Judges 11
1 And Jephthah the Gileadite hath been a mighty man of valour, and he [is] son of a woman, a harlot; and Gilead begetteth Jephthah,
Yefta mutumin Gileyad, jarumi ne ƙwarai. Mahaifinsa ne Gileyad; mahaifiyar kuwa karuwa ce.
2 and the wife of Gilead beareth to him sons, and the wife's sons grow up and cast out Jephthah, and say to him, 'Thou dost not inherit in the house of our father; for son of another woman [art] thou.'
Matar Gileyad ta haifa masa’ya’ya maza, kuma sa’ad da suka yi girma, sai suka kore Yefta, suka ce “Ba ka da gādo a cikin iyalinmu, domin kai ɗan wata mace ce.”
3 And Jephthah fleeth from the face of his brethren, and dwelleth in the land of Tob; and vain men gather themselves together unto Jephthah, and they go out with him.
Saboda haka Yefta ya tsere daga’yan’uwansa ya zauna a ƙasar Tob, inda waɗansu’yan iska suka kewaye shi suka bi shi.
4 And it cometh to pass, after a time, that the Bene-Ammon fight with Israel,
Ana nan, sa’ad da Ammonawa suka kai wa Isra’ilawa hari,
5 and it cometh to pass, when the Bene-Ammon have fought with Israel, that the elders of Gilead go to take Jephthah from the land of Tob;
dattawan Gileyad suka je suka nemo Yefta daga ƙasar Tob.
6 and they say unto Jephthah, 'Come, and thou hast been to us for captain, and we fight against the Bene-Ammon.'
Suka ce masa, “Ka zo ka zama mana shugaba, don mu yaƙi Ammonawa.”
7 And Jephthah saith to the elders of Gilead, 'Have not ye hated me? and ye cast me out from the house of my father, and wherefore have ye come unto me now when ye are in distress?'
Yefta ya ce musu, “Ba kun ƙi ni kuka kuma kore ni daga gidan mahaifina ba? Me ya sa kuke zuwa wurina yanzu sa’ad da kuke cikin wahala?”
8 and the elders of Gilead say unto Jephthah, 'Therefore, now, we have turned back unto thee; and thou hast gone with us, and fought against the Bene-Ammon, and thou hast been to us for head — to all the inhabitants of Gilead.'
Mutanen Gileyad suka ce masa, “Duk da haka, muna juyo wajenka yanzu, ka zo tare da mu mu yaƙi Ammonawa, za ka kuma zama shugaban duk wanda yake zama a Gileyad.”
9 And Jephthah saith unto the elders of Gilead, 'If ye are taking me back to fight against the Bene-Ammon, and Jehovah hath given them before me — I, am I to you for a head?'
Yefta ya ce, “A ce kun dawo da ni in yaƙi Ammonawa, Ubangiji kuwa ya ba da su a hannuna, zan zama shugabanku?”
10 And the elders of Gilead say unto Jephthah, 'Jehovah is hearkening between us — if according to thy word we do not so.'
Dattawan Gileyad suka ce, “Ubangiji ne shaidanmu; za mu yi duk abin da ka ce.”
11 And Jephthah goeth with the elders of Gilead, and the people set him over them for head and for captain, and Jephthah speaketh all his words before Jehovah in Mizpeh.
Saboda haka Yefta ya tafi tare da dattawan Gileyad, mutanen kuwa suka naɗa shi shugabansu da kuma sarkinsu. Ya kuwa maimaita dukan maganarsa a gaban Ubangiji a Mizfa.
12 And Jephthah sendeth messengers unto the king of the Bene-Ammon, saying, 'What — to me and to thee, that thou hast come in unto me, to fight in my land.'
Sa’an nan Yefta ya aiki jakadu zuwa wurin sarkin Ammonawa su tambaya, “Me ya haɗa ka da ni, da ka kawo wa ƙasata yaƙi?”
13 And the king of the Bene-Ammon saith unto the messengers of Jephthah, 'Because Israel took my land in his coming up out of Egypt, from Arnon, and unto the Jabbok, and unto the Jordan; and now, restore them in peace.'
Sarkin Ammonawa ya ce wa jakadu, “Sa’ad da Isra’ilawa suka fito daga Masar, sun ƙwace mini ƙasa tun daga Arnon zuwa Yabbok, har zuwa Urdun. Yanzu ka mayar mini ita cikin salama.”
14 And Jephthah addeth yet and sendeth messengers unto the king of the Bene-Ammon,
Yefta ya sāke aikan jakadu wurin sarki,
15 and saith to him, 'Thus said Jephthah, Israel took not the land of Moab, and the land of the Bene-Ammon,
yana cewa, “Ga abin da Yefta yake faɗi, Isra’ila ba tă ƙwace ƙasar Mowab ko ta Ammonawa ba.
16 for in their coming up out of Egypt, Israel goeth in the wilderness unto the Red Sea, and cometh in to Kadesh,
Amma sa’ad da suka bar Masar, Isra’ila ta bi ta hamada zuwa Jan Teku har suka zo Kadesh.
17 and Israel sendeth messengers unto the king of Edom, saying, Let me pass over, I pray thee, through thy land, and the king of Edom hearkened not; and also unto the king of Moab hath [Israel] sent, and he hath not been willing; and Israel abideth in Kadesh,
Sa’an nan Isra’ila ta aiki jakadu zuwa ga sarkin Edom cewa, ‘Ka ba mu izini mu ratsa ƙasarka,’ amma sarkin Edom bai saurara ba. Suka kuma aika wa sarkin Mowab, shi ma ya ƙi. Saboda haka Isra’ila ta zauna a Kadesh.
18 and he goeth through the wilderness, and compasseth the land of Edom and the land of Moab, and cometh in at the rising of the sun of the land of Moab, and they encamp beyond Arnon, and have not come into the border of Moab, for Arnon [is] the border of Moab.
“Daga can suka ci gaba ta hamada, suka zaga ƙasashen Edom da Mowab, suka wuce ta gabashin ƙasar Mowab, sa’an nan suka yi sansani a ɗaya gefen Arnon. Ba su shiga yankin Mowab ba, gama Arnon ce iyakarta.
19 'And Israel sendeth messengers unto Sihon, king of the Amorite, king of Heshbon, and Israel saith to him, Let us pass over, we pray thee, through thy land, unto my place,
“Sa’an nan Isra’ila ta aiki jakadu zuwa ga Sihon sarkin Amoriyawa, wanda yake mulki a Heshbon, ta ce masa, ‘Ka bar mu mu ratsa ƙasarka mu wuce zuwa wurinmu.’
20 and Sihon hath not trusted Israel to pass over through his border, and Sihon gathereth all his people, and they encamp in Jahaz, and fight with Israel;
Sihon dai, bai amince da Isra’ila su ratsa ƙasarsa ba. Ya tattara dukan mutanensa suka yi sansani a Yahza suka kuwa yaƙi Isra’ila.
21 and Jehovah, God of Israel, giveth Sihon and all his people into the hand of Israel, and they smite them, and Israel possesseth all the land of the Amorite, the inhabitant of that land,
“Sa’an nan Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila, ya ba da Sihon da dukan mutanensa a hannun Isra’ila, suka kuwa ci nasara a kansu. Isra’ila ta ƙwace dukan ƙasar Amoriyawa da suke zaune a ƙasar,
22 and they possess all the border of the Amorite from Arnon, and unto the Jabbok, and from the wilderness, and unto the Jordan.
suka ƙwace dukan yankin Amoriyawa tun daga ƙasar Arnon zuwa Yabbok, daga hamada har zuwa Urdun.
23 'And now, Jehovah, God of Israel, hath dispossessed the Amorite from the presence of His people Israel, and thou wouldest possess it!
“To, da yake Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila, ya kori Amoriyawa a gaban mutanensa Isra’ila, wane’yanci kake da shi da za ka karɓe ta?
24 That which Chemosh thy god causeth thee to possess — dost thou not possess it? and all that which Jehovah our God hath dispossessed from our presence, — it we do possess.
Ba za ka karɓi abin da allahnka Kemosh ya ba ka ba? Haka mu ma, duk abin da Ubangiji Allahnmu ya riga ya ba mu, za mu mallake shi.
25 'And now, [art] thou at all better than Balak son of Zippor, king of Moab? did he at all strive with Israel? did he at all fight against them?
Ka fi Balak ɗan Ziffor, sarkin Mowab ne? Ka taɓa ji ya yi hamayya da Isra’ila ko yă yi yaƙi da su?
26 In Israel's dwelling in Heshbon and in its towns, and in Aroer and in its towns, and in all the cities which [are] by the sides of Arnon three hundred years — and wherefore have ye not delivered them in that time?
Shekara ɗari uku Isra’ilawa suka yi zamansu a Heshbon, Arower da ƙauyukan kewayenta da dukan biranen da suke gefen Arnon. Me ya sa ba ka karɓe su a lokacin ba?
27 And I — I have not sinned against thee, and thou art doing with me evil — to fight against me. Jehovah, the Judge, doth judge to-day between the sons of Israel and the sons of Ammon.'
Ban yi maka laifi ba, amma kana musguna mini ta wurin kawo mini hari. Bari Ubangiji yă zama Alƙali, yă yanke hukunci tsakani Isra’ilawa da Ammonawa.”
28 And the king of the Bene-Ammon hath not hearkened unto the words of Jephthah which he sent unto him,
Duk da haka sarkin Ammonawa bai kula da saƙon da Yefta ya aika ba.
29 and the Spirit of Jehovah is on Jephthah, and he passeth over Gilead and Manasseh, and passeth over Mizpeh of Gilead, and from Mizpeh of Gilead he hath passed over to the Bene-Ammon.
Sa’an nan Ruhun Ubangiji ya sauko wa Yefta. Sai ya haye Gileyad da Manasse, ya ratsa ta Mizfa zuwa Gileyad, daga can kuma ya kai wa Ammonawa hari.
30 And Jephthah voweth a vow to Jehovah, and saith, 'If Thou dost at all give the Bene-Ammon into my hand —
Yefta kuwa ya yi wa’adi da Ubangiji ya ce, “In ka ba da Ammonawa a hannuwana,
31 then it hath been, that which at all cometh out from the doors of my house to meet me in my turning back in peace from the Bene-Ammon — it hath been to Jehovah, or I have offered up for it — a burnt-offering.'
duk abin da ya fara fitowa daga ƙofar gidana don yă tarye ni, sa’ad da na komo daga yaƙi da Ammonawa, zai zama na Ubangiji, zan miƙa shi hadaya ta ƙonawa.”
32 And Jephthah passeth over unto the Bene-Ammon to fight against them, and Jehovah giveth them into his hand,
Sa’an nan Yefta ya haye zuwa wajen Ammonawa don yaƙi da su. Ubangiji kuwa ya ba da su a hannuwansa.
33 and he smiteth them from Aroer, and unto thy going in to Minnith, twenty cities, and unto the meadow of the vineyards — a very great smiting; and the Bene-Ammon are humbled at the presence of the sons of Israel.
Ya hallaka birane ashirin tun daga Arower zuwa yankin Minnit, har zuwa Abel-Keramim. Haka Isra’ila ta cinye Ammonawa ƙaf.
34 And Jephthah cometh into Mizpeh, unto his house, and lo, his daughter is coming out to meet him with timbrels, and with choruses, and save her alone, he hath none, son or daughter.
Sa’ad da Yefta ya komo gida a Mizfa, wa ya fito yă tarye shi,’yarsa tilo, tana rawa kiɗin ganguna! Ita ce kaɗai’yarsa. Ban da ita ba shi da ɗa ko’ya.
35 And it cometh to pass, when he seeth her, that he rendeth his garments, and saith, 'Alas, my daughter, thou hast caused me greatly to bend, and thou hast been among those troubling me; and I — I have opened my mouth unto Jehovah, and I am not able to turn back.'
Da ya gan ta, sai ya yayyage tufafinsa ya yi kuka ya ce, “Kaito!’Yata! Kin karya mini gwiwa, kuma na lalace, domin na yi wa’adi ga Ubangiji da ba zan iya in karya ba.”
36 And she saith unto him, 'My father — thou hast opened thy mouth unto Jehovah, do to me as it hath gone out from thy mouth, after that Jehovah hath done for thee vengeance on thine enemies, on the Bene-Ammon.'
Ta ce, “Mahaifina, idan ka riga ka yi wa Ubangiji magana, sai ka yi da ni yadda ka yi alkawari, da yake Ubangiji ya ɗau maka fansa a kan Ammonawa.”
37 And she saith unto her father, 'Let this thing be done to me; desist from me two months, and I go on, and have gone down on the hills, and I weep for my virginity — I and my friends.'
Sai ta kuma ce, “Sai dai, ka biya mini wannan bukata guda. Ka ba ni wata biyu in yi ta yawo da ni da ƙawayena a kan duwatsu mu yi makoki, domin ba zan yi aure ba.”
38 And he saith, 'Go;' and he sendeth her away two months, and she goeth, she and her friends, and she weepeth for her virginity on the hills;
Ya ce mata, “Ki tafi,” Ya bar ta tă tafi har wata biyu. Ita da’yan matan suka tafi a kan duwatsu suka yi ta makoki domin ba za tă taɓa aure ba.
39 and it cometh to pass at the end of two months that she turneth back unto her father, and he doth to her his vow which he hath vowed, and she knew not a man; and it is a statute in Israel:
Bayan watanni biyu ɗin sai ta komo wurin mahaifinta ya kuwa yi da ita yadda ya yi wa’adi. Ita kuwa ba tă taɓa san namiji ba. Wannan ya zama al’ada a Isra’ila,
40 from time to time the daughters of Israel go to talk to the daughter of Jephthah the Gileadite, four days in a year.
cewa kowace shekara’yan mata sukan fita kwana huɗu don yin bikin tunawa da’yar Yefta mutumin Gileyad.
