1 Sarakuna 22
1 Aka yi shekaru uku ba a yi yaƙi tsakanin Aram da Isra’ila ba.
They continued three years without war between Aram and Israel.
2 Amma a shekara ta uku, Yehoshafat sarkin Yahuda ya gangara don yă ga sarki Isra’ila.
It happened in the third year, that Jehoshaphat the king of Judah came down to the king of Israel.
3 Sarkin Isra’ila ya ce wa shugabanninsa, “Ba ku san cewa Ramot Gileyad namu ne ba, duk da haka ba mu yi kome ba don mu sāke karɓanta daga sarkin Aram?”
The king of Israel said to his servants, "You know that Ramoth Gilead is ours, and we are still, and do not take it out of the hand of the king of Aram?"
4 Saboda haka ya tambayi Yehoshafat, ya ce, “Za ka tafi tare da ni don in yi yaƙi da Ramot Gileyad?” Yehoshafat ya amsa wa sarkin Isra’ila, ya ce, “Ni ma kamar ka ne, mutanena kuwa kamar mutanenka, dawakaina kamar dawakanka.”
He said to Jehoshaphat, "Will you go with me to battle to Ramoth Gilead?" Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, "I am as you are, my people as your people, my horses as your horses."
5 Amma Yehoshafat ya ce wa sarkin Isra’ila, “Da farko mu nemi nufin Ubangiji.”
Jehoshaphat said to the king of Israel, "Please inquire first for the word of Jehovah."
6 Saboda haka sarkin Isra’ila ya tattara annabawa, kamar ɗari huɗu, ya tambaye su, “In kai yaƙi a kan Ramot Gileyad, ko kada in kai?” Suka amsa, “Ka tafi, gama Ubangiji zai ba ka ita a hannunka.”
Then the king of Israel gathered the prophets together, about four hundred men, and said to them, "Shall I go against Ramoth Gilead to battle, or shall I refrain?" They said, "Go up; for Jehovah will deliver it into the hand of the king."
7 Amma Yehoshafat ya yi tambaya, ya ce, “Babu wani annabin Ubangiji a nan da za mu tambaya?”
But Jehoshaphat said, "Isn't there here a prophet of Jehovah, that we may inquire of him?"
8 Sarkin Isra’ila ya amsa wa Yehoshafat, ya ce, “Akwai mutum guda har yanzu wanda ta wurinsa za mu iya nemi nufin Ubangiji, amma na ƙi jininsa domin bai taɓa yin annabci wani abu mai kyau game da ni ba, sai dai mummuna kullum. Shi ne Mikahiya ɗan Imla.” Yehoshafat ya ce, “Kada sarki ya ce haka.”
The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, "There is yet one man by whom we may inquire of Jehovah, Micaiah the son of Imlah; but I hate him; for he does not prophesy good concerning me, but evil." Jehoshaphat said, "Do not let the king say so."
9 Saboda haka sarkin Isra’ila ya kira ɗaya daga cikin shugabanninsa ya ce, “Kawo Mikahiya ɗan Imla nan take.”
Then the king of Israel called an officer, and said, "Quickly get Micaiah the son of Imlah."
10 Saye da rigunansu na sarauta, sarkin Isra’ila da Yehoshafat sarkin Yahuda suna zama a kujerun sarautarsu a masussuka ta mashigin ƙofar Samariya, tare da dukan annabawa suna ta annabci a gabansu.
Now the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah were sitting each on his throne, arrayed in their robes, in an open place at the entrance of the gate of Samaria; and all the prophets were prophesying before them.
11 Zedekiya ɗan Kena’ana kuwa ya yi ƙahonin ƙarfe ya kuma furta, “Ga abin da Ubangiji ya ce, ‘Da waɗannan za ka tunkuyi Arameyawa har su hallaka.’”
Zedekiah the son of Kenaanah made him horns of iron, and said, "Thus says Jehovah, 'With these you shall push the Arameans, until they are consumed.'"
12 Dukan sauran annabawan suka yi annabci iri abu ɗaya. Suka ce, “Ka yaƙi Ramot Gileyad, ka kuma yi nasara, gama Ubangiji zai ba da ita cikin hannun sarki.”
All the prophets prophesied so, saying, "Go up to Ramoth Gilead, and prosper; for Jehovah will deliver it into the hand of the king."
13 Ɗan aikan da ya je yă kawo Mikahiya, ya ce masa, “Duba, sauran annabawa suna maganar nasara wa sarki, sai ka ce mutum guda. Bari maganarka tă yarda da tasu, ka kuma yi maganar alheri.”
The messenger who went to call Micaiah spoke to him, saying, "See now, the prophets declare good to the king with one mouth. Please let your word be like the word of one of them, and speak good."
14 Amma Mikahiya ya ce, “Na rantse da Ubangiji mai rai, zan faɗa masa kawai abin da Ubangiji ya faɗa mini.”
Micaiah said, "As Jehovah lives, what Jehovah says to me, that I will speak."
15 Da suka kai, sai sarki ya tambaye shi, ya ce, “Mikahiya, mu kai yaƙi a kan Ramot Gileyad, ko kada mu kai?” Ya amsa ya ce, “Yaƙe ta, za ka kuwa yi nasara, gama Ubangiji zai ba da ita cikin hannun sarki.”
When he had come to the king, the king said to him, "Micaiah, shall we go to Ramoth Gilead to battle, or shall we forbear?" He answered him, "Go up and prosper; and Jehovah will deliver it into the hand of the king."
16 Sai sarki ya ce masa, “Sau nawa ne zan sa ka rantse cewa ba za ka faɗa mini kome ba sai dai gaskiya a cikin sunan Ubangiji?”
The king said to him, "How many times do I have to adjure you that you speak to me nothing but the truth in the name of Jehovah?"
17 Sa’an nan Mikahiya ya amsa, “Na ga dukan Isra’ila a warwatse a kan tuddai kamar tumakin da ba su da makiyayi, kuma Ubangiji ya ce, ‘Waɗannan mutane ba su da maigida. Bari kowa yă tafi gida cikin salama.’”
He said, "I saw all Israel scattered on the mountains, as sheep that have no shepherd. Jehovah said, 'These have no master. Let them each return to his house in peace.'"
18 Sai sarkin Isra’ila ya ce wa Yehoshafat, “Ban faɗa maka cewa bai taɓa yin annabci wani abu mai kyau game da ni, sai mummuna kawai ba?”
The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, "Did I not tell you that he would not prophesy good concerning me, but evil?"
19 Mikahiya ya ci gaba, “Saboda haka ka ji maganar Ubangiji. I, na ga Ubangiji zaune a kursiyinsa tare da dukan rundunar sama tsaye kewaye da shi a dama da hagunsa.
Micaiah said, "Therefore hear the word of Jehovah. I saw Jehovah sitting on his throne, and all the army of heaven standing by him on his right hand and on his left.
20 Kuma Ubangiji ya ce, ‘Wa zai ruɗi Ahab zuwa yaƙi da Ramot Gileyad, yă kuma kai shi mutuwarsa a can?’ “Wani ya ce wannan, wani ya ce wancan.
Jehovah said, 'Who shall entice Ahab, that he may go up and fall at Ramoth Gilead?' One said one thing; and another said another.
21 A ƙarshe, wani ruhu ya zo gaba, ya tsaya a gaban Ubangiji ya ce, ‘Zan ruɗe shi.’
A spirit came out and stood before Jehovah, and said, 'I will entice him.'
22 “Ubangiji ya yi tambaya ‘Ta wace hanya?’ Ya ce, “‘Zan tafi in zama ruhun ƙarya a bakunan dukan annabawansa.’ “Ubangiji ya ce, ‘Za ka yi nasara a ruɗinsa. Ka tafi, ka yi haka.’
Jehovah said to him, 'How?' He said, 'I will go out and will be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets.' He said, 'You will entice him, and will also prevail. Go out and do so.'
23 “Saboda haka yanzu Ubangiji ya sa ruhun ƙarya a bakunan dukan annabawanka. Ubangiji ya zartar maka da masifa.”
Now therefore, look, Jehovah has put a lying spirit in the mouth of all these your prophets; and Jehovah has pronounced disaster against you."
24 Sai Zedekiya ɗan Kena’ana ya hau ya mari Mikahiya a fuska. Ya yi tambaya, “A wace hanya ce ruhu daga Ubangiji ya bar ni ya yi maka magana?”
Then Zedekiah the son of Kenaanah came near, and struck Micaiah on the cheek, and said, "Which way did the Spirit of Jehovah go from me to speak to you?"
25 Mikahiya ya amsa, “Za ka gane a ranar da ka je ka ɓuya a ciki cikin ɗaki.”
Micaiah said, "Look, you will see on that day, when you go into an inner room to hide yourself."
26 Sa’an nan sarkin Isra’ila ya umarta, “Ku kama Mikahiya, ku kai shi wurin Amon, shugaban birnin, da wurin Yowash ɗan sarki.
The king of Israel said, "Take Micaiah, and carry him back to Amon the governor of the city, and to Joash the king's son.
27 Ku ce ga abin da sarki ya ce, ‘Ku sa wannan mutum a kurkuku, kuma kada ku ba shi wani abu sai dai burodi da ruwa, sai na dawo lafiya.’”
Say, 'Thus says the king, "Put this fellow in the prison, and feed him with bread of affliction and with water of affliction, until I come in peace."'"
28 Mikahiya ya furta, “Idan har ka dawo lafiya, to, Ubangiji bai yi magana ta wurina ba.” Ya kuma ƙara da cewa, “Ku lura da maganata, dukanku mutane!”
Micaiah said, "If you return at all in peace, Jehovah has not spoken by me." He said, "Listen, all you people."
29 Sai sarkin Isra’ila da Yehoshafat sarkin Yahuda suka haura zuwa Ramot Gileyad.
So the king of Israel and Jehoshaphat the king of Judah went up to Ramoth Gilead.
30 Sarkin Isra’ila ya ce wa Yehoshafat, “Zan ɓad da kama in shiga wurin yaƙi, amma ka sa kayan sarautarka.” Saboda haka sarkin Isra’ila ya ɓad da kama, ya shiga cikin yaƙi.
The king of Israel said to Jehoshaphat, "I will disguise myself, and go into the battle; but you put on your robes." The king of Israel disguised himself, and went into the battle.
31 Sarkin Aram kuwa ya umarci shugabanni kekunan yaƙinsa talatin da biyu, ya ce, “Kada ku yaƙe kowa, ƙarami ko babba, sai dai sarkin Isra’ila.”
Now the king of Aram had commanded the thirty-two captains of his chariots, saying, Fight neither with small nor great, except only with the king of Israel.
32 Sa’ad da shugabannin kekunan yaƙin suka ga Yehoshafat, suka yi tsammani, suka ce, “Tabbatacce wannan shi ne sarkin Isra’ila.” Saboda haka suka juye don su yaƙe shi, amma sa’ad da Yehoshafat ya yi ihu,
It happened, when the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, that they said, "Surely that is the king of Israel." and they turned aside to fight against him. Jehoshaphat cried out.
33 sai shugabannin kekunan yaƙin suka ga ashe ba sarkin Isra’ila ba ne, sai suka daina binsa.
It happened, when the captains of the chariots saw that it was not the king of Israel, that they turned back from pursuing him.
34 Amma wani ya ja bakansa kawai ya bugi Ahab sarkin Isra’ila a tsakanin sassan kayan yaƙinsa. Sai sarki ya ce wa mahayin keken yaƙinsa, “Juye, ka fitar da ni daga yaƙin. An ji mini rauni.”
A certain man drew his bow at random, and struck the king of Israel between the joints of the armor. Therefore he said to the driver of his chariot, "Turn your hand, and carry me out of the battle; for I am severely wounded."
35 Dukan yini aka yi ta yaƙi, aka kuma riƙe sarki a keken yaƙinsa yana fuskanci Arameyawa. Jini daga mikinsa ya yi ta zuba a ƙasan keken yaƙin, a wannan yamma kuwa ya mutu.
The battle increased that day. The king was propped up in his chariot facing the Arameans, and died at evening. The blood ran out of the wound into the bottom of the chariot.
36 Da rana tana fāɗuwa, sai kuka ta bazu cikin mayaƙa, “Kowane mutum ya tafi garinsu; kowa ya tafi ƙasarsa!”
A cry went throughout the army about the going down of the sun, saying, "Every man to his city, and every man to his country."
37 Sai sarki ya mutu, aka kuwa kawo shi Samariya, aka binne shi a can.
So the king died, and was brought to Samaria; and they buried the king in Samaria.
38 Suka wanke keken yaƙi a tafki, a Samariya (inda karuwai suke wanka), sai karnuka suka lashe jininsa, kamar yadda maganar Ubangiji ta furta.
They washed the chariot by the pool of Samaria; and the dogs licked up his blood where the prostitutes washed themselves; according to the word of Jehovah which he spoke.
39 Game da sauran ayyukan mulkin Ahab, haɗe da dukan abin da ya yi, da fadan da ya gina ya kuma shimfiɗa da hauren giwa, da biranen da ya gina, duk a rubuce suke a cikin littafin tarihin sarakunan Isra’ila.
Now the rest of the acts of Ahab, and all that he did, and the ivory house which he built, and all the cities that he built, aren't they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
40 Ahab ya huta da kakanninsa. Ahaziya ɗansa ya gāje shi a matsayin sarki.
So Ahab slept with his fathers; and Ahaziah his son reigned in his place.
41 Yehoshafat ɗan Asa ya zama sarkin Yahuda a shekara ta huɗu ta Ahab sarkin Isra’ila.
Jehoshaphat the son of Asa began to reign over Judah in the fourth year of Ahab king of Israel.
42 Yehoshafat yana da shekara talatin da biyar sa’ad da ya zama sarki, ya kuma yi mulki a Urushalima shekaru ashirin da biyar. Sunan mahaifiyarsa, Azuba’yar Shilhi.
Jehoshaphat was thirty-five years old when he began to reign; and he reigned twenty-five years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Azubah the daughter of Shilhi.
43 A cikin kome ya yi tafiya a hanyoyin mahaifinsa Asa, bai kuma kauce daga gare su ba; ya yi abin da yake daidai a gaban Ubangiji. Amma bai rurrushe masujadai da suke kan tuddai ba, mutane kuwa suka ci gaba da miƙa hadayu suna kuma ƙone turare a can.
He walked in all the way of Asa his father; He did not turn aside from it, doing that which was right in the eyes of Jehovah: however the high places were not taken away; the people still sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places.
44 Yehoshafat kuma ya zauna lafiya da sarkin Isra’ila.
Jehoshaphat made peace with the king of Israel.
45 Game da sauran ayyukan mulkin Yehoshafat da abubuwan da ya yi, da kuma yaƙe-yaƙensa, duk a rubuce suke a cikin littafin tarihin sarakunan Yahuda.
Now the rest of the acts of Jehoshaphat, and his might that he showed, and how he warred, aren't they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
46 Ya kawar da karuwai maza na masujadai da suke kan tuddai waɗanda suka rage tun mulkin mahaifinsa Asa.
The remnant of the male temple prostitutes, that remained in the days of his father Asa, he put away out of the land.
47 Babu sarki a lokacin Edom, saboda haka sai mataimaki ya yi mulki.
There was no king in Edom: a deputy was king.
48 To, Yehoshafat ya gina jerin jiragen ruwan kasuwanci don su je Ofir saboda zinariya, amma ba su yi tafiya ba, gama sun farfashe a Eziyon Geber.
Jehoshaphat made ships of Tarshish to go to Ophir for gold: but they did not go; for the ships were broken at Ezion Geber.
49 A lokacin Ahaziya ɗan Ahab ya ce wa Yehoshafat, “Bari mutanena su tafi tare da mutanenka,” amma Yehoshafat ya ƙi.
Then Ahaziah the son of Ahab said to Jehoshaphat, "Let my servants go with your servants in the ships." But Jehoshaphat would not.
50 Yehoshafat kuwa ya huta tare da kakanninsa, aka kuma binne shi tare da su a birnin Dawuda kakansa. Sai Yehoram ɗansa ya gāje shi.
Jehoshaphat slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the City of David his father; Jehoram his son reigned in his place.
51 Ahaziya ɗan Ahab ya zama sarkin Isra’ila a Samariya a shekara ta goma sha bakwai ta Yehoshafat sarkin Yahuda, ya kuma yi mulki a bisa Isra’ila shekaru biyu.
Ahaziah the son of Ahab began to reign over Israel in Samaria in the seventeenth year of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, and he reigned two years over Israel.
52 Ya aikata mugunta a gaban Ubangiji, domin ya yi tafiya a hanyoyin mahaifinsa da na mahaifiyarsa, da kuma a hanyoyin Yerobowam ɗan Nebat, wanda ya sa Isra’ila suka yi zunubi.
He did that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah, and walked in the way of his father, and in the way of his mother, and in the way of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, in which he made Israel to sin.
53 Ya bauta, ya kuma yi wa Ba’al sujada, ya tsokane Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila yă yi fushi, kamar yadda mahaifinsa ya yi.
He served Baal, and worshiped him, and provoked to anger Jehovah, the God of Israel, according to all that his father had done.
