2 Chronicles 14
1 Abijah slept with his ancestors, and they buried him in the city of David. Asa, his son, became king in his place. In his days the land was quiet ten years.
Abiya kuwa ya huta tare da kakanninsa, aka kuma binne shi a Birnin Dawuda. Asa ɗansa ya gāje shi a matsayin sarki, a zamaninsa kuma ƙasar ta zauna lafiya na shekara goma.
2 Asa did what was good and right in the eyes of Yahweh his God,
Asa ya yi abin da yake da kyau da kuma daidai a gaban Ubangiji Allahnsa.
3 for he took away the foreign altars and the high places. He broke down the stone pillars and cut down the Asherah poles.
Ya kawar da baƙin bagade da masujadai bisa tudu, ya farfashe keɓaɓɓun duwatsu, ya kuma sassare ginshiƙan Ashera.
4 He commanded Judah to seek Yahweh, the God of their ancestors, and to carry out the law and the commandments.
Ya umarci Yahuda su nemi Ubangiji Allah na kakanninsu, su kuma yi biyayya da dokoki da kuma umarnansa.
5 Also he took away the high places and the incense altars from all the cities of Judah. The kingdom had rest under him.
Ya kawar da masujadan kan tudu da bagadan turare a kowane gari a Yahuda, masarautar kuwa ta zauna lafiya a ƙarƙashinsa.
6 He built fortified cities in Judah, for the land was quiet, and he had no war in those years, because Yahweh had given him peace.
Ya gina biranen katanga na Yahuda, da yake ƙasar tana zaman lafiya. Babu wanda yake yaƙi da shi a waɗannan shekaru, gama Ubangiji ya ba shi hutu.
7 For Asa said to Judah, “Let us build these cities and make walls around them, and towers, gates, and bars; the land is still ours because we have sought Yahweh our God. We have sought him, and he has given us peace on every side.” So they built and succeeded.
Ya ce wa Yahuda, “Bari mu gina waɗannan garuruwa mu sa katanga kewaye da su, da hasumiyoyi, ƙofofi da ƙyamare. Ƙasar har yanzu tamu ce domin mun nemi Ubangiji Allahnmu, mun neme shi ya kuwa ba mu hutu a kowane gefe.” Saboda haka suka gina suka kuma yi nasara.
8 Asa had an army that carried shields and spears; from Judah he had 300,000 men, and from Benjamin, 280,000 men who carried shields and drew bows. All of these were mighty men.
Asa ya kasance da mayaƙa dubu ɗari uku daga Yahuda, kintsatse da manyan garkuwoyi da māsu, da kuma mayaƙa dubu ɗari biyu da dubu tamanin daga Benyamin, riƙe da ƙananan garkuwoyi da kuma baka. Dukan waɗannan jarumawa ne ƙwarai.
9 Zerah the Cushite came against them with an army of one million soldiers and three hundred chariots; he came to Mareshah.
Zera mutumin Kush ya taka ya fita don yă yaƙe su da babban runduna da kuma kekunan yaƙi ɗari uku, ya kuma zo har Maresha.
10 Then Asa went out to meet him, and they set the battle lines in order in the Valley of Zephathah at Mareshah.
Asa ya fita don yă ƙara da shi, suka ja dāgā yaƙi a Kwarin Zefata kusa da Maresha.
11 Asa cried to Yahweh, his God, and said, “Yahweh, there is no one but you to help one who has no strength when he is facing many. Help us, Yahweh our God, for we rely on you, and in your name we have come against this vast number. Yahweh, you are our God; do not let man defeat you.”
Sai Asa ya kira ga Ubangiji Allahnsa ya ce, “Ubangiji, babu wani kamar ka da zai taimaki marar ƙarfi a kan mai ƙarfi. Ka taimake mu, ya Ubangiji Allahnmu, gama mun dogara a gare ka, kuma a cikin sunanka muka fito don mu yaƙi wannan babbar runduna. Ya Ubangiji, kai ne Allahnmu; kada ka bar mutum yă yi nasara a kanka.”
12 So Yahweh struck the Cushites before Asa and Judah; the Cushites fled.
Ubangiji fa ya bugi mutanen Kush a gaban Asa da Yahuda. Mutanen Kush suka gudu,
13 Asa and the soldiers with him pursued them to Gerar. So many Cushites fell that they could not recover, for they were completely destroyed before Yahweh and his army. The army carried away very much plunder.
Asa kuwa da mayaƙansa suka bi su har Gerar. Mutanen Kush suka mutu a ranan nan har ba a iya ƙidaya, aka buge su a gaban Ubangiji da rundunansa. Mutanen Yahuda suka kwashi ganima sosai.
14 The army destroyed all the villages around Gerar, for terror of Yahweh had come on the inhabitants. The army plundered all the villages, and there was much booty in them.
Suka hallaka dukan ƙauyukan kewaye da Gerar, gama tsoron Ubangiji ya kama su. Suka kwashi ganima na dukan ƙauyukan nan, da yake akwai ganima sosai a can.
15 The army also destroyed the tent settlements of the shepherding nomads; they carried away sheep in abundance, as well as camels, and then they returned to Jerusalem.
Suka kuma yaƙi sansanin makiyaya suka kwashe tumaki da awaki da raƙuma. Suka koma Urushalima.
