< Judges 18 >

1 In tho daies was no kyng in Israel; and the lynage of Dan souyte possessioun to it silf, to dwelle ther ynne; for `til to that dai it hadde not take eritage among other lynagis.
To, a kwanakin nan Isra’ila ba ta da sarki. A kwanakin kuwa zuriyar Dan tana neman wurinsu na zama, gama ba su riga sun sami gādo tare da kabilan Isra’ila ba.
2 Therfor the sones of Dan senten fyue the strongeste men of her generacioun and meynee fro Saraa and Escahol, that thei schulden aspie the lond, and biholde diligentli. And thei seiden to hem, Go ye, and biholde the lond. And whanne thei goynge hadden come in to the hil of Effraym, and hadden entrid in to the hows of Mycha, thei restiden there.
Saboda haka mutanen Dan suka aika jarumawa guda biyar daga Zora da Eshtawol don su leƙi asirin ƙasar su kuma bincike ta. Waɗannan mutanen sun wakilci dukan kabilar. Suka ce musu, “Ku je, ku bincike ƙasar.” Mutanen suka shiga ƙasar tudu ta Efraim suka zo gidan Mika, inda suka kwana.
3 And thei knewen the voys of the yong wexynge dekene; and thei restiden in `the yn of hym, and seiden to hym, Who brouyte thee hidur? What doist thou here? For what cause woldist thou come hidur?
Sa’ad da suka yi kusa da gidan Mika, sai suka gane muryar saurayin nan Balawe; saboda haka suka shiga wurin suka tambaye shi, “Wa ya kawo ka nan? Me kake yi a nan? Me ya sa kake a nan?”
4 Which answeride `to hem, Mychas yaf to me these and these thingis, and hiride me for meede, that Y be preest to hym.
Ya gaya musu abin da Mika ya faɗa masa ya ce, “Ya ɗauke ni aiki ya kuma sa in zama masa firist.”
5 Forsothe thei preieden hym, that he schulde counsele the Lord, and thei myyten wite, whether thei yeden in weie of prosperite, and the thing schulde haue effect.
Sa’an nan suka ce masa, “Muna roƙonka ka nemi mana nufin Allah don mu sani ko tafiyarmu tana da nasara.”
6 Which answeride to hem, Go ye with pees, the Lord biholdith youre weie, and the iourney whidur ye goon.
Firist ya amsa ya ce, “Ku sauka lafiya, gama tafiyarku tana da yardan Ubangiji.”
7 Therfor the fyue men yeden, and camen to Lachys; and thei siyen the puple dwellynge ther ynne with outen ony drede, bi the custom of Sidonyis, sikur and resteful, for no man outirli ayenstood hem, and `of grete richessis, and fer fro Sidon, and departid fro alle men.
Saboda haka mutum biyar ɗin suka tashi suka iso Layish, inda suka ga mutane suna zamansu a huce, kamar Sidoniyawa, ba sa zato ga tsaro. Kuma da yake ƙasarsu ba ta bukata kome, suna da wadata. Suna kuma nesa da Sidoniyawa, ba sa kuma hulɗa da kowa.
8 And thei turneden ayen to her britheren in Saraa and Escahol; and thei answeriden to `britheren axynge what thei hadden do,
Da suka komo Zora da Eshtawol,’yan’uwansu suka tambaye su, “Me kuka gano?”
9 Rise ye, and stie we to hem, for we siyen the lond ful riche and plenteuous; nyle ye be necgligent, nil ye ceesse, go we, and haue it in possessioun;
Suka ce, “Ku zo mu yaƙe su! Mun ga ƙasar tana da kyau sosai. Ba za ku yi wani abu ba? Kada ku yi wata-wata, ku je kun mallaki ƙasar.
10 no trauel schal be; we schulen entre to sikir men, in to a largeste cuntrey; and the Lord schal bitake to vs a place, wher ynne is not pouert of ony thing of tho that ben brouyt forth in erthe.
Sa’ad da kun kai can, za ku iske mutanen suna zama a sake, ƙasar kuwa mai faɗi ce wadda Allah ya sa a hannuwanku, ƙasar da ba tă rasa kome ba.”
11 Therfor sixe hundrid men gird with armeris of batel yeden forth `of the kynrede of Dan, that is, fro Saraa and Escahol.
Sai mutane ɗari shida daga kabilar Dan suka yi ɗamarar yaƙi, suka tashi daga Zora da Eshtawol.
12 And thei stieden, and dwelliden in Cariathiarym of Juda, which place took fro that tyme the name of Castels of Dan, and is bihyndis the bak of Cariathiarym.
A kan hanyarsu suka kafa sansani kusa da Kiriyat Yeyarim a Yahuda. Shi ya sa a ana kira wurin nan yamma da Kiriyat Yeyarim Mahane Dan har wa yau.
13 Fro thennus thei passiden in to the hil of Effraym; and whanne thei hadden come to the hows of Mychas, the fyue men,
Daga can suka tafi ƙasar tudu ta Efraim suka zo gidan Mika.
14 that weren sent bifore to biholde the lond of Lachis, seiden to her other britheren, Ye knowen, that ephod, and theraphyn, and a grauun ymage and yotun is in these housis; se ye what plesith you.
Sa’an nan mutum biyar ɗin nan da suka leƙi asirin ƙasar Layish suka ce wa’yan’uwansu, “Kun san cewa ɗaya daga cikin gidajen nan yana da efod, waɗansu allolin iyali, siffar da aka sassaƙa da kuma gunki na zubi? To, kun san abin da za ku yi.”
15 And whanne thei hadden bowid a litil, thei entriden in to the hows of the yong dekene, that was in the hows of Mychas, and thei gretten hym with pesible wordis.
Saboda haka suka juya a wurin suka shiga gidan saurayin nan Balawe a wajen Mika suka gaishe shi.
16 Forsothe sixe hundrid men stoden bifore the dore, so as thei weren armed. And thei, that entriden in to the `hows of the yong man, enforsiden to take awey the grauun ymage, and the ephod, and theraphin, and the yotun ymage; and the preest stood bifore the dore,
Mutanen Dan ɗari shida da suka sha ɗamarar yaƙi suka tsaya a bakin ƙofa.
17 while sixe hundrid strongeste men abideden not fer.
Sai mutum biyar da suka leƙi asirin ƙasar suka shiga ciki suka ɗauke gunkin da aka sassaƙa, efod, sauran allolin gida da kuma gunki na zubi yayinda firist ɗin tare da mutane ɗari shida da suka yi ɗamarar yaƙi suna tsaye a bakin ƙofa.
18 Therfor thei that entriden token the grauun ymage, ephod, and idols, and the yotun ymage; to whiche the preest seide, What doen ye?
Sa’ad da waɗannan mutane suka shiga gidan Mika suka ɗauke gunkin da aka sassaƙa, efod, sauran allolin gida da kuma gunki na zubi, sai firist ya ce musu, “Me kuke yi?”
19 To whom thei answeriden, Be thou stille, and putte the fyngur on thi mouth, and come with vs, that we haue thee fadir and preest. What is betere to thee, that thou be preest in the hows of o man, whether in o lynage and meynee in Israel?
Suka ce, “Ka yi shiru! Kada ka ce wani abu. Zo tare da mu, ka zama mahaifinmu da kuma firist. Bai fi maka ka yi wa kabila da kuma zuriya a Isra’ila aikin firist ba, da ka bauta wa iyali guda kawai?”
20 And whanne he hadde herd this, he assentide to `the wordis of hem, and he took the ephod, and ydols, and the grauun ymage, and yede forth with hem.
Sai firist ya yi farin ciki. Ya ɗauki efod, sauran allolin gida da siffar da aka sassaƙa ya tafi tare da mutanen.
21 And whanne thei yeden, and hadden maad the litle children, and werk beestis, and al thing that was preciouse, to go bifor hem;
Suka sa’ya’yansu ƙanana a gaba, dabbobinsu da mallakansu a gabansu, suka juya suka tafi.
22 and whanne thei weren now fer fro `the hows of Mychas, men that dwelliden in the housis of Mychas, crieden togidere, and sueden,
Sa’ad da suka yi ɗan nisa daga gidan Mika, sai aka kira mutanen da suke maƙwabtakar da Mika suka taru suka bi mutanen Dan suka cim musu.
23 and bigunnun to crye `aftir the bak. Whiche whanne thei hadden biholde, seiden to Mychas, What wolt thou to thee? whi criest thou?
Da suna ihu suna binsu, sai mutanen Dan suka waiga suka cewa Mika, “Mece ce damuwarka da ka kira mutanenka su zo su fāɗa mana?”
24 Which answeride, Ye han take awey my goddis whiche Y made to me, and the preest, and alle thingis whiche Y haue; and ye seien, What is to thee?
Ya amsa ya ce, “Kun kwashe allolin da na yi, da kuma firist nawa, kuka tafi. Me kuma nake da shi? Yaya za ku ce, ‘Mece ce damuwata?’”
25 And the sones of Dan seiden to hym, Be war, lest thou speke more to vs, and men styrid in soule come to thee, and thou perische with al thin hows.
Mutanen Dan suka ce, “Kada ka kuskura ka ce kome, in ba haka ba mutanen nan za su harzuƙa, da kai da iyalinka duka ku rasa rayukanku.”
26 And so thei yeden forth in the iourney bigunnun. Forsothe Mychas siy, that thei weren strongere than he, and turnede ayen in to his hows.
Saboda haka mutanen Dan suka kama hanyarsu, Mika kuwa da ya ga an fi ƙarfinsa, sai ya juya ya koma gida.
27 Forsothe sixe hundrid men token the preest, and the thingis whiche we biforseiden, and camen in to Lachis to the puple restynge and sikur; and thei smytiden hem bi the scharpnesse of swerd, and bitoken the citee to brennyng,
Sa’an nan suka ɗauko abin da Mika ya yi, da firist nasa, suka tafi Layish, suka fāɗa wa mutanen da suke zaman lafiya, ransu kuma a kwance. Suka fāɗa musu suka kuma ƙone birninsu.
28 while no man outirli yaf help, for thei dwelliden fer fro Sydon, and hadden not ony thing of felouschipe and cause with ony of men. Forsothe the citee was set in the cuntrei of Roob; which citee thei bildiden eft, and dwelliden ther ynne;
Ba wanda zai cece su domin suna nesa da Bet-Sidon kuma ba sa hulɗa da kowa. Birnin yana a kwari kusa da Bet-Rekob. Mutanen Dan suka sāke gina birnin suka zauna a can.
29 while the name of the citee was clepid Dan, bi the name of her fadir, whom Israel hadde gendrid, which citee was seid Lachis bifore.
Suka sa wa birnin suna Dan, wato, sunan kakansu Dan, wanda aka haifa wa Isra’ila, ko da yake a dā ana kira birnin Layish.
30 And `thei settiden there the grauun ymage, and Jonathas, sone of Jerson, sone of Moises, and `Jonathas sones, preestis, in the lynage of Dan, til in to the dai of her caitifte.
A can mutanen Dan suka kafa wa kansu gumaka, Yonatan ɗan Gershom, ɗan Musa, da’ya’yansa maza firistoci ne na kabilar Dan har lokacin da aka kwashe mutane zuwa bauta.
31 And the idol of Mychas dwellide at hem, in al the tyme `in which the hows of God was in Silo. In tho daies was no kyng in Israel.
Suka ci gaba da amfani da gumakan da Mika ya yi, a duk wannan lokacin gidan Allah yana a Shilo.
