< 1 Sarakuna 13 >
1 Bisa ga umarnin Ubangiji, sai wani mutumin Allah ya zo daga Yahuda zuwa Betel, yayinda Yerobowam yake tsaye kusa da bagade don yă miƙa hadaya.
And behold, a man of God has come from Judah, by the word of YHWH, to Beth-El, and Jeroboam is standing by the altar—to make incense;
2 Sai mutumin Allah ya tā da murya a kan bagade bisa ga umarnin Ubangiji ya ce, “Ya bagade, bagade! Ubangiji ya ce, ‘Za a haifi ɗa mai suna Yosiya wa gidan Dawuda. A kanka zai miƙa firistoci na masujadai kan tuddai masu miƙa hadayu a nan, za a kuma ƙone ƙasusuwan mutane a kanka.’”
and he calls against the altar, by the word of YHWH, and says, “Altar! Altar! Thus said YHWH: Behold, a son is born to the house of David—Josiah [is] his name—and he has sacrificed on you the priests of the high places who are making incense on you, and bones of man are burned on you.”
3 A wannan rana mutumin Allah ya ba da alama, “Ga alamar da Ubangiji ya furta. Wannan bagade zai tsage yă rabu kashi biyu, tokar da yake a kansa za tă zuba a ƙasa.”
And he has given a sign on that day, saying, “This [is] the sign that YHWH has spoken, Behold, the altar is torn, and the ashes that [are] on it [are] poured forth.”
4 Sa’ad da Yerobowam ya ji abin da mutumin Allah ya tā da murya ya faɗa game da bagaden Betel, sai ya miƙa hannunsa daga bagaden ya ce, “Ku kama shi!” Amma sai hannun da ya miƙa ya yanƙwane, har bai iya janye shi ba.
And it comes to pass, at the king’s hearing the word of the man of God that he calls against the altar in Beth-El, that Jeroboam puts forth his hand from off the altar, saying, “Catch him”; and his hand that he has put forth against him is dried up, and he is not able to bring it back to himself,
5 Haka ma, bagaden ya rabu, tokarsa kuma ya zuba, bisa ga alamar da mutumin Allah ya bayar, ta wurin kalmar Ubangiji.
and the altar is torn, and the ashes [are] poured forth from the altar, according to the sign that the man of God had given by the word of YHWH.
6 Sai sarki ya ce wa mutumin Allah, “Ka roƙi Ubangiji Allahnka, ka kuma yi addu’a domina don hannuna ya warke.” Saboda haka mutumin Allah ya yi roƙo ga Ubangiji, hannun sarki kuwa ya warke, ya kuma zama kamar yadda yake a dā.
And the king answers and says to the man of God, “Please appease the face of your God YHWH, and pray for me, and my hand comes back to me”; and the man of God appeases the face of YHWH, and the hand of the king comes back to him, and it is as at the beginning.
7 Sai sarki ya ce wa mutumin Allah, “Zo gida tare da ni, ka sami wani abu ka ci, zan kuwa yi maka kyauta.”
And the king speaks to the man of God, “Come in with me to the house, and refresh yourself, and I give a gift to you.”
8 Amma mutumin Allah ya amsa wa sarki, “Ko da za ka ba rabin mallakarka, ba zan tafi tare da kai ba, ba kuwa zan ci abinci, ko in sha ruwa a can ba.
And the man of God says to the king, “If you give to me the half of your house, I do not go in with you, nor do I eat bread, nor do I drink water, in this place;
9 Gama an umarce ni ta wurin kalmar Ubangiji, aka ce, ‘Kada ka ci abinci, ko ka sha ruwa, ko ka koma ta hanyar da ka zo.’”
for so He commanded me by the word of YHWH, saying, You do not eat bread nor drink water, nor return in the way that you have come.”
10 Saboda haka ya ɗauki wata hanya, bai kuwa koma ta hanyar da ya zo Betel ba.
And he goes on in another way, and has not turned back in the way in which he came in to Beth-El.
11 To, fa, akwai wani tsohon annabi yana zama a Betel, wanda’ya’yansa suka zo suka faɗa masa dukan abin da mutumin Allah ya yi a can, a ranar. Suka kuma faɗa wa mahaifinsu abin da ya faɗa wa sarki.
And a certain aged prophet is dwelling in Beth-El, and his son comes and recounts to him every deed that the man of God has done today in Beth-El, the words that he has spoken to the king—indeed, they recount them to their father.
12 Mahaifinsu ya tambaye su ya ce, “Wace hanya ce ya bi?” Sai’ya’yansa suka nuna masa hanyar da mutumin Allah daga Yahuda ya bi.
And their father says to them, “Where [is] this—the way he has gone?” And his sons see the way that the man of God who came from Judah has gone.
13 Sai ya ce wa’ya’yansa, “Ku yi wa jakina shimfiɗa.” Da suka yi wa jakin shimfiɗa, sai ya hau.
And he says to his sons, “Saddle the donkey for me,” and they saddle the donkey for him, and he rides on it,
14 Ya bi bayan mutumin Allah. Ya same shi yana zama a ƙarƙashin itace oak, sai ya tambaye shi ya ce, “Kai ne mutumin Allah wanda ya zo daga Yahuda?” Ya amsa, “Ni ne.”
and goes after the man of God, and finds him sitting under the oak, and says to him, “Are you the man of God who has come from Judah?” And he says, “I [am].”
15 Saboda haka annabin ya ce masa, “Zo gida tare da ni ka ci abinci.”
And he says to him, “Come with me to the house and eat bread.”
16 Mutumin Allah ya ce, “Ba zan koma tare da kai ba, ko in ci abinci, ko in sha ruwa tare da kai a can ba.
And he says, “I am not able to return with you, and to go in with you, nor do I eat bread or drink water with you in this place,
17 An faɗa mini ta wurin maganar Ubangiji, ‘Kada ka ci abinci, ko ka sha ruwa a can, ko ka koma ta hanyar da ka zo.’”
for [there is] a word to me by the word of YHWH, You do not eat bread nor drink water there [and] you do not return to go in the way in which you came.”
18 Sai annabin ya amsa, “Ni ma annabi ne, kamar ka. Kuma mala’ika ya ce mini ta wurin kalmar Ubangiji, ‘Dawo da shi zuwa gidanka saboda yă ci abinci, yă kuma sha ruwa.’” (Amma yana masa ƙarya ne.)
And he says to him, “I [am] also a prophet like you, and a messenger spoke to me by the word of YHWH, saying, Bring him back with you to your house, and he eats bread and drinks water.” He has lied to him.
19 Sai mutumin Allah ya koma tare da shi ya kuma ci ya sha a gidansa.
And he turns back with him, and eats bread in his house, and drinks water.
20 Yayinda suke zaune a teburi, sai maganar Ubangiji ta zo wa tsohon annabin da ya dawo da mutumin Allah.
And it comes to pass—they are sitting at the table—and [there] is a word of YHWH to the prophet who brought him back,
21 Sai tsohon annabin ya tā da murya wa mutumin Allah wanda ya zo daga Yahuda, “Ga abin da Ubangiji ya ce, ‘Ka ƙazantar da maganar Ubangiji, ba ka kuma kiyaye umarnin Ubangiji Allahnka ba.
and he calls to the man of God who came from Judah, saying, “Thus said YHWH: Because that you have provoked the mouth of YHWH, and have not kept the command that your God YHWH charged you,
22 Ka dawo ka ci abinci, ka kuma sha ruwa a wurin da na faɗa maka kada ka ci, ko ka sha. Saboda haka ba za a binne jikinka a kabarin kakanninka ba.’”
and turn back and eat bread and drink water in the place of which He said to you, You do not eat bread nor drink water—your carcass does not come into the burying-place of your fathers.”
23 Sa’ad da mutumin Allah ya gama ci da sha, sai annabin da ya dawo da shi ya yi wa jakin mutumin Allah shimfiɗa.
And it comes to pass, after his eating bread, and after his drinking, that he saddles the donkey for him, for the prophet whom he had brought back,
24 Yayinda yake kan hanyarsa, sai wani zaki ya sadu da shi ya kashe shi, aka kuma jefar da jikinsa a kan hanya, jakin da zakin suka tsaya kusa da gawar.
and he goes, and a lion finds him in the way, and puts him to death, and his carcass is cast in the way, and the donkey is standing near it, and the lion is standing near the carcass.
25 Waɗansu mutane masu wucewa suka ga an yar da gawar a can, zaki yana tsaye kusa da gawar, sai suka tafi suka ba da labarin a birni inda tsohon annabin nan yake zama.
And behold, men are passing by, and see the carcass cast in the way, and the lion standing near the carcass, and they come and speak [of it] in the city in which the old prophet is dwelling.
26 Sa’ad da annabin da ya dawo da mutumin Allah ya ji, sai ya ce, “Mutumin Allah ne, wanda ya ƙazantar da maganar Ubangiji. Ubangiji ya bashe shi ga zaki, wanda ya yayyage shi ya kuma kashe shi, kamar yadda maganar Ubangiji ta gargaɗe shi.”
And the prophet who brought him back out of the way hears and says, “It [is] the man of God who provoked the mouth of YHWH, and YHWH gives him to the lion, and it destroys him, and puts him to death, according to the word of YHWH that he spoke to him.”
27 Sai annabin ya ce wa’ya’yansa, “Ku yi wa jakina shimfiɗa.” Sai suka yi.
And he speaks to his sons saying, “Saddle the donkey for me,” and they saddle [it].
28 Sai ya fita ya sami an jefar da gawar a hanya, jakin da zakin suna tsaye kusa da shi. Zakin bai ci gawar ko yă yayyage jakin ba.
And he goes and finds his carcass cast in the way, and the donkey and the lion are standing near the carcass—the lion has not eaten the carcass nor destroyed the donkey.
29 Saboda haka annabin ya ɗauki gawar mutumin Allah, ya shimfiɗa shi a kan jaki, ya koma da shi cikin birninsa don yă yi makokinsa yă kuma binne shi.
And the prophet takes up the carcass of the man of God, and places it on the donkey, and brings it back, and the old prophet comes to the city to mourn and to bury him,
30 Sai ya kwantar da gawar a kabarinsa, suka yi makoki a kansa, ya kuma ce, “Ayya, abokina!”
and he places his carcass in his own grave, and they mourn for him, “Oh, my brother!”
31 Bayan an binne shi, sai ya ce wa’ya’yansa, “Sa’ad da na mutu, ku binne ni a kabarin da aka binne mutumin Allah; ku kwantar da ƙasusuwana kusa da ƙasusuwansa.
And it comes to pass, after his burying him, that he speaks to his sons, saying, “At my death—you have buried me in the burying-place in which the man of God is buried; place my bones near his bones;
32 Gama annabcin da ya yi ta maganar Ubangiji gāba da bagaden da yake cikin Betel da kuma wuraren sujada a tuddan da suke a biranen Samariya, ba shakka zai cika.”
for the word certainly comes to pass that he called by the word of YHWH concerning the altar which [is in] Beth-El, and concerning all the houses of the high places that [are] in cities of Samaria.”
33 Har ma bayan wannan, Yerobowam bai canja daga mugayen hanyoyinsa ba, amma ya ƙara naɗa firistoci domin masujadai da suke kan tuddai daga kowane irin mutane. Duk wanda ya so yă zama firist sai yă naɗa shi don aiki a masujadai da suke kan tuddai.
After this thing Jeroboam has not turned from his evil way, and turns back, and makes priests of high places from the extremities of the people; he who is desirous—he consecrates his hand, and he is of the priests of the high places.
34 Wannan ne zunubin gidan Yerobowam da ya kai ga fāɗuwarsa da kuma hallakarsa daga fuskar duniya.
And in this thing is the sin of the house of Jeroboam, even to cut [it] off, and to destroy [it] from off the face of the ground.
