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 fought against Israel, and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell down wounded in mount Gelboe.
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 drew near pursuing after Saul, and his sons, and they killed Jonathan, and Abinadab, and Melchisua 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 battle grew hard against Saul, and the archers reached him, and wounded him with arrows.
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.
And Saul said to his armourbearer: Draw thy sword, and kill me: lest these uncircumcised come, and mock me. But his armourbearer would not, for he was struck with fear: so Saul took his sword, and fell upon it.
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 armourbearer saw it, to wit, that Saul was dead, he also fell upon his sword and died.
6 Ta haka Shawulu da’ya’yansa maza uku suka mutu, dukan gidansa kuwa suka mutu tare.
So Saul died, and his three sons, and all his house fell 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 the men of Israel, that dwelt in the plains, saw this, they fled: and Saul and his sons being dead, they forsook their cities, and were scattered up and down: and the Philistines came, and dwelt in them.
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.
And the next day the Philistines taking away the spoils of them that were slain, found Saul and his sons lying on mount Gelboe.
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 when they had stripped him, and cut off his head, and taken away his armour, they sent it into their land, to be carried about, and shewn in the temples of the idols and to the people.
10 Suka sa kayan yaƙinsa a haikalin allahnsu suka kuma rataye kansa a haikalin Dagon.
And his armour they dedicated in the temple of their god, and his head they fastened up in the temple of Dagon.
11 Sa’ad da mazaunan Yabesh Gileyad suka ji dukan abin da Filistiyawa suka yi wa Shawulu,
And when the men of Jabes Galaad had heard this, to wit, all that 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 valiant men of them arose, and took the bodies of Saul and of his sons, and brought them to Jabes, and buried their bones under the oak that was in Jabes, and they fasted seven days.
13 Shawulu ya mutu domin rashin aminci ga Ubangiji; bai kiyaye maganar Ubangiji ba, ya ma nemi shawarar mace mai duba,
So Saul died for his iniquities, because he transgressed the commandment of the Lord, which he had commanded, and kept it not: and moreover consulted also a witch,
14 bai kuwa nemi nufin Ubangiji ba. Saboda haka Ubangiji ya kashe shi, ya miƙa mulkin ga Dawuda ɗan Yesse.
And trusted not is the Lord: therefore he slew him, and transferred his kingdom to David the son of Isai.
