗi.
31 And Phinehas son of Eleazar the priest said unto the sons of Reuben and unto the sons of Gad and unto the sons of Manasseh—To-day, we know that, in our midst, is Yahweh, in that ye have not committed, against Yahweh, this act of treachery, —now, have ye rescued the sons of Israel out of the hand of Yahweh.
Sai Finehas ɗan Eleyazar, firist, ya ce wa mutanen Ruben, mutanen Gad da kuma rabin mutanen kabilar Manasse, “Yau mun san Ubangiji yana tare da mu, domin ba ku yi wa Ubangiji rashin aminci cikin wannan abu ba. Yanzu kun kuɓutar da Isra’ilawa daga hannun Ubangiji.”
32 So Phinehas son of Eleazar the priest and the princes returned from the sons of Reuben and from the sons of Gad, out of the land of Gilead, unto the land of Canaan, unto the sons of Israel, —and brought them back word.
Sai Finehas ɗan Eleyazar, firist, da shugabannin suka koma Kan’ana daga saduwa da mutanen Ruben da mutanen Gad a Gileyad, suka kai wa Isra’ilawa rahoto.
33 And the thing was well-pleasing in the eyes of the sons of Israel, and the sons of Israel blessed God, —and spake not of going up against them, to war, to lay waste the land, wherein the sons of Reuben and the sons of Gad dwelt.
Isra’ilawa suka ji daɗin rahoton da suka ji, suka kuma yi wa Allah yabo. Ba su sāke yin maganar zuwa yaƙi don su rushe ƙasar da mutanen Ruben da mutanen Gad suke ciki ba.
34 So the sons of Reuben and the sons of Gad named the altar [a Witness]: A witness, it is between us, That, Yahweh, is God.
Sai mutanen Ruben da mutanen Gad suka ba wa wannan bagaden sunan, Shaida Tsakaninmu, cewa Ubangiji Allah ne.
