1 Tarihi 21
1 Sai Shaiɗan ya tashi gāba da Isra’ila, ya zuga Dawuda ya ƙidaya Isra’ila.
Now Satan, designing evil against Israel, put into David's mind the impulse to take the number of Israel.
2 Saboda haka Dawuda ya ce wa Yowab da shugabannin mayaƙa, “Ku tafi ku ƙidaya Isra’ilawa daga Beyersheba zuwa Dan. Ku kawo mini labarin saboda in san su nawa ne.”
And David said to Joab and the captains of the people, Now let all Israel, from Beer-sheba to Dan, be numbered; and give me word so that I may be certain of their number.
3 Amma Yowab ya amsa ya ce, “Ubangiji ya riɓaɓɓanya mayaƙansa fiye da sau ɗari. Ranka yă daɗe sarki, dukansu ba bayin shugabana ba ne? Me ya sa ranka yă daɗe yake so yă yi haka? Me zai sa ka kawo laifi a kan Isra’ila?”
And Joab said, May the Lord make his people a hundred times more in number than they are; but, my lord king, are they not all my lord's servants? why would my lord have this done? why will he become a cause of sin to Israel?
4 Amma sarki ya nace a kan maganar da ya yi wa Yowab. Sai Yowab ya tashi ya tafi cikin dukan Isra’ila, ya kewaye sa’an nan ya dawo Urushalima.
But the king's word was stronger than Joab's. So Joab went out and went through all Israel and came to Jerusalem.
5 Yowab ya ba labarin yawan mayaƙan wa Dawuda. A cikin Isra’ila akwai mutum miliyon da dubu ɗari ɗaya waɗanda za su iya riƙe takobi, haɗe da dubu ɗari huɗu da saba’in a Yahuda.
And Joab gave David the number of all the people; all the men of Israel, able to take up arms, were one million, one hundred thousand men; and those of Judah were four hundred and seventy thousand men, able to take up arms.
6 Amma Yowab bai haɗa da mutanen Lawi da na Benyamin a ƙidayar ba, domin bai ji daɗin umarnin sarki ba.
But Levi and Benjamin were not numbered among them, for Joab was disgusted with the king's order.
7 Wannan umarnin mugu ne a gaban Allah; saboda haka ya hukunta Isra’ila.
And God was not pleased with this thing; so he sent punishment on Israel.
8 Sai Dawuda ya ce wa Allah, “Na yi zunubi ƙwarai ta wurin yin wannan. Yanzu, na roƙe ka, ka ɗauke laifin bawanka. Na yi wauta sosai.”
Then David said to God, Great has been my sin in doing this; but now, be pleased to take away the sin of your servant, for I have done very foolishly.
9 Sai Ubangiji ya ce wa Gad, mai duba na Dawuda,
Then the word of the Lord came to Gad, David's seer, saying,
10 “Tafi ka faɗa wa Dawuda, ‘Ga abin da Ubangiji ya ce ina ba ka abubuwa uku. Ka zaɓi ɗaya daga cikinsu don in aikata a kanka.’”
Go and say to David, The Lord says, Three things are offered to you: say which of them you will have, so that I may do it to you.
11 Saboda haka Gad ya tafi wurin Dawuda ya ce masa, “Ga abin da Ubangiji ya ce, ‘Ka yi zaɓi,
So Gad came to David and said to him, The Lord says, Take whichever you will:
12 shekara uku na yunwa, wata uku na shan ɗibga a gaban abokan gābanka, sa’ad da za su bi suna kakkashe ku, ko kuwa kwana uku na takobin Ubangiji, ranakun annoba a cikin ƙasar, mala’ikan Ubangiji zai hallaka kowane sashe na Isra’ila.’ Yanzu sai ka yanke shawara yadda zan amsa wa wanda ya aiko ni.”
Three years when there will not be enough food; or three months of war, when you will go in flight before your haters, being in great danger of the sword; or three days of the sword of the Lord, disease in the land, and the angel of the Lord taking destruction through all the land of Israel. Now give thought to the answer I am to take back to him who sent me.
13 Dawuda ya ce wa Gad, “Na shiga uku. Bari in fāɗa a hannuwan Ubangiji, gama jinƙansa yana da girma sosai; amma kada ka bari in fāɗa a hannuwan mutane.”
And David said to Gad, This is a hard decision for me to make: let me come into the hands of the Lord, for great are his mercies: let me not come into the hands of men.
14 Sai Ubangiji ya aiko da annoba a kan Isra’ila, mutane duba saba’in na Isra’ila suka mutu.
So the Lord sent disease on Israel, causing the death of seventy thousand men.
15 Allah kuwa ya aiki mala’ika yă hallaka Urushalima. Amma yayinda mala’ikan yana gab da yin haka, sai Ubangiji ya gani ya kuma yi nadama saboda masifar, sai ya ce wa mala’ikan wanda yake hallaka mutane, “Ya isa! Janye hannunka.” Mala’ikan Ubangiji kuwa yana tsaye a masussukar Ornan mutumin Yebus.
And God sent an angel to Jerusalem for its destruction: and when he was about to do so, the Lord saw, and had regret for the evil, and said to the angel of destruction, It is enough; do no more. Now the angel of the Lord was by the grain-floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
16 Sai Dawuda ya ɗaga ido ya ga mala’ikan Ubangiji tsaye tsakanin sama da duniya, da takobi a zāre a hannunsa ya miƙa a kan Urushalima. Sai Dawuda da dattawa, saye da rigunan makoki suka fāɗi rubda jiki.
And David, lifting up his eyes, saw the angel of the Lord there between earth and heaven, with an uncovered sword in his hand stretched out over Jerusalem. Then David and the responsible men, clothed in haircloth, went down on their faces.
17 Dawuda ya ce wa Allah, “Ba ni ba ne na umarta a ƙidaya mayaƙan? Ni ne wanda ya yi zunubin da kuma abin da ba daidai ba. Waɗannan dai tumaki ne. Me suka yi? Ya Ubangiji Allahna, bari hannunka ya fāɗi a kaina da kuma iyalina, amma kada ka bar wannan annoba ya kasance a kan mutanenka.”
And David said to God, Was it not I who gave the order for the people to be numbered? It is I who have done the sin and the great wrong; but these are only sheep; what have they done? let your hand, O Lord God, be lifted up against me and against my family, but not against your people to send disease on them.
18 Sa’an nan mala’ikan Ubangiji ya umarci Gad yă faɗa wa Dawuda yă haura yă gina bagade wa Ubangiji a masussukar Ornan mutumin Yebus.
Then the angel of the Lord gave orders to Gad to say to David that he was to go and put up an altar to the Lord on the grain-floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
19 Saboda haka Dawuda ya haura cikin biyayya ga maganar da Allah ya yi da sunan Ubangiji.
And David went up, as Gad had said in the name of the Lord.
20 Yayinda Ornan yake sussukar alkama, sai ya juya ya ga mala’ika;’ya’yansa maza guda huɗu da suke tare da shi suka ɓuya.
And Ornan, turning back, saw the angel, and his four sons who were with him went to a secret place. Now Ornan was crushing his grain.
21 Sai Dawuda ya kusato, sa’ad da Ornan ya duba sai ya gan shi, ya bar masussukar ya rusuna a gaban Dawuda da fuskarsa har ƙasa.
And when David came, Ornan, looking, saw him, and came out from the grain-floor and went down on his face to the earth before him.
22 Dawuda ya ce wa Ornan, “Ka ba ni masussukarka saboda in gina bagade wa Ubangiji, don annobar da take kan mutane tă daina. Ka sayar mini ita a cikakken kuɗinta.”
Then David said to Ornan, Give me the place where this grain-floor is, so that I may put up an altar here to the Lord: let me have it for its full price; so that this disease may be stopped among the people.
23 Ornan ya ce wa Dawuda, “Ka karɓa! Bari ranka yă daɗe, sarki yă yi duk abin da ya ga ya yi masa kyau. Duba, zan ba da shanu domin hadaya ta ƙonawa, da itacen sussuka, da kuma alkama domin hadaya ta gari. Zan ba da dukan wannan.”
And Ornan said to David, Take it, and let my lord the king do what seems right to him. See, I give you the oxen for burned offerings and the grain-cleaning instruments for fire-wood, and the grain for the meal offering; I give it all.
24 Amma Sarki Dawuda ya amsa wa Ornan ya ce, “A’a, na nace zan biya cikakken kuɗinta. Ba zan karɓi abinka kawai don Ubangiji ba, ko in miƙa hadaya ta ƙonawar da ba tă ci mini wani abu ba.”
And King David said to Ornan, No; I will certainly give you the full price for it, because I will not take for the Lord what is yours, or give a burned offering without payment.
25 Saboda haka Dawuda ya biya Ornan shekel ɗari shida na zinariya saboda wurin.
So David gave Ornan six hundred shekels of gold by weight for the place.
26 Dawuda ya gina bagade wa Ubangiji a can ya kuma miƙa hadayu na ƙonawa da hadayu na salama, Ubangiji kuwa ya amsa masa ta wurin wuta daga sama a kan bagaden hadaya ta ƙonawa.
And David put up an altar there to the Lord, offering burned offerings and peace-offerings with prayers to the Lord; and he gave him an answer from heaven, sending fire on the altar of burned offering.
27 Sa’an nan Ubangiji ya yi magana ga mala’ikan, ya kuma mayar da takobinsa a kube.
Then the Lord gave orders to the angel, and he put back his sword into its cover.
28 A lokacin, sa’ad da Dawuda ya ga cewa Ubangiji ya amsa masa a masussukar Ornan mutumin Yebus, sai ya miƙa hadayu a can.
At that time, when David saw that the Lord had given him an answer on the grain-floor of Ornan the Jebusite, he made an offering there.
29 Tabanakul na Ubangiji da Musa ya yi a hamada, da kuma bagaden hadaya ta ƙonawa a lokacin suna a tudun Gibeyon.
For the House of the Lord, which Moses had made in the waste land, and the altar of burned offerings, were at that time in the high place at Gibeon.
30 Amma Dawuda bai iya zuwa gabansa don yă yi tambaya ga Allah ba, gama yana jin tsoron takobin mala’ikan Ubangiji.
But David was not able to go before it to get directions from the Lord, so great was his fear of the sword of the angel of the Lord.
