< Judges 20 >

1 Then all the children of Israel went out, and the congregation was assembled as one man, from Dan even to Beersheba, with the land of Gilead, to the LORD at Mizpah.
Sa’an nan dukan Isra’ilawa daga Dan zuwa Beyersheba kuma daga ƙasar Gileyad mutane kamar mutum guda suka fito suka taru a gaban Ubangiji a Mizfa.
2 The chiefs of all the people, even of all the tribes of Israel, presented themselves in the assembly of the people of God, four hundred thousand footmen who drew sword.
Shugabanni dukan kabilan mutane na kabilan Isra’ila suka zazzauna a wurarensu a taron jama’ar Allah, mayaƙa dubu ɗari huɗu masu ɗamara da takuba.
3 (Now the children of Benjamin heard that the children of Israel had gone up to Mizpah.) The children of Israel said, “Tell us, how did this wickedness happen?”
(Mutanen Benyamin suka ji cewa Isra’ilawa sun haura zuwa Mizfa.) Sa’an nan Isra’ilawa suka ce, “Gaya mana yadda wannan mugun abu ya faru.”
4 The Levite, the husband of the woman who was murdered, answered, “I came into Gibeah that belongs to Benjamin, I and my concubine, to spend the night.
Sai Balawen, mijin matar da aka kashe ya ce, “Ni da ƙwarƙwarata mun zo Gibeya a Benyamin don mu kwana.
5 The men of Gibeah rose against me, and surrounded the house by night. They intended to kill me and they raped my concubine, and she is dead.
Da dad dare mutanen Gibeya suka bi ni suka kewaye gidan da niyya su kashe ni. Suka yi wa ƙwarƙwarata fyaɗe, har ta mutu.
6 I took my concubine and cut her in pieces, and sent her throughout all the country of the inheritance of Israel; for they have committed lewdness and folly in Israel.
Na ɗauki ƙwarƙwarata na yayyanka gunduwa-gunduwa na aika da shi ga kowane yankin gādon Isra’ila, domin sun aikata mugu abu da abin kunya a Isra’ila.
7 Behold, you children of Israel, all of you, give here your advice and counsel.”
To, dukanku Isra’ilawa, sai ku yi magana ku kuma yanke hukuncinku.”
8 All the people arose as one man, saying, “None of us will go to his tent, neither will any of us turn to his house.
Dukan mutane suka tashi kamar mutum ɗaya, suna cewa “Ba waninmu da zai tafi gida. Sam, babu ko ɗayanmu da zai koma gidansa.
9 But now this is the thing which we will do to Gibeah: we will go up against it by lot;
Amma yanzu ga abin da za mu yi wa Gibeya. Za mu haura mu fāɗa yadda ƙuri’a ta nunar.
10 and we will take ten men of one hundred throughout all the tribes of Israel, and one hundred of one thousand, and a thousand out of ten thousand to get food for the people, that they may do, when they come to Gibeah of Benjamin, according to all the folly that the men of Gibeah have done in Israel.”
Za mu ɗauko mutum goma a kowane mutum ɗari daga dukan kabilan Isra’ila, da ɗari a dubu, da kuma dubu a dubu goma, domin a tanada wa mayaƙan. Sa’an nan, sa’ad da mayaƙan suka iso Geba a Benyamin, za su yi da su daidai bisa ga muguntar da suka yi a Isra’ila.”
11 So all the men of Israel were gathered against the city, knit together as one man.
Saboda haka dukan mutane Isra’ilawa suka taru suka kuma haɗu kamar mutum guda don su fāɗa wa birnin da yaƙi.
12 The tribes of Israel sent men through all the tribe of Benjamin, saying, “What wickedness is this that has happened among you?
Kabilan Isra’ila suka aika jakadu a ko’ina a cikin kabilar Benyamin cewa, “Wace irin mugunta ce wannan da kuka aikata?
13 Now therefore deliver up the men, the wicked fellows who are in Gibeah, that we may put them to death and put away evil from Israel.” But Benjamin would not listen to the voice of their brothers, the children of Israel.
Yanzu fa sai ku fitar da waɗannan’yan iskan da suka aikata wannan abu na Gibeya don mu kashe su mu kawar da mugunta daga Isra’ila!” Amma mutanen Benyamin ba su saurari’yan’uwansu Isra’ilawa ba.
14 The children of Benjamin gathered themselves together out of the cities to Gibeah, to go out to battle against the children of Israel.
Daga biranensu suka tattaru a Gibeya don su yaƙi Isra’ilawa.
15 The children of Benjamin were counted on that day out of the cities twenty-six thousand men who drew the sword, in addition to the inhabitants of Gibeah, who were counted seven hundred chosen men.
Nan da nan mutanen Benyamin suka tattara mayaƙa dubu ashirin da shida masu takuba daga biranensu, ban da mayaƙa ɗari bakwai da aka zaɓa daga mazauna a Gibeya.
16 Among all these soldiers there were seven hundred chosen men who were left-handed. Every one of them could sling a stone at a hair and not miss.
Cikin dukan mayaƙan nan akwai zaɓaɓɓu mutane ɗari bakwai waɗanda su bahagwai ne, kowanne yana iya harbin gashin guda na kai da majajjawa ba kuskure.
17 The men of Israel, besides Benjamin, were counted four hundred thousand men who drew sword. All these were men of war.
Isra’ila kuwa, ban da Benyamin, sun tara mayaƙa masu takobi dubu ɗari huɗu, dukansu gwanayen yaƙi ne.
18 The children of Israel arose, went up to Bethel, and asked counsel of God. They asked, “Who shall go up for us first to battle against the children of Benjamin?” The LORD said, “Judah first.”
Sai Isra’ilawa suka haura zuwa Betel suka nemi nufin Allah, suka ce, “Wane ne a cikinmu zai fara fāɗa wa mutanen Benyamin?” Ubangiji ya ce, “Yahuda ce za tă fara.”
19 The children of Israel rose up in the morning and encamped against Gibeah.
Kashegari sai Isra’ilawa suka tashi suka kafa sansani kusa da Gibeya.
20 The men of Israel went out to battle against Benjamin; and the men of Israel set the battle in array against them at Gibeah.
Mutanen Isra’ila suka fita yaƙi da mutane Benyamin suka kuma ja dāgār yaƙi a Gibeya.
21 The children of Benjamin came out of Gibeah, and on that day destroyed twenty-two thousand of the Israelite men down to the ground.
Mutanen Benyamin suka fito daga Gibeya suka kashe mutum dubu ashirin da biyu na Isra’ilawa a dāgār yaƙi a ranar.
22 The people, the men of Israel, encouraged themselves, and set the battle again in array in the place where they set themselves in array the first day.
Amma mutanen Isra’ila suka ƙarfafa juna, suka sāke koma inda suka ja dāgā a rana ta farko.
23 The children of Israel went up and wept before the LORD until evening; and they asked of the LORD, saying, “Shall I again draw near to battle against the children of Benjamin my brother?” The LORD said, “Go up against him.”
Isra’ilawa suka haura suka yi kuka a gaban Ubangiji, har yamma, suka nemi nufin Ubangiji. Suka ce, “Mu sāke koma yaƙi da mutanen Benyamin,’yan’uwanmu?” Ubangiji ya ce, “Ku haura ku fāɗa musu.”
24 The children of Israel came near against the children of Benjamin the second day.
Sai Isra’ilawa suka matsa kusa da Benyamin a rana ta biyu.
25 Benjamin went out against them out of Gibeah the second day, and destroyed down to the ground of the children of Israel again eighteen thousand men. All these drew the sword.
A wannan lokaci, da mutanen Benyamin suka fito daga Gibeya don su yaƙe su, sai suka sāke kashe Isra’ilawa dubu goma sha takwas, dukansu ɗauke da takuba.
26 Then all the children of Israel and all the people went up, and came to Bethel, and wept, and sat there before the LORD, and fasted that day until evening; then they offered burnt offerings and peace offerings before the LORD.
Sa’an nan Isra’ilawa, dukan mutane, suka haura zuwa Betel, a can suka zauna suna kuka a gaban Ubangiji. Suka yi azumi a wannan rana har yamma suka miƙa hadayun ƙonawa da hadayun salama ga Ubangiji.
27 The children of Israel asked the LORD (for the ark of the covenant of God was there in those days,
Isra’ilawa suka nemi nufin Ubangiji (A kwanakin nan akwatin alkawarin Allah yana can,
28 and Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron, stood before it in those days), saying, “Shall I yet again go out to battle against the children of Benjamin my brother, or shall I cease?” The LORD said, “Go up; for tomorrow I will deliver him into your hand.”
Finehas ɗan Eleyazar, ɗan Haruna, kuwa yana hidima a gabansa.) Suka ce, “Mu sāke haura mu yi yaƙi da mutanen Benyamin’yan’uwanmu, ko a’a?” Ubangiji ya ce, “Ku je, gama gobe zan ba da su a hannuwanku.”
29 Israel set ambushes all around Gibeah.
Sa’an nan Isra’ila ta yi kwanto kewaya da Gibeya.
30 The children of Israel went up against the children of Benjamin on the third day, and set themselves in array against Gibeah, as at other times.
Suka haura su kara da mutanen Benyamin a rana ta uku suka ja dāgā a Gibeya kamar dā.
31 The children of Benjamin went out against the people, and were drawn away from the city; and they began to strike and kill of the people as at other times, in the highways, of which one goes up to Bethel and the other to Gibeah, in the field, about thirty men of Israel.
Mutanen Benyamin suka fito su same su aka kuma jawo su nesa da birnin. Suka fara karkashe Isra’ilawa kamar dā, har aka kashe wajen mutum talatin a filaye da kuma a hanyoyi, wadda take zuwa Betel da kuma wadda take zuwa Gibeya.
32 The children of Benjamin said, “They are struck down before us, as at the first.” But the children of Israel said, “Let’s flee, and draw them away from the city to the highways.”
Yayinda mutanen Benyamin suna cewa, “Muna cin nasara a kansu kamar dā,” Isra’ilawa kuwa suna cewa, “Mu yi ta jan da baya mu janye su daga birni zuwa kan hanyoyi.”
33 All the men of Israel rose up out of their place and set themselves in array at Baal Tamar. Then the ambushers of Israel broke out of their place, even out of Maareh Geba.
Dukan mutanen Isra’ila suka taso daga wurarensu suka ja dāgā a Ba’al-Tamar, Isra’ilawan da suka yi kwanto a yammancin Geba kuwa suka fito.
34 Ten thousand chosen men out of all Israel came over against Gibeah, and the battle was severe; but they didn’t know that disaster was close to them.
Sa’an nan jarumai Isra’ila dubu goma suka yi gaba suka kai wa Gibeya hari. Yaƙi kuwa ya yi zafi har mutane Benyamin ba su san masifa tana dab da su ba.
35 The LORD struck Benjamin before Israel; and the children of Israel destroyed of Benjamin that day twenty-five thousand one hundred men. All these drew the sword.
Ubangiji kuwa ya fatattake mutanen Benyamin a gaban Isra’ila; a ranar kuwa Isra’ilawa sun kashe mutum 25,100 na mutanen Benyamin, dukansu ɗauke da takuba.
36 So the children of Benjamin saw that they were struck, for the men of Israel yielded to Benjamin because they trusted the ambushers whom they had set against Gibeah.
Sa’an nan Benyamin suka ga an ci su. To, mutanen Isra’ila sun yi ta ja da baya daga mutanen Benyamin domin suna dogara ga waɗanda sa su yi kwanto kusa da Gibeya ne.
37 The ambushers hurried, and rushed on Gibeah; then the ambushers spread out, and struck all the city with the edge of the sword.
Mutanen da suke kwanto suka yi wuf suka ruga cikin Gibeya, suka bazu suka kuma karkashe dukan waɗanda suke a birnin.
38 Now the appointed sign between the men of Israel and the ambushers was that they should make a great cloud of smoke rise up out of the city.
Mutanen Isra’ila sun riga sun shirya da’yan kwanton cewa su murtuke hayaƙi daga birnin,
39 The men of Israel turned in the battle, and Benjamin began to strike and kill of the men of Israel about thirty persons; for they said, “Surely they are struck down before us, as in the first battle.”
a sa’an nan ne mutanen Isra’ila za su juya su fāɗa wa mutane Benyamin da yaƙi. Mutanen Benyamin sun fara karkashe mutum talatin na Isra’ila, sai suka ce, “Muna cin nasara a kansu kamar dā.”
40 But when the cloud began to arise up out of the city in a pillar of smoke, the Benjamites looked behind them; and behold, the whole city went up in smoke to the sky.
Amma da alamar hayaƙi ya fara murtukewa daga birnin, sai mutanen Benyamin suka juya suka ga hayaƙi yana murtukewa ko’ina a cikin birnin zuwa sararin sama.
41 The men of Israel turned, and the men of Benjamin were dismayed; for they saw that disaster had come on them.
Sa’an nan mutanen Isra’ila suka juyo musu, mutanen Benyamin kuwa suka tsorata domin sun gane masifa ta zo musu.
42 Therefore they turned their backs before the men of Israel to the way of the wilderness, but the battle followed hard after them; and those who came out of the cities destroyed them in the middle of it.
Saboda haka suka tsere a gaban Isra’ila zuwa wajen hamada, amma ba su iya tsere wa yaƙin ba. Mutanen Isra’ila da suka fito daga cikin birnin suka karkashe su a can.
43 They surrounded the Benjamites, chased them, and trod them down at their resting place, as far as near Gibeah toward the sunrise.
Suka kewaye mutanen Benyamin, suka kore su, suka fatattake su a wajajen Gibeya a gabashi.
44 Eighteen thousand men of Benjamin fell; all these were men of valor.
Mutum dubu goma sha takwas na mutanen Benyamin suka mutu dukansu kuwa jarumai ne.
45 They turned and fled toward the wilderness to the rock of Rimmon. They gleaned five thousand men of them in the highways, and followed hard after them to Gidom, and struck two thousand men of them.
Da suka juya suka juya suka tsere zuwa wajajen hamada zuwa dutsen Rimmon, Isra’ilawa suka kashe mutum dubu biyar a kan hanyoyi. Suka yi ta matsa wa mutanen Benyamin har zuwa Gidom suka kashe mutum dubu biyu kuma.
46 So that all who fell that day of Benjamin were twenty-five thousand men who drew the sword. All these were men of valor.
A ranar kuwa mutanen Benyamin dubu ashirin da biyar ne aka kashe, dukansu jarumai.
47 But six hundred men turned and fled toward the wilderness to the rock of Rimmon, and stayed in the rock of Rimmon four months.
Amma mutane ɗari shida suka juya suka tsere wajajen hamada zuwa dutsen Rimmon, inda suka zauna wata huɗu.
48 The men of Israel turned again on the children of Benjamin, and struck them with the edge of the sword—including the entire city, the livestock, and all that they found. Moreover they set all the cities which they found on fire.
Mutanen Isra’ila suka koma wurin mutanen Benyamin suka kashe dukan waɗanda suke a birnin, tare da dabbobi da kome da suka samu. Dukan garuruwan da suka samu sun ƙone su ƙaf.
