< 2 Samuel 13 >

1 David’s son Absalom had a beautiful sister named Tamar. Another of David’s sons, Amnon, was attracted to Tamar.
Ana nan sai Amnon ɗan Dawuda ya fara son Tamar, kyakkyawar’yar’uwar Absalom ɗan Dawuda.
2 He wanted [to have sex with] [EUP] his half-sister very much, with the result that he made himself sick [thinking about her all the time]. But it was not possible for Amnon to get her, because she was a virgin, [so they kept men away from her].
Amnon ya matsu ƙwarai har abin ya sa shi ciwo saboda ƙanuwarsa Tamar. Ya gane zai zama da wuya yă sadu da Tamar ita kaɗai, gama ba ta taɓa kwana da namiji ba.
3 But Amnon had a friend named Jonadab, who was the son of David’s brother Shimeah. Jonadab was a very crafty/shrewd man.
To, Amnon yana da wani aboki mai suna Yonadab, ɗan Shimeya, ɗan’uwan Dawuda. Yonadab dai mai wayo ne ƙwarai.
4 [One day] Jonadab said to Amnon, “You are the king’s son, but every day I see that [RHQ] you seem very depressed/sad. What is your problem?” Amnon replied, “I (am in love/want to sleep) [EUP] with Tamar, my half-brother Absalom’s sister.”
Ya tambayi Amnon ya ce, “Don me kowace safiya fuskarka a ɓace take? Kai ba yaron sarki ba ne? Faɗa mini, me ke faruwa?” Amnon ya ce masa, “Ina son Tamar ƙanuwar wan nawa Absalom ne.”
5 Jonadab said to him, “Lie down on your bed, and pretend that you are sick. When your father comes to see you, say to him, ‘Allow my half-sister Tamar to come and give me some food to eat. She can prepare the food while I am watching her. Then she can serve it to me herself.’”
Yonadab ya ce, “Je gado ka kwanta kamar ba ka da lafiya. Sa’ad da mahaifinka ya zo ganinka, sai ka ce masa, ‘Ina so ƙanuwata Tamar tă kawo mini wani abu in ci. Bari tă shirya abincin a gabana don in ganta, in kuma ci daga hannunta.’”
6 So Amnon lay down, and pretended that he was sick. When the king came to see him, Amnon said to him, “[I am sick; ] please allow my half-sister Tamar to come and make a couple scones/dumplings for me while I am watching, and then she can serve them to me.”
Sai Amnon ya kwanta sai ka ce yana ciwo. Da sarki ya zo don ganinsa, sai Amnon ya ce, “Zan so ƙanuwata Tamar tă zo tă shirya mini abinci a gabana, don in ci daga hannunta.”
7 So David sent a message to Tamar in the palace, saying “Amnon [is sick and he wants you to] go to his house and prepare some food for him.”
Dawuda kuwa ya aika wa Tamar a fada, ya ce, “Ki je gidan Amnon ɗan’uwanki, ki yi masa abinci.”
8 So Tamar went to Amnon’s house, where he was lying in bed. She took some dough and kneaded it, and formed it into some scones/dumplings while he was watching her. Then she baked them.
Saboda haka Tamar ta tafi gidan ɗan’uwanta Amnon, wanda yake kwance. Ta ɗauki fulawa, ta kwaɓa, ta yi burodi a gabansa ta toya shi.
9 She took them out of the pan and put them [on a plate] in front of him, but he refused to eat them. Then he said to everyone else in the room, “All the rest of you, leave me now!” So all the others left his [room].
Sa’an nan ta juye a kasko ta ba shi burodin, amma ya ƙi ci. Amnon ya ce, “A sa kowa yă fita daga nan.” Saboda haka kowa ya fita ya bar shi.
10 Then Amnon said to Tamar, “Bring the food into my room and serve it to me.” So Tamar took into his room the scones/dumplings that she had made.
Sa’an nan Amnon ya ce wa Tamar, “Kawo abincin a nan a cikin ɗakin kwanciyata, don in ci daga hannunki.” Tamar kuwa ta ɗauki burodin da ta toya, ta kawo wa ɗan’uwanta Amnon a ciki ɗakin kwanciyarsa.
11 But when she brought them close for him to eat them, he grabbed her and said to her, “Come to bed with me!”
Amma da ta kai masa don yă ci, sai ya cafke ta ya ce, “Zo in kwana da ke,’yar’uwata.”
12 She replied, “No, do not force me to do such a disgraceful thing! We never do things like that in Israel! That would be awful/terrible!
Ta ce, “Kada ka yi wannan ɗan’uwana! Kada ka tilasta ni. Bai kamata a yi irin wannan abu a Isra’ila ba! Kada ka yi wannan mugun abu.
13 As for me, if I did that, I would not be able to [RHQ] endure being disgraced by having done that. And as for you, everyone in Israel would condemn you for having done such a disgraceful deed. So I plead with you, talk to the king. I am sure that he will allow me to marry you.”
Ni fa, ina zan sa kaina saboda kunya? Kai kuma za ka zama kamar wani mugun wawa a Isra’ila. Ina roƙonka ka yi wa sarki magana; ba zai hana ni aurenka ba.”
14 But he would not listen to her. He was stronger than she was, so he forced her to have sex with him.
Amma Amnon ya ƙi yă saurare ta, da yake ya fi ta ƙarfi, sai ya yi mata fyaɗe.
15 Then Amnon hated her very much. He hated her much more than he had desired her. He said to her, “Get up and get out of here!”
Bayan ya yi lalata da ita sai Amnon ya ƙi ta da mummunan ƙiyayya. Zahiri ya ƙi ta fiye da ya ƙaunace ta. Sai Amnon ya ce mata, “Tashi, ki fita!”
16 But she said to him, “No! It would be very wrong for you to send me away. It would be worse than what you just did to me!” But he would not listen to her.
Ta ce, “A’a! Korina zai fi muni da abin da ka riga ka yi mini.” Amma ya ƙi yă saurare ta.
17 He summoned his personal servant and said to him, “Take this woman outside, away from me, and lock the door [so that she cannot come in again]!”
Sai ya kira bawansa ya ce, “Fitar da matan nan daga nan, ka rufe ƙofa.”
18 So the servant put her outside and locked the door. Tamar was wearing a long robe with long sleeves, which was the clothing that was usually worn by the unmarried daughters of the king at that time.
Saboda haka bawansa ya fitar da ita, ya kuma sa aka rufe ƙofa. Tana sanye da doguwar riga mai kayan ado masu tsada, gama wannan ne irin kayan da budurwai’ya’yan sarki mata suke sawa.
19 But Tamar tore the long robe that she was wearing, and put ashes on her head [to show that she was very sad]. Then she put her hands on her head [to show that she was grieving], and she went away, crying.
Sai Tamar ta zuba toka a kanta, ta kuma yayyage doguwar riga mai kayan adon da take sanye da shi. Ta sa hannunta a kai, ta tafi tana kuka da ƙarfi.
20 Her brother Absalom [saw her and] said to her, “Has your half-brother Amnon [DOU] forced you to have sex with him [EUP]? Please, my sister, do not tell anyone, and do not become depressed/sad.” So Tamar went to live in Absalom’s house, and she was very sad and lonely.
Absalom ɗan’uwanta ya ce mata, “Amnon, ɗan’uwanki ya ɓata ki ko? To, ki yi shiru’yar’uwata; ai, ɗan’uwanki ne. Kada wannan abu yă dame ki.” Tamar kuwa ta zauna a gidan ɗan’uwanta Absalom, zaman kaɗaici.
21 When King David heard about all that, he became very angry.
Da Sarki Dawuda ya ji dukan abin da ya faru, sai ya husata ƙwarai.
22 And Absalom hated Amnon, because he had raped his sister, so he would not speak to Amnon about anything.
Absalom kuwa bai yi wa Amnon wata magana ta alheri ko ta mugunta ba; ya ƙi jinin Amnon domin ya ci mutuncin ƙanuwarsa Tamar.
23 Two years later, Absalom’s servants were shearing sheep at Baal-Hazor, which is near [a town named] Ephraim. [When they finished shearing the sheep, they celebrated], and Absalom invited all the king’s sons [to come and celebrate].
Bayan shekaru biyu, sa’ad da masu askin tumakin Absalom suna Ba’al-Hazor, kusa da iyakar Efraim, sai ya gayyaci dukan’ya’yan sarki maza a can.
24 Absalom went to the king and said to him, “Sir, my servants have been shearing my sheep. Please come with your officials [to celebrate] with us!”
Sai Absalom ya je wurin sarki ya ce, “Bawanka ya sa masu askin tumaki sun zo. Ko sarki da fadawansa za su zo tare da ni?”
25 But the king replied, “No, my son, it would not be good for all of us to go, because it would cause you to do a lot of work and spend a lot of money for food.” Absalom continued urging him, but the king would not go. Instead, he said that he hoped/desired that God would bless them [while they celebrated].
Sarki ya ce, “A’a ɗana, bai kamata dukanmu mu tafi ba; don kada nauyi yă yi maka yawa.” Absalom dai ya dāge, duk da haka sarki ya ƙi yă je, sai dai ya albarkace shi.
26 Then Absalom said, “If you will not go, please allow my half-brother Amnon to go with us.” But the king replied, “Why [do you want] him to go with you?”
Sa’an nan Absalom ya ce, to, “In ba za ka ba, ina roƙonka bari Amnon ɗan’uwana yă zo tare da mu.” Sarki ya ce masa, “Don me zai tafi tare da kai?”
27 But Absalom continued to insist, so finally the king permitted Amnon and all David’s other sons to go with Absalom.
Amma Absalom ya nace don sarki yă yarda, saboda haka sarki ya bar Amnon da sauran’ya’yan sarki maza su tafi tare da shi.
28 [So they all went. And at the celebration], Absalom commanded his servants, “Notice when Amnon has become a bit drunk from the wine. Then when I signal to you, kill him. Do not be afraid; you will be doing this [only] because I told you [RHQ] to do it. So be courageous and do it!”
Absalom ya umarci mutanensa ya ce, “Ku saurara! Sa’ad da Amnon ya bugu sosai da giya na kuma ce muku, ‘Ku bugi Amnon,’ sai ku kashe shi. Kada ku ji tsoro. Ashe, ba ni ne na ba ku wannan umarni ba? Ku yi ƙarfin hali, ku kuma yi jaruntaka.”
29 So Absalom’s servants did what Absalom told them to do. [They killed Amnon]. All the rest of David’s sons [saw what happened and] fled, riding on their mules.
Saboda haka mutanen Absalom suka yi wa Amnon abin da Absalom ya umarta. Sai dukan sauran’ya’yan sarki maza suka hau dawakansu suka gudu.
30 While they were on their way home, someone [went quickly and] reported to David, “Absalom has killed all of your other sons; none of them is still alive!”
Yayinda suke kan hanyarsu, sai labari ya kai kunnen Dawuda cewa, “Absalom ya kashe dukan’ya’yan sarki maza; ko ɗayansu Absalom bai rage ba.”
31 The king stood up, tore his clothes [because he was extremely sad], and then he threw himself down on the ground. All the servants who were there also tore their clothes.
Sai sarki ya tashi, ya yage tufafinsa, ya kuma kwanta a ƙasa; dukan bayinsa kuwa suka tsaya da rigunansu yagaggu.
32 But Jonadab, the son of David’s brother Shimeah, said, “Your Majesty, [I am sure that] they have not killed all your sons. [I am sure that] only Amnon is dead, because Absalom has determined to do this ever since the day that Amnon raped [EUP] his half-sister Tamar.
Amma Yonadab, ɗan Shimeya ɗan’uwan Dawuda ya ce, “Kada ranka yă daɗe yă yi tunani cewa an kashe dukan’ya’yan sarki maza; Amnon ne kaɗai ya mutu. Wannan ce niyyar Absalom tun lokacin da Amnon ya yi wa Tamar’yar’uwansa fyaɗe.
33 So, your majesty, do not believe the report that all your sons are dead. [I am sure that] only Amnon is dead.”
Kada mai girma sarki yă damu da jita-jitan nan cewa an kashe dukan’ya’yan sarki maza. Amnon ne kaɗai ya mutu.”
34 In the meantime, Absalom ran away. Just then, the soldier/sentry [who was standing on the city wall] saw a large crowd of people coming down the hill along the road from Horonaim. [He ran and told the king what he had seen].
Ana cikin haka, sai Absalom ya gudu. To, mutumin da yake tsaro a wannan lokaci ya ɗaga kai sai ya ga mutane da yawa a hanya, yamma da shi, suna gangarowa daga gefen tudu. Sai mai tsaron ya je ya gaya wa sarki cewa, “Na ga mutane ta wajen Horonayim, a gefen tudu.”
35 Jonadab said to the king, “Aha! What I told you is true. Your other sons [are alive and] have come!”
Yonadab ya ce wa Sarki, “Duba, ga’ya’yan sarki maza sun zo; ya faru kamar dai yadda bawanka ya faɗa.”
36 And as soon as he said that, David’s sons came in. They all started crying, and David and all his officials also cried very much.
Yana gama magana, sai ga’ya’yan sarki maza suka shigo suna kuka da ƙarfi. Sarki ma da dukan bayinsa suka yi kuka mai zafi.
37 But Absalom had fled. He went to stay with the king of [the] Geshur [region], who was Talmai the son of Ammihud. Absalom stayed there for three years. David mourned for his son Amnon for a long time,
Absalom ya gudu ya tafi wurin Talmai ɗan Ammihud, sarkin Geshur. Amma Sarki Dawuda ya yi ta makokin ɗansa kowace rana.
Bayan Absalom ya gudu sai ya je wurin Geshur, ya zauna a can shekara uku.
39 but after that, he desired very much to see Absalom, because he was no longer grieving about Amnon being dead.
Sai zuciyar sarki Dawuda ya komo kan Absalom, gama an yi masa ta’aziyya game da mutuwar Amnon.
