1 Samuel 7

1 And the men of Kirjath-Jearim come and bring up the ark of Jehovah, and bring it in unto the house of Abinadab, in the height, and Eleazar his son they have sanctified to keep the ark of Jehovah.

Mutanen Kiriyat Yeyarim suka ɗauki akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji. Suka kai a gidan Abinadab da ke kan tudu, suka keɓe Eleyazar ɗansa yă lura da akwatin alkawarin Ubangiji.

2 And it cometh to pass, from the day of the dwelling of the ark in Kirjath-Jearim, that the days are multiplied — yea, they are twenty years — and wail do all the house of Israel after Jehovah.

Akwatin Alkawarin ya daɗe a Kiriyat Yeyarim ya kai shekara ashirin cif. Sai dukan mutanen Isra’ila suka yi makoki suka nemi Ubangiji.

3 And Samuel speaketh unto all the house of Israel, saying, 'If with all your heart ye are turning back unto Jehovah — turn aside the gods of the stranger from your midst, and Ashtaroth; and prepare your heart unto Jehovah, and serve Him only, and He doth deliver you out of the hand of the Philistines.'

Saboda haka Sama’ila ya yi magana da dukan gidan Isra’ila ya ce, in har da zuciya ɗaya kuke juyowa ga Ubangiji sai ku raba kanku da baƙin alloli da gunkin nan Ashtarot, ku ba da kanku ga Ubangiji. Ku yi masa bauta shi kaɗai, zai kuɓutar da ku daga hannun Filistiyawa.

4 And the sons of Israel turn aside the Baalim and Ashtaroth, and serve Jehovah alone;

Sai Isra’ilawa suka rabu da gumakan Ba’al da Ashtarot suka bauta wa Ubangiji kaɗai.

5 and Samuel saith, 'Gather all Israel to Mizpeh, and I pray for you unto Jehovah.'

Sama’ila ya ce, “Ku tattara dukan Isra’ila a Mizfa, ni kuwa zan yi addu’a ga Ubangiji dominku.”

6 And they are gathered to Mizpeh, and draw water, and pour out before Jehovah, and fast on that day, and say there, 'We have sinned against Jehovah;' and Samuel judgeth the sons of Israel in Mizpeh.

Sa’ad da suka taru a Mizfa, suka kawo ruwa suka zuba a gaban Ubangiji. A wannan rana suka yi azumi suka tuba, suka ce, “Mun yi wa Ubangiji zunubi!” Sama’ila kuwa ya zauna a Mizfa ya yi mulkin Isra’ilawa.

7 And the Philistines hear that the sons of Israel have gathered themselves to Mizpeh; and the princes of the Philistines go up against Israel, and the sons of Israel hear, and are afraid of the presence of the Philistines.

Da Filistiyawa suka ji cewa Isra’ila sun taru a Mizfa, sai shugabanninsu suka zo don su yaƙe Isra’ila. Da Isra’ilawa suka ji labarin, sai suka tsorata saboda Filistiyawa.

8 And the sons of Israel say unto Samuel, 'Keep not silent for us from crying unto Jehovah our God, and He doth save us out of the hand of the Philistines.'

Suka ce wa Sama’ila, “Kada ka fasa kai kukanmu ga Ubangiji Allahnmu saboda mu, don yă cece mu daga hannun Filistiyawa.”

9 And Samuel taketh a fat lamb, and causeth it to go up — a burnt-offering whole to Jehovah; and Samuel crieth unto Jehovah for Israel, and Jehovah answereth him;

Sama’ila ya kama ɗan rago ya miƙa shi ɗungum hadaya ta ƙonawa ga Ubangiji. Ya yi roƙo ga Ubangiji a madadin Isra’ila, Ubangiji kuwa ya amsa addu’arsa.

10 and Samuel is causing the burnt-offering to go up — and the Philistines have drawn nigh to battle against Israel — and Jehovah doth thunder with a great noise, on that day, upon the Philistines, and troubleth them, and they are smitten before Israel.

Lokacin da Sama’ila yana miƙa hadaya ta ƙonawa, Filistiyawa suka matso kusa don su yi yaƙi da Isra’ila. A ranar Ubangiji ya sa babban tsawa ya ruɗar da Filistiyawa har suka gudu a gaban Isra’ilawa.

11 And the men of Israel go out from Mizpeh, and pursue the Philistines, and smite them unto the place of Beth-Car.

Isra’ilawa suka fito a guje daga Mizfa suka fafari Filistiyawa suka yi ta karkashe su a hanya har kwarin Bet-Kar.

12 And Samuel taketh a stone, and setteth [it] between Mizpeh and Shen, and calleth its name Eben-Ezer, saying, 'Hitherto hath Jehovah helped us.'

Sa’an nan Sama’ila ya ɗauki dutse ya kafa tsakanin Mizfa da Shen, ya sa masa suna, Ebenezer ma’ana, “Har zuwa wannan lokaci Ubangiji ya taimake mu.”

13 And the Philistines are humbled, and have not added any more to come into the border of Israel, and the hand of Jehovah is on the Philistines all the days of Samuel.

Ta haka Isra’ilawa suka ci Filistiyawa. Daga ranan Filistiyawa ba su ƙara yin nasara a kan Isra’ila ba. Ubangiji ya yi gāba da Filistiyawa har ƙarshen zamanin Sama’ila.

14 And the cities which the Philistines have taken from Israel are restored to Israel — from Ekron even unto Gath — and their border hath Israel delivered out of the hand of the Philistines; and there is peace between Israel and the Amorite.

Filistiyawa suka mayar wa Isra’ila da garuruwan da suka ƙwato, wato, daga Ekron zuwa Gat, dukan yankin ƙasarsu da yake ƙarƙashin ikon Filistiyawa. Aka kuma sami zaman lafiya tsakanin Isra’ilawa da Amoriyawa.

15 And Samuel judgeth Israel all the days of his life,

Sama’ila kuwa ya ci gaba da mulkin Isra’ila dukan rayuwarsa.

16 and he hath gone from year to year, and gone round Beth-El, and Gilgal, and Mizpeh, and judged Israel [in] all these places;

Shekara-shekara Sama’ila yakan fita rangadi zuwa Betel, da Gilgal da Mizfa inda yakan yi musu shari’a.

17 and his returning [is] to Ramath, for there [is] his house, and there he hath judged Israel, and he buildeth there an altar to Jehovah.

Amma yakan komo Rama inda gidansa yake, a nan yakan yi wa Isra’ila shari’a. A nan ne kuma ya gina wa Ubangiji bagade.
