< Judges 2 >
1 And the messenger of Yahweh came up from Gilgal, unto Bochim. And he said—I led you up out of Egypt, and brought you into the land, which I had sworn unto your fathers, And I said, I will not break my covenant with you, to times age-abiding;
Mala’ikan Ubangiji ya haura daga Gilgal zuwa Bokim ya ce, “Na hauro da ku daga Masar zuwa ƙasar da na rantse zan ba wa kakanninku. Na ce, ‘Ba zan taɓa tā da yarjejjeniyata da ku ba,
2 But, ye, must not solemnise a covenant with the inhabitants of this land, Their altars, must ye tear down, —But ye have not hearkened unto my voice, what is this ye have done?
ku kuma kada ku shiga wata yarjejjeniya da mazaunan ƙasan nan, sai dai za ku rurrushe bagadansu.’ Duk da haka ba ku yi biyayya mini ba. Me ya sa kuka yi haka?
3 Wherefore also I said, I will not drive them out from before you, —but they shall be your adversaries, and, their gods, shall become unto you a snare.
Saboda haka ina gaya muku cewa ba zan kore su a gabanku ba; za su zama muku ƙaya, gumakansu kuma za su zama muku tarko.”
4 And it came to pass, when the messenger of Yahweh had spoken these words unto all the sons of Israel, that the people lifted up their voice, and wept.
Da mala’ikan Ubangiji ya faɗa wa dukan Isra’ilawa waɗannan abubuwa, sai mutane suka yi kuka mai zafi,
5 So they called the name of that place, Bochim, and offered sacrifice there, unto Yahweh.
sai suka sa wa wannan wuri suna, Bokim. A nan suka miƙa hadaya a gaban Ubangiji.
6 Now, when Joshua had let the people go, the sons of Israel went their way, every man to his inheritance, to take possession of the land.
Bayan Yoshuwa ya sallami Isra’ilawa, sai suka tafi don su mallaki ƙasar, kowa da nasa gādon.
7 And the people served Yahweh all the days of Joshua, —and all the days of the elders who outlived Joshua, who had seen all the great work of Yahweh which he had wrought for Israel.
Mutane suka bauta wa Ubangiji duk tsawon kwanakin Yoshuwa da na dattawan da suka rayu bayansa waɗanda suka ga manyan abubuwan da Ubangiji ya yi wa Isra’ila.
8 So then Joshua, the son of Nun, the servant of Yahweh, died, —being a hundred and ten years old.
Yoshuwa ɗan Nun, bawan Ubangiji, ya mutu yana da shekara ɗari da goma.
9 And they buried him within the bounds of his inheritance, in Timnath-heres, in the hill country of Ephraim, —on the north of Mount Gaash.
Aka binne shi a ƙasar gādonsa, a Timnat Heres a ƙasar tudu ta Efraim, arewa da Dutsen Ga’ash.
10 All that generation also, were gathered unto their fathers, —and there arose another generation, after them, who had not known Yahweh, nor even the work which he had wrought for Israel.
Bayan tsaran nan duka suka rasu, sai wata tsara ta taso wadda ba tă san Ubangiji ko abin da ya yi wa Isra’ila ba.
11 So the sons of Israel did the thing that was wicked in the sight of Yahweh, —and served the Baals;
Sai Isra’ilawa suka yi mugaye abubuwa a gaban Ubangiji suka kuma bauta Ba’al.
12 and forsook Yahweh, the God of their fathers, who brought them up out of the land of Egypt, and went after other gods, from among the gods of the peoples who were round about them, and bowed themselves down unto them, —and angered Yahweh.
Suka yashe Ubangiji Allah na kakanninsu, wanda ya fitar da su daga Masar. Suka bi suka kuma bauta alloli dabam-dabam na mutanen da suke kewaye da su. Suka tsokani Ubangiji ya yi fushi
13 Yea, they forsook Yahweh, —and did service unto the Baal and unto Ashtaroth.
domin sun bar shi suka bauta wa Ba’al da Ashtarot.
14 Then kindled the anger of Yahweh upon Israel, and he delivered them into the hand of spoilers, who plundered them, —and he sold them into the hand of their enemies round about, so that they could no longer stand before their enemies.
Cikin fushinsa a kan Isra’ila Ubangiji ya ba da su ga hannun waɗanda suka kawo musu hari suka washe su. Ya sayar da su ga abokan gābansu da suke kewaye da su, waɗanda ba za su iya yin tsayayya da su ba.
15 Whithersoever they went out, the hand of Yahweh was found to be against them for misfortune, as spake Yahweh, and as sware Yahweh unto them, —and they were distressed exceedingly.
Duk sa’ad da Isra’ila suka fita yaƙi, Ubangiji yakan yi gāba da su don a ci su a yaƙi, kamar dai yadda ya rantse musu. Suka kuwa shiga wahala ƙwarai.
16 And, though Yahweh raised up judges, —who saved them out of the hand of them that plundered them,
Sa’an nan Ubangiji ya naɗa mahukunta, waɗanda suka cece su daga hannun waɗannan musu hari.
17 yet, even unto their judges, did thy not hearken, for they went unchastely astray after other gods, and bowed themselves down to them, —they turned aside speedily out of the way wherein their fathers who hearkened unto the commandments of Yahweh, walked, they did not so.
Duk da haka ba su saurari mahukuntansu ba amma sai suka shiga ha’inci da waɗansu alloli suka kuma bauta musu. Ba kamar kakanninsu ba, nan da nan suka kauce daga hanyar da kakanninsu suka bi, hanyar biyayya ga umarnan Ubangiji.
18 And, when Yahweh raised them up judges, then was Yahweh with the judges, and saved them out of the hand of their enemies, all the days of the judge, —for Yahweh was grieved at their outcry, because of them who oppressed them, and ill-treated them.
Duk sa’ad da Ubangiji ya naɗa musu mahukunci, yakan kasance tare da mahukuncin, yă kuma cece su daga hannun abokan gāba, muddin mahukuncin yana a raye; gama Ubangiji yakan ji tausayinsu yayinda suke gunaguni ƙarƙashin waɗanda suka danne su suke kuma gasa musu azaba.
19 But, when the judge was dead, they again broke faith more than their fathers, by going their way after other gods, by serving them, and bowing themselves down to them, —they ceased not from their doings nor from their stubborn way.
Amma sa’ad da mahukuncin ya mutu, mutanen suka koma hanyar da ta fi ta kakanninsu muni, sukan bi waɗansu alloli suna bauta musu. Suka ƙi barin mugun ayyukansu da taurin zuciyarsu.
20 So then the anger of Yahweh kindled upon Israel, and he said—Forasmuch as this nation have transgressed my covenant, which I commanded their fathers, and have not hearkened unto my voice,
Saboda haka sai Ubangiji ya fusata da Isra’ila ya ce, “Domin wannan al’umma ta tā da yarjejjeniyar da na yi da kakanninsu ba su kuwa saurare ni ba,
21 I also, will no further dispossess a man from before them, —from among the nations which Joshua left remaining, when he died;
ba zan ƙara kori wata al’ummar da Yoshuwa ya bari sa’ad da ya rasu ba.
22 that I may, by them, put Israel to the proof, —whether they are going to be observant of the way of Yahweh, to walk therein as their fathers observed it, or not.
Zan yi amfani da su in gwada Isra’ila in ga ko za su bi hanyar Ubangiji su kuma yi tafiya a cikinta kamar yadda kakanninsu suka yi.”
23 Thus then Yahweh left these nations, not dispossessing them speedily, —neither had he delivered them into the hand of Joshua
Ubangiji ya bar waɗannan al’ummai su kasance; bai kore su nan take ta wurin ba da su a hannun Yoshuwa ba.
