1 To, fa, Filistiyawa suka yi yaƙi da Isra’ilawa; Isra’ilawa kuwa suka gudu a gabansu, da yawa kuma suka mutu a kan Dutsen Gilbowa.
Now the Philistines were fighting against Israel; and the men of Israel went in flight before the Philistines, falling down wounded in Mount Gilboa.
2 Filistiyawa suka matsa sosai suna bin Shawulu da’ya’yansa maza, suka kuma kashe’ya’yansa maza Yonatan, Abinadab da Malki-Shuwa.
And the Philistines went hard after Saul and his sons, and put to death Jonathan and Abinadab and Malchi-shua, the sons of Saul.
3 Yaƙin ya yi tsanani kewaye da Shawulu, kuma sa’ad da maharba suka rutsa shi, sai suka ji masa rauni.
And the fight was going against Saul, and the archers came across him, and he was wounded by the archers.
4 Sai Shawulu ya ce wa mai riƙe masa kayan yaƙi, “Zare takobinka ka soke ni, in ba haka ba waɗannan marasa kaciya za su zo su yi mini ba’a.” Amma mai ɗaukar masa kayan yaƙi ya ji tsoro bai kuwa yi haka ba; saboda haka Shawulu ya zāre takobinsa ya fāɗi a kansa.
Then Saul said to the servant who had the care of his arms, Take your sword and put it through me, before these men without circumcision come and make sport of me. But his servant, full of fear, would not do so. Then Saul took out his sword, falling on it himself.
5 Da mai ɗaukar masa kayan yaƙi ya ga Shawulu ya mutu, sai shi ma ya fāɗi a kan takobinsa ya mutu.
And when his servant saw that Saul was dead, he did the same, and came to his death.
6 Ta haka Shawulu da’ya’yansa maza uku suka mutu, dukan gidansa kuwa suka mutu tare.
So death overtook Saul and his three sons; all his family came to an end together.
7 Sa’ad da dukan Isra’ilawa a cikin kwari suka ga cewa mayaƙansu suna gudu, kuma cewa Shawulu da’ya’yansa maza sun mutu, sai suka bar garuruwansu suka gudu. Filistiyawa kuwa suka zo suka zauna a cikinsu.
And when all the men of Israel who were in the valley saw that the men of Israel had gone in flight and that Saul and his sons were dead, they went in flight away from their towns; and the Philistines came and took them for themselves.
8 Kashegari, da Filistiyawa suka zo don su tuttuɓe waɗanda suka mutu, sai suka sami Shawulu da’ya’yansa maza sun mutu a Dutsen Gilbowa.
Now the day after, when the Philistines came to take their goods from the dead, they saw Saul and his sons dead in Mount Gilboa.
9 Suka tuttuɓe shi suka yanke kansa suka ɗauka duk da kayan yaƙinsa, suka kuma aika’yan aika ko’ina a ƙasar Filistiyawa, a yi shela labarin a cikin gumakansu da kuma mutanensu.
And they took everything off him, and took his head and his war-dress, and sent word into the land of the Philistines round about to give the news to their gods and to the people.
10 Suka sa kayan yaƙinsa a haikalin allahnsu suka kuma rataye kansa a haikalin Dagon.
And they put his war-dress in the house of their gods, and put up his head in the house of Dagon.
11 Sa’ad da mazaunan Yabesh Gileyad suka ji dukan abin da Filistiyawa suka yi wa Shawulu,
And when the news came to Jabesh-gilead of what the Philistines had done to Saul,
12 sai dukan jarumawa suka tafi suka ɗauki jikunan Shawulu da na’ya’yansa maza suka kawo Yabesh. Sa’an nan suka binne ƙasusuwan a ƙarƙashin babban itace oak a Yabesh, suka kuma yi azumi kwana bakwai.
All the fighting-men came up and took away Saul's body and the bodies of his sons, and took them to Jabesh, and put their bones to rest under the oak-tree in Jabesh, and took no food for seven days.
13 Shawulu ya mutu domin rashin aminci ga Ubangiji; bai kiyaye maganar Ubangiji ba, ya ma nemi shawarar mace mai duba,
So death came to Saul because of the sin which he did against the Lord, that is, because of the word of the Lord which he kept not; and because he went for directions to one who had an evil spirit,
14 bai kuwa nemi nufin Ubangiji ba. Saboda haka Ubangiji ya kashe shi, ya miƙa mulkin ga Dawuda ɗan Yesse.
And not to the Lord: for this reason, he put him to death and gave the kingdom to David, the son of Jesse.
